On Wednesday afternoon the case or Jno. K Patterson vs, Messrs. btallniKS iiros. was taken up and resulted in Mr. Patterson's favor. There being no more cases on the docket ready for trial th court adjourned sine die. Ever case on the docket was called and there were reasons it soeme for the continuance of so many of them on' account of the ab sence of important witnesses, in some cases the absence of one of the parties of the suit, and in other cases the necessary ab sence of the attorneys. The following are the names of those who have been taken to the chaingang during the court Simon Kestler, Tom MeClure George Harris, Mack Caldwell Lige Hall, Babe Christian, Earl Fourney, Rob Black, Bon More head, Ed. Bradshaw, and Jas Tucker. Amzi Cruse has also been sent there by the town. Jim Harris Free Again. Our readers will remember tho name of Jim Hairis, or Jiu Coon, the negro who to ?vade tho officers clitned into a chimney ind was undetected. All officers, especially, remember him and know well what a trouble m wa s to capture. Last , Tuesday h. was released from our chain gang after serving a twolve month's sentence. This no etc has been sentenced to the chain gang four times. He has served three sentences on Mecklenburg's chain gang and every time made his escape and was recaptured, one time after several months. The superin tendon t of tho Mecklenburg chain gang says that this negro is the mealiest negro he has ever had on his force. He protends to be ood on tho chain gang but will do anything to deceive the guards and will run if ho has the least chance. He has, while on our gang, been caught with his chain partly cut. Inthocourt house he examines tho State witnesses most thoroughly aud is by no means deficient. But the negro is now free again from the chain gang and will probably add to the list of crimes again. Hag Rented the Biirkhcnd House. Mr. S W Williams, the pro prietor of the now drug store which opens up here in the corner liitaker building, nas rented Mrs. Burkhead's resi dence on West Depot street where the families of Messrs.

If the Colored Man Was Nut a Yoler .Very Few People Would Favor (living Him the Ballot. The Chatham Record says: "If negro suffrage was a new ques tion in this State very few per sons would fovor it. That is, if ignorant negroes had not hereto fore voted in North Carolina there would be very few persons iu favor ot now giving them the right to vote. If they had not boon allowed to vote heretofore very few persons would now be willing to give them that right. If he had not heretofore been allowed to vote very few persons would think that the prosperity and best interests of North Carolina would be best pro moted by now giving them tho right to have a vote and voico in its government. "Does any intelligent and un prejudiced man doubt this? Doos any unprejudiced and intelligent man believe that the white men of North Carolina would now vote to enfranchise tho ignorant negroes of this State if they had not heretofore boon enfran chised? "Why then should they be allowed to continue to vote? Has the experience of the past 32 years proved their Illness for the proper exercises of the right to vote? "How and by whom was that right givbn to thein? Our oldor citizens well and bitterly remem ber how that was dono. They remember and will never forgot nor forgive how our poor old State was made a n.ilif;ry dis trict with its commander's head quarters at Charleston, and how a protended election was held by our military ruler's (Gen. Can- by appointees) and tho returns of that election made to him and the result declared bv him. How, at that election, 20,000 of the best white men of North Carolina were uot allowed to ,-oto. All this is still fresh in tho minds of our old readers, and they can never forget how negro suffrage was forced upon tho South And why was this? Was it for the best interests of the negroes or for the best interests of the South? No, for neither, but only for the purpose of humiliat ing the white people of the South and perpotuating the power of the Republican party! "It should never be forgottou that prior to that time negroes could not vote in any Northern State, where of course they were more intelligent and fewer than in the South? Up to tho time that tho recently emancipated slaves of the South were given tho ight tovote negro suffrage had been defeated in every Northern State, whenovor an election on that question had been held. If North Carolina should now re fuse to allow ignorant negroes to vote we would only be doing what every Northern State had done prior to 1807. "And why should we not? Has the experience of the past 32 years showed that our State can bo better governed with ignorant egroes voting? Lot ever good itiaun seriously consider this uestiou, aud answer m August In K'ther or uot he really believes hat our Stale can bo better overned with or without the otes of ignorant negroos." he News in Stanly. We take the following from the ntorpriso: Mr. J T Shepherd is in pos ,ssion of a deed for acres of land lying some six miles east of here, made over to hi in by Gov ernor Russell a few days ago. Arrangements have been per fected to sink an artesian well uoar the Wiscassettj mill. A gentleman is here to do the work, and is waiting for his machinery to arrive. Messrs. Parks & Foden have virtually gono through a second burning. Since figuring up their entire loss they find that it sums up a thousand more than was ex pected. Saturday night about midnight tho waste house at tho cotton mill was consumed by fire. It is thought to bo the work of an in cendiary. Taken to the Penitentiary. Mr. Caleb Robinson, who now becomes our jailer, has taken Wash Duan, tho negro who was found guilty .of shooting Mr. Dolph Mauney, to Raleigh w here ho goes iu tho penitentiary to servo a sentence of fif toon years, THE PLANS SUBMITTED. Tho Diagrams of the Find I'rest)) terian Church as It Will lie In Cane the Congregation So Decides. Mr. Jno. A Sims has in his office at tho Litaker building the proposed plans of the first Pres byterian church. Their plans were only made for the approval and criticism of tho members, If the congregation decides on these plans there will be a great change made and it will be a handsomo structure with its four columns at the front with and the frontwallsof gray pressed brick. The plans show that an addi tional building will be built on one side which will be usod for the Sunday school room. This will be connected by a movablo partition. The dimensions of the additional room will be 3-1 by 54 feet and will seat about 300 poople. The stops leading into the church will begin at the pave ment. The present vestibule will be torn out, which will in crease the size of tho church on tho inside, but anothor vestibule will bo . made. Tho present steple will bo torn down and towers will reach from each side. There will be several other changes but none so marked as these mentionod. Plans are also boing arranged for tho "parsonage. The cost of the parsonage will bo aboul $2,000 while the proposed re modelling of the church will amount to not more than if 7,000. I'hotog for tho New History. In the book to bo issued at no distant day by act of the legisla tare giving tho brief history of every regiment or troop thai North Carolina furnishod in th Confederate cause it is desired to have picture liknesses along with tho sketches. Tho follow ing instruction to the writers of the sketches may be interesting to those concerned. Raleigh, N. C, Jan. 11, 1900. Tho selection and collection of photos for each command is left to its historian. Tho more the better, whether officers or not, if good men, and photos were taken in 18G1-5. Take two months, if necessary, to gather them up. When you have in hand all you propose to use, label care fully each with name, rank and regiment, and send (with the money) in ono lot by express prepaid to Maj. C L Pattern, Uni versity Pub. Co. New York City unless you prefer some other houso with directions to return originals direct to you, after using, and you will distribute to owners. Tins will give assur anco against loss, without which you will fail to get some valuable photos; and will also guarantee against misnaming or misplacing any engraving in the printed volumes. The cuts are not very large and will be grouped four or six to the page and placed in the sketch to which they belong. If desired, proof of your sketc will be sent you by printer to re vise. Fraternally yours, Walter Clark. It is well enough to note that while the state bears the expense of material and mechanical work in the book, the historians got up tho sketches as a work of love and tho expenses of the cut must bo born by those wanting the photos inserted. Wo gat her that the expenses will be about 2.."0 but the historians can answer more definitely. Make a Note of This. It will bo woll to remember that provided the constitutional amendment passes every person before casting his ballot must present his tax receipt shoving that it was issued to him before the first of March. Bear this in mind. Mr. Ilacliinaii Harkey Married. We learn that Mr. Bachman Harkey, a former Cabarrus young man, whose home was at Mt.

Tho agony is over with Brig ham H Roberts, and he can now go homo to his three wives, his twins and all the restof his plural marriage progeny. The vote was taken Thursday and resulted in 208 members favoring tho ma jority report of committee, that is agaiust allowing him to take the oath of office. There were strong grounds presented in tho discussion fa voring the minority report which favored allowing Roberts to take the oath of office as member elect from Utah, but to then expel him from the body on account of his polygamy. The- entire commit tee, however, were opposed to allowing him to remain in the Houso. The minority report was voted against by 244, and favored by 81. The majority report was adopted by a vote of 2G8 to 50. We note Mr. Kluttz's vote in the affirmative, as are all the North Carolina representatives save Linney and Bellamy, not re corded, and Kitchen, who voted in tho negative. From Our Eustern Neighbor.
