W H Chadbourn, the postmaster
and leading Republican, of Wil.

go to Senator Pntchard that wss
tjeing used to create the impression
that negro rule in Wilmington is
greatly exaggerated. The fusion
ipapers made a campaign document
of it. Mr. Chadbourn, however,

Wilmington N. C, Oct. 18, 1898 .
Senator J O Pritchard,
'Dear Sir: Since writing you on

ce8Sitates some further explanation
cn my part in order to put myself
Tight before the community here,
and .also to correct any mistaken
-impression I may haye made in your
injd.

Beats liie Klondike.
Mr. A C Thomas, of Marysville
Tex., has found a more valuable
discovery than has yet been made
in tie Klondike. For years he suf
fered untold aony from consump'
tion, accompanied by hemorrhagee;
and was absolutely cured by Dr.
Kiog's New Discovery for Con
sumption, Coughs and Colds. - He
declares that gold is of little value
in comparison with this marvelous
cure; would have it, even if it cost
a hundied dollars a bottle. Asthma,
Bronchitis and all throat and lung
afiectione are positively uured by
Dr. King's New Discovery for Con
sumption. Trial bottles free at Pb

The i'Hcts Make a Very Different;
. Mr. J N Price said iu his speech
here that negro jarors hbd served in
the jury box in Uuion county under
a Democraiic administration Thai's
where Jim b'ew put the gas again .
We happen to know about that
bueinesd. It war during a court
held by Judge Mcorc, a Republican.
He ordered Mr. Hanan Preslar,
then dfputy sheriff, to call some ne
groes into the jury box. Mr. Pres-
prives the citizen of the right to
challenge a voter on the day of elec
tion, so, all the fraudulently regis
tered voter has to do is to deposit
his ballot for the men in whose in
terest he was imported, and then if
he fears subsequent proceedings,
skip for other parts, as they very
frequently do. The next day after
the last election car - loads of im-
ported negroes left Winston for.
their homes to Danville and other
Virginia points after having done
the work which they were imported
to do. The Democrats of Winston
knew, they had run in on them a
great many Virginia negroes but
there was no way under this beauti
fully manipulated election Jaw of
preventing them from voting.
That's what the fusionis's call a
good, honest election law, a
guarantee of free and fair elections.
It ia a vood law for them because as
it give8them two-thirds of the regis
trars and poll-holders they have
the machinery in their own hands.

Our Peace Commission has been
suffering much delay, from Spanish
diplomacy that seemed about to
ingnore results of the war. Spain
wanted the United States to accept
the sovereignty of Cuba and assume
the debt. A flat refusal has been
given, and she is opening her eyes
to the fact that her contentions will
amount to nothing, and she cannot
long delay the work of the com
Baeklen'ii armca saive.
