JUSTICE HAD ADAMS IS 111 DOLE Story of Joint Debate and How Mr. Adams Mentioned 'Nigger" Once too Much, Hated to Admit he Ran on Ticket with Negro. Greensboro, N. C., Oct. 22. —In the debate at Albemarle in Stanley county week before last between Republican State chairman, Adams and E. J. Jus tice. Judge Adams himself brought up the negro question in politics, not only averting that t:ie Democrat ic party was the negro party, but turn ed to Justice personally and hurled at him with much gusto, as if it had been a crime, the accusation that a nesio in Greensboro had voted for Justice in the Democratic primary in which he was a candidate for nomina tion to the legislature. Of course Republicans present went wild with joy at this argument from Judge Adams, of all men in the world. But Justice had fifteen minutes, and that only. He hadn't been on his feet two minutes before he was receiv ing enthusiastic applause from all over the house as Adams had from a part of it, by calling their attention to the fact that he had not mentioned "nig ger" in all his hours argument, and he had done this deliberately because he knew that if there was a gentleman in the State who deserved to run from that Question it was Judge Adams, or at least, he said he thought this until Judge Adams had made that subject the burden of his speech. Here pan demonium broke loose, for there was none present dull enough not to see how keen was the thrust. "I don't know whether a nigger ever voted for me or not," said Justice; "I know I never asked one to do so, but I do know if it is a crime for a nigger to vote for you, it ought to be a crime for a white man to vote for a nigger ought it Judge?" No an swer from Judge Adams, except a look of absolute wrath and anger as the au dience rose in a shout. Coolly and innocently Justice then enquired: "Since you are so incensed against the colored people's possibly voting for a white man like me Judge, will you tell these people whether you ever voted for a nigger or not." When the applause had subsided Judge Adams white with indignation, waved his two big hands out wildly and de clared. "So help me God, I never did!" And here his Republicans friends, who were evidently painfully scared, raised the roof with a ringing shout of delight. Quietly and innocently Justice again asked: "But you run with a negro Judge, don't you?" "Never," laconically said the State Chairman;*■and the Republican shouts again echoed. "Why Judge didn't you run on a ticket with a negro in Cas well county in 1894, when you were elected clerk?" "I did not," emphatically roared the Judge. "What, didn't you run on the same ticket with a negro named Smith, who was running for the legislature?" in sisted Mr. Justice. "I tell you it was not on the same ticket. He was for the legislature and I was for clerk, and they were sep arate tickets," retorted the judge in desperation, and his friends whooped at. the answer, but when Justice came again, the whole house rose up in tur bulant applause, and after that, Jus tice was not Adams' meat any more during the subsequent proceedings. ' Ran with a nigger and got his vote and never toted fair by voting for the niager," exclaimed Justice. "Told you he never ran on the same ticket with a negro, and 1 made him own he was juggling with words," said Justice, slopping to let the furore subside, then continuing: "A man who would fcol a nigger, would fool you. A man ■who would juggle with words and try to deceive you to your face by saying he never ran on the same ticket, will not hesitate to juggle with figures as I proved to you. Why he is the worst dodger for a fat man that I ever saw," exasperatingly laughed Justice as the crowd rose as one man again in re sponse. This one of many equally exciting incidents where Adams brought trouble on himself by his own reck less statements and charges, is given more fully to emphasize a piece of The Better Way The tissues of the throat are inflamed and irritated; you cough, and there is more irrita tion—more coughing. You take a cough mixture and it eases the irritation—for a while. You take SCOTT'S EMUtSION and it cures the cold. That's what is necessary. It soothes the throat because it reduces the irritation; cures the cold because it drives out the inflammation: builds up the weakened tissues because it nourishes them back to their natural strength.

B. MENZIES. Druggist. MM# 1 intelligence which a report of this oc > currence has brought, A letter re i ceived here from one of the prom i inent gentlemen of Caswell county, ' states that Judge Adams' explanation I at Albemarle that he did not run on a : ticket with a negro because the negro ran as a candidate for the legislature i and he for clerk, which required plac ■ ing their names on separate tickets was not true, even from an anti-jug gling standpoint. He declared that the year Adams was elected clerk of the court in Caswell county, on the same ticket for county officers was 1 the name of Albert Bigelow a big, black negro, for register of deeds. The anomaly of this whole thing con sists in the fact that Republicans themselves, raised the question of "nig ger" and when tne Democrats ac cept the gauge of battle and show them up in their true personal colors, they cry out "persecution," intoler ance," "slander," bulldozing," etc. At the last term of the Federal court the Republican candidate for clerk of the court could not serve as a grand juror because he had not paid his taxes for 1905. and the Republican candidate for sheriff was disqualified for the same reason only the latter, who is wealthy owed for two years and gave a check for over three hun dred dollars, past due taxes, in order to serve even on the petit jury. These things seem strange of Guilford coun ! ty Republicans, who pride themselves 1 as being superior to those any where else in North Carolina. They show that in many respects they are all tar led with the same stick. THREE KILLED BY TRAIN. Train Struck Carriage and Killed Three Persons Instantly.

THE SOUTH'S LAMENT. (By W. L. Austin in Times-Dispatch.) The last link save one is broken, The hand of death is snatching one by one The survivors of the Lost Cause. Gone; And in hushed tones their names are spoken. She who bore alike the joy and sorrow Of our lamented President; she who Gave him cheer as none nut wife can do, Has answered nature's call. On the morrow Earth will see her form no more. Be side Him whom we loved —the Southland's guide And noble leader —will her body rest In beauteous Hollywood. Upon the crest Of the hill beside the James another mound Will mark the spot we hold as sacred ground. As the mother loves the one who's gone, And longs for his return, so we have loved — And longed and hoped; by patriotism moved — To feel that, although far jiway, 'twas known Her heart beat true To her native clime, And her love for the South was sin core, O Davis, the Southland's martyr, we revere Thy name, and memories of thee even time Will but make more sacred. With love We'll lay thy mate to rest; while above The mourning throng thy spirit shall hover Like a benediction. With flowers we'll cover Her last resting-place, then drop a sad tear On thy mound; it covers the South's most dear. STATE FAIR CLOSES. •In Spite of.

Pittsburg, Oct. 20. —According to of ficials of the Carnegie Hero Fund, the most remarkable case that has been investigated by the commission was that of Rufus K. Combs, of Midway, Ky., who was granted a silver medal and $1,500 in cash by tne commission yesterday. Combs saved the life of Ms bitter enemy and political rival, Richard Godson, a lawyer and inven tor. Godson had entered a vault to test a gas-making apparatus and was over come by the fumes. Friends and relatives were afraid to enter the vault. When he declared his intention of going in Combs was pulled back and told that Godson was dead, and that he would surely lose his own life if he attempted to recov er the body. "There may be some life in him," declared Combs as he pulled away and entered the vault. He carried his ene my to the door of the vault and then fell unconscious. Both men recovered and are now the staunchest friends. Asked why he had risked his life for his most bitter enemy, Combs re plied f *'ijccxucc I love a fighter who fights fair, and Godson always did that."
