5Ir. Price Cenies tlie Charge,
To the editor of the Observer:
Tour Raleigh correspondent had
the following to say in regard to
my speech at High Point. ''The
news had reached here that A. H.
Price, McKiuley elector for State
at large, said in his speech at High
Point that the negroes were bet
ter citizens than the white people
and better laborers." Everybody
personally acquainted with me
knows that such a thought never,
for one moment, could possibly eu
ter niy.-nind, and how such an in- j
ference could be dravn. from nij
remarks I cannot understand, I ;
believe that my political opponents
will bear me out in saying that the
speeches I made in this campaign
could not possibly give offence to
any fairniindcd person, I know
that your Raleigh correspondent
would not intentionally do mo an
injustice, and I will appreciate
it if you will kindly publish this
denial iu your highly esteemed pa
per, I am with geat respect.
Very truly yours.
