This will carry with it the privilege of your friends writing short letters in your behalf. We would like to ask the Kiigle. the nfliciul nrgun of the Court llo'ise King and theel.-iini speculators of the county, it it is not a fact that about the time the legisla ture of l'.0i met, there was a conference held ill ihe niliec of I'ritclmrd and Kollins, between Senator I'ritcliard, T.

And if it is not a fact that T S Rollins, attorney for the Koard.of Commissioners did not have drawn upon his typewriter, a petition to the (Suneral Assembly asking for such tax. which W. M. English and V. 8. Hice, who make a majority of the ioard of Couuty Commissioners' adopted' in onen session, copies of which petition was forwarded to the representative of .Madison county and tho senators ot tins district? And if i is not n fact that a bill wis prepared in almost the exact tern's of the pc ition and if a copy of the same was pot introduced in the Ixiwer House by the rcprcsenlalive of Madison county, which afterwards became a l.iw 1 Another Falsehood 'Now, a6 to the lost abstract which the editor seems so familiar with and who has asked so often to s-e nnd which cannot brt found, we admit hangs a tale. 10 making inquiry about this lost abstract wo learn that upon a Certain day Attorney Zachary called at the register'of deeds office and akcd to see that al stract. Ho was given the document to ex amine. The following day Mr. Znchary called aj(aih to see Ihe "aforcsai i document and upon Mr. Duvis looking for it failed to find it and asked Mr. Zachary what he did with it the day before, but Mr. Zachary disclaimed all knowledge of it, but-the last time the register of deeds saw that Abstract it was in the hauda of Mr. Zachary." The Eagle isuot charging that Mr. Zachary.xtracted tlmt abalract, it ouly recrte3 the .incident as il oc cuired nntf was related to the writer," Esgle. AH that I have to say ab.ut the above statement ia. that every syllable and sentence of, the same which insinuates ' or was intended to insinuate that I," at auflime ever took the abstriicl referred to out of the office ot register 'of deeds or misplactd " tho gamojta that- oflice U absolutely false. ; -It ia trne that I examined that abstract mora than one time in the office of regiitor of deed. It is alo true that I discovered a mis take in the abstract in favor of the ' tax collector ; f more than fourteen hundred, dollars .1 dis covered the mistake after the first Monday in September and after Ibe tax collector had gien the re ceipt for the next tax list, as pub lished in the Eagle, which he could not do nntil he had made final settlement and if . he bad mads final soltlement there was sti'l over fourteen hundred dollars left in his hands after the final settlement, when tLe mistake was discoveeed. i)t the Eagle tries o male it ap pear that lb tax collector did nut receive'the tax lit'at that time. If d;'l lint Tvic-! t' f f iv I:-t al that time why did he give a re ceipt for it? Wijyf.ite Eagle au s er that question ? I discovered the mistake in the abstract, I then made the charge in ths campaign. It created a con siderable elir in politics and the Eagls now admits the mistake was made as I charged it. And why I should have destroyed,' misplaced or abstracted all the proof of the cnar;e mat 1 was making is a question beyond the comprehen sion of man. I did call to see -4 lie abstract just before the election; and I was in formed by Mr. Davn, the register 1 of deeds, that it had been mis I p'aced iy some one and th it he had hunted for it, Time and again and that he could not find it. Ho i said that so many people had been looking at it that 'lie could not tell who had it last, but this was more than two wi-eks after I had seen it before. The above is a true and correct statement- of tho facts as they occurred. V. W. ZACHARY. 'Looking over the roconls nnd the published statement of the in debtedness of, Madison county, compiled by Mr. Van U. Davis, rpgistci' of deeds., we fWl, out of the $70,000.00 indebtedness $50, 000.00 in round numbers are held by democrats. "Eagle. We print halof two items of the indebtedness out of the stat- ment referred tj which proves the utter falsity of the statement. Geo. H Smaihers receiver of (he V. N. ('. B.mk ?20,Co5 10 J. C. Pritchard $16,275.40 It is true that a pood niny small claims are in the ban Is of democrats and soiiip. d-mocrats have some consider iblo amounts of tho indebtedness but ibat only proves the charge that certain members of the Court House Ring could get their, claims paid oil while democrats -who did not be long to the ring had to bold theirs and have them yet. At the judicial convention of the loth judicial district held in Ashe yille on July the 12th, the demo cats nominated V. J.Cocke of Buncombe county for solicitor, on tho 5th ballot.

Sin: I addressed to you an open letter dated September 81st, in v bich 1 asked you. to tell the republicans of North Carolina how many of your relatives yoa have placed irt office since you have oeen ihe leader of our party. You have ignored the question and have continued to lead them tip to the pieounter. W. S Hyams, your brother-in-law, has been appointed Clerk of the Federal Court, at Asheville, N. C. It has-' been an nounced in the press of .this city that Emmet Gudger, a democrat and the eon of a democrat, J. M.

Mr. Pritchard, is . there do young re publican competent to fill this place that ymi must select the son of this man, who his been one of the bitterest of democrats.

Or is it beciaise he is the brother of "Ki" Gudger, another democrat who holds a six thousand do lar office, togelher with bis son, who also draws a fat salary? Mr. Prik-hard, jouare bidding high for the Gudger family. Are th.y worth it? Tell us ill about thete things. In addition to the fur- j mer questions I will now ask you ' another: How is it that all your kinsfolks can pais the Civil Ser vice examination and secure en office and others, who are more worthy get turned down.

County: "In order to insure harmony in the republican c invention for ,he county of Madison, which mods' at Marshall. August 7th, 1002, it :s absolu'ely mcew-ary that every loyal republicbii lias a fair oppor tunity to say wl'O he favors ss cm ilida'es for the various ofriiv s. This havi-ig been Hone, everv r.--publican woi.ld feel ( b'iga cd t stand by those receiving the high est vcte. then, I am conhdent. harmony would prevail and (he grand olu party would swell t majo-ity to lo00. 'I doubt very seriously that Ihe strength of each candidate c n : t a'l be flirly tested by the proposed township primary. My ol jecli"n is this: we have no organ;zat n requiring each township cha: m :i to appoint officers of e!ectii,n ijy w hici the name of each elect r mav be taken and passed upon his ballot property deposited, and only c ne ballot cast by each elector In the proposed plan ot the fo n ship primaty there are no such safe guards, an I any voter full of en thusiasm for his cand da'e can vote n half dozen votes if he wants to. It is this pervertion and pros titution of an electir n yea, r.e may say, a counterfeit election that I object to, and that I b.dieve the fair minded people of ( u. party object to. These new-fangled notions should be received with - great caution . No fair minded mau can object to reason able restrictions and safe-guard.- in order to properly register tho voi e of i be people and keep them from b.-ing the unconscious victim of schemers and tricksters and thus give them good reasons to be dis gruntled at Iheir "wn party. Now this, my fellow citizens, is'what we want to avoid. "This is my solution ol the problem: That the republican party of the good county of Mad' son shall have a real, genuine, county prima-y, nuder the super vision of the Execuiive Committee of the county, and not this hyb id, half breed towuship primary ;h t is so dangerous to our future wtl fare; then, tho man that gets tl e highest number of votes in the en tire coun'y shall be the nominee for the office which he may be a candidate tor. Now, in all fairness, I wish fo say that from a -republican stand point, and to preserve party har mony, that th s is the only just and proper plan. This would prevent a man forcing himself upon. the people, by use of I m heelers and agents when he ia in no sense the choice of a majority of the peop e. It is folly to say that thepope are not abreast of the times.
