And Ral eigh aeiu tliy has better and more natural Iiantages for carrying ou a flourishing tobveo market than any other place in the state. At this time, when the price of king ctton, as no longer king, is so low, it lebno.es the business man and farmer alike to lok to something else. The thing for them to look to is tobacco. Did you ever think of the fact that this c ity is situated in the finest tobacco count iy in the world? Is it not very stramje that the business is not more encouraged I A Visitor reporter has seen several gentlemen, bo' li tobacco men and lion who never dealt in it at all, and th-y ail agreed that the far mer in Wake should look to tobacco for his saltation. Now, j'ist a few fads. One thou sand pounds of tobacco brings away and aboie as much money as live times that Hiiiouii! of cotton; a thousand pounds of 1-nf, after being sold and packed, 1-avi a over four times as muck iiio o-v. thai is labor money, in a town as Mini am tint of cotton ; money paid to bb.-r.-rs h-lps a city, it puts uioi. y in cii'ciilaliou : this section is the Iii! si t i!i aceo country in the world, I geiii l.-iuau telling a reporter today that Virginia buyers say the Raleigh ai.ukot has a larger percentage of line vr ippers than any other in the state; ; in one part of Wake county several crops of tobacco were raised that av- eraged. when sold, 27 i ents a pound, ! a hundred pounds, a tiile that one can easily lift, bringing m much as a bale of cotton. . These facts are telling. The local tobacco men say that the business has Icen slowly improving and that the outlook is bright. All Haleigh needs to have a nourishing market is for a few enterprising men to help out. Will they do it? Special Notice!

A SHVHKK ATTACK Which Causes a Stir In Local Republican Circles. The fol.ning is a copy ..f the eirru lar to whn li allusion was ni l-yesterday. It is us id that all those whose i mules are gi.eu as signers deny i;s aut liorship, but that the author is . suspected. Here is the circular: "The republican of Wake county land of North Carolina met iu the county ana stale contention, aud acreed to co-operate with the people's party. All this was done after a con ference with a committee of republi cans from various parts of the state was called and held in Haleigh, July 30, ISO!. Wake county convention was held August 2.", and elected dele gates to the state convention', but not until we had agreed to co-operate with the pec p'e's party. Hut t wo of the dele g:. les s-nt to the state convention proved traitors to the grand old re publican party : viz., K. A. Johnson and K. M. Sorrell. They entered the state contention aud fought against co-operation in the interest of C. Jl Cooke, democratic candidate for con gress; Johnson tried to nominate T. C. Mill., an as a streight republican for congress, but Mr. Milli an being a good republican would not allow the reinocrats to use him in the interest of Cooke. Now after the republican party had agreed to co-ope ration, all the men who fought against co-operation in counties with co-operation tickets were either bought by the Democrats or they worked for them free of charge. Did the democrats pay you anything? Did they promise yon anything, or did you work for that party free of charge? Where did the money come from that paid for circu lars? That paid for'pamphleta ? That paid your buggy hire, and railroad fare? The public can ask the light ning l.e.g nigger democrats whose names you find ou this bill, or you can call on any one of the committee f fifty (")0). We have the names of about 80 persons who worked against the grand old republican party in Wake. They claimed to be republi cans heretofore, but this time they worked with aud for the party that said, "This is a white man's party" ! ! ! So those niggers were tryiug to get white. Let them go, we do not need them. They are not to be trusted any more by the republican party. Who were they? W e only give the names of a few of the leaders in this county aud state at large, viz. E A. Johnson, 1". M. Sorrell, Henry S. Christmas, the Hon. John II. Williamsom, (tha man who has sold more negroes than any speculator iu the state), Johu II. Branch, Chas. N. Williams, Fery Noble, N.. L. Jeffreys, James, E. Hamlin, James E. . O'llara, E. E. Smith,. Jno. 0. Crosby, Geo. T. Wassom, Hey C. Dillard, Thomas P. Deveraux, M. Howes, ,Isaac 11. Smith, W. A. Day, Eeggins Clements, Turner Evans, Wiley 1. Hunter, Ed. Bledsoe, Hill Whitaker and John A. Savage. We had all these names and others at our jollification ineetiug at Stronach's warehouse, Thursday night, Novem ber 29, 1894, but thinking you might torget, tllein we give ttiem now, so that you may lay them away for tin future. We hate others of lesif im portance, but you can see them at the proper time. ........ Whhkeas, we, the republicans of the county of Wake, and the state of North Carolina, have for eighteen years; been attempting to assert our rights and liberties by the ballot as citizens. And, whereas, in. each i on test, our will was unheeded aud crush ed to the sarth by the democracy of of the county aud the state, and Whekeas, we found it necessary to co-operate wid some other political organization for the purpose of pre sorting our rights as men and the purity of the grand old republican party, and the liberties of our chil dren as fathers, and Whereas, our efforts were opposed by democrats and others who called themselves republicans and who aided the Democrats in their damnable work." -Therefore be it. He-solved,.- That we, the republicans of the county of Wake, of the state of Noth Carolina, do openly aud plainly denounce their action as party perfidy am) dishonor. "Be it further 'Resolved,' that all who acted like wise are enemis to the republican party of this county and state. Signed by Hev. J. Perry, Samuel Towns, 1 Fields, S. J.
