LACY FOR TREASURER Editors Times-Visitor: Having fired for Mr. Lacy, ran iyi engine on the road with him and worked under hiui when he was fore man, have had the best of opportuni ties to judge his character. He has represented the Brotherhood of Loco motive Engineers in several Grand Conventions, nnd his councils in these meetings are always listened to. Our Grand Chief is his personal friend, the truth is he is about the most promin ent member of our order in the South. He was one of the best runners pn the road, ami got all out of both engine nnd fireman that' was in them, yet I never knew a fireman that was not his friend. As foreman he was strict ly business, yet never cross or unjust. Since leaving the road he has always remained true to his first love, nnd no railroad man has ever had him turn a denf ear to his troubles. I am not. a politician, but have never been as in terested in one inun's getting on the ticket as I am for Mr. Lacy to secure the nomination for Treasurer. If the leaders desire to make the working men enthusiastic for the election now is the time. Wake county should not send any man to the State Convention who is not for Mr. Lacy first, last and all the time. Let me advise every man to coinc out tonight and cast a vote for one of the most honest and true men alive, one who has been faithful in all things, has filled every place of trust, as well as any one can. and some bet ter than many have. Mr. Lacy is not simply the working man's candidate liccause one of our best lawyers, Mr" Field, has endorsed him publicly, yet his nomination will give more pleas ure than, any of the others whose names are mentioned for the place. If you are a friend of ours now is the time to prove it by voting for and advocating Mr. Lacy. Let us remem ber our friends. W. R. BISHOP. Chief Engineer of Div. 339. B. of L. E. KILLING FROSTS. .

TO TAKE PLACE TO MORROW AT 10.30 A. M Prof. Urpa one oMbe World's Famous Lespers Here Same High Diver who Performed at Alaota. 'Raleigh is to witness a wonderful feat tomorrow morning at 10:30 o'clock, when Prof. Loof Lirpa will leap from the top of the' Capitol building, from the south entrance and facing Fayetteville street, to the pave ment below without the use of a para chute, but landing in a net, which will he erected shortly before that hour. There will be no charges, but. n col lection will be taken for the Iwnefit of n popular charitable institution. Prof. Lirpa is one of the world-renowned leapers, the only man who ever successfully made the leap from the top of the Capitol at Washington. He claims to.Jiave leaped from the tops of capitols in seventeen States, and holds letter's from Governor's of these State's testifying to these won derful feats, among them the Govern or's of iYirginfa, Tennessee, Kentucky, Georgia and Mississippi in the South. Hp hopes tbat he will be able to go to the Paris Exposition after the close of his engagement with Sun Brothers' circus. Loof Lirpa is remembered ns the uKin who performed such wonder ful feats in Atlanta and Philadelphia. In Atlanta he drew great crowds daily near the Agricultural Building, und at the National Export Exposition in Philadelphia, just after the close of the Sun Brothers' tour of the North, he made Machinery Hall famously popular. He has been in training at the Fair Grounds, where the show has been in its winter quarters. The net into which he will jump will be brought in oi one of the large circus wagons which Sun Brothers use for the transportation of the canvas and other material from the trains to the place of exhibition. Sun Brothers show has with it a large number of artists, each in his special line being the equal if not superior of any other man in the employ of n circus in the United States. They are to have a free exhibition just before their open ing here next week and it is expected that the appearance of Prof. Lirpa tomorrow morning for a churituwc purpose will be the cause of much talk. TO THE WORKWOMEN Much lias been said In public print as to who shall be the nominee on the State ticket for State Treasurer. Tho gentle men who I have heard named, vis.. Mr. Henry London. Mr. B. R. Lacy and Mr. J. D. Boushall are all excellent men and sterling Democrats and would fill the position of State Treasurer to the satis faction of every mechanic in .the State, and 1 shall support the ticket, named by the Democratic State Convention, re gardless of who may constitute such ticket, but would like to state that when organized labor needed a friend In the last Legislature Mr. Boushall stepped to the front, took up the gauntlet and labor ed earnestly day and night when the question of State printing was on for discussion, and the printers of Raleigh should honor Mr. Boushall for his manly fight in tbelr behalf by attending the primaries tonight and give him their sup port. UNION PRINTER. TO THE VOTERS OF RALEIGH. Editors of The Times-Visitor: I feel it my duty to urge my fellow workmen to turn out in full tonight at Royall Knights Hull, on CabaiTiis street, and lend a hand in nominating Hon. B. R. Lacy, the only actual, bona fide mechanic who has ever aspired to a-State office to my knowledge. We should all turn out and give our pres ence nnd votes to Mr. Lncy. It is use less to State Mr. Lacy's position on the labor question, because we all know where he stands. Respectfully, C. F. COOKE. FATHER AND SON.

At present the sidewalks of Raleigh in place of being paved uniformity, aro good, tad and indifferent. This of, course, la because one property owner is able to pay for the best, while his less fortunate neighbors can only, after real self-denial, put down the cheapest. All will admit that a plan equalizing the burden of paving will be commenda ble. It can be done by the city issuing "Ten Year Sidewalk Paving Bonds," and, letting one contract for the paving, under their supervision, of all tho city side walks with the very best pavement (the granolithic, for lustance). Measure up the sidewalk put down for each property owner, taking Into consideration super vision, Interest, etc., etc., thus arriving at the cost, and tbeu, for example, say: Mr. A, It cost fifty dollars to pnt down your sklewRlk. We will add five dollars a year to your taxes for ten years to pay for It. Even those who have already put down brick would be only too willing Ho take up, the brick and avail themselves of the advantages this plan offers. The city would not actually pay one cent, as the entire coot would be reim borsed by the property owners during tho ten years tho city only lending its credit. The property owners, who now have a heavy burden to bear, would have tt so distributed that they would scarcely feet It, getting the required pavement and having ten years in which to pay for it. The plan, put Into operation would give us the best pavements on easy payments, and our city would present a uniform and beautiful appearance; and, while our municipal authorities now say: "You must pave," they would add then: "But will help you to do It."

ONLY TWO REMAIN Twenty Four Prisoners Sent to Work House This Afternoon Twenty-four prisoners were taken from Wake county jail this afternoon and carried to the work house, wher" they will be kept ..0 ..G ..ti ..(1 ..G they will be put to work on the coun ty roads. The combined terms of the twenty-four prisoners amounts to leu years, one nionth and twenty days. The longest total of terms of any squad ever taken to the work-house was twenty-two years. There arc six teen men and eight women hi the dele gation sent out, this afternoon. The greater number of those seut to the rnnds were convicted of assaults, cur rying concealed weapons and for lar ceny. The one for the longest term is Agnes Utley, who was alleged to have attempted to poison a faimly here by putting matelies in the cof fee. This exodus leaves the jail almost deserted. There are only two male prisoners remaining about whom there is any interest. There is one insane woman who swears and curses almost continuously and who express es in vilest profanity her opinion of any one who may attempt to take her to Goldsboro. At times she is quiet and apparently of souud mind, but she will get in a dark corner and oe come a raving maniac. The two males arc Tom Jones, who is condemned to die May 11th, and George Lee. who was given a sentence, for ten years at hard labor in the penitentiary, Tom Jones is certain to hang, but he has hopes. This afternoon he was told by a visitor that his case would not be heard again. He hung , his' head, his eyes watered, and a mope dejected countenance was never be held. He clings to hope. George Lee's guilt has never been acknowledged. He still maintains that he is innocent and from his frank manner and honest face many are won over to his side. It is probable that the boy will be made to serve two or three years and then a pardon will be secured for him. COL JOHN S. CUNINQHAM (Exchange.) John S. (uiiinghani has withdrawn from the race for Governor of North Carolina. Colonel Cuninirliani has many friends who regretted to hear that he bad concluded to retire from the canvas when his prospects were so bright, but the fact that he did it alone for party harmony and to insure a Democratic victory in his State causes those who know the man to rejoice, yet no one of them is sur prised nt his action. Colonel Cuninghnm is well and fa vorably known. He has been success ful in business beyond the dreams of many men. He is well equipped in every sense of the word. He has abili ty and he has wealth, and far greater than all these, he has character. Had the genial Colonel concluded to go in for business he would have won ihe tight. But he knew to do it would be to create dissension. It would en gender strife. Jt would make him some enemies and do the party no good but perhaps do it harm so. like the big hearted patriot that he is he flung away ambition nnd withdrew from the race, pledging his work, whole-hearted, for Democratic victory and white supremacy. In these days when we read of the Clarke's and the Quays and the Han na's the men who buy their way into positions which were once recognized as positions of honor and trust but are such no longer, it is indeed grati fying to find a man who puts party above self, and who, conscious of the power of the dollar which he possess es, refuses to use his wealth to disrupt and disgrace the party to which he belongs. It is not only gratifying, but it is inspiring. It gives one a more hopeful view of life. It causes us to realize that patriotism is not i t dead. Colonel Ciiningham is a young man yet. and his heroic sacrifice be lia inade will be remembered by the good people of the Old North State. He has added new honor to bis name and lie stands today a greater man than had he forced and bought his way and been elected Governor of North Caro lina. All honor to him -would there were more of the same heroic mould. THE RALEIGH GUN CLUB.
