"My countrymen, the ebiefest merit of those, to whose memory that monument has been erected was their loyalty to the truth as tbey saw the truth. This is the noblest attribute of man, that he can love truth supremely. The truth as we see it, to be loyal to that truth Is our supremest duty.

Mayor Willlama' Commonicatlon. Elsewhere wjll be found a oommuni- cation from Mayor B. P. Williams, in which he propounds several questions for us to answer, which we will en deavor to do truthfully and sinoerely. In tho first place we will ask Mr. Williams a question. Who narrowed the contest for the Presidency of the A. & N. G. R. down to Bryan and Sim mons? Nine-tenths of the people along the line of the railroad from Ooldsboro to Beaufort are urging Governor Fowle not to re-appoint Mr. Bryan; they do not attempt to narrow him down to Mr. Bryan or Mr. Simmons. While a great many intimate a preference for Mr. Simmons, yet they are satisfied to leave the matter with Oovernor Fowle, pro vided he irill not re appoint Mr. Bryan. Governor Fowle knows this. Mr. Wil liams lot anyone elee has a right to narrow the conteat don to these two gentlemen. Where did Mr. Simmons stand in 1886." He stood as u candidate for Congress and had his hands full without joining in a fight against Mr. Clark. Mr. Sim mons had friends wbo were opposed to Mr. Clark; Mr. Clark had friends who were opposed to Mr. Simmons. In our honest opinion Mr. Simmons was no more in opposition to Mr. Clark than Mr. Clark was in opposition to him, and we don't believe either opposed the other, however imprudent some of their friend p might have been in the cam paign. Won't you admit that F. M. Simmons was the cause ("of your getting about GOO votes Ichh than Mr. Clark in 1888") by making a combination with Hahn and Hancock to do what they could" etc. Certainly and most emphatically we will not aamit that Mr. Simmons is the cause of a thing that never existed. As it is not true that we received about 600 votes less in 1888 than Mr. Clark did in 1886, Mr. Simmons nor anyone else can be the cause of it. For the information of our f riend,the Mayor,we will state that in 1886 Mr. Clark received for the Senate 1.708 votes. In 1888 Nunn received for the Senate 1,545. (These figures we think are within a dozen of being true if not exaotly true). Only 163 less, and this simply because the Coalition Republicans, it being a general election, did not support the Democratio portion of the ticket as they did in 1886. As evidence of this, compare tno vote or 4tn wara, ntn precinct, and Camp Palmer of 1880 with that of 1888. We are always ready and willing to stand on our record, Mr. Williams, but we objeot to your making tho record unless you get nearer right than you have in the above. 'At the bottom of said article where you make your apology, " eto. As there is no apology at the bottom, top or middle of said article, we con clude that the Mayor had just been re ceiving an apology from a violator of the Sunday law and got a little mud dled. Come out and admit that yon are opposing Mr. Bryan because you think Hon. C. 0. Clark favor him Friend Williams, you ought not to judge others, in all things, by yourself, So far from opposing a thing because Mr. Clark favors it, we say frankly and truthfully that we feel it an honor to be in accord with such a gentleman and the leaning is consequently in the other direction; that ia to favor men and things because he. does when we can coheistently,with our honest judgment, Is Mr. Clark in favor of Mr. Bryan? We do not believe it. Ha may prefer Mr. Bryan to remain President of the road rather than see some other par ticular person put in, but that he is in favor of Mr. Bryan, perse, we do not believe it, nor shall we believe it until the statement comes direct from him. As vou "are well aware that as be tween Bryan and Simmon, leaving out the Rads, Bryan would get three votes to Simmons' one for President of the road.''y-'. . , '-.;- Onttbe" contrary : we are aware, and Mr.;. Williams in his heart believes It that if the vote was taken in this eoufr ty for the two men Upon their merits', without outside aid,4? Simmons would get at least fifejotes to his one f If left to a vote of the counties along the line of the road, viz: Wayne, Lenoir, Jone, Craven,. Carteret and Pamlico, Simmons would get at least fifty votes to his tine. ; Your ; bad memory, ; Hr.. Williams, concerning the vote of 1886 and 1888 will leave a great doubt upon the. mind of the people a to whether you knew "how thing are.' -7 i j'-itbe game at e' Fairt grounds ye terday was exciting and interesting. ? u will be more bo this morning." rij Tho pleasant effect' arid the perfect safety with which ladies may use the liquid fruit laxative, Syrup of Digs, un der all conditions make it their favor ite romndy.

Promptly at 4 o'o ock yesterday aftei ternoon the baseball contest between the Ooldsboro nine and the New Berne nine commenced at the Fair grounds, with W. W. Clark. Esq , as umpire and the Ooldsboro nine at the bat. The con tea tents were as follows. Ooldsboro A'ine. King s. s., Thompson 2b.,Draughn,c, Kain p., Phillips 1. f., Lewis o. f., Howell 8 b., D.

Ooldsboro won by a sooie of 18 to 6. "To the victors belong the spoils," and the cheers that greeted their victory came alike from spectators aLd the New Berne Club. The bearing on the field was manly and gentlemanly and nothing occured to mar the pleasure of the occasion. We trust that our Ooldsboro friends will soon visit us again, and whether they come as champions of the nations! game or not they will be most cordially welcomed. The contest will be renewed this morning at lU o clock. The grand stend will be in the shade and every thing in good shape for visitor?. Persona1.

In said article you admit Mr, Brvan to be a man of influence, but in said article you fail to say who waa the cause of your getting about 600 vote lesB than Mr. Clark in 1888. Come to the front and stand on your record Wont you admit that, u.
