T Jt seems that the Republicans
are on top in Raleigh. They
oppose *the camulative ~plan "of
voting. Messrs. Butler, Skinner
and Co. are heartily in favor of it.

feat and is somewhat discomfit-
ted. The Republicans are de-
termined to~have the county

and the Populists.are going to

Poor deluded creatures! They
are being led in a body into the
Republican party. and yet a few
years ago they had nothing but
abuse for that party.

Mr. Lusk, of Buncombe, made
a fool of himself in the House
Tuesday over the bill to work
convicts cn the public� roads.
One would have thought that he
was the guardian angel of one
Sarah Taylor, colored, whom it is
said was possessed-of seyen dev-
ils and: whom Mr. Lask said was
whipped because she refused to
work in his county. He charged
heinous crimes to the Democratic
party~ When Messrs. Ray,. Pee-
bles and McClammy came to the
defence of the Democratic party
they made it warmer for Mr.
Lusk than he has felt since he
has been in Raleigh. They held
him up in &@ very unéaviable posi-
tion and poured in hot shot upon
him-until he left the House. The
News & Observer helps * little
along this line by showing that
this same Lusk wanted Zeb
Vance bung, and is the same
scoundrel that Randolph Shot-
well caned publicly in the streets

Northern Cotton Manufacturers
are flying or preparing to fly
from their Northern homes to the

the new cotton will be at the door

bor is abundant-and cheaper than
at the North; where the light -of

the rigors of the climate are not
so severe. The South welcomes
the new comers. Every part of
