Great dam age has been done on the State farm near Halifax by the recent fresht in the Roanoke river. This loss is estimated at $50,000. was over 1,00) acres otf corn, ‘and 600 The water of cotton. The corn loss is estimated at ten thousand barrels, and the cotton at four hundred bales. The breaking of the dyke caused the overflow and damage. President Faure, of France, came very near being assassinated on ‘Tues- day last. While sitting in an open carriage on the review ground at Long Champs a well dressed man by the name of Francois drew a pistol and fired at him twice. Before he could fire the third time the crowd gathered in upon him and weuld have lynched him but for the iaterence of the police. Mr. J. H. National Committee of the Populist Turner, secretary of the Party, comes out boldly for Mr. Bryan for President and calls upon all People’s Party men to join him in his endeavor to elect this distinguished advocate of free silver. Mr. Turner calls the ac- tion of the Chicago convention the triumph of the plain people of the Uni- ted States. Joseph G. Myers, cashier ot the Sea- board Air-Line in Charlotte has fled to parts unknown with at least four thousand dollars of the company’s mon- ey. The railroad will lose nothing as his bond is for five thousand dollars. At the buttom of the affuir is a notor- ious woman, who has ruined more than two prominent men in South Carolina, before coming to Charlotte. Myers leaves a wife and three small children and is said to lave sailed for Europe last Saturday. Re.d the following from this week's Caucasian, and then ask yoarselves the question whether the Republicans can be trusted to give you free silver. Mr. Pritchard it will be remembered has pretended to be a great friend of the cause : “Senator Pritchard is no longer « “friend to silyer” and so friends to cil- ver can no longer be (political) friends to Pritchard. He has taken the plurge into the gold camp, and the only honest and consistent thing for him to do now is to advocate the gold standard. Pro. fesions of being friendly to silver from him cannot and will not be taken se- rivusiy uow by those who once sup- ported him for a high office. If his words are to be believed, he has re- pudiated pledges heretofore made, and he can expect nothing less than repu- diation ot himself by those to whom he made those pledges. Mr. Pritchard will yet sit in the Senate before the people will have an opportunity : to dis- miss him as their representative there, but we hardly think any action he may take will be inconsistent with his form. er promises during the time that he will remain Senator. Here is his latest promise and opinion: “1 shall cheer. fully support the Republican ticket, and I feel confident MeKintey ‘and ‘Hobart will carry North’ Carolina’by a hahdgome majority; and’ thatthe action i Bat Modi "Next door to Bank of saan: jovertipeing anajarity2? + cagorgonvention | ingures i the be ‘Republican ticket “by ‘an!

M’Kinley’s Inconclusiveness. and apparently painful stages towards a plain and conclusive statement in op- position to free-silver coinage. His speech on Saturday came nearer to the mark than anything he has yet said And still it was made up largely of dull or glittering generalties. He did not say le is opposed to free coinage: : Still less did he intimate thas he would veto a high-taritf bill with a free-silver attachment—the only kind of a tartff bill he is likely to get from the next Congress, Furthermore My. McKinley repeated his statement that “ve have the same currency that we had in 1892, good the world over, and unquestioned by any people.” This is not true. Our silver dollars are not “good the world over. They are worth only their bullion value, some 53 cents, outside ot this country.
