Do you believe in negro rub ? l*o you favor tin* election of negro live keepers as « m mber or the mard wf education to whom white ad.v teachers must apply lor po ut ions? Do you favor mixed ju ies before whom the criminal ele n«nt cannot b“ convicted? Re netnbor McDowell. So long ns white candidates for >■ lie in McDowell tell the negro lint they will never vote to disfran his him and that there will never • ■ a “Jim Crow" law if they can • vent it, and that they favor mix I juries, &c., tli u-e is little hope r improvements.

The above v ry e.xttuisievly proves hat the Democratic party stands or principles and not office. Just my one to win will not go with Democracy. ltryan and Johnson’s principles are right, hence the nom inations. In tho communication of Mr. \V. W Hunhos which was published in * estorday'e Daily Tel ‘graph ami re prod uc d bj' the Lea dor there ap peared the following paragraph: "There are men in McDowell 'onnty. and U-publicans at that, who in years past have stood ready mil willing to do what they could o purify conditions morally and >ol;tically in their county. When hose men suggested that affairs were not conduct I as they should, vhen they presumed to open the 'ay for light to lie turn d on, they tot only met with no support, but veto "knocked” in politics and bus iness and every conceivable way.” it is a pitiable state of affairs when those who undertake to "pu-» *:fy conditions morally and polit ealiy ’ ar "knocked” in politics ■n 1 business and in every other way.
