DEAR Gazs'i'rii: —A week's sojourn in this quaint and southern town has fur- nished items of historical interest enough to fillabook. This is the “Verdenton” of Judge Teurgee’s political novel, “A Fool’s Errand.” Our genial Landlord. Benbow yesterday drove us out past the spot where the judge and his wife taught the negro school, and the old darkey'sV but ’way across the fields where the pair were secreted, housed and fed by the aforesaid old darkey, when their lives were in jeopardy by the Ku Klux. A few miles from town is his “Warrington” estate for which he negotiated and essayed to cut up into ten acre tows for his colored friends. It was an old tree nursery plan- tation, and like everything else in nature hercabonls has run to seed, but possesses many charms of situation and scenery. But all his efforts to aid the condition of the freedmen tended only to excite the hostility of the native Bourbon, and made their situation worse than ever and put his own life in jeopardy. During the mili- tary governorship of General Canby, and “when the colored vote was counted,” as our informant very considerately stated, Mr. Tourgee was elected a judge of the Greensboro, district court, and proved himself an able and impartial jurist. But on the the advent of the old-tichonrbons or rebels to power he was deposed. _ The Ku Klux raided this section, committing - the most atrocious crimes and murders without let or hindrance from any one. This is what led the judge to the conclu- sion that in his efiort to find a mild and genial climate for his. weak lungs, and at the same time do something towards ele- vating the outraged and down-trodden freedinen, he had entered upon “A Fool’s Errand.” ' This remarkable book, which was so roundly berated by democrats at the north, lt’ is surprising to be assured by old residents here, is a literal and truthful recital of events that transpired here in Greensboro and in its vicinity. At our table at the Benbow we are waited on by a bright and sprightly colored boy who' is the son of “old Wyatt Altlaw," who Was the “Uncle Jerry Hunt,” of the Fool’si Errand, the old negro preacher the Kn Klnx hung and left swinging from the tree. He was hung to a sapling for the crime of being a preacher and a republi- can within forty rods of the ecurt house at Graham, and hundreds of people still living hereabonts saw the body swinging from the limb, as his terrified relatives and friends didn’t dare to cut him down. “John Walters" of the book, another man murdered by the Ku Klux, was John Walters Stevens. He was a native North Carolinian, had been; elected a republican member- of. the state legislature, and was bold and fearless' in his denunciation of the Bourbon crimes. He was caught in the court house, literally as described in book, and his throat cut, his head held over a pail to catch the blood, and his body thrust into a wood box where it was found. At our hotel is frequently to be met ‘Judze Denton," whose “removal” was decreed by the Ku Klux because he denounced their outrages. He' is anative, ‘1 lawyer, and at the present time presides iver the .U. S. District Court of Florida. He' is passing his vacation here at his old home,- and his real name is Judge Thomas Settle. Sarmer near here. A He was the good neighbor of the “fool,” and an outspoken, resolute-North Carolinian who still loves to drive into “Verdenton” and talk over the old :times and old crimes. “Ralph Kirkwood" is a native; and he’it was who got demoralized and made a full confes- sion of his participation in the hanging of the old preacher, “Jerry Hunt,” and fur-~ nished the. list of names all his associates in that ,wicked't'ragedy. .He is said to he at present employed in a cotton mill- at Providence, R. I. His real name is Joe. W. Stocker. \ “ Colonel Boyd, ” another native. sat on the porch of our hotel as earnest and jolly as any one of the crowd the first few evenings after our arrival, but he is now quite ill with malarial chills and fever, much of which is afflicting the people here. Boyd is the “John Burlcson” of the book. He exposed the secret work of the Ku Klux and roundly [denounced their infamous crimes, and everyone marvels~ that he was not put to death. President Hayes made him U. S. District Attorney, and he held his place’until the advent of “Cleveland reform.” When Boyd was asked if he did not deem it a pity that sectional difiicnlties could not have been settled at the first by a compromise, he bluntly responded, ‘V‘No, nothing could ever have satisfied and settled the s nth but a blanked good licking and we got it, and now there is some hopes of recon- ciliation in the future.” The colonel says there is no vestige of the murderous order now in existence in this' state, and that there is now a' feeling of revulsion and horror felt by white people generally ovar its cnormities, and since the democrats got control of the legislature amnesty acts were passed, so that I with others have come to the conclusion that it is better to lot this feature of the war pass into forget- fulness as soon as possible. Of course no one was ever punished for the horrible crimes committed. The colonel is confi- dent that a majority of the white voters of this state are at heart republicans, and that North Carolina is certainly a protec- tionist state. Riding past a field yesterday three men and a negro woman were diligently hoeiug the crop.. We asked what vvages these people get, and learned that sixty cents a day or $10 a month were the ruling prices. “That woman," said our informant, “does as much or more field work than the men and I pay her the same. She prefers field work to indoor service, mainly because she can earn so much better wages.” We learned that on $10 per month there are many negro laborers who support them- selves and. families, and yet lay; aside money enough in the" course of three or four years to'purehase a' few aces of land and erect a cabin, while their nativewhito brother works Only as forced to‘do so, and ckes out a miserable living ou'tlic meagre rental of. some part of his ancestors’ plan- tution, leased to the more thrifty freed- men. Recently the Knights of Labor have been perfecting organizations throughout these southern towns and cities, and it is said to be astonishing to see how readily the white and black workmen ‘V‘pool their issues” and make a common price for like work. Our landlord' is a large employer of hands, having several farms to work as well as the conduct of his hotel. _He says the colored man, as a rule, is a more faith- ful and profitable hand than any white man he can employ tVVo‘do the same kind . of work. One of the most 7.113773 incidents or local life here to no on b‘eyes is to see every pleasant a “07.9,“. bevies of the “jedges,” "gene 5;". 7‘fcolonel's’7’ and “squires” come b“ ping ”down the main street, and when 0th of; our hotel see one and all “squ ’.’ down on' the dirty William R. Albright is now a' and there sit by the hour and squirt tc- . bacco juice and discuss the affairs of state with a seriousness and sense of per- sonal responsibility that would put to blush any member of the “reform” cabinet of President Cleveland. These self inr- portant and venerable gentlemen stand h'ere in about the some popular estimation as such citizens as W. S. Moody, D. P. Ely, H. M. Prowitt, Charles F. Osborne and the like would in our own community at home, and one can conjecture what an impression it would create should they seat themselves thus upon the street steps and curb stones to discuss national issues as these best citizens do here. There' is a ”large number of earnest and active republicans hero, but they are hope- less of any show at the ballot box. They are patiently waiting for “something to turn up." There is “far from a solid unity in the democratic ranks,” but it seems useless to hope any considerable number will secede from thc‘Vold Bourbon ranks so long as ;the patronage of the national administration is in their hands. Quite a strong impetus has been recent- ly given the prohibition party, and many good men from both the old parties have joined it. They will put a congressional candidat‘c' in the field this fall in this dis- trict, but with very little chance of7 elect- ing their man- It will not, howe'yer, as at the north, serve to injure the party that has always stood for temperance legisla- tion, and help the party of free license. Stephen A. Douglass, ~AJr.V,7 son of the “Little Glant,",’ is a resident here. This is quite a large railroad centre. _Its principal articles of export are tobacco 7, and lumber. Much of the latter goes abroad via Norfolk, and large quantities of a tough and very white and clear hickory goes to New Haven for fine car. riage work. Land varies from $5 to $100 .per acre, according to quality and near- ncss to the town. The highways are exe- crable, the houses in the main comfort- able, some homes quite attractive,'morc by '- reason of ancient trees on their lawns than by reason of any beauties of architecture. There is a large negro normal or high school, presided over by an experienced and thoroughly equipped Massachusetts principal. The M. E. church south has a large female seminary here, which is well susthincd. The “Benbow House" is a temperance hostelery, and the best tavern we havc ever struck in all the south. It glves us fresh eggs, poultry, cream, milk, butter and butter milk with unlimited melons and garden vegetables from its own farms adjacent. Water-melons and sweet potatoes nrcthe meat and drink of many of the native whites, as well _as the joy of the freedmcu. A country “schoon- with watermelons halted in front of l'th'e house yesterday, and a rush of whites and blacks was made to the tail board. They were retailed at five and ten cents, and the music of their breaking on the wagon tires and the heap of 'rinds :barracading the vehicle would have eclipsed a Mary. land colored camp meeting ground. One elderly white lady sat down flat' in the gutter and, with the aid of a stick, ex- humed the red and luscious interior, while little colored urchins stood about eagerly jumping for any piece of rind thrown out. A mule is worth: more than a7 horse here. Pretty ponies are quite common and sell from $25 to $75 each. oxen and stage are used' in carts singly as well as double, and all seem to be broken- to the bit the same as the horse and mule. There is a large wagon wheel and spoke mill, and numberless tobacco factories here, but the same general air of inertia and shiftless- ness prevails here that is so universally witnessed’ in southern towns. Newgener- atioris of men and women must grow up before this can be radically“ changed. Meeting a friendly looking countryman and farmer with .an extra fine pair of males we asked him what was the reason his people didn’t brisk up a little more and raise better crops? “Why,” said he, ,“there’s nothing the matter with we uns, except that we are so' Vd—d’ lazy! I won’t work, and there won’t any of us work only just as little as we’re‘compelled to. We aru’t like you uns Yankees, work just for the fun of it. " That is about the exact diagnosis of the situation at Tourgee’ s “Verdcnton. ” . As ever, B. ———————<+>—————- , Contemporaries on Elaine’s Speech. Mr. Blaine’sspeech yesterday was good enough for 11 President’s message. That, however will come along in 1889. 7 More than any official message, more than any action by Congress or Legisla- ture, the speech at Sebago Lakewill direct the current of political discussion and the attitude of parties. His speech will be read with the liveliest interest not only because his welLdeserved fame as a public speaker begets high expec- tations, which are never disappointed, but because more than any other man he is the chief and spokesman of the Republi- can party, and presents with something akin to authority its 7 convictions and ma- tured judgement. Behind his words lies the power of an intelligent and consolidated, public opin- . ion. He speaks not for James G. Blaine only, but for more of the citizens of Amer. ica than any other man can. The difference which exists between the- Republican and Democratic parties in re- spect to promoting industrial interests was effectively set forth and emphasized by the citation of facts. 7 .Mr. Blainc‘s vigorous arraignment [of the State Department] is one from which there is no escape. His first speech in the Maine canvass is so temperate, so full of words of wisdom and pervaded by such broad statésman- -ship that it will fit any and every-section of the country.‘ - Mr. Blaine’s opening spiceeh 1n the Maine campaign, delivered at Sebago Litke,’ is a calm, vigorous and trenchant statement of Republican principles as applied to current issues.- ———o+o———— Our Contemporaries.

And the questions may pertinently_ ‘bc asked, what are we going to do during the long winter evenings? how are we to tut-n them to our mutual profit? Wewill have. without doubt, the usual quota of dances, operas, candy pulls, kissing bees, card parties, etc. All harmlessand enjoyable. But when considered in their bearings upon the question of profit and progress, what is their influence? Negative,..at best. Dancing may develop the calves, but it breeds coma, and the exercise of the heels doesn't develop the paramomitqnalities of the head. Let us dance, and dance often. But while we are resting our heels let us give our heads a show. Organize literary societies and enjoy the wondrous beauties. of Shakespere, Burns and Tennyson; or- ganize traveling clubs, and at home explore Africa, climb the Alps and visit Holy lands; organize debating societies and discuss current topics and absorbing questions of politics, morals. nature and the arts, and above all, the overshadow- ,ing problem of human happiness and how best the condition of mankind can be im- proved, human woes softened and human joys intensified. Such employment for the main wall of winter recreation, with the other light pastimes for filling the chinks, will speed the “cheerless” season 7 by on fleet and noiseless wings, and leave us on the threshold of the budding spring- time happy in the consciousness of pleas- ure experienced and profit gained. 8! ‘ I! I took a pleasant driVe over through Weston last week, the first time I had been through that part of our delightful ‘count'yin fifteen years, and I must con- fess that the fact that the village is in just about the same rut as when I was a frequent visitor" there. impressed me with the thought that social and material inertia—and even positive retrogrcssion—r are sometimes desirable. - The simple fact of the landmarks and customs being im- mutably the same now as then, brought me in fancy ’way back to those good old days and made me feel fifteen years younger. And the happy illusion was still further realized by an enjoyiblc meet- iug with. one of .the old-time characters, a malteseVlwhiskered, hoary-headed old patriarch who, even then, was privileged as an “old stand-by,” and of whom it used to be related that he had said he “never went outside of the state of Connecticut but once in his life, and that was when he went to New Haven to hear a drum W-” __.+K ' More Railroad Rumor. ~ A New Haven correspondent of the New York Tribune in gossiping about Connec- ticut railway matters says:—“Beginning 7at New Milford the Housatonic‘ company will; build a branch road that will run through New Preston, Washington, Mar- bledale and Norihville, and connect with the Shepaug railroad at a point near the New Preston statibn.
