W ith this issue Th e Record en ters upon the second half of its sixth volume, and this being the first number in the New Year,1905, we take oecasion to talk a little about T iie Record and the Repub lican party of the county and State vvith a word, here and there, sand- witched between as to the promo tor and editor, in conjunction with the paper and party. For some time prior io the first number of Th e R ecord in 1899 we realized the want of a Republi can newspaper in the county, but there seemed to be none who would willingly venture in the doubtful enterprise. This idea grew iipou us until we felt forced to under take the work. There Having never been a Re publican newspaper published in the county the people could not re alize the importance of such a pub lication, and really he who would undertake the embarkation must necessarily, for a time, play a lone hand. AYe also recognized that onr po litical enemies were likely to make innovations that would in time im pair the strength of the Republi can party; so, in the face of little or no encouragement we launched the little barque—Tiie R ecord— either to “sink or swim” in the rough political sea that was then at its highest turbulent. stage, when Democracy had entrenched itself behind the red-shirt-shot-gnn pol icy and proposed to ride rough shod over the people—which they did, terrorizing the State, in 1898 and 1900, as is only too well known to every man in North Carolina. Duiing that period Th e Record battled ui its humble way without •‘fear or favor” tor Republicanism, lighting along side of hosts of the “old guard” to right the wrongs perpetrated upon the people of the Old North Slate; aud while it is not our purpose, in this article, lo discuss these questions and mat ters of grave-import—Democratic party policies,—yet, it is nece sary Io incidentally refer to them to show to onr leaders and the gen eral public somewhat the work T h e Ri-xiuiD has been engaged in. To educate the Republican mas ses to the point where they must realize—for the safety of their par ty and the good of the country- Ihat they must support anil main tain their party paper, requires tact aud courage aud time, practic ing the strctest economy ,aud withal a determination to overcome prejudice aud indifference,and fight the enemy fearlessly' wherever found. In this field Th e R ecord has been-continuously fighting- if not altogether “strenuously,’ at least valiantly—“ in-the open” —notin ambush, but in the open field, and we confidently leave the result with the people who have beenits read ers; to the Democracy that has felt its force,and to the public gen erally. When we shoved the little craft out into the political waters they were boiliug and the breakers dashed high; but- wc didn’t know ninch more about, journalism thau a hog does about Sunday; but be ing endowed with a finer intellec tual strain than the hogwe “evo- luted,” so to speak, and while we may still rank low in the scale of great journalism, we have learned some things, aud one thing we have learned “for sure,” that no matter how ably you edit, a newspaper it canuotbe run abd maintained with out money. . Itcan be said that there is no business where so little capital is employed as in a country newspa- paper where there is so great ex pense, and that is why there are so many failures—the: patronage is not commensurate with the ex pense. An increased plant to better the service iucreases the cost ot main taining th e enterprise. Cost in mechanical work and talent em ployed are necessities. AVe may l>e mistaken, but believe the time has come for the Republi can party of this btate to establish more newspapers and of a high grade, and upon a larger scale. A party that at “one fell swoop” loses 100,000 votera by act of its tered forces in the face of the fierc est political contests ever waged, and re-forms the remnant into line and renews the struggle upon a new and unknown battle field has not only the pluck to win victories, but the patriotism to endure and over come all obstacles that lie in its pathway. As proof of this valiant progress the Republican party has made iu this State, we have but to point to the increase of the voting ranks of that party in the past four years. At elections before the negro was ‘elimiated” Democrats in anthor- From thew ayEditorBailytalks there will be half a dozen,or more, amendments offered no the AVatts law, the weight of which, in our opinion, will kill it as dead as a nit, lor the effort to make it a real temperance law will meet with a powerful Democrat ring opposition, ■ which never intended to be any thing else than a political scheme to Tilmanise the State for political purposes. The Raleigh Rost, une quivocally damns the law for vari ous reasons, bnt especially that feature favoring rich Deiuocratsby ity accredited us with 30,000 white Mi'dug them permission to establish votes and yelled “negro domina tion. ” The late election gave Roosevelt S2,372 w h it r . .v o tes .! but compared to the vote of 1902 the Democrats” have lost. 51,000 votes. Without going further into this feature, at this time, other than to say no party ever made snch des tructive inroads upon another par ty, in the face of the same fierce opposition, as has the Republican party upon the Democratic party; hence, we say this increase of the white vote in the State—new re cruits won solely upon declarations of principles—minus “ red fire”— demands and expects more Republi can literature—newspapers at every available point and the very best, service we can give them, and the publishers will expect the “old liners” aud “ new recruits” to “buckle too” aud rally to their support, for no more anxious nor harder working class than the con scientious, devoted editors of news papers can be found in this work- a-day world, and the bitter they are supported the better the news paper they can give you. Tlie success of any newspaper is its subscription list; lienee, if yon want your county paper to succeed every Republican should make it a patriotic point to subscribe for it, for they are* the “ winners” in pol ices—not the big dailies. The political trend in this State, us in all the border Stales, is to ward Republicanism as laid down in the National and State platforms aud there cannot be, in the next four years any change iu the situ ation, principles nor policies. Pres ident Roosevelt has clear sailing. He has but to carry out these poli cies and maintain these principles to make his administration even more popular than when tlieAroer- ican I e p’e gave him 2,500,000 mo- e votes than the Democra ic candidate received, hence, the Re publican party must surely win in this State in !90S. AVisdom wjll characterize the condnct of political matters as they are and as they will ar.se, and. there will be the utmost harmony, no matter how hard the Demo cratic press works to disturb that harmony; but Republicans ■ mnst be wide-a-wake; the foe is wary and unscrupulous and the newspa per is the safety-valve of the Re publican party. By it that nn- scrupulocity and cunning decep tion, prejudice and false sentiment can be checkmated—villianons at tacks combated and truth di vulged. Th e R ecord will play its part in this great game and we hope to hold a better haud than, ever in the (ontests to come, and it is our greatest desire Io make the paper second to none, bnt as good as the best, and if the Republicans of Davie, Rowan and Iredell counties will send us big subscription lists we will realize our fondest hope, and the people a splendid county paper. Meet us half way in this effoit—not for what we might make out of it—but for the success of those grand, sound political and governmental principles that have won so many glorious victories and brought our people to such a high plane of political freedom and in dividual prosperity and our Na tion honor as Mo other nation on the globe enjoys—the pride of the American and the envy of the world.May the New Year bring to you - all our readers and patrons in creased happiness and prosperity. distillers and sell whiskey by spec ial act of legislature, at any old cross-roads in the State.

Commis sioners Representing the Two Com manders Met at 4 O’Clock Monday Afternoon and Subsequently Signed Articles of Capitulation. Port Arthur, whose liills have for months run red with the bloocl of the bravest of the two war-likc nations, has at last succumbed to the fierce tenacity of the Japanese attack. Gen eral Stoesscl. most stubborn in carry ing out the will of his sovereign, has seen the advance of the besieging army gain in momentum and energy until to bold out longer would have been a crime against humanity. The conditions of the siuTctulor arc uot yet known, but in all quarters it is anticipated that they arc such as an honorable sol dier may accept from a brave and vic torious enemy. At 9H3 o'clock Sunday night aHhe commissioners completed the singing of the capitulation agreement. Both avmics had suspended hostilities live Jiours earlier. The city of Port Ar thur will be otftupicd by the Japanese^ The authorities at St. Petersburg, in the absence of direct official news from General Stoossei that Port Ar thur lias surrendered, have not per mitted iiio news to become public. Em peror Nicholas is in the south of Rus sia, and his Ministers are for the time being in the dark as to what dis patches have been sent to him from the front. Tokio was the scene of rejoicing, people of all ranks finding in the out come compensation for all the sacri fice of life and money that was en tailed in the ten months’ siege. To what extent the fall of Port Ar thur will make for a restoration of peace Is an open question. There is an encouraging note in the expressiou by Baron Hayasbi, Japanese minister at London, of the hope that “in some way it will facilitate final peace,” though the pacific note is perhaps lost in the later words of the minister, whtcn call attention to the fact that the besieging army will now be free to go north, where it will be an offset to the rein forcements General Kuropatkin has been receiving from Russia since the battle of Shaklie. The spirit of the Russians may be judged by the statement of the secretary of the embassay at London that the campaign will be renewed with fresh vigor in the spring, and that the nation will not be content to permit Port Arthur to remain in the hands of the Japaese. Both in Paris and In London the opinion is that the squadron under Vice Admiral Roje-styensky, which started from Libau for the far East three months ago, will have to retrace its way home, as adherence to the original plans would invite disaster without probability of effecting a junction with the warships at present In the harbor of Vladivostock. That Japan may not be permitted to retain possession of Port Arthur without dlsrutc, is shown in the fact that Pario newspapers are already reviving the claim made in 1901 that the holding of that position commanding the Eastern seas by the Japanese would be a menace to European powers. .Chefoov By Cable—Commander Kart- z6wv of the Russian torpedo boat de stroyer Vlastni. which arrived here WQayv in an interview said: “Port Arthur falls of exhaustion, exhaustion not only of ammunition, but of men . “The remnant of the garrison left had been doing the work of heroes for five days and five nights, but yester day they reached the limit of human endurance, . “In the casemate of the forts one saw' everywhere faces black with starvation. exhaustion and nerve strain, You spoke to them, but they did not give answer, only staring dumbly.“The lack ' of ammunition alone would haw suggested the seeking of terms. Scant ammunition had long been common in the fortress, and dur ing the past mouth many of the forts had nothing with which to return the fire of the enemy, “The Russians sat in the casemates, firing not more than once to the two hundred shots sent by the Japanese. When the assault came they repulsed the enemy with, bayonets. But the men themselves, having existed for three months on reduced rations, were so worn that it is marvelous they stood tbe final strain so long. “Yesterday General Stoessel would still fight His wound, which was received early in the siege, had been bothering him, but his determination to fight while one man stood had not been diminished. “‘But wo cannot fight,' said his gen erals. 'Our men Cannot move. They sleep standing. They cannot see the bayonets at. their breasts. Wc can order, but lhey cannot obey.’“ ‘Then you generals fight,’ said Stoessel. clinched his fists, “He seemed fanatical on the subject, but finally he was brought to see res son by the insistence of his subor dinates. Admirals Lochinsky and Wiren. Generals SminiOff and Fock. and many others, sometimes with broken voices, urged the step which all dreaded so long. “The greatest loss suffered by Port Arthur occurred a fortnight ago, when Major General Krondratenko was kined. Officers and men alike re garded him as the brightest star in Port Arthur’s firmament. When his death became known, the fall in the spirits of the soldiers was plainly vis ible. General Kc-ndratenko was seated in the casemate of a certain fort dis easing ^vith seven other officers the best way of countermining against the Japanese, when au eleven-inch shell burst, killing everybody in the casemate. “General Kogi has taken Port Arthur with his artillery and his tunnels. His rifle bullets were seldom found to be of any use. “AVe who came here Monday do not know tbe terms of surrender sugest- ed by General Stnessel to General Nogi nor the answer, having left Port Ar thur even before*, the messenger had beeu dispatched. The general impres sion, however, is that Stoessel has proposed that the army shall go free and that he alone be made a prisoner. “It is a simple story. Had the am munition held out the fortress would have held out indefinitely. For months we held Port Arthur by bayonets alpne, until flesh and blood could do no more. When a man fell there was none other to replace him. Thus' the garrison was gradually worn down. Two hundred and Three-Meter Hill alone cost us fiT e thousand men. The capture of that bill was the beginning of the end.” Tokio Wildly Joyous* Tokio, By Cable.—Tokio is wildly joyous over Gen. Nogi’s teelgram an nouncing that Gen. Stoessel had sent a letter relating to the surrender of Port Arthur. News boys crying ex tras were the center of large crowds. The people grabbed the papers and repeated the cries. Thus was the news carried throughout the city, aud with in a few minutes the firing of aerial and daylight rockets began in various parts of the city. Bands appeared and a score of small processions formed and surged through ihe principal Hreets. Japan has paid a heavy price for the Russian fortress. The prospect of Hs early posession cheered the people as no other event of the war has done. The Emperor’s New' Year’s reception and auence to the army and navy and officers and civil officials con tinued this morning. The news froni Port Arthur gave additional cheer to the general exchange of congratulations. Shot Out 8oy*s Eyes. Newport News, Special.—Frcd West- Inghousct the small boy who was shot yesterday at Oriana by the premature explosion of a gun which was being loaded by a negro, will, lose bis eye sight as a result of the accident. The shot struck'him full in ihe fa c e , de stroying both eyes. Police Officer Sliotv Charlotte, Special.—Rural Officer S. E. Cole, of Belmont Park, was killed Sunday afternoon at half-past 5 o'clock by a negro. Will Springs. The homicide was committed at the railroad crossing near Sugar Creek church and within 200 yards of Zion negro church. Mr. Cole's-son-in-law, Mr. H. B. Nabors, a machinist at Liddell’s, was there and was shot also. How seriously he was wounded does not yet appear; it seems though, that ffe is not much hurt. Mr. Cole was attempting the arrest of a negro for the larceny of a bicycle be longing to another negro. Dr. Chadwick Not Arrested. New York, Special.—Dr. Leroy S. Chadwick, husband of Cassie L. Chadwick, arrived in this . country Satur day on the steamship Pretoria, ran tbe gauntlet of big crowds which had waited for hours to see nim, was haled to Hoboken police headquarters and to the recorder’s court, aud finally left for Cleveland, not as a prisoner, but as tbe guest of Sheriff Barry, who had come from Ohio with a warrant for the doctor's arrest which he did not serve. Increased Wages For Thousands. Pittsburg, Special.—According to in formation from a reliable source the United States Steel Corporation shows at the end of the quarter finished Sat urday an increase of nearly $2,000,UUO over the September quarter. With the resumption of work next Tuesday t.ie wages of over 1100,000 men will bo increased. Brownlow Gets Nomination. Nashville, Tenn., Special.—Republi cans of the Staie Legislature, in joint caucus have nominated Hon. Waller P. Biownlow, representative in Congress from the first district, as their candi date for the United States senatbrship. The Legislature is overwhelmingly Democratic and Senator William is. Bate will succeed himself. Torpedo Boats Leave. Chefoot By Cable.—Monday morning two Russian torpedo launches from Port Arthur arrived here. There are .seven Japanese torpedo boat destroyers in the harbor. Odds and Ends. Thoughtfulness donbles the value of a gift and often' halves its cost. There is nothing harder on the neives or worse for the clothes than packing water on both shoulders. When God has buried your sins it is a sin to dig them up again, even though 'it be only to show them to your friends. Inc man who made the biggest fool ot himself at election will be the first to denounce the excitement of a revival. ! Stoessel Named Terms. Washington, Special.—The Japanese legation received a cablegram from To kio, saying fj;t lie negotiations tor the surrender of Port Arthur bad been concluded and that details of the terms of surrender would be cabled later. The cablegram said tbe articles of capitulation were concluded at 4 o’clock Mon- oay evening. The advices received at the Japanese legation say that Gen eral Nogi accepted the terms of sur render proposed by General Stoessel. Military Honors for Stoessel. Tokio. By Cable.—Marshal Yama- gatia, chief of the general staff, under orders from the Emperor, has dis patched the following telegram to Gen eral Nogi: "When I respectfully in formed his majesty of General Stoes- sels proposal for capitulation, his majesty was pleased to state that Gen eral Stoessel had rendered commend able service to his country in the midst ot- difficulties, and it is his majestv’s w ish that military honors be shown to him .’ MAKES A GOOD REPORT Corporation Commission Gives Out Usual Statement. The Corporation Cohiniissioil this evening gave out its report to Gov ernor Aycock, for the present year. The report says that dating the yea# there were 380,310 iniies of main line of railroad; in operation. The gross earnings were $20,387,940; operating expenses, $12,848,929, net in come from operations, $7;539,011; net increase, $1,065,173 over last year’s operations.

Of these two w.ere passengers and 39 employes; 4,930,095 passengers wevc transported; 335 complaints were made to the commission, nearly all of which were disposed Of. North Carolina is the only State in which railways ■ are required to permit first and second class fares for passengers, and the laws were so amended as to require only one fare that could certainly be made, lower than the present first-class fare of 3 1-2 cents. -The average rate per pas senger mile on the leading roads in the State was about 23 cents, The num ber of banks has increased from 155 to 192. Fotir banks were put in re ceivers’ hands. EARNINGS AND EXPENSES. The Corporaliqn Commission’s re port says the earnings of railways dur ing the year were; Atlantic.

Raleigh, Special;—A little before aoon Thursday one Of the most be loved men in Raleigh, James H. Al ford, almost seventy years old, was shot down and fatally injured in his printing establishment by R. D. By num, a man of 35 years, one of his partners in the job printing business. Alford died Thursday night The oth er partner of the firm of Alford, By num & Christophers, namely, Charles D. Christophers, was present and wit nessed the shooting. The front door of the establishment is closed, and the terrible affair occurred in the printing room, which is separated from the front office by a door. Bynum is a hard drinker, and has been on a debauch for some days. It is stated that he went into tiiS place and began to curse Mr. Alford, and then made a motion as if to pull a pistol from a hip pocket. At this Al ford moved towards him, and then, according to Alfords statement, By num rapidly shot three times. The pistol must have been held very close to the body. Powder burns show where two bullets entered the right breast, one bullet remaining in the body and the other going upward and smashing a shoulder blade. The oth er bullet seems to have missed its mark. The old men fell between the cases, Christophers failing to stop Bynum from leaving the place, evi dently fearing that the drunken man would shoot him also. It seems that only one or two persons heard the noise of the shot, but did not locate it. Bynum Walked out of the front door and along East Hargett street. His dishevelled appearance led one or two persons who passed him to ask him what was the matter. He re plied in a drunken voice that he did not know, or something to that effect, and went on to the corner, turning down South Blount street a feiw blocks from the capital building. The first man who got into the inside of the place was led to enter by the appearance of Christophers, who in his shirt sleeves and his shoulder cov ered with blood,' ran out the front door. The man who entered aided Christophers and some others who came in in removing Alford to the of fice. North - State News.

RESCUED DY LIFE W After Three Days of Suspense the OrumeIzierfS Crew Go Ashore.

At daybreak on the Se'coHCl day, while laboring heavily among the breakers that ran mountain high and pounded the bed of sand under her hull, the crew' heard it cannon-like re port way down Ift the depths, The next moment there was fi sudden bulging up of her decks amidships, as though a volcanic eruption had oc curred in her hold. The engine was torn from its fastenings and slid- six feet aft. The boiler slid forward a like distance, The stern burled itself deep in the sflrtd, with the result that, rudder and propeller were both ground to pieces. Captain Nicholson needed no further evidence to tell him that the Drumeizier had broken her back and that his iight with the ocean had been lost.- There were six feet of water in the forward hold of the vessel and- eight feet aft. The storeroom, where the ship’s provisions were kept, had been flooded, and there was hardly anything on board for the crew to eat. Never theless, when a string of bunting was discovered fluttering from the signal halyards of the Drumelzier, the signal was not for life savers, but for boiler makers.The rescue of the c-rew was effected in three relays. Captain Nicholson was not.taken off until after nightfall. Even then, though the ship seemed to be on tbe verge of breaking up, he seemed te find it difficult to part from her. For three days, while he and his crew had Otood by the wreck, it has been swept by mountainous seas. Through Uie long nights the only ray of hope for the ship’s company shone out from the anchor lights of the .wrecking tug that has borne her com pany. . The first batch of the crew to leave the stranded vessel consisted of fifteen sailors and firemen and two boys. Tliey were taken off by the life savers from ihe Sandy Hoolt Station under the com mand of; Captain Patterson, and were brought to New. York Harbor on the ocean going tug Catherine Moran, of the Moran TowRig' Line, which landed them at the Atlantic Dock in Brooklyn at 7 o’clock in tfie evening. It is now conceded that the Drumcl- zier will be a complete wreck. It will, in the opinion of the life sav ers and surfmen, take weeks to remove the cargo, as it ,will be possible to work only between the oft-recurring storms which sweep the Atlantic coast at this season of the year.

Gbhtst inarVtl i.ri-q Wd Hides.-lrMl Knmji Story of Terrapiii'a Memory, That Brer Tarrypin hafe memory is proved by a story tokl hy Voung D. Hance, who owns ihe birthplace of Chief Justice Taney, on Battle creek, ill Calvert county. Mr. Kance keeps a small boat under a mulberry tree on the shore of the C.-eek, and on going to the boat early one morning he noticed a dry land terrapin busily engaged in eating a few mulberries which had fallen. Mr. Hance, wishing to assist Br'er Tarry- pin in getting his breakfast, gathered some mulberries and pitched them to him one at a time. In a very short time the terrapin began to catch the berries in his mouth exactly as they were thrown to him. Every day after ward a slight knock on the side of the boat would bring the terrapin out for his mulberries, and Mr. Hance often took his friends and visitors to see his pet. On one occasion a fresh young man threw a piece of tobacco to the terra pin instead of a mulberry. Br'er Tar- rypin retired at once in disgust, and for days afterward refused to come when called. Although Mr. Hance finally induced him to come again for his mulberries, Br'er Tarrypin remem bered tbe tobacco and would never ap proach unless Mn. Hance was alone.— Baltimore Sun.

A lady writes from an Indiana town: I -TiToni my earliest childhood I was a lover of coffee. Before I was out of my teens I was a miserable dj-spdPtie, suf fering terribly at times with my stomach.

Before the electiod every Repub lican newspaper and speaker was howling for Roosevelt and 15-cint cotton. Well we have got Roose velt and 6J cent cotton with a ten- deacy for lo ver prices still, and the silence of these one-time howlers has become so intense that it is oppressive. Lift up your heads and tell the people that you lied like Belzebub and could not help it because you are built that way. —Davie Times. The Davie Timrs, Davidson Dis patch and a few other Democratic papers have reported that 15 cent yarn so often that we verily be lieve they are ready to swear to it. We believe in being fair in poli tics as in all our dealings with each other. And the newspaper that resorts to these tricks like the demogogne loses in the longrtm. Now, to start with the facts: cot- was being sold during the campaign at something like ten cents per ponml, and no Republican was fool enough to say that President Roose velt would raise it to 15 cents, and they were not only not fools enough bnt they never promjsed the peo ple any such thing. When it comes to telling lies we are ot the opinion that Republi cans are not half in the lead as compared to our Democratic friends when it comes to misrepresenting and misleading the people. How about your crowd telling the peo ple in 1898 thatjyou were not going to pass any disfranchising law, and just as soon as you got the legislature you violated the promise. How about 1000 when you promised them that no white man would be disfranchised when at the last elec tion in 1904 more than thirty thou sand white men were stood aside with the convicts and negroes? An swer! Somebody else has lied, and lied like thunder, and it was not Republicans either—let the proees- sica pass. SALARY INCREASE Tliere seems to l>e a move on toot b.y the present Democratic legisla ture, and the leading Democratic newspapers of the State are en couraging, an increase of the Gov ernor’s, and Judges’ salaries.

Cnt down (lie number of districts, gentlemen, and then you can talk about in crease of salary. The masters are iu the saddle and the people will have to pay the fiddlers.

General Assembly W ill be IAsked to send One- Reception in Honor by Tvcln-Clty Club* There is a move on foot to have a delegation from the legislature come to Winston and escort Gover nor elect, R. B. Glenn, to Raleigh. A bill, or more likely a joint- res olution, to this effect will be intio- duced in both houses of the Gener al Assembly today, and it will, in all probability, be unanimously concurred in. It. is learned that should the Gen eral Assembly extend this courtcf-y the Twin-Oity Club, of this city, will give a reception in honor of the legislative escort and the Gov ernor-elect.—Winston Journal. Certainly, Governor Bob should be showed the way to the State Capitol at public expense. He might get lost or kidnapped fen route, and such a calamity would be terrible. W ith a “b ig bur - ri,us” and the treasury (ills run ning over, the proper thing to do is to vote the peoples’ money away, for just such jaunts. No doubt there are several Eastern solons who would like to visit the Twin- City, and by all means let the tax payers foot the bill. Dou’t think about the poor uufortnnate insane languishing in jails all over the State for want of room in the asy lums, but just vote out this money for escorts and increased salaries for Democratic officials. Don’t build a reformatory for youthful criminals as long as j ou can provide escorts and raise salaries at public expense. ^ion 11 what will it yield this year JilJi3 and properly and humanely that body i„ session?

We are anxious that a definte and effectual movement be made looking to the establishment of a graded school i u Mocksville. What ever prejudice once existed is, iu our opinion, passing away, and that the people are now ready to vote on the question so soon as they can. have the opportunity. We take it for grauted that the in telligence and patriotism of onr people will urge this all important matter to a successful termination. We will not insult that intelligence and patriotism by questioning a formidable opposition to the educa tion of the masses. That time h.as surely passed iu North Carolina. Gov. Aycock, in his message to the legislature, urges the educa tion ot the masses and recommends liberal aid wherever it is necessary ThewholeState is advancingii; bet tering educational facilities. Every where graded schools are being es tablisbed and long strides are mak ing towards pulling the State out oi the illiterate column, where it has been flonndcring so many years, and Mocksville must not be an ex ception to this mastering spirir. We have lagged behind long enough—too long—now, let us be up and doing. As we incidentally remarked last week, that unless belter facilities were had for the education of the youth of the State many thousands of splendid young men would be deprived of their birth right in 1908—the right to vote—ou account of not being able to read and write. So, let us all be patriotic, without the bugle’s call to arms, and show the • spirit that makes all Americans akin.

We have read with interest the Governor’s Message. Some por tions of it we can endorse, espec^ ially that part with reference to onr common schools, pensions and the asylumns. The Governor goec counter to the calamity wailer when he says all of our people ar-. prosperous. One thing that struck in , was the Governor di I not say that then was a surplus iu the State treasnr; of over $330,000, but he left thai impression by his way of stating it. On November 30th, 1904 there wa $333,683,330 in the State treasnry, but the old soldiers had not been paid the $200,003 due them, and the §200,000 for schools had no: been disbursed, and if Ihisbe true' then we are are actually short 0. money out of the last year’s taxes to meet the appropriations for tht fi cal year.

The Honorable. the General Assembly: I congratulate you as you enter Updtt the discharge of your ’duties that yob Had in the State an excellent condi tion. Her citizens of fell callings are jtvGsperous and the revenues of the Stalo are adequate for all the u*edS that you will he called upon IO supply. At the close of tln> last fiscal year on Ibe 30th of November there was In the State Treanury for general purpoae3 the sum of $333,683.30. the revnue machinery acts passed by the last Gen eral Assoinhly have worked admirably and liavo brought into the State Treas ury sufficient sums for oH purposes of government economically administer ed. You will therefore enter upon the eischargo of your duties unh*r,i'p£rod by a deficit and mucmptod by any large surplus to make extravagant appropriations. Certain taxes levied by the lust Gen eral Assembly have been declared by the courts unconstitutional. Ttiese taxes }j!c adverted to In the report of the State Treasurer and I concur id bis recommendations concerning Such changes ought to bb made in lave as will enable the collection u£ these (axes for thv future and likctvirie for the past Iwd years. The taxes so levied were proper, but of course they must he levied in a constit»uk>ml manner. TVith the few changes suggested. t!»p machinery and levenne acts --'JX per haps sa good as we can make them un der our constitution, The whole subject of taxation is one well worthy yoin* profuoundssi Consid eration. Tho burdens of government, always onerous are made more so by a wrong distribution of them. Thn tax ation In many of cur towns and ciliee when combined with the State, county and special taxes, is found to bn very burdensome and results in great Jo-is of revenue by reason of the refusal of the taxpayer to fully UpL his property iyben the tax rate is so high as to amount to something like confiscation. I commend to your most careful con sideration the able discussion of this scatter by the Stato Tax Commission. This commission has given much and profound study to the question of tax ation and its opinion is worthy o? Chq most serious consideration. The assessment o! railroad property for taxation in 18SS was $33,619 8(50: In 3903 this assessment was sn*de VTfil- 623.523, thus more tbatt doubling the assessment in a peviod of five years. This increased assessment of valivftad property at first glance might appear Io bo unjust, but wbQA 11: is considered ihat within the tiftio named Ibe gross earnings of tbri railroads of this State have increased, from 111,543,56$ Hi $V«>,- 610,815. Iho appearance of Injustice passes away and leaves one in doubt whether the railroads are even now as sessed at anything like their true value-. The Corporation Commission Itan man aged the assessment of railroad prop erly and the coB<scliou of taxes out Cf Iho railroads with great wisdom and without creating any serious friction between those groat corporal iUid the State.

Burlington, N. .T.—Denying with almost his last breath that he had niiv wealth other than the home In which he lived and the spacious grounds that surrounded his residence; Firman Du- bcl s estate, it is now estimated, will amount to between $300,000 and ¥500,- 000. Since his death relatives have inau gurated a search of the Duliel prem ises, which has resulted in the finding Pf more than 311000 in gold, silver and inoth eaten paper bilh; ehieffy of 3100 denomination. Stored in dusky recesses and out of the way nooks, laid between the leaves i-of books which were carelessly placed in unlocked receptacles, and hidden beneath the carpets which covered tli® floors iu his home, the iuouey has been found, and relatives nre confident that they have hierely begun their dis covery of treasures. In a peck measure in a room in Which there WaS countless rubbish, there was IjSriOOi aud ii cigar box held 32500 iii gold: A thin book, merely a pamphlet; contained, betweeii thirty- eight Consecutive leaves thirty-eight one hundred dollar bills. Old clothing in various trunks and closets had been receptacles for monej'. Living the life of a recluse for a score of years and having as his com panion a housekeeper who was his ward, Dubel was known by the resi dents to have considerable money, despite his vigorous denials, His for- tuue accumulated greatly during Iiis lifetime; but he received a large estate in liiie of descent froni ancestors, who in the days of the Revolution and prior thereto, received . enormous grants of laud from the English Crown and later from the State of New Jersey. Search among old papers brought to light scores of mortgages upon proper ty of residents ot the town aud county for miles around.' For years Dubel bad lived oil fare that caused due to wonder bow he kept body and soul together. Though known as a stingy mini, he is said to have been very kind to oid friends of his family. He owned much real estate in this town, and several aged and needy tenants have lived in these buildings for many years without pay ing rent. A substantial yearly income was re ceived by Dube!, from Iiis estate, and this was mostly’reinvested iir. bonds and mortgages. Holding to the old time ideas of his ancestors, he had no faith in banks and like institutions, aud his income, which has been accumulating for yeavs, has presumably ill! been hidden iu his home, which is a building more than one hundred years old. DnboTs funeral was attended by nearly every able-bodied resident of Burlington. Crowds of curious per sons visited the home of the deceased, expecting his Wili would be read before the burial ceremony Was held. Tlie will wiis not mentioned; FATAL 3200,000 FIRE.

POISONED HER HUSeANO Mrs, Cgrrie Joslyn, of Mason, Mieh. Aoeused of Murder. 3a« Hev Former Spouee AreeuIo For Twd Weeks VntiI Death CIaiuieri H im — Arrested With Her Children, Mason, Mich.—Murder so cold* blooded . that it took a woman two weeks to kill her husband was ad mitted, say the police, in a confession made by Mrs: Carrie Joslyn, who was brought hither from Wheatfield town ship and placed m the County Jail. Drop by drop, the alleged confession ?et forth, the wife gave arsenic to William Joslyn, whom she slew that die might become the bride of his runn assistant. Isaac Swan. A large limntity of the poison was found In Ills stomach. Slip put the powder first ’11 Iiis coffee, and Wlietl it sent him to red; day by day she hovered about 'dm ou the pretense of tending him, mly to pour more and more of the deadly drug into his pain-racked body. Through that . whole fortnight she watched him as a cat a mouse, not ing the progress of the poison's work, with 110 pity for his hourly agony. iIie reckoned only on the length of lime necessary to cause his death without detection! and when at iast !lie end arrived she turned to the man Ior whom she had committed tile crime 1 nd her heart had room only for !reams of him and her future witli him. Mrs. Joslyn told the police, they as sert, Swan had conspired with her to murder her husband. The two long had been attached to each other, and it first, apparently, they thought of waiting till chance should break down the barrier between them, But Joslyn was too robust ftnd the prospect of Iiis natural death too remote for their patience. Ko they calmly, coldly planned his violent taking-off and lost 110 time in carrying out their resolve. Marry they, must they felt. Flight together did not occur to them. Mur der was easier of accomplishment, and seemingiy there was nothing in the idea to give either a shock. From the moment the twain agreed ou death Josiyn’s doom was sealed as irrevoc ably aS if his neck was stretched un der the guillotined failing blade. Swan bought the arsenic anfl gave it to the woman. It was tied in fair white paper with a neat string. Not a shudder passed over her as she took Ihe packet of death from the hands of her clandestine admirer. Josiyn’s coffee next morning contained the first dose.

They are working for it in Charlotte. The preachers are halt for and half ar rayed against it. It may be the golden mean, who knows?-It looks better than the gin-mill dis pensary or the grog-shop and whis key is prescribed by prohibition doctors in many conditions of the sick. The extremist ■ have, however, taken alarm and will op pose it. Bro. Bailey favors one dis pensary, of sow-paw kind, in every county. Sueh a dispensary as some of the folks want in OharloHe comes nearer our idea of a temper ance dispensary of the liquid than anything yet proposed—that is, if we understand it. There are so many tricks that are vain a.nd ways that are dark about this liquor business, with the grinning Watts law be hind it ail. that we get mighty sus picious of every move the liquor or anti-liquor chess playeis make. L a ter —The Anti-Saloon Leagne of Charloitemet insolemu conclave las. Friday and discovered there was “ powerful’’ opposition to the Medical Dispensary scheme, whieh might endanger any liquor project in that town. So the fellow who is always “on the inside” was theie ready with a substitute, and sub mitted a well prepared bill—of its kind—to be presented to the legis lature. This bill bit the League nail on the head and it was uuanimousely adopted. It hasn’t any name. It simply proposes that any reputable drug gist, or any other reputable gen tleman cau go into the business of seltiD g liquor on physicians pre scriptions—indiscriminately.There are no strings to the doctors and very few to the druggist, From this bill it looks as if a man could buy a pint oragaiieu, just as be pleased and as often as he pleased on the same old preserption—and this bill is eudorsed by those tem perance people! It looks to us as if the new kind of liquor dealers were tightiug the old saloon Kiu l in order to get con trol of the sale of liquor,— all, too, under the “divine” protection of the Watis law—that gigantic tem perance fiaud! That Frauclulant W.atts Law. The Charlotte Observer, the Ral eigh Post, the Wilmington Messen ger and some other Democratic ne vspaper are pointing out the de fects of the Watts law—objection able features—features that Repub lican speakers and Republican pa pers fonght with might and main during the campaign; but the po litical fiat of the bosses went forth to “stand pat” on the Watts law, and these reputable newspapers re ferred to fell into line and tacitly, if not strenuously defended the law, but all the time damning it as we Republicans d id . as a fraudnlant temperance measure and a bad law generally; but what surprises us a little is the reading of a.‘ ‘co nscience , T o see thee there on isle so bare To the Sailor. Oh, sailor boy, my only joy, Thine eyes do overflowing seem Like flooded vale or blooming dale In the moon’s pale beam. Thy classic brow before me now, In aspect pale and lone W ith modest grace before m y lace Stands like chizzled stone In loudest gales and mournful wails The winds bemoan thy fate; In desert wild on barren iile There they say you wait. There you w ait with captain, mate, While loud the sea-gulls scold The mocking waves, the angry graves Of seaman brave and bold. The lrieuds of the Watts law vrillawend it if they can. and take from it some of the Democratic po litical features which the .’.epubli- cans {ought during the campaign; while the politicians will not only try to defeat such, but amend the law -.md make it more offensive po litically than ever. Between them —all Kilkenny cats—they will fight-and scratch uutil the Watts Uw will look like an old bloke and his meazly “yaller” dog. Mr. JXioley gets off the follow ing on the President’s recommen dation for a whipping post for wife beating: “So it is with Uncle Sam. If he begins to lick wife beaters, be fnrehe’s been at it long he won’t have any time Pr anything but the’ whipping post He’ll be in hit ehirt sleeves all day long slash ing away at counterfeiters, illicit distil'ers, postal thieves an’ ditu- mycRits,” Inthatthat Gov.

W hat are the man agcrs of our insane asylums for if not to ascertain these facts, or at least to obtain knowledge of what is needed? They ask for what they conceive to be adequate appropri ations. If they are not competent, or cannot be trusted turn them out and put others in who are compe tent and can be trusted. There should be no hesitation in provid ing room, medical treatment and maintenance for this class of people if it takes every dollar iu the treas ury. We have been told so often from the stump and through the uewspapeis, during the A.vcock ad administration that these people were being cared for that the pub lic is shocked now to learn that hundreds of insane people are in oounty jails and other hundreds in county poor houses and private homes uncared for as they should he iu asylums for (she insane, where proper treatment can be had— Shame on such missmanagemeofc and brutal treatment of the in sane! editorial” iu Friday’s issue of the Observer on “Repeal of the Jug- Law.” Ot course we were told during the campaign that the law was an “accident” and it was de signed only for tone counties in the State, which had applied to the legislature for the exclusion of**jng- liquor” sent into their counties, aud now something has come over the spirit of the Observer’s dream. Listen to what it says in editorial referred to: There Is no question of the honesty and good faith of the draftsmen, and promo ters of the original blit; they Intended It to apply only to the counties nwmed In ir. Wneu It w a s ascertained that as p«S4ed U applied to the State* they were surprise4* and Icezplalned by somebody that iu trans cribing le the typewriter inuoceutly struck one or inserted certain words aud that it was through this honest error that Its scope was enlarged beyond what was in tended* The Observer* In Its Innocence aud credulity, accepted this explanation? but has sluce had good reason to regret It and to reach the conclusion that that the bill was purposely doctored. It would be discourteous, per haps, to say the editor knew this during the campaign, but an elee- tiou was on and he found a politi- excuse for not saying then what he says now. H eturther characterizes the law as a fraud and demands its repeal in the name of honesty. He dubs it a “sneak-bill.” and he believes that other peogle (some good pious souls—as the Observer exonerates the draftsmen and promoters of the bill)were guilty of fraudnlantly foisting this law npon the people without their consent or without the asking. In >ur opinion the whole Watts scheme is made up of the design and spirit of this very act. Tne Raleigh Post is no less bit ter iu its denunciation of the “in corporation” feature; that feature that locates distilleries on farms and at cross-roads in order that rich Democrats can build big dis tilleries and the law destroy small properties in the couutry—putting money in the pockctsof the rich and taking the bread out of the mouths of the children of the poor. Oh, the Wattslaw is getting ven tilating in the house of its friends in great shape! Why dost thou entreat me? Dost thou not know the waves that flow Enthrall my soul to thee? Ohl lad of sea, come back to me; Alone I sit and grieve, My thoughts im part mybleeding heart No comforts to relieve. —J e a n d e V e r e.

IE in Of IE SIflIi Great Crowds Attended ilie Inaugu ral Exercises Wednesday CEREMONY WAS VERY IMPRESSIVE The New Governor Made a SpJendid Appearance and Was, as Usual, the Master of the Crowd. Haleigh, Special.—Long before the arrival of the Winston train which brought Governor Glenn to Raleigh, at 12:25 o'clock, the union depot was crowded. The several bands stood in readiness. When the train came in and Ihe gates were opened the people fiooded through into the car shed and struggled for positions from which the Governor and his party might he seen. The Forest Hill Band, uniformed in olive green and gold, headed the pro cession, followed by the Third Regi ment Band. Only one company of mil- U a had made entrance into the rail road yard—the Maxton Guards. They had Mr. Glenn’s picture pinned upon their breasts. A dozen or so Confeder ate veterans followed the soldiery and then came Mr. Glenn. “Three cheers for Governor Glenn!” cried Insurance Commissioner James R. Young, but the people did not catch on, and the re sponse was faint. The Governor occupied a carriage with his mother, a beautiful old lady who looks far younger than her years, his wife, whose fine black eyes and features indicate a resolute character, and his brother, Mr. E. T. B. Glenn, of Georgia. In the next carriage came the Governor’s daughter and niece and their escorts, and behind these a procession of carriages containing promi nent people. Under the exhiliarating influence of martial music they pro ceeded to the Yarboro, where Mr. Sher wood Higgs informed the occupants of Qach carriage as they alighted that the Governor’s party would in a few mo ments resort to the capital. BIG CROWD AT THE CAPITOL. At the capital. round about the Vanqe statute, was gathered in waiting an im mense crowd. Tlie young ladies of the Baptist University occupying the vantage ground. Just at the time ap pointed for the Governor’s arrival there, the unsympathetic heavens began to weep and hundreds of umbrellas went up. Huddling under the shelter, the folks waited until word came that the ceremonies would be conducted in the Academy of Music, The exercises were held at the Aca demy of Music. The auditorium was packed. There was a tremendous demonstra tion when Governor Glenn came forward- to be sworn. Dozens of Qteftn flags sprang into evidence and the ac tivity of the hats and handkerchiefs and stamping was a sight to see. This done, Governor Aycock advanced to the speaker’s table. He looked over the 3.000 people and they grew quiet “Ladies and gentlemen,” said he, “I have the honor to present to this mag nificent body of people Hon. Robert B. Glenn, the Governor of North Caro iina.” Governor Glenn's speech occupied 45 tninutes, beginning at 2.15. it was in terrupted frequently With applause, the heartiest being when he turned to Governor Ayeock and said: “The mate can well say to the retiring ad- ministration, ‘Well done, thou good and faithful servant.' ” When the people hurst into cheering Governor Aycock s face flushed and his eyes filled with sudden tears. The next biggest applause was in the response to this: "I.et Hs take no backward step in the edu cation of the masses.” The new Governor was in fine trim, dressed fault iessly, Ms voice good, and himself the master of the crowd as usual, It was touching to see the intense interest and pride with which his mother, even more than his wife and daughter leaned forward to catch every word and glanced from time to time at the crowd. She was unfortunately behind a lady with a big hat, and had to sit In an uncomfortable position in order to see her boy. After taking Uio oath of office Gover nor Glenn proceeded with his inau gural address, of which the following is a Phrt: The Inaugural Address, Gentlemen of the General Assembly. Fricsids and Fellow Citizens: Four yeai'3 ago, at the close of an administration that engendered bitter ness between the races, and promoted riot instead of peace, the present re tiring administration commenced ils arduous laoors, under an amendment to our organic law, far-reaching in its provisions, and untried as to its re sults. Enemies of the measure pre dicted that dire calamity tvoum follow Hs enactment and enforcement, that race prejudice would be deepened, and lawlessness and disorder prevail; while its friends claimed, —at by cur tailing the negro’s power at the ballot box, and eliminating ignorant and irre sponsible blacks from participating in estate and county government, order would be brought out of chaos, and peace and safety assured. The effects of the amendment have been most beneficial. There is now no friction between the racer, and cur Slate, after bitter turmoil, stands re newed and strengthened in all matters involving its material, educational and moral welfare. Today, no one save the vicious, who desire to use the ne gro^ vote for corrupt purposes, would Wilimgiy see the amendment repealed and a great majority of our people if the constitution of the United States should demand it, would rather give up a part of our representation, in Congress than return to conditions that confronted us prior to its enact- icent. FOUR YEARS OF PROSPERITY. Looking backward, we see a four- year era of State prosperity; for whih we bavc hoard of yars in the. far East race troubles and labor dissensions in sC^ StatC5,RI1!l iuuyF that pestilence and famine have come with ruin and death into other lands, none of these evils has troubled us, biit our people, happy and contented, have been thank- ITil fcr mercies received, and rejoice in their intelligent progress. VrlJ u y Products have usually broug .t lair prices, enabling our far mers to pay their debts, and improve their lands.

Truly we can sorrow over “this old roan great,” who as soldier, ora tor, state&ttidr. and citizen in whr and in peace, ever stood for IhS defense, upbuilding and glory of the State he loved ~s0 welL Looking to the future, we will not attempt in detail to map out any fixed policy for this administration, prefer ring. to meet emergencies us they come—“sufficient, unto the day is the evil thereof’—only BftggeStmg certain measures that may aid In our devel opment. I-Iere the Iiovernor discussed at longth the Zifferont problems that confront the State in an able and ex haustive maimer, closing with those remarks directed to the niAmfohrs. oi the Legislature. Upon ybu, gentlemen of the General Assembly, devolve most grave and im portant duties: Fresh frbni the people in whom our Constitution vests all po litical power, you know their wants, and I feel tha.t the members now sit ting will be sufficiently brave, broad minded and patriotic to meet every difficulty and overcome every obstacle hat stands in the Wfty pt the Upbuild ing and betterment of Oiit State; Your power la truly great* aiid should be exercised wisely and With discretion, for you can enact, ainfchid, suspend or repeal all iaVvs, thus having in your keeping the weal or woe of the State.

As chief of the Executive Depart ment it is made my duty to co-operate with the other branches of tha State government, in all that tends to the State’s welfare-. With fid desire to in fringe ttpoil or 'usurp any of the pre rogatives vested in the other two branches, I will strictly adhere to my duties, and from time to time inform the General Assembly of the affairs of the State and recommend to It such measures RS to me seem expedient and best. Whether the Legislature rejects or adopts My slig^UstibUs is ft. matter for its Wisdoms but as the Chief Execu tive of the State I will enforce the laws you enact, and hold till who refuse to obey them to Iho strictest accountabili ty.

Newspapers with their opportunities of acquiring knowledge and ascertaining the public: will, can materially as sist me by rrienaiy suggestions and timely warnings. I, therefore , ask their help au.d will appreciate Ui1Mr' kindness.

Grace Corwin, 12 years old, with her little fcrcthcr VAae,' Of Los An geles, Ca!., v ^ndered up into lonely Sepulveda canyon the other afternoon.

Tbfire was a fiuttsr of wings, a rush, and before the startled tramp could recover from his surprise Polly had fastened her crooked claws into the collar of his coat, and was strik ing at his face with her beak.

Let onr friends get us up some clubs and help The Rec ord as well as themselves. know when we get iueo the habit of sinilingit is hard to frown or to look cold facts in the face. W hatdoes this smite indicate? For one thing it means that our attempt to aronse au interest in the future growth of the town is abor tive. The thing has been tried be fore and it fell with a dull thud and stuck in the mud; but we are not to be “intimidated” in this advocacy for the good of the men who do the smiling. If any peo ple are to be benefitted in an in crease of population and added wealth it is the men who own prop erty. There is no deuyiug the fact that manufactories make towns rich and intellectual. Enterprise of a public and private character enhances the value of property and men who are only comparitive- Iy rich, become richer. The five thousand or ten thousand dollars laid away or invested in real estate finds an outlet to its employment and doubles its earning power in a short time, Bmile, it you will, but if there is a single argument against this statement in the minds of the “smilers” we would be glad to hear from them. Is the town of Mocksville so lost in the race of mecerial prosperity that the people who pooh-pooh any effort to aronse acommendable spir it of enterprise must fence her in and whitewash the fence!—save at the spigget and waste at the buug- hole! We don’t believe it, dispite the smite of sarcasm. Now,, for instance, every town when it gets into the rut like we are in is dominated by a few lead ing spirits and their word is law. Iu fact it is useles to buck up against them.for they hold the key stand, to go on some of the switches at Granite Quarry at the present. Mrs Chas. Lyerly, of Granite Quarry, is real sick. The farmers of Rowan Academy precinct are considering the ques tion of holding their cotton for bet ter prices, and will send a delegate to Salisbury next Saturday. The friends of Mrs. Movie Hol- j shouser made her some good pres ents over the holidays. We have such prosperous times around Salisbury that eggs go at 25e. Run the bens, boys. Mr. Nathan Brown is in his 60s. The other day he swapped a horse for a mule; a trade of the kind he never made before. Not much of a jockey, is he! Rev. B. L. Bame has moved from Salisbury to Mooresville and will go into the “merhintile” busi ness. We feel very much compliment ed to be a friend of Plow Boy and hope he will move The Record in that section.

Mocksville Cfaair Campany re sumed ivork Monday. After tak ing stock the directors held a meet ing last week and declared a nice dividend. Glad this enterprise is Sb such a good condition. Sorry that Mr. F. M. Johnson, who has beeu clerking for Mr, J. L. Clement for several years has had to give up his position on ac count of his eyes. Mr Johnson went to Greensboro last week to eoiisnlt Dr. Banner. The Furniture Co. of this place recently held a meeting and de clared a dividend, how much we do not know. Mocksville needs more enterprises. We hope to see ether plants established here dur ing the present year. In next week’s issue we will pub lish a communication from our Rowan county’ correspondent, “Ob server.” We want to thank “ Ob server” in advance for the kinjJ things said of The Record; also, for the good work he is doing to in crease its circulation.

Now, it these, same men would turn tbeir atten tion to the thought: “ What can be done to better our condition!” or how cau we get into line with other towns that are booming and that have doubled their populations in the last three or five years and ad ded hnndieds of thousands of dol lars to their wealth! Theseare the questions these good, but mistakeu citizensshould ponder. Whodoubts the result if they would become the public advocates to the upbuilding of Mocksville? It is not a fact that an effort of this kind would fail. It would go through as certain as the sun shines. We must awaken the interest first; men must believe it can be done and pull every string to do it There never was a town that did not have withiu its bor ders some broad minded man whose character was a guarantee to suc- ces if he put his shoulder to the wheel and familiarized liimselfand the people with the scheme. This town surely is an exception if there is not such a mau here. We could name t he man in Hickory —the town we chose to hold up as an example for Mocksville—were it necessary; and before he saw the “light” he too, smiled, and a big ger “haasayamper”or-tmoss-back” could not be fonnd; and now he is the shrewest-, keenest and “over grand” manipulator for the up building of that town we have knowledge of, and what has it done for him?- made him very rich; while through his efforts to push things to completion other men by scoree have also grown, or becom ing rich,, aud the whole population has prospered. Enterprise begets enterprise; one intellectual or moral scheme gives birth to another,—along with the wealth producing elements, educa tion, morality and religion rise to the very height of the dreamer’s dream.

And what does it mean! It means that this particular dis tiller located at Ashevillestates that he furnished to the Democratic campaign committee of Buncombe county, during the late election campaign SIX HUYDRED GAL LONS OF WHISKEY to be dis tribnted to voters by Democratic heelers in the interest of the Dem ocratic candidates of Buncombe county and for this the distiller and his distillery were to be protected. The Post makes out that he has vi olated the revenue law, and so he has, but should the Democrats who induced him to violate the law and furnish six hundred gallons of the rotten stuff with which to carry the county, go Scott free?. A bill has passed the legislature, or is on its way to that goal, to kill small distilleries in Buncombe coun- connty—the grievance of this par ticular distiller -and in the advo cacy of this measure Den ocratic statesmen went out of their way to laud the Senator and the two Kep legentatives of that county to the sun-kissed skies of the oid Blue Ridge,—praise them as Christian gentlemeu, honorable, clean hand ed men—legislative certificate of good character (perhaps they need ed it)and now .of course,no man will dare say either of the honorable gentlemen had anything to do with the distribution oi the whiskey to the voters of Bnncombe county . But from what we know of So licitor Mark W. Brown and Judge Shaxv (if he should hold the court) when court, time comes, this scan dalous affair will lie sifted to the bottom and if Senator Webb and the two Representatives had no hand in it, sombo'dy else bad, and they hold their honorable seats by ‘virtue” of the whiskey-guzzling Democrats .who voted for them,and and if there is law on the StatuU books covering the case the guilty parties will be brought to the bar of justice. A ud what does the measure meau? It is only another turn of the rich man’s grinding wheel to crush the poor man, mid in perIect accord with the Watts law that favors the rich and robs the poor man. It des troys I be small distillery and ena bles the big distiller to increase the manufacture and enlarge his out put,- discriminates between the rich distiller and the fellow of the little distillery. It legislates one man out of business to increase the coffers of the other man. Aud where is the temperance feature of this bill? Yon can’t see it with a powerful mental telescope. In fact the shoe is on the otberfoot ■it is a liquor measure,- a Demo cratic liquor ineasnre, pure and simple; because, in addition to rob bing the poorer man it. increases the quantity of sow-paw to any ex tent- desired; whereas, there was a limit to the capacities of the dis tilleries.

The editor of the -official organ of tho Junior Order ot United American Mechanics, published at Raleigh, scores the editor of the Lexington Dispatch and Labor Commissioner for the State, unmer cifully, for making the public and official statement that he had found but one violation of the child labor law in the State. He accuses him of not doing his duty or smuggling the facts. It is pointed out that there are hundredsof violations and a demand is made that, the Com missioner do his dnty or stop draw ing his salary. . As to Democratic Majorities. F rom th e C h a rlo tte O bserver. The following paragraph occurr- od in our Washington special print ed yesterday. “More talk was heard today to the effect that North Carolina Re publicans are assuming a great deal when they profess to derive so much comfort fro n the showing they made in North Carolina in Novem-j ber, in as much as the Democrats made substantial gains over the Bryan vote. In fact, the Demo crats of North Carolina made a bet ter showing in respect togaiurthan did the party in any other State in the Uuion.” The Observer’s comment: “The Tar Heel Republicans are not as confident as they wonld have it appear. They know that the better account- they can give of gains made, the greater will be their pull at the Federal pie-coun ter. It is gratifying to know that the Democrats made such notable gains, and they did not exert them selves either,” Just the other day the Observer- contained an editorial characteriz ing the *• Jug-Law” a fraud, a “sneak bill” and showed it up as such most conclusively for which the people of the State thank the editor. Following this timely edito rial came another ot like character, over the caption of “ Au Error Re garding the Bond Issue,” which also came most timely. “Savoyard” that ranch vaunted Washington correspondent-and probably the bitterest man iu Americaagainst Republicans and all that Republi canism stauds for, took occasion to vilify the whole Republican party on account of the Stale bonds ac quired by .South Dakota, and for which the State was sued and the case coining before the Supreme Courtof the United States, South Dakota won, and the matter is now pendiug in the legislature for ac- tiou; but this man, “Savoyard,” charged that the bonds were issued by what he is pleased to call the “Carpet-Bag Goverument of North Carolina,” and these are some .of his iufl unatory outbursts: “ Instead of establishing and li censing a gambling hell as a gentle manly community that needed the money would do South Dakota ac cepts as a gift alleged obligations of an infamous carpet-bag govern that stands on the footing of forged bauk checks,” The Observer very gracefully calls the gentleman down, and pro ceeds to give a history of the issu ance of these bonds, which shows thac the “good old Democratic” party government issued them for the building of the VYestern North Carolina" Railroad, which is one ol the principle links in the great Southern Railway system. We mention these two acts of the Observer to show that the editor in ‘big things” is fair and honest; but right here is where we stumble, or is it a case of Dr. Hyde and Mr. Jekyl -when Dr. H ydeis out Mr. Jekyl is in. The piece quoted at the head of this article does not be long to the family of “big things,” and we must think Dr. Hyde was out, for there is nothing farther from the facts, and the assumption of acting sponsor for the Republi cans shows au arrogance not famil iar iu Dr. Hyds’s writings. Hoxv- ever.eognizant of thi facts it is sur prising to read the closing liues: “ It is gratifying to know that the Democrats made such notable gains and they did not exert themselves, either.” Now for the figures. The elec tion figures in lhis state show that iu 1900 Mr. Bryau received 175,- (»00 votes, in 1802 Chief Justice Clark received 132.000, showing a Democratic loss'of 51.000; in -1901 Mr. Parker received 124,000; an other Democratic loss of 8,000; a total loss of 62,000 in four years, while Republicans have approxi mately gained in the past four years 50.000 WHITE VOTES I Now, if figures lie, and white votes wou’t count, then the Demo crats have “gratifyingiy” gained, but here is a “distressing” loss to be accounted for, and all. the elec tion machinery in their hands. This “masterful” way the lead ing Democratienewspapers have of admitting nothing and claiming everything will probably not cease until the Republicans sweep the State; as they are going to do in the blessed year of 1908. If Bob Glenn, Aycock, Simriions Kitchin and a whole “raft” of the “able defenders” of Democracy, didn’ “ exert” .themselves, wedon’t know what they weie doing cavort ing over the State. It is true “ there wasn’t a nigger in it-’ but Bob Glenn’s typewriter and Win ston’s nigger, George W hite--that we know of; and it is also true that they failed toilluminate theatmos- phere with Josephus Daniels’ red- hell-fire; failed to kill a score or two of niggers and terrorize the white population with red-shirt brigades and shot-guns. If that is what is meant by “didn’t exert themselves, either, we shy our cas ter; but those dark days are gone never to return, and through them the Observer maintained its dig nity, and while partisan was de cent from a Republican’s viewpoint and to this day retains their res pect. But, perhaps, comparative ly speaking that is why the Obser ver sees no “exertion” in it, and we conclude it is a Simon pure case The eorn-meal meas ire before the legislature fixes the weight per bushel at 48 pounds instead of 46 pounds, the present weight.

Probably the most notable polit ical episode that has come before Just as we thought when the dis- the people, growing out of the late franchising amendment was adopt election is that ot the action, or ed, sooner or later the legislature rather, tbe speech ofHon. William P. Barksda e, a Parker Elector, before the Electoral College of that State, iu which he gave expression to hisinmost thought when he said: “ Were I free and untramiueled, I would not vote for Parker, If it was a safe Democracy, then it was insane.” Supremely disgusted with Park er and the “insane” Democratic party, this Elector wonld, if he could have done so. cast his vote for Roosevelt—not because lie lov ed Roosevelt so much as he lex ed Parker less. Such a spectacle has never before presented itself to this peiple, and the new phase in politics makes it the more no table and, with all, hopeful xvhen a representative Republican can impress such men and call forth such utterances at such ciiticul iim; s. Bryanhasdone but little less siiue the election. Hs sees much in Roosevelt to admire and he is giving expression to his ad miration iu his Commoner; but it is not true—the other half—that President Roosevelt is bigger than his party; he does not so regard himself. The party made Roose velt what he is—the American lea der of the greatest political partx in the xvorld, and it was as great xvhen this givat leader was in hi- swaddlingclothes—when A braham Lincoln, of beloved memory, mar shaled his hosts and saved the Union. No mau ex-er was—ever xvill be—bigger than tbe Republi can party xvilh its long Ii..e of he roic dead and living statesmen— chief among these stands Theodore Roosevelt, so admirably fitted to the situation as the standard bear er of tbe party, and for this, and a thousand other things the Barks dales are shoving their heads above the turbulent waters of Democracy avowing themselves iu line xvith Roosevelt and xvhat he stauds for. would make a Iaxv that taxes for public school !purposes must go to the race paying the taxes; thac is, the money, derived from the col ored people must be applied to the education of their children- white money to be applied to the educa tion of the white children. Buch a law discriminates against the ne gro and the purpose is to keep them in ignorance so that the young men coming of age xvill come under the educational qualification and be de prived of their vote, and yet, Ay- coek threatened to resign the gov ernorship two years ago if the leg islature adopted such a, measure. Will Bob Glenn dare be as patriotic? A mau was killed the other day in this county. Shot down in c,l i blood. There jvas no coronor’s iu qnest and the man ar aigned foi the murder had a preliminary ex amination—or a farce of one—and the" magistrate found no cause to bind him to a higher court; and yet this man came to MocksviIle the night of the killing for the purpose of surrendering himself. VYhat about all this? Is there not some thing serious in the taking of hu man life, though that life may not be held dear in that community?— there is left the majesty of the laxv, and due process slionld be had or there xvill soon be little respect for laxv and murder will be committed again with even less provocation. The spirit of lawlessness is easily aroused, and it runs riot when it is turned lose. HOLLISTER'SRocky Bountain Tea Nuggets A Busy MedIdns for Busy People.

RYDALE’S TONIG A REAL CURE FOR M ALrA R IA . Zt has recently been discovered that the germs that produce Malaria, breed and multiply iu the intestines and from, there spread throughout the system by means of the blood. This fact explains why IDilaria is hard to cure by the old method of treatment. Quinine, Iron, etc., stimulate the nerves and build up the blood, but do not destroy the germs that cause the disease. Bydale’s Tonic has a specific effect upon the intestines and bowels, freeing them from all disease breed ing microbes. It also kills the germs that infest the veins and arteries. Itdrlvesfrom the blood all poisonous m atter and mniron it xleh and healthy. RY DALE'S TONIO is a blood builder, a nerve restorer, and a Malaria destroyer. Try it; it will not disappoint you. manufactured bt The Radical Remedy Company, HICKORY. N. C. F R O M R O W A N . republican literature . It is a" well-known fact that good Republican literatnreis much need ed in Rowan and Iredell counties, and there never was more opportune time to circulate such litgrature than the present. There is some confusion over the changes anil number of periodicals published in Salisburjr; the people hardly know which to take, if any; and these are all from the same political stand- point. Now we don’t wish to be antagonistic; but we think it is more consistent and business-like to look after something that has the right ring about it; we should not -encourage our abuse, which will come again in the next cam paign. The Record, a good, clean paper will be delighted to pay a pleasant visit once every week for a whole year for only 50 cents. The price alone should be an in ducement. Now we want to say a word to the readers of The Record, and es pecially to those in Rowan and Ire dell, where, heretofore, the litera ture has all been against ns. We have'gained ground as it hasbeen, and will gain much faster with the right kind of literature, and now is the time to circulate the same. I will, therefore, kindljr ask every reader of this paper to see how ma ny subscribers he can get for it. VVe see that Ilin one batch went in from Rockwell lately. Who cau better thai I We should also get correspondents at various points of these counties and thus get the news through the paper from each other. There is another way to look At this matter. Do we really believe that Republicanism is the best thing for our country? Then itis a duty of ours to encourage this kind ot literature, and loyal citi zens, it isathingnot to be looked at lightly. JIneh is now said about the ‘ 6-cent cotton,and some would have the blame to rest on the great Re publican victory iu November, and little is Siiid a bout over-prod nctiou when we have about 13,000,003 bales; but when we had about 11,- 000,000 bales, and cotton 5 cents, then it was over-production. Then, too, everything as -well as cotton was down in proportion. Everything else ii holding its own but the cottou, and that is caused bjr the abundant crop. Itisaclear fact "that the history of the United States for 40 years proves that the- source of prosperity rests in Re publicanism. What then about that kind of literature? JIany of the good citizens of Rowan and Ire dell are wanting something of that kind right nowr. And here is a good, clean paper, worthy of being iu every family. Jlany will take it if is presented, and you will be doing your neighbor a favor by do ing so. People will read something and soemthiug that is not so good as this paper, unless yon put it iu the place of something worse We should not look upen Re publicanism as a mere thing to p ay with,but that the best iuterests of our country depend upon it, and our success in that direction will depend largely upon the interest we take in our literature. M e have hail a wonderfnl success, but plans are being laid to swamp ns in the next campaign, and if we keep on reading literature that is against us at t,.e neglect of our own we will aoon feel the truth of the ex pression, “evil communications cor rupt good manners.” It. is Repub lican literature that makes Repub lican votes, and we have a' chance to circulate'our literature in these counties as we never bad before. We should not wait for something better, or nearer home; this is good enough, and it is best not to intro duce too many papers, bnt select some good one like The Record, then fall in line with it, aud push it to perfection and the greatest usefulness. Say. boys, wake up, and let ns see what we "can do for. our literature by trying to put The Record in every family. Observer . . ■ THE DIAtfpND CORE.
