AN ODD AD.
' ‘‘Nothing succeeds like perse
verance,” said Mark Twain at a
dinner. “ When the luck seems
most against us then we should
work and hope hardest of all. In
moments of discouragement, let us
remember my old friend, Henry
PIumley, of Virginia City.
“Henry Plumley ran a collar
factory. ‘ Times reputed to be hard
with him. When his factory, which
was very heavily insured, burned,
down, there was every indication
that he had set the place on fire
himself in order to get the insur
ance money. Virginia City was
the soul of honor in those days.
Shocked beyond words, it rose eu
masse, seized Henry Plumley, put
a halter round his neck and lynch
ed him.
“But he did not die. The sher
iff arrived in time and cut him
down. He was tried and found
guilty, and served a term in jail.
“On his release you wouldn’t
have thought he’d returned to
Virginia City again, eli? He did,
though, He came back, reopened
his collar factory, and prospered.
“ What gave,him his start was
the odd advertisement with which
he announced his return to busi
ness among us. Preceded by a
brass band,'Henry, in a great gilt
chariot, burst upon our streets.
He sat on a kind of throne, and be
held on a crimson cnshion in his
lap an old collar. Above the col
lar on a crimson banner was waved
his inscription in huge letters of
gold:
‘This is the collar we wore when
we were lynched. It saved our
life. Be wise in time and use no
other. At all retailers 10 cents
apiece, three for a quarter.”
Strangle! Three of Her Children.
; Buffalo, N. Y., Sept. 24,—Mrs
Bertha Mund, aged 37 years, early
to-day strangled her three chil
dren, Christopher, aged 8, Helen
aged 2 and Freda aged 8 months,
to death at their home in Clinton
street. Immediately after commit'
ting the deed she went to the Fenm
sylvania Railroad yards where
her husband, Frederick Mund is
employed as a member of a wreck
ing crew, and informed him of her
action. Mrs. Mund was placed
under arrqst. The children were
sleeping when their mother de
stroyed them.
She murdered the hoy, Christo-
phef, first. Shewrappedablanket
about his head and then tied
clothes line about his neck, turning
it around three times and then
drew it light and fastened it.

Making it Warm for Moonshiners.
Shortly after the killing of Bill
Stafford in Partee Little’s blind-
tiger saloon near Taylorsville, by
Jacob Gant, a young man who was
attending the saloon, a few weeks
ago, the fact that there was much
blockade liquor being sold in Alex
ander county was aired in the pa
pers, as was thecircumstances lead
ing up to the murder. The good
citizens of “Little Alex” have
been considerably stirred up ever
since the matter was made public,
and since the tiine of the murder
the county officers have been criti
cised for not enforcing theilaw and
the best citizens have been on
move towards making a crusade
against the liquor dealers. And
the reports in regard to conditions
in Alexander have attracted con
siderable attention.
From all accounts it is a rather
strenuous time in Alexander just
now for the illicit distillers and
liquor dealers. Court was in ses
sion last week, and it is said that
Solicitor Frank Linney was in Tay
lorsville issuing subpoenas and pre-
paringfor business. SheriffAdams
has also been busy, and it is said
that things are getting so warm that
some of the citizens arri hunting the
high timbers. It is reported that
Governor Gienn had-served notice
that if the law wasn’t enforced in
Alexander he would take a hand
in the game. Whether or not this
report is correct there is activity in
official circles in Alexander and
also activity in unofficial circles,
therefore the law-abiding citizeus
are to be congratulated.
f-% THE REBEL YELL. *
W hatis the “Rebel Yell?”
You never heard it?
Did you ever hear a good band
play Dixie before an audience of
500 people anywhere from Bunker
Hill to Monterey, from Chicago to
the Gulf? If so, you have heard
the “Rebel Yell.” You cdnnol
play Dixie anywhere in America-
before 500 people without hearing
the “Rebel Yell.’ It is doubtful
if it can be played before so large
iin audience in any capital in Eu
rope without the same accompani
ment.
One hundred times during the
great Columbian exposition in Chi
cago, the “Rebel Yell’’ came near
raising the roof off the great audi
torium, when the magnificent baud
played Dixie.
What is the Rebel Yell?
The English language has no
words tb describe it but when you
hear it you know it. It is the
most inspiring expression of pa
triotic euxberance known to the
Anglo-Saxon race. It is the way
the southern man says “I am will
ing to die for my country here and
now.” The brave old “ blue-
coats” who marched south in 61
know the “Rebel Yell,” and know
wbat it means. “Three cheers”
and ‘hurrah’ sound like “hooray”
bes'ldethe “Rebel Yell.”
Whenyon hear the “Rebel Yell”
if you are on the other side you
had better hunt tall timber. It
has been heard on every American
battlefield from Ticonderoga to
Santiago, from Boston to the Phil
ippines.
It is called the “Rebel Yell”
but it is America’s battle cry; and
Dixie is our national battle an
them.
Don’t like this, you say? Nev
ertheless it is a stubborn accom
plished fact.
And Theodore O’Harra, “a reb
el soldier, and a patriotic Ameri
can, wrote the “Bivouac of the
Dead,” America’s greatest war
poem, the verses of which adorn
the copper plate in every Ameri
can national cemetery, and stir
the thoughts of youth and age ‘ to
deeds of glory.—A merican.
to
Pointed Paragraphs.
“Fresh” girls are the first
get “staie.”
To. be truthful in this age, means
being lonesome.
A real humorist is a fellow who
is “funny” and don’t know it.
The fellow who thinks he knows
it ail, and a fool, are twin brothers.
One rose pinned upon the -breast
of the living will do more good
than a ton strewed upon the graves
of the dead.'
The Big Winston-Salem Fair.
The’ management of the Big
Winston-Salem Fair, which will
come off Oct; 8, 9, 10, 11th, plan
to make it the school of the people,
in which practical demonstrations
will be made of what is best in all
the various classes of agriculture
and industrial products. Many
improvements have been made on
the grounds,, and when the'gates
open this year, a little white city
will greet you.
It is now estimated that from
800 to 1,000 people will make ex
hibits. This is a remarkable state
ment, but evidently a true one.
The management is making ev-
every effort to amuse the great
crowds that will be present. Con
tracts have been closed for a series
of the best'line of attractions ever
seen in connection with a Fair in
the state. Some of the free acts
will be a great Balloon Ascension
each day when a man wiil be shot
from a cannon. The Kemp Sisters
Wild West will give a great free
performance each day on the race
track. Some of their, acts will
consist of Roman Chariot Race,
Roman Standing Race, Riderless
Horse, Indian Squaw Race, Cow
Boy Pass Time, Cow Girl Race,
Cow Boy Indian Race etc. To
tell what will be seen on the mid
way' would take too much space.
Iinough- to say that some of the
attractions now at Jamestown will
be seen at the Winston-Salem Fair.
The people of this section - have
never heard a real Cow Girl Band,
they will have an opportunity this
year. ' Excursion rates have been
arranged for on all roads leading to
the city. Every facility for get
ting to Fair Grounds from the
city will, he provided and every ar-
ranginent to avoid unpleasant con
gestions of the crowds will be ar
ranged for in advance.
We must not forget to mention
that (I uring the Fair, a fine Horse
Show will take place, also a great
Automobile Parade, a Horse‘Swap
pers Con test,'a Pie Eating contest,
a Billy Goat Race,' a Fiddlers Con
test and other novel and interesting
features.
The Winston-Salem people in
vite the entire peopl'd of all-this
great section to come to the Fair.
A royal welcome awaits you.

EXPLAINED.
Sorry that one of the officials at Mocksville has got into trou
ble. Well money is very attrac
tive; Annanias and Sapphire
could not handle it consistently,
—Observer, in Davie Record.
We fail to understand the
above and would like for Obser
ver to explain—MocksviIIe Cour
ier. I
- Wedonot know what ObseVver
has heard about certain officers in
Mocksville, but its evident that he
has heard of “something being dead
in Denmark,”’or he would not have
written what he did. Why, Mr,
Courier, has it not been charged in
the past two weeks by an ex-police
man that illegal fees had been col
lected in Mocksville? Can you fail
to know what that means, and can
you affirm or deny the charge? Let’s
hear from you; the people in Mocks
ville want to know.
PROHIBITION.
If Oklahoma Democrats want to hold their grip on the new
State they should have left off
that State prohibition clause.
Itwill take lots of fire-water
and tobacco to hold those In
dians in line.—Tar Heel.
Why my tlear sir, you. have not
been in North Carolina all these
years and watched Democracy deal
ing with the whiskey question. De
mocracy uses whiskey like it does
anything else, to further its own
ends. It’s for whiskey where it can
. be used to bring Democratic sue-
. cess, and it’s against whiskey where
it has no hope of getting a foot-hold.
Go over North Carolina today* and
show us a place where it is sold, and
we will show you you a Democratic
stronghold. Just study Democracy
a .little more and you will be able to
solve their whiskey' record. It’s
dead easy.

EDITORIAL PARAGRAPHS FROM THE EX.-
EDITOR.
Every man, woman and child in
Mocksville hung their heads in. shame
when'they witnessed the disgraceful
spectacle of i th eir' policeman 'being
dragged to jail by four or fiye mr.n
while the air resounded with his vile
disgraceful oaths.
-It
We presume that the preacher who1
signed W. 'Y. Wilson’s petition, in
the face ot his drunken debauches and indecent and offensive conduct on the public streets will have a greater influence with the Democrat
ic element of his flocks, when he
talks to them about whiskey and
temperance.
ir
Men living in our town who bad
maae arrangements to buy lots. an%
build, are, we are informed, advised
by their wives not to build in Mocks-
ville if present conditions- continue.
I
When temperance and religion
conflict, the average Democratic
preacher will be found on the side of
Democracy.
.' I ' N
Y/ho would have thought that any
of our preachers would be found en
dorsing a drunkard for policeman of
our town.
■ ITherumorsafloat in our town.a- bout the collection of illegal tees
should .be investigated. -
TI
We can’t ask good people to come to our town and bring their wives and children and then deny them decent police protection.
I
Thecollectionof illegal fees is a
crime in this State, and if any officer
in Mocksville has been guilty of vio
lating tbis law, the grand jury should
investigate and indict.
1 -
A town commissioner may have the right to petition himself, but its something new under the sun.
If
“We can’t remove Bill Wilson, for
it would look likethe exposures of a
certain editor prompted us?” is the
excuse given by some of the commis
sioners. We knew there were some
“dimunitive” people in town but
hardly thought there were such giant
pigmies on the Board.
I
I move that a petition be circulated
in Mocksville asking the commission
ers of the town to submit the ques
tion of establishing saloons and dis
tilleries in Mocksville, so that the
town may derive a revenue there
from.
- I
The town of- Mocksville needs more
men with backbone, sufficient to do
their duty, and more preachers who are not afraid to practice what they
preach. This does not apply, we are glad to say, to all our people and
preachers*
ir .
If only Democrats were wanted on
Wilson’s petition, why were Republi
cans begged to sign it? We are sor
ry any Republican so far forfOt his
duties to his family as to sign that
petition.
Indignation Mau Meeting.
Pursuant to a call, quite a num
ber ofsfche citizens of Mocksvillemet
in the court house Friday night and
after electing Mr. C. S. Brown chair
man, and Mr. F. A. Foster secretary,
and listening to a short speech by
Mr. E. H. Morris, adopted the fol
lowing resolutions unanimously and
also passed a resolution requesting
both the local papers to publish the
same. '. C. S. Brown, Ch’m.
F. A. Foster, Secy.
RESOLUTIONS.
1st. That we, as citizens of the
town of Mocksville, feeling keenly
the disgrace heaped upon our town
for the past year by the disgraceful
conduct of itspnlice officer, Wm. Y.
Wilson, who has on several occasions
been beastly drunk while on duty
and while wealing the badge of of
fice. ' ,
2nd. That our people have been
subjected to indignities heaped up
on them by-said. Wilson, while in
this drunken condition, and . their wives and little children have been
at such times without the protec
tion of a sober officer, and if on the
streets at such times have had to
listento his vile oaths, while the
mayor Reglected to do. his duty in
many instances, allowing him for
days at a time to roam over the town
in a drunken condition to the great
disgust and annoyance of the citizens.
Srd. We do most emphatically
protest against his re-appointment
under any considerations, and ask
that a sober and discreet man be
elected to the position of town po
lice. i

SOME THINGS THAT WH-L KEEP YOU GRINNING FOR A WEEK.
We knew they would have to go
if the weather kept turning cooler,
and they have disappeared.
Help to ke6 p the orphanage up
by paying that thou owest us. We
don’t need money—its the fellows
we owe who are howling for cash.
One of our friends walked into
our office one day last week, and
handed us $9.50. A few more in
sults like that and we will be com
pelled to leave town.
Those fellows who have b£en

, Who ever heard of an editor being
worth less'than a million.
We received an invitation last
week’toattendia millinery open
ing. The time is here when a
man has to take insults every day.
What good could we accomplish
by attending a millinery opening?
' One of the best looking fellows
in Mocksville informed us last
week that he was going to get mar
ried. We don’t know where he is
gbing to find any one toolisli e-
noagh to jump the broom with
him.
• Our friends in Tennessee are on
deck yet. Another fellow was
killed in Sevier county last week.
We have been figuring on making
a trip to that part of the world in
a couple of week, but if things
don’t calm down we will stay to
home or go to Jimtown.
"For’tBeTJfeaefit of the numerous
agents who are traveling to and
fro through the country, we wish
to say that we don’t need any life
insurance, washing machines, soap,
books, spectacles, etc., and we are
not able to contribute anything for
the prevention of cruelty to mos
quitoes.
Our friends in Sevier county, in
the State of Tennessee, who are be
hind with their subscriptions, and
who did not pay us before our de
parture from said Sevier county,
will confer a great favor upon the
editor of this howling rag of liberty
by depositing the amount of dough
with Mr. John E. Yett, Jr., who
can be found in the business house
of M. Yett & Sons, general merch
ants, on the corner of Cross and
New streets, in the city of Sevier-
ville. Mr. Yett also takes new
subscriptions.
Why do people go to church? A
good Letcher county deacon who
hasn’t missed a Sunday service in
twenty years, and a close observer,
gives the .following reason: “Some
go to weep, while others go to sleep;
same go to tell their woes, others go
to show their clothes; some go to
hear the preacher, others like the
solo screecher; boys go to reconnoiter,
girls go because they ought to; some
go for reflection, precious few for
collection.”—Mountain Eagle.
Leslie, Ark., says: “The weather
has been so hot for the past two
weeks in Leslie that teamsters have
to stand their horses in water two or
three times a day to keep their shoes
from coming off, while wagons are
going around with their tongues out.

fish holes in the low places are being
pulled up and shipped for gas pipe.”
A b Alabama minister became
incensed because his congrega
tion refused to assemble at the

that was where they would go

THOSE AWFUL PREACHERS.
As the result of a voting contest
conducted through his paper, Edi
tor Varner, of the Lexington Dis
patch, recently took ten ministers
on a sight-seeing expedition., to
Kew York and Washington,, the
ten being selected by the electors
in the voting contest aforesaid.
TheNewYorkpapers have made
more or less fun ol the party, re
presenting them, after the custom
of city papers, as being ignoiant
and unsophisticated denizens of
the rural districts. Few of the
preachers, probably, had traveled
much but the newspaper stories
about all of them, were of conrse ex
aggerated. Oneofthe party .was"
Rev. Mr. Coram1 a Baptist minister
of Boonvillej Yadkin county, and
the city reporters represented him
as especially green and as saying
all sorts of impossible things. Here
is a sample paragraph: .
‘•'And now, Mr. Coram, what do
you think of New Yoik women?”
aslced a reporter.
“ As a No’th Cahlinyu 11, with a
family and a parish in Yadkin conu-
ty, yon must not ask me whether
they’re the most beautiful iu the
world,” replied Mr. Coram. "But
I will say that I met some ladies at
church this morning and found
them very familiar.”
“ Editor Yarner hastened to ex
plain that familiar in ■ the North
Carolina seuse mentis friendly.”
The dialect attributed to a South
erner by a New Yorker is usually-
impossible and-of conrse Mr. Coram
didn’t say “North Carolinian” as
he is represented above. But this
is to call attention to the ignorance
and inaccuracy of the reporter in
having Mr. Coram say lie liada
“parish” in Yadkin county. No
body iu this part of the country
use3 the woi d parish in that con
nection except persons of Episcopal
training. Mr. Coium may have
said he had a church, a charge or
a pastorate, but he didn’t say
parish. Another paragraph re
presents Mr. Coram as sayiug he
would send an account of his trip
to the Boonville Bowie Knife,
which he didu’t say, of course, for
no such paper exists. The reporter
was making sport of the preachers
aud trying to be funny, and didn’t
intend to be accurate, but wasn’t
Po funny after all.—Ex.
‘■The same day the Mercury
reaced 179 in Texas, a Houston
paper expatiated on the advaut
ages of that state as a summer
resort,’’ says the Columbia State.
Well what better evidence than a
temperature of 179 does the State
want that summer had resorted to
Texas?—Herald Courier.
Two Kinds of Girli.
' “There are two kinds of girls in
the world.” says somebody, ‘'the
girl who works and the gii'l who
gads. Commend us to the former.
Work lends dignity to a pretty girl
—-is an added charm to her. The
girl who works—God bless her—
combines the useful and the orna
mental. She might gad about or
roll ou sofas, but she prefers to be
some account in the world and goes
out stenographer, teacher, sales
lady, etc., and bravely makes her
own way. Such are the salt of the
earth and of such is the kingdom
of heaven.

A CARD FROM JUDGE FURCHES.
■ sr
. -J •?
r
He Administers Hannony and- Advocates
a Spirit of Welcome to AU Who
Wish to Join the Republican
Party. %
In a recent issue of the Tar Heel
the following card appears:
“My attention was attracted by
a well written, and a well consid
ered article in The Tar Heel of the
30th ot August under the heading.
“Clean Our Own House,” copied
from the Mount Airy Leader.
“The spirit of harmony breathed
in that article I think will be gen
erally approved by the Kepublicaas
of the State. But tht spirit of bar-'
—-T--Inony contained in that article is
very much weakened by an attack
On Senator Butler, aiid that is the
reason I wrile I his art icle.
“Senator Butler has a right .to
be a Republican if be wishes to be,
and I am in favor of treating hini-
fairly, as I am any other man that
wishes to join the Republican party.
The party is largeiy in the minority
in the State, and will remain so
VQless it gets recruits from some
where outside the party. I can’t
understand the policy that would
prevent any one fipm- joining the
party, and-.then would treat them
unfairly when they did join the
' : party. Such a spirit as that raan-
/. ifcsted in the party would, in my
opinion, tend very much fo prevent
those disposed-to do so from join
ing the party; and I am for letting
all come that will, big, little, old
and young. with the understanding
that they are welcome, and shall
be treated fairly; we need them
all.
“ We all know that Mr. Butler
was a Populist, aud the leader of
that party iu the State, and there
is not a Populist in the State but
has a kiud feeling for Senator Butr-
' Ier;-and we all know that he has
more influence with them than any
other man in the State. There is
no longer an organized Populist
party in North Carolina, and -it is
from the Populist principally the
Republican party is to be recruited.
Tne old Populist party ouee co
operated with the Republican
party, and feel kindly to ugf but
they were abused, vilfied and rid
iculed by the Democratic party,
until they have no love for them.
“Is it to be given outr that the
leader of their party is not welcome
in the Republican party! While
We should extend a friendly hand,
Vaad a cordial invitation to all, I
can see no reason why an honorable
geutleman, who I think could do
us more good than any. other njan
should be blackballed and rejected.
“I did not agree with Mr. Butler
in many things when he was a Pop
ulist; nor did I agree with Mr.
Linney, or Mr. Hicks, when they
were Democrats, but I am willing
that they sbaH have fair treat-,
meat. . -7-,,
“What is the matter with But
ler? Ishetoobig for the. party?
Is some one who wants party pro
motion afraid of him? I do not
know that he wants to be chairman.
Aud if he does, it is certaiu he can
not be unless the party gives it to
him; and. I am for no man . chair
man that is it favor of putting one
faction over the other.
.“And if Judge Adams or Mr,
Butltr cannot afford to run the
partv above factions, then I am not
in favor of eitLei of them for chair:
man; and in saying this, I do not
think I am opposing the organi
zation. I have no sympathy with
newspaper articles abusive of
either Judge Adaius or Senator
Bn tier.
This article is Writteu by one
. who was present in the city of Ral
eigh at the formal organization of
the party in March 1867, and has
been a Republican ever since, is
not holding any office and.'is not
expecting to do so.

Statesville, N. C. - • ;
WHY?
Me . Editor :—Since the late un
pleasantness, the afr is full of crim
inations and recriminations, and
from what one can bear, these is
“something rotten in Denmark.”
Thelittle squibs in The Record
about illegal fees^has raised a lit
tle muss in that some one has at
tempted to saddle it upou Mr. W.
C. P. Etchison. We wiBh to May in
vindication of Mr. -Etchison, that
we had never heard it intimated
that he had made any such' charge
until some one of the inner circle
charged him with it. Mr. Etcbi-
son is innocent so far as we are in*
formed. Ex.-policeman .W. Y.
Willson made the charge, so we.
are informed,' that the commiss
ioners were afraid to remove him,
for he knew too much; also charg
ed that illegal fees had been col
lected, and that the books showed
it. Now we are going to ask a few
pertinent questions, and will see il
they are answered. Several weeks
ago two warrants were issued by
Mayor McGlamery for the arrest
of W. Y. Willson, one -charging
resisting an officer, the other a
peace warrant. These warrants
have never - been executed,_ and,
while the solicitor was here Mr, W.
C. P. Etchison went to see him a-
bout them, and Mr. Hammer in
structed Mr. Etehison to go to the
mayor and tell him to have these
warrants executed, and if the may
or failed to have them executed to
come back to him and he would
indipt W. Y. Willson. STow does
the mayor have these warrants ex
ecuted as it’s his duty to do? No,
he gets mad, aud goes to see the
solicitor and cornea back and tells
Mr. Etchison not to go to the so
licitor aby more. Now we wish to
know if that is what the people
elect judicial officer; fur? Is it
their duty to obstruct the enforce
ment of tl^ laws?' Should they
use their office to prevent the pun
ishment of. violators of the law?
These are questions that need to
be looked into by our people, for
we <annoteiifoicethelaw if such
things continue. ' Now let’s go
back to 1906. ; Ed Hunt raised
cain at the depot, was drunk, dis
orderly and threatened to shoot
people, and he had a shot gun at
the time, and the air around the
depot was blue with his oathB, and
Mr. Etchison at that time w;as po
liceman, and he failed to arrest
Ed Hunt, and Hunt took the train
for Salisbury and at the instancy
of some one from Mocksville, he
was arrested and brought bick by
a Salisbury policeman, and at last
spring term of court was discharg
ed upon payment of cost and giv
ing bond for good behavior, Now
the judge at last* term of court,
wanted to know why this case had
been settled in that way, aind he
wasihformed that it was done at
the instance of Mayor McGlamery.
Do the citizens of Mocksville ap
prove of the 'course taken by its
mayor in such cases? Do they
think law and order will be pro
moted by his taking such action in
such outrageous cases against the
P^eace aYid good order of our town?
Is it his duty, and is he justified in
going to the solicitor and using hip.
iniluence against the enforcement
of-the criminal law of out. State?
What motive is back of his con
duct in these two case§? (the Hunt
and-Willson, cases)? What influ
ence impelled the mayor to tak<
the course he did? Can he explain
his conduct-to ah iuitraged law,
and an equally outraged people.
Does henotkuow that white men
have been hailed beifore the mayor
of this to wn, and made to pay
fine of $5 to $15 and the cost, for
indulging in a few cuss words on
the streets, then why should be
dse his good offices in ‘behalf of
the negro Ed Hunt? Will he tell
;us why? ' Will he tell us • why he
made that trip to' the solicitor, and
hijshed theseothertw^o cases? -We
will see. The leaven is. at * work,
and more upheavels may be ex
pected, but the. people want to
.know. J obab .

The coming of the Southern
Power Company, a mammoth con
cern generating electricity on the
Catwba river, into Salisbury and
ether points within . what is con
sidered the natural field of the
VVhitney Reduction Company, has
stirred the officials of that com
pany to action, and they are now
busily engaged in trying to hold
their own in the local field. The
Southern Power Company has its
power on the market; the Whitney
people cannot place theirs on the
market before nest July. The big
men of the Whitney Company aie

THE^-EDITOR,. '
Au editor is a millionaire with
out money, a Congressman out of a
job,.a king without a throne. 1He
constructs without a hammer or a.
saw, builds a..-railroad without
rails|or spikes, and farms without
a plow. He runs.a butcher shop
in the journalistic world and deals
outbrains for cash or Credit./-He
loves those Who adverfine wiih him
like a brother. The editor is a
teacher, a lawjerpa preachej; he
sends forth truth to save souls and
gets lost himSelf. He heals the
wounded, cares for thedying, res
cues the perishing, and then starves
himself when a ham sandwich of
kindness would jerk him from the
jaws of death.—Exchange.
His Dearold Mother.
“ My dear old mother, who Is now
eighty three years old, thrives on Elec-
’trie Bitters,-” writes W. B Brunson, of
Dublini Ga. “She has taken them for
about two years and enjoys an excel
lent appetite, feels stroner and sleeps
well.” That’s the way Electric Bit
ters affect the aged, and the same
Iiappy results follow in all cases of
female weakness and general debility.

horse aud btiggy of R. W. Dodson,
to go to Statesville. Arriving al
the capitol city of Iredell, he pro
ceeded to sell the outfit for $80 to
To. Little. ’ Little later sold it to
Lon Knox, for $110. Then it* de
veloped that the sheriff and the
treasurer of Iredell, Messrs.' Sum

The editor of the Courier must

are to judge him by his fish woman
billingsgate. Wearenotgoing to

he says that we lied about his -copy
ing reading matter from The Record
without giving us credit, we think
he is mistaken. It is hardly possible
for two men to sit down and write
ten or a dozen locals', and use word
for word nearly the same identical
language. Bethatas it may, we
have.not changed our opinion of the
big fat editor of .the Courier, and
When it comes to comparing charac

has made dozens of promises within

filling the same. Whether he lied
■or not, we leave that to him and
those whom he deceived and mislead
by saying he would do a thing and
then not do it. A man who lives in

hoped the element of poiitics in this matter will be reduced to a
minimum.—Winston Sentinel.
The Sentinel is frank to admit that
there is polities in this rate question
in North Carolina, but ft seeiris to
lose sight of the fact that- the very
reason of there being politics in it is
-the cause of the oft and repeated in
terviews given out by the gentlemen
who are hoping to be benefitted by
the war they are making on corpo
rations. The good of the people and
the country are a secondary consid-
. eration on their part. Somethingto
aid them in landing a fat job is what
they are laboring for. To get it,
they would bankrupt every corpora

News From Society Neighborhood.
From onr HeguIar Coirespondea*,
The first thing in my mind is
the meeting at Society. The meet
ing began the first Sunday in Octo
ber. A great concourse of people
attended_the meeting. Rev. S. D.-
Swaim cameon Mondayand preach
ed each day and at night. Our
congregations were good every day
and overflowing - at* night. The
word was preached With great
power. Those who knew Brother
Swaim would expect nothing el3e.
We had a gracious - meeting, not
many converts, but the church, I
trust, was greatly revived. Satur
day the pastor led four candidates
down into the watery grave. While
we had a good meeting, sad to say,
many of our young brethren had
gone back into the beggerly
elements of the world. Many young
men came to-the alter for prayer.
The saddest .thing of all, the, meet
ing had to stop . and,;those dear
boys went away unsaved. I hope
they will not give up the struggle
until they find Jesus precious to
their souls. Bnt alas! it is sooften
the case with so many, they think
tlte harvest is past, the summer
e n d e d and they will jpst wait till
ahother revival, but let us warn
yon against the devil’s suggestions.
Today is the day. of Salvation. If
5yop will bear his voice, harden* not
your heart, Tfieare too often to
blame.for .the waywardness of our
young people. Wetalk of almost
everything except Jesus and his
love. ' We might avoid many trou
bles if we would lay our arms a-
round the shoulders of our young
men and encourage them by telling
them of Jesus aipl his love and
mercy. May God help us all to do
more in that direction than we
have ever done.
We were glad to have Bro. J. F.
Click, of Hickory, with us Friday
in the meeting; also C. F. Strottd,
of Moeksville, was with us.
We were sorry to recejve the sad
intelligence of the death of Mr.
Marion Booe. Our pastor was
summoned to preach the funeral
Saturdayat 11 o’clock. Brother
Booe was a member and clerk of
the church at Ijames X Roads.
Now in conclusion let us bear one
another’s burdens and thus fulfill
the law of Christ. May God help
us all to be a help to one another,
is the prayfir of

SOME THINGS THAT WILL KEEP YOU GRINNING FOR- A WEEK.

IF IGNORANCE WERE BLISS, WE
WOULDN'T BUSTER HIM" .
A few weeks ago we said that' our
esteemed contemporary, The Cour
ier, had been swiping our locals. In
one issue of TheCourier we noticed
quite a number of items which had
appeared, in our paper the preceding
day. • The locals bore such a striking
resemblance to ours, that we took
it for granted that he had copied, or
at least doctored some of our stuff,
for it is seldom that two great minds
run so near together. It appeals
that the hit dog always howls. Our
friend, The Editor, (whoever he is)
got rather warm in his last week’s
issue, and jerking his coat off and
throwing his hat and shoes under
the table, (an editor don’t wear any
socks), he proceeded to fall on us in
the following manner:
We know not why the Record says we copied their news, as we never have nor never will attempt
such. When C. Frank "Stroud,
Editor of the Davie Record, says
we copied anything- from his pa
per he knows that he utters as
black a lie as ever came from
the throat of human.
Now, dearly beloved, who would
have thought that such awful lan
guage could have escaped from the
mouth of such an honorable.-aiid
high-toned man. -Horrors!
th in k th a t in ail the years that have
passed over our head since we began
the humble calling of an editor, not
one tias ever had the grit to call us a
liar. -Many have said that our pa
per contained lies—and maybe it
did, but other editors wrote them.
We a liar? ,Ye gods and little fishes!
It makes our flesh creep to think of
such a thing. Us a liar—us, whom,
every one knows can get credit_ for
anything from a bottle of ink to a
carload of paper, and who is known
in.maqy sections as a second “little.
Geogge Washington.” Ye'murky
shades of Booker Washington! We
a liar! Even the echoes from the
tomb of Socrates refutes so vile a
statement. But who is the editor
of the most high and inspiring sheet
known as the Moeksville Courier?
Does the man whose name stands at
the mast-head write the brilliant
and mighty editorials which enlight
ens the town of Mocksville once a
week when the paper don’t give out,
- or do those brilliant gems of wisdom
find their way from the Washington
Post, the Durham Herald and other
-leading papers? - We niake the asser
tion boldly, and we can prove what
we charge, that two-thirds of the
editorials that appear in, the Courier
are swiped from other papers, and
no credit given for them. It is as
much harm to steal from the goose
as it is to steal from the gandef?
Now, we don’t blame the editor, if
he is an editor, for printing' these
editorials, for they make mighty-
good reading matter, and are'gener-
ally better than a one-horse country
editor can write. "We once hooked
some thunder from the Washington
Post that The People’s Paper had
SWiped, and came near getting into
trouble, and since then,we write our
editorials-or have a friend fo-help
us. Wewishtosay that when the
time comes that we cannot write our
own editorials, without using some,
other man’s second-hand stuff, we
will quit trying to edit a paper and
go back to the country, from whence
we came, and go to farming for a
living. We believe^that, the man
who wrote the aboip article,' is al
ready sorry that he let his pen bring
forth such awful language. Jhst to
think of an honest, upright; .gentle
man stooping so low as to call v such
an insignificant thing as the editor
of Tbe Davie Record a liar. Why,
brother, we almost feel honored by,
receiving sucK a compliment from
the hands of so great, a writer. We
realize that the.few people who read
the Courier have something to be
propd of, for we believe Hiat the
little squib that we printed two
weeks ago in regard to the swiping
of our locals, was the means of at
' least one original' burning, sizzling
editorial to Appear in that paper.
Oh, ye Cr'arier, how often would, we
have fathered you under our wing
as^hen doth her brood, but ye
would not, and now you are surroun
ded by ruin and desolation.
We wish to apologize to our seven
- or eight thousand readers for devot
ing so much space to our esteemed
friend. thffCourier. We only wish
to say in conclusion, that those who
wish to read ' the' news while it is
pews, will do well to keep their eyes
on The Record, the paper that the
people-read, and ^Jiich travels once
a week—rain ocshine—from the rock
bound coast of Jdaine to .the golden
shores of California. Farewell, dear
hearty adieu!
The postoffice clerks say if peo
ple are puuished hereafter-in pro
portion to their misdeeds on earth

The Apple Crop. mWhile the apple crop in most
sectous is a failure, this particular
section has been greatly favored
this season, for never in thehistory
of the county Iiasi there been so
much of this fruit along the foot of
the mountains and in the Ohesthui
Ridges. Already from this market
alone 200,000Nbushels of Bucki ri'g
hams have been shipped and ’a
third of that variety remains in the
orchards. Itfs estimated that the
fall crop will be as large1 in pro
portion, and it is freely predicted
that half a million bushels of ap
ples will leave- here before the
Christmas holidays. These apples
will average this year about seven
ty-five cents per bushel and this
,will give some idea of the magni

yearly.—Mt. Airy Leader.

her and they tried to drive the
devils out by wrench fug. the stif

of a fever smitten cliild. He was
denied medical attendance, the
fanatics claiming that he was pos
sessed1 of devils: He- .begged pit
eously would provide him water, 1 |f|orilet stings,
and they fan their fingers down his “
throat to catch the devils. When
his-body was-examined, after death,
his tongue was found split open,
as witha knife. It is astounding
that such things exist in t-he 20th

Abo u t ourself .
Notin a personal seuse, but about our business self.
The opening of the fall season lias begun and. we have
planned for yon. If we have hot planned to suit you, we
realize we have planned in vain. ‘ ,
We have planned a campaign for fall merchandising
that will not only help yon, but will help our town and sur
rounding vicinity. We hdve planned on a.broad scale.
In the first place, we have-planned to show a complete
stock offfall merchandise of high grades in every line No
one around here will be allowed to show fashions more lavish
Iy than this store. We are aware though, our planning
would be in vain without your help. We ask your ' co oper
ation. We will try to deserve it.
About Ouf Dress Goods,
It has always been our airn'to progress and not. go back
ward. Each season we have tried to give better and a nicer
stock to select from. Thisseasonwehavenotspared pains
or money, but have gone to the extent of our powers in order
to give you the best and most up to-date goods that can be
had. One look iu this department will convince you that.all
all we say is true. .,Stores in cities cannot show you prettier
or more stylish fabrics at the price..
Whether it be cotton, silk or woolen goods, We' have it
. in Ihe latest shades from the lowest price that dependable
merchandise can be sold to the nicer and finer qualities up to
$1 35 per yard.
Our Ladies Cloaks.
Wehaveperfectconfidenceinournew cloaks for fail,
-and believe they will bear the most rigid inspection.
We have much pleasure, therefore, in asking yon to ex--
amiue them carefully, for we assure you they will stand the
test with regard to both style-and quality.
- They are exceptional, because of price, $3 to $10.
Our Ladies ReadyTrimmedHab.
While iii New York, we bought the very latest and
choicest styles, good not only for_fall, but the entire season’s
wear. '
A trip through the fashion marts is always beneficial,
but we are particularly enthusiastic over the results, of this
particular trip. ' . .
The values in our new dress hats at $1.98, $2.50, $3 and
$3 .95 are noticably better than any previous occasion, what
soever.
A few of them are now on exhibit in ocr window.
Let us show you through all the departments. You will
enjoy seeing the crisp new styles. We will enjoy showing
you. .

TELLS HOW TO MIX IT.
Re-Directions to Prppare Simple, Yet
markable Home Mixture.
A well-known authority on Rheu
matism gives the readers of a large
New York daily paper the follow
ing valuable, yet simple and haim-
Iess prescription, which 'any ■ one
can easily prepare at home:
Fluid Extract Dandelion, one-
half ounce; Compound Kargon,
one ounce; Compound Syrup Sar
saparilla, three ounces.
Mix by shaking well in a bottle,
and-take a teaspoonful after each
meal and at bedtime.
He states that the ingredients
can be obtained from any good pre
scription pharmacy at small cost,
and, being of vegetable extraction,
are harmless to take.
This pleasant mixture, if taken
regularly for a few days, is said to
over come almost any case of Rheu
matism. The pain -and swelling,
if any, diminishes with each dose,
until permanent results are obtain
ed, and without injuring the btom-
ach. . While there are many so-
called Rheumatism remedies, pat
ent medicines, etc., some of which*
do give relief, -few really give. per
manent results, and the above will,
no doubt, be greatly apreciated l>y
many sufferers here at this time.
Inquiry at the drugstores of this
neighborhood elicits the inform
ation that these drugs are harmless
and can be lionght separately, or

an article coming from the pen of
an aged man, whose hoary head has
felt the keen blasts of many winters,
and is bending low with its weight

forbid that the ladies and gentle
men of our fair land should ever
be permitted to see the beautiful
young ladies of this civilized coun
try riding over the land with one
leg on one side of a horse and the
other on the opposite, and to see
the young ladies out for a walk over
the streets with high-water skirts on
and clubs in their hands. Don’t try
to turn the women into men. The
country can’t do without the hand
that rocks the cradle. If the girls
and young ladies cannot ride as did
their grandmothers in years gone
by, it would be far better for them
to walk. We may be wrong, but
this is the way we look at it.

Ifwemadea mistake in giving
The Landmark credit for something
it didn’t say, we are ready to tender
our apology. But before The Land
mark goes after us farther, we ad
vise the editor to look back over his
files and see if he can’t find some
thing. We certainly saw the article
we copied in some paper, and since
we seldom read any papers except
the two best ones in the State, which
is The Landmark and the Mocksville
Courier, we don’t see how it was
possible for us to have made such a
mistake. But accidents will happen.
YES, RIDE ASTRIDE.
A lady asks us this question: Do
you think it proper for a woman to
ride astride on horseback? Most
certainly we do. When God made
the horse he made him for the pur
pose of being ridden by both men
and women. Had he intended that
man should ride astride and woman
be huddled up on the animal’s back
like a crippled sroat he would have
made some of the horses Afferent or
the women different. We are glad
he did not make the women differ
ent nor^shape them so that they
would naturally fit a side-saddle.
The first side-saddle ever made was
manufactured to fit a poor crippled
queen, and her ladies in waiting, in
order to be in style, each got a side-
- saddle or pack-saddle and crooked
themselves into the same unnatural
and uncomfortable shape. So far as
the alleged immodesty is concerned,
that is all rot. We have seen many
a girl climb a fence asd she never
got up and fell both feet over at
orife time, but like a sensible person,
simpiy went over in the orthodox
manner. Yes, dear girls, if you
want to ride horseback, get your di
vided skirts and ride your horse like
a sensible Tarheel woman, and let
the prudes play the crippled goat to
their heart’s content on their old an
tiquated side-saddle or pack-saddle.
Pay no attention to what people say
when you ride your horse astride.
You are not only sensible but you
are much safer than if you had your
anatomy tangled around a, lot of
senseless, saddle-horns and strap's.
While you are riding if you meet
any of the “I am holier than thou”
sort, who- don’t like your style, ride
over them. We have noticed two or
three pretty young ladies riding
through the streets lately, astride,
sitting erect and perfectly at ease.
Yes, girls, there is no healthier exer
cise than riding horseback astride.
Whenyoursweetheartasks you to
take ahorseback ride, tell him‘not
to send a horse with a pack saddle
on, but to send an up-to-date regu
lation saddle with a stirrup on each
side. -We favor the new style, the
ladies have adopted,, towit: Wear
ing short skirts and carrying a cane
when on the street. And if Brother
Harris, of the Chronicle can’t stand
the sight, we*will ask that he be al
lowed to travel the back streets
without being molested on his way
to and from his office.—Charlotte

Of Interest to Cotton Growers.
The executive comittee of the
North Carolina division of theSouth-
ern Cotton Association, beleiving
that it is of great importance to
frequently gather the cotton pro
ducers in conventions, where they
may discuss the important matter of
marketing their crop, have arranged
to hold conventions at different
places in the state.
A cotton convention will be held
at Salisbury on Wednesday at 8 p. m.
October 30th.
The committee expect a large dele
gation from the counties of Cabar
rus, Davie, Davidson, Iredell, Mont
gomery and Stanley.
The question of improved gining,
baleing, warehousing and market
ing cotton will be discussed by well
posted men.
Our state president, Mr. C. 6.
Moore will address the convention
giving the impressions made on him
at the great cotton conference at
Atlanta. Mr. Moore met and
talked with delegates at the confer
ence, from all over Europe, from
them he got much information that
will be of value to all who hear his
report. Respectfully yours,.

BAD WRECK ON SOUTHERN.
Greensboro, Oct. 18.—North
bound passenger train No. 34, of
the Southern Railway, traveling at
the rate of 60 miles an hour, ran
into an open switch at Rudd, a
small station four miles north of
here, last night about 10:20, strik
ing a freight head-on and killing
and injuring many persons.
The first day coach was entirely
split open and the engine of the
passenger was completely demol
ished. The wreck did not catch
fire, however. The Pullman coach
es and passengers therein did not
suffer. Practically all the persons
in the first day coach were injured,
about 25 in number, it is thought.
The list of persons killed in the
wreck is as follows:
Mis. June Thomas, of Danville,
Va.
Engineer Holton, of No. 34.
D. AUeh Bryant, traveling rep
resentative of ehe Richmond Paper
Company.

He was a high-toned gentleman,
always greeting his friends with a
heaity handshake and smiie, and
was one of the best paper salesmen
on the road, being held in high
esteem, not only by the firm foi
which he has traveled for many
years, but by all with whom he
came in contact. Mr. Bryant was
a personal friend of the editor, and
we shall miss him. He was* a
young man, and his untimely end
is therefore more sad. To bis loved

CLOTHING! CLOTHING! CLOTHING!
Summer is gone and as the first Fall month hppraaclies, you should begin to look around
for your Winter Suit-. To the prospective buyer we wish to submit a Few Facts concerning our
line of Men’s and Boy’s Clothing for Fall and Winter use.
Facts which should command the attention of every clothes buyer. Facts that weigh full
sixteen ounces to every pound. Factsthat are strictly “net” and not subject to any discount.
Facts that- carry with them a hundred cents worth of merit and value for every dollar. Facts
that invite and are open to the most rigid and exacting tests, -
STYLE.!QUALITY.
“Single men may wear double-breasted
coats.” Men of average size and shape |
are free to follow their faucy as to cut of §
their clothes, but stout men should so jj
style their garments as to reduce the ap- I
pearance of corpulency—therefore we |
recommend single-breasted garments for I
them. . ■ I
Broad-minded men with narrow side I
lines should “exaggerate” by selecting I
double-breasted garments. I
In our clothes, Style and -Quality go
hand in hand. They have Snap and
Tone in appearance, with Trustworthi
ness and Durability in the backgronnd.
They are made from the very best ma
terial and consequently will give you
the very best wear.V -
Our Fall line is now in and we invite you to come and see for yourself if we haven’t the
best and largest assortment of Men’s Up to-Date Suits ever shown in Mocksville.

cows which run at large over the

any.yvay?—Madison News.ir
A’couple of couples weut for a
ride in the country' last Sunday,
and when about five’miles out dis
agreed on some proposition, and a
couple of young ladies walked back
to town. They report the roads in
some places needing the attention
of the road boss.—Phillipsburg
(Kans.) News.ir
An Atchison girl, who is so thin
now that you wouldn’t need an X-
ray to see everything she has in
her, has lost ten pounds more.
Her friends say she didn’t lose any
tea pounds of flesh, as there was
no flesh left, but that she might
have dropped that much skin. If
she keeps, on getting thinner they
are^fraid there will not be -skin
enough to go clean around.—At
chison Globe.
IfEvery family should have a cur
few which should positively “ring
tonight” if needed. These' curfews
are inexpensive and can be home
made. Take a piece of siding two
feet long and whittle one end down
to a handle, then bike the child
that needs a curfew and bend him
over a barrel. Now take the piece
of siding in. the right hand and use
it for a clapper. Put it on hot.
Divide the strokes evenly and see
’ that none miss. Good for any boy
. or girl up to the age of sixteen,
and three applications are warran
ted to cure the most prononnced
case of street loafing that exists.
The music this curfew makes is

With lots of gravy
And potatoes sticking ’round?
Now bring out that good old
Home-made, ’simmon beer.
And I will show you how
To make it disappear.

Ita effectlsclinnning, pleasingly delightful.'Gently though safely,- it surely equalizes the blood circulation.If you have a headache, it's blood pressure.If it's painful periods with womon, samd cause.Ifyou are sleepless, restless, nervous, it's blood congestion—blood pressure. -That surely is a certainty, for Dr. Shoop’s Headaclie IUblets stop it in 20 minutes, and the tablets simply distribute the unnatural blood pressure.Bruise your finger, and doesn’t it get red, and swell, ana pain you?
