02-FebruaryT he D avie Regord V ol. IX.MOCKSVILLE. N, C.. THURSDAY. FEBRUARY 6. 1908.No. 31 Editorials from The Durham Herald. The Salisbury delegation has our sympathy. The morrally stunted do not want to look upon this as a victory. It can already be seen that the legislature is going to take its time about it. It would seem that;some people are gradually, but surely, losing their grip. We will now be allowed a say-so in the matter even if it amounts to nothing. When it comes time to vote on it, you do not want to forget what they tried to do. If we had a favor to ask of the legislatu (e it would be simply to be let a lone. The people will be permitted to govern themselves yet a little while onger. Tbe legislature might have wait­ ed until the prohibition delegation got out of town. The legislature is at it and Mr. Justice is still one of the attorneys of the state. After they get through with pro­ hibition they may turn their atten­ tion to temperance. As they had made it plain that it would not hurt the party we are unable to account for it. If the governor hopes to get it in his own town he will simply have to come out and make a gghtfor it. Where had chose members been in hiding who had not heard of the great demand for a state prohibi­ tion law. Before the legislature adjourns it might make an attempt to settle the differences between the two Baleigh papers. The gentleman who Wants to pro hibit the throwing of sawdust into Swift creek will he heard from be­ fore it is over. The governor comes out strong for state prohibition, but this does not mean that he felt that way a_ bout it when he called the legisla­ ture to meet. The legislature may not have known what the governor had in mind when he issued the call, yet they seem to have a pretty fair idea of what they eaine to Baleigh for. It might be best for the legisla­ ture to find out for certain about the demand before passing a state prohibition law. Some few of them may remember that they were also led to believe that the demand for lower passenger rates was state­ wide. ____________ - The Jumping Off Place. - “Consumption had me in its grasp; and I had almost reached the lump­ ing off place when I was advised to try Dr. King's New Discovery; and I want to say right now, it saved my life. Improvementbegan with the first bottle, and after taking one dozen aottles I was a well and hap­ py man again,” says George Moore, of Grimesland, N. C.

A Young Man’s First Failure. I have always watched with great interest a young man’s first failure. Tt is the index of his life, the measure of his success power. The mere fact of his failure does not interest me much; but how did he take his defeat? What did he do next? Was he disconraged? Did he slink out of sight? Did he conclude that he had made a mis­ take in his calling, and dabble in something else? Or did he up and at it again with a determination that knows no defeat? — Orison SweetMarden. Over-Investment. One of our observant business men says that there has been over­ investment in UlmoaSt all lines. For instauce, the plowboy on the farm works in a pair of patent leather shoes that cost four or five dollars. The fellow who rubs up machinery wears a $2.50 pair of gloves. And it is this way in all classes business. This increases cost of production. It looks a little panicky scarce to straighten out such irregularities. Stanley Enterprise; ' Sound Doctrine. We can’t find much inclination in our heart to sympathize with the old fogy who stores his money a- way at home and is afraid of the banks. Over in a town in the wes­ tern part of - the State recently a man got “scared’ ’ and took his mon­ ey, amounting to $250, out of the bank and somebody stole it from him the first night after he lifted it out of the bank. It was a costly ex­ perience for Jhinr. The safest place for money is in the bank. Very lit­ tle money is ever lost by bank fail ures compared with the amount that is lost by fires and by buiglars. It is true there is a chance for loss it matters not where the money is, but element of uncertainly and in­ security is greater with money out of the bank thad in the bank. Be­ sides. there is personal danger in keeping money in the house. No man can keep money on hand with­ out letting people know it. The ^eoret will always leak out. and then as soon as a professional bur glar finds it out, he’s going to lift it, and rather than be caught and identified he would kill every mem­ ber of the family.—Our Home. Money Was Scarce. “However scarce money may be at the present,” said an pld Mis­ sourian, “theoldest inhabitants will recall when it was almost unob tainable and other commodities had to be used as media of exchange. The wolf’s scalp was worth $1 be1 cause it was a state bounty -upon the death of a wolf, and venison hams and deer skins also had a purchasing, value. When . the first sheriff of Audrian county, in 1838, went to,Jefferson Cityto de­ liver the county revenue, he ine an old friend on the way who, needing money, wanted to borrow the ac­ tual coin part of the county’s reve nue. The good-hearted sheriff lent it to him and went on to the capi­ tal and delivered only the scalps. By the time of the next settlement the loan was repaid and the sheriff made his next settlement complete. No note or other obligation than the mere word'was given.”—St. Louis Republic. Neighborhood Favorite. Mrs. E. D. Charles, o£ - Harbor, Maine, speaking of Electric Bitters, says: “It is a neighborhood favor­ ite here with us.” It deserves to be a favorite everywhere, it gives quick relief in dyspepsia, liyer com­ plaint, kidney derangement, mal­ nutrition, nervousness, weakness and general debility. It’s action on the blood, as a thorough purifier makes it. especially useful as a spring med­ icine. This grand alterate tonic is sold under guarantee at C. C.

Vernon, of Charlotte, were here today on company busi­ ness leaving on No. 12 this after­ noon. While here Mr. Tayloe gave out the pleading information that as. soon as he returned to Washington he would have re-es­ tablished at Statesville the connec­ tion of No. 12 from Asheville to Salisbury with the Charlotte train. This connection was broken recent­ ly when trains Nos. 21 and22were discontinued and the schedule changed. There has ben much complaint over the breaking of this connec­ tion. Mr. Tayloe also said that Nos. 21 and 22, which were dis­ continued on account of the falling off of travel, would be put back just as soon as travel and condi­ tions warranted. It is not improb­ able that these trains will be re­ established early in the spripg. : We, have decided to open up a retailjlepartment In connection of our mill for the benefit of our ■custaner* and will hereafter sell Flour, Meal and Feed to anyone in whatever quantities that may be wanted. ■' / Our reputation, for making the BEST FLOUR TO BE HAt) IN THE COUNTY is well estab­ lished. ^ Our goods are all guaranteed and-we' will [cheerfully refund the money, and take[back : thefgoods; to any unsatisfied customer IJ | If your dealer Cannot supply you, call on us and . g*t The flour that always gives Satisfaction.

ManyFactories all Over The Country Are Opening Up And Putting Thousands of Employees Back to Work.—Much Rejoicing Order of The Day. Memphis Times. ' Conditions throughout the entire Union are brightening up right a- long. The reports that are coming in daily point to that one conclusion. The confidence of the masses has in a very great measure been restored, although the aftermath of the panic will be felt for months to come. In­ deed it will require no doubt a yeaTr more or less, for all things to assume a normal condition, or rather the condition that existed at the time the trouble began., Many of the large establishments throughout the United States are putting their men back at work, thousands having returned, even within the past week or ten days. . As stated in the foregoing, confi­ dence is being restored, not by leaps and bounds, but in an even, steadily increasing manner. Some-newspa­ pers think the opposite, whilst we have read a few editorials from pens of some of the best editorial writers to the effect that the normal condit­ ions have already been resumed. Thatis carrying things a bit too rapid, in our opinion. It is true that factories are starting up in all parts of the country, and labor being em­ ployed. There are a number of in­ stances where advance orders have become so exceedingly heavy during the past two weeks’that some plants have been operated“all night-arid" " day! all This in itself means much. One of the largest concerns of the country is that of the Racine-Sattley Company, situated in Racine,1 Wis­ consin. President H. E. Miles, of this company is recognized as one. of the best and most conservative finan­ ciers in thaf section of the Union, and consequently any statement at­ tributed to him must of necessity carry unusual weight with it. He recently stated that it was his firm belief that before the middle of Feb­ ruary conditions would have greatly improved and practically restored to normal. Speaking for his own _ In­ terests, PresidentMilesassertedthat his company was now doing a larger volume of business than ever before in its history. Another immense concern at Day­ ton, Ohio, the Platt City ,Iron Com­ pany. which has been closed down during the worst part of the panic, has started up again, and re-em­ ployed all of its force of workmen.. The Pittsburg Plate Glass Company- has started up its plant known as No. 4 works, giving work to nearly one thousand five hundred men. The Brownell Boiler Works has resumed operations, as has also the Bamey & Smith Car Manufacturing Company, both tremendous concerns, employ­ ing many hundreds.of workmen. The traveling men from- all the large cities of the South, North? East atid West have resumed their travels, and are now rapidly cover* ing their old territories, visiting the trade. Thisalone is a magnificent indication of a resumption of busi­ ness along lines of an entirely satis­ factory character. Nearly every traveling man in the country, at the beginning of the trouble, was called in by their respective houses. - Other large industrial plants that have resumed operations in various parts of the United States are Nat­ ional Enameling and Stamping Com­ pany, of Granite City.. Another con­ cern to open up at the same place, are the Elolling Mills. The Common­ wealth Steel Company have-started their furnaces with large forces of men The National Com-Products Gom- pany is another big plant that has re­ sumed operations. The American Car and Foundry Company’s several plants have-begun work once more. In fact, none of the plants-of this corporation ceased operations alto­ gether, but thousands and - thous- ands of men were laid off, in order to reduce expenses to the lowest pos­ sible minimum. In Memphis alone there are steadily employed nearly fifteen hundred men, and nearly all? if in fact not all of these have gone back to work. Five hundred men returned to work last Monday at the plant of the Republic Iron and Steel Works in East St. Louis, BI. Employes of the Columbus Bugpy Company, of Columbus, Ohio, have secured re-em­ ployment and are consequntly hard at at it again. The Youngtown Steel and Tube Company, of Youngtown1 Ohio, has opened up once more, giv­ ing employment to eight thousand men. At Dallas, Tex., three hund­ red or more workmen returned to duty at the plant of the Murray Gin Manufacturing Company. The im­ mense plant has started again of the NationalBubber Company, fifteen hundreds men returning to their benches. Between ten and fifteen thousand men returned to their various duties- and trades during the past week in Cleveland. Ohio. In Detroit, Mich., between five and ten thousand, went back to work last -week. It is the same old story in all parts of the Union, each and every] report that has so far reached this office stating that factories are resuming opera­ tions of any and all .kinds. Natur­ ally the tens of thousands and mill­ ions we might say, who were tempo­ rarily thrown out of employment are highly elated over present condit­ ions, and the great hope before them at this writing is that things will con­ tinue as they have progressed during the past fortdight. The Memphis Times will take‘much pleasure and an unusual amount of trouble in publishing the resuming of opera­ tions by all plants and factories that will notify us to that effect. Weare for the people, the good old common people, and realize keenly that it is the sacred duty of the press to exert every conceivable and imaginable ef­ fort to furtheir their cause, so far as it can be legitimately done. Wemightaddthat many factor­ ies throughout North Carolina have resumed work, thereby giving em­ ployment to many thousand work­ men. We respectfully refer the editor of the Moeksville Courier to the above article, to which, we trust he will give his prayerful attention. We also earnestly request that the Cooleemee Journal publish this ar-: ticle in its ndxt issue. Tenth District Republican Committe EndonesTaft.-. The “organization Republicans” of the tenth congressional district seem to have taken snap judgement on their party associates, according to.au Asheville dispatch.- The ex­ ecutive committee of the tenth dis­ trict met quietly in Asheville Sat- uaday and formally endorsed Horn -W-..

And the Legulatore-Adjourned Saturday — Railroad Fare Now 21-2 Cente--The $17,500 Not to Be Ueed for Expenses of the Legislature. — ' - The house of the Legislature Friday night passed, by a_vote of 59 to 50, the railroad rate bill passed by th<TSenate last Wednes­ day night, which provides for a flat railroad rate of 21 cents a mile. -There were four or five rate bills pending before the House. The Manningbill, known as the “stand- pat” measure, which provided for the coutiouance of the 21 cent rate and for strengthening the act in some particulars, was defeated over whelmingly. What was know as the Yount bill (introduced by Yount of Catawba) was also voted down. It provided for the 21 cent rate but embraced other conditions not in the Senate.bill. A bill in­ troduced-by Judge Wiborne was also voted down. The Weaver bill was- under consideration and the House adopted an amondment,' offered by Speaker Justice, that the 21 cent rate should take-effect when the railroads put into effect the provisions of the freight rate law of 1907. This bill passed first reading. While providing for the 21 cent rate it was so hedged about with conditions as to practically destroy the compromise agreement of the Governor and the railroads, and if it had had passed the extra session would ha ve boen protracted indefinately with slight hope of an agreement. About this time Mr. Dowd, of Mecklenburg, and Mr. Doughton, of Alleghany, took a: hand, and theic^ good work and fine manage ment saved the day. Mr, Dowd first moved to strike out from the Senate bill the amendment of Mr. Buston, to leave the matter of fix­ ing rates with the corporation com­ mission a year hence. The amend ment was adopted and then, before his opponents knew what he was a- bout, Mr. Dowd offered the Senate bill as a substitute was adopted, 50 to 59, and on the second and third readingCLrthe bill passed almost u- nanlmously. Saturday the Senate agreed to the bill as ameended by the elimination of the Buxton a- mendment, and, the Legislature, having finished the work-for which it was called together, adjourned. The bill as passed provides for a straight flat rate of 21 cents a mile; independently owfied and operated roads of 100 miles -lengthier less may charge not exceeding -three cents. There is nothing in the act, as provided in the agreement, that mileage shall be sold at 2 and 21 cents. These provisions were left out because it was said they would make the bill unconstitutional. and it is left to the-honor of the rail­ roads to carry out that part of the agreement. The act takes effect April 1st. - The adoption of the bill as it passed- was a blow to Speaker Jus­ tice and tbeother extremists, who really favored no change in the law, but who for appearance’s sake were willing to vote for a 21 cent rate when it was hedged about by such conditions as would practically de­ stroy the compromise agreement. The conservative element-. have Dowd- and Doughton to thank for the fine management Which-Secured the - adoption of ohe rate law and brought the session to a close. The disposition,ofjthe $17,500 which the railroads,,afcthe instance of the Governor, agreed to pay for the court costs,-where it is proper it should be applied. „ r- The date for tbeState prohibition election was finally fixed for Tues­ day, May 26. ..................................... _ At':'''''Winst0D''.-.'.la8 t.'-f‘We^c-^Jim. dozen aotties I was a well and hap* Dranghn, -who ‘formerly lived at py-man again,’’.says George Moore.

The fact has again been demon­ strated that a man. who has plenty of cash cannot be electrocuted • or hung in this country. If Harry-Thaw was crazy when he murdered White, he is. crazy still, and should spend the rest of his life in an insane asylum. •v The people who send their cash to mail order houses are doing the county and State more harm than a half dozen panic* like the one we had last fall. Iy fair to berate the railroads for being.--in politics when the Demo­ cratic^ party- has on numerous oc­ casions in times past not only en­ couraged their being in politics but has used them.tp.ite advantage. The Landmark has had it in mind to say the same thing. The Dem­ ocratic party in North Carolina has again and again used the rail­ roads and their influence for its benefit. We recall this in 1898. Demacratic leaders told it about the State in private conversation, with every evidence of satisfaction, that the Southern railway had con­ tributed quite a neat sum— $10,000 we "think it was—to the Democrat­ ic campaign fund. This js only One instance, but whenever the party has needed the help of the railroads and could get it—as it usually could—it useed the rail­ roads for its benefit. The roads of course expected favors in return for their help.. Whenever a cor­ poration—favors a paisy or an in­ dividual the corporation expects something in return. M. A. Foster, of Cooleemee in­ forms us through the mails that Bev. J. F. Kirk’s solution of the egg problem was not correct. But he did not explain how dr why he knew it was not correct. The Yadkin Ripple . says - that there was no CommiiBioners Court last week, Iieearise- Wo of the mem beta had rio sox to wear and could not get out.. Now, we .don’t con­ sider that a. lawful excuse, because editors have to do all their travel ing without * sox, and sometimes without both shoes and sox. The Yadkin' Ripple opens its mouth very often and says things. Listen at this: , TheXtra-ordinamoussession; • of the Legislature" at Raleigh lastweek pissed a law submit; ;• ting to the voters of the whole state thequestion of state-wide prohibition. The election will be held on the 26th of May next, and the measure to be submitted allows the Eastern - grape growers to manufacture wine while it denies the west the privilege-hf making bran­ dy from, their fruit. - Why this’ discrimination? We are opposed to. Vrmskcy being sold or made In North Carolina, and we are also opposed to the manu­ facture and sale of wine in this State. Why not vote prohibition straight! Do the Democrats want prohibition!. Wine will make man as drunk as whiskey or even drunker. We believe in prohibit­ ion—prohibition that will prevent the manufacture and sale of all in toxicating drinks, and a law that will prevent all other states from . shipping wines and whiskies into North Carolina. The Democratic legislature did not want such law. Why! Simply because it is too much trouble for a fellow to - travel to New York or Washing­ ton to get on a booze.

Greensboro, N, C.,.Feb, 1,1908, -Pursuant to a resolution passed by the Republican State Executive Commute, at a meeting held in-the city of Greensboro, N .-G., on Jan. 30th, 1908, a State Convention of the Republican party of North Car olina is hereby called to meet in the city of Greesboro, N. C., at twelve o’clock noon, on Thursday, April 30th, 1908. This convention is called for the purpose of electing four delegates at large to represent the party in the National Republican nomina­ ting convention at Chicago, on June 6th, 1908; also to electa chair­ man of . the State Executive Com­ mittee, and six members of the committee for the State at large, and one committeeman from each Congressional district, the last named to be designated by .,the District delegation when assembled at the State Convention,, and to transact such’other business as may come-before the convention.- ' - - - «The plan of organization requires that delegates and alternates to all State conventions shall be elected by duly constituted County con­ ventions, called on at least fifteen days /notice Iof the time and place of such conventions. Representa­ tion in County conventions shall consist of one delegate for every twenty-five Republican votes, or fractional part thereof, cast in the precinct at the previous election for the Republican candidate for Governor, and in all other conven­ tions,. one delegate and one alter nate are apportioned to every one hundred votes, or fractional part thereof, cast in the previous elee tion for the Republican candidate for Governor. Provided, however, that each county shall be entitled to at least two votes in State, Con gressional, Judicial and Senatorial conventions. ‘ Our County chairman, as well as our Precinct chairman, are respect" fully urged to use all diligence in seeing that their respective coun­ ties are well and. frilly represented in this convention, as well as to give their conventions, when called the widest publicity. Let the con ventions in each county and town ship be conducted in such manner as to have a^full representation in the respective-conventions, and let every voter feel that he has a voice in the affairs of the party. . I t, was.. the: decided sense of the committee that a convention for the nominomination of a State ticket and the adoption of a platform of principles should not be called un­ til .muchlater in the year, when the.: National- nomination would1 have been made and the lines of battle r better mapped out than is possible now or at any very early date.

Ky., Feb. 4,—Fortner County Judge James Hargis, for' many years member of State Dem oeratic executive committee, ac­ cused of complicity in many kill ings and a prominent figure in the feuds which have disrupted Brea thitt county for several years was shot and instantly killed in his gen era! store here about 3:30 today by his son, Beach Hargis. The exact cause of the murder has not been learned, but it is supposed to have been the result of differences which have existed between fatheV and son for some time. The two men are reported to have had a severe quarrel several nights ago, <when the father, it Ib alleged, was com peljed to resort to violence to re­ strain his eon. Young Hargis, It is said,, had been drinking heavily of late. His 'father spoke to him abont drinking and a quarrel resulted.’ Father and son stepped behind a counter, when the son; after a few minutes conversation, drew a re­ volver and fired five shots.- Four took effect, -Judge Hargis' falling dead. Young Hargis-was arrested and placed in jail. He was raving like a maniac.and the officers werecom- pelled to drag him to jail, JudgeHargis has been- for'years' a. prominent figurwin Kentucky in political and: criminal circles/- He has figured in the courts' in the mountains for years on account of the^murders of Dr. Cox, Attorney Marcum and “Jim” Cockrill. Judge- Hargis was the political leader of the Democrats of the tenth district and - was .regarded as the “boss”-of Breathitt county. V - Judge Hargis will be buried iq ai casket costing $1j500.which he him-, self purchased about a month ago. A weak Stomach, means weak Stomach nerves, always. And this is also true Of the Heart, and Kidneys. It’s a pity that sick ones continue/ to drug the Storiiach or stimulate the Heart aridKidneys! Theweak ner­ves, riot the organs themselves, need this help. This explains why Dr. Shoop’s Restorative has, and is prom­ ptly helping so many sick ones. It goes direct to the cause of these dis­ eases. Test this vital truth, and see. C.’C. Sanford Sons Co. Tells Hoyr -to Prepare a Simple Mixture to Overcome Dread Disease. To relieve the-worst forms of Rheumatism, take a teaspoonful of the following, mixture after each meal and at bedtime: Fluid Extaact Dandelion, one-half ounce; Compound Kargan, one ounce; Compound Syrup Sarsaparilla, three ounces. These harmless ingredients can be obtained from our.home druggists, and are easily mixed by shaking them well in a bottle. Relief is generally felt from the first few doses. This prescription, states a well- known authority in a Cleveland morn­ ing paper, forces the clogged-up, in­ active kidneys to filter and strain from the blood the poisonous waste matter and uric acid, which causes Rheumatism. - As Rheumatism is not only the most painful and tortuous disease, but dangerous to life, this simpie re­ cipe will be no doubt greatly valued by many sufferers here at home, who shoulij at once prepare the mixture to get this relief. It is said that a person who would take this prescription regularly, a dose or two daily, or even a few times a week, would never have se­ rious Kidney or Urinary disordeas oa Rheuriiatism. Gukthis out and preserve it. Good Rheumatism prescriptions which re­ ally relieve are scarce, indeed, and when you need.it, you want it badly. Our druggists here say they will either supply these ingredients or make the mixture ready to take, if any of our readers so prefer. Grippe is sweeping the country. Stop it with Preventics, before it gets deeply sweated. To Check early colds with these little Candy Cold Cure Tablets is surely sensible and ' Preventics contain no Quin­ ine, no laxative, nothing harsh or sickening.

ROOT HOG, OR DIE. SOME THINGS THAT WILL KEEP Y O rGRINNING FOR A WEEK. WHEN THE CIRCUIT RIDER CAME In the backwoods of Ohio, in the _ days of long ago, When religion was religion, not a dressy fashion show, When the spirit of the Master fell as flames of living fire, And the people did the singing, not a trained, artistic choir, There was scarcely seen a ripple in life’s gently flowing tide, No events to draw the people from their daily toil aside, Naught to set the pious spirit of the pioneers aflame Save upon the rare occasions when the circuit rider came. He was usually mounted on the sor­ riest of nags, All his outfit for the journey packed in leather saddlebags, And he’d travel with the Bible or . the hymn bookia his hand. Beading sacred word or singing of the happy Promised Land. Howthetoilingwives would glory in dinners they would spread, And1Iiow many a hapless chicken or ajturkey lost its head By the gleaming chopper wielded by _ the hand of sturdy dame, For it wasn’t very often that the circuit rider came. All the settlement around us would be ringing with the news That there’d be ameetin’ Sunday, an we’d “taller” up our shoes, And we’d brush our homespun dress suits, pride’.of every youth, And we’d grease our hair with mar­ row till it shone like golden truth. v - ’- Andfrocks of linsey-woolsey would he donned by all the girls. And with heated old fire pokers they would make their corkscrew curls; . They were scarcely queens of fash­ ion, but were lovely, just the same, And they always looked their sweet­ est when the circuit rider came As a preaeher, holy Moses! how he’d swing the living word, How he’d draw the pious bretherin’ yet closer to the Lord, And he’d raise the hair of sinners sitting on the backmost seats With his fiery, lurid pictures of'the everlasting heat! We have sat in grand cathedrals, tri­ umphs of the builder's skill, And in great palatiai churches 'neath tne organ’s mellow thrill, But they never roused within us such a reverential flame As would burh in that old school- Jiouse when the circuit rider came. —Ex. An Appropriate'Answer. Acertain young man, while wait­ ing at Barber Junction last week ' witnessed the, following experience which he declares to .be a fact: A traveling salesman came in the waiting room and, after setting his grip down took a seat near the young man. The latter becoming .dissatisfied with his neighbor, rose to leave the room and, on passing the salesman’s .grip accidentally stumbled'over it. ' “Hey .there, , boy, what do you mean?” shouted the salesman, insultingly, ■; The young man. looked around with a long, dignified face on and, in sur­ prise but-with comical expression^ said; “Oh, nothing; just getting over the grip.’’ - : ' A Handy Way of Reckoning. ^ A man who had'recontly become engaged, to a charming young girl chanced-to bedha fashionable shop when his eybg chr^ht ai glimpse of a jeweled belt that seemed to him • ttn-acceptalble gift for his: financee; He asked a clerk to placegu assort-' ment of the'belts on Ihe counteFT f’ “Ladies’ belts?” queried: the po- . Iite salgsman.- ,“Certainly, sir.” 'r*.‘WjM» ai*el’’V.;.-. The young man blushed. ' “Real- aliy,” he stammered; “ I don’t know.” AHd he gazedabout/him helplessly for a moment or ,so. : Fi­ nally a happy thought appeared to •trike him. “Can’t, yon let me have a yard stick for a moment?he asked, The yard stick forthcom­ ing, he placed it along the side of his: arm from shoulder to. wrist. ' Then looking up at the clerk, he exclaimed, triumphantly-, inches!” * Ediiots vs. Doctors. One good, healthy doctor bill would run a printing office a month. Ah editor works all day for §2.00 with an investment of §3,000. A doctor looks wise and works ten minutes for $2.00 with an invest­ ment of 3 cents and a pill box that cost $1.36, A doctor goes to col­ lege a few years, gets a diploma and a strink of words thedevil him self can’t pronounce,' cultivates a look of gravity he palms off'for wisdom, gets a box of pills, a meat saw and sticks out his shingle a full-fledged doctor. He will then doctor you till you die, at a stipu­ lated priceper visit,and pn t th em as thick as your pocket-book will per­ mit. An editor seldom gets bis ed­ ucation finished, learns as long as he lives and studies all his life; he eats bran, mash and liver and takes his pay in hay and tnrnigs. If a doctor goes to see another man’s wife, he charges the the man for it; if an editor goes to see another man’s wife he gets a charge of buck­ shot. The editor helps men to live better and, the doctor assists them to die easy,—Exchange. Colored Banks—A Good Work for Them to Do. Arrangements are being made, to open a colored banking institution in Durham, with a capital of $10,- 000 and Rf. B. Fitzgerald, one of the wealthiest representatives of his race in that city at its head. For Bometime a bank; owned and operated by colored people has been conducted in Winston-Salem . It weathered the panicy times and seems to be doing a good business. If such institutions' could be in­ strumental in inducing colored peo pie to save their money for a rainy day and purchase for themselves a home, it. would be of great benefit to the race, who are inclined to spend all they make, rent and bunch themselves together in the cheapest of houses and their great est need is to_8 catter out and be come owners of their own homes.— Union Republican, Smith Brothen Brought from North Da­ kota to Greensboro.

Itwas a little station1 between Barber Junction and Winston-Salem where the couple “boded” the train. They looked to be about 25 years old. The man entered first, the woman following close at his heels, lashing him with her tongue. Her hands were ready, the spectators believed, to throttle him if necessary and hurl him in a seat. Some thought they were brother and sister; others thought them man and wife, and still others thought them lovers. Whatever they were they were fus- sin’. She did not talk with gloved tongue. She didn’t care"who heard her. ITe was determined to get off the train and she was determined that he should not. She drove him to a seat, the first one inside the door, and placed him on the end of the seat next to the window. She sat down by him and propped her feet across the only means of exit. Ilo made a move towards the door onee to get off, but she squared her­ self in front of him and made him return to the seat. He started again to get off whether or not. “You won't,” she yelled. “If you jump off I will, too, if I break my neck.” Then they sat down to talk it over. Asthe thermometer registers the rise and fall of the temperature so did the expression on her face indi­ cate the l-ise or fall of her temper. The young man seemed to have a- dopted the tactics that silence is gol­ den. He had little to say but sat and took his medicine as unconcern­ ed as possible. Finally he wanted to retire to the adjoining coach to smoke a cigarette but she would not let him go. He smoked right where he was, even though it was the first class coach. If the conductor had interfered the woman would have tongued him. Afj-C-:- f r !aJiad -kepfc-up-for half an hour, a smile began to form on the faces of both. Later it burst into a lioarty laugh and all seemed to be well with them from that on.-When they got off at Winston they seemed to be perfectly reconciled with each other.—Statesville Landmark. New Rates Effective April 1st. Washington, D. C., Feb. 6,—At the general offices of the Southern railway in this city the statement was obtained today that the act passed at the special session of the North Carolina Legislature regulat­ ing the charges of passenger trans­ portation in the State are in line with the uniform rate offered the Executives of the States of the South, which will be put in effect by all the railways of the South April 1st. The North Carolina Legisla­ ture could hardly do more .than rat­ ify the intra-State feature of the compromise offered by President Finley, of the Southern, which made the rate for the sale of intra-State tickets 21 cents. Georgia, Alabama, Tennessee, SouthCarolinaandNorth Carolina have already accepted Pres­ ident Finley's compromise, and . it only remains for the Virginia State corporation commission to fall into line. It is well understood here that the Virginia commission will promulgate the'new rate at an early I date. _. ... Proof of Skidls Crookedness; Scanty Creek (Tenn.)

There was trouble between the municipality of Hickory and the railroads last summer about the building of a railroad side track and during the night so much- of the track as had been laid down was tom up. Next morning the section boss and a crew started to relay the track and were forbidden by the mayor to proceed- The section boss persisted and as a result was arrest­ ed and locked up. It is now report­ ed that he will bring suit against the^town Of Hickory for $10,000 damages for false arrest and impris­ onment. The man’s name is not given. D. W.

He refused and was asked to give bond in the sum of $50 to appear and an­ swer at Catawba Superior Court. Not having the $50 handy Mr. Mill­ saps was incarcerated in the city prison, and will ask the city of Hick­ ory for $10,000 for damage to his reputation and mental anguish en­ dured while he languished in prison that hot July day.—Exchange.

Craig and Kitchin are. both want­ ing to be Govemer, but will they? Politics is warming up a little al­ ready. Things will reach the boil­ ing point before long.____ If watermelons had no seed, and fish had no bones, wouldn’t this be a fine old world to live in? The attention of every Republican in Davie county is called to the no­ tice of the county chairman, which appears on the first page. Something should be done in re­ gard to the roads in Davie county before another winter rolls around. Why not vote bonds for good roads? The Democratic party is in a mud­ dle. Some of the boys want Billy B: for president, and some do not. A house divided against itself can­ not stand. What has become of that graded school we were to have last- fall? A good many people would like to be put wise on this question before pay­ ing their taxes. Those fellows who cannot get a- ong without their early moming- iswig, had better lay in a few bar rels pretty soon, or they will have to drink branch water. Wehave lost one subscriber on account of advocating Taft for pres­ ident. Now, we would not have lost any sleep over such a small occur­ rence if the fellow hadn’t been be­ hind with his subscription. We notice in The Courier that the editor of that paper is the proud possessor of another son who, he says, is a Democrat and a Baptist. There is no doubt but that more de­ mocrats are needed, or will be need­ ed at the coming election. The time draweth nigh when some of the newspapers iii this, country, if they comply with the postoffice regulations, will have to suspend their publications for lack of sub­ scribers. PheRecord will have e- nough paid up subscriptions to keep running on. full time, from present indications. :>0:;«8»c8>4P<&<Sxax&>3» Countg I IFlews. All Communications of NEWS with writer’s name attached wiii be gladly accepted. 33 ■3°OO 3 33 It would seem from a perusal of last Friday’s Charlotte Observer, that the Republican State ticket is to be named by that paper. Do not be so fast, Bro. Caldwell. The Republican State Convention will very likely meet before the chilly winds of November whistle through the beards of the various political orators. DRIVEN TO EXTREMES. Republican leaders, Grant, Cow­ les, and Harshaw, have been forced to write letters to correct false accusation in editorials for political effeet as printed from time to time in the Raleigh News and Observer regarding their views and votes upon the railroad rate question in the i*ecent extraordin­ ary session of the. legislature. When confronted with the facts the Raleigh organ was forced to acknowledge the truth, but made no apology, for the erroneous im­ pressions it had intended to convey. Buch politics are disgusting, and the time , pas5ed when the leaders can hope to “fire the mass- es’’ ith such twaddle. The -very Bi1Iiall Republican minority in the Legislature “cut no figure” in legislation and the Democrats had it their own way. For the News and Observer to endeavor to de­ ceive the people under such con­ ditions, shows to what extremes the “State savers” and “Good Government” promoters have been driven to ballast the old barnacled ship of Democracy for the 1908 campaign -—Union Republican. Calahaln News Items. There will be a spelling at Cooks school house Friday night. ’ Sleigh riding seems to be quite the go now, or at least some of the school teachers think so. Messrs. Holloway Harris and Walter Anderson from Cana, R. I, were visiting in our community Sunday afternoon, but instead of falling were sadly disappointed. Mr. Lutn Richardsondenies look­ ing blue. He says he was only grieving over Miss M. E.x^ Misses Maggie and Agatha Fos ter spent Sunday afternoon with Miss Lillian Bagby. Mr. Hiram Cook says if he lives he expects -o trace “A Bunch of Beauties.” Be careful and keep the ball rolling. Mr. Wood Powell was down near Bear Creek visiting Sunday after­ noon: Am sure Miss Lolie was not looking blue. Misses Beulah Current and Mag­ gie Foster spent Tuesday night with Misses Bessie and Mamie Richardson. Miss Mamie Richardson’.is;,'con­ fined to her room with lagrippe, we are sorry to note. Messrs. Arthur and Richard Anderson resnmed their school work at Courtney Academy last Monday morning. Mr. Houston Anderson spcntSat- urday afternoon with Mr. John Brown. There will be prayer meeting at New Union every Wednesday night and also at Bear Creek on Sunday afternoon. Wehopetohavegood congregations. Hope the “Bunch of Beauties” enjoyed the’spelling at the college. We are sorry to note the illness of Mr. Will Cook. . Ask Mr. Wood Powell how he likes the school teacher at the col­ lege and the “Bunch of Beauties” will fail to shine. " Mr. John Brown, a gay old bach­ elor of our community is talking of going to Mocksvllle to work next summer. We are expecting to hear of Len Renegar going to preaching at any time. We hope to hear his first sermon which we are sure will be a flood one, for he has the appear­ ance and actions of a preacher. “Bunch of Beauties,’’comeagain. A L onely Bird . Cool Springs Items.

The water was still up yesterday. , There has been no farm work done yet. - The roads are getting in a bad condition. The rural mail carriers are having a hard time. W e had intended to work on Our road Sat urday, though the rains prevented us. We will work it as"soon as possible. The school pupils are having a serious time in getting to the school hoiise. Last week the parents were competed to hook up to convey­ ances and take them; and in the evening go after them. Miss Lea thy Williamsis our teacher.- She is'doing a good work: Tthiulc there has been very little said-to her con trary. Our.' school term has been prolonged, -the'boardhavinggiveu us $30 more which we appreciate very, much, doing away with, how­ ever, a subscription school which we had organized. A little band of us met at Society church Sunday and held Sunday school for an hour, during which time we spent in meditation of the “Healing of the Nobleman’s Son.” The crowd was small, the superin­ tendent being absent on account of high water, We Bbpe our school will grow in numberantfia spirit.

Letter From a Country Republican. Mn. Editor —Eorthe past30 or 40 years I have been voting the Repub­lican ticket. I have never held an office, don’t want one, and never ex­ pect to ask for one. The most of we country Republicans are not asking •for nor are we expecting, office, but we wish to see Republicans in office, and making our laws, Jor we have learnedby experience what Demo­cratic rule in the nation means. We expect to vote the Republican ticket this year, but we want to say a -few things right now, so that all men may know how we country folks stand. The hews has come to us that the Democrats are making a fight on our. postmaster at Mocksville, and the reason, Mr. Editor, why we- call him our postmaster is‘ because nearly three-fourths of the mail for the peo­ple of Davie county passes through the Mpcksville postoffice, Ed Morris -has done more to give we country people every day mail, than any man in the eounty, and whenever we coun­ try folits want anything, and go to Mocksville and ask Ed to help us we get everything we want if Ed can get it for us, and it he cdn’t do it himself he helps us and tells us how to go at it. You town folks may think we country folks ain’t - got anything to do with who is postmaster because We don’tjive in Mocksville, but we think we have, for we get our mail from there, and Ifor one want to say tha we are having the best mail service we have ever had, and we want Ed to continue as postmaster. We don’t know, w hether any of the-, town Re publicans are against'him or not, ant we are not going to say they are, bui we hear that some of the; Democrats are trying to make that-impression. The Democrats who are circulating these reports are doing it for a pur­ pose, and the Republicans in Mocks­ ville,'should be able to see through their schemes. The Democratic ma­ chine has never liked Ed, and they have said som^ mighty mean things about him, and ’th a t' is .one' reason, ,why we country folks like, him, and want him, for we know what Ed Iiai. done since.he has.been .in the .Repub?. iican-party. • Ed isnot the first Re­ publican Democrats have said meaii things about, and he ain’t going to be the last one. According to Demo­ crats dead Republicans are the only good kind, and Ed Morris likes a great deal of being a corpse, and they know it, and his personal enemies will find it out before they die. We hear - that Ed is charged with having two lights. Who with? We country folks know, and we think more of'him for iL- We­ ave not going to write much more but we country Republicans know what Ed has done, .. I have known him for 20 years, and while he was a Demo­ crat, he was.a gentleman, and he li­the same gentleman today. Por ten years he has fought for the Republi­ can party, giving his time and' his means for the cause, and when Re­ publicans, were slandered during, the campaigns, he was standing up an-: swenng the charges, and now when •he is being fought by some of . the same crowd, every Republican wor­ thy of the name should stand by him to a finish.. Wc are not goinv to make any threats, but our eyes are; opeii, and we are ready to stand up and be; counted on the side of the right. Ed . has asked no favors of us, but-when he wants our help we are with him. Country Republican . Grippe is sweeping tlto countryi Stop it with Preventics, before it gets deeply seated.

So far it is not IciioiVnJrom whence they came or whither they went, but they were evidently prosession- ais, having looked the situation over before the daring deed and learned the customs of the bank, one of which was keeping open (■Saturday evenings for the accom­ modation of the Shop clement, Sat­ urday being pay day. The alarm was not given until this morning, when the wbeae- bouts of Cashier YYhisnant was sought after by his home people. The search Was hegun and on en­ tering the bank the cashier was heard in the^ vault trying to give the alarm, having survived through the Dight owing to a-small ventila­ tion in the vault. One of the bank officers about. town was ; eenred as soon as possible and Whisnant given his freedom. The loss was covered by burglar insurance.

When an eminent authority an­ nounced m the Scranton. (Pa.) Times that he had found, a new way to treat that dread. American disease, Rheu­ matism, with just common; every­ day drugs found in any drug store, the physicians were slow indeed to attach much importance to his claims.. This was only a few months ago. To­ day nearly every newspaper m the country, even the metropolitan dai­ lies, is announcing it and the splen­ did results achieved. It is so simple that anyone can prepare it at home at small cost. It is made-up as fol­ lows: Get from anv good present Tion prarmacy Fluid .Extract Dande­ lion, one-half oudce: Compound Kar- gon, one ounce: Compound Syrup Sarsaparilla, three ounces. Mixby shaking in a bottle and take in tea­ spoonful doses after each meal and at bedtime.. These are all simple in­ gredients,- making an absolutely harmless home remedy at little cost. Rheumatism, as every one knows, is a symptom of deranged kidneys. It is a condition produced by the failure of the lndneys to properly filter or strain from the blood the uric acid and other matter which, if not eradicated, either m the urine or through the skin pores, remains m the blood, decomposes and forms about the joints and muscles, caus­ ing the untold suffering and defor-" mity of rheumatism.. * This prescription is said to be a splendid healing, cleansing and in­ vigorating tonic to the kidneys, and gives almost immediate relief m all forms of bladder and urinary trou­ bles and backache. He also, warns people m a leading New York paper against the discriminate use of many patent medicines: The Wachovia Loan & Trust Co., of Winston, are mailing free to all farmers who will write them, or call at their bapk. a Planters Record, One of the most useful record books for the farmer that we have seen, as it is a great advantage to,, them in keeping valuable information for time to come..

Thesisterboiufht a pair of hose for hfrself. The clerk got the packages mixed. The sweetheart received a pair of long black stock­ ing'- bj mail, accompanied by this note: “I am sending you a little present. Oh, how I wish that no other bands than iuine might touch them after you put them on. Bat, alas! a score of fellows may touch them when I am not by your side, and other eye? raay see them when you are on the street or at parties, I bought the bast pair I could get, and if they are too long you may let them wrinlde down.

Said a young and tactless husband To his inexperienced wife: “If you would but give up leading Sach a fashionable life Aod devote more time to cooking How to mix and when to bake— Then perhaps you- might make pastry Such as mother used to make.” And the wife, resenting, answered Pdr the worm will turn you know: ‘•If you would but give up horses And a score of clubs or so To devote more time to business— When to buy and what to stake— •3?hen perhaps you might make money Such as father used to make.” HEN EGGS.

The regular minister was sick, and a preacher from a nearby town was asked to take charge of • the services, and he arrived at the last moment, a total stranger in the town. When he started to speak he launched into an elo­ quent eulogy , of the deceased, as was his custom, and was just be­ ginning to pay a glowing tribute to the departed one when it sud­ denly dawned upon him'-that lie did not know whether it was a man or a woman. Stooping down he whispered- in the ear of an old man who sat be­ side him: “Was the deceased a brother or a sister!” * The oldman was a trifle deaf, «o the minister repeated the ques­ tion. •‘No, no,” said the man.

A rural mail carrier at Wier Ci­ ty, Kansas, hugged his sweetheart before taking the precaution to pull down the blinds. An envious old maid saw the performance, be­ came greatly scandalized and ped­ dled the story all over the neigh­ borhood. Not satisfied, she filed complaint against the PostOfiice Department that the young man be dismissed. The Departmentheld that a person in the carrier service might ling a girl, provided she wanted to be huged, and therefore the charge was not sufficient ground for dismissal. We would suggest that Congress appropriate two mil lion dollars to lure men to hug old maids.—Free Press, Miller, Mo. Wise Dog. As the train pulled out of the station, a woman, who had just gotten on, was informed by the conductor that she would have to either let him put the dog she had in the baggage car or to take her her dog and go "into the Gtuoking car. She decided that rather thaB have her doggie chained in the baggage car she would go into the smoker. The car was crowded and the only vacant seat was be­ hind a man who had the window at his side open and was smoking a long stemed pipe, and she seated herself there. The wind coming in at the open window blew the smoke from this fellow’s pipe right back into her face. She stood it «s long as she could, then reaching over sbeknockedthe pipe out of the man’s, mouth and out of the window. The man deliberate­ ly turned around and seizing-the dog threw it out the window, the same way she had done his pipe. The woman went into hysterics and raned an awful row. At the station she had the conductor tele­ graph ahead to have an officer meet the train. The conductor taking the man aside told him that the train aside told him that the train stoppedatajunction onthe out­ skirts of the nest city and that If he wanted to, he could escape be­ fore they arrived at the station, as the woman had a good case of cruelty to* animals charged against him. But he Obstinately refused, as he said she had no right to throij his pipe away. When the train stopped the officer tock charge of his man and they were just getting, ready to leave when the woman let out a scream and the men turned and looked and there came the dog walking up the track smoking the pipe.—Ex.- The Thoughtful Grocer.

Ko more unusual or pathetic scene was ever witnessed in the county jail where there is always pathos and tragedy than was wit' nessed yesterday morning in that grim building. A wife and five little children were being sent away after having followed the husband and father to the jail the night before and insist­ ed on being locked up along with him. William Franklin M cDowell, white, aged about 38 years, was ar­ rested Monday in Thomasville on a charge of retailing. His wife is al­ so indicted on the same charge. The deputy who went after Mc­ Dowell with a capias, did not wish to bring the woman, and offered to take a mortgage on their little household stuff for bond, tor her; but she wouldn’t give bond. “If you take my man you take me,” she told the officers “Her man” was taken, and last night she followed from Thomaa- ville, with her five little children, the oldest of whom is scarce a doz­ en years of age and the youngest a child in arms. 8 he went direcfrto the jail and literally broke into it over the pro­ testations of the jailer, Col. Har­ vey Johnson. Sheriff Delap, at his wits end, told the jailer to take them in, and he would toot the bill for their night’s lodging and meals, bnt that they must go back to Thomasville the next day. Yesterday in time for Ko 36 they were seat away, perhaps the only people who ever had to be driven away from the county prison.

Bad Money in Spencer and Salubury. A good imitation of a Bilver doll* Iar dated. 1899 is being circulated in Spencer and SsJiebary. ■ So much is the counterfit like the genuine that it is difficult to detect it, and it is believed that a good many of Ihe coihs are in circulation. The officers are trying to find out whence they come. A weak Stomach, means weak Stomach nerves, always. And this is also true of the HearJ. and Kidneys. It’s a pity that sick ones continue to drug the Stomach or stimulate the HeartandKidneys. The weak ner­ ves, not the organs themselves, need this help. This explains why Dr. Shoop’s Restorative has, and is prom­ptly helping so many sick ones. It goes direct to the cause of these dis? eases. Test this vital truth, and see. C. C. Sanford Sons Go.

TAFT of Ohio. - A citizen of Mocksville has re­ quested ns to give him space to say a few things in The Kecord. His articles are all Bigned “P.” and a number of them appear in this is­ sue. Our columns are open to all who wish to use them. The fastest trotter of the season has entered the ring. The “big three are banking ail theirjsurplus cash on his trotting qualities. The blue ribbon they can now almost see dangling from their belts. There is nothing succeeds like suc­ cess, and all records are expected ,to be. broken-. - ■ P. The citizens and tax; payers pi 'the town would like to know-when • -the' next meeting of the town com­ missioners is to be held, as certain citizens desire to appear before . said hoard and make, application for an appropriation for- the pur chase of gondolas to navigate the streets with, if there are any funds available at this time. P. ft We would suggest that at the next meeting of the town commis­ sioners that an appropriation be made sufficient to;pnrchase a-new checker boirrd. as ' some of those nowin use are getting old and' Worni and the good old summer time will soon be here, and the “INS AND OUTS” should not .be required to purchase one at their own expense. P. The citizens and taxpayers on Salisbury street who have only one ft lamp, after you turn the corner at . Bailey & Martin’s store between that point and Mr. T. L. Kelly’s would like to know (with a police man who is costing the taxpayers between $500 and $700 per year) why this lonely little lamp is not lighted on ah average of more than. ■ one night a week? Is it possible that our policeman is overworked, and can’t do the work required o( him. Thesepeopleare entitled to a light. Why is it? P. When a man or set of men re­ fuse to patronize home industry, and send their hard-earned cash to Northern niail order houses, they are doing everything under the sun they can to put their - home merchant and their home town out of business. Tney do not seem to realize, that While they are killing the town. they, are also breaking / / their own neck. The mail order* houses don’t credit you when you are sick; they don’t lend you cash ft when you get in a tight pinch, and they don’t give you work when you are out of a job, Be a man.. Stand by the men and the town that stand by you. M hiIe we were in Tennessee last week, our office boys sent a little fellow over to the Courier office witharequestfortheloan of the Courier’s editorial staff. -AVhen the little fellow came back the of­ fice boys were horrified to see the youngster staggering under the •weight of the editorial staff, which consisted of a big rotten pumpkin. It we bad called the editor of the Cmrierarotten pumpkin, doubt­ less we would have received-a good mauling at his hands, but it seems that he is not afraid to liken him­ self to a rotten pumpkin. Should the editorial section of the Courier be missing this week, the friends of that paper need not be surprised for the editorial stafi lieth behind our office slowly rotting into noth­ ingness.

M r . EDiTORr-Sinee reading Coun­ try Republican’s letter in last week’s issue of the E^ord.ftvl havq: been thinking, thinking, blinking,: The first. thouglit jhatftentCr^d my head was that Davie is a Republican coun­ ty and has been since 1882,-* Not un­ til Djec. 1st. 1896, fourteen years ago, did the Republicans get control of the finances of the county. What did they find? ,.A bonded debt of twenty-seven'thousand dollars and a floating debt Of nearly three thous­ and dollars, making in all nearly thirty thousand dollars of indebted­ ness: Go look at the books' today. Not a cent of floating; debt; ‘ and ev­ ery dollar paid, or - money on hand sufficient to pay every cent the Coun­ ty owes, and the county and state taxes today do not equal the town tax Now with such a record does it not Iqok like the Republicans are capable of managing their own afr fairs? But what do' we fihd?; We find a self-eohstithted, self-appoiht-- ed board- of refereds, ,consisting 1Of three democrats and not a! single Republican On the. board,.1 who, are attempting to: parcel out. the federal offices, for the? Republicans' in Davie county.. t This, boards is fashioned, af­ ter the board,appointed by the> Der inocfatie legislature to: enquire; into the affairs and management , ofr the Norfh Gardlind railrpadftnot a [.sin­ gle Republiean wdf pn it. NoW the question arises; who delegated I this power to Billy Clement, Chairnian Of- the Kfj Iy Willson and John A, Current! We don’t believe’ the Jfepublicahs of Da­ vie county ate going ' toft recognize them and allow, the big.thtee to di­ rect dndcontrol their affairs.' Now WC are in a sense a foreigner. for we were neither boni in Davie, ; nor have yrd spfent all of. oweBdiefthr the county , but we ^ e one. of ‘ the , Citii' zens riow; aiifl be­ come Americaniato sufficiently to toke .an in Davie county af­ fairs. Now let’s see what’s , going- on right here in Mocksville, This Democratic board of referees, by. actual count, have approached be­ tween eight and ten; different Re­ publicans, and offered-them the en­ dorsement of from 75 to 90-per cent, of the Democratsjf they would ;get up a petition: for. the ,postmaster’s place.. In this proposition the big three (Ciemepto WiJlsqn; and Cur­ rent) are arrogating, to themselves the absolute power of controlling 75 to 90 per Cent of the Democrats of Mocksville and are ; ready arid* will-' ing to deliver them to the Republi can who will butt in at : this time. Now we desire to. call the attention ’of the Republicans to one phase of this case. For 26 years the- Repub licans have been nominating men for the county-offices,-and we want to ask them if either of these refe- rees have ever approached a single Republics- candidate - during the campaign and offered fb deliver any per Cqnf• qf the Democratic vote to the Republicans? If not then, why do they at this time manifest - such love and.affectionjfor these 8 or 10 Republicans, whom they have at­ tempted to make love to for the past three weeks? . They concede at most 25 per cent. of the Democrats of the town are not;ip their posses­ sion to' deliver ft Now if you will add this 25 per Cent, of Democrats to the Republicans, the “big 3” are in the minority. But the truth of the whole concocted scheme and plot dote not show on the surface, and youwill have to... dig, 'dqwn, Jnj the filth andTnife of Democratic meth­ ods to fish out,, the true., ipwardness of thistoeir last effort r beforer toe November Waterloo, which awaits them. -They are after bigger- game than the postoffice, the fight against him, is only a skirmish, before the regular battle to follow, and if they can create disaffection in ottr ranks stir u{f -'strife among-- ust thereby hoping to split us up. They think they can dotoat which : they know they cannot do of themselves,- Iri conclusion, Mr.- Editor, we ate of the opinion that the big- three can find more profitable, employment elsewhere, than butting into Repub-; licans’ affairs. If they have been asked to look ‘after our affairs, we have not been so informed. • They are self-constituted, self-invited dic­ tators, and.could, in tour ‘opinion, spend their time: more profitably*: the one looking after the affairs of the town, for which We are taxed to pay him for services, rendered, toe- other two looking after their per­ sonal affairs, which might be ma­terially improved by the use Of a lit­ tle,muscle and brains properly di­ rected and not entirely devoted to' other people’s business, for which they Will receive no reward nor can toey, hope -for either reward'' or thanks.

There’s trouble in the print-shop No language can express, For Friday’s rolled around again. The day we go to press. The compositors are hustling fast, Each has a dirty proof, The make-up man is cussin’ In a way to raise the roof. The “devil’s” pied a galley full Of solid nonpareil. The foreman’s saying things to him That make the brimstone smell. The stenographer is jawin’ ’bout An ink-spot on her dress. And any gol durned fool can tell We’re trying Io get to press. Everything is all “balled up,” The forms are in a mess, And now the Old Man’s asking: When we’re going to press? • Through the'room there rings aloud A piercing h-l-born wail— The office-dog is yelpin’ ’cause They’ve stepped uponjiis tail. The pressman now is ready—but The d—d old forms won’t “lift,” So he whittles out a “dutchman” And gives_his quid a shift. The forms are on the press at last, The press is running great— But we've got to take 'em off again— “Forgot to change the date?” They’re on again; the motor’s down; We're running swift and slick. But a paper’s on the roller now, And you bet it’s there to stick The whole d—d bunch is mad as sin, And cussin’ more or less, For h-1 breaks loose on Friday, when The paper goes to press. —Exchange. A Serious Accident. Mocksville, N. 0. (Special.)— While cleaning the mud off of a lady’s shoes in the station yard re­ cently, Egbert Peavy, one of our townsports, had the misfortune to sprain his wrist. The doctor in­ forms us that he thinks he will be all right in. a few days, but he will have to avoid taking hold of any­ thing that requires him to open his hand quite so wide. There are several cases of small-pox in Iredell, Wilkes, Yadkin counties. «S3SE A Giood Story. A story is told of Butherford B. Hayes that while attending school at Cenyou college he was in the habit of taking daily walks in the country. These trips were shared by two intimate companions who were of a funloving disposition, which frequently got them into trouble.. On one accasion they more than met their match in rep­ artee of an old farmer whom they met on a highway. The long white beard of the farm­ er gave him a patriarchal appear­ ance, and while he was approach­ ing the students they arranged to give him a jollying, which eventu­ ally terminated iu the discomfiture of the youths. One of them doffed his hat with great respect as he said; “Good morning, Father A- braham.” The second saluted the farmer and said: ‘‘Good morning, Father Isaac.” Hayes, not to be outdone in politeness extended his hand as he said:. .“Good morning, Father Jacob.” Ignoring.the out* stretched hand of Hayes, the form­ er replied: “Gentlemen, yon are mistaken in the man. I am neither Abraham, Isaac nor Jacob, but ml, the son of Kish, who was sent out to seek his father’s asses, and lo! I have found three of them.” The Editor'* Falte Alarm. Bismarck (N. Dale.)

I am proud of myself for being in circulation. I am no tomato can dollar—not I.This town is only my adopted home, but I like it and hope to remain permanently: When I came out of the mint I was adopted into k town like this in another state. But after a time I was sent off to a big city, many miles away. I turned up in a Mail Order house. For several years I stayed in that city. Millionaireshought cigars with me. I didn’t like that for I believe yi the plain people. Finally a traveling man brought me to this town and left me here. I was so glad to get back to a smaller town that I determined to make desperate efforts to stay.One day a citizen of this town was about torsend mfr back to that big city. I caught him looking over a Mail Order Catalogue. Suddenly I found my voice and said to him—he was a dentist, by the way: “Now look here, doc. If you’ll only let- me stay in this town I’ll circulate around and do you lots of good. You buy a big beefsteak, with me, and the butcher will buy groceries, and the grocer will buy : dry goods, and the dry goods merchant will pay his ' doctor’s bill with me, and the doctor will spend me • with a farmer for oats to feed his buggy horse, and the farmer will buy soine fresh beef from the tntch- , er, and the butcher will come abound to yon and get his tooth mended. In the long run, as you see, I’ll be more useful to you here at home than if you’d send me away forever.” Dock said it was a' mighty stiff argument. He hadn't looked at it in that HgKTbefore. Sohewent and brought the big beefsteak; and I began to circulate around .home again. Now, just suppose all the.other dollars that are sent to Cmcago or some other big city were kept circulating right here at home. Youcoulaseethistown grow/ - !HONEST NOW-AlNT I RIGHT?! There are many of our best people who order all of their articles from mail order houses.' We once knew a man who even went so far as to order all his meat, flour, sugar, coffee, dry goods and notions from a Chicago house. What benefit is such a man to his town and county I Such men as he aie -cot missed when they are jerked hence. Beamanl, I TrainJntended to Commit Suicide. - I Squaw Creek (Ca!.)
