A man he was, of ponderous jaw, and raven locks, some like a lion— he made a burst with books and law, the peerless, fearless, Willie Bryan. But when his jaw in action got; the gate receipts were palled Bkyhigh—luugtesters always got red hot when Bully Billy yelled Ki Ki. An editor of a western paper re-, cenlly stated that he had been kissed by one of the most beautiful married women in the town. He promised to tell her name in, the first issue of his paper next month. In two weeks the circulation of his paper doubled. But when he gave the name of his wife he had to leave town.* - -The latest from New York is to the effect that a “simple Iite col ony,” where men, women, and children will go naked and the men are to never cut their hair or beards, will be started this fall near Vera Cruz, Mexico, by Gustaf H. Ander, well known in the Socialistic circles and who now lives at 22 East 76. street, New York. More than fifty persons have become his followers and have promised to sail for the tropics when he sails. Ander ex pects by September 1st to have 500 people with the same ideas he has. “When we get down to Mexico,” he says, “we will get rid of all our clothes. Of course some of us will hold on to a few bits, naturally. ; But before long, when we have all become pnre in heart, we will have no need for even fig leaves.” It is remarkable that this fellow Andre could thiuk of going off to ; Mexico before voting for his darling Debs for president. But of course there will be charms in the tropics. Yea gods, what next! Hot Shot From The Vindicator. Scvierviile is on the boom, one editor was arrested for drunkenness and the other for swearing a lie. Weare glad to state that our Recorder has recently- reformed and does not consume more than two gallons of corn juice -per day now. This is a pretty good record for a temberaude (!) leader in a dry town. We know id would be to our in terest if whiskey could be voted out of existence'but Sb longas tem perance leaders keep their breath flavored with s veet smelling Bpices our appetite will cry out for our portion. Work was commenced on the Knoxville, Sevierville and Easterp Railroad, near Knoxville, Monddy, June 8, 1908. Thfs is good news for the citizens of: Sevier county, as it now looks like we are ^soon going to have cbnhectiou with the business world. Sevier county: is a rich county inr natural resources and a railaoad will give stimulus to all kipds of industries in the county, and bring greater prosper ity to all classes of our people, W e predict that a , wave prosperity is now on the eve of striking Sevier county and will continue until our county is one Qf the richest counties in the State of Tennessee.'■gu.-—: ■ r School Girls Lbse Tranks. Wednesday night after'the clos ing exercises at Winthrop College, Rock Hill; SvO,, 99 trunks belong ing to theiyoung ladies were sent to the depot and loaded on a bag gage car; and during the night the car caught fire and was consumed, and ninety and nine charmers woke up Thursday morning to find that they had no clothes except what they wore the the night before. The railroad company is said to be responsible to the extent of $100 per trunk, $9,900 cash. ' There was weeping and waiiiug when tie girls found out their fate. Ti e boyB7 pictures and the billy do and the ribbons and things “wuz” gone, turned to ,cold, wet ashes' bown by the railroad tracks. ' . Hot Shot From The Caucasian. If Mr. Craig is defeated for the- Democratic homination for Gover nor, he might later try for a place on the Supreme^Court bench. It, is said that about eight years ago he had high aspirations for such a position. Hoke Smith was defeated in his race for re election as Governor of Georgia, and the News and Obser ver and Glenn thought j.t a calam ity, but several o f'th e Georgia papers' say that business is already improving in that State. In his speech at Wadesboro last Saturday Mr. Oraig lamented the fact that the gubernational cam paign has grown so bitter, and said that-fore-knowledge of such would have kept him out of the running. It is not too late yet for Mr. Craig to withdraw, as the campaign promises, to get much warmer be fore the end, and the convention at Charlotte will be just a little above the boiling point. Plowed up Englisk Gold. A report says that Willie Thomp son plowed up about $2,000 of English gold in a field near Saxa- pahaw, Alamance, county, one day last week. He and his brother were plowing a field, when one of them discovered one piece of mon ey. It soon developed that there was a rotten-wooden box in the ground in which many years ago had been placed 413 pieces of Britr ish money of the ‘ pound sterling denominations, each piece being worth about five . dollars in ourI ' ■ imoney. It is supposed that the money was buried in time of the revolutionary war by some English soldiers. Not long ago in the same community some English gold was discovered by a man splitting wood, the gold having been put in a hole bored in a tree and plugged, and the man’s axe turned tight ou it after more than a century.— Ex. Land Deeded to Jesus Christ KansasCity Star. A peeuliar deed discovered by abstractor of Randolph county, conveys 120 acres of land near Darksvillfe to Jems Christ, says the Stoutsville Banner. The deed had been made in 1850 by Johnson Wright and Eliza Wright, his wife, and had never been contest ed. The descendants of the fam ily had held -the property “in trust” and had thrived upon it. The story-is that being very pious this old couple wished to" return by deed of will and law to their Saviourthe mateiial blessing which He had conferred on them in this life. BUSINESS LOOKING UP. In looking over the business world the past, week, prosperity wooers were greatly encouraged by the news of commercial activities and -industrial resumptions on the 1st of June, and at the same time the commercial agencies reported for May a decided decrease in the number of failures and in ,the vol ume of defaulted indebtedness. The Miading of steel prices stimu lated buying and building" opera tions, and a big order for Russian rails steadied the m arket.. At St. Louis alone thousands of men went back to work, and in New England mills resumed on full time, while good crop reports come from every quarter. AU things considered and with the Republican National Con vention over and the next Presi dent nominated, with policies and principles practically assumed, as outlined in the Republican Nation al platform, there is no reason why business should not be resamed as usual in every department and an other era of prosperity prevail throughout the length and dreadth of the United States.—Union Re publican. v Brandy This Summer. ‘Tm going to have me some apple and peach brandy made and lay it away,” is a Common remark these daysv The. coming drouth is one rea7 son for the leaning toward storage, and the good crop is another. For several years there has been so little fruit that brandy was scarce. This year there is a large fruit crop, es pecially in the mountains. The Wilkes Patriot says.th&t there will fce a hundred distilleries in Wilkes alone, 50 in Yadkin county and 25 in AllV ghany. It is the last call for supper. Fired by Robbers. The store of Webb Brothers, gen eral merchants on the-Mocksville road, seven' miles from Statesville, was burned to the ground one night last week and it is believed that rob bers did it.

With this issue The Record, com pletes its ninth year strong and lus ty. It has traveled a hard road, but by standing up afld fighting for the rights of the people it has won a place in the hearts of the masses, which it is proud.?of. Often in its battle for what it knew and believed to be right with the opposition using unfair and unjust means to destroy it, it won out, and many of those who differed with its politics have commended its course and encour aged its editor. To be right and uphold the laws of our land has been its beacon light, and it has never, for fear or favor, lost sight of its compass. To its friends it doffs its'hat, with thanks for their patronage and steadfast support, in the future as in the past, promising to do its duty as best it knows how in the building up of our- country, and the betterment of its people.

Princetion, 5T. J., June 24.— 'Grover Cleveland, twice President of the United Statest died at 8.40 o’clock this morning at his home “ West Land” in th'is quiet college' town, where he had lived Bince his retirement as the nation’* chief ex ecutive, almost twelve years ago. Whendeath came, which was sudden, there were in the death, chamber on the second floor of the Cleveland residenoe, Mrs. Cleve land, Dr. Joseph D. Bryant, of New York, Mr. Cleveland’s family physician and personal triend; Dr. George R. Lockwood also. oflNew York, and Dr. John M. Carnochan, of Princeton. An official statement given ont and signed by the three physicians gave heart, trouble, superinduced by stomach, and kidney ailments of long standiug as the cause of death. While Mr. Cleveland had been in - poor health for the last two years and had lost a hundred pounds in weight, his death came unexpect edly. Some three weeks ago he was brongbt home from Lakewood, where his condition for a time was such that the hotel at which he was staying was kept open after its re gular season because he was too ill bemoved. But whenMr. Cleve land was brought back io Prince ton he showed signs of improve ment and gained five pounds in weight. The Republican party has -a good chance to elect a governor this fait if they will put out the right qtai). I am a Republican rooster, but I am crowing over the defeat of the great “impeachor,” the man Craig, who laid his vile. bands on our judiciary for. partizan purpos es. There is retribution in his tory. Ex.-Chitf Justice D. M. lurches has gone to his reward, leaving an unsullied name and re putation to his state. Locke Craig his defamer. who tried to drag his good name down in the dust, has had meted out to him at Charlotte a crushing defeat. Retributive justice has overtaken him; Judge Furches has passed over the river, out of reach of the Locke Craig stripe of politician. Davie county, the birthplace of Judge Furohes, rejoices at the defeat of this man Craig,, who attempted to drag our Judges down to his base level. CourtnejrJtems.

C.> June 27,—Wil liam Walton Kitehin, of Roxboro, representative in Congress for the Fifth district, was nominated for governor on the sixty-first ballot by the state Demoeraitic convention here this evening shortly before eight o’clock, after Ashley Horne, of Clay ton, had withdrawn from the race. The final ballot "'stood: Kitehin, 473.59; Craig, 381.72; Horne, 1.69. Necessary to nominate, 429. . : The nomination came after the convention had been in sesson for four days, during which sixty ballots were taken, about an hour being required W take each ballot. Worn out by the incessant work of the convention, sleepless and tired, the men who represent the ninety-eight counties were glad when the end came. Kitehin had been slowly gain ing since the balloting started and his men; the radical element, stood by him like the old guard of Napole on. Each vote that was added stuck. On the last ballot before Horne withdrew he received 399 votes or 24 more than he received on the first j ballot.: Craig had ' steadily lost, while Home’s kept about the same. Bethel S. S.

SOME THINGS THAT WILL KEEP YOU GRINNING FOR A WEEK. Blackberry Pie. Blackberry pie! It holds a place in the estimation of all lovers, of good thingB—to eat that no other product of the land or sea occupies Blackberry pie bridges the ..chasm between the millionaire and the pauper. It is found on the ma hogany table of the haughty society leader and on the oil cloth covered pine table of the lowly washer woman. It is on the bill of fare of the inmates of the poor house. The rich man who rides in his gasolene h.uggy and the poor tramp who rides the rods under the freight cars or steps from crosstie to cross tie in the blistering sun meet on a common level at the lunch counter and both order blackberry pie. In a word blackberry pie is the one article of diet which makes the world kin. Blackberry time, good folks, is here.—Monroe Inquirer. “Oh Death, Where is Thy Sting?” The students of an Eastern col lege grew so reckless in their be havior that the professor one morn ing at chapel thought to reprove their conduct by a lecture on mor ality. They listened with due sub mission and hnmility, In the . course of his lecture he said: itMy young friends, the floors of hell are paved with champagne, automobiles and chorus girls.” He was horrified to hear one of the students say in a sepulchral tone: “Oh, Death, where is thy sting?” I bought me a suit of the Sears- buck brand; they said it was sewed and tailored by hand; they said it was woven of finest we©I, and couldn’t be torn by an angry bull; . they said it was fine and would surely last, till Gabriel tooted the final blast. It was ten cents cheap er than the suits I’d bought, from local dealers, who seemed quite ^hot and shed a bucket of briny tears, when I bought my clothes of the Sawbuck Sears. I wore' that suit when tha day was damp, and it shrank to the size of a postage stamp: the coat split up and the Yest split down and I scared the horses all over town, for the but tons popped.-and the seams they tore, and the stitches gave with a sullen roar. And I gave the suit to a maiden small who found it handy to dress her doll. Beferring to the “unusually large crop” of blackberries, the Waxhaw Enterprise says “hard times are over and everybody is in clover.” Then it renders hearty applause by loudly exclaiming “Hurrah” four times. After having a Controversy with Monroe Journal on the con tention that it is not becoming for ladies to go to the polls in a pro hibition election, we presume that the editor of the Enterprise will now undertake to put up any ar gument to show that it is not be coming for ladies to make black berry pies for men to eat.—Our Home. CoL Joe Reece Sniffs Mint. When a man has nothing to do or when he is unable to work he is mighty apt to get some bad notions in his head. For instance, a bed of extra fine mint has been discov ered right at one of the "windows on the south side of the Record. of- flbe,- surrounded by roses, vines $nd shrubbery. It is on a direct line between where we are forced to sit all day long, and -the pffice For two.days we thought we de tected a once familiar odor, but waved it aside; yet the fragrant Ira grance kept floating in, and finally by begging and entreaty we secured an investigation and there it is in all its glory—a fine bed of mint mint that would cause a Jtroad smile on the face of Co!. Watterson But think of mint' right at your door—elegant, superfine mint—and nothing with which to use it J A.nd a man sick, too! It’s just awful It is what Squire Wolfe calls “ ar- gumenting” a man.—Greensboro Becord. Mr. and Mrs. Gjt-of-sky live near Pixebrook, New Jersey. They Pointed Paragraphs. He who looks'for trouble finds fault. No, Cordelia, the biggest words do not always have the most weight. ' Birthdays, holidays/and wed dings are what keep the average man poor. Many a man who knows himseli hasn’t any cause to boast of the ac quaintance. There isn’t much satisfaction in downing a man who doesn't mind being downed. ■rA girl doesn’t think Bhe is a full- fledged woman until she has made a man’s heart ache.

Anenvious oldi maid saw the performance, became I greatly scandalized and peddled | the story all over the neighborhood. Not satisfied she filed complaint with the Post Office Departnient that the young man be dismissed. The Department held that a person in the carrier service might hug a girl, provided she wanted to be bnged, and therefore the charge was not sufficient grounds for his dismissal, We would suggest that Congress appropriate two million dollars to lure men to hug old maids, are both foreigners, PoleB or Bus- sians we suspect. They have not learned the art of small families or at any rate they have not been able to put their knowledge into prac tice. They were married in 1892. They have been quite successful, especially in the matter of children. They now have 30 children and they keep arriving, usually in pairs or trios, but recently there were four arrived at the same time. Their “infant industry” has pros pered, beyond all precedent. - They are looking for sextuplets or some thing worse next time. Drowned in the Yadkin. The Salisbury Post says that Dr. John S. Bryan, a druggist of Speh- cer and son of -ex-Judge Henry Bryan, of New Berne, and Mr. Lit tleton, of Salisbury, son of Dr. J. W. Littleton, of Albemarle, were drowned in the rapids of the Yad kin, jnst below the Narrows and seven miles from Albemarle, at 4 o’clock Sunday afternoon and at lastacconntstheir bodies had not been recovered. Bryan and Littleton and others were swimming in the river when Bryan called for help. Littleton went to his aid and both were drowned.—Landmark. -. How Greensboro Proposes to Han dle liquor. Greensboro, like many another city in North Carolina, those al ready dryland that will be dry af ter the 1st of January, 1909, is wrestling with the regulation sale of “ booxe,” for medical purposes only. It is thought that 500 gal lons a year will supply Greensboro’s needs and it< is suggested by Dr. W. P. Beal, ehairman of the Guil ford County Medical Association committee who had that matter in charge, that license should be gran- fed to only one drug store, this license to be renewed''quarterly; that the chief of police should make a daily visit to the licensed store and inspect its prescription filesj that the names of all physicians writing prescriptions be given tp the press once a month, together with the number written by each,' and the total quantity of liquor prescribed. If, in the judgment of the chief of police, a physician is writing too many prescriptions, he shall be warned, and if he does not diminish the number he shall be prosecuted.—Ex. Over Thirty-Five Years. .- In 1872 there was a great deal of diarrhoea, dysentery and cholera in fantum. ' It was at this time that Chamberlain’s Colic, Cholera and Di- arrhoe Bemhdy was first brought into use.- It proved more successful than any other remedy or treatment, and has for thirty-five -years maintained that record. From a small beginning its sale and use has extended to every part of the United States and" to many foreign countries.

The Landmark, in making com ments on toe various happenings at the Democratic Convention, has the followiug to say: “Each Ride tried to make a lit tle larger showing than the other side and while the folks who don’t enjoy such things wanted it stop ped, for i.t was tiresome, they^ just had to sit still and take it out in expressing disgust. The thing, though, was infectious. Dignified gentlemen who do nothing unseem ly at home, cavorted like 10-year- old boys. Once after a Kitcbin demonstration Mr. T. B. -,Bailey, of Davie, a dignified gentleman but an enthusiastic Craig man, stood upon the platform and ges ticulated wildly for some one to bring him a Craig banner;- and when he got his hands on one be; waved it aloft in triumph and ap parently enjoyed the, tumult the Craig folks made. ,;I never thought I would be such a fool, ’ said the dignified and affable Col, lfeill Arcii McLean, of Robeson, alsoa Craig partisan, “ butl march ed and exerted myself - until the sweat poured from -me like a horse.” Tbeseare but instances.' There were many similar ones.” Yes, indeed, Bro. Clark, and a good many worse ones,. from what we saw and read. Many people made fools of themselves, while a few actually made asses of them- Thanks to Charlotte.* Between ballots for attorney-gen eral the following resolution was offered by Fred N. Tate, of High Point, and was unanimously car ried: * “I move that this convention extend a vote of thanks to the may or, the aldermen and other officials of the City of Charlotte, the citi zens, the clubB, the railways; the newspapers, and the various com mittees appointed to look after the comfort and welfare of the dele gates to this convention for kind nesses done and courtesies shown, and to the ladies for their interest and presence.” After the adoption of this reso lution some humorously inclined del igate solemnly moved; that the clubs be added to the list of the various things for which : the con vention had extended- its thanks, “ And I move to include the-doc tors and the drug stores, too,” put in a delegate just across the mid dle aisle.—Exchange. The boys would have been in bad shape indeed, had it nqt been for the doctors, drug stores and clubs, and they did- exactly, by includingthem in the resolution. The East’s To the Editor of The Observer. The nomination of W. W.

ThoBe who were not present at ECHOES FROMTHE FRONT. Even in the early stages it was ap- the Chicago convention when tfie^ parent that the convention would be cyclone ofapplause broke loose, for Theodore Boosevelt can never .fully comprehend the magnitude and in tensity of the occasion. Nothing approaching it was ever witnessed in this.or any other coiTntry. Tt was described by those who have attended many conventions and made a study of Buch things as be ing the longest, the loudest, the most impressive demonstration ev er known for any man at any con vention. Nobody could stop it. For filty-two minutes 14,000 or more Boosevelt admirers sent up a wild and wooly shout the like of which was never seen at any gath eriug auy -vhere. Arouud and a- round went the noise aud back again. Then a young wo an ap peared with a big Teddy bear ami tossed it at the Ieet of Mayor Bijs sTe. A dozen men grabbed the bear and it was thrown from place to place like a standard of victory. The bands in the gallery tried to break the noise, but they sounded about like a whisper in a locomo tive factory. The show started when Senator Lodge referred to TheodoreBoesevelt as “ being the leastabused and most popular man in the United States today.” That was the spark for the volcano. After that the scene witnessed was beyond the power of description. But after all there was nothing in all that mighty Jemonslration that should make a republican feel ashamed. It was a popular ex pression of approval for Republi canism and the feelings towards a republican president; , It shows that the people have faith in re publican principles It shows that they are pleased with the G. O. P. And it is a wonderful contrast with the'way the democratic party looks upon their chiefs as they round out their terms. Theodore Boose; velt will retire from the White House the most popular and hear tily esteemed man that has ever occupied the Executive Chair. And thru the influence of Roose velt one of the next greatest men before thu people-today has been chosen to fill the Presidential chair and on the third of next Novem ber William Howard Taft will step intn the White House for the next four years. Mr. Taft is a reform er of constructive mind and high udicial temperament. He is ’pro gressive, honest and sane and even the democrats will be delighted to IoiIow him to victory.—Yellow Jacket. afflicted with a soft of midsummer madness.

There never was any order. The chief value of the convention to, the state lies in the fact that if will serve the present generation as horrible example of how conven tions should not be conducted. ; If one wants to know the kind, of convention it really was, he can get very eood idea by a perusal of this laconic message, received Thurs day afternoon from the. seat of war: Craig loses four votes.

To kill bugs on watermelons, ■squashes, etc., take two and. one- half tablespoonfnls of coal oil to one quart of wood ashes and dust the stalks in the morning before the dew is all off.— K., Berwick, Pa, The squash bug never lays its eggs on the stem, unless by acci dent, but the under side of the leaves. The eggs are of a'dark hestnnt color, globular in form, and exist in clusters. They may be found by turning dp the leaves, when the eggs may be crushed. Another insect deposits its eggs on on stem; this is the borer. The larvae, as soon as hatched, eat into the stem, and are then difficult to dislodge. One of the -most effec tual remedies against enemies of the squash is a.sflution of saltpeter, which is prepared by dissolving a teaspoonful in a quart of water aud sprinkling it over the plant, though sawdust, saturated with turpen tine, is also need on the ground around each plant with success.

URGEST CIRCULATION OF ANY PAPEIT EVER PUBLISHED' IN DAVIE COUNTY. OUR TICKET. For Pretident, WM. H. TAFT of Ohio. Por Vice-President: JAMES S. SHERMAN, of New York. MOCKSVILLE, N. C„ JULY 9,1908. It is now pretty general talk and there would be no surprise if See retary Taft should carry North Carolina, Tennessee and Kentucky. —Exchange. The Democrats of Western Korth Darolina think they have been im posed upon by the Eastern Demo crats, and they mean to vote as they please this fall. Owing to the fact that the Be- publicans want to hold their con vention in a prohibition town, it will be necessary for us to meet in Greensboro instead of Oharlotte. J. J, Britt, Dr. Cyras Thomp son or A. A. Whitener would be safe mes to put at the head of the Republican State ticket. Either of these gentlemen would make a good governor. x That’s a queer report coming from Charlotte that plenty of cold drinks including beer and whiskey punches could be had, but that ice water was not to be had for love or money . Must have been a joke, still an old rounder who sobered up and quit months ago said he had to leave and come home to keep from getting drunk.—Greens boro Record. Rotation in office cute no figure with State Democracy. They grow gray down about Raleigh holding office and much of the Democratic State ticket is simply a re-nomina tion while the many new aspirants for these plums can continue to such their thumbs. The head of the ticket is himself a perpetual office holder and seeker and quite a contrast to Mr Craig, the Ashe ville aspirant, or the farmer and soldier, Hon. Ashley Horne.—Ex change. - * * * “Most dangerous man in the State.” Hisrecord in Congress unwor thy.7'Winston Daily Journal. This is Democratic authority and refers to Congressman W. W. Kitch- in, the Democratic candidate for Governor. The Charlotte Obser yer, Newbern Sun, Lexington Dis patch and other papers have ex pressed criticism about as severe. Thesejournalswill haveto eat a good deal’of “crow” or Mi*. Kitch- in.will have much trouble to con tend with in his own political fam ily. The Charlotte Observer- has already begun its “crow feast.’1 Pass around the dish.—Union Re publican. . CHANCES IN THE EIGHTH. We submit herewith what one of the leading Democratic dailies of Western North Carolina has to say concerning the Demooratic Con gressional nominee of this district, and of his chances for re election. Listen to the Asheville Citizen: “Congressman Dick Hack- ett, debonair egotist, the man who fought against the Appa- lachain bill and Locke Craig, is running for. CongreB3. He - will never see Washington a- 4*gain as a legislator, for his de feat is written now in burning letters!' Andweshallhotfeel deeply grieved thereat.” J t is now up to the News and Observer to have about seventeen different kinds of fits and try to read the-Asheville Citizen out of the party. But the. Citizen told a , truth when it gave utterance to the fore^oiag. Patterson Defeats Carmack. Tennessee democrats have been having a fight for governor that makes the -North Carolina, row look tame. They got to the shoot ing point over there and at least one man was shot down in an al tercation about the candidates. Ex-Senator Carmack was de feated Saturday in the primaries by Governor Patterson by- 9,000 votes. The fight is interesting be cause Carmack stood for state pro hibition and Patterson for local' option. Tennessee is dry in the large cities, and no doubt the wet places beat Carmack. Patterson says, however, if the democratic platform calls for state prohibition, which means only that about four wet cities be dried up, he will sign the bill. Carmack is one of the biggest men in the south. He was defeated by Bob Taylor and - his fiddle, for senator, but his prestige as a brilliant statesman Is nn- dimmed. Republican Activity. Charlotte Chronicle, (Dem.) Tha Republicans are confidently figuring on making great gains in North Carolina in the November election and are laying plans, to that end. We do not believe there is a chance for them to carry North Carolina, but that they will cut down the normal Democratics ma jority is a proposition it were fool ish to deny. There are two Demo cratic Congressmen whose re-elec- tion is admitted to be in doubt and the work of organizing the Repbli- can forces is in progress. It is based on plans to capture as much of the disaffected Democratic vote as possible. The organization of the Republican forces in the wes tern section will be particularly strong; Buncombe connty is to be organized tomorrow. As to the plans, an Asheville dispatch to The Industrial News says: “It is the intention of the dub to have Secretary Taft, the Republican can didate for the presidency, to Bpeak here during the campaign, or should he be unable to come, they will secure other very prominent Republicans to speak here. A well known Republican said to day that while the Republicans did not have as much money as. they did when they carried the county and this congressional dietrict in 1896, yet the local Conditions were far more favorable for victory than they were at that time.” In this activity on the part of the Republi cans, the Democrats may see, if they will- a hard and stubborn cam paign ahead of them.

Claude McGee,-aged 15, son of T. E.

No one was .present save the two. ' The gun went off accidentally and the lead tore a hole clear through the girl’s head, entering between the eyes. The coroner’s verdict was that she was killed by her brother who was pro nounced; guilty of carelessly and recklessly handling the firearm. The awful occurrance shocked. the city. Britt for Senate. J. J. Britt, one ot the ablest re publicans in the state, was nomin- aited for the state senate in Bun combe connty last week. Thomas S. Rollins was named for the house.

They do not seek political prefer ments, therefore, the greater reas ons they should be selected as our Standard bearers. Theyare too patriotic to refuse when their country calls.

Once in a while an honest man gets elected to office and the sur prise kills him. SECRETARY LUKE WRIGHT. President Roosevelt has appointed a southern Democrat to succeed Taft in the war department. General. Luke Wright, of Mem phis, who followed Mr, Taft at the Philippines, and was afterwards sent to Tokio to represent this govern ment. is the lucky man. The gener al belongs to that class of Americans who do things. He is popular with' the army and is well fitted to carry on the work laid down by the Re publican candidate for President. Theselection of General Wright will meet with approval. The only criticism, we venture to say, will come from the hide-bound partisans who regard it political treason for a public servant to choose subordinates from outside, the ranks. But the President long 'since demonstrated his utter indifference to protests from that quarter. It is enough for him to know that he has found a man who will fill the. bill and perform the duty required in a capable and pa triotic manner. The party wall is not so high in the President’s mind that he-cannot scale it at a single bound-, and find fragrant flowers on the other side.—Industrial News. The Difference. At*this time of the year the city man tied up in his/>ffice perspiring over books, longs for the quiet ot the country and the shade of a tree by the side of a still running stream where he-can cast his hook into the water and imagine he is happy whether he catches any fish or not. At the same time the young man in the country, wiping great drops of dirty perspiration from bis brow, lpngs to get away from the country and go to the city, where he thinks he will find enjoyment working in a big, cool warehouse or summing up figures in a big book under an electrician. Hejhinks that farm life is the hardest in the world, and if he eould only get away he would be happy. It is all in the point of view. Contentment and happiness, perhaps, are at last on ly to be found in the dictionary. He who would be. content must love his work, take the world as it comes, work hard for a period, take a vacation when necessary and lay up for a rainy day.—Our Home. Wading Contests. Out west one of the favorite a musements of the hot season is wading con eats by girls and mar ried woman. Itwould hardly be allowed east of the Appalachians, but the west doesn’t seem- to mind it, and doubtless has large .con tempt for the over-modest east on this and other scores. The yomen wade out into lakes. The one who can wade furthest without getting her lingerie wet is awarded the prize. Naturally the contests draw hordes of men, and as the judgdi of the cutest are in a boat off the shore, and have a vantage p iint for sight seeing, there is merry war over who shall be jud ges. Last week there was a con test at Clear Lake, near Desmoines, and 18 waders gathered their skirts and walked in One tall girl went 75 feet into the lake, and got the prize.

Davis sustained property loss and came near being drowned himself Friday July 3rd, in a swollen stream in Alexander county, says the Land mark. Mr Davis was bonding some brandy distilleries. He was accompanied by Mr. J,A . Parker, of Statesville. About noon Friday they came to a small creek hear where it empties into Little river, about eight or ten miles from Hickr orp. “ When they reached the stream Mr. Parker carried Mr. Davis’ grip across the foot-log. A boy was sent across the stream on a mule and it appeared that the stream was safe. Mr. Davis had crossed it about an hour before,- The stream rose very rapidly and wheu Mr. Davis drove in the swift current turned the buggy over and washed buggy and horse down Stream. Mr. Davis jumped out and made for the bank and was pulled out by Mr, Parker. The bank was so steep that if Mr. Par ker hadn’t been there Mr. Davis would have been helpless to get out himself and -would have been washed into Little river, where esr cape from drowning and bejng bat tered on the rocks would have been improbable. After Mr. Davis was rescued they turned their'attention to the horse. They got him to the bank once but he could not get out. He became detached from the buggy after the horse and buggy had drifted nearly a mile down Little river, but the current was so swift and the stream so rugged that he had no chance. He was finally washed into the Catawba river, over.a mile from where he started, and was taken out on the opposite side of the rivc-r. The buggy was headed towards the ocean when last seen. The horse was taken to a home in Alexander county. It is so badly used up that Mr.. Davis does not expect it to recover. He estimates his damage, including the loss of the horse, at $240. Vacation Fad. Thousands of city people are now counting the hours when they can leave for some seaport, springs, river or mountain for an outing, where they can fight mosquitoes and bugs for a few days, and per haps get drowned. It is a great thing and many of our ancestors Jived and died not knowing what a vacation or an outing meant.— Shelby Aurora. Another Stingy Man. Mis. Henry Eckland, of New York, wants a divorce from her husband and among other 'griev ances is his exceptional stinginess. One instance she recites and that is her husband made their son take long steps to save his shoes.

Because the late Democratic con vention which nominated -Mr. Kitchin, had whiskey ‘and beer shipped into Charlotte by the car loads, is no reason why the Be- publicans should follow their ex ample, Eeally it’s a good reason why we should^ not do so. The Democratic party in the- present campaign will attempt to clai m all the goodness, temperance, etc.. yet its an admitted SFact that their con vention at Charlotte was a bacchan alian revel, and it seems that some of our Democratic friends desire us to meet at Charlotte and repeat their disgraceful conduct. Democ racy started in several years ago to rope in all the so-called moral ele ments of the state by its profuse declaration!), but its performances show plainly that deception was intended and practiced. STof we want Charlotte to treat us nicely, and if the city is infested with snakes, we want the city authori ties. to proceed a t once to extermi nate them tyefore Aujgust 26th. We hope the city authorities will coun tenance no effort or encourage any , person or persons In ax attempt- to fill the city with, whiskey during our stay in the Queen City. - Give us plenty of ice. water and good rations and we will be satisfied. Tak notice, Brother Caldwell, and net accordingly. AN APPEAL TO OUR READERS. We dislike very much to have to urgetrar subscribers to come to our assistance, but such things cannot always beavoided. For the past few months oar cash receipts have fell considerably behind—the sub scription receipts have not been sufficient to actaally pay for the blank paper The Becord is printed on, and some of our advertisers have cut their ads (Tut, which has made it hard on us at this dull season, Duringthecampaign sea son, we do not look for much help from the opposition party, and if our own people do not stand by us, we are left to stand alone. There fore, we earnestly request every Eepublican whose subscription has expired to renew if possible. . And we would esteem it a personal fa vor if-every friend of The ' Eecord in Davie county would try to get. ub at least one new subscriber this month. W earetryingtogiveyoh a good paper, and are fighting for the principles of our party, and for the betterment of our people and our county. Ourexpenses are heavy, but if you will standby us, we will give you a better paper during this campaign that ever be fore. When you come to town, call around and renew your sub scription and give us a word of en couragement. We need both, and would appreciate them. Bryan Aod Xern The Nominees* DenveftyCol., July 10.—The De mocratic national convention con cluded its labors late Jh is after noon by the nomination of John Worth Kern, of Indiana, for Yice President, completing the ticket on which William J. Bryan was made the nominee for President during the early hours of this morning. The nomination of Kern was made by acclamation amid the resound ing cheers of delegates and specta tors. 27o ballot was necessary as the tide of sentiment had set" irre sistibly toward the Iiidiana states man, State after State registering their votes in his favor,and all oth er candidates withdrawing before the universal demand for his nom ination. We came near forgetting to men tion the fact that B, Bryan was nominated on first ballot, and that the Charlotte Observer is about to swallow the ticket. . Items From Rpnte One.

From the published report of the receipts and disbursements for the past year for the town of Mocks ville, over -thirteen hundred dol lars have been spent. The pub lished report does not show for what all this money has been spent, but the taxpayers certainly have a right to know, where it is going, for it is evident that we are .get ting but little for our money so far as one can see. The work done on our streets and sidewalks is not properly looked after and the re sult is that what is done is soon'to do over by reason of neglect, etc. No judgment is shown, no regard for the permanency of the work done, and where the sidewalks have been graveled, and the ditch es not properly: kept open it is soon washed away. What are we pay ing a policeman for, anywayl l8it to sit around in the shade while the hands employed on the streets and no one Beeing whether they work, or whether the work they do is properly done? Most of the tax payers of Mocksville are poor men and are working hard to earn a living and pay their taxes and they are entitled to have their money spent for the-good of the town. These things should be looked af ter by the street committee if there isstfch, aud if the policeman has not the time or inclination to see after this street work, some one should be paid to doit.

By TheRea-Headed Man. Did any of you Hornet readers ever attend a hugging match? We don’t mean one of these hugging sociables which are gotten up for the benefit of some charitable in- stitation where you can hug the girls, married ladies and old maids at so much-per hug or per minute as the .case may be, but we have reference to the high “sassiety” balls or dances, where a man hugs without money and without price. Where a married man hugs some other man’s wife to the tune Of some hot piece of piano music. We have seen such things on a few occasions, but if it ever had a ten dency to make us a better man we did not find.it out, Ifjt is wrong to hug a woman without music, it is wrong to hug one with music. Dancing may be all right, but one hardly ever hears of a consecrated Christian woman getting out on the floor and letting some man get her form squeezed up in a tight em brace and go cantering around thq room like two yearlings. Some people are under the impression that to be a lady or gentleman one has to engage in all such things aa waltzes, card playing, cross-legged horseback riding, etc. AU these things may be harmless and in good taste with the bon-ton “sas siety” crowd, but they don’t seem so to us. The dance hall has caus ed the downfall of more young la dies than any other evil in the universe, and we hope the day may not be far distant when a§ch ■ things will be looked down upon by all the good people ol this land. We ma.y possibly be talking to some of our readers who believe \ . that dancing is all right, and if so, we hope this article will not of fend them, bnt that they will stop and think for a moment of the sin and shame, and tears of anguish that have been wfung from the fathers and mothers of this land on account of the dancing halls. One of our subscribers who has the privilege of drawing his breath in the benighted city of Salisbury, informed us one day last week that The Hornet was so much in de mand at his house that he didn’t get to read it—that his bench-leg ged dog had gone to eating the in sect as soon as it got there. We will bet our last pair of SOS that the purp has got a bad case of in digestion, and being a sensible lit tle purp, he eats The Horpet be cause it resembles cascarets—it works while you Bleep. Girls, if you want to keep your sweetheart, don’t let him hug you too much; if he gets tired of' the pleasure he is likely-to hug anoth er girl the next night just for a change. The final hug should not come later than 10 o’lock. NERVOUSNESS. By properly toning and feeding the nerves with pure blood which is done by using P. P.

SOM E THINGS THAT WILL KEEP YOU GRINNING FOR A WEEK. A HUGGING MATCH. By The Red-Headed Man. D idanyofyon Hornet readers ever attend a hugging match! We don’t mean one of these hugging sociable3 which are gotten up for the benefit of some charitable in- stitationwhereyou can hug the girls, married ladies and old maid.i at bo much per hug or per minute as the case may be, but we have reference to the high “sassiety” balls or dances, where a man hugs without money and without price. Where a married man hugs some other man’s wife to the .tune of some hot piece of piano music. We have seen such things on a few occasions, but if it ever had a ten dency to make us a better man we did not find it out. If it is wrong to hng a woman without music, it is wrong to hug one with music Dancing may be all right, but one hardly ever hears of a consecrated ehristian woman getting out on the floor and letting some man get her form squeezed up in a tight em brace and go cantering around the room like two yearlings. Some people are under the impression that to be a lady or gentleman one has to engage in ail such things aa waltzes, card playing, cross-legged horseback riding, etc, AU these things may be harmless and in good taste with the bon-ton ‘‘sas- siety” crowd, but they don’t, seem so to us. The dance hall has caus ed the downfall of more young la dies than any other evil in the ■universe, and we hope the day may not be far distant when qpch things will be looked down upon by all the good people ol this land. We may possibly be talking to some of onr readers who believe that dancing is all right, and if so, ■ we hope this article will not of fend them, but that they will stop and think for a moment of the sin and shame, and tears of anguish that have been wrung from the fathers and mothers of this land on account of the dancing halls. One of our subscribers Who has the privilege of drawing his breath in the benighted city of Salisbury, informed ns one day last week that The Hornet was 90 much in de mand at his house that he didn’t get to read it—that his bench-leg ged dog had gone to eating the in sect as soon as it got there. We will bet our last pair of sox that the purp has got a bad case 0i in digestion, and being a sensible lit tle purp, he eats The Hornet be cause it resembles cascareta—it works while you sleep. Girls, if you want to keep your sweetheart, don’t let him hug you too much; if he gets tired of the pleasure he is likely to hug anoth er girl the next night just for a change. The final hug should not come later than 10 o’lock. NERVOUSNESS. By properly toning and feeding the nerves with pure blood which is done'by using P. P.

The plan of organization requires that delegatesand alternates to all State conventions shall be elected by duly constituted county con ventions, called on at least fifteen days notice of the!' time and place of such conventions* Representa tions in county conventions shall consist of one delegate for every twenty-five Republicau votes or fractional part thereof cast in the precinct at the previous election for the Republican candidate for Governor, and in all other con ventions, one delegate and one al ternate are apportioned to every one hundred votes, or fractional part thereof, cast in the previous election for the Republican candi date for Governor.

He is the fellow that let Spencer Blackbnrn “lick” • him in the Eighth in 1904. Kitchin and Craig, in their cam paign over the State for the nomi nation, each tried to convince the people that the other was not fit for governor. The people may de cide at the polls in November that both ,of them were right, and we feel confident that they will decide to elect some one else if the Iter publicans will nominate a better man for governor than Kitchin aud the material for Such a nomi nation is not scarce. - ' ■ ' It is claimed, by the leaders of- the democratic party that they are! the friends of the Confederate sol - dier.

In the midst of a campaign reeking with slander, falsehood, hypocracy and blood-curdling charges that great monsters are about to eat him si- live, with a dozen years of abso lute emptiness behind him in con gress, this ripsnorting demagogue turns upon a newspaper that punc tured his gas-bag with facts,,and like the ASS HE IS, brays “ You are a liar,” in the absence of other counter-argument—“he will ap peal to the worst, to the ignorant, to the prejudiced, to the passions, to the prohibitionist and to the an ti-proliil»itionist wirh equal ease; will array class against class, labor, against capital, man against man, democrat against democrat, until North Carolina will sink in the es teem of other states to a level she has never sounded' before under democratic rule.

TAFT of Ohio. For Vice-President: JAMES S. SHERMAN, of New York. MOCKSVILLE, N. C., JULY 23, 1908. with at the Democratic convention in Charlotte, and who prophesied over the stieets of said city that LockeCraig would be the next governor. If he is a prophet, he must be one of those false ones we read of in Holy Writ. Mr. Bryan will never occupy a seat in the White House. It doesn’t take a prophet to see that. And if the Jonrnal editor wonld be perfectly candid he wonld have to admit that Bryan stands no more chance of becoming president of the Uni ted States than does J. 0. Sell, the learned editor of The Journal and the Democratic prophet of Davie county. Bryan must decrease, while Taft will increase. There was more wind in the De mocratic convention at Denver, than there will be democratic votes this fall.________. Those who are thinking of asking the people for their votes this fall, wonld'do well to send in their an- nonncements early. If Democrats are to be read out ot the party for not supporting Mr. Bryan this tall the indications are that there will be a powerful scat tering of the faithful and a greatly diminished vote when the Demo- cratic ballots are counted in No vember.—Union Depublican. Itisacertainfactthat Brady G. Williams, of Advance, has the hear ty approval of the people of that section of the county for Treasurer, or he would not make application for the place, and while there is no kick about the present Treasurer ex cept as to the length of time he has held th% office. And as that section of the county seldom asks any con sideration in the elections, ‘we be lieve it would be a credit to the par ty for the balance of the county to offer no opposition to his nomination. VOTE ASYOU CUSS. You have heard the saying, “ vote as you pray.” Itis said if you don’t, you are a liar and. a hypocrite. We desire to ask .if the Democrats are going to vote as they cuss? Are they going Jto vote for men whom they cussed as liars, scoundrels and anarchists!—Times- Mercury. Yes, that is exactly what they are going to do. Even Hello Back sliding Yarner is going to vote for that ass Kitchin, whom he eussed out before that prohibition crowd (!) met in Charlotte. VERY KIND INDEED. Says The Davie Record, Repub lican: “We want Charlotte to treat us nicely, and il the city is in fested with snakes, we want the city authorities to proceed at once to exterminate them before August 26th. We hope the city authorities will coun tenance no effort or encourage anv person or persons in an at tempt to fill the city with whiskey during our stay in the Queen City. Give us plenty of ice water and good rations and we will be satisfied.” We feelanthoiized to say that nobody will be thrown down and drenched.—Charlotte Observer. The Editor of The Record wants to thank Bro. Caldwell for this kindly consideration to be shown the Republicans on Aug. 26th. We don’t know whether the same consideration was sllown the De mocrats or not, but we are reliably informed that some of them got drenched and were down. Even old Davie suffered in her good , name, so we are informed. We know you will treat us nicely, but we warn you not to lead us into temptation, but rather deliver us from the evils of a prohibition city. COOLEEMEE HEARD FROM. In speaking of W. J. Bryan, the Cooleemee Journal has this to say: I 'i Novemberhe will beelec- teu and the 4th day of March, 1909 he will'take his seat in the White Honse as the great est president of Qie greatest nation on the face of the earth. The editor of the Jonrnal is not . a prophet, nor is"he the son‘ of a! prophet. If we mistake not, he is one of the fellows whom we met up OUR TURN NEXT. About six years ago this Sena torial district was re-arranged and the counties of Wilkes, Yadkin and Davie were made into what is now the 29th Seiiatorial district. In the past Bix years Yadkin coun ty has twice named the Senator and Wilkes county has once furn ished the Senator to represent this district. As the time draws near for the Senatorial convention, and realizing that it is Davie county’s turn next, we wish to mention the name of a man whom we believe wonld represent this district with honor to himself and to his party a man who has the best interests of his party at heart—a man whom the thought of office will not kill, and a man who is well known and who could poll a larger vote than any other man we can nominate. We have reference to A. T. Grant, Jr., who has represented his coun ty creditably in the legislatnre and has made an euviable record in the legislative halls that any man could well be prond of. -Let's nom inate A. T. Grant, Jr., a man. who will always be fonnd fighting for Republican principles. UNION REPUBLICAN HOT SHOT Theb’hoys are crowding' around the “crow feast/’ Let the band play on.

Hearst on Bryan. “Fortbe third time,” says the latter’s NewYorkAmerican, “ Wil liam J. Bryan has laeen nominated by the Democratic party— or, rath er, by that fragmen t of former ef ficiency which is called the Demo cratic party. We have lost confi dence in the Democratic party, as millions of other Democrats= have done. We cannot see in his nomi nation any hope. We are bound to add, with regret, that we have lost confidence also in William J. Bryan, who, by well-manipulated boss-ship, has compelled this nom ination.”—Exchange. No Democradc Party. “There is na Democratic party and William J. Bryan iB its lead er,” Bagely observed Jndge Lam bert Tree, A more precise state ment of the situation could not be fomnlated. The Democratsofthe country will now resume their ac customed occupation of electing a Republican President, this time by the largest majority known since Grant ran away from Greely-. It isjust as well. Nobody nomina ted against Bryan’s wishes could have hoped to poll as - many votes as Bryan himself" will get;—OoL George Harvey, Editor. Harper’s Weekly.

But one thing almost breaks my heart And my nervous system shocks, It’s the everlasting pennies That I’m fishing from the box. I carry stamps and envelopes, And postal cards and such; And I would like to sell a few, 'Twould please me very much; But a man can’t sell unless you buy, • No matter how he talks. So I have to keep on diving After pennies in the box. It’s all right in the springtime,’ Or when summer breezes blow; But a different proposition’, When it’s thirty-two below, When all your fingers and toes Are frozen hard as rocks It is most anything but funny Scratching pennies from the box. Wien the “roll is called up yonder,” And we shall gather their. They wouldn’t let a mail man in, - If they knew he’d learned to swear.

It doesn’t take monoy to run a newspaper. It can run without money. It is not a business ven ture. It is a charitable institution a begging concern, a highway rob ber. A newspaper is a child of the air, a creature of a dream. It can go on and on, and any other concern would be in the hands of a receiver and wound up with.cob- webs in the windows. It takes wind to run a newspaper; it takes gall to run a newspaper; it takes a scintillating acrobatic imagination and a half dozen white shirts and a railroad pass to run a newspa per. But who ever needed money to conduct a newspaper? Kind words are the medium of exchange that does the business for the edi tor—kind words and church soci able tickets! When you see- an editor with money, watch him. He’ll be paying his bills and dis gracing his profession. Never give money to an editor. Make him trade it out. Money is a corrupt ing thing. The editor knows it; what he wants is your heartfelt thanks. Then he can thank his printers and they cau thank their grocers! Take yourjobwork to another job office, and then come and ask for free church notices. Get your lodge letter-heads and stationery printed out of town, and then flood the editor with beautiful thoughts in resolutions of respect and cards of thanks. But money—scorn the filthy thing. Don’t let the pure, innocent editor know anything a- bout It. Keep that for sordid tradespeople who charge for their wares. The editor gives his boun ty away. The Lord loveth a cheer ful giver! He’ll take care of .the editor. He will get out the paper somehow; and stand up lor -the town and whoop it up for you when you run for office; and lie about your pigeon-toed daughter’s tacky wedding and blow about your big-footed sons when they, get a $4 a week job, and weep over your shriveled soul when it is re leased from its miserable hulk, and smile at your giddy wife’s sec ond marriage. Don’t worry about the editor—he’ll get on. The Lbrd knows how—but somehow.. In The Spring. In the spring the groaning hus band eats his victuals in the barn, for his. wife must den the mansion and she doesn’t care a darn; and the yard is full of carpets.and trees are full of sheets, and he has to live on sauerkraut, cistern water and sliced beets. And at night the patient husband has to sleep upon the floor, and he feels so plum disgusted that he swears life is a bore. Wheu the blamed old cleaning’s over, then the wife is taken ill, and it keeps the husband busted buying dope and drngs and pills; and the mansion is no clean er than it was when she began, bnt she’d Slay him if he said so—and he is a prudent man.—Ex.

Charlotte Still Wet. It’s a cold day when the folks who find a little sowpaw necessary for the stomach’s sake are entirely left. The drug store liquor sa in Charlotte became so notorious that the sale of liquor by druggists was suppressed entirely by munici pal regulation, the act taking' ef fect on the 1st, But there is s drng store in the suburbs of Char lotte; just outside the town limits, which is not amenable to munici pal regulation. This drng store will go on selling booze, others will probably be established on the outskirts of Charlotte, and they’ll do a land-office business. Being free from municipal authority they can be more lax in observing the law, if they choose, than those sub ject to municipal regulations1.

An Illinois boy was asked to write an essay on Masonry, and here is what he wrote: “ King Solomon was a man who lived so many years in the conn try that he was the whole push. He was an aw fnl wise man, anti one day two women came to him, each holding to the leg of a baby and nearly puiling it in two, and both claiming it. And King Solo mon wasn’t- feeling right good, and he said: ‘Why couldn’t the brat have been twins anck stop this bother?’ And then he called foi his machete and was going to Weylerize the poor innocent little baby and give each woman a piece of it when the real mother of the babe said: ‘Stop, Solomon, stay thy band. Let the old-hag have it. If I can’t have a whole baby, I won’t have any.’ Then Solomon told her to take the baby and go home and wash its face for he knew it was hers. He told the other woman to go chase herself. King Solomon built Solomon’s tem ple and was the father of Masons. He had 700'wives and 300 lady friends, and that’s why there are so many Masons in the world. My papa says King Solomon’s was a warm number, andT think he was hot stuff myself. That is all I know about King Solomon.—Ex. The Remedy That Does. “Dr. King’s New Discovery is the remedy that does the healing others promise but fail to perform.” • says Mrs. E. R.

Better Alive. A Washington man tells of a dinner he once had at a farm house in Virginia, on which occasion the pieee'de resistance was a particu larly tough chicken, says Harper’s Weekly. ' Among others at the table were the farmer’s two young sons. These as well as the Washingtonian, were struggling unsuccessfully to make some impression on their respec tive portions of the aged fowl, when the youugest boy turned to his companion and observed sotto voice: “Tom, somehow I kinder wish old Dick hadn’t a died; don’t you?” Love is made in the same old way, but some of the Mocksville boys think they have hit upon an important improvement.

Yes, that is what I mean do we care for tb§ Confederate soldier! Do we love the Confeder ate soldier! We love to flaunt him in the eyes of the world. We love to plume ourselves on his prowess. We love in imagination to climb with him the slopes of Gettysburg. We love to stand at bay w ith. him in the trenches at Petersburg. We love to stagger with him to the sad tinale oi the Confederacy at/Appo mattox. We love to shine by the reflected light of the splendor , of his deeds. In short, we love our selves. But do w e lave him! Let’s see. Let’s stop and look squarely at the matter and at ourselves, if we can and are not afraid to. At the State conventioa of 1904 there weie two men prominently before it for the place of Governor, the highest office in the gift of North Carolina. One was a Con federate soldier, a Confederate of fleer—a man who bad served the State gallantly, valiantly -in her desperate struggle for independ ence and for the establishment of the very essence of - Democratic principles, of home rule as against the liberty-engulfing centralism and imperialism of the day. The other was a man too young to have served in the war. He was a wor thy and au able man but not a whit more so than the veteran of the lost cause. No one doubted that the veteran would make a good Governor, every whit as good as the other gentleman. It was in our power to Compensate this vet eran for what He had ,done and suffered and to compensate him Tn a way that of all others would have brought the greatest flood of joy to his patriotic heart, AU it would have cost as a people to do this was the breath to pronounce an extra syllable, two syUablesTtt* stead, of one, in naming the man for Governor—to say: Stedman in stead of Qlenn,, Which did we Bay! . Come down to the convention of this year I Three Vetetans--Horne, Ashe and Robei fe, men Who had served the Statei valiantly. in war and ably in J peace—sought the suffrage of their fellow citizea. Fhese'gentlemen besides their war records had certainly as 'm uchi^d their credit iii civil service as their opponent had. In aBiiityvin worth, in fitness for the office they sought and in services to the State in a civil capacita they were the ■ peers of the gentlemen who opposed them.- No one will dispute that. Fo one can doubt that^ if the hand of oblivion was laid on; their, .long, and honorable "war-- record, they would have been as worthy' of of-; fice as the other men. • . . Whaf'was'their fate! Did their Confederate record turn what should have been the evenly bal anced scaies in their favor!' No, there is. more ^eigbk in the • p. >11- tician’8. little finger ; Than • '-there Would be in the whole bOdjf of even u Hoke of.a Lee.; ... -■ -.

Timy are able and , upright UDd wilbservc the- State;; fiilly as ^ell as the three veterans bn whom' Forth Carolina turned her back at Charlotte, butno, abler, no. more upright,,no-fitter than they are.-*; I am not deprecating the/ nomi- netion of the successful gentleman. I am only calling attention to the fact that our deeds don’t- square with our words. If we really care fot the Confederate soldier, let’s show it in our deeds. HeTfiabbet- ter spare our words now tfidKhe is getting old,- -Better bread today than a stone.tomorrow. If we have an office to. fill" and two men offer for it, one a Confed erate veteran, and- thev veteran is 1D all respects as competent and as ^eU qualified to fill it as the other man, let’s do one of two things. Let’s either give it to him or stop prating about how well we love him and how anxious we are to show nim that we do. In a word, let’s have done with cant. Let’s act np a little nearer our talk or talk down a little nearer our acts. O . W . B lackntAll Kittrell,' July 18th. The above article shows that there are a few honest enough to speak out on the question of the treatment of the old Confederate soldier by the Democratic party Sn this State. It has been too appar ent for a long while that the Demo cratic politicians were making a football of the old soldiers, a step ping stone as it were, to elevate designing politicians to office. One of the-favorite means used Io rope in-the old soldiers, are reunions and basket picnics. The old sol diers are invited out to a basket picnic, and his good w|fe is ex pected to cook up a big basket of good things to feed not only the old soldier, but the big crowd of Camp followers and politieia. s who are always, on hand a t' these pic nics, and can be counted on at the conventions to vote as the bosses dictate, and nSOst in general against the old soldier. It is not necessary to mention many of the fallen he roes to illustrate. Down went the gallant Carr before the politician Simmons; Cy Watson, the brave, met his Waterloo at the hands of Lee S. Overman; the chivalric Stedman fell before the onslought of the demagogic Glenn, and the intrepid Horne was blown into re tirement by the cooking depart ment (Kitchin), who for twelve years has fared. Bumptiously and done nothing for the people worth' mentioning.. Old soldiers, the last tattoo is sounding your death knell, ingratitude has been your reward at the hands of Democracy, ConeWOlVoteForTafL *'Bryan Will be one of the worst defeated men thai ever ran for the presidency, in my opinion,” These are the words of S. N. Cone, a well known cotton broker and business man of this city, in a conversation to several listeners, including a News man. ‘‘I have always been a Demo crat,” said Mr. Cone, ‘-and con sider myself a Democrat now, but f am not a Bryan democrat. Bry- aumm is net Democracy. It is a mixture of Populism and Social ism, a sort of hybrid product and unworthy of the confidence of the people. Bryan-was not really wanted by the people of his party. He'forced himself on them and the party’s leaders were too weak to throw him off. Cleveland was a true Democrat and advocated Jef fersonian principles in which I be lieve Brvan advocates nothing of the sort.” JHr. Cone said further that of course Mr. Bryan would like to be elected to the presidency, if such a thing was possible, but. he likes to run for the advertising he gets out of it. He said that Bryan had made lots of-money speaking about oyer the country. He referred to his trip here last year and of hi- trip to Raleigh, Charlotte and Fay etteville. At each piace5 he re ceived "a good sized check for mak ing a speech which was mainly in his own interest. When asked what effect Bryan’s election would have on the conn try, if Buch a thing should come to p a s s , Mr. Cone said that it would becxtremety disastrous. He said if he believed such a thing would happen he would sell stocks largely because he knows there would be a tremendous slump in them. He said that Bryan’s recent statement that the President of the country could not do much harm, or words to that effect, is a very poor argument in favor of Bryan’s election. He said that what the people want is not only a P re s id e n t who will do no harm, but one who will do the country some good. Success in business depends main Iy on confidence and the business interests of this country have no confidence in Bryan and will not support him. _ When asked how Mr. Taft stands with the business men of New York, Mr. Cone said that they have a high regard for him and will give him their support. He said that Taft is well qualified for the place and will make good. Charges tbatTaft will be controlled by somebody else is nonsense. He is not that kind of a man. Mr. Cone said that'another reas on why Bryan will be defeated & that present conditions are unla; vorable to Bryan’s kind of politics. When farmers are getting -eleven cents a pound .for cotton, seventy- five cents a bushel for corn and ninety cents for wheat, it will. be hard for Mr. Bryan to convince Diiem that they are very much op pressed Besides there is too much, money in the savings banks and too much business going on in the country foi calamity howling to meet with much success. Mr. Cone says that Bryan’s de feat is accepted in New York as practically assured, the betting now being 5 to I against him.— Daily Industrial News.

Mb. Editor:—In last week’s is sue of The !Record, I read with in-, torest the announcement Of Brady G. Williams for County Treasurer. Mr. Williams is to be commended for submitting his case to the peo ple, the voters, and if he be the choice of the majority, well and good. The office-holder is the ser vant of the people and is alone de pendent upon them for office. Of fices aae created by the people, not for certain individuals, but for the good and service , of the people, therefore the people are acutely interested . in who theto officers shonld be. Mr; Etchison has been our Treasurer for six years, and the time he has been in office is no arr gument for or against him. The question is, how has he filled - the office, and do the people want him longer! My- Etchison has made the county a splendid officer, and no one can say a word against him as an officer or man, and I presume (without; knowing) that he will ask for a renomination, and if the people want him, they, the peo ple. have a perfect right to say so, and we are Sure Mr. Etchison and Mr. Williams are perfectly willing to abide ,the will of the people in convention assembled. We have a limited acquaintance with Mr. Williams, and are of the opinion that he. is a deserving young man, and would, if nominated, fill the office acceptably. The various county offices are to be filled this year, with the exception of Clerk, and the only and proper way is for the Bepublican voters to go out to their primaries \ and -vote for whoever they desire to fill these offices, and every man who desires an office should speak out, before the primaries, and let the people know who wants the various of fices, and.iu this way get the sen timent of the majority. Let us urge every Republican to attend the township primaries, and also the county convention, and let’s not lose sight of the fact that the officers are the servants of the peo ple; A Republican.

Those who are tired of hearing “San Antonio” and wish to escape it, might go to church. It is never heard there.

Billious Jungle Bryan has just accepted $500 from the talking ma chine trust or combine, a thing he said he would not do. Billions never lets a dollar go by. While hundreds of Democrats and a number of newspapers in this State opposed Mr, Bryan, as well as the nomination of Mr. Kitchin1 it would seem that the demand for “crow meat” will cre ate another trust for State Democ racy to “bust.”—Ex. nouncement. ' It will cost you on ly a small amount to let the people know that you want.their support. There are five offices to be filled this fall, viz: Senator, !Represen tative, Sheriff, Register and Treas urer. Those who mean to make the race for either of these places, should send in their announcements early, so that the people may have time to discuss the various candi dates and make up their minds as to which one of the men they want to fill the offices. AnENTIONU REPUBLICANS I! Let every Republican in the county who can possibly do so, come out to Mocksville Monday, Aug. 3rd, at which time a T aft1WrightRievesthisweek, club will be organized. The tem porary secretary will take the names of all who wish to join the club at any time. We should send a good delegation to Charlotte Aug. 26th to participate in the parade. Don’t forget the date, Monday, Aug. 3rd. Meeting will be held in the court house. C, F rank Stroud, Temporary Chairman. The Democrats of Dnion county are like all other Democrats with the exception of not wanting pie. The Dnion county boys want it/ and want it bad. Thirty' of them have announcements running in Our Home, begging the dear peo ple for the different county offices. REPUDIATES BRYAN. Congressman E. W. Leake, of Kew Jersey, elected two years ago, a Democrat—writes Mr. Taft that he will vote for him and make speeches in behalf of the Republi can ticket. Hon. Iredell Meares, a prominent Democratic lawyer of Wilmington, has declared for Mr. Taft, and in a forceful letter pub lished in last week’s Charlotte Ob-. server tells why he is going to vote the Republican ticket. The South will never take its rightful place in the councils of the nation, until; it cuts loose from the Bourbon, in tolerant Democracy. It has pre judiced and dwarfed our people and injured our section. If you do not receive a paper next week, it means that your sub scription is more than a year be hind, and that we haven’t got the stamps to mail them to you. The postoffice department strictly for bids us sending our paper to any subscriber who is more than a year behind. Wewould appreciate it very much if you would renew. A cross-mark opposite your name this week means that you are al most a year behind, and that we want you to renew at once. The Republicans of Mocksvilfe and Davie county have not given The Record the support which il is entitled to. No party can hope lor much success in a county where they have no paper. The Record has been waging war on the enemy • in this county, state and nation for more than nine years, much ol that time the editor having to take the cash out of his own pocket to keep it going. Now, this is not right. The Republicans of Davie county . should rally to its support and help to put it in the home of every Republican in the county. With the low subscription price of fifty cents a year, there is not a man in Davie county but who' could pay for it without missing the amount. We want a live agent in every sec tion of Davie county who has the success of the party at heart, and who is not afraid to ask his friends to subscribe for their county pa per. We are going to make The Record hot during this campaign, and we want 500 new subscribers. W e would like to hear from at least twenty-five men in different sec. tions of the county who will can vass dmong their friends and neighbors for-The Record. We do not mean for you to do this work * for nothing. Write us at once for full particulars. ATTENTION, CANDIDATES!

HE FORBEARS. “The chairmanship of the national committee will not go to a Southern inhu because of the attitude of the Southern ers toward the negro,” This news in an~Associated Press dispatch of yesterday from Mr. Bryan’s home at Lincoln would make us wonder, if we were capable of wonder at anything political, “Although Mr. Bry an thinks highly of Mr. Ollie James, of Kentucky, and his name was prominently men tioned for this place,” so the dispatch runs on, “the posit- „ ion taken by Mr. James some time ago in favoring the dis franchisement of the negro made his appointment out of the question.” We forbear comment. — Charlotte Obser ver, 22nd. W earenotsnrprised atthe last three words in the editorial com ment of the Observer. Brother Joe realizes that his party has been yelling nigger at Republicans for years, and now they are making a bid for the negro voce to elect Mr. Bryan. Truly it’s enough to dis gust the pure in heart to see their party turn down a good Southern er on account of the hostility of the negro. We predicted ,years ago when the Democrats were yell ing “nigger” at Republicans and passiLg the disfranchising amend ments, that in the near future the Democratic party would make a bid for the negro vote, and here they are actually with the sheep on their back. Tom Taggart, the gambling den proprietor and sa- loonlst is to step down, and a man who can carrot the negro vote is to succeed him. What changes times do make, and great is the fall of White Supremacy Democracy. Those Thieving Democrats. 0. c.

Godby’s for Mrs. MargaretGaither. Thedinner was fine, and all seemed'to enjoy it. Mrs. Gaither has seen 73 birthdays. I think there might be an improve ment in birthday dinners. We gen erally go with our baskets and eat the rations and have a good time, never thinking how soon these birthdays will cease. Too often not a prayer made or a verse read or a hymn sung, or a word of cheer to the old people. I do think it would bie so much nicer to have some re ligious services at these dinners. They are generally a tribute of re spect to the aged who must soon step off into eternity. It seems to me that an appropriate scripture, a prayer and a short talk -to the old woUld always be acceptable to them. I hope we will improve the -birthday dinners in this way. A few days before this the friends Stfiye Mr. Daniel Safriet a dinner. I have not heard from that. Guess they had a nice time. ~ Ihe protracted meeting will begin the first Sunday in August at Soci ety church. We hope to have a good meeting. Hope to have the editor, and Editor Click, of. Hickory, with us again. I think we can give them a few spuare meals, as Editor Stroud talks like he never gets them only when he gets away from home.

RICHMOND, VA, Bated sweet apples, with some people, brina prompt relief for Constipation. With others, coarse all-wheat bread will have the same effect. Nature undoubtedly has a vegetable remedy, to relieve everyjailment known to man, if physicians can bat find Nature’s way to health. And this is strikingly true with regard to Constipation.The bark of a certain tree in California—Caa. cara Sagrada—offers a most excellent aid to this end. But, combined with Rgyptian Soma, Slippery Rhn Bark, Solid Rxtract of Prunes, etc., Uus same Cascara bark is given its greatest possible power to correct constipation. A toothsome Candy Tablet, called Lax-ets, is now made at Ute Dr. Sboop Laboratories, from this ingenuous and most effective prescription. Its effect on Constipation, Biliousness. Sour Stomach, Bad Breath, Sallow Complexion, etc., is indeed prompt and satisfying.No griping, no unpleasant after effects are experienced, and Lax-ets are put up In beautiful lithographed metal boxes at S cents and 25 cents per box.For something' new, nice, economical effective, try a box of Lax-ets C.

WORK THE HORNET SECTION. ROOT HOG, OR DIE SOME THINGS THAT WILL KEEP YOU GRINNING FOR A WEEK. From The CorrievilIe Bee. We are sorry to state that none of Corrieville’s pretty girls are wearing the latest fashion sheath gowns. Silas Modders is having a special attraction sale at his store this week. He has all ladies hoes half off. We think this crusade against the social evil is all right. The last bo- cial we had in this town cost ye edi tor 35 cents. There ain’t no style about some fellers. Abner Hanks ,of our town drives around in his spring wagon until away in the fall. Mrs, J. P. Butts; our society lead er, has sent to New York for some of that pink tea she has read so much about in the society columns. A chap from the city came down IastSunday and took Miss Hildy Wadeout riding in a ottomobile. We are glad to see Miss Wade get in with the city chaps as she is very pretty. Lew Potter expects to start out soon with his carie rack to attend the fairs. Any fellow that can throw a one-inch ring over a cane with a four-inch head on it gets the cane. A^reader wants to know what so ciety folks mean when they talk a- bout giving anybody a “stocking shower.” Wehavenever been in vited to one of them affairs, but we reckon that’s when they turn the 'hose. The weather man reports that we have had three inches of rain this spring in our vicinity. Cal Stebbins, our gentlemanly and congenial black smith, says the weather man is a liar, as he has got more than seven feet in his cistern already. By gum! we thought summer had come sure when we heard the crick ets hollering all one evening last week; but, come to find out, it was only Hod Purdy setting on the church steps, winding his new dollar watch. Hod’s new watch is guaran teed to run one year, and Hod says it ought to, for it takes about one oear to wind it up. Quite a lot of excitement was caused by a woman's scream the other evening. Everybody thought some one was being murdered, but it turned out that Eph Haskens who was a*courting Miss Betsy Barklie, on her front porch, tried to kiss Betsy, and like all girls she had to yell and wake up all the neighbors. Hereafter, Eph1 gently place your hand over her mouth and then kiss her. Those Sheath Gowns. Some of the prim Puritanic over- modest brethren of the press are shocked at the new “Sheath Gowns” that are being worn by the ultra fashionable, and are endeavoring by criticism and ridicule to make them unpopular. But they will fail in their dastardly attempt, and they ought to fail. Fashionhas decreed that the sheath skirt is the proper thing for the coming season, and ev ery woman who loves dress—and. that makes it unanimous—will wear one or die in the attempt. For our part we say—on with the sheath gown. We haven’t seen the real thing, but we’ve seen pictures of ’em, and we confess that we like their architecture. W ewanttosee more of them. They are a tiling of beauty and a joy forever. We' be lieve they are bound to be immense ly popular when shown to their best advantage. If you disapprove of them, forget it. You’d better get ready for the shock and bciw to the inevitable, for they are coming.— NewportPlainTalk. Let them confie.'bygings! We are anxious to see.’em. They will do a- way with lots of cotton padding, and a fellow will know what he’s get ting. We howl hurrah for the dear sheath gown, and may it be worn by many blushing Americans. -=T-Ihe i Hornet’s Red-Headed Man; * Family Record. The absent-minded professor met a former girl pupil, now grown into a lovely woman, out walking with her three children. “Are they all yours?” he asked approvingly. “All mine,” she answered proud ly, “and the baby at home.” “And are you married yet?” he queried vaguely. “Oh, yes, professor,” she stam mered, blushing furiously. "Good,” he returned. "And how many husbands have you at home?” •New York Press.

A French naturalist asserts that if the world were to become bird- less, man could not inhabit it after nine years’ time, in spite of all the sprays and poisons that could be manufactured for the destruction of insects The bugs and slugs would simply eat op our orchards and crops. Indeed, the more we stud) the various adjustments and arrangements by which the bnsi ness of the natural world about us is carried on, the better disposed we should be to district .our ability to improve upon the present execu tive management of this great ter restrial plant.—Boston Transcript. This shows how - important the birds are tojnan’s existance, and that every citizen should lend his assistance to the enforcement- of the law against the destruction of the birds.
