Charlotte, N. C., Aug. 26.—The mention of the name of W illiam Howard Taft by Permanent Chair man A . H . Price in his speech to night, started a spontaneous de monstration that lasted forty-five minutes. Only after considerable effort on the part of the chair was the outburst of enthusiasm curbed and even a time lim it of that ex tent put upon the cheering. Dur iiig three quarters of an hour de legates madly waved their hats, flags, umbrellas, etc. Republicans from over the state marched and count Hixmarched around Char-I I-.lie ’s big auditorium w ith Teddy Bears, flags and banners. Chir- uiau Adams, ex Congressman Lin- uey, Charles H . Cowles, V irg il b. Lusk and others were carried a- round by the delegates who were madly enthusiastic. No candidate for President has ever received such a demonstration in the state. The features of today’s sessions of the convention in addition to the Taft demonstration, were the speeches of Judge Spencer B. Adams and Augustus H . Price, the latter being the convention’s unanimous choice for permanent chairman. Two sessions were held —one at twelve o’clock, when ChairmanAdams spoke, and the other at 8.30 tonight, when M r. Price was chccen and made his speech. A t ten o’clock tonight the convention adjourned u n til to morrow, when the ticket w ill be nominated and the platform adopt ed. Notwithstanding the almost in cessant downpour of rain for the last three days, sweeping away bridges and paralizing railroad traffic, nearly a thousand delegates were present when the convention was called to order by State Chair man S. B. Adams at noon. ALL FLOOD RECORDS BROKEN. ...a tta in s Kitefeett In the world*.. , Stale Eggs Fpr A Comrade.” H a ll sections of North Carolina showed as little encouragement for Socialisn as Gastonia the “ Com- rabe” who are out lecturing and agitating would have to take to ta ll tim ber. A few days ago one “ Com rade” P itts, a traveling Socialist lecturer dropped into that town and for about three dayB held forth w ith the working people. He grew very incendiary in his utter ances as he waxed warmer and warmer, t ill finally the people con cluded that this harangue had gone far enough. AU at once in the very heat of one of his revolution ary appeals, a shower ot over ripe roi ten tomatoes and eggs of last year’s vintage, began to rain in great profusion. The “ Comrade” brought the lecture to an abrupt end announced that the speaking would be continued to morrow night. B u ta t this juncture the mayor of the little town appeared on the scene and made a counter announcement to the effect that the “ Comrade” was mis-takeh; that the speaking would not be perm it ted to-morrow night or any other night. H looks like the Democra tic-Socialist Pasquotank “ Indepen dent” ought to demand better be havior on the party of its pupils, for be it remembered that Gastonia is a Democratic stronghold. Whatsome people call love isn’t ■even tt goon im itation. #. QR.KING’S W EW D IS C O V E R * S fill Surely S to P p e t Igjgoaju: -..I ' itrM-ZS VrdB1SaaiS AU Streams in tlie Carolinas High er Thao Ever Before Known. f Reports received from all 'sections of South Carolina indicate that the floods last week were the most dam aging of any previously recorded. The flooded area covered practically the entire State and at many points the rivers were from two to six feet higher than ever known. The tele graph and telephone service and the railroads were badly crippled and many towns were isolated. More than a dozen to ll and public bridges crossing the larger rivers in the State were swept away and several steelrailroad bridges went down. Many of the dams along the rivers, erected fo r the protection of the bottom lands, were swept away and the large com crops along the d if ferent streams are a total loss. The total loss of life so fa r as known, is five. Itis impossible to estimate the damage to the farming interests throughout the State. Reports from all sections in North Carolinaindicate the worst floods ever recorded. Bridges, railroads, dams and even houses were washed away or badly damaged The loss to growing crops and bridges w ill run into the millions. Augusta Ga., was one of the worst sufferers, part of that city being under water from six to twelve feet. The storm played havoc in V ir gin ia ^ Many washouts were report ed on the Southern railway. Tobac co is badly damaged. Many bridges were washed away. The town of Duke, this State, was submerged, water being four feet in the stores, and much lumber was washed away, and also many cattle. Chathamcounty suffered severely. The county bridge at Lockville was washed away, also many other coun ty bridges. Three of Guilford county’s largest bridges were swept away, and crops throughout that county are badly damaged. The railroads around Hamletwere practically put out of business. The losstothe Seaboard w ill probably aggregate $100,000. Edgecombecountyget her share of the calamity. The railroads were washed away and all m ills closed down on account of high water. I he Yadkin river got on a big. rampage and did great damage to com and other crops, and a number of bridges were swiped out of exis tence. : A t Wbitney the Yadkin river was over the big stone dam,. making a depth of forty feet. A t Norwood a cotton gin was washed away and all traffic on’the railroads were ser iously crippled. Trains fo r Char lotte and. Atlanta were detoured by way of Asheville. A bad washout occurred on the Southern near Saluda, which wreck ed a freight train and caused the death of Engineer Lee London and the injury of Fireman Phillips. Aiken, S. C., reports one railroad bridge and one wagon bridge on the Savannah river washed away. The Wateree river at Camden, was over forty-one feet. Heavy damage is reported by planters and railroads. The Gatawba. river through this State reached alarming proportions, and did great damage to crops and bridges. The river reached a stage unheard of before. The damage to crops, in this coun ty is very heavy. Ihe North and South Yrdkin rivers washed much com away, while Dutchman and Hunting creeks just about finished up bottom land crops. Cotton is damaged considerably. Two or threebridges were washed-away A Most Representative Gathering. TheConvention at Charlotte is representative of the Republican paity in North Carolina. The men are-all well dressed, neat in their-appearance, genteel and-cour teous-in their mauners. Among them are lawyers, faimers, merch ants, doctors, laborers, manufac turers and representatives of other branches of trade and industry. When the secretary arose to read the call, for the convention an in toxicated delegate arose and said: “ This delegation is hereto demand the nomination of D r. Cyrus Thompson for governor.’’ A n other of the delegates who had stubled across something wet in the dry town of Charlotte, cried out: “ Speak louder, so we in the rear can hear. Louder, louder.” Chairman Adams directed him to take his seat, assuring him ' that when someting happened he should hear it. The openirg address of Chair man Adams was well received. Every reference to Charlotte and the personnel of the convention was appluded to the echo The first genuine outburst of applause, how ever, came when he said that we are here to nominate a ticket that w ill be elected in November. The Auditorium is gorgeously decorated for the occasion. Hund reds of small flags and red, white and blue bunting are arrayed a moDg the overhead girders. Pic tures of Taft and Sherman hang on the walls, while from the central chandelier is suspended a G, O. P. elephant. On the center of the front part of the platform over a large bronze eagle is a huge Teddy Bear and on either side potted plants and palms and electric fans Large blocks of ice in which are embedded wreaths of flowers and photographic scenes about Char lotte are placed in front of the plat form for the purpose of keeping the Auditorium comfortable. The delegates are a ll seated ou the main floor w ith placards to designate where the delegations from the different counties belong. Wilkes and Buncombe, the two counties having the the largest vote in the convention, occupy rows of seats in front on either side of the center aisle.

For Vice-Preeidenb JAMES S. SHERMAN, of'New York. MOCKSVILLE, N. C., SEPT. 3, 1908. The people of North Carolina would like for Mr. W. W. Kitchin to explain what he meant in his Rock ingham speech when he said that "Republicans had as well place their ballots in rural letter boxes, for the good they would do in the coming election." Doeshe propose “ Hali- faxing" the State?______ BRYANITES AND NIGGERITES Brother Pop, don’t you remember how they used to jeer at us and call us the nigger party? Don’t you remember how the De mocratic editors and speakers proud ly claimed that theirs was the white man’s party? Of course you do. Therefore you w ill have to rub your eyes to make sure your vision is clear when you see Hoke Smith signing a b ill which was meant to k ill the disfranchise ment law; and see Bryan holding conferences w ith negro leaders who have been Republicans ever since “ freedom" but who—after talking with the Peerless One—suddenly be comes Bryanites. What does it mean, Brother? The negro leaders went to see Taft about the Brownsville matter, about the Foraker b ill to re-instate the negro troops, about the Southern disfranchisement laws, and about the 14th and 15th amendments. From T aft they got no satisfaction, They then went to see Mr. Bryan about those same matters. He talk ed with them, and they came away rejoicing—perfectly satisfied. What did Bryan say to those ne groes? The South has a right to know. Is it honest, in Bryan, to allow the negro leaders to support him upon the ground that he w ill either com bat the Southern disfranchisement laws, or w ill favor the cutting down of Southern representation in Con gress? What evidence has Bryan given to those negroes which convinces them that he sides with them on these vi tal matters? The question is a fa ir one, gentle men, and it must be met. You are sitting still, uttering no word of protest, while Bryan is nig- gerizing the Democratic parly. Speak out, gentlemen! The Cosmopolitan Club, of New York has for its purpose the prac tice of Social EIquality and of inter marriage between negroes and white people. They gave a banquet a few months ago, at which negro men sat down to eat and drink with white women. They are to give' another such banquet in October. The Secretary of this Social Equal ity Club is out making speeches for Mr. Bryan. TheRev. Dr. Corrothers. negro divine of eminent respectability, is likewise out making speeches for Bryan. Tohisaudience of negroes in Washington, D. C., the Re\ erend Doctor declared: “ Let us vote fo r Mr. Bryan, a man who w ill enforce the 14th and 15th amendments." And the audience roared w ith en thusiastic approval. H ow longw illitbe before South ern Democrats compel M r. Bi /an to repudiate the support offered to him on those grounds?—Watson’s Jeffer sonian Weekly. Don’t Forget. He is a sorry white man who for gets his mother or his father. He is a sorrier white man who forgets his benefactor. That is why we say we know Taft w ill be elected by a rousing m ajority. That is why we know he should be elected. Some of the new school p o litici ans te ll UB that we must draw the veil over the past and wrestle only with new principles. We deny is. Wechallenge any man to te ll ns why and give good reasons for it. The Democratic party has made record. I t made it and it gloried in it. I t never asked to be for given. I t was defiant in defeat and has remained sullen and im potent ever since the great Lee in tears handed over his sword'to the great Grant who accepted it in love. I t wrote his history and immerced it in the blood of the Nation. The treasure it destroyed; the lives it surrendered and the unholy cause for which it wantonly attempted its treasonable acts and utterances is history and can’t be effaced. And in this year of grace as well as in any other year these histori cal facts must not be forgotten. TheDemocratic party fough for human slavery. I t wanted to spread its territory; it gloated in selling from the auction black mother; it was brutal and inhuman in its treatment of Union soldiers captured and staived in its prison pens and the man is a weaking who is afraid to again te ll the story. Suppose the Christian world were to forget past history. Sup pose it were to forget that Christ died to save the world; that he was crucified by those who scoffed and did not believe—snppose the church of to-«day were to look only to recent events to prove that it was the civilizer and the agency of great good. The Redublican party was born w ith a mission to perfrom. Every chapter whether war or peace is a part of that history and that his tory must always be retold; must always be kept uppermost in the minds of men. The great warror tells of his great victeries; his achievements; the great students take a ll their lives to complete the whole; the great men of the earth made their history and every act in it is a part and parcel of it. The Republican party blotted out the great stain ot human slav ery—was an agency of the ju st God to do the act. I t cost1 lives and treasure—but its fearfulness was made so that it conld be remem. bered, that slavery would not a- gain be attempted in this Nation. The Republican party builded school and thus gave intelligence its hope. Democracy was ignorant and debased and didn’t want free schools; opposed them and fought against them; it wanted a ll that was low and savage. The Republi can party was and is the party of progression; the party that- aided a ll free thought and free speech; the party that had ideals and fought to preserve arid sustain them. I t made this the greatest nation in the world; it brought forth statesmen and soldiers—it was and is the party of freedom. The Democratic party has always been the party of retrogression. I t has gone backward and always, like a hissiLg snake, decried the grand trium phs and achievements of Republicanism And therefore we say that this history made by Democracy w ill not be forgotten, and every great fu l man in this republic w ill wake up on election day and vote for the party that saved and preserved the Union when treason defied it; when in the mighty theatre of war it cared for its soldiers livin g and the widows of the dead: when it give free homes to a ll who wanted them —when it set the proud flag w ith its stars and stripes against the sky of . God and maintained its dignity and its honor whenever and wher ever they were assailed. Vote for Taft—to f course every liberty loving man w ill vote for him ; every laboring man w ill vote for protection against the scum and riff raff ot Europe; every-.thinking maa w ill vote fmTthe party thatj has w ritten the greatest record of anj) party in the wide, wide world. A rid not to do it would be un greatful and un-American.—Yel low Jacket. Calahaln Taft and Cox Club.

Ye pencil pusher went up to the village of Statesville Friday night on the Hoot Owl Special to take in Robinson’s circus which was hilled for Saturday. Statesville needs a couple of good hotels. We came near having to lean up against a brick wall for the night. We met up with the Salisbury horseshoer. the oil machinery man and the famous Southern ticket puncher, just as we weie heading in the big tent. Eour aces make a flush. The renowned clown, John Low low gave u- the glad hand and we gave him the best we had. TheTicket Punch er presented the tickets and the Horse-shoer presented a strong front. The reserved seats were not for sale—people took them for a plunk and a half. -Theshow had been vaccinated and wouldn’t, take. We le ft it, but too late. That Horse shoer bad dropped the ene my and another fellow made first base with corn at $1 a bushel. We tarried for the concert. A beauti fu l song was rendered by a lady w ith feet incased in shoes that m ight have been taken for fairy boots. The Ticket Puncher want ed ua to cheer her. The chairs were nailed down, so we throwed brick bats. Afterwards we ate at a calf and heard a lion roar. The parting came at 8 p. in.

I know nothing abo; ‘ grammer talk and college high-falutin. Now the text says, they shall know a file. Itdoesnot say they may, but shall. Now there is the hand saw file, the rat*tail file, the sin gle file, the double file and profile, but the kind spake of here ain’t that kind, bekase its a figger of speech, and means going it along, and getting ukered. Now there be some here w ith fine clothes an their backs, brass rings on their fingers, and lard on their hair, but I say my brethren, take care yon don’t find, when Gabriel blows his last trump, your hand played out and you’ve got ukered— ah - 1 now my brethren,. “ They shall flee to the mountains of Hepsidam,11 but there’s m ori dams than Hep-, sidam.

I at once got up and wentout, found her very ill with cramp colic, so bad, in fact, that I was almost afraid to take the risk; her hands and arms were drawn up so you could not straighten them, and with a death like look on her face. Two or three ladieswereworking with her and giving her whiskey.

I could at once see the effect and I worked w ith her, rubbing her hands, and in twenty minutes I gave her another dose. By this time we were almost into Le Grande, where I was to leave the train. I gave the bottle to the husband to be used in case another dose should be needed, but by the time time the train ran into Le Grande she was all right, and I received the thanks of every passenger in the car.” For sale by C.

The man who is ashamed to work w ith his handa w ill never do any valuoble work w ith his brains. TTjc Storm. The heavy rains whicb have beet falling upon the greater part of the Carolinaa almost continuoaly since last Suntlay afternoon come as no small evil. To-day’s Observer, continuing the stories begun yes terday or the day before, presents a picture of widespread damage al most incredible for this section and doubtless unprecedented for the two States chiefly involved. East ern North Carolina has suffered to a degree which may well make friendly outside aid acceptable in soniecouDties. In varying degrees over most of both Carolinas crops have been enormously damaged, railroads, city lighting and water works plants and bridges over all classes of streams, are made to pay heavy tribute. How South Caro lina Democrats held any manner of State prim ary outside the towns on Tuesday is a wonder; how the North Carolina Republican conven tion now Charlotte’s guest—in spite of every drawback, a large and fine-looking body of men—has shown up strong, is much gie ter cause for wonder s till. The people of the two States have suffered seriously. We find onr chief con solation in the thought that most of the farmers, the Class worst af fected are much better able to bear such a misfortune than they would have been a few years ago. This morning, we are led to believe, the deluge is practically past.

IThe Independence League ap- Iared lor the first time, and Illed about 1,000 votes, while the Iohibitiou and Socialistic vote re Iiiued about the same. An unu- ially large number of lo ta l con- s (or members of the legisla- v, although bringing out a. hea- Ivofe and resulting in Demo- Stic gains in the lower branch of e legislature, apparently had no aring ou the gubernatorial fight.

The m illionaire owner of the In dependence League takes the posi tion that high-price cotton meaes high-price doting for the poor; hence snch men as Livermore, who try to put up the price of cotton, are doing a great wrong to the poor. W ill Mr. Hearst and his Inde pence pay-rollers please answer these questions? (1) Were the poor people of the country better clothed when cotton was down to six cents than they are now, when the price is between ten and eleven? In other words, how much of the benefit of six cents cotton went to the poor? (2) What is the difference be teewnr the amount which the far mer gets for a bale of cotton and the sum which the spinner gets when he sells the cloth made out of the bale? (3) How much does it cose the farmer, on an average, to make a bale of cotton; and how much does it cost the spinner to weave the bale into cloth? (4) Why is it that a Chinaman can buy American cloth, in China, cheaper than the American -can buy it here at home? (5) Why is it that M r. Hearst does not favor the placing of cotton goods on the free list, in order that the poor, over whom he editorially weeps, may be able to buy cotton goods as cheaply as the Chinese can buy theirs? We trust that M r. Hearst w ill detail one of his editorial Inde pence Leagures to answer these question. Iu the meantime, we take it that M r Hearsthasabandonedthe hope of capturing the Farmers’ TJnion Vote. Like Bryan, he slaps the South to curry favor w ith the North. ^ By the bye—how low does M r. Hearst think that cotton should go? As he complains of ten-cent cot ton, and did not complain when Theodore Price, Joe Hoadley, and others put it down to six ceqjts, we have some curiosity to know whet her five cents per pound for lin t cotton would be low enough to suit our m illionaire Independence Leaguer, W illiam B. Hearst.— Tom Watson. Baby’s Hair Changed Color. Arem arkable phenomenon hap pened in New Hope township SaD urday. The 15-months old daugh ter ot M r. and Mrs. L . B. Hines went to sleep w ith her hair of lig h t flaxen color and when she awoke, w ithin a half hour, the hair had changed to auburn.

The State ticket put out by the Republican conveutiot at Charlotte last week is a strong and clean ticket Elmore, the candidate for Corporation Commissioner, is a popular Railroad engineer and w ill possibly be elected as he has about 20,000 Railroad hands behind him that have heretofore voted the other ticket.

Th KMYn IUw Aleajs Ntfit Bears the Slgnatureof We Still Have Pennsylvania; From a perusal of the Demo cratic papers One gets the impress ion that the time for M r. Taft to withdraw from the presidential race had about arrived. From this indisputable source of p o liti cal wisdom it appears that about the only state the'Republican can didate is like ly to carry is Pennsyl vania which norm ally gives some 500,000 Republican m ajority. We are told that ou account of the prohibition Maine w ill snrely go Democratic; Ohio and Indiana w ill go Democratic because the ne groes are a ll going to vote that ticket; Illin o is w ill go for Bryan because Uncle A dlai Stevenson is running for governor, and Minne sota w ill vote the same ticket be cause Yon Yonson is running for governor there, and the western and southern states are going De mocratic on general principles. It seems that the only thing that w ill save M r. Taft from a hum iliating defeat would be au immediate sur render. Strange to say, the betting in the large cities s till stays five to ene on Taft, and about the fifth of November it w ill be interesting to watch these Democratic papers ex plain to their readers how it all happened.—Industrial News. In Missouri. Omaha Bee. The situation in Missouri this year holds a number of local feat ures that promise to appeal to the independent vote in favor of the Republican candidate. M r. Bry an is no stronger in Missouri than he was in I9Q0, if he.has not lost ground. The free silver sentiment is as dead in Missouri as it is in other states and the voters of the state are particularly well satisfied with M r. Taft and w ith the admin istration of the Republican legisla ture. Attorxey-Generai Hadley, who has established a national reputation by his conduet of af fairs of his office, is the Republi can candidate for governor and his election is practically conceded, even by the Democrats. He is op posed by W . S. Cowherd, a Demo crat (from Kansas C ity, who is a forceful campaigner and a man of ability, but who is adm ittedly al lied w ith the corporation interests of the state, against which the De mocrats and citizens generally have been in revolt for several years. The Republicans. are united as never before in the history of the state and the Democrats are sadly divided by factional quarrels. A North Carolina Horse That Will Suit Judge TafL Washington Dispatch. Silas Wegg, who is from V irg inia, is convinced that he has the horse of a ll others which M r. Taft should buy. In a letter to. Brig. Gen. C. Edwards, chief of the bu reau of insnlar affairs, who was re ported as looking for a good horse for M r. Taft, Silas Wegg says: •‘Dear S ir: I see by the papers that yon are looking up a big horse for ex Secretary Taft. We7Ve got a dandy down on our farm at Tar- boro. N. C., blooded stallion, 23 hands high, 3,000 pounds. His plans and specifications w ill me asure up along-side M r. Taft. He is cream colored and the rear view is grand. “ We are tryine hiih out w ith 400 pounds of sand on 10 mile runs, and he takes it easy. H eiskinder touchy and cuts up, but M r. Taft can hold him down a ll rig h t. He is kinder batty in one eye, but not so as you can notice it much. We got him from a circus, and he can do a ll kinds of tricks. Ifth e next President gets this animal and has photographs taken w ith him on, he would get lots of advertising.77 People can depend only on them selves—and a good many people can7t even do that. Big Fire in New Orleans. Fire which broke out in the cen tre of the commercial district here Sunday swept portions of three blocks,, destroying.a large number of wholesale houses, manufactur ing plants and small stores, caus ing a lcfes of between §1,000,000 and $2j000,000. The fire was one of the most spectacular that has occurred in New Orleans during recent years. The section devastated was made up largely of old buildings, some over a half century in use. They proved like so much tinder to the flames, and fanned by a high wind the fire, made rapid progress. Two warehouses, filled w ith wines and IiquopSj' were among the building- destroyed by the fire. As they burned the barrels of whiskey and brandy exploded with thunderous roars which could be heard for blocks and which shook the walls of adjoining buildings and endan gered the lives of firemen engaged in fighting the flames.

LARGEST CIRCUUTION OF ANT PAPER EVER PUBLISHED IN DAVIE COUNTY. OOR TICKET. For President, WM. H. TAFT of Ohio. For Vice-President: JAMES S. SHERMAN, of New York. MOCKSVILLE, N. C., SEPT. 10, 1908. OUR NEXT GOVERNOR. Elsewhere in this paper is an ac count of the Republican Convention which convened in the city of Char lotte last week and nominated a State ticket. A t the head of that ticket is placed one of the best men of the State, J. EIwood Cox. The convention distinguished itself by nominating the ticket it did. There is not a man on it against whom naught can be said. The Republi: cans in the State were never more closely united and a3 M r, Cox said in his speech of acceptance, “ the campaign'will be conducted upon a high plain,” but nevertheless with vigor and the determination to win, and if the signs point right, J. El- wood Cox is going to be the next goyemor of North Carolina. He is the kind of man the business inter ests of the State want. He is safe, conservative and every inch a busi ness man, and a Christian gentle man. If he is elected the State is safe in his hands and we w ill be guaranteed a period of rest from the turmoil and demagog which has been so prevalent in the State for the past four years; business confi dence w ill be restored and outside capital w ill feel safe invested in the development of the State’s resour ces. This campaign w ill be fought, so far as the Republican party is concerned, gn business principles, and not so much upon party lines. Thebusinessinterestsof the State have been demanding a candidate for .governor in whose hands the material growth and business enter prises w ill be safe, and the Republi can party has come to the rescue of the laboring and business man and named a man|who when eleetad w ill meet all the requirements of just such a governor, in the j. person of M r. CoX.—North State. Now Get Down to Yoor KnRting. Col. Fairbrother in Everything. I t is up to the Democrats who have been talking, to shoot or give up the gun. A year and more ago the conservative Demosrats of North Carolina wanted to start a new party—they wanted to run a business man for governor; they wanted to cut loose from the poli tics and politicians who have pre empted offices. The time has come, now, when these so-called independent Demo crats, lhose manufacturers and bus iness men who claimed they were tired of politics and wanted busi ness introduced into state affairs, can express themselves. J El- wsod Cox is pre-eminently a busi ness man. He is a clean citizen; a Bafe citizen; a good citizen—and as Joe Caldwelliifrequently remarks, “ that word citizen is a good one ” I f the business interests of the state want to see a change; if they want to have for governor a man who is^business from the shoulder and who wonld devote his time ex clusively to giving the state a bus iness administration, they can vote for Cox and vate for him consist ently. He standB diametrically opposed to a ll that K itchin advo cates—so far as we have heard K itchin on the Btump. Cox wants to build up his state. He wants to encourage foreign capital; he wants railroads to have a chance to run and equip their rolling stock w ith the latest and best; he wants to see development and he would favor giving the railroads a subsidy for getting m ail to us many hours in advance.. . He carries a railroad pass as {^director of a failway and if he can manage to Buy a railroad and own it, he w ill get s till more votes. The wave of anarchy which swept the state against the ra il roads has about subsided-. W hat we want in office are men who fa vor progression; business men who w ill build and not tear down. Cox w ill never appeal to the pasBions and prejudices of men. He w ill or should appeal to a ll business men; to a ll men who want to own homes and a ll men who own homes—he BhouId receive every railroad man’s vote; he should get the lion’s Bhare of the business vote and the farm er who does not want to see the railways and trusts absolutely wiped out of this state w ill vote for Cox—the clean-handed busi ness man. I t is now up to those who talked to organize. There is no excuse for blushing or apologizing if you vote for Elwood Cox. He is as good a citizen as there is in the confines of North Carolina—and he stands for a ll the things, practi cally, that K itohin opposes in the industrial life of the state. Dozens of Democrats in Greens boro have already informed us, or rather stated in our presence, that they wonld vote for Cox—and we are now of opinion that Cox and Bryan or Bryan and Cox w ill be a ticket quite liberally voted, throu- out the state. Anyway, it is now up to those Democrats who have claimed to be dissatisfied to either shoot or give up the gun. Republican Platform and Tickel Under the surface, there is a great deal of importance to be at tached to the outcome of the Re publican state convention at Char lotte. I t was not a program con vention, and its results are not “ slate” results. I t named a State ticket and adopted a platform look ing toward a m ilitant campaign, and toward a future m ilitant or ganization. I t is a platform intended to ap peal to business and commercial interests, which (interests include most common folkBi and even some politicians. Its platform utterance on the subject of local self government, was a seatement of principle, not looking to a re-opening of the pro hibition question, but leaving it to be handled locally according to the dictates of political prudence, just as it w ill be handled by the Demo crats. M r. Cox, nominated for Gover nor, stands very high in esteem in his own community and the State, and the men on the ticket with him are good, able and worthy men—men holding such general repute.—Asheville Gazette News. Daniels, Raiboads, Niggers. One objection M r. Jofe Daniels has against candidate Cox is that be carries a railroad pass. He says it means that Cox is in sym pathy w ith the railroads. M r. Daniels, read the foelowing: “ It is said that M r. Vanderford, of Rowan county, has been asBign ed to the duty of raising a Bryan campaign fund in this state be cause of a'peculiar fitness for the work which lay in the circum stance that he, as director of the North Carolina railroad, is armed with a railroad pass. The ap pointment of M r. Vanderford, it was pointed out, had been made shortly after the conference on fi nances which was held at Lincoln, and was attended by Messrs. Pet tigrew and Daniels-” “ We do not think this looks very well for the Democracy. That party, when something of the kind was demanded by the exegencies of the political situation, seemed w illing to go to any IengHi In its hostility toward the railroads, an “ issue” second only in importance to that of a careful hostility to ward the negro. Now the party is engaged in making overtures to negro voters, and, instead of sub- jesting the'railroads to the custo mary abuse lo r which they confi dently look w ith each recurring campaign, the party leaders are u fin j “ A ” pass in their efforts to increase the Bize of the Bryan dough'bag. As we have before remarked, such things do not look creditable in any party. The idea seems to be to abuse the negro and the railroads whenever the p o liti cal game seems to demand such a course, and then use both to serve a political end whenever to do so appears expedient. — Industrial News. Mr. Mwehead Siould be Elected. The F ifth Congressional district of North Carolina should be repre sented in the Congress of the U ni ted States by a Republican, first and foremost because the national policies which have been main tained in this country for practi cally forty years, and under which the district has grown fram an ag ricultural region purely to be the greatest manufacturing district in the southern states are Republican policies. The development of the manufacturing interests of the dis tric t has not crippled its agricul tural growth at a ll, but, on the contrary, in fam ishing a home market for the producer, has fu r ther enhanced his opportunities. Thegreatcorelated industries ag riculture and manufactures have marched along band in hand and in their wake have Iett a tra in of schools, colleges, churches and homes. The Republicans have nomina ted as their candidate for Congress a man who is in fu ll sympathy with the great constructive policies of the party. The Democrats have named as their candidate a man who says that he is a “ Bryan De mocrat” and that he stands for everything that that erratic man stands for. The statement made by M i. Brooks in his speech of ac ceptance should alone defeat him for Congress. The F ifth district does not need a man to represent it in Congress who believes in free trade, free silver, ,the election of United States judges by the direct vote of the people, the election of United States senators in the same way, the initiative, and referen dum, the government ownership of railroad and telegraph lines, and other socialistic schemes, I t is worth but little to say that M r. Bryan is not advocating these things now. Has he ever said that he was done w ith themf Not once. —Indnstrial News, Webb and Crawford. Ike Crawford, a “ negro politic ian” who is out in the interest of Congressman Webb, is highly pleased w ith conditions. He says M r. Webb is making big gains in Cleveland. He w ill take up head quarters • next to Mecklenburg county. Justw hatkind of effect this w ill have on decent Demo crats in Gaston county and the other eight counties in the Ninth district w ill only be revealed in the November election.—-Bessemer City Messenger. Mr. J. Elwood Cox. W e do not know M r. J. Elwood Cox,' the Repnblican nominee for Governor. We thought at first that the Republicans had made a mistake. We thought they ought to have nominated D r. Thompson or M r. J. J. B iitt. But when we read the Ncwb and Observer arid found that M r. Daniels gave him nearly swo columns of “ down the country,” then we were convinced that Cox was a strong, good man. I f Joe w ill keep on, he w ill near about elect Cox governor. Go it, Joe, go it.—Hickory Mercury. likes The Ticket. Our Democratic friends are re quested to read the following ar ticle which we copy from The Dur ham Herald, a Democratic paper: “ The Republicans at least set the democrats an example in good manners. • O f course it is understood that they could not have named a tick et that would have suited the de mocrats. - We suppose we had better say right now that the ticket is a fa irly good one before the democrats con vince us that it is not so.” - The importation of twenty thous and bushels of yellow dent corn from Argentine by the Glucose Trust indicates that we have a for midable rival in corn, production. The harder you lift for your fel lows the less danger of their p u ll ing you, down, Farmers on Top. W ereioice w ith exceeding great joy that “ poor down-trodden farm er” has ariseri from the ashes and now possesses his own business. We have recently visited a com m unity where, a decade ago, the “ time” merchant was the monarch of a ll he surveyed. The farmer puts him self completely under the power of this village autocrat, and when he laid in his supplies the crusty clerks were under instruc tions to sell him as. possible and at as high a price. The poorer the buyer the bigger the price. In the fa ll of the year the crop was simp ly turned over to the merchant and there were hard times in the far mer’s home u n til the next spring when the books were opened for another account. Oh, those were dark dayg for the tille r of the soil, and no negro who ever arose at the dawn of day at the crack of the overseer’s lash was more of a slave. Things are different now. The far mer has learned a few things. He has put his brain to work, and by the proper use of fertilizers, the drainage of his land, the employ ment of better tools and the ap plication of more common sense generally in running of his bueiness he has besome the captain and the store man the servant. The fine prices oi the past ten years haVe amply rewarded him for a ll his to il, and the rural free delivery has brought in close touch w ith the outside world. W e wish the changed c Jiiditious in this com munity m ight be universally true, and we are glad to believe there is steady progress everywhere in ihis direction. The raw and awkward hayseeder, whose picture adorns the funny papers, is coining to be the finest gentleman in the bunch. Charity and Children. More About the Greensboro Waif. The Landmark has told the story of the baby le ft at Greensboro. A special of August 27th to the Char lotte Obaervergives this additional information: “ The young woman who le ft her 6-weeks old daughter w ith a color ed woman here a week ago, and whose identity was discovered later by the police officers, carried the little one away on a south bound train that le ft Greensboro this morning soon after m idnight. The destination of the mother and baby is not known. “ Mary Tatum, the Colored wo man in whose care the infant was left, was paid $5 to keep the baby a week, at the end of whieh time she was to deliver the helpless lit tle one to the North Carolina C hil dren’s Home Society, w ith head quarters in this city, and it is evident that it was the purpose of the parents to desert their offspr ing. The week expired last night, and but for the activity of the police officers it is probable that the origi&al programme would have been carried out, “ In the meantime the identity oi the parents had been learned, and in order to avoid arrest and exposure the mother came to Greensboro and claimed her baby a few hours before the colored woman was scheduled to turn it over to the superintendent of the Children’s Home Society. The mother, a pretty and educated young woman, is a member of a highly respeoted fam ily of Catawba county. The father is a w ell- known young lawyer and a former member of the North Carolina Leg islature.” —Statesville Landmark. I t has been reported in States v ille that R irigliflg Bros’ , circus was coming to town and finally re port has set the date for the mid dle of next month. The Ringling show is heading for North Caro lina but as yet it has made no date for Statesville and it is not posi tively known that it w ill come here.—Landmark. C itizensofH igh Pointgave M r. J.

SOME THINGS THAT WILL KEEP YOU GRINNING FOR A WEEK. OUR RED-HEADED MAN. Say, girls, I want to m arry; I am looking foe a wife and I want one that can cook, starch and iron. I asked a g irl once if Bhe would marry me and she said, * ‘you don’t mean it.” She must have been a mind reader. This is one on a sport in this town. He didn’t know I was around: “ The moon shone in the heavens The stars were in a w hirl, They slowly strolled together, Sam and his best g irl. She looked up sweetly in his face And softly she did say, Sammy, there’s some one coming, Please take your arm away. Hemusthave had his arm a round her neck. I almost wish it had been me. Never feed a g irl chewing gum. Thie sweetest time in woman’s life , ere sorrows dawn and troubles come, and ere she tastes of wedded strife, is when she chews the pastic gum. Stuck on the mantlepiece we find the odious alabaster crum, or close up on the wall behind the bed, that everlasting gum; but many hearts do most despair, and sooner manly souls succomb, when sitting in a parlor chair, one sits upon the chewing gum. Courting is a ll right in its place, bat some of the Mocksville boys and girls court at the wrong time. A guilty conscience needs no ac cuser. Be more careful in the fu ture. I found the following article in a uewspaper the other day: “ Oh! Ye delinquent subscribers, may you live another year and read the paper free, for the wind bloweth, the water floweth, the farmer soweth, the subscriber ow- eth, and the Lord knoweth where the delinquent goeth.” I heard Roy singing a plaintive little song the other day, which sounded like this: Oome back, Mary, and love me as before, Come back, Mary, and leave me nevermore, In life ’s dark pathway the sun no longer shines, Come Mary, and meet me, ’neath the shadow of the pines. D id you know that the reason language is called the mother ton gue is because no man ever gets the chance to use it when there is a woman around. The prettiest piece of creation I have ever seen, was flopping around loose in this city the other day. But she is no more. Iw ish I liv td in a big town like Advance. There are lots of pretty girls over there, but precious few pretty bnyB, although some of our girls here think some of them are as sweet as cream and sugar. Wonder if Bed-Headed John w ill say that I hooked this stuff out of an old book. I hope not. I have got about forty-five names of girls who want to get married, and they needn’t say that they don’t. Some of them are high lowjack and the game. I am one of those kind of fellows woman set her foot up on a rock opposite that new store and tie her shoe, and a fellow yelled ex celsior—and I saw a g irl trying to make a man from Utah marry twice, and I caught a g irl trying to fix her bangs: In anger flew her agile jaws, As swear words darted from her tongue, The maid was fighting mad because She couldn’t make her bangs stay bung. I am a strange piece of creation. I ’m a man. and yet it can be prov en by a ll my friends who are ac» quainted w ith me that I am noth ing more or let’s than a woman. It is useless for any one to say they know me, for they do not. Many false prophets are abroad in the land, dressed in sheep’s clothing, but believe them not.

Garber, a well known travelling man. “ I was in the smoking department w ith some other travelling men when one of them went out into the coach and came back and said, ‘There is a woman sick unto death in the car. I at once got up and went out, found her very ill with cramp colic, so bad, in fact, that I was almost afraid to take the risk; her hands and arms were drawn up so you could not straighten them, and w ith a death like look on her face.

I could at once see the effect and I worked with her. rubbing her hands, and in twenty minutes I gave her another dose. By this time we werealmostintoLe Grande, where I was to leave the train. I gave the bottle to the husband to be used in case another dose should be needed, but by the time time the train ran into Le Grande she was all right, and I received the thanks of every passenger in the car.” For sale by C.

The Bryan popular dollar cam paign has'proved a fla t failure in Nebraska, and the Democrats are ery much discouraged over the small number of subscriptions that are received. Two weeks ago the Omaha W orld-Herald opened a popular subscription lis t, and the names ol the subscribers, with the amount of subscription, have since been made public. The total sub scriptions for the two weeks is only $396.80, of which $300 was given by three men, leaving the “ popu la r” subscriptions totaling only $96.80. The dollar subscriptions numiier only 30. Altogether only; 48 subscriptions were received dur ing the two weeks, and the whole thing is looked upon as a failure in political circles. But is such au utter fa il if re to raise subscriptions for Democracy any surprise to a t hinking manf We should say not. By. bis wild cat schemes and radi cal theories, his flipfiopping and side-stepping Bryan has come very nearly disgus ing the whole human race towards his political judg ment. He has alienated both plutocrat” and pauper. I t ’s no wonder the people don’t cough up the dough to finance hfs campaign. Theyf know his theories on free silver were unsound. They know his “ imperialism” charges against M cKinley were thinner than soap- bubbles. They know his Govern meDt ownership spasm was So cialistic, and hence they have very little , if any, faith in the declara tion on that part of his pretended followers and admirers this year that Bryan is Bafe and sane.” Bryan’s Life.

I f he is elected President he w ill be master of the situation and his hobbies of free trade, free silver, government ownership, etc., w ill be brought actively into —Union Republican. play. BRYANITES AS NIGGERITES. Henry Watterson, the veteran Kentnaky editor, seems to be the mainspring of Bryan's campaign. Those of us who remember the savage editorial which Brother Watterson wrote against the Hon. W . J. Peerless last Spring, find it difficult to recognize in the same "Watterson a rampant- Bryanite. Years ago, M r. Watterson was chairman of a Democratic Conven tion which pnt forth a platform expressing the “ devotion” of the Democratic Party to the 13th. 14th and 15th amendments. We regard this platform statement as the very worrt of a ll the hum ilia tions which Northern and Eastern Democratie ever inflicted npon the Sonth. The Sonthern people were put in the position of licking the hand that smote them. To compel the South to say that the 13th, 14th and 15 th amendments com manded her “ devotion,” was the same as though the bleeding victim of a ravisher were forced to say that she gloried in her misfortune. M r. Watterson attracted atten tion and criticism some years ago, by making certain statements in his lecture on Abraham Linooln which represented the South as having refused to consider certain magnanimous propositions which M r. Lincoln made at Hampton Eoads. As a matter of fact, M r1 Lincoln did not make any magnanimouB proposals at Hampton Boads, or anywhere else. M r. Watterson has been pro minent as a friend of Booker Wash ington and other ‘‘colored gentle men of refinement and culture.” He enjoys speaking from the same platform w ith these superior Afro- Americans. Apparently, he would have no objection to social equali ty w ith negroes, provided be is al lowed to pick and choose—avoid ing those gentlemen of color who are not refined as well as cultured. Sach being the antecedents of M r. Watterson, we can not be greatly surprised that he has now boldly challenged the correctness of the Southern position on the negro question. Says M r. Watterson: “ The time has come for the ne gro to divide his vote and. thas be come a factor in politics such as he is not today.” W hat has the Sonth been trying to do, for the last thirty-five years! Been trying to re-establish W hite Supremacy. Ever since the C ivil War, the Democratic bosses have ruled the Sonth w ith a rod of iron, because it claimed to be the white man’s party. We have made every imaginable sacrifice to ward off the peril ol Kegro Domination. We have snbmitted to a ll sorts of im positions at the hands of Eastern Democracy, because of the fact that the Democratic party of the Soath was allowed to have its own way in dealing w ith the negro question. Our national leaders, Gen. John B. Gordon, Gen. Wade Hampton and Gen. M . C. Batter, traded a- way Tilden’s chance to be Presi dent in exchange for the withdraw al of the Federal troops from the Sonth; and we have always be lieved that the trade was patriotic, wise and statesmanly. When Pres ident Hayes ordered the XJ. S. troops away from the South, white supremacy was an accomplished fact, and this resnlt was worth im mensely more to us than anything that we could have expected from that cock-eyed railroad wrecker, SamTilden. Beginningwith the Disfranchise ment law of Mississippi—which Senator George defended in the TJ. S. Senale w ith such {wonderful a~ b ility and learning—the Southern States have been laboring steadily to pnt the negro oat of politics. FheentireSouth is committed to the principle of W hite Supremacy. Tethere comes Bryan's chief lieutenant proposing to reverse oar policy, undo our work, and over throw the whole fabric of arduous effort by making the negro more of a factor in politics than he is today! How can the Bryanites make the negro more of a factor in politics than he is today, withoat endan gering W hite Supremacy. How can you increase the im portance of the negro, politically, without rnnning into the danger of negro domination? Does the South want to see the negro become a more powerful fac tor in politics! Does the South want to see the negro become the umpire of differences among the whites! Look to it, Southern leaders! Look to it, Vardanian, Tillm an, Broward, Swanson, Glenn, Comer and Folk. W hat say you, Senator Culber son, of Texas!—do you agree w ith M r. Watterson that the negro ought to become more of a political factor than he is today! The b light of Bryanism has wrought vast evil in this republic, bat the worst is yet to come. Bemember that Bryan was born and reared in Illin o is. Bemember his prejudice against the ex-Con- federate soldiers. Bemember that his convention hissed the name of Bobert E. Loe.

Since the much rain-, chills and malaria are in nearly every fam ily in this section, and in some cases very obstinate. Mrs. Augustus Johnson is c riti cally ill, and at the best is not ex pected to live more than a few days. B right’s disease seems to be the leading trouble. A good number of onr young men have gone to the different schools as they opened at- different places. We think this is promis ing much for the church and our country in the future. B ut some of our present genera-; tion does not seem to be so Gom- mendable in their actions. Two brothers have been lawing each other u n til the court became tired of it and threw the case oat. Two of our women became antagonistic with each other over a man; one has been loving the other’s hus band a little too much, a scuffle re sulted on the streets of Salisbury, and one went off w ith a scratched and bruised nose. We also under stand that some women near China Grove, got into a rnmpns also, which resulted in disheveled hair and sim ilar and other phenomenal appearances. As far as we know of the Davie ladies, they are of a more reputable character than this and we do not give this as the standard character of our Bowan ladies. The campaign begins to loom np in Rowan, and the Bepublicans w ill soon put out their county tick et. The Democrats have a nnm ber of wet men on their ticket, and if the Republicans w ill be careful to select dry men, there w ill be many who w ill break across their party affiliations to vote for dry men this year. We need dry men to perfect and enforce the grand victory of May 26th. AU counties that want to elect their party men in November, should put oat pro hibitionists.

There ha9 been a whole lo t of bad things said abont M ary’s lit tle lamb, but the worst I ever saw penned about Mary was the follow ing brief epistle: Mayde Marye had a hard-brow ed ram, as black as any grow, and everywhere that Marye went the ram was share to go. I t went with her to Zion church one peaceful Sabbath day, and Marye thought it would behave in a religious way. A deacon met them at the door, and said ’twould be a sin, to see a wicked beast at church, but rain- my butted in ! The deacon got a plexus punch that stretched him on the floor, and the subsequent proceedings interested him no more. The congregation rubber necked w ith widely staring eyes, the superstitious thinking ’twas the devil in disguise. A sister from her seat arose—she fain would hence depart—but got a chug be hind her back that almost broke her heart. “ I w ill expel the sin fu l brute!” cried Brother P etti grew, but in his midst the ram- my’s brow was buried p. d. g. A choir man threw a prayin’ stool to crush the warlike ram, and landed it w ith vigor on poor Marye’s dia phragm. The preacher said that kindness would subdne w ild beasts and birds, and moved toward the waiting pet w ith soft, endearing words. Then came a d u ll and sickening thud! The pastor, where was he? Go ask the sinner in whose lap he lit ungraciously. Ifyouhappen to see a fellow who resembles a bull dog, and he is looking for me, te ll him Pm off to the Morganton asylum. I did not want a thrashing, so I got ont. I was 19 my next birthday, which was last week, and my looks im prove daily. A young man in Korth Mocks- ville who has been courting the same g irl for 13 years, failed to come in on time a few Sundays ago, and great excitement was stirred up. I went out to a party not long ago. One g irl gave me her heart, it was made of candy. John said one of the girls had a rat in her hair, and I tried to catch it. She got mad at me. W hat makes the girls wear rats in their heads, when they are afraid to get in 40 feet of a mouse? The more I like that g irl, the, better I see her. I don’t mind the old man taking a chair after me when I call on his daughter, but I draw the line when it comes to heaving rotten eggs at my head from the crib door, when £ am engaged in the loving task of telling my g irl goodbye. I want to know what the consequence would have been had he thrown one down my throat? I would not have raised the chicken; but I would have learned the old hog that I wasn’t an incubator,: and that I could raise bald- heads off the ground quicker than I could raiseschickens from rotten eggs, I am kept busy these days try ing to raise the cash to take a va cation. I have succeeded in rais ing the enormous sum of 43 cents. That amount w ill take me to Ad vance or Barber Junction. There are pretty girls at both places. I f I can raise enough cash I ’ll go further and take Ben along to in struct me in courtship and m atri mony. I oncehadagirl whom I was sure loved me. She could write the sweetest letters a poor old fool ever read. The last one I got startedlike this: “ Forget thee? Not u ntil the earth forgets to re volve; when the stars forget to shine, when the rain forgets to fa ll, when the flowers forget to bloom, then, and not t ill then.’’ Three months later she was court ing a fellow with a wart on his nose and red hair on his head. Boys, never trust a g irl tor she w ill bunco yon. The young ladies are reminded that only a few more months of leap year are left. Don’t put off u n til tomorrow that which should be done today.

Two or three ladieswereworking w ith her and giving her whiskey. I went to my suit case and got my bottle of Cham berlain’s Colic, Cholera and D iarr hoea Remedy (I never travel with out it) ran to the water tank, put a double dose of the medicine in the glass, poured some water into it and stirred it w ith a pencil; then I had quite a time to get the ladies to let me give it to her. but I succeeded. I could at once see the effect and I worked w ith her, rubbing her hands, and in twenty minutes I gave her another dose. By this time we were almostinto Le Grande, where I was to leave the train. I gave the bottle to the husband to be used in case another dose should be needed, but by the time time the train ran into Le Grande she was all right, and I received the thanks of every passenger in the car.” For sale by C.

A dding to the sadness of the tragedy is the fact th at when a Mr. Bollinger, a great un cle of the young lady, viewed her lifeless body, he w alked off a short distauceand dropped dead from the shock.

But I can now surely km the pains and pangs of this deplorable disease.In Genzianyw With a Chemist in the City of Darmstadt—I found the last ingredient with WlUch Dr. Shoop’s Rheumatic Remedy was made » perfected, dependable prescription. Without that last ingredient, I successfully treated many, many cases of Rheumatism; but now, at last, it uniformly cures all curable cases of thisl heretofore much dreaded disease. Those sand-like granulaf wastes, found In Rheumatic Blood, seem todissolve and pass away under the action of this remedy as freely as does sugar when added to pure water. And then, when dissolved, these poisonous wastes freely pass from the system, and the cause of Rhemnktism is gone forever. There is now no zeal need—no actual excuse to suffer longer with* OOt help.

ED iTO R j-W hen I m ailed my resignation as postm aster to W ashington, on Sept. 1st, I hoped th at m y political enemies would allow me to retire w ithout pouring out their lies and slim e upon me, bnt it Beems th a t my action is bo foreign to their conception of the eternal fitness of things th a t they purpose hatching up all kinds of falsehoods, either w ith the inten tion of m isrepresenting m e, or try ing to m ake political capital out of m y resignation w ith the hope of dividing th e Bepnblieans in D avie county in the interest of them selves. So far as I am personally concerned, I do not have to con su lt the Democrats w hen, where or why I do certain things. I con sulted m y own personal wishes, and it’s no affair of th eirs. A s for the attem pt to use m y resignation for political effect, they are wel come to all the good it w ill do them , for from now until the polls close on the evening of Bovem ber 3id, I will be found in th e ranks doing m y best to roll up an increas ed R epublican m ajority in the county, and I especially appeal to every Bepublican friend I have in the county, to roll np their sleeves and do battle for th e party whose record in this county is one to be proud of, and whose management of D avie’s finances cannot be as sailed or equalled. On December 1st, 1896— 12 years ago—the De m ocratic commissioners turned over the county to the B epublican com missioners, headed by G. G . B ail ey, Esq., one of the finest finan cierB in the State, w ith a debt of nearly th irty thousand dollars, and today the county has money on hand sufficient to pay every ceDt it owes, and have a balance in the treasury. W ith such a record, is there any excuse or valid reason w hy the people of D avie county should w ant a change, or be m isled by a hungry set of pie hunters who, ii the county was turned over to them , would soon pile np another debt for the taxpayers to pay.

Indeed, the em inent wisdom of this nom ination w ill be realized throughout th e state.

That girl was a beauty but I dou’t want to discuss sheath gowns w ith any other girl. It makes me blush to think of a Bheath gown. T hat girl actually asked me if I thought her figure adapted to a sheath gown. Ito ld h e r yes, b u t how in the dickens did she expect me to know.

I didn’t go to Asheville on th at excursion last week, but the other boys and girls did, and the way thep held hands while going throu them holes was a sight. I heard th a t the boys and girls could not rest well in A sheville because the beds were so high—up in the air. One of the rooms was so sm all that one of the beds had to fall down to make room for the crowd. I am going on the next excursion th at passes through Mocksville, for there is as m uch fun on one ot them things as there is on a straw ride. One of the boys showed his knowledge by going into the post- office and trying to buy a can of sardines, while another got him a fish hook and tried to catch the fish th at play in the fountain on the square, so I was told. A t tw enty, when a man is young he thinks he knows it all; he likes to wag his active tongue and exer cise his gall; he struts atound in noble rage—the world is all his own; he laughs in scorn at the world of age, and IiBts to sell alone he wears a window in his eye to for a paint factory and a cheap vaudeville show, and who dress to go to church in richer colors and more gaudy attire than th at worn by a Spanish Senoretia to a bull fight.

Mr. E ditor:—W hen you took charge of The Record, Aug. I, 1907, I had you to publish a statem ent soon thereafter, setting forth the fact, th at while I owned the plant, I was no longer its editor, and you stated th at the paper would con tinue championing the cause of Re publicanism. For the eight years I edited the paper, I devoted consider able space during each campaign gratuitously to the county candi dates, advertising speakings and meetings, w ithout pay. As the pub lic knows, I was holding an office, and was not dependent upon the in come from the paper for my sup port.. The increased w ork of my office m ade it necessary for me to give up the paper, and I leased it to you, and it is patent to every think ing, reasonable man that you cannot run the paper unless you are given financial encouragem ent by the friends of the paper. I have done all I could to help you, and will .con tinue to give you all the assistance possible, and I w rite this letter for the purpose of calling the attention, of the Republicans of Davie county to the necessity of standing by you in your efforts to give them a paper. It takes money to run a. paper. I found th at out nine years ago. A great many are today owing me for the paper, a great deal of which I will never get, but I do hope the Republicans of the county will stand by you, and assist you in the battle for the party. The price of The Record, 50 cents per year, places it within the reach of all, and there is no reason why The Record should not have the support of every man in the county interested in good gov ernm ent and the building up of our town and county. . It is not neces sary for me to tell the people th at I have run the paper at a considerable financial sacrifice—in other words, I have lost money on the paper, and I know that the present editor, whc holds no office, and is looking to the paper for a support, cannot live on air and promises.

Heart Strength Heart Strength, or Heart Weakness, means Nerve Strength, or NerveWeakness—nothing more. Pos- ItIvely, not one weak heart in & hundred is, in .it self, actually diseased. It is almost always a hidden tiny little nerve that really is all at fault This obscure nerve—the Cardiac, or Heart Nerve —simply needs, and must have, more power, more stability, more controlling, more governing strength. Without that the Heart must continue to fail, and the stomach and kidneys also have these same controlling nerves.This clearly explains why, as a medicine, Br. ShooptS Bestorative has in the past done so much for weak and ailing Hearts. Er. Shoop first sought the cause of all this painful, palpitating, suffocating heart distress. Dr. Shoop’s Restorative—this popular prescription—is alone directed to these weak and wasting nerve centers. It builds; itatrengthens; it offers real, genuine heart help.I f you woidd have strong.

William Bryan will not be elected president, on November 3rd. P ut this in your pipe and smoke it,. Mr. Democrat. Read our ticket, which appears at the head of this column, and if you w ant good people to fill the various offices, vote the whole ticket on the 3rd day of November. We ask our subscribers to be len ient with us on account of the over abundance of advertising, and the scarcity of reading m atter. W e are trying to perfect arrangem ents to issue a larger paper. We have thought for a long time that the Nuisance and Corruptor, published at Raleigh by one Joseph- vs Daniels, of fried chicken fame, was the biggest lying sheet in the State, but the Lyington Dispatch, which hails from Lexington, is run ning the Corruptor a close race for that high honor. HOW ABOUT IT? Is the Mocksville Chair Co., pay ing the expense of running the county Democratic campaign? No dividend has been paid since 1906. The stockholders have a right to know. W hatis the m atter? Is it insolvent? A Stockholder. A MATTER OF CONSEQUENCE. The Observer will have to be ex cused from making w ar on Mr. J. ElwoodCox during the remaining weeks of tSis campaign; he is too good a man and too useful a citizen to w arrant it in trying to discredit him—athingit*couId not do, any how, in the eyes of those who know him. B utthis fact is being and ought to be brought to public atten tion: that if he were Governor he would have the appointment of the Stateboard of elections which ap points the county boards and they in turn the registrars. We have no doubt that Mr. Cox, if Governor, would appoint to the State board of elections men whom he thought hon- est and suitable, but a m ajority of them would of course be Republi cans and through them and their appointees in the counties the whole election machinery of- the State would be turned over to the Repub lican party. W edo not share the fear of some that this would result in the nullification of the constitu tional amendment, but it would not be a desirable condition and it should be obviated. Mr; Kitchin would ap point a Democratic board and thus the election machinery would remain as it should, in Democratic hands. This would be a sufficient reason if there were no other why he should be elected.—Charlotte Observer. The above article needs no com m ent at ou r hands._______ WHAT IS IT WORTH? “The Republicans have not said so, but you can take OUR WORD FOR IT th at they are depending on the anti-prohibition- vote in this county.—Moeksville Courier. Republicans are depending on Re publican votes to elect their ticket. The prohibition question was settled on the 26th day of May, and will go into effect Jan. 1st, 1909, and the Courier’s crowd told the people that it was a moral question, and parti- zan politics should not be taken into consideration. Then please tell us why the Courier, the great champ ion of prohibition, whose editor has been doing his best for the past few months to drink up all the surplus stock on hand before Jan. 1st, 1909, should be attem pting to drag the question in politics in this campaign? D oeshethink he can deceive and mislead the people of Davie county? Men who believe in temperance should practice w hat they preach. The editor of the C ourierhasfor the last two or three years placed tem perance articles every week on its front page, b u t if you will scan the pages of the Courier since its editor has been doing doing his best to place all the surplus spirits inside his capacious maw, the temperance prohibition articles have disappeared from the columns of the Courier. No, Mr. Courier, you can’t deceive or mislead Davie county Republi cans. Ih e y a re o n to your racket, and will bury you out of sight on November the 3rd, as usual. We advise you to do yourself no harm , possess yourself in patience, for “whatsoever a m an soweth, th at shall he also reap.” The harvest is on, and Republicans will garner the votes on Nov. 3rd, as of yore.

Smoke from the extensive forest fires burning in w idely separated districts of the eastern portion of the U nited States and Southern Canada, has enshrouded the entire section beneath a m urky pail, so heavy in some places as to obscure the sun, and through a wide area to interfere seriously w ith trans portation and various occupations of every day life. The haze is not confined to the land, the smoke banks extending well off the coast and enfold the routes of coastwise and trans- A tlantic shipping to some extent.
