OCTOBER NUMBER 13 THE GASH IS GOMING FROM Womee Work at NigM to Fk gaw BooseKlt Campalp IflIL FACTORY CONOITKMS. New York State Investigating Commit- tee pound Pale, Worn Women Work ing In Twins Manufacturing Concern Owned by the International Harves ter Company. Awful conditions have been found by the state factory inveSkgating com mittee of New York In ttfc mills of the Osborne Twine company, No. 3, a t Au burn. N. Y, owned by the Interna tional Harvester company, of which George W. Perkins, chief financial backer of Theodore Roosevelt In his scheme to ruin the Republican party. Is a director. “The appearance of the women workers In this plant,” said a member of the committee, “was very "dis heartening. They were worn and pale and their clothes, faces and hands were covered with oil and hemp doth. Many of these women, so called, are only children In age and they have to lug huge piles of hemp, weighing- 150 pounds each, across the floor, the load In some cases being bigger than the women themselves. In the spin ning room, where women are employed alone, to the exclusion of men, who would have to receive higher wages, the clatter of machinery is so fright ful that a voice below a shriek cannot be heard. The rooms are dark, though for no necessary cause, and no at tempt is made to remove the dust, which is kept In constant motion by the line shaftings Respite the require ments ot the law. This dnst is breathed continuously by the women, many of whom complain of chronic coughs and colds. The dust and dirt are so thick upon the clothes of the Mrls that at the noon hour—which in many cases consists of but a few ites-and at the close of the day’s oy'nlght’s labor, the girls have to eep each other clean with brooms.” It Is further stated that the custom t working the women all ritght Is permanent, married women being se lected for night work, ■ their hours kelng from Rundown until 6:30 o'clock In the morning. Of 400 women em- Ployed In the mills, 200 work all night When George W. Perkins was. asked by a New York Times reporter for an otplanatlon of the conditions In an establishment of which he is one. of the directors, he made, In part, tbe fol lowing remarkable reply: “This night Jrork has been rendered necessary largely because of the government’s PerfecUy unreasonable attitude toward urge corporations, which haB made It impossible for managers of large con cerns to know whether they were on foot or horseback, whether they could expand their plans to. keep up with Increasing demands or not.” The late Mark Twain Ih his brightest moments never uttered anything more Plmly humorous than the foregoing «Planatlon by George W. Perkins of »hy the company of which he is a di meter is working women all night hder the frightful conditions dlsclos- ® by the Xew York state factory In vestigating committee.

The facts as dug up by MajorBairdare arrang ed in readable shape. The twins were born Tn Siam in 1811 and on their travels in this country with Old John Robinson’s circus, reach ed the town of Salisbury. There a native of Surrey couty ‘got stuck’ on them aud they accepted an in vitation to go to his home on the Pish and Ararat rivers, in the counly mentioned. They were so pleased with the country that they decided to make it their home. We let the Major tell the rest: Bag invested all his money in negroes and Chang invested his in lands. Theywere unusually inter esting in every undertaking. But the war took away the slaves, and an equitable division was made of the lands. They built a comfor table home on the left bank of the Pish river, which they occupied until sometime just prior to the Civil war, - when Chang conceived the idea of getting married. They were great hunters, and in their wanderings, they had gone over into Wilkes where Chang saw the girl for whom he had been longing. He served notice on Eng of his in tention and gave the command to come and let us Visit the home of the Yates There was nothing for Eng to do -but to obey. Chang’s story of love fell upon a listening ear, and in due time a union was formed between him and Misa Yates. The household was now made to number three. • A year passed and Eng began to think:' The smiles that played up on the face of Chang were too much for Eng. He too must go and tell his story. Thefamily olthree had doubtless attracted much attention. “W ho is to be the wife of Eng?” It did not take Eng long to decide. Another of the Yates girh was left. The good qualities embodied in the oqe must be inherent in the other. So EDgsaid to Chang, ’‘Come, let me go a courting too.” How many visits Eng made before he accom plished his purpose, we are not t ild, but a little thought would suggest that they were not many . For the second time Eng and Chang stood in the Yates home before'the parson. The family was row made four. “But two women, though they be sisters, in one house is one too many. -- Another home must be built.” Abeautifui site was on the other side of the stream. An other home was built there for Eng. The question then came, “How shall we divide time between these two homes?” -A knotty question, but satisfactorily settled. Every Monday morning therj was a shift from the oae to the other rain or Bhine. Alternate weeks there was a home on the hanks of the Fish without Eng and Chang. The pass ing years brought children into thoae homes. Eng was the father in one, and Chang was the father in the other. How the discipline of the one accorded with the ideas Of the other we have not been able to learn. Doubtless each father controlled his own home, for it is known that each had a will of hiB own. Nine children came into either home. These have all grown -up, and are now living in the bouodsof Surry county. Among them are some of the most substan tial nea of the county. The" wife of Ghang is still living at the old old homestead, in good Health* with promise of many years. Major Baird learned . that the matter of cutting the binding that held them together received con sideration from the best talent of America and Europe. It was the opinion of all physicians consulted that they could-not—be cut apart and live. The connection was, vital. So they passed I hrough life; -They were men of very different temper aments. Each had. a will that ne ver failed to assert-‘itself. It-was a common thing Jor them to get-rntq very’animated discussions, .agree,; ing very frequently to disagree. Blpws were sometimes passed. A magistrate is still living in the county who had one arrested at the request of the other and tried for assau.lt.. A gne wsis imposed with the result that they went for days without speaking. The blood of the foreigners is distinct in every one of the chil dren. Black hair, dark eyes, brown complexion, typical ot their Eas tern birth. Theylived to rather an old age. They died in the year 1874. One was often sick without materially affecting the other. They were distinct personalities. Each had his own favorite diet. Both enjoyed comparatively-good health Occasions for a doctor was rare. The immediete cause of death is not stated. They retired early as was their habit. , Before the clear dawn of day Eng awoke and found Chang dead. A doctor from Mount Airy was,summoned in all possible haste. When he came he found the blood from the dead man bad coursed its way into the living one. Death was inevitable. So it was decided not to separate them. “Let them die as they have lived—-join ed together.” Their bodies were taken to Philadelphia, but were afterwards recovered by one of the sons and brought back to Surry where they are buried.

Natiqn through a Great South, . This is not needed. Each plank speaks for itself. -But you won’t find-aiiy of our planks inthe plat- forin of any political party. ^et how much more important is tite Southern Farming’s platform JusVthink a bit, and you will see ho# true is our statemont. For all’ the ,candidates for office might mi- racihnsly disappear,-congress and IegiGiatures might not ' meet for a couple of years, yet the United States and the world would go right along with scarcely a ripple. But let Southern farmers for a single seasojn fail to produce a surplus, or to majke a cotton crop, and the eco nomic'fabric of the whole Occident would be upset! Soil and seas, mine and forest, support the world. Betterfarming meaqs better living and better j times for all—and this means, also, that people shall “get into gear with nature,” or in tune with the Infijfte, and enjoy the harmony of body|.iuind and soul that is the realest; thing in this life. So we reckon pretty much all our folks down here will say amen to Southern Farming’s platform. Bow let’s all pitch in to work it out, for god.-helps those who help themselves! T hat it Not Politics a t all, but that will be the Economic .Regeneration of the'South. An inquisitive subscriber asked Agricultural Editor Nivan of At- lauta the question: “What are your politics?” Orange Judd Sou thern Farming frankly replies in words that should make every far mer ini this state sit up and take notice: 1. To make three bales of cot ton grow, where one grows now, 2. To make forage crops, grass es and pasture five times as good and Iff times' as profitable as at present. , - ! 3. To make tobacco, fruits, ve getables and other crops better in quantity, quality and.profit. 4. • To enable the South to make more and better corn, wheat, oats and other grain. 5. To pron&te improved live stock until the South exports to the rest of the TJnited States and to foreign countries a vast surplus of meats, butter, cheese, eggs, and manufactures therefrom. 6. To reform distribution! banking and currency ,so as to make universal more economic methods of marketing the products of Sou thern farms and factories, forests and mines, and in supplying our people’s consuming needs- 7. To wisely utilize the South’s natural resources so that they yield handsome profits at - present and yet be conserved for future gener ations. _ S. To improve the South’s high ways and railroads, rivers and har bors, until they are adequate to the needs of a mighty people, - 9. To improve our schools, un til every young persou in country or town may be trained in*efficien- cy, health and character :and .im bued with-that wisdom which is knowledge and the capacity to use ■it.". 10. To link more closely school and home,: farm: and factory, so that the one may more benefit the cliher.. 11 . To aid, -in these and -other ways, the South to have fourfold its present population* - each of whom Bhall enjoy ‘‘life, liberty and the pursuifccfJhappiness!' ^ 12.

Day after day, it seems, the WorldVhas been waiting with ears to the- windward for some point,' some virile, vital Expression from Its latest presidential jack out of the bor on questions of .the hour, some solid positive utterance by the candidate, which It could grab and lay about with as a campaign shilleltgi. It has- waited In vain. Rounde#\ periods of dreary drivel, pedagogical . common places that might have come out of a third reader and which bad abont as much relation to issues of the cam paign as “It is a sin Ho steal a pin” has* to Metropolitan opera, have been fed to curious crowds and to editors waiting with whetted pens for red hot meteors of inspiration. Disappointment ahd disgust are not confined to the World office. “ We asked you for bread and you gave, us a stone” Is paraphrased In Democratic sentiment by “We asked you for meat-and you gave us mush.” Nause ated with Wilson they turned to Mar shall :only to find him as aperient of vacudus platitudes as his coadjutor. It’s a hopeless appeal. As well try to Seize the .elusive tail of a greased pig at a county fair as expect 'to get anything definite out of Wilson. He was definite enough when he 'said in his “History of the. American Peo ple" that “the Chinese are more to be desired as workmen, if not as citizens," than “the coarse crew crowding In at eastern ports” —that is, immigrants from Europe. He was definite enough In saying In the same, book that con gress had “dealt very harshly” in passing the law excluding Chinese, from the United States. He. was defi nite, enough In denouncing immigrants' from Poland,'Hungary and Italy. ; Evidently Wilson can speak out if be wants to, and the inference is that be is afraid’ to. On the issue of a navy; powerful enough to defend -the interests and uphold the honor of the United States he Is silent for. fear of offending the Democratic majority in congress opposed to strengthening the navy. On the tariff be is, to quote an old comparison, “neither a man, nor a mouse, nor a long tailed rat,” but more like one of those ancient Egyp tian monstrosities carved on the mum my cases, with heads looking contrari wise.

He. is willing to slosh through a sea of-.bosb to-the White Hotlse, and now that be has the nomination be counts upon the world and the rest of ther'Whang- doodles to follow, whether they like his style or no t Perhaps they will, notwithstanding grimaces of ■ disgust and- protesting cries to speak ou t But the people—they want a man for president “ . - mm - Fortunes In Faces.

Is This You? . What is a home without a pa per?” A home without a news paper is no home at allr- It is a kind of dreary den—a rendezvous of bedbugs and fleas, where the in habitants live in blissful ignorance of what the world is doing. It is inhabited, by a class who do not know who is president or what he is president of—who never find out that a thing has happened until long after everyone else has forgot- tea it. The children grow up in rags and dirt, while the wife gen erally finds consolation in darning socks and'logging a pipe loaded with long, greeu tobacco and the man generally lives because he can’t die and he is to lazy to kill himself.

Cigarettes. It is the violation of the law. for a man or child to carry a pistol a- bont with him, bnt it is not a vio lation for a man to sell him a pis tol. That is one queer case. But the case against cigarettes is queer er. It is a violation of the law lor a dealer to sell cigarettes to minors but it is not against the law for minors to smoke them. In the first case the dealer helps to create law breakers by displaying in his win dows firearms which the child or man is prohibited from carrying" around with him. In the second case, it is the purchaser that helps to create law breakers by being permitted to buy with impunity what the storekeeper cannot sell without violating the law.

The dealer made a price of $70 to which the farmer object ed saying that he had purchased the same style and make of wagon many years before for $60. The dealer explained that the adyapee in the price was due to higher cost of materials, etc;, but the farmer was not convinced. After aIengthly argument it de veloped that the farmer ten years before had paid for the $60 wagon with 600 bushels of corn, corn at that time bringing- ten cents per bushel. «•1 will tell you what I will do, said the dealer. “You give me 600 bushels of corn for thip- $70 wagon and I will make yon a pres ent of the best reaper in my stock, your choice of surreys, and you can bring your wife down and I tfill. mate her a present of the best kitchen rauge-1 have in the place and will iit ber kitchen up com plete" with new fishes .and cooking utensils.

The following Is taken from an address delivered by Pro-1 fessor Woodrow 'Wilson before the tariff board Iu 1882. showing his views then on the Question of. the tariff and the distinct an-. » nouncement of his position as % a free trader, opposed to all tariffs except merely for the pur pose of raising revende: •‘But the danger .of imposing protective duties -is that when the poliey is once embarked upon it cannot be easily receded £ from.’ Protection is nothing , more than a bounty, and when J we offer bounties to m anufactnr- , ers they will e n te r into indus- J tries and build up interests and . when at a later daft we seek to ; overthrow this protective tariff < we m ust hurt somebody and-of J course there is objection. They « will say, “Thousands of men will \ be thrown out of employment < and hundreds of people will lose ] their capital/ This seems very j plausible; but I maintain th at \ m anufacturers are made better 1 m anufacturers whenever they , are thrown upon their own re- * sources and, left to the natural < competition of trade. J * * * •!.'*. i “Protection also hinders com- I meree immensely. The English 1 people do not send as many \ goods to this country as they j would if the duties were not so I much and in that way there is ] a restriction of commerce and i we are building up manufactor- ] ies 'here at the expense of com- < merce. We are holding our- ] selves aloof from foreign conn- < tries in effect and saying. ‘We J are sufficient to ourselves; we 1 wish to trade, not with England, ] but with each other.’ I main- i tain that it is. not only a per- ] nicious system, bnt a corrupt i system.” - ! By Commissioner G arland:^ < ' Q. “Are you advocating the re- | penl of all tariff laws?” • ' A. “Of all protective tariff ! laws; of establishing a tariff-for < revenue merely. It seems to.m e , very absurd to maintain that we ' shall have free trade between different portions of this country . and at the same time shut our selves out from free communica tion with other producing-coun tries of the world. If it is neces sary to impose' restrictive duties 3* on goods brought from abroad it would seem to me as a. m atter T of. loffie, necessary to Impose S similar restrictions on goods Y taken from one state of - this Union to another. T hat follows a_s a necessary consequence; thereJs no escape from I t” for Fletcher's HAS CHANGED AS CANDIDATE. Woodrow Wilson's Speeches Now Those of Office Seeker. . Scattered among the platitudes of Dr. Wilson’s speech of Acceptance are some truths. None is more significant than this: ■ ' “We stand In the presence of an awakened nation, im patient of partisan make believe;” Following which he makes believe that he is telling the voters of the coun try his position on the campaign issues. No one has yet been able to determine from a reading of-the speech precisely what that position is. -Some slight en lightenment comes from tim e to .time In his- later utterances, 11K6, for ex ample, the declaration the .other day that Tammany Is to he safe from his assaults; but none of it is satisfying. Dr. Wilson, in the preconvention ,days, was represented to the country as a scholarly gentleman, too lofty of mind: to practice the wiles of the pro fessional politician, too earnest In .the cause of good government to be aught but frank and fearless in his :expres- sion, too unselfish to .put private ambi tion above the public weal, too Idealis tic in character to truckle to the forces of evil in the- nation.

I also have a telegram from Mr. Craig referring this matter to the State Democratic executive committee and I beg to advise yon that at the meeting of the same, held in the city of Esleigh last night, yoor re quest for a joint canvass was re spectfully declined. “I herewith enclose,you copy;of the resolution nnanimousiy adopt ed by the committee. “Yours very truly, ‘Chas.

You have what you and your committee consider grave, cogent and weighty reasons for hot meet ing your opponent in joint debate; for turning your backs ou an hon ored political custom in this state. No subterfuge or evasion can save you, or obscure or becloud the facts Those reasons are told in a few words. They are that you and your committee are unanimously Qf the opinion that Ihe record of your party cannot stand the search ing light of a critical joint debate. Alone, you may indulge in high sounding phrases and glittering generalities; alone, you may talk about everything but' the record cl your party, you may not even men tion: the things it has done and the things it has left undone, and you doubtless would fail to call atten tion to the fact that there is no health in it. This comfortable, easy; and to the people deadly pace, you could not keep up in a joint debate.

Trusting that you will reconsider and join me in a list: of joint ap pointments, lam , - Sincerely, THOMAS SETTLE; The Industrious circulation ot the falsehood that President Taft Qireatened a veto of the Sulloway bill was one of the chief plays of his opponents and- worked some injury to bis popularity, as his adversaries had planned. That there was no truth In this every senator,-representative and other public man could have known If he cared to inquire. “Yet it was a good enough Morgan nil after the nomination.” Now these.: same men are with equal industry and untruth circulating the report that President Taft signed the act of May 11 most unwillingly and was .only coerced into it at the last moment Nothing could be more untrue. There had been an overwhelming popular demand for additional pension legislation. The people were most earnesLin. their wish that the veterans who had saved the nation should be properly cared for during the years that re mained to. them.- The national encampment of the Grand Army of the Re public'had asked for such legislation.; The remarkable fact of the indorsement of the Sulloway bill by tfee legislatures.;.?? .twenty-seven great states was an astonishing development of deptbnriff- Wiffe^endedYeeHng oriThsubjecE ' Could any president be expected to disregard such a manifestation? Cer tainly not William H; Taft, whose great heart has always appreciated the service of the veterans and who has ever been quickly responsive to the popu lar will. ~ , No one doubted.at the beginning of congress that he Intended to approve a. pension UiL This knowledge had to be used with the utmost discretion, how ever. The presidential campaign was opening. There was a general expecta tion that the Democrats would make a strong effort to “put the president and* the senate In a hole” on the pension question. That fear was not allayed until within a few days of the passage of the act of May IL This required the greatest circumspection on the part of the president and his friends. But as soon as the act of . May 11 began to take shape in the senate and months before it actually passed there was no real doubt that the president would sign the bill which Would be finally formulated. At the In vitation of senators I was a constant visitor at the capitol while the Mil was going through its various stages. I wad also made a means of' communication with the members of the Invalid pensions committee of the house. With me went most frequently Past Conmmnder In Chief John P.. King, less frequently Past Commander Slaybaugh of Pctomac, Commander E. S. Godfrey, Arizona; Commander Granville C. Fisfre, Massachusetts; Com mander N. H. Kingman, South Dakota; Commander iN. P. Kingsley, Pennsyl vania,, and other prominent comrades who happened! to "be in the city and whom the senators wanted to see and counsel with. ■ : - We met Senators Crane, McCumber, CurQs, Smootr Burnham and others of the president's closest friends and advisers. They w«ne confident in their as surances that the president wonld sign the bilL The -domrades named felt no doubt of the result at least two.-months before the bill /was signed. As we all know, President Taft put himself to great! personal inconvenience in order to sign the biliand let it begin at once its beneucence to the veterans. The bill was hot ready for his signature when he left for Princeton, N. J. He made the Journey back to Washington expressly to slgni the bill. He reached the White House a. little after U p. m., Saturday, May 111, affixed his signature seven minutes before midnight and bad to leave Washftagton again the n o t day;’ Of these facts. I was personally cognizant, as I was present-when the hill was signed. JOBDN M’BLROY, > F- Editor JNaQonaI Tribune, • I fully concur in the foregoing. There Is absolutely no truth In the statement that the president wag op- posed to any pension bill. On the contrary, we wexe assured, as stated above, that, he would-give his approval to the bill when finally passed, which yras evidenced by his hasty return to Washington for the purpose. - , JOHN B.

The registration books are now open in Ihe various townships. If you want to vote, and haven’t regis tered, better do so at once, as the books close Oct. 26th. It seems that for some reason the Chairman will not call a Senatorial Gonvention ior this district. Anew chairman should be put in who will attend to his business. We have the morning train to Charlotte after howling five year? for it, and now we want a Building and Loan Association, so that our people may own their ov.n hom<s Let’s all get together and pull for it. The Record is in favor of good roads and a dog law, despite the fact that many of our best citizens and office holders are opposed to them. We favor a bond issue of a sufficient amount to make < very public road in the county a good road. We are trying to perfect arrange ments whereby the Democratic, Re publican and Socialist candidates for the Legislature may get together and make a joint canvass of the county, with three such campaigners in the field there would be something doing. The Record is in the habit of say ing just about what it wants to, without consulting any man as to whom it should boost and as to whcm it should roast. We mean to contin ue this habit, even should we be compelled to lose a few o£ oar sub scribers. Mr. Bryan savs it is probable that Woodrow Wilson will carry every State in the Union. Wehave always considered Bryan a conscientious, truthful man, but in the future we shall add salt to everything he put? forth. Mr. Wilson cannot carry en- ' ough states to be eleetsd president. The Democrats have got to meet again in Raleigh and decide once more on “wbat is a Democrat.” The decision they rendered a short while ago to the effect that a Democrat was a man who vot'd ti e ticket straight from constable to president, didn’t seem to take well among the boys who are in the habit of scratch ing their'tickets. It has baen reported to us tha* Judge Cook criticised the papers for criticising him, while holding court here last week. So far as we have been able to learn, no one has criti cised the Judge.

I.—Colonel Roose velt ended his 10,000 mile trans c-onMnential campaign tour here to night witlfan address to more than 7.01)0 people, making his last ap peil in North Carolina for the principles of the Progressive party ^The Progressive presidential can TC 1 who ho doubt believes he is much larger than Jonah when he swallowed the whale. In Mayhe was for Roosevelt and all that he represented, and now he stands at the head of the party in Davie, and poses - as a Republican. Has he so soon deserted the newborn party which he “jinea” in the lovely month of May. Has he lost faith in the possibility of Teddy being able to reward his friends and punish bis enemies after the 4th of next March? Does he believe that Mr. Taft may, by some remote possibility be elected and hand out to.eim, (the distinguished coun ty chairman) the Mocksville postofflee, or to one of his near kinsfolk or devoted henchmen? I can sse him now, though far removed from the “impending crisis, as he rises before an audience of his ad mirers, holding to the back of two chairs, and rolling his eyes heavenward, as he casts a loving glance at his master and maker, and I can hear his sweet, small voice as he declares, “I am munarch oi all I survey. My right there is none to dispute; (Ed’s in the mountains.) From the center all round to thd sea; I ami- lord of the whole darned shoot,” with all of the nominees thrown in for boot, and they will all give me a part of the “lute,” lwillnowtakfe awee smali d;ink, and when it has acted, will prooceed to think, and conclude this article. I: shall await with much anxiety upon the report of a friend, whom I have commissioned}, to find out if even the officeholders,: --nig gers” and Democrats of Davie have . de serted the standard of President Taft and repudiated the time-honored principles of the grand old Republican party, before I decide to launch my boom for the. legis lature; like the M e of Sodom and Gomor- row, if there be just one true Republican left. I can stand the humiliation of run ning, with a bare possibility of being elec ted by an overwhelming majority. Is it possible, Mr. Editor, that any man nom iaated on the 28th of September at Mocksville, is going to pose before the people as a republican, and ask for tiieir votes, and then go to . the election and vote the Progressive party ticket, and chus aid and give comfort to the enemies of the Republican party, who are more determined to defeat president Taft than they are to defeat Woodrow Wilson? Can a man on the ticket nominated expeci me to vote for and support a wolf in sheep's clothing? How do the true Re publicans in Davie like the prospect 0! being lead in this fight by Turner Grant, who is an enemy of the party that has honored him with 4 terms in the legisla ture, and who denounced President Taft, who , cwo years ago handed him out a two thousand dollar Federal: job?. Can they hope or expect: success at i je polls' under s Jch conditions? Is the Republican party dead or dying? Not much, only passing thiough a periodical upheave! of the dis-_ contented office hunters, who would :pull down the temple of ltfeerty if it only puts a few dollars in their filthy pockets. No. The Republican party, with a glorious past, and a future {9egnant . with great possibilities for the future of our country, is going to live on and survive the at tacks, abuse of the avarious lion hunter recently from the juugles of Africa, where he was evidently stung by seme vile, ac cursed insect, whose poison has so in fected his anatomy to stich an extent that he has spent the past two or more years on a wild and crazy rampage of abuse, dragging the great and honorable office ol yresident down into the mire and filth of a ward politician. Washington, the fath er of his country, fought, a great war and established the greatest free and repre sentative Government on earth, he re fused to be crowned as king, he estab lished the wise preceflerit of two terms for president, but Teddy the terrible would destroy the last vestage "of free govern ment, and he would gladly wear ‘the crown .of a despotic king, and involve this government in wars and bloodshed, if by so doing he could satiate his inordinate ambition to -rule. Yes' the Republican party will live, it will survive tlia attacks of the-.“wild man from Africa," and ,will be governing and making good laws which will give prosperity and good prices to the farmers and laborers when “Teddy Rosen- felt” is dead, detested and forgotten. Only let us stand by our guns, stay in the ship until the storm has passed over, and the great common people, the bone and sinew of our country have regained their reason, and can dispassionately consider great and momentus qdestions of State, far removed from the insane clamor of a crazed visionary dreamer with an -un- qilenchable thirst for office and power. I know, not, and I care not what others may do, but for me, lshall abide in the ship, believing and hoping that the s'orm will soon pass, and with Taft at the helm, peace and prosperity,, good prices and good times'wiU continue. Should I decide to allow my name to go before tke people of Davie to represent them, I will make it known in a future letter, and I will come down from the mountains, and at least try to arouse the true and tried Court Proceedings. The following are among the most im portant cases disposed of at court last week: Milford Dent, larceny and receiving, 4 months on roads. s George Smith, c. c. w.. $15 and costs Jacob FIynt1 Manslaughter. 4 months in jail. Dixie Walls, larceny and receiving, 5 years on roads. John Scott, larceny and receiving. 3 years on roads. Clarence Hodge, larceny and receiving, oie year in penitentiary.

Roosevelt. That b-sing true in May, there * no lon ger any Republican party in Davie, for if my recollection serves roe. right, the Re publicans have never polled more than about 1,300 votes in the county, and when you deduct;; 14j)0 from 1300 you have wiped ottt the Republican party^ and pas&> ed it over to the Progressive or BullMoose party, which is and has been-so ably and successfully represented nnd controlled by the “little Oracle” and would-be boss. non-paftizan manner, and if I can con vince the legislature that certain men in Davie are entitled to pensions, for. the great and valuable services they have performed in office, in and above ' the emoluments they have already received, I will do mv best to “give them an honor able discharge and a pension for life.

Washington, Sept. 23.—A. decis ion was practically reached by President Taft today soon to issne :tn executive order placing all fourth class postmasters in the Uc* Ited States in the classified service. Thisorder relieving 36,038 post masters from the im eitaiuiy of ] olitical appointment, will be one ol the most far-reaching orders ev er issued as effecting the civil ser vice.

Some time ago we answered Judge Clark’s question “ What is a Democrat!” How the Democrat ic State committee is to say “ who is a Democrat.” If the committee will pardon us for “butting in.” we will tell tnem “ who is a Deme- crat.” A Democrat is an animal who will vote the pa: t j ticket, knowing at the same lime that it will bankrupt his country, State, nation, and send his wife and chill dren to the public “soup houses” in order that they may keep soul an I body together, and he himself tramp the railways and highways hunting work and beggiug bread.

IIESIiLI OF INVESTiGAM State Department, at 'the President's Direction, Has Looked Into the Sye- tem In Vogue In Europe—It Would.. Mean Low Rates and Easy Terms For Repayment. !Tiie state department’s Investiga tion of European systems of co-opera-. jlye credit has now reached the second Btage in which a study ls made of the mortgage bond societies aid the mort gage banks. It is expected that this Js the form of co-operative fCredit which, under one plan or another, will be proposed for adoption In the United States In connection with President Taft’s efforts to extend this assistance to the American farmer. As compared to lie present Ameri can system of farm land loans this form of co-operative credit would ac complish two things, for the farmer: First.—It would permit him to repay bis loan through an easy system of amortization extending over a long pe riod of years arid would remove', effec tively the menace of foreclosure or renewal which hangs like the sword of Damocles over the head of any bor rower from a private individual under a short time mortgage.' ’■ s, < Second.—It !would unlock the doers of the great; money centers to tiie farmer of th« remotest regions and give a security to the.

What it would mean in more specific terms' to the American farm er can be easfily seen In a comparison of conditions in Germany or France and in the United States. Here is the statement of < a dealer, in land mort gages in our] southwest, made a t a meeting in Kew York city. The speaker was ^describing the business of a company /financed by British cap ital which makes mortgage' loans on forms in the southwestern states: . "We have been loaning money at 8, 9 and 10 per (sent. I loaned money .In; the Panhandle twenty-seven years ago’ and for the first*.. three or four years- never got less than 3 per cent a month. That is Incident1 to a new country. Now our bank rate> is 10 per cent Our land loans that w e have been making the first, year or so through that sec tion of the countr y have been made on an 8 or 9 per ce nt basis. However, I am very frank t<» say that I think the rates ought.,to, come down and that we ought to be able'to get .money from that section <k the country at 6 or 7 per cent.” s In comparison witbithis statement the' Credit Fonder of iterance is able to loan monev on farm! lands at 4.3 per cent and the GernrtKn societies and hanks at about 4 or '4.5 per cent. As the speaker quoted ■ above says, the Mgh rate of interest. In this country Is probably to a large extent due to. the fact that It is a nfrtv country and'that money here, is mare ■ actively employed. Jt Is doubtful whether, erea with the sdoptlon of the European machinery; the interest rates on., mortgages could he brought down as Sow In the United states as'they are In either France or Germany, it is the opinion of no less an authority than Charles A. Conant however , that they could be brought down -'to 5 per cent ■ A-mortgage at ® Per cent with the advantage to the farmcy.. of repaying his loan little by little through an unburdensome plan °t amortization might be accepted as the 'sum total of benefit to be expected ”5’ the American farmer from the Jfaption of some such system—as, for “ Stance, the German mortgage bank Plan.

This pape.r has nevi-r, to its knowledge, given any one license to believe that it wonld or could run a “Questions and Answers” department, but ou the other hand it has never attempted to shirk re sponsibility, and it will not do so now. A young lady, unknown to the editor, has sept in the following touching appeal: ‘“Dear Editor: I am engaged to a very nice young man who chews to! accO. I love him. but.he won’t qu t chewing—pnd I haie the taste ofifc. W onldyon advise me to marry him, or not!” This is a very serious affair. Most dcidedly I would HOT advise you to marry him. Furthermore I can heartily second yoor antipathy tb the the taste of second hand Browns mule. Many otherwise perfectly good love affairs have been snuffed out by tobacco. There was once a- yonng man named Carl who chewed tobcoap and loved a young lady—both very hard and both at the some time. He used to court her with an over grown chew in oue side of his face, and talk out of the Other side. While honeyed words dripped from one corner of his month good rich essence of tobacco leafdripped from the other comer. The more ar dent the young fellow became, the more enthusiasticly he chewed, and ivhien hie got wound up on his pro posal he shed juice like a sprin • kling cart. , Nevertheless, the girl accepted •him, chaw and all, for bette.t or for worse, and probably wonld have married Lim if it haderr^fc been for.' her Pa. : It happened this way. It was summer time, aud the young folks sat in the parlor, close to a window; Pa leaned back in a chair against •i tree outside, listening to their yumyumming, It was a very dark night.and neither the girl nor Carl knew that pa was on the job. Carl was repeating, for the .*er- en-hnndredtli time that evening hat He loved her like a nmley cow loves salt, and with each word he chomped down on his quid. Be fore he had finished his first sen tence hie mouth was running over and he leaned his head back tp hold the tide. Still Ik talked on, his words coming rather splashy md thick. Eis mouth was open and he had quit trying to chew. He was nearly , drowned when at length the littie oi^tion w&s finish* ed, and with a- c.e?p.%long-diawn dgh of relief he turiiSdhis Hooded jaws toward the window, pickered up and let’er fly. Pa had been working hard !that day and he was sleepy. It was past ilia bedtime, aoyway. Exactly at tlie same time Garl looseil that flood from out his face, Pa turned towai d the window, shut his eyes, Stfcetcl* ed out his arms and yawned. Of course it wasn’t Carl’s fault, jnd the old man had no business tSieie'auyway, especially with his month open. But it goes to .show that trouble will follow a chaw. There- was another paof a yonug man who told his sweet heart’s youngest brother that to bacco chewing would make..whis kers grow on bis face. The ;boy boy tried, but swaliowed thejiiice.

Hilles, chairman of 5 j* the Republican national commit' tee, has issued the following: V At this time, when the negroes $ throughout the United States are j celebrating in various ways the 4 . fiftieth anniversary of the first * proclamation of emancipation, and when the Democratic candi date for thepresldency, Woodrow Wilson, is appealing to the peo ple of the western states to sup- ' port 'him,- it Is fitting that the chaiixnan of the political commit tee organized to further the cause of the candidates of the Repub- Iicaijj.party for president and vice president should call attention to an expression, of opinion by Gov ernor Wilson, at a period in his £ career when possibly he never $ dreamed of being a candidate for X a political office.' ■ J. That expression of opinion was 4. made in his capacity of historian, J and H adds to the cumulative tes timony that be was until he be- camie' a candidate and that he is T now un-American In his views of j pubiic questions and at heart. ^ contemptuous of more than one j class of American citizens and X out.of sympathy with their aims, + their purposes and their beliefs. I It was on Sept. 22. 1862, that •f President Lincoln issued a proc- X laniation giving formal notice j tiiat unless the southern states returned to their allegiance to the Union within a hundred days lie would declare the slaves with in their borders free, and it was on the 1st of January, 1803, fol- X lowing, that a definite proclama- T tiOn of emancipation was issued, a Of this crowning event of the ca- T of the immortal Lincoln, 4! .j. ,.oodrow Wilson says In his •j* "History of the American Peo- X pie,” written forty years after- J ward: I “The proclamation when it I came was no law. but only his $ .(Lincoln-si deliberate declaration jof -policy for himself and for his •: [Jarty, aud changed, as he meant ^thiiti it. should ■ change, the whole -a^^-th eTstrugg!ktw4 ^_i)olitlcs as well.” : - . v It is safe to say that not even the most! radical unreconstructed southern man would attribute to Lincoln this motive which it re mained for the historian Wood row Wilson alone .to- discover, that Uncoln abolished slavery * to further his own political ambi- T dons and those of. bis political party. The statement adds proof to much already at hand that Woodrow Wilson forty years aft- ' er the war was and presumably still is devoid of sympathy for the motive and results of the civil war. The quotation from the Demo cratic candidate’s writings proves- that he is not a reliable historian nor a fair commentator. Itgoes to show what has been often ^as serted, that Governor Wilson, is not at heart an admirer of or a believer in American institutions, as his other writings and speech es show that he is not a eulogists- of American industries nor a de fender of . American labor. He continuously slanders millions of adopted citizens from abroad who have become good Ameri- , cans. He sne'ere at. trade unions. X and apparently he-would if --he X could close every American mill S and buy-in foreign markets, be- X cause in the. first place he is an ? aristocrat born and bred JtiuV be- T cause he wants the American ? people. to buy' wliete they can J buy the cheapest Everything that can be learned. about Governor Wilson from Iiis X writings, from his speeches aud “ from, his manner of living indi cate that he is not the type of man who can successfully, appeal for the support of the American people.

FOR VICE-PRESIDENT:' JAMES SCHOOLCRAFT SHERMAN AN APOLOGY. We feel that our leaders are due an apology for the small amount of ■ local matter in this issue. At the lastmoment wewere flooded with ads, which could not well be left over. Our next issue will be better. .Our ; ads this week make very interesting reading matter._________ If you haven’t registered, better do to at once if you want to vote this fail. . - - No, Pauline, the County Commis sioners were not arrested and placed in jail for not building a new county home. _______. Politics is beginning to liven up in Davie county. The various candi dates are busy shaking bands, and by the time the moon fulls again it will be dangerous to travel the public ri ads a"ter dark. does mftfefor the town and county than any other agency. The outsid ers who read pu#papei% and there are hundreds of Htemi are led to believe that this town has but few business houses and no factories, hotels, lawyers, doctors, insur ance men and' real estate dealers, banks, livery:stables, etc The' Re cord can live without any Moeksvil.e advertising better than the mer- ch nts here can dive without using the paper. The merchante are los ing thousands of dollars every year by not putting fortn an effort to keep the trade at home. The people are leaving the county to trade with business men who want their trade bad enough to ask for it. It is not our fault that they are trading else where. We are carrying out of town advertising because the home mer chants will not use the space which we are compelled to sell to earn a- living. Gentlemen, the proposition is up to you. -,We have done our part. Dear Mr. Editor:-^) ur convention is over, and as I expected, the boss ring crOwd rah roughshod over our good people again, but see what happens when the chilling night of Nov. 5th;draws her curtains down over old Davie. Elverv person I have heard express: themselves, say they won’t support' that old crowd, or any man that is for them. I have kept, my eyes open, how see how far I miss it. A Voter. One of our subscribers remarked the other day that farmers used to hobble :h-ep to keep them from jumping, but now the dressmakers were hobbling the ladies, but. he didn’t know whether it was for tie same purpose or not The Record is a Republican paper and its editor isa Republican, having naver voted a Democratic ticket in his life, but. we have always reserv ed the right to scratch any man whom we could not conscientiously vote for, and we don’t propose to begin at this date to swallow everything that is thrown at us The editor of The Record is not responsible for the views of its coi- respondents. Sometimes we agree with them, and sometimes we do not. But our columns are open 1 to our subscribers, and we are not ar fraid to publish their views on any subject. We are not printing tnis paper to suit one taste but that of cur subscribers. When you have to reach down in jeans and scrape out ali of your cot ton money to pay for your tax this fall, remember that it is the Demo cratic party who are responsible for your high taxes, A Democratic Ie gislature appointed a tax assessor for Davie county at a salary of $4 per day to do nothing but draw his breath and his salary. The result is that taxes are higher this year than ever, and had to be raised- so that ths public schools in the county could be run for four months. If you care to see yofflr taxes keep going sky ward, just continue to vote the De mocratic ticket. - A good many people ask us why .we don’t boost our home town more. Itis mightyhard to boost a town that don’t want to bex boosted. A lady remarked to us recently that it was a shame the way our people Went to other towns to buy goods thev could purchase here. The reas on is plain. The merchants in other towns advertise, while our business men are as afraid of printers ink as they are of the devil, or so it seems from the small amount of advertising they do in the local papers. We talked to several merchants recently about advertising, but they refused to take any space in their local paper. We went to an adjoining town, and secured a large ad from a man ■ who wants our people to'trade, with him It is hard for us to beg our people to come to town and trade with set of men who don’t appreciate their business enough to ask them for their patronage, and we are not gc mg'to insist on them doing so. We have boosted up the town since the we moved here over five years ago. but the boosting is going to be limited m the future, to the people who appreciate it. There are a: few business houses in town who adver- t se, for which we are thankful, bat the great bulk, of our business men do not contribute one penny to the su_ port of their ccunty pap -r, which Birthday Dinner Near Fork.

VALUE OF HES DiPLOMAGY Not Since the Civil War Have the American People Had Greater Rea son to Congratulate Themselves on Having the Right Man In the Right Place at the Vital Moment. The American people never - since I860 have had greater reason to con gratulate themselves on having the light man in the right place than they have in the fact that William Howard Taft is president of the United States. When Mr. Taft signed the Pauama canal bill he upheld with a majesty worthy of the cause the right of the American people to attend to their own affairs at the same time that he confronted and was fully aware that he confronted a most difficult interna tional issue for which he was in no wise responsible. It is easy to suppose what Mr. Taft’s predecessor would have done under similar conditions. One can hear the bang and whiz and sputter, like the start of a wireless message across the Atlantic, hurling frantic defiance here and there and everywhere getting ev erybody mad, making foreign resent ment more acute than before and an amiable adjustment well nigh impossi ble.President Taft’s high standing as diplomat and statesman, his well known reputation for calm and" digni fied reasoning, his mastery of the prin ciples of international law, of the ob- ‘ ligations of treaties and the power of an independent people to supersede a treaty when it is found to infringe upon their national rights give assur ance that the crisis, affecting as it does the honor of the nation and its fidelity to its solemn engagements, will be dealt with in a manner be fitting the American republic and satis factory to the civilized world. Foreign nations know that President Taft can be trusted to do what is fair and just, that his patriotism is as broad as it is pure and that no hunger for spread eagle notoriety will vitiate his judgment. And every American, whatsoever his party,knows in his heart of hearts that the national interests, the national honor, the national tuture —so far as he shall be permitted to control that future—are safe In me charge of William Howard Taft TAFT GOOD TIMES. A Good Osal More Substantial Than Wilson Promises. - There was an old song, a favorite In the days gone by, with the refrain, “Hard times come again no more!” AVere it not for the dark cloud of ,Democratic free trade hovering above the horizon and the possibility of Wil son for president, with a cabinet of mossbaeks from the south, with their heels on the cabinet table and telling each other bow ipuch better things wore “before the wah,” Americans might he singing that refrain with zest and glee today, for from all parts of the Union cemes assurance of better times than for years past, of pressing demands for goods of all kinds, abundant employment and ac tive and profitable trade. The large cities are thronged with buyers, and there is-pleuty- of evidence that store keepers, big and small, in city and village and at the crossroads, have money to spend—and mean to spend it. How different four years ago! The country was still in the doldrums—not yet emerged from the Roosevelt panic of 1907. The nation was looking for ward with hope and faith to the elec tion of President Taft, then already recognized as oue of Ahe world’s great est statesmen, safe, sane, broad minded, with an intellectual grasp equal to the mighty task before him and an unsel fish devotion to the welfare of all his fellow citizens. Tbe nation's faith and hope in President Taft were not misplaced. Gradually and surely the country has come out of distrust and despair into the realization and enjoyment of ever growing prosperity. Business has re covered confidence, labor finds profit able employment, and in some parts the demand for labor at good wages is greater than the supply. Presideut Taft has made good. Hard times have gone, never to return—pro vided Taft is re-elected and allowed to give the country four-years more of sanity, safety and security. The frantic efforts of his predecessor to get a chance to give the country another taste of 1907 excite no alarm —the American memory is not short enough for that. But another gener ation has grown to manhood and the ballot since the last calamitous ex perience of Democratic low tariff In 3S94-7;jand specious and illusive free trade arguments are appealing to ears lhat never heard them before. There is every reason to believe, however, that the sunshine of Taft’s prosperity will clear the beclouded sky, dissipate the mist of AViison free trade, and enable the yo.nnger voters to per- < eive. as their elders know by ex perience, the folly of exchanging good times for conditions that in the past have brought only business collapse and general hardship and depression ,for ,everybody and loss of Opportunity. Don’t Suffer! -1 had been troubled, a little, for nearly 7 years,” Avrites Mrs. L Fincher, in a letter from Peavy, Ala., “but I was. not taken down, until March, when I went to bed and had to have a doctor.

The answer is that Cardui is successful, because it is composed of scientific ingredients, that act curativeiy on the womanly system. It is a medicine for women, and for women only. It builds, strengthens, and restores weak and ailing women, to health and happiness. If you suffer like Mrs. Fincher did, take Cardui. It will surely do for you, what it did fbr her.

President'-Taft, when In New York, Sept 24, gave a long interview to the newspapers In which he discussed fully tbe campaign issues. This is the interview in part: “Mr. President, havq_you visited the ■Chamber of Horrors’ in TJnion squape, where the burdens upon living under the high tariff are illustrated?” “No, but a New York friend- told me a little incident In regard to it worth* remembering. According to the story told me, the exhibition lndudes a; num ber of articles of clothing tagged, with the prices and an alleged statement.of what the articles would cost witihthe tariff duties deducted. I understand that a number of establishments !,,en gaged In the manufacture of clothing are situated in the neighborhood, and n workingman, evidently from one* of those establishments, strolled/at the noon hour into tbe exhibition. /Looking about him, he noticed a coat hearing a price tag. and indicating whatj the cost of the coat would be without, a tariff duty. *lfhy,’ he remarked, ’that would Iiring the prlce-of tbe coat lomrnr than wliat I get for making one. /At that rate where would I come ta?*\ It is hardly necessary to say that he/ would not ‘come In’ at all. unless wiping to work for one-half to one-fifth1 of his present pay for making a coat. \ “The policy of the Republican party is not to shut out foreign mafhufac- tures, but to foster domestic makiufac- tures and to keep the American' work ingman employed. “The tariff should be revisedcno far as may be necessary to keep prices from being exorbitant, so that., as I have explained in. my speech of ac ceptance, the manufacturer shall' se cure only enough protection to pay>tbe scale of high wages which, obtaina. and ought to obtain in this country, land secure a reasonable profit.” "What do yon think, Mr. President, of the proposal of the third teem party to control the trusts through) federal Incorporation and regulation?”, “It would create the most mjonstrous monopoly of power In the hifetory of the world—a power as much' greater,, as much more autocratic, than that of a Caesar or a Napoleon, as the business interests of the twentieth century are greater, more dominant and'farreach- iug than were those of 2,000 or 100 years ago. “The Payne law has had no more to ®* with advancing the cost of. living than the latest Atlantic 'cable IAriff.: Cu the contrary, it has enabled the American worker to meet the cost of living and maintain bis family in comfort. ''Dnder the operation of that law Prosperity has been gradually restored 8loce the panic of 1907.

Mr. President, as an issue in this campaign?” . “I regard the-maintenance of an in dependent judiciary as a supreme is sue. and I thoroughly agree with the American Bar association that the re call applied to judges would tend to deprive the public of judges of ability, character, high sense of duty and a due regard to enlightened public senti ment and that such a judiciary is ab solutely necessary to the existence of a constitutional democracy." ,“ What are your views.

Industry is operating at high pressure, general business is pros perous, and there is a scarcity of labor everywhere. . Two acts providing sa'fety for rail way employees and proper.inspection of appliances have been passed. The federal mining bureau for re ducing the dangers to workmen has been established. A children’s bureau to minimize in-- fant mortali% and reduce child em ployment In 'factories has been or ganized. . . Pensions for Union veterans of the war of the rebellion have been broad ened and increased. White slavery - has been outlawed and checked. Our trade with foreign nations has been enormously increased, particular ly in iron and steel manufactures. Congress has made the contract be tween railroads and their employees more favorable to the latter. Shippers by rail and patrons of ex press, telegraph and telephone compa nies are assured just rates by reason of. additional authority conferred upon the interstate commerce commission. ./The eight hour taw on government work has been extended to include contract supplies. - Practice In the federal courts has been simplified in the interest of all litigants, which will relieve particular- Iy the poor suitor. /,Postal savings banks have been es tablished, to the great convenience of persons who formerly hoarded their surplus. Provision has,been made for the par- cels post, which will begin operations Jan. I. These are among, the achievements of three years of Taft. No. other admin istration withih the same brief limit has accomplished so many substantial benefits to the people. Why make a change, involving widespread upheaval of business, when every physical and material condition is favorable?—From HQf-. rieburg (Pa.) Telegram. "I suffered five years,’with awful pains, due to woman ly troubles,” writes Mrs. M. D. McPherson, from Chad- boum, N. €. J1They grew worse, till I would often faint I could not walk at all, and I had an awful hurting in my side; also a headache and a backache. I gave, up and thought I would die, but my husband urged me to . try Cardui, so, I began, and the first bottle helped me- By the time the third bottle was used, I couH do all ihy work. AU the people around here said I woiild die, but Cardui relieved me.” For more than 50 years, Cardui has been relieving woman’s ,sufferings, and making weak women strong and well.

TERMS OF SUBSCRIPTION: One Year, in Advance.......................50c Six Months, in Advance..................,.25c WEDNESDAY, OCTOBEPv 23 ’12 FOR PRESIDENT: WILLIAM HOWARD TAFT. FOR VICE-PRESIDENT: JAMES SCHOOLCRAFT SHERMAN The editor of The Record has been a Republican too long to be read out of the party by two or three pie- hunting men. The court house is a public build ing, despite the fact that-a few men have lived in it so long that they think it belongs to them. The Record has managed to live and pay its just debts without any assistance from a few of the men who are trying to run the county. A vote for Woodrow Wilson means a vote to close down our mills and factories and- open our doors to pau per made goods from foreign coun tries. And some of the very Democrats who cussed Cleveland the loudest are now howling for Wilson, but if Wil son is elected the chances are you will hear ’em cuss some more. Why did the International Harvest er Co.', give nearly $80,000 to help secure the nomination of Woodrow- Wilson? Will some Democratic trust- busting paper please answer. The Record editor is a Republican from principle, and not for pie, and will be found battling for what he believes to be right after the pie hunters have all departed into new parties looking for big jobs witli bigger salaries. Truth of the matter is, most of the Democrats who vote the ticket, do so with the understanding that the rest of the American people have got more sense than to allow a Dem ocrat to be elected to the Presidency but this is one time they better take no chances. It is harder to read us out of- the Republican party than it is to hold d o w n a $2,000 job under a Republ- can adminstration. Talking about hard times you just wait until Doc. Wilson' gets in the White House and he will show vou the way to the soup houses in a rush. Wliither Are We Drifting? Mr. Editor:—Where are we at, and how come? r I have just learned that A. T. Grant, Jr., of Mocksville, has been nominated for the Stale Senate on the Republican ticket. Is this the same Grant who made a speech last May in the court house and'said that. “Only the officehold- The Youth’s Companion For 1912. The Youth's Companion appeals to eve ry interest of familv'life, from housekeep ing to atheletics.

The people want to ktiovv who they wji[ Jje foun<j jn The Companion’s an- are voting for. W hither are we drifting? A Rep jb lic a n . Letters have been mailed to all the factories in England, begging for a contribution to help elect Wil son president. With free trade and an open port for the cheap pauper labor of Great Britain, our mills and factories would stand a poor chance of doing any business. A friend on Route 3, writes us a letterfor publication but fails to sign his name. Amongotherthines he says that Davie must have a game warden. He says it is law, and that this matter must be attended to, or the law is going to be enforced. We suppose the brother is right in re gard to a gattie warden. Other coun ties have them and Davie should also have a man to fill that office.. The dastardly attemptrto take the life of Hon. Theodore Roosevelt last week by a crazy man or a thug, is deplored by all good citizens of the country of every political faith. The bullet wound He received means thousands of extra votes for him. The people throughout the country deeply sympathize with the Colonel, and wish for him a complete recov ery. When the Democrats were in pow er from 1892 to 1S93, th e. farmers will remember that cotton wasn’t 11 cents a pound and tobacco 23 cents. Corn wasn’t $1 per bushel and wheat $1.15. If our memory serves us right cotton was 4 cents, tobacco about 3, corn 45 and wheat about 60. Sure'y our farmer friends don’t want to sell their products at such a low price ' next year. E. M. Deadmon, of Fulton, tells Us that G. G. Smith, the registrar at Fulton, refused to register him last week. He carried his certificatewith seal attached, and was turned down and forced to make a trip to Jerusa lem to get a'written notice-from the registrar at that place, which was entirely unnecessary. It is a strange thing that people will use such meth ods to try to keep a man from being allowed the privilege of voting: The facte above were given us by Mr. Deadmon, whose word cannot be questioned. . Abraham Lincoln was a smart man, a good man, and our Demo cratic friends say mightv nice things about;him now since he has- been dead for so many yea-s. Abe remarked some time before he died that he didn’t know much about the tariff, but he knew that when we bought: our goods from England, that Epgland got the money and we got the goods, but that when we purchased our goods at home, we got both the nioney and the goods. Before voting for Woodrow Wilson, think over this wise statement made bv Abe years ago. For years our native- county, Da vie, has been a Republican county. Likesome Democratic counties, a political machine took hold and pro posed to-run it regardless of conse quences. That is a Taft county, they are for him for the sake of the dear old ’‘name,” which some have drag ged in the dirt, drunk with power. As it looks Democrats may carry it this year.—Hickory Times-Mercury. Brother Click is badly mistaken for at least once: in his life. Davie is now and has for 26 years, been a Republicmi county. There were hun dreds of voters In -Davie who were for Roosevelt until he left the Re publican p«arty, but when he depart ed from thb house of his fathers and cussed out the Republican party, then is when the true Republicans bad to declare against him No, there is no danger of the Democrats carrying Dhvie-No more so than there is of the Bull Mpose party car rying it. . Colonel Roosevelt Shot. Col. Theodore Roosevelt, twice president of tlie UDited States apd a candidate for a third term, was shot Monday night he was entering ad; automobile in front of a Milwaukee hotel7 to drive to a hall where he was to deliver Sn; address. The shoot ing was;done by - a;: man-, named John Schtank.: who bad gone crazy on the third term idea. J The wound is . not considered serious, though dangerous complications way re sult later., Mr. Roosevelt was able to: go to Ihe auditorium and deliver his speech, though hi grew weak at the last and was forced to Cut his speech short The bul let Struck the manuscript of his speech in his breast pocket and it was this speech that saved his life. At first Colonel Roose velt ,did not know‘that he was shot ard it wos not uhtil one df his secretaries noticed the hole in his overcoat that he knew anything about; it .Examining fur ther, blood'stains were;discovered. Schrank would have Bred a second time but for the, quick work! of Albert H. Mar tin, one of the’ Colonel's secretaries. Colonel Roosevelt had just stepped ' into an automobile,when the would-be assat- sin pushed his Way through the crowd in the street and fired, Martin, who was standing in the car with the colonel, leap ed pn to the man's:; shoulders and bore him to the ground. ' Captain A. Oi Girard, of Milwaukee, who was on the front seat, juniped almost at the same time and in an instant the man was overpowered and disarmed. ;: A wild? cry of ‘ lynch him’’ went up.. Colonel Roosevelt spoke to the people and.told them to spare the man, who was then taken into the hotel and held there until he was removed to the. pdlice station. Bhipagot Oct. 16,—Colonel Roosevelt’s physicians, after a day’s vigil, said to night that the former President’s condi tion was virtually unchanged as the re sult of being shot and, wounded by' John Schrank at Milwaukee, , - The indications, they said, indicated a speedy recovery for the former President. A rise of temperature, however, late today made Colonel Roosevelt's condition some what less favorable for the .time being. The Colonel's temperature rose to 99, but soon receded to 98.8. The first X ray plate definitely showing the location of the bullet, was developed late this afternoon. Itls partly imbed ded in a fracture of a fourth rib on the right side of the body, about four inches from the sternum. The bullet is -much flattened and spread out. The suHgpbniwp charg§,of the Colonel have refused .to male from the first whe ther the flesh was lacerated by the bullet Chicago; Oct.? 21.—CoL Roosevelt wili leave the hospital today for his home at OysterBay. He is out of all danger, and will probably be able to deliver, at least one more speech during the campaign. The would-be assassin will not be tried until after the election. From FarmingtoB. Mr. Editor:—We people up here noticed a piece in your paper of last week signed a voter, which we great ly approve of. We don’t know who he is, but we are certainly with him. There is only one way to do away with that old ring crowd, and that will be done on Nov. 5, 1912. A Taxpayer in Farmington. MattersofNews. Governor Kitchin has committed to life imprisonment the death sen tence of John Ross, the colored Cle veland county murderer, who killed J. A. Dixon in that county. Two white and two colored men have been arrested for stealing a barrel of wine. Who wouldn’t steal a barrel of wine—especially grape wine. Oscar Underwood, one of the boys who wanted to be defeated for Pres ident, made a speech in Salisbury one night last week. Statesville will issue $35,000 in bonds to be used in building good streets. The Avery county fair which was recently held at Elk Park, was success in every particular. - Avery is a new county, but she is coming to the front. Watauga county will soon vote on a proposition to issue $100,000 in bonds to build a railroad through the county. Hon. Chas. F. McKesson has de cided not to run .for Congress in the ninth district.

WALLACE & SONS, .- ✓ ? *■ I I v Salisbury, N. C. TAFT CONFIDENT OF RE-ELECTION Convincing Indications That the Republican Party Is Still Dominant. When President Taft was visiting his brother in New York a few days ago the newspaper reporters called opon him. After a pleasant chat the president made a formal statement of his views on the political situation: “When I declared a few weeks ago that I felt reasonably sure of my own re-election in November and the suc cess of the Republican party I was re garded by some as entirely. oversan guine and unaware of the situation. Today, however, after a number of in dications that the Republican party is still the dominant party and that the expected growth ..of Democratic strength has failed to materialise, my early declaration is shown to be en titled to respect. The Republicans nec essarily will have a reduced majority over 1908 because of the presence of three tickets in the field, btft the Dem ocratic party will suffer also. The combined strength of the third term party will not be enough to change the ultimate result. “Five or six weeks ago it was- as serted generally that the Republican par\y would secure the vote of the solid east, including all of the New England states, with the exception of Maine and Vermont: that the Demo-, cratic party would maintain its hold on the solid soutli and that the third term party would secure the solid west leaving only tlie middle west as debat able ground. Today, with the election still one montii away, the Republican party finds itself with a strengthened hold on the solid east, having routed the third term party in Vermont and the Democratic party in Maine. The third term leadere recently conceded that we would pick the state of Utah out of the solid west. and. after con ferring With Chairman Hilles and oth ers recently in the west, there is every reason to believe that the Republican party will carry. Michigan, Washing ton, Idaho and Wyoming. Moreover, If the proper kind of a campaign is waged, we will carry Oregon. Kansas and Minnesota, where the third term strength has rapidly waned since the recent tour through that section by the party’s candidate. “I am not familiar with the develop ments in other western states, al though many good reports have come to me at Beverly concerning them, but even with the states already mention ed it can be seen that there is no long er a solid west back of the new party, but more, nearly a solid west reunited In support of the Republican ticket This strength, added to the indisputa ble hold on the eastern states, consti tutes in itself a sufficient strength to give success to the party. “It is scarcely necessary for me to point to the necessity of re-establish ing a Republican majority In the house of representatives. If this is done I feel confident that I will be able to have placed on the statute books the workmen’s compensation law which“l urged upon the last session, but which was sent to oblivion by the Democratic house. If the country will give the Republican party a complete victory In its congressional as well as its presidential ticket a proper tariff re vision will be speedily effected, with knowledge of the facts ascertained by a tariff commission, which will harm no one and remove its present defects.” WHO WAS REPRESENTED? Dr. Wilson Asks Question That May Embarrass Democrats. ' “Who,” asks Woodrow Wilson, in his speech of acceptance, “when you come down to the hard facts of the matter, have been represented In recent years when our tariff schedules were being discussed and determined, not on the floor of congress, for that is not where they have been determined, but in the committee rooms and conferences?” Precisely. Who has? When the Payne-Aldrieh bill was being framed prolonged and open hearings were con ducted by the ways and means com mittee. Every one who had facts or arguments to present was given an op portunity to be heard. However, when Dr. Wilson's lellow Democrats under took to revise the schedules In this congress Oscar Ouderwood and his as sociates barred the doors and out of ad vices.' the sources of which they have never yet entirely disclosed, proceeded to make up the schedules In secret and jam them through the house by gag rulea It would be interesting could Dr.'Wtl- son secure from the Democratic lead ers an- answer to his question. It was not entirely thoughtful of him Ao PV0. pound it.' / I —------------------ ** . When Wilson Will Get WorsojLeft.

J * — $ WHat Woodrow Wilson W rrtd IsiHis Well Known “History.” PREFERRED IT TO EUROPEAN “More to Be Desired as Workmen, if Not as Citizens, Than Most of the Coarse Crew That Came Crowding Every Year at Eastern Ports.” Woodrow Wilson, Democratic .can didate for president of the United States, bas declared himself In the, most public and permanent manner In favor of Chinese immigration as preferable to foreigners from southern and eastern Europe, whom he calls' "the coarse crew crowding In at the eastern ports7'—that Is, New York. Boston, etc. As a very lgyge propor tion of the worker? In New England pills belong to the class denounced by Wilson as less desirable than the Chi nese, they ought to be Interested In the views which be bas expressed and which we quote as follows from page and volume of Wilson’s “History- of the American People.” From page 212, volume 6, 'tNow there came multitudes of men of the - lowest class from the south of Italy and men of meaner sort out of Hun gary and Poland, as If fhp cquqtrteq qif the spnth Qf Burops Werp burdening themselves of the more sor did and hapless elements of their pop ulation." From page 213, volume 5: “The Chinese were more to be desired as workmen, if not as citizens, , than most of the coarse crew that came crowd ing In every year qt the eastern ports. Jt wus their sjrijj. tbejr Intelligence, Uieir knack of succeeding and driving duller rivals out rather than their alien habits that made them feared and hated and led to their-exclusion at the prayer of the men they would likely displace should tllUY IBUlfipi?;' The unlikely fellows who came in at the eastern ports (that is, the immi grants-from Europe) were -tolerated because they usurped no place bat the very lowest In the scale of labor.” Foreign born workingmen and wor^- Ing women of Now England, what do you think of this statement by Wood row Wilson, -Democratic candidate for president of the United States? He says that you .are “a coarse crew,” that the Chinese are better workmen and might make better citizens than you are, and that yon are. tolerated because you usurp “no place but the very lowest In the scale pf labor."-: We have given you page number and volume number where these state ments are to be found In Woodrow Wilson’s “ History of the'American People.” . You can go to any library and read'them for yourself. Woodrow Wilson is the first candi date for president of :the; United States who has declared himself In favor of Chinese immigration. Of the estimated population of 350,000,OOb in China many millions^ would like to ceme to America, -ff - admitted they would soon drive American labor out of the. mills and workshops and also out of retell and much of the wholesale business. At present Wil son is .keeping very mum' on the,' subject, but -there can be ;no doubt Whatever . that he would, if elected president,'attempt to cary out his pub lished views, and open the doer to the Chinese. In Ltbis he would-have the. backing of the southern Democrats, who would be glad to have the Chi nese come over and work for-them In place of the negroes. In this connection- we suggest par ticular attention to Woodrow WUsonls expression about “the unlikely fellows” from southern, and eastern! Europe be- big “tolerated- because they usurped, no place but the very lowest in the scale of labor." - .v The -BepublIcan party. --whose first president was Lincoln therail .splitter, whose second president was Johnson toe tailor, whose third president was Grant the tanner,. whose.: fifth presi dent was Garfield the towpath mule driver, whose eighth president was McKinley, in his youth an,dron found er, regards and treats-all honest labor as honorable and as not merely to be “tolerated," but honored. Wilson’s Blur upon the labor of the foreign born finds no-echo in the utter ances of President Taft, who, return ing from a visit to the west, in the coursO of which he addressed large gatherings of our adopted countrymen, declared -that nothing had. gratified him so much as the intelligent, Intmr- Ost ahowi^by his hearers In American institutions and their earnest desire $6 anderstand the spirit and meaning of the constitution of the United States, v CHASING A PHANTOM. We are living in an age In which Uy exaggeration of the defects of our pres ent condition, by false charges of re1 .sponsibility for it against individuals and classes, by holding up to the fever, ish imagination of the less. fortunate and the discontented the possibilities of a millennium, a condition- of .popular uu.rrst has been produced.' New parties are. being formed, with the proposed purpose of satisfying this, unrest by promising a panacea. In so far as in equality of condition can be lessened and equality of opportunity can be pro moted by improvement of our educa tional system, the betterment of the laws to insure the quick administra tion of Justice and by the prevention of the acquisition of privilege without just compensation, in so far as the adop tion of the legislation above recited and' laws of a similar character may aid the less fortunate in their struggle with the hardships of life, all are in sympa thy with a continued effort to remedy injustice and to aid the weak, and I venture to say that there is no national administration in which more real steps of such progress have, been takpq than in the present qnp. But in sq far as thp propaganda for the satisfaction of uprest involves the promise of a mil ' leppium, a condition In which the rich arp to be made reasonably poor and • the poor reasonably rich by law, we are chasing a phantom; we are bolding out to those whose unrest we fear a prospect and a dream, a vision of the Impossible. — From President Taft’s Speech of Acceptance. Avoid Sedative Cough Medicines. If you want to contribute directly to the occurrence of capillary bronchitis and pneumonia use cough medicines that con tain codine, morphine, heroin and other sedatives when you have a cough or cold. An expectorant like Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy is what is needed. That cleans out the culture beds or breeding places for the germs of pneumonia and other germ diseases. That is why pneumonia never results from q cqld when Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy is used. It has a world wide reputation for its cures. It contains ho morphine or other sedative.

If four yeans ago tiny one had pre dicted that a man twice honored by the Republican party With the highest of fice On earth—the ■■ presidency of the United States—would turn on that par ty aDd seek to rend it because riot giv en a third term, and would 'do his best Indirectly to elect, the choice and the representative of the southern bourbon democracy, that prediction would have seemed fully as incredible as the for mer. The third term candidate is the prin- tpal spellbinder for Woodrow Wilson. He knows in his heart and soul that the only success possible for hiinfshould he succeed would ,.be’ to defeat Taft and elect Wilson..

That the aspirant for a third term will sink into richly merited oblivion there can be no doubt whatever. He might have maintained In private Mife the honor, the ,dignity and, the/ influ ence belonging to his position :as an ex-president. He has sacrificed them all to a Catilinian ambition, and the calm and .deliberate Judgment of -the American people will put the stamp of condemnation alike on his. insatiable appetite for power and his;unscrupu lous demagogy. Even the bourbons who are egging him on and rejoicing in the hope of profit from his treachery have only contempt for his ; motives and his course. They are delighted tq see him . attempt to destroy the party; which abolished slavery, overthrew secession, built up American Industry Land main tained the financial integrity Lof the nation. Butthey havenostomach for' the malice and. the treachery that are behind his desperate adventure.;.

FOR VICE PRESIDENT: . JAMES SCHOOLCRAFT SHERMAN A Republican in Davip, a Bull Kiooser in Wilkes, a ThirdTermer in Yadkin. ; No man in Davie county wants to vote for a man for office who will disgrace the office. Simmons and Kitchin haven’t kiss ed and made up yet, and the election only a few days off. . The people of Davie county are going to vote for the men and not the party next Tuesday. . We will, never vote for a drunkard for any office, it makes no difference what ticket he is running on. AvoteforWilson means a vote for free soup, free trade and starva tion wages to the workingman. Ask your Senator and Representa tive how they stand on good roads and a dog law before voting for them. Tha Republican county ticktt is composed of some as good men as are to be found in North Carolina, and they will be elected as usual. We want progressive men for our county commissioners. Consultyour conscience before swallowing every thing that is placed before you. Every Republican in Davie county should go to the polls next Tuesday and vote for the best men that are before the people for election. Askyour representative, senator aid counly commissioners how th<y stand on the dog law and good roaas before vou cast your ballot next Tuesday. The Record will be working for the Republican 'party when many of its troducers are either voting the Democratic ticket, or have gone to the Social I=*" Boll Moose Dartv. Thirty years ago the cry was, "Hurrah for York, Sheek and Bail ey.” Today it is hurrah for Grant, Sheek and Bailey. Don’t know how it will be after next Tuesday. Before our next issue the people throughout the country will have decided whether they want Taft ar.d r r )3perity for four more years, or Wilson and soup houses. * The Republican and Democratic candidates have been' shelling the woods for the past week or more, and have made their last public speeches. The voters will now do the rest. To be a Republican does hot mean that ^ou have to swallow everything that is placed before you. You can scratch a man if he is not the msn for the office, without turning into a Democrat. The editor of The Record is still a Republican, despite the fact that he has been read out of the party, a- bused and villified by a few office holders whom he cannot and will not Supportforany office," because, in his opinion, they are not fit to hold office. so we are informed. Had there been no Republican paper in the county, such action could not-have been cri ticised. Is the Bull .' Moose mad *at The Record because we are support ing Taft for President, the only Re publican whp is ; running for that high; office. A: We earnestly} appeal to every true Republican in? Davie scounty, and every friend of ours in the county to go to the .polls-next Tuesday and cast their votes for three - commissioners who will-do something for thecoun- <y. * Donlfrcast your votes for any o ie man who wants to-run the coun ty without/consulting an; one. A VOICE FROM FARMINGTON. Mr. Editor:—Where are we, the good Republicans of Dr. Kimbrough, W. A. Bailey,’and W. F. Williams’ davs? Th the days of these good and true Republicans,. everything was well in the Republican party. We knew nothing of discord, ordering good men out of our court house, which belongs as much to one tax payer of Davie county as another, and not to that Ring crowd that I have seen so much mention of in your good paper. Now are we Re publicans going-to continue to vote for a man or a set of men who will order any man, white or black, rich or poor, out of our court house, and not a Ring Court House. I know the good people of old Davie too well to think they will submit to these ipen any longer.: I wonder if the little man down about Advance, and some men in other sections of the county, know the law in regard to buying a man’s vote? I bet they don’t. Just watch, ; A Votkr -From Farmington. FELLOW-REPUBLICANS! Mr. Editor:—What do they mean? The wise one, "Dear Turner,” tells the voters of bid Davie if they don’t vote for-the Boss, G. G. Bailey, not to vote/for Phil Ratledge and C. A. Hartman. tNow if they want us to do this, all right, for we are sure to fix Cap. It is reliably reported on good authority that Cap Bailey said if the people wanted an steel bridge at Hall’s:Ferry. they would have to go doWn’in.their pockets and pay for it,' if. be • was . elected County Commissioner again. Dear voters, come out;on; Novi 5th, and let’s fix this old ring crowd. „ A Voter. vf. Both Together.

We are trying to make arrangements to se cure the complete election- returns at our office on the night of the el ection and will hold our paper until Wednesday morning so we can give our readers the result. Congressman Page told the Re publicans in his speech here last week that if they voted the Demo- • crStic ticket their wives would- love them better.
