APRIL 2, 1913.NUMBER 38 Stanly County’s Farm er. ^Ibemarle Chronicle. 4. company across the ocean has JieaIil of the Stanly County Parm er and his anxiety to get hold o f new things, ami so they are going to semi him a stovane outfit, the latfest ponder. When it comes to Stanly County there w ill be something do- iu<r. Tliefiisti blush you m ight tlihik t bat Stovane is a polish th at makes stoves shine like* a stall fed ■Vfiican. but it is not. Stovane is a little needle that makes your legs iascuible while your head is going at a two forty gait, or youean take a job in another place and w alk arouud without knowing or feeling anything like a policeman, w hile your legs are as supple as an egg. By giving you a jag above the dan* ger Iiue with these Stovane needle yon eau shave yourself w ith a safe ty razor without feeling the h air roots let loose or you can eat potato galid at a banquet w ithout sm ell ing tbe ouions. You can stub your toe nail off and it w ant h u rt you, but yon feel like a peacock w ith a wooden leg all the tim e. When you sprain your ankle, i f you take Stovane, you don’t feel the pain, tor your legs are insensi ble if yon are a man, and if you are a lady your lim bs experience the same lack of sensation. Stovane is sim ply great, they tell me trom acrors the sea. I t has come to stay, W h a t a benison it will be to the candidate. G iving himself a shot he can render his lower extremities insensible to pain, while his upper w ork can be turned loose in a ll th eir intensity! You can kick him u n til you wear tbe toes of your shoes off and he can’t feel it. S h o o tita little high er up and he can run sixteen inileB without stopping to get breath, and theu deliver a speech ad long th at it would have to be run on a hose reel. A life insurance agent can para lyze his leg, stim ulate h is ' month at one squirt when he learns- how to apply the needle properly, and then what chance has any one to escape him! But when a b o o k'ag en t comes through the door, you can i f quick enough give him a ja b w ith this cunning little instrum ent before he kaows it and paralyze his upper and at the same tim e kic k him OFer the yard in a manner that will clear it of rubbish. When handled rig h t it w ill k ill hook worm and stimulates energy. It will be a great use for us farm ers we can give the hired man a ja b and that w ill make him q uit th in k ing about sport and give his legs a tea mile an hour gait, and when there comes a rainy day we can in vest the job release Iiis legs and let him think to his heart’s con tent. What a god send to the boy who gets his liking in school. H e can give himself a ja b w ith Stovane and the teacher jean wear herself out putting the dingbat on, and the boy w ill p ity her as.she messes up her hair, loses her rats and gets red in the faee, and when she gets through he can tell her if she needs more exercise he w ill bring her a Wgger club. \ Ify o u r your auto or gasoline engiue rears up in front and kick uP behind just take a ja b o f stov ane and grab a m onkey wrench. When you work and wrench slips °ff and hits you in the m outh in-* stead of profanity you w ill calm ly spit out the teeth and blood and sing, ‘‘Bear me away on yonr snowy wings” or “ L et’s p lay; in the green grass.” A bottle of Stovane and a hypodermic® he% le will come lree in the tool , box of evory automobile and gasoline en gine in the next few years. I f by accident you should happen to loose your head in 'a tra in wreck give your relatives a ja b in the heart, and they wont cry a t yonr Is The W orld Gtowing Better. They tell us and ever tell ns th at it is, b ut th in k of how much bet ter ths w orld is growing— and so it must grow before it w ill be good a t a ll. Look at the recent upris ing in M exico— hum an beings shooting each other down w ithout p ity and w ithout concern. Three thousand innocent people killed women and children who happen ed ta.be w ith in the range of the fearful machine guns, and seven thousand wounded— and a ll for w hat! Sim ply the am bition of one set of men who d id n ’t want another set to control them . Treachery, hypocrisy and b ru tality were on every banner. Patriotism had no place and no chance. I t was mer ely the survival of the strongest— and M adero was hot outgeneraled — he was sim ply outnumbered. Modern methods of w arfare were not considered— it was sim ply the prim al law of man— to take a ll th at was in sight; to fight for it— and the result settles nothing. I t means th at w ithin-a year another crowd o f so-called rebeta can' rise up and storm again w ith Bhot and shell the capital of Mexico and if successful p u t to death the presi dent in charge and in his place put another M exican at the ;head — to w ield his power only so long as other rebels are satisfied. In countries perhaps more c iv i lized, in countries where there is, because of protection and standing arm ies, more regard for the law , these uprisings are h ardly poss ib le. B u t take away from Am eri- ea.her standing armies; do away w ith the navy and let the people undertake to run things w ithout m ilita ry protection and it wouldn’t be five years u n til all o f ■ th e, land was Btrewn w ith bodies of the dead and the blood o f those who th in k today they are law abinding would drench the soil. M aybe we are growing better as the world grows old—guess per haps, figured as it is, we are— but still a country or a people should not boast of m o rtality when that m o rtality is sustained only by a Btandingarm y w ith the treasury o f a nation to m ake it good.— Greensboro P atrio t;_____ Straight a t It.

Under the infamous dead pauper law her body now . floats^ in thepTcklitig'vat of a medical institu tion, a shame and disgrace to the State. And still the Legislature voted to retain the law upon the statute books. No State should re fuse to bury its pauper dead.

' Those who are due us on subscrip tion are earnestly requested to call or send us the amount at once, as we feel sure our creditors are in need o f cash at this tim e. A t least that is what they w rite us. Most of the farmers seem to be in favor of good roads. Once in a while you w ill find one that has not waked up, but they are few and fa r between. I f the citizens of the towns w ill vote right, there is no danger but what Davie w ill have good roads in the near future. Our friend and fellow editor, Howard A .

DO WE WANT A COTTON MILL, Do the citizens of Mocksville want a cotton mill? We don’t know whether they do or not, but the ma jo rity of them are not doing much toward getting one. W e have been told by reliable parties that a few of our most prominent men arte opposed to a m ill here. W e can’t imagine why any man who has property, in the town or county could oppose a cotton m ill. It would mean new life for Mocksville, and a cash m ar ket for the farmers throughout the county. As it is now, a farm er can not sell produce, corn, or anything else here fo r cash, except chickens and eggs. Property would increase in value, the merchant would double his business, the lawyer, doctor, dentist, and even the newspapers would do a better business. We want a cotton m ill and stand ready to do anything w e can to help get one. Don’t let 1913 pass without a m ill. A few of our-citizens are doing all they can . to bring a m ill here, and we hope that they w ill succeed. SOMETHING MUST BE DONE. W e dislike to let the people out side of our town know the true con ditions here, but things have reach ed such a stage that something must be done soon, or there w ill be noth ing le ft to do. A larg en u m b er of our best citizens .have le ft town, and others are leaving almost every week -because they can find nothing to do here, T hepeop Iearen o tto blame fo r leaving, as they cannot live on wind, but it is up to the business men-of the town to try and do some thing to keep them here. W hat we need worse than anything else is more factories and shops. W e have several factories, but all of them are not funning on fu ll tithe, and those dependent on them fo r a living have to have regular work to keep the w olf from the door. Ourpopuiation is growing, but it is growing the wrong way. There is nothing here to induce new citizens to come to our town. The business men o f the town should give _gyery assistance possible in bringing new enterprises to our town- W em ust have them if we hope to grow. HELP THfGOODWORK ALONG.

Dayton, 0., March 25.—Dayton is to night nothing less than a seething river three miles wide, a mile and a half on each side of Main street, its principal thoroughfare, while it is estimated that fjom 2,000 to 5,000 people have perished. The Algonquin Hotel is submerged to its third story and above this level in the downtown district office ,buildings, hotels and. business houses are places of refuge. A school building that was known to have housed no less than 400 school chil dren shortly before the waters rushed iii that direction, is entirely submerged and as far as can be ascertained all of these little ones met a watery grave. Thousands of those who were fortunate enough to have escaped the first rush of the waters are being fed tonight on short rations. House looting began early in the night, while the militia are oh duty they are wholly incapable of handling . the situa tion. Incidents without number are narrated of persons on the flooded district, waving handkerchiefs and otherwise signalling for aid, being swept away before the eyes of the watchers on the margin of the waters.

To the Congress which I now Jliive ou my hands; Gentlem en, you a'e assembled-as the represen- JatJves of the grandest aggregation 0I fools ou the face of the earth, you arc here to talk and draw your salaries. Custom demauds that I say something about the gene)al situation. = Our foreign relations are a ll right, but I don’t know how long they are going to stay so. The JIesiean situation is getting p retty serious. Thein mixed-blooded pau pers down there are tryin g to im pose on some of our Am erican millionaires who have property interests iu that country, and we don’t aim to put up w ith much of that. But while other nations are fighting like cats and dogs, le t us try to remain at peace w ith them , ami do what fighting we do against the American working man. Speaking of money, I heard H c - Adoo say there was ju s t dead,loads of it in tLe Treasury. I don’ t know how it got there nor what good it is doing anybody, b ut I guess we had better try to keep it there. If it should happen to get away from us, we can Bell some bonds and get it back, m aybe. JIoney is the most im portant me dium of commercial consideration, and should always be kept where it ought to be, because of the fact that where it ought to be is the place ior it. I hope the lu cid ity of my elucidation is equal to the requirements of the occasion. Being at peace w ith everybody but the American workingm an, I might say we are in p retty good fighting shape to go up against any body of men, provided they are not armed. The troops ought to be massed near the large cities and miuing districts in order for them to be effective in shooting down hungry people who w ant a job, or who protest against low wages. I think it would be agood idea to iucrease the arm y, as times are apt to be hard for the next four years, and much trouble may be looked for. I think the N avy w ill get along “swimmingly” during m y adm in istration, because I have it on good authority th at m y new Sec retary of the N avy, M r. Jodarter Daniels, once crossed the Neuse river in a boat. I want to say to you, gentlemen, that the courts of this country are daisies. And they are presided over by a bhnch of judges that are sweet scented honeysuckles. Agriculture is a great industry. Hext to teaching school and being president, agriculture occupies one of the most im portant relations to our national prosperity. I would like to tell you about farm ing, but worthy Secretary, M r. Dave Houston, w ill soon begin telling you what he don’t know about it. Ihe Secretary w ill recommend th at fanners sow a few sacks- of salt uud raise their own salt next year. He will also recommend th at po tatoes be picked off of trees instead of shaking them off. • A nd before leaving this subject, I would sug gest that sulky plows ought to be swung up to a lim b and le ft over eight. That w ill bieak them from keing sulky. How we are getting down to brass lacks. The T a riff is our old stand I’i’- W hat a sweet morsel!

Statesville Landmark. In Morganton the other day a Landm ark man heard a good deal of talk about an unexpected con dition o f affairs that had suddenly come upon the county of Burke. Since March 3rd the express com pany has refused to deliver ship ments o f liquor in B urke county, and this is the explanation. In 1907 M r. Isaac T . A very, at the tim e B urke’s representative in- the Legislature, had passed a law designed to prohibit shipments of liquor into B urke county. The counties o f Anson and Cherokee, H igh Point township (including the town of H ig h Point) iu G u il ford county and possibly other territory was included in the b ill by the representative of the coun ties named. The courts decided th at M r. A v ery’s law wouldn’t hold and the measure was forgotten u ntil the express company called off shipments of “ the oil of jo y .” I t is now claimed th at the pass age of the W ebb act by Congress makes this A vbry act operative, wherefore B urke and the other territory named are good and d ry. This explanation is somewhat vagne, but it is a fact th at the ex press company w ill no longer de liv e r liquor to any point in. Bnrke county and the inhabitants thereof now realize the fu ll meaning of prohibition as applied, to liquor. Some o f the boys who lik e a whet occasionally are lik e the Alexander county boy who found him self in the penitentiary— they are “ not pleased a t a ll;” and in the interval of moistening th eir parched throats w ith ordinary water they are doubtless saying things about “ Ik e ” A very th at wouldn’t look w ell in p rin t. The effect o f course does not fa ll on the “ m orally stunted” alone, Some ot those who talked loud for prohibition, especially. to p ro hib it “ old Jones,” never ex pected the thing to go th at far-and they join the m ortally stunted in the opinion th at it has been carried entirely too far. How ever, this does not mean th at there is more demand for the ardent in Burke than in the average comm unity. Ocher localities would feel the same way if the situation th at has over whelmed B urke was to come upon them . B u t th e B u rk e b o y s a re not as those w ithout hope. Nebo, a station to the north, is ju s t across the B urke linein M cD ow ell. Ship ments cqp be made to McDowell and it is probable th at'N eb o w ill soon become a popular shipping point w ith some of the Burke folks; and the South M ountain denizens, who occasionally m ake a run on th eir own account, <may alscf be able to relieve the local situation.

Albemarle Chronicle. ' ■ ^ • The very greatest thing that the Stanly County Farm er has ever heard of is now being worked out by a cousin of his over in Paris. The news got here too late to have The_ Chronicle get out an extra, so I have saved-it fo r the regular edit ion. The whole item would merely be news fo r the New York W orld or Chicago Am erican if it were not fo r the fact that I have been chosen to introduce the wonder in this country as soon as my related scientist gets things running. A t that tim e we w ill be on the map sure. ' Thisnew invention is a little belt that reverses the life o f everybody who wears one from a child on. In other words, if you put on one of these belts you will live just as you are now living until you- get sixty years old, when you w ill at once be gin to get young again at the same rate that you got old. W ith this in vention nobody w ill die of old age any more—everybody w ill die of young age. I f you come to think of it right hard, this new belt business w ill do some wonderful things. I f a man today 20 years old has a fath er 60 years old, in 20 years from now both of them w ill be just 40 years old, and you can’t tell the father from 'the son unless you mark In 40 years from today, theem. son w ill be 60 years old and the father w ill be back to 20 years or 40 years younger than the son. In ten years more the son w ill be back to 50 and the father w ill be 10. Just imagine a sight like that, w ill you. Father w ill wear his son’s knee pants and son w ill wear his father’s old duds. Nine ye arslaterth e son w ill be 41 years old and the father w ill be a baby I year old. By that tim e the son w ill be married and have children, too, and i f he has a baby one year did at that tim e he can put it in a cradle w ith his one year old father, who w ill be the other baby’s grandfather.- W hat a wonder! Grandchild and grandfath er both one size and both one age! Gentlemen, I can hardly believe it. There are so many queer features to this that it takes a month to fig ure them all out. About 110 yedrs after a child is born he. w ill be a child again, arid when you go to a picnic you won’t know whether the little fellow in the blue sailor suit is some grandfather’s darling or, some darling’s grandfather; at all picriics for. little folks; the sons and daugh ters w ill sit around on benches and watch their fathers and their grand fathers, their mothers and their grandmothers jtqnp ropes and eat peanuts. L ife w ill be all different then. Nobody w ill dread old age. I f you happen to be a young fellow 20 years old; bouud fo r a swell dance, and accidentally tear your suit below the knee on a nail in the doorstep, sneak off in the wood shed and stay there 95 years, then come back, cut the pants off at the knees and they w ill be all right fo r a fif teen year old chap like you. These' new belts w ill be grabbed by more girls than they w ill by boys. G ir s never get old. There w ill be no more such thing as hopeless old maids, because if they are old maids on the first trip they’ll have the consolation of doing better the next tim e. Iknow severaloldm aidsw fio w ill take two or three of these belts. But the young men w ill have a hard lot here; they won’t know wTiether their sweethearts are going to or coming from old age. A fellow is liable to pick up a g irl who is 20 to day, and after he has gone w ith her six years she’ll be sweet 14,. and he w ill be about"30. I f he still keeps on coming to see her fo r the ten years following, he w ill, instead of bringing her bouquets and chewing gum, have to bring her rubber balls and rag dolls. When these belts are the go, the school systems of the country w ill have to be doubled.

V A n um brella_ is a circulating medium which passes from hand to hand lik e money. The object o f an um brella is to keep the raiu off of the w earer’s hat and deposit, it on his shoulders. A n um brella’s rib is . its most vita l poiht. A man may break a rib, or even have it shot in two by an anarchist, and still live to be defeated for president. B u t when an um brella breakB a rib , it is good Only to lend to a personal friend. ’ W hen a wet um brella is brought into the house, it is usually closed np and set in a corner to drain. For the purpose of wetting the floor that is thought to be more artistic than cutting a hole in the roof. A n infant um brella is called a, parasol, and it is used by ladies to keep their drug-store complexion from getting sun-burnt. The um brella is the bashful lover’s best friend, as it gives him an excuse to approach his best g irl :and offer his services in carrying it.

Would Make Them AU Stand The Test. Washington Dispatch. Postmaster General Burleson has begun developing his plan to pre scribe a civ il service examination forfouth class postmasters. H e consulted w ith G ivil Service Com missioner John A . M cIlhenny, who' told him it would be practical to hold examinations th at would be. true tests of the applicant’s ab ility . The fourth class postmasters, nearly 40,000 of them , now are in the classified service, having been placed there by executive orderB under .the Boosevelt and T a ft ad ministrations. PostmasterGeneral Burleson says that the spirit ot the civil service was violated in p u t ting all these .,officers into the classi fied service and that he proposes to place them on a stictly c iv il ser vice “ M any of those who today hold positions as fourth class postmas ters,” said M r. Burleson, “ secured them asa result of pernicious p o liti cal ac tivity. The Postoffice D e partm ent should be a business in stitution, run on scientific business lines. I intend to m aken t such.” H e added th at the plan on which he was working was his own; that he had uot discussed it w ith Presi dent W ilson.

Cures a Cold in One Day. 25c. Judge Long, who held our court last week hit some of the boys a pretty hard lick, but most of the people' are loud in their praise of his go'od work. There were some stirring times in Mocksville last week. A good many of the boys were badly, scared fo r awhile, but the breeze didn’t extend so fa r after all. In the bond election for good roads held in Stokes county last Tuesday, the bonds carried by a big m ajority. There is no reason why Davie coun ty cannot carry their bond election. Only two boys from Davie county have joined the Boys’ Corn Club up to this time. Every boy in the coun ty should join , and show other coun ties what old Davie can do when it comes to producing corn. One of the most prominent minis ters of the gospel in Davie tells us that he is w illing to stump the coun-- ty in favor of a bond issue for good roads. We will need a good many speakers to* go on the stump before the election and explain the good roads bill to the people. An X mark opposite your name this week, means that we looked for you to call or send us what you were due us on subscription court week, but that you failed to show up. I If you want our paper, you must pay for it. Let us hear from you. W e didn’t issue an extra edition of The Record to tell of the misfor tunes of some of our citizens as some requested us to do: Bad news travels fast enough without scattering it broadcast through a newspaper. We had rather publish good news about our citizens, than to tell of, their misfortunes and defects. For. a long time many things have been going on in our town that should not have beep. And so long as the town stands, meaness and law breaking w ill prevail to some ex ten t.. It is not always best to publish every thing that happens. Things could be printed- that would shake up any community and cause strife, divorce, fighting, lawsuits and even murder. The Record is not here to stir up any of these things and w ill always deal as fa ir w ith the beggar as it does w ith the m illionaire. Most people are prone to talk about the wrongs of some poor devil who goes astray, while if it was a rich man or a high society flyer, the whole thing would be synelched and not a word said,. The Record believes in a synore deal to every man, and it be lieve the guilty should be punished for their crimes, let them rich or poor. But w ith the classes it de pends a great deal on whose ox is gored. The next issue of The Davie Re cord will be of interest to every per son in the county, as it w ill contain the names of all our delinquent sub scribers. Don’t miss this great is sue, fo r it will tell you a lot of things that.you didn’t know. The compulsory school law, as passed by the recent legislature, goes into effect this year, Al! chil dren between the ages of eight and twelve years, are compelled to at tend school, whether they or their parent wish it or not. This is a mighty good law, but it w ill be hard to enforce. We hope to be able in a week or two to publish a synopsis of the of the Davie county good roads bill which w ill be voted on about the last of May. Every man in the county should be furnished a copy of the bill, and we believe the Davie County Good Roads Association should have ,the bill printed and mail each voter in the county a copy. , The editor spent a few hours very pleasantly in Cooleemee Saturday. W hile th erew eh ad the pleasure of meeting the biggest liar in Davie county. A reward of $5 in gold will be paid to the person sending in the name of the gentleman we have re ference to. Send in your guesses at once, and earn five dollars easier than you ever did in your life. AU edi tors are barred from this contest as ibis well known that they hold ,the prize fo r lying. We say this so th at all those who w rite us w ill re fra in from sending in the name of Editor Sell. Davie is to be blessed or cursed w ith three terms of court in the future. . Since th efo urextra judges have been appointed some excuse has to be made to give them some thing to do. Davie has always man aged to get along fairly well with -t#o termp of court each year, and ton the pudges loafed over two- irds of the tim e. In the future odr judge will spend about nine days on the bench, out of the six. weeks that he is supposed to work. The next term of Davie court w ill be held in August. In the future the courts w ill be held in April, August and December. A Few Remarks. I would lik e to whisker a word of warning to the E d ito r of The Record for ad vocati ng and agitat ing the question of squandering your money for such a,foolish thing as roads or bridges. Now suppose the kinks were drawn out and the roads were straightened, a person in passing through th e-co u nty wouldn’t get to see nea,r so much of the land as at present. Suppose a man started through the county from Statesville to Advance or front H untsville to Cooleemee he would be out from three to five days w ith his wagon and team, barring accidents and breakdowns and he would pretty sure have to leave six bits or better, where if the roads' were good he would get back home and the county would lose all that extra money see. You better go slow about fixing up that good old muddy road, the autos w ill be so thick you can’t get your horses out of the stables. W h y you can’t build good roads in that county because you have no rock, gravel or clay, you know the farm ers would not allow any rocks taken from the fields, because they are so much satisfaction in c u lti vating or mowing. A nd, by the w ay there is a lot of foolish people out west th at uses a lot of sand and rock w ith a little cement and makes bridges and culverts- that m ight last u ntil the ne :t Democrat is elected president, !, would pot do any thing like th at because it woulAcause some poor fellow to lose a job of repairing an old wooden bridge or replacing "one after the annual spr-ing freshet.

News, o f March 8th. a Democratic paper, whose editor, M r. W . C. Dowd, is high u f in the counsels of his party speaks fo r itself: “ In the classic terms of a certain statesman*' ‘where are we at?” The legislature this week w ith one fell swoop kilied the bill providing for additional $400,000 necessary fo r the six months school program, and then killed the re-assessment bill. In a special message Governor Craig urgently stressed the necessity of providing for a re assessment of real estate. He showed, how that additional revenue could thereby be raised to meet expenses and cover the deficit. He declared th a t pro p e r ty at present was unfairly taxed; the small holder pays his part, but the big owner of real estate does not pay his. H e would have had a re assessment puting all property large and small on an equal basis. He urged a lower tax rate and a more equitable system of assessment. Surely no one can deny that miser able unfairness has been the out growth of the present system in the manner of taxing property. But despite the message of the governor, the legislature has killed the re-as- aessment bill. Just what the reve nue bill which has found, favor will mean in the way of increased taxes we are unable to say. Certainly this is a grave problem and one which the state expected legislators to face and solve —Charlotte News, March 8th. Saiisbury Negro Applies for Ap pointment as Consul to Liberia. D r. F .

To Oppose Page. Washington, A pril 9.—An effort is being made to inciye Southern Con gressmen to oppose the vnomination of W alter H , Page as Ambassador to the Court of St. James on the grounds that he is a negro-Jover, has entertained Booker T. Washington and censured the South for disfran chising the negro. The m atter is- being stirred up by people living in New York. It w ill hardly affect confirmation, but may amount to a disagreeable incident. , Some Pithy Points. Years ago Horace Greely said “Go west young man.” Champ Clark says, “ Go south my boy.” The western voters say to their senator, ‘Go east Colonel,” and Doc Cook says, “ Go north w ith me.” That pretty well covers the points of the compass and leaves room only for the additional suggestion. “ Go to work. One of the New York daily papers very truthfully says: “ It ought not to take the merchant of a small town long to find out tha’t in the; parcels post he has a friend-and'nofc! n foe.

PresidentR eadsM essage. Washington, April 8 — President Wilson today reverted to the custom of a century ago by reviving to the precedent by which Congress heard from, the President’s lips his message to the national legislature. Official Washington greeted the unusual event with a feeling m ore of cour tesy than of critism. The Presi dent’s message was about twelve hundred words long. c Before departing for. the capitol, the President had several engage ments and a cabinet meeting to oc cupy him. He was away from the W hiteW hiteiHouse little'm ore than an hour. SbcretariesMcAdoo, Lane, Daniels and Garrison occupied seats in the executive gallery and w ith their families heard the President read his message. Secretary Bryan had another engagement and could not g°-., that provision whereby senators are chosen by state legislatures and put ting this m atter directly in the hands of the qualified voters of the various states. The success of the direct election proposition has been conceded for some time, sentiment in favor of the new plan having grown steadily in recent years. “A Bad Bill For Cotton Industry.” Washington, April 7.—Anxiety was plainly w ritten on the faces of the North Carolina cottbn manufactur ers here today to attend-the annual meeting of the American Cotton Manufacturers Association, when they read the cotton schedule of the Underwood toriff bill. “A bad bill for the cotton industry” was their verdict. / M r, Stuart W.. Cramer o f Char lotte said the bill penalized most severely the fine* grades of cotton goods in which North Carolina was building up a promising industry, while it fell more lightly on the mills making ducks and denims. The re-, suit of the enactment of this meas ure, in his opinion, w ill be to drive out of business the m ills making the finer goods, or compel them to turn their attention to the coarser goods. M r. Cramer said,' “ Our State now- makes one-fourth of the American output of yarns o f the 78 and 80- thread class,-of vyhich goiods we now im port 35 percei/t of our total an nual consumption. This bill w ill make it w ell-night impossible' fo r them to continue in busines.” - M r, P. H . Hanes o f Winston-Salem said: “ I f this is a sample of Demo cratic-revision, it is going to drive a nuqjber of business men into the Re publican ranks.” He had a confer ence today w ith Representative ClaudeKitchin, a member o f' the Waysand Means Committee, but was told the Democrats had finally decided on the measure and would put it through the House. M r. R. M , M iller, J r., of Char lotte, chairman of the committee on tariff and legislation of the associa tion, was equally convinced that the new tariff would work havoc with the cotton industry., / M r. Lewis W 4 Parker Lot Green ville, S. C., one o f the leading cotton m ill men of that State.-said: “ This bill w ill bring disaster on the cotton textile industry df the Sohtherii States. The reductions made In the cotton schedule are not alone too: radical, but it cuts too deeply all down the line. Ifa m a n has beefi upon stilts, you can cut down his stilts without throwing and crippling him. This bill cuts away below the danger mark. I used to think I was a Democrat, but if 0u f party be lieves in this kind of tariff revision it leaves me In doubt as to where w ill land politically.” Hunt is New Postm aster. The fight is finished, the blow has fallen, and M r. E. E. Hunt, o f this city, is to be our new postmaster.

Washington, A pril 7.— Five hun dred women suffragists, represent ing almost every congressional dis tric t in the country, armed w ith petitions demanding a constitutional amendment fo r votes fo r women, marched to the Capitol todav and delivered their demands in person to their Congressmen. In marked con trast w ith the disorderly scenes whieh attended the suffrage parade here on March 3, when unruly crowds swamped the police, the marchers today moved over perfectly cleared streets and ujjSder a police guard which was almost as numerous as the suffragists. W hen the procession reached the interior of the Capitol building, Miss Alice Paul, who headed it. was greet ed by Representative Bryan of Wash ington, who halted the marchers long enough to make an address of welcome. H e deelared "there were enough men in the Senateand House to make it certain that the flag of woman suffrage never would be pull ed down in the United States.” . IUside the rotunda a party of Sen ators greeted the women. Among them were Senators Brady, LaFol- lette, Jones, Shafroth, Poindexter, Townsend, Sutherland and Thomas. As each of the women passed, the Senators shook hands and assured them that they were in favor of their fight and would support the measure that is to be introduced in Congress. Each o f the women' fearried into the Capitol a copy o f a .petition to the members of Congress asking support fo r equal suffrage legisla tion. Formal resolutional proposing con stitutional amendments giving wo men the rig kt to vote were iptroduc ed in both houses of Cdngress to gether w ith scores of petitions and memorials from various societies and individuals. Senator Chamber- la in of Oregon and Representative Mondell of Wyoming introduced re solutions in their respective houses fo r the constitutional amendments. Robbers Operating in Mitchell and Avery Counties. A dispatch to the Charlotte Ob server from Newland, Avery county, says it appers that a band of post- office robbers are operating in Avery and Mitchell counties. Friday night the postoffice at New land was broken open and robbed of $116 in stamps and about $3 in cash. A small store in the village was also entered the same night and about 30 pennies taken from the cash drawer. Justa few nights previous the store of W. S. DanielsatVale, a half mile from Newland, in which is lo cated the postoffice, was entered, the safe blown .open, stamps and money being taken. Thissame store' was entered about 10 days ago and more than $100 worth of stamps taken. , Montezuma postoffice also suffered from the yeggmen Friday night, the safe being blown into fragments and stamp^ and cash secured, amount unknown. The Preacher Dispute at Spencer. The series of j'oint church debates between Rev. J. L . Vipperman, pas tor of,Spencer Baptist church, and Rev. J. B. Briney, pastor of the Christian church in Louisville, Ky., which took place at Spencer and con tinued for eight nights, two hours each night being devoted to the dis cussion, closed last Wednesday night. Thediscussion w asonthe doctrines of their respective denominations. It may have been illum inating, pos sibly inform ing, b u t'it’s hardly pro bable that anybody professed re ligion as a result of the argument. On the contrary it is probable that many people were aroused to strong er feeling on the doctrines, of their faith and a feeling of unkindness to ward their brethren of their faiths, and w ill become more concerned a- bout their doctrines than about the religon of Jesus; and it is also pro bable that the ungodly were not im pressed with a religion about which there can be such wide difference a n d strong disputes.—Statesville Landmark.

If the good roads bill is down in May, it means that Davie county will not amount to much dur ing the twentieth century. H - Most of the.prominent men in the county are in favor of the good roads bill. AU those who have the interest of the county at heart will vote for this measure. We are a lot more interested in the bond issue for good roads than we are in the ball games and the hap penings in Washington. The welfare of every citizen of the county is at stake at this time, and we should do everything in our power to belp lift Davie out of the mud. The Record doesn’t publish every thing it hears. We have several reasons for this. The first and fore most one is that we have a family that are dependent on us for sup port, and should we be taken from this vale of tears suddenly, it would leave our loved ones in danger of want and privation.

We wish to' earnestly request every voter in the county to read the road bill care fully, and see if it is not to their best interest to vote fo r-it. The election comes off in a little more than a month, and every person who is interested in the welfare of the county should get busy and help us to .-carry this election for good roads. A DEMOCRATIC MOVE. We had hoped that an independent ticket would be put out in Mocks- ville this year, but not so. Jacob Stewart, Democratic Chairman, has called a meeting of the Democrats of the town to meet in the court house and nominate a ticket for the various offices. So long as the old ring runs things in this town, but little progress will be made. A num ber of Democrats have expressed their willingness to put out good men, irres pective of party, but it seems that the old crowd cannot stand the thonghts of such a thing.

I Ailes of Railroai -West Summer Flowers to W inter Snows. : cinrlouo Oi.=f:erver. iGth. The pasienge13 on No. 11 Monday t om Salisbury to Asheville witnesse- edavt’ry unusual sight. The day had IxWin with bright warm sun shine. and the flowers of field and wood were beautiful against the background of green. As the train pushed its way up the slopes of the Blue llidge characteristic A p r il weather was encountered—sunshine mingled witIi rain, with the birds singing and the gentle breezes blow ing” Spring was very much in evi dence, but that is not the remarkable !part of I he story, for it was but natural for Spring to be here in April. Mat Iheremarkable part is this: During the brief space of less than sixty seconds they were rushed from the midst of Springand flowers and April showers to the w hirling of sivirling of a wintery clime, with three inches of snow on the ground and the fleecy flakes still falling—as one gentleman expressed it, “ as big as sunflowers.” It was beautiful Summer as they went into the east ern entrance of the Swananoa tun nel, but it was beastly w inter when they emerged on the western side. One man had gazed out upon the beautiful valley of the Catawba be fore the ridge was reached, and had become so infatuated with the spirit I of coming Summar that he fell as- i leep, and perhaps he dreamed of re- ! freshing breezes, of the aroma of j floivei-s and the song of birds. But I just as the train emerged from the Swannaoa and started on the down- I grade, the brakes were applied and I the sleeper was rudely awakened I from his Summer dreams. He look ed out upon the landscape where everything was covered w ith , snow. t Heheard the wintry winds whistling I and saw the fleecy flakes falling. A I look of amazement covered his face. He looked at his fellow-travelors and then he looked at the snow again. : He rubbed his eyes and' again he : looked,- Hepulledhis watch from his pocket at it for a moment and then held it to his ear to m ake. sure that it was running, Finnafly he called the porter who was passing by and said, “John, how long have I beenaleep,” and the expression on iiis face would have done credit to Jefferson in his portrayal of Rip Van Winkle, for certainly the m a n thought he had slept all Summer. How to Keep Good Roads. IVe should have men, living a long our roads, whose duty it should be to drag the roads as often as they need it, to till and smooth ever depressions before they wear into holes and ruts, and to look alter and keep up the roads gen- eraHy. Divide the roads into sec tions of staled lengths and let out the upkeep of each section by con- hact. Have a road inspector for fitch couuiy, whose duty shall be to give his whole time to the in spection of the roads of the county awl to report aDy non performance of duty that may occur. Require that the inspector be thoroughly qualified to fill his position. Re* iuire both contractors and inspec tors to give bond for the faith ful Porforiuance of their duty. hat is everyhod’s business is" nobody’s business” is an old - and tll'e saying, M a k e th e u p k e e p o f 0urWads “somebody’s” business “ml we wiil have good roads at less ffIuit bad roads now cost us. ff0lIb: have them until we do.

A fter The Women. Declaring that the immodesty of the attire worn by women in the streets and in public places is the cause of “ a great wave ot im m or a lity now sweeping over the conn try .” Representative Louis H . Capelle, of Cincinnati, Illiuois, in troduced a b ill in the LowerHouse of the Legislature a few days ago providing for the appointment by the- Governor of a commission of three members to “ prescribe the fashions to be worn by women in the State oe O hio.” - Under the provisions of the b ill, the proposed commissioil would be compelled to fix lim its on decol- lette dresses, so that “ not more than two inches of the neck below the cbin shall be uncovered,” A n other clause of the measure pro vids “ that transparent stockings shall not be displayed or worn in public places.” Another provisisn of the lu ll states that “ it shall be unlaw ful to display or wear auy outer garment trim m ed or combined w ith lace, inserting. t»r any kind of em broidery mesh or net through which the coler or texture of the skin may be distinguished without having the lace or other trans parent m aterial backed w ith op aque m aterial,” Members of the proposed com mission according to the b ill would have to be between th irty and fifty years of age. N ot more than two of them would have to be married men, and “ of good moral char-, acter.” One of the members would be an ordained m inister, one a parent of not less than three children, and the th ird a social and settlement worker. The commission wonld be auth orized to “ prescribe rules and regulations for the designing and manufacture of women’s clothing and to prohibit such styles and patterns of garments as the com mission after hearing shall deem to be detrim ental to virtue and chastity.” The b ill goes so far as to prohibit departm ent stores from displaying unddrapee artificial figures. The b ill makes a violation of the act punishable by a fine of not less than $25. Pains in the Stomach. If you continually complain of pains in the stomach, your liver or your kidneys are out of order. Neglect may lead to dropsy, kidney trouble, diabetes or Bright’s disease. Thousands recommend Blectic Bitters as the very best stomach and kid ney medicine made. H. T. Alston, of Raleigh, N. C., who suffered with pain in the stomach and back, writes: “My kid neys were deranged and my liver did not work right. I suffered much, but Eiectic Bitters was recommended and I improved from the first ’dose. I now feel like a new m an.” It will improve you, too. Only 50c. and $1.00. Recommended by all dealers.

For many years the people of this section have killed them by the hundreds and there are always strings of them on the market. Better not do it again this year. Uncle Sam has taken the robins under his own protecting wing and you k ill them at yeur peril. If you don’t want to find yourself headed for the Federal Frison at A tlanta Georgiachaperoned by a Federal officer, you had better let robin redbreast severely alone. A law was passed a few., months ago providing protection for these birds that m igrate from one State to an Other and a ll of these migrating birds belong to Uncle Sam.— M or ganton Messenger.

Which is The Best Way.\ Everybody can see that the old free labor system of working roads is a failure. The system is a relic of barbarism handed down from the days of Queen Elizabeth and has not been successful in any conn try. I t has been abolished in every civilized country, except North Carolina, and it is being a- bolished here as rapidly as possible. There are two other ways of building roads, both of which have been successful. For instance, Mecklenburg coun ty has built a magnificent system of macadamized roads by the use of a direct tax and convicts during period of forty years. The roads of Mecklenburg county are the county’s biggest asset and these famous roads have been one of the biggest advertisements the state has ever had, but the system has been expensive and has. cost M eck lenburg in direct tax and convicts about four m illion dollars. W hile this is expensive, yet, it is the best investment that has ever been made in, Mecklenburg county. The result is that Mecklenburg is one, of the richest and best counties in N orth Carolina and is one of the best known counties in the south, and Charlotte is one of the best cities in the state. The progressive citizens of G u il ford county watched the progress of Mecklenburg and realized, about thirty-five years after Mecklenbura began the building of her magnifi cent roads, that they had waited too long to depend on ta t and con victs and that their only hope of becoming one o f the leading coun ties, of ,the state, was to issue bonds and to build a system of roads at once. So G uilford counfy voted a $300,- OOO bond issue and built one hun dred miles of fine macadam road, which gave them the finest system of roads of any county in the state, a better system of roads 1 than Mecklenburg had. This system only cost Guilford $300,000, while Mecklenburg’s system of roads cost four m illion dollars, and M ecklen burg was forty,years building her roads. G uilford county was between three and four years building her system, which is superior to tne Meckledburgsystem of roads; so it is plain to anyone that the only way to build a good system of roads in any county quick and economically is to issue bonds and borrow the,money at a low rate of interest and build the roads in three or four years, so that this generation can enjoy the benefits and blessings, and at* the same time leave a rich heritage to' the next generation. The levy in Guilford county for their $300,000 bond issue is only 12 I 3 cents on the $i00 and 37 cents on the poll. That 12. 1-3 cents pays the interest on the bonds, createa a sinking fund, which ufill pay the bonds off when they become due and they have between $50,000 and $60,000 left over annually to extend their road building into the various parte of the county and to maintain the macadam and the d irt roads.— Lexington Dispatch.

A man in another town who never advertises was quoted as say ing the other day: “ The people of this town know my store well enough, and they know me. I f they want to buy anything I have, they w ill come around and see m e.” Ic ipay be admitted that the peo: pie who have lived there, right a long iknow of the existence of this store,, but what do they know a bout it? The people all know about the ceme|ery, but they don’t go there much except when some friend - is buried. People don’t care to bother much owadays about stores unless they believe the owners thereof are en terprising men. They want to deal w ith mer chants who are wide wake enough to get* good bargains and who have enough spirit of hustle to reach out tor p. large trade and thus reduce the costs of rent, clerk hire, taxes and other “ overhead charges.” The man who never solicits pu blic patronage may impress people as too parsive to look after their interests attentivefy. — Winston Sentinel. 1 8 - V - M I GO TO I'""- I E.

The Record is the only paper print ed in Davie county. Advertisers would do well to bear this in mind. California and Japan are trying to get up a little_war all of their own.

I f you or your friend failed to get a copy of TheRecord lastweek which contained the good roads bill, drop us a line and we w ill mail you a sample. TheRecord doesn’t want to be called upon to go through another panic, and we trust the boys in Washingtonwill tread softly, for they are traveling over dangerous ground. A big sign near the depot at Salis bury reads thus: “ Salisbury is the Place.” It doesn’t explain what place, but we noticed in the Post that the boys of that village were busy guarding seven hundred gallons of the fluid that exhilerates. ■ It is only five weeks until the good roads election. Every man in Davie county should make a trip over our good road from MocksviIle to the Rowan line before the election, which would mean that the bond issue would carry by a big majority. /■' Davidson county voted last Tues day remain in the mud, which is a greater reason that Davie should go the other way. W ith good roads in Davie county, many citizens of other counties will move in and cast their lot with us. . The Charlotte Observer very truth fully says:, “ London dispatches state that the cotton and woolen trades of Great Britain are delighted with our pend ing tariff bill. They certeinly have cause to be. It could not suit them TOueh better if they had- exercised the framing of it themselves.” A fter fighting for months for good roads for Davidson county and then fleeing the mud tax win, we know that Editor Varner, of the Dispatch must feel mighty gloomy at this time. But here’s wishing him bet ter luck when the next opportunity is given the voters of Davidson eoun tv to redeem their county from the mud curse. Trip to Woodleaf. The editor spent several hours in the pretty little village of Wood leaf last week. W e fo u n d a ll the people whom we met to be very clever and accomodating. Wood leaf has five stores, - three black-. smith shops, a sawmill, two cotton gins, three chuiches, a good school w ith Prof. C. O. W olf, Misses Beu lah Pinkston and Miss M ary Bail* ey as teachers. A number of very handsome homes are to be found in the village. The stores are owned by John H . Rise, S. F . La- zenby & Son, Campbell Bios., H . Cranford and Lippard & Son. A U of these gentlemen are clever smd.accomodating. The village is located about one mile south of Sherailioad station. A number o f flne truck farms are to be found in this section. M r. R . B . BaiIej la one of the biggest truckers iu Rowan. H ean d his son, I . T .

These ':|?i|»tts are !placed On- the m arket aarlj^ and command a faucy price. Tbeir farm is known ae the ‘ ‘Oioverdale Fai m ,” and the name is very appropriate, as we saw a field of the finest clover in this sec tion of the State on this farm. One - of WoodleaPs most tru th lu l citi zens tells us that there is a cow In In to that village that is raising and nourishing two pigs. Can any other town in the State com* up to this. W e came near forgetting to state that Woodleaf has a good telephone system.

I t was only w ith the greatest difficulty that the distracted man was prevented from throwing him self into the sea, and he was re moved to the police station sobbing The charge was of course only a formal one, but he declared in heart broken tones “ M ay the judge be m erciful and sentence me to death, for I do not want to liv e .” tetter From Mr. E.
