APRIL I, 1914.NUMBER 39 Past And Present. [ Mr Inez Smith in Southern Ruralist. I live out in tbe country four a ll ( i liiilf miles from tow n, on th e I vunc f a r ® 1 was reared on, and in 'I vicinity which I consider has made sreat progress w ithin th e WlSt thirty years. When I was a child farm ers vere not- considered am ong w hat was called first-class people. T hey Jere tlie '1Poor PeoPle-” T h*y T0)ked a* hard, even hard er, then than i"nv>:iml m atlJr 011 them could lnicly keep the wolf from tbe door. Their crops were m ostly corn and Jhilt was all cousum ed a t hom e. Thev made nothing to sell. W h at few chickens and eggs th ey could spare went for coffee an d sugar. Some of them m anaged to have biscuit for breakfast on Sunday morning*’ Land that produced from ten to gffeen bushels of corn per acre with the work w hich w as given it then will produce th irty to forty bushels with tbe w ork w hich is given it now. fThe reason! W ell, it is simply this. F arm ers have been reading good papers— th e Ru- ruljst, for instance—and are be ginning to wake up on th e subject of farming, T h e y a re c lim b in g to the top ot the ladder, so to speak, and aie now looked a t as first class people. That is, the u p to date farmers. Xow one man w ith a one-horse farm can raise corn plenty and some to sell, from tw o to three bales of cotton for sale and plenty of all kinds of vegetables for hom e use while his wife looks after the chickens and eggs, w hich will bring twice the m oney th ey used to. And the butter plays an im - portant part, too. I know , for I sold HS pounds a t 25 cents the pound last year from one cow and kept all we could m ake use of a t home. Well, what was th ere to m ake the larger children like hom e m ore than any other place, w ith ju st hard work, barely enough to eat and to wear! N o outside w ork could be found th a t could be done that there was an y m oney m . Fathers could not spare an acre or so for the boys to experim ent on. The girls were not allow ed a cotton patch, f jr they d id n ’t p lan t cotton here. Well, how did they m anage to get a little pocket change! Those whom I knew d id n ’t get it. Xow fathers w ill gladly let th e hoys have an acre or tw o for th eir own use and the girls m ay have a cotton patch, too. I am not con demning the fathers of th irty years ago; no, by no m eans, for if any child ever loved a father, I loved mine. Well, back to the subject. T his betterment came about through a better knowledge of farm ing, th e use of more and better fertilizers. Xow after the crop is m ade if there is any leisure the young m an can find plenty of work near his hom e which will pay him from 75 cents to ssl per day. T he girls m ay find plenty of tim e in w hich to do all kinds of fancy w ork w hich is so highly prized these days. Schools were only th ree m onths in the year w ith a g reat distance for most children to go through bad weather. W hen “ we” reach ed the school house it was m ade of logs with cracks betw een them large enough for th e c h ild re n 'to Rn through. M e were expected to study noth ing but W ebster’s blue backed speller until we com pleted it. Now those houses are replaced w ith nice little boxed, ceiled ones w ith blackboards m ode in th e end or side, and heaters ta k e th e p l'a c e of fiieplaces. The schools are five montns instead of . three.’ T he children have plenty of good clothes to keep them eom fortoble, and in stead of one little speller th e little fiIx year-old child is required to take a reader or prim er, tablet- and pencil, colored crayons and draw ing paper. T he m ail is a g reat help in keep ing th e young people a t hom e. W e used to have to go four an d a half m iles for our m ail an d th en got very little. N ow o u r good m ail carrier brings us a lot of good pa pers, catalogues and all k inds of literatu re rig h t to o u r door, w hich is enjoyed by th e w hole fam ily. In fact, I th in k th e ru ra l free delivery is one of th e greatest betterm ents of today. I really do not see how we could get along w ithout it, we are so anxious to see th e papers and h ear w hat, others are doing and th e news in general. People are exchanging ideas and each one try in g , to see w ho can raise th e m ost stuff on the sm allest piece of ground, w hile they used to th in k th e larg er th e ' piece of ground th e m ore they would m ake. I f you don’t believe papers are a g reat help itow ard ru ra l better-. meat, try tak in g som e good ones. Now , for fear I m ake m y letter too long, I w ill hush by saying for your own sake, and for th e ch ild ren’s sake, and for the sake Of our dear-F ath er who w atches over us, give your children em ploym ent and enjoym ent an d keep them from going to town to h u u t a job.

W hile he and his brother w ere on the new ground a tree fell on him and broke one leg and bruised him badly about the head, he is no better a t this tim e. Y esterday m orning, 19th, while sitting by the Sre1Veading a paper, M r. H enry Peeler, an aged and w ealthy citizen of this section, died suddenly- H e ate his breakfast as usual, he first complained of being cold, then of a severe pain in his stom ach. H e fell back in his chair and by the tim e they got him in the bed he was gone, all in a few m inutes. The funeral takes place a t Christian church the 20th. This township free school contest takes place a t Rowan Academy today the 20th. Some take m uch interest in it, others do not. This week two negroes beat and robbed a -m an.-near; New: London.; The m an is still living. The negroes w ere im m ediately pursued and after being badly wounded one of them was caught, while the other one was was shot a t fifteen tim es, he mdd.e his escape for the tim e. The. next day he was seen near G ranite Q uarry, he was again ,pursued, b u t as he could still run like a turkey he again m ade his escape a fte r a chase of four miles. B ut he was later captured near Salisbury and it was found th at he had one bullet hole through his leg, one through his left side and plenty of shot in his back. W ith all this he.could outrun the men. from G ranite Q uarry. Hope all such negroes will be taken back to Africa.

In every community therV are a few people of wealth, who do prac tically nothing to help advance com m unity interests, but on vthe con trary dodge as much as possible of their share of the public burdens. They are content to let others do the work while they reap benefits-to which they contribute nothing. If we allowed ourselves to thi.pk about these people, we would not only make remarks that might cause a breach of the peace, but we would all refuse, because these,shirkers will not do their part, to do any thing to advance the community and instead of progress there would be stagnation. But that won’t do The great m ajority of our people are public-spirited and they gladly help on the cause of progress.

There are a good many liars in- this county. One or more of them have been telling it around that while The Herald was published in Mocksville we did the county print ing for $30 per year—that as soon as the other paper died we went up to a couple of hundred dollars. Both lies. We never received $30 per year for the county printing and didn’t go up a couple of hundred, but we did-go so high when the pond issue carried, on account of the, extra printing to do, that we scared the entire Board of Commissioners so bad that they even forgot to award the contract to anybody. The Record don’t know whatt has become of Trade Day, the Board of Trade and the boys.who were so en thusiastic about the matter last fall. We had hoped to have a Trade Day in April, and mentioned the matter several times, but could get no re" sponse. The Record is willing to do all it can, but it doesn’t propose to do all the work, with the assistance of only two or three men as was the case iast year.. If the citizens of the town will get behind Usi and help push, we are willing to do all in our power to make a success of this mat ter. CHar advertising, work and time will be given gladly without money and without pYiee, but we want at least a few others to give of their time. Suppose the Board of Trade awake from their winter sleep, call a meeting and decide at once to have I a Trade Day the first Monday in May? How about; it, boys? Don’t all speak at once. < Merchants And Fanners’ Bank. The stockholders of the Merchants &. Farmers’ Bank of Mocksville met. in this following officersthecity Monday, and were elected: President—J.

The new bank hopes to be able to begin business by April 20th. The bank will occupy the building recently vacated by The Record office. The meet was well at tended, and all parts of the county , was represented by stockholders. There is no reason why the new bank should not do a good business. ' The political pot has begun to sim mer just a little in D^vie. There are three of the boys -wanting to be register, two or three are looking with longing eyes toward the sheriff’s k office, two or more hope to land the treasurer’s job, while the minor, of fices will doubtless go begging.

The C ole Spreader Plants Cotton, Corn, Peas, Beans, peanuts and other Seed At one trip the Cole Planter smooths the bed,1 opens’a furrow, mixes guaho with the soil, covers.it, opens again, plants the and covers th em in the most accurate man ner.

You get a quick start, get two chances at a big crop. rm~ -> The Cole Planter plantstlie seed in a straight line at the same depth. The depth.is easily regulated.

During the next three years of Wilson’s “ prosperity” the game of suicide is apt to be a very popu lar entertainment, and I see that the manufacturers of bichloride of mercury tablets are getting ready . for it. Heretofore people who have made up their minds to take the bicloride route to heaven have had to run the great risk of swallo ving a headache tablet by mistake. Such blunders are very annoyiDg, especially under a Democratic ad ministration when a feller is down and out and in a hurry to get avray from it all. And therefore, as a means ot preventing such mistakes in the future, the enterprising drug manufacturers have begun to pat up the bichloride tablets in the shape of a coffin. That is a good idea. Uow a poor, despond ent feller can pick out his “go to heaven” dose in the dark or ' any where, just by the shape of it, and there won’t be any more danger of swallowing a headache tablet- by mistake.

When that time comes to you, you know what tonic to take—Carduii the woman's tonic. Cardui is com posed of purely vegetable ingredients, which act gently, yet surely, on the weakened womanly organs, : and helps build them back to strength and health. It has benefited thousands and thousands of weak, ailing women in its past half; century of wonderful success, and it will do the same for you. You can’t -make a ,mistake in taking The Woman’s Tonic Miss Amelia Wilson, R F. D. No. 4, Alma, Ark., says: “I think Cardui is the greatest medicine on earth, for women. Before I began to take Cardui, I was so weak and nervous, : and had such awful dizzy spells and a poor appetite. Now I feel as well and as strong as I ever did, and can eat most anything.” Begin taking Cardui today. Sold by all dealers. Has Helped Thousands. Shriner's Spedal To Atlanta Via Southern Railway.

So far as we know, there is not a town in North Carolina that needs a depot worse than we do. This is more work for the Board of Trade. A gentleman from South Calahaln told us one day recently that if the county would give South Calahaln half the money that she was collect ing from her for good rords, that Calahaln could build as good roads as she needed and let the taxpayers keep half their money Such is life. Many of the State papers are filled with announcements of candidates asking for various county offices. We noticed ten announcements in a Rowan paper a few days ago, and five or six ip an Iredell Daper Al) of which leads us to believe that the Democrats would accept a piece of pie if it came their way. It is re par ted that Iredell county has spsnt her last cent on good roads. That being the case, we wonder where Iredell is going- to get the money to build her part of the State Highway from Cool Spring to Coun ty Line? But we hope the report will prove to be erroneous. It would be bad indeed if Davie builds to Ire dell county and then stumbles upon a mudhole three miles long. Sheffield News. D. P. Dyson had a shopping Thursday, a Jarge crowd present.

Thepeople of Davie county will continue to go to other towns to do their trading so long as the mer chants in other towns advertise and the home iherchant is afraid of print-, er’s ink. There are twenty one stores in Mocksville, and of that number at least fifteen seldom if ever advertise. The ones who adver tise get the business. Try a dose of tfur ink and see how much it helps you The Newton News says there is an unwritten law that no county officer in Catawba can have more than two J terms and that under this regulation the register, sheriff and clerk win retire this year.

W e see it printed in all the pa pers that President W ilson wants to see the railroads have some re lief. He knows that with every thing increasing in price and wages going up all the tim e that railroadB need money; they can’t keep on at old prices. Therefore he has ex pressed a desire to help them obtain relief in any legitim ate way. President Wilson should be careful. M any of the Democratic politicians in North Carolina want to drive the railroads to the last ditch. They want to take away all their earnings and put them on the bum. They Bay they do not—but actions sometimes speak louder than words. W e want to see the railroads pros per and then we will prosper. That is oar platform. Construction and not destruction.

The proprie tors haye so much faitli in its cura How Is This? It is springtime, gentle Annie. Nature now spreads her beauties with lavish hands on every hill and dale. Birds, grass, blossoms, leaves now sweeten the bieezes and glad'- den the hearts of man and bird and beast. The plow-boy’s whistle livens woodland and vale. The merry milk-maids, with cheeks aglow with rustic beauty, with hearts as light as the zephyrs that play about her tresses, now sings her magic ditty in tone with the songbiid in the old apple tree. The streams and rivers murmur along their rocky mossy baDks singing a new song of hope and joy and sweetness that charms the weary traveler by the wayside. The lure of Nature is bewitching. As the siren that lives in the ocean depths sings her luring song to the sailor boys on the ship so endearing, so irresistable, so nature now lures us on and on from scenes of sin and toil and sorrow, to the fields and forests and water courses. The barefoot boy now seeks the creek and ,river to fish and swim as na tnrally as the needle turns to the pole. Even the man who has no music in his soul whose life is hedged about with facts and fig ures, now loves to linger by the riverside av the sun goes down and the stars come up and his thoughts assume a softer aspect as he remem bers the far off dayB of his boyhood when he was a barefood boy play ing in the wildwood, . beside the ‘ bonny brier bush, ” or was ‘ •swing ing in the grape-vine swing.’’ SpriDg brings forth from all the best that is in us of heart aud brain and memory.

Every time heretofore that we have sent a candidate to the Legis lature from our county,” said a public spirited citizen to the writer yesterday, “ we have been buying a pig in a poke. We didn’t know where he stood about, anything. In-fact, a candidate seemed to think it his chief purpose to keep the people from knowing where he stood instead of to let.them know.” “But we are going to change all that this year,” he went on, “I don’t know who’s going to be our Senator, but one thing sure, he has got to tell the people where he stands. He has got to give us his platform.” It is to be hoped that voters in a thousand counties in the South are feeling the same way.

Rebels Gain Another Victory. jgarezi Mexico, April 14.-A Binednys' battle, possibly more desperate thau that at Gomez Pa- lacio aod Torreou; has resulted in a victory to the rebels under Gen. Francisco Villa, according'to an official report made public here late today. Iiie combined rebel force came upon the reunited Federate, 'said j„ the last days of the battle to have numbered 15,000 ut San Pe- dro de las Oolinias, State of Cea- huila, 10 miles east of Torreon. Killed and wounded on both sides, it is said, will number in the neighborhood of 3,000. The rebels claimed to have taken 700 prisoners. The Federal Army is said to have included the Tor- reou garrison, led out of that eity in retreat by General Velasco, those of General Maas, General Hidalgo, General De Moure and two others.____________ Mexico Must Salute Us. ... Washington, April 14.—Presi dent Wilson today ordered virtu ally the entire Atlantic fleet to Mexican waters to force a public salute to the Stars and Stripes from the Huerta Government as an apology for the arrest of American marines at Tampico last Thursday. Coming Back From Canada. Washington Post. “If you ask the Canadians they will tell yon that American farmers are emigrating into their territory in great numbers and that none who las gone into the Dominion iBteturning to the United States,” remarked Henry A: Fairton,- of Topeka, Kan., at the Willard, “The fact is, and it can be proved by the statistics of the immigration office of either country, I believe, that while the preponderance ot immigration is on the side of Can- ada the difference in the number of of those who have left the United States, and those wha have come across the border into this country is less than 25,000. To be exact, the number of Americans who Lave left this country for Canada in the last six years is 618,000, whereas, 594,000 Canadians have moved to the United States. “A few years ago the allurements held out by the Canadian immi gration agents attracted many of our Western farmers. Dissatisfac tion among Americans who have sold their farms and gone into the Dominion has accompanied many. ‘‘It is doubtless true that lands tan be purchased in Canada mnch cheaper than in the United States, acd the tremendous increase in farm values has nndonbtedly caused •cany ot our farmers to sell out and fflove to Canada, but bo soon as they have found that the land values in their own country have increased more rapidly than in Canada they have come back home. “To my mind it is far more im portaut to consider the extraordin ary sum of money that has been invested in Canadian industries. According to the figures there is noles3 than 8636,900,000 ot Ameri can money invested inlhe Domin ion.” ' to Poor Old Buzzard. Tio^ressiAe Farmer.

NUMBER 41 That Little Word “Obey.” Yes, wives have been talking about it all these years—that little word “Obey” that is sometimes used when we promise “ for better or for worse,” aiid to use it or not to use it has no doubt puzzled many a good minister when called upon to perform the ceremony uni ting men and women in holy wed-i lock. Many of us who long have crossed the border line, and long lost sight o f the word with relation to ourspecific ceremony, are not interested in the form at all—at least in a direct, personal way_ but for the sake of peace and har mony in the families of the land we are interested. Declaring that this simple little word has alwayB been a stumbling block in the mar riage serviee, and served to point many a joke, the editor of the Presbyterian Standard, himself a minister with first handed infor mation and experience, after giving the history of the rise aud fall of the world, end by declaring in favor of its being discarded. He says in closing his brief discourse on this matter; “ A good woman is going to obey as far as she ean do so and preserve her self respect, and one not good is not going to do so, however much she may have promised. For these and other reasons we would like to see the word omitted from the service.” This shows decided progress in a reform mauy are boldly standing standing lor. Does it mark the beginning of the end?—Yadkiu Valley Herald. WKo Is To Feed The Convict’s Family? When a young husband and father commits an awful crime and is sent to the penitentiary for thirty years, the State may hire him out for $1.00 a day and thus put more than nine thousand gold dollars into the State treasury. W hat about his wifs and chil- dren? If the wife has no home and no money to buy one, we may ex pect her soon to break down in trying to feed, clothe and shelter those children. They ought to have a part of the nine thousand dollars. Let the Legislature re quire county commissioners to look into such cases.—A. D. Betts in Ghristian Advocate. Check Your April Cough.

We learned yesterday that the Triangle Orchards near PoorsKnob yielded about 1,600 bushels .of ap pies last season which are, or much of them at least, now being put up on the market.

Nothing So Good For A Cough Of Cold. W henyouhaveacold you want the best medicine obtainable so as to get n of it with the least possible delay.

S The ‘‘Rump Party.” Shakespeare said there is noth ing much in a name, but he was not a politician and didn’t know everything. Anyhow, a Uew par ty is obliged to have a name—Bull Moose, Populist, etc.—and so it is necessary to provide one for the party of Josiah William Bailey, Poe and Alexander. To forecast the future, we' must study history, and turning to the most famous civil revolution in history as the logical lesson, we find the name of “The Bump Par liament” applied to the Oliver Cromwell crowd in 1648 after they had excused the old gang from further attendance. Hence the new organization in FTorth Carolina is to be known as 1The Bump Party.” H atsoff to it, gentlemen, and its ticket com posed; of Bailey for Boss, Poe for Governor and Alexander for Com missioner of Agriculture. Tuere are only three certain things about the Bump party at this time, and they are that they will succeed in murdering the Pro gressive movement and the Farm ers’ Union and will furnish the Bepublicans with all the campaign thunder they want. The Bump Conventioh can not be considered; anything else but an admission on the part of all who are responsible for it, that the Democratic party in this State iB incompetent. It is the rottenest egg that has been thrown in Horth Carolina politics in a long time.—Madison Herald, (Democratic.) Rather Late. Greensboro News. ; It. is too late ~ to worry about smirching our national honor; if freedom from tolls will have that effect. Three parties took that sort of stand about two years ago, and we fail to see how it is going to reflect any great degree of credit upon ub, if we only recede from our position under foreigh pressure. Assuming that we have done some* thing dishonorable, is this lost hon or to be restored by reversing an act of Congress, to the end that the President may be assured of aid from some foreign government Tn dealing with matters of greater de- licaoy and of nearer consequence?” And the question of oar national honor apart, even Mr. Lodge says the United States has a perfect legal right to exempt our coastwise merchant marine Irom the payment of tells. y Strengthens Weak and Tired Wo men. ‘I was under a great strain nursing a relative through three months’ sickness,’ writes Mrs. J.

President Wilson, through O’Sha- ughnessy,.emphatically replied that the time for delay and evasion had passed and that the United States would temporize no longer.

Has Bad Effed on Some—Dodson’s Liver Tone Takes Its Place and-Is Perfectly Harmless. If you will inquire at Crawford’s Drug Store yon will find that Dod son’s Liver Tone is guaranteed to be a safe, reliable remedy to take the place of calomel and a harm less liuer stimulant having no bad after effects. Indeed, any of these firms will refund purchase price (50e.) without question if you are in any way dissatisfied with this vegetable liquid. It is very unwise to take calo mel, even dangerous, as many peo pie suffer from the poison after wards, even though they may ap pear at first to be temporarily re lieved. On the other hand, Dod son’s Liver Tone works easily and naturally (really assisting nature) with no pain nor gripe and correct ing all bilious conditions and ills of constipation, clearing away the sick headache and the coated tongue, brightening up the dulled brain and strengthening the weak ened body at the same time that it removes collected waste from . the overburdened system. Those who have tried Dodson’s Liver Tone have found that it made them healthier and happier. A test may prove of great benefit to you right now. The Mail Order House. Everything.

Toledo, O.- ADVERTISEMENT High Cost of Living. The New York Central Railroad has laid off 27,600 men since Sep tember I. On the Erie 6,000 men hare been laid off since December, Today comes the news that the Pennsyvania.Railroad will follow its recently announced policy of retrenchment by annuling 118 pas senger trains and by laying off 25.000 men east rf Pittsburg and 15.000 west of that point. It is further said that Jhis move toward economy will save the Pennsylvania system no less than $2,000 000 if it is in force as lougas a year. How’ ever, this may be, and whatever it may show concerning the conditions of the country it must be remem bered that right now there is very good reason for the railroads to wonder at the precise turn which legislation now under advisement will take, and to undertake steps for turning aside this legislation. The main and outstanding fact of it all, and one -which eannot fail to strikejhe ordinary observer, is the immense authority of one system when practically 50,000 workmen are thrown out of employment and left to their o w resources in the matter of tnpport Ior themselves and for their families. Coming at this time when the sections of the country through which new orders will operate are just emerging from a serious crisis of unemployment, the addition of 50,000 jobless men will not be a slight matter. One fears to think of the consequence to public service to the lives of the working men everywhere if every eystem should undertake a curtail ment similar to this. The High Cost of Living would then have a corollary, the High Cost of Loaf ing.—Charlotte Observer, Hot Politics. Charlotte Chronicle. This year gives promise of break ing all records lor strenuous poli tics, especially for an off year and in the south. Ih Tennessee the discord is heard throughout the nation, and has even attracted the attention of the president and other high officials who have been lend ing aid in an attempt to get the warring factions cease their strife. Alabama has for a year been the centre of probably its greatest polL tical battle. Mississippi is in the midst of a row which has not been equaled since the days of recon struction. South Carolina ' is be ginning to warm up to her biennial strife and the indications are that it will exhibit no moie tameness than in past. Virginia is now stirrtd up over the prohibition question, and- the fight threatens to shake }he whole state as it has not been for many years. Georgia is rather quiet but will doubtless be heard from before many, weeks North Carolina is also rather slow in gettiDg red hot, but- beginning with the meeting of the progres sives there will doubtless be plenty of action. Thus it would seem that the year 1914 will go down in history as one of lurid politics throughout the south. Spedal Train to Jacksonville, via Southern Railway.

MEXICANS JOIN FORCES AND DEFY UNCLE SAM: Caranza Declares That America is Making War on The Whole of Mexico. Washington, April 22—General Carranza’s note to President Wil son declaring that the seizure of Vera Cruz by American foreign for- ces was a violation of the national sovereignty of Mexico and inviting the United States to suspend hostile relations and withdraw its forces and suggesting that the constitu tionalist government should receive demands for reparation of offenses committeed by Huerta stirred the Mexican situation to a new and acute crisis today. Theopposition to the American government’s action coming from an unexpected quarter after the Washington administration had hop ed for an attitude of neutrality from the constitutionalists brought the government face to face with pos sible hostility from the great body of Mexican forces lying in proxim ity to the Southern border of the United States. Secretary Bryan received Carran za’s note at his home just before midnight. It was reported that President Wilson who had retired early would be awakened and told of the situation. Volunteersforservice in Mexico will not be called for unless there is a formal declaration of war. ,.JeraCruzrApril 22".^Sfc£"Kifferi- cans were killed and about thirty wounded when the complete investi ture of Vera Cruz was made today at noon by the United States forces.

Well, this experiment has been tried, but thus far the results have not been satisfactory. In the case of meats, which were placed on the free list the result has been decid edly disappointing. The importa tion of beef from Argentina has largely increased—the total impor tations for October, November and D-; e ini her 1913 were approximately 7,000,000 pounds. The govern ment has lost the revenue on these importations without any benefit- occuring to-the people, for there has been no deerease in the price of beef in this country. In fact, beef, and pork also, have advanoed in price within the past few months, as every patron of the meat mar kets knows to his or her sorrow. There mnst be_ something wrong with the arguments of our Demo cratic friendsr—the free trade poli cies of the party not turning out as they have promised us they would —-just another evidence that they didn’t know what they were talk ing about. The people suffer when the incompetent rule.' Better have no doctor than one who does not understand his 1 business. Quacks a re always dangerous. — Times Leader. Keeping Sad News From the Gnests It must be admitted that Secre tary Daniels did his utmost to pro mote enthusiasm among the pro gressive hosts. To the end that there might -be no ffiles in the ointment the Baleigh News and Observer omitted all mention of theJiTew Jersey, election—that isf if that paper’s city edition was like the one that came thiB way. The news that the Bepublicans had elected their candidate was flashed over the wires before 9 o’clock, so those who foregathered in Baleigh will understand just how tender was the regard of the Baleigh pa per lor their feelings. As a rule, newspaper men like to print the news, so Democrats will understand the sacrifice that must have been made in their behalf. News of national import was suppressed be cause it did not read right, from a Daniels-Pomerene point of view. We have wondered how much Democrats will appreciate the as sumption that the faels of the New Jersey election Bhould be withheld from them.. It is singular that it is so, but the Daily News was alone among the larger Btate papers yes terday in publishing the news.

Trinidad, Col., Apr. 22.—Six mine employes dead and two missing; 3 men, two women and a baby report ed entombed in a burning mine, sev eral mining camps destroyed and others riddled with bullets, lesstfaan 200 militiamen and company guards confronting an army of striking coal miners estimated by . strike leaders at more than 400—this was the situ ation when the sun set on the third day in the Southern Colorado labor strike.

President Wilson In Favor Local President Wilson is in favor of local option on the liquor question, and does not believe prohibition Bhould be made a part of a party, program. Since the order of Secre tary Daniels was issued prohibiting the use of liquor by officers in the navy, persons in a position to ob tain the President’s views have learned that he still stands by his letter written in May, 1911, while governor of New Jersey, to the -Bev. Thomas B. Shannon, of New ark, N. J., in whieh he said: “I am in favor of local option. I am a thorough believer in local self-government, and believe that every self gevernoring community which constitutes a social unit should have the right to control the matter of the regulation or the withholding of licenses.” Coffin Held Remains of WhiteQrI, Not Negro Man. , Mt. Airy Dispatch, 15th, to Greensboro; News. Yesterday at the Southern depot in this city there was an . unusual occurrence in which one corpse was mistaken lor another and required the opening of the casket to solve the mystery. When the noon train arrived about 100 negroes had con- jnpM it til depot to) ieoein ,w" ,| negro resident of this place who had died elsewhere, A easket was placed uopn the platform, but the certificate bore the name.of Nettie Gwyn and it was supposed that there was an error as te the name, as no such corpse was/ expected. The railroad $hd negroes were pnzzled alike and it was , decided to open the casket, which revealed 8 m m of a tieaotifol , JODig lady instead o( the expected negro, Upon investigation it was found that Miss Gwyn’s parents lived in the mountains and had not i heard of her death in Weston-Salem, where she was employed^ Her body was afterward carried to the mountains for burial.

CALOMEL IS A FORM OF DEADLY MERCURY Instead of Such Dangerous Stuff, it is Recommended That You Take Dod son’s fiver Tone for Constipation. Dodson’s Liver Tone waB made to take the place of ealomel. Calomel is a fdrmaof mercury, a miheral and a poison. Dodson’s Liver Tone is an all vegetable liquid— never harmful. What calomel does unpleasantly and often with danger for constipa tion and sluggish liver, Dodson’s Liver Tone does for-you safely and pleasantly, with no pain and no gripe. It dooB not interfere in any way with your regular business, habits or diet. - You feel good after taking it. The great sueeess and wide Bale of Dodson’s Liver Tone are the result of what it does tor people. Its merit is baekedfup by a guar antee of “satisfaction or your mon ey* back,’?";as Cmwfprdls Drag Store, the druggists, will tell you. Dodson’s Liver Tone was intend ed from thostart to take the place of calomel. ' The label on the bottle always has said so,-beginning with the first bottle sold. Dodson’s Liver Tone “ livens the liver,’’ overcomes !constipation a- greeabiy and makes you feel good, if yoja are hot satisfied completely with it Crawford’s Drug Store will hand back the purchase priee (50c) to you with a smile.1 When you go to buy a family remedy, don’t tail to judge between the plain, simple truth about Dod son’s and the loud claims of its imitators. That the public does accounts for the enormous increase in the the sales of Dodson’s Liver Tone month after month. Trade at Home.

It was one of the first passed to us, if indeed it was not the first, and with it came words Of appreciation and encouragement we will not^soon forget. Now a one dollar bill is a messenger of light to an Editor, especially so when it eomes from a person who really wants to read his paper and pays for a year’s subscription in advanee. This dollar bill did ns good while it stayed with us, but, of course, it did not tarry long. It was like all other one dollar hills. It was in a hurry to move on. So we sentrit on in the hope thaf it may find some other Editor whose paper costs-only a dollar a year in advance, .and make him feel like we felt. We thought about keeping it, but did not hsjye the heart to detain it on its mission of usefulness.

A correspondent of th r Greens boro STews from Charlotte delivrrs ’ the following information in the issue of A pril: “ The rite of M a sonic baptism was adm inistered for the first- t-ime in the South this afternoon by Carolina consistory No I Scottish Itite Ma.sons, the child laptiszed being M argaret Overman W bitted, the six year old daughter of M r. and Mrs. Thomas B.

W inchester, past, grand master, performed the rite.” W e do not pretend to know what this moans and so far we have failed to find a Mason who can give us any light. If this Masonic Ceremony usurps the right of the church in adm inistering baptism it. is time the public are inforrned oI this new departure: if not, it is a shame that an ordinance sacred to so n a sy people should Ie burl esq n ed ia this manner. In either event the performance borders on blasm- phemy. W e call the at lent ion of onr Baptist brethren who belong to the MiiiOBie fraternity to this m atter, and hoj e they m >y be able to throw S Jtiie light on a subjei t which seems to be wrapped in mystery, and which involves the Bcottish Rile order o!

It comes before the w eather’s hot, and sits aronnd aud flies its legs, and lays at least ten million eggs, and every egg will bring a bring a fly to-drive us crazy by and by. Oh, every fly that skips onr sw at ters will have five million sons and daughters, and countless first and second cousins, and aunts and uncles, scores of dozens, and fifty- seven billion nieces; so knock the blamed thing all to pieces. And every uiece and every aunt— unless we swat them so they can 't— will lay enough dodgasted eggs to fill up ten five gallon kegs, and all these eggs, ere sum m er liies, will bring forth twenty trillion flies. And thus it goes, an endless chain, so all our swatting is in vain unless we do that swatting soon, in May time and in early June.
