Raleigh, N. C.
Democratlo Candidate for Governor,
BiGkett Wins Out.
In the primary Saturday Hon.
Thos. W. Bickett was nominated
for Govornor by a majority of
more than 30,000.
J. Bryan Grimes was re-nomi
nated for Secretary of State; B.
R. Lacy for Treasurer; M. L.
Shipman for Com'r of Labor and
Printing; W. T. Lee for Corpora

in doubt.
THE BIG STICK
The Republican National Conven
tion is in session in Chicago. 80
far it has been only turmoil.
Whether it will bo HuglioH, Itoose
velt, Hoot, Uurton or Weeks or
somebody else, no living man 8001118
able to say with any certainty yot.
One thing, however, is certain, that
the "Big Stick" is in e\ idoneo and
is being wielded.
It is believed that Itoonevell will
be a candidate, whether nominated
or not; and that if he should get the
nomination, :ho stand-pat Itepubli
cans will not suj)]iort him to any
considerable extent, or may put out
a man to their liking.
Cut Out Diseased And Inferior Trees.
Timber lias been conidered too
much as a "And", ns clear "vel
vet," ami has been wnsted. The
years of time taken to yield that
timber have not been considered,
lie must begin to think of that
now, and increase the yield of his
woodlota by giving them proper
attention. He must cut out and
utilixe the mature and old trees
and those of the poorer species.
In this way he is not ouly getting
a return from them, but is giving
the apace taken up by them to
new growth and letter species
Too often the best trees are cut
even for tire wood and the poorer
class of trees left (the crooked,
knotty, lirnby and decaying).
Snch a process of handling
depreciates the timber.— lt. S.
Maddox, in The Progressive Far

Senator Overman has intro
duced in Congress a resolution to
permit the erection in Washing

tion ia asked, the bill being simply
to secure permission to erect the
monument on public grounds in

Cor. ot The Gleaner.
Raleigh, N. C., June 7.—June
eighth is the date to which was
adjourned the hearing of the
charges made against the Central
Hospital for the Insane at Raleigh.
The Investigation was ordered by
Qov. Craig to begin May 11th, but
that date was inconvenient for
Attorney-General Bickett who is
to conduct it on the part of the
State. Mr. Latta, whose complaint
was largely instrumental in order
ing the inquiry, is now again an
inmate of the asylum, he having
been recommitted several weeks
"at the instance of relatives"
it was stated at the time. That
fact, however, is not expected to
have much effect oiuthe investi
gation, especially in view of the
fact that the Superintendent stat
ed to the Governor that, under all
the circumstances, he desired the
inquiry to be made in order that
the truo situation might be made
known to the public.
The death of Col. Ale*. Blow of
Groenvilie, Clerk of the U. S
Court, which occurred Sunday at
his home in Greenville, was a
great shock to his friends in Ral
eigh where lie spent most of his
time on account of olticial duties.
While it was known here that he
had not been entirely well for
several days and was taken to
Greenville Saturday last to re
cuperate, no one thought his ill
ness was of a fatal character.
Speculations its to his successor
are already heard. - Judge Connor
controls the appointment.
Ntate Primary Allirinslli.
Now that the first "legalized"
State primary is over, it is to be
hoped that every Democrat in
North Carolina will make himself
content with the result—for the
selections made furnish the party
with a line State ticket from Gov
ernor down. The strongest men
won (just as the most popular
candidates usually won in Demo
cratic State conventions) and the
friends of the defeated aspirants
should promptly get in line and
join heartily in the campaign,
without any "pouting" or the
nursing of auy disappointments
or grievances, real or imaginary.
State Chairman Warren, upon
whose shoulders the burden is now
largely transferred, has a right to
oxpect the hearty and active sup
port of all true Democrats in the
campaigu how just opened, in the
effort to elect by creditable ma
jorities the nominees of the party
uaiued last Saturday.
Without a whole-hearted sup
port the party cannot poll its full
strength and ensure continued
good government and safe admin
istration of public affairs, and of
all years the Democrats should
make a good showing in,,, North
Carolina this year by uuitod ef
fort and unusual activity. For
the Republicans will make the
most spirited light of many years
all over tho country in the effort
to capture the Presidency and the
next Congress aud to reduce pr
reverse tho Democratic majorities
in all the States —with plenty of
"big business" campaign money
to speud. The priuiary did not
elect anybody and no Democrat
should slop working simply be
cause the primary is over. Tho
real work of the year lies before
us. A half-hearted campaigu
would be disastrous to tho Demo
crats of North Carolina, at home
and iu the eyes of the nation.

Probably the most surprised peo

managers at the Kdgeeomb man s

Conawajr and Capelle were un pies

to it till midnight on primary dav
that 'it was almost a "landslide 1
for their man. tVhen they woke
up they were very much disap
pointed, for early advices wired

aged their belief. /
Oov. Duught ridge made a fine
run, when the date of his candida
cy is considered, and if he had £one
into the fight six months earlier
than he did it Would have been
a closer race than it was. had he
been elected North Carolina would
have had a true and devoted son
in the executive office, a gentle
man, and a high-minded anil cour
ageous, faithful public servant,
whose administration would have
contributed much to the business
security, the promotion of the ag
ricultural Interests and all the best
interests of the State he loves so
well.
As It is the part.v has nomln*t«d

Ugh I Calomel Makes
You Deathly SiGk
Stop Using Dangerous Drug
Before it Salivates you !
It's Horrible,!
You're bilious, sluggish, consti
pated, and believe you need vile,
dangerous calomel to start your
liver and clean your bowels.
Here's my guarantee! Ask your
druggist for a 50-cent bottle of
Dodson's Liver Tone and take a
spoonful to-night. If It doesnt
start your liver and straighten you
right up better than calomel aad
without griping Or, making you
sick, I want you to go back to
the drug store and get your
money.
Take calomel to-day and to-mor
row you will feel weak, sick and
nauseated. Dont lose a days
work. Take a spoonful of harm
less, vegetable Dodson s Liver Tone
tonight and wake up feeling great
It's perfectly harmless. Give it to
your children any time. It cant
salivate, so let them eat anything
they want afterwards.
lui tue position to whlfeh he
-has been called to aapire aa the
nominee of .the "Democratic party.
Hia oratorical ability to meet the
enemy on the stump and elsewhere
probably also contributed to his
selection in the primary. What we
Democrats want to do now la to
give our nominee oar united and
active support and roll up as Urge
a majority for him and for Wood
row Wilson as possible at the No
vember election.
While it is generally admitted
that the pre-primary Btate conven
tion was devoid ot the usual ginger
and enthusiasm which heretofore
has characterized conventions, the
candidates who were successful In
the primary are the ones who
would have been nominated in the
convention had one been held this
year, to a man.
Critics ot the State primary plan
are still asserting the belief that
this lack of "ginger' and enthu
triasm has extended to the party
workers in the ranks and they are
voicing the fear that this cold-air
feeling may interfere with getting
many voters to the polls. But a
live campaign will cure that, and
an active Slate campaign is what
must be had at all hazards.
LLEWXAM.
A Story 30 Years Old- And Still
Too True,
Progressive Farmer,
A friend of ours told the other
day about hearing Col. L. L. Polk,
the founder of The Progressive
Farmer, make a sptlfcch thirty
years ago. "And he told one story
I have never forgotten," our
friend said. "He told about see
ing a farmer with a wagon-load of
meat, hay, and flout* about this
lime of year.
"Col. Polk said to the farmer:
'Why are you buying all this
meat, hay, and flour ?"
" 'So I can make cotton,' was
the reply.
" 'And why do you want to
make cotton V"
"'So I can pay for the meat,
hay, and flour,' the farmer an
swered ."
A'"! the pity ot it is that after
tliiity years of agitation and edu
cation, thero are still so many of
our farmers guilty of the self
evident folly which the story illus
trates—binding thefhsi'lves to a
sort of industrial bondage in order
to pay freights, middlemen's
charges, commercial profits, etc.,
on products grown a thousand
miles from home but which should
be grown at their own doors. Nor
does the evil stop here, because
this excess acreage in cotton (the
part grown on land that should
be devoted to food and feed crops)
beats down the price of cotton
on all the normal acreage as well.
Whatever others may or may
not do, Mr. Farmer, yon may Bee
that this folly is not perpetual on
your farm. Lei's look to that.
Making Second Applications Of
Fertilizer To Corn.
Progressive Farmer
A roador asks if wo advise two
applications of fertilizers to corn.
It seems quite certain that in so
far as phosphoric acid and potash
are concerned it does not pay to
applications, because
they are not leached from the soil
by the water that passes down
through it. If no nitrogen is used,
then the answer to the question is
an unqualified no.
Possibly the most satisfactory
way of applying nitrogen to the
corn crop is to use some such
nitrogen supplying material as
cottonseed meal in rather smai!
quantity wheu planting and then
using uitrate of soda as a side
dressing when the corn iB about
two and a half to three feet high.
It should be put out before the
starting of tho formation of ears,
as proper fertilization at the right
time may have an important in
fluence iu determining the number
of ears produced and consequently
the yield. •
