r f: * ' ? A. F. JOHNSON, EDITOR AND M VOL. XL.1 , ~ Hl |M| gl ' tX-COV. JARVIS SPEAKS ^ A VOICE FRO* THE GRAND tP OLD MAM. " ' Democrats of Franklin, Stop, Look, Read and Ponder Ove> the Words of the Greatest Living Democrat In the State We take the following article from Wednesdays News and Observer: To the Editor: When I was but. a ladj l heard a Sage in State Crift give the following illustration: "Two brothers who were joint owners-and managers of a large eetat differed about its management, and their differeneeahecaaae so acute , and so bitter that they agreed to retire te some secluded spot 'and fight it eut. Accordingly ijiey' went where they thought thby weuld not be seen, bat just-ss they had completed iilljJtgTr preparations for the fighf^ttr? sheriff made his appearand with a warrant for their arrest. - They looked at eaoh other and then ' at the aheriff. One said to the ether ^Brother, tiler? is oar common cue mv. If we oontinue this fight tie will arrest as and we will soon be in jail and seme one else in charge of our property. Let ns turn upon him and after we drive him away we can renew our flght if we should be so minded.'" In A few momenta, the. sheriff was fleeing before the combined assault of these two brothers. 1 They were so mneh pleased and in. struoted by this joint achievement, that they became friends and returned to the management of their estate, convinced that interest and duty alike required them to work together." ~ . This little incident finds its com-, plete illustration in the recent history of the demooratio party. For fifteen years and more, Isms and Schimes have been its bane. Wo have doctrinised and divided until the party has nearly gone out of business as a power in the administration of the Federal government Disaster after disaster, dsfeat after defeat have fol lowed disagreements sad division among those eppesed te Republican policies snd Rcpobliosn methods. r The Republicans, sided by these divisions in our ranks, but always dosing up their own, have swept the oountry, time and again till thsy have become arrogant ipd extravagant in the exerdae of legislative power. Turning to North Carolina, we find, if poaaible, a still more striking illustration of the tolly of party diviaions. In 1804 and 1806, a large < number of 'men, who bad for yeats acted with the Democratic party, became dissatisfied and left the party and because of these differences in ' ?the ranks of the party that had given thn Stsfn at n Vila onH r*a<vt rrnvsrn _ ??/,- ment (or a quarter of a oeotury, the , State was given over to an era of had government. But for thia diviej ion there would have been nt> Governor Russpli and bloody riots, and no Senator Buller and disgraceful politioiyl barter. It ie aUo said that but for divisions in certain counties, in parly Matters, in the Tenth Hon . gressional Diatriot, there would have beeooio Republican representative from that district. This also may be true to a greater or leas extent in the Eighth and Fifth diatrieta. However that may^e, it is certain that where there are local divisions and oonfliots about party matters, the general electio^b are hurt thereby. 1 If we would have complete suoceas in general eleotiona, we must have a harmony and active oo-operation in the local efeetiooe. Oar plan of Organisation is broad enough ai?g liberal enough, if fairly administered, to give every onndi date for the aominatina' to any' nfllne full opportunity to teat his strength j. and to aeeara the nomloatiani if ht be the etaoioe of * majority of bit party assooiatss. It la the doty el | ? every true Damocrat to see thai the RAN ANAGER * . : . plan of organnation ia faitt^fally observed and honrstly administered. Then there aan be no room for complaint or diviaion. The year 1912 ia to be a year of great politioal purification. Tbe Republioan party muat come to an accounting. The books most be opened and tbe reoord laid bare. Tbe Democratic party moat be in a position, to compel tbe complete and perfect aeoeanting. To do this, the almost harmony muat prevail in nation, State and municipality. The year 1910 ia a good time to^make all needful preparation for reconciling differencea and ip coming together for an eld time atruggle for the aupramaoy"of old time principlea of ^htTDemooratio party. The country needs a united democracy to briog back the administration of tbe government to the waye our fathera trod. The principles of the Democratic party, properly interpreted and honestly applied, have been found adequate to the heeds of the Repablio in every phase of our naonal life. The eoautry never needed a steadfast adherence to the fundamental principles of the Ameriean system of government interpreted aad applied by the teachings of Mi. Jefferson, mora than now. The party has the opportunity to render a real and resting asrviee to the ecustry. Will it do it? Tnoa. J. Jabvis. At The Opera House Meters. Williamson aad Ford, managers of the Opera House, have employed the services of a vaadeville company who are playing ev ery night. The performances, we understand, are very geed and are attended by a number ef eur aitixena. They will play to night and Saturday night. From Centreyllle. Ma. Editoi:?Will yon allow me to aay juat a lew werda in regard te the oorn eleb that waa organiaed in Louisburg by Ueaara White and, Biokett. I am alwaya glad tw aee er hear anything thoee two men aay er do?they are the right aaen te de eeythiag. I think thia beya aero atnb manna morn te the faraar than any erganiaatioo en earth, end will nana a greet deal te Franklin county. I hope every farmer ia Franklin oeanty will try hia beat to aee hew maob earn ha can make on one acre of land. Thia ia the right idea. II we coaid gat the farmers to do thia ana time It woaid make him thins. Buppeea one half of the farfmers of Franklin oonaty ware to go into thia eorn raising oonteat do yon hero any idea how maoh more eorn there would be made. There would be ever 10,000 barrels. That would add-quite a large amount to the email crop. There is no donbt after trying thia once that- the result would be to great aver farmer in Franklin oounty would go jn to it next year. Now besides the increase of corn tbey wonid be improving their land for other orope. Boyt try your hand for the premium. Beeidee the hoaoi and a free trip to Washington shaking hands with Mr. " >f.<i iT.- ? ?? ?=n?K * i" *, piwiuiaui will UQ 47.SO, aud all of your oorn fodder anil shucks. If I wta a farmer I would make the most Corn to the aare aud ({at those prizes. There is nothing more grander than a farmer sitting by his fireside with a plenty of supplies, mads by bim, aud owe no man anything but good wiil. If you ever hops to be a euoceaefu! farmer yon must atari early in life, 1 Ths successful farmer is the man who raises his own supplies at home. We believe the time will eome when a farmer will be upon eqeal footing with any mi? or slam ef men. When the boys onoe set the ' suseess that lies hid in an acre of . land they will never etop until they are on the top side. How many ' will try this aquarsiy and honestly. Don't stand bask and be afraid yon ' can't be the winner, and got the hen-' t or of being tho boat farmer in the [ ceunty. { i ' 7,28,16. I. n i' m HH KLI] * the county, th louisburg. n.
