Any one who witnessed the
entertainment bears me out in
saying that this is the ndbiest

citizens of North Carolina. It
is a training of that element in

any other way, and' it is decid

DEMOCRATIC NOMINEES.
The' question is asked to
day, Is the Chicago platbrm
the Democratic platform ; is it
in accord with the Democratic
principles of "ye olden times?"
Has it not supplanted the pop
ulist ideas ? These questions
Democratic Cnnprpinnal Prnvfn- 1 are beinp- discussed bv manv

25th,- and Wilkesboro, July 29th. I ones sav that the democratic
ideas have been . abandoned
and in their place have 'been
put, the flimsy -ideas of free
silver, no bonds 'and an income
tax. These thev claim are not
V
democratic. :
What is democracy ? . Is it
the rule of the lew, or is the
expression of the people gen
eral ? ; Is a man not not demo
cratic becaus3 he feels that the
principles advocated by that
party are not in accord'with
the best interests of the peo
ple? This is the issues of
Democracy. If a person see
ing that a principle thus advo:
cated is injurious to the people,
he acts contrary to his own
convictions, and to the real
meaning and purpose of his
party if he does not attempt to
remedy the evil. So it would
appear that the ones condemn -inof
these new ideas are. the
ones who have missed the real
significance ' of democracv.

down party lines. ; We.no longer
have the Republican or high
tariff, and the Democratic or
low . tariff elements, pitted
against each other. But in -stead
we have . the people
against capital. It is the com
ing campaign which will decide
which of the two will rule.
The former is democracy, the
latter contains no element of
tlie democratic idea whatso
ever. It sees only the capi
talist. Will you then have a
rule of the people by working
for democracy, or will 'you -still
be oppressed by supporting
the capitalist ?

mittee, had sent out on Wed
nesday, July the 15th, posters
announcing the election, to the
chairmen of all precinct com
mittees, The election was not
be held until the 25th, thus
giving a lapse of ten days.
The question also has another
side. If ten days were hot
sufficient time to tell the peo
ple that the election was to be
held, would the time which in
tervened between Friday, July
17. and Saturday July 25, be
sufficient time to let them
know-there would be no elec
tion. Sucji a statement is a
contradiction. The posters
could not be sent off (before
late Saturday afternoon, they
would . not be gotten by all
the precinct chairmen until late
the following week, so not
more than four days notice
could be given of the change.
Yet we hear a clamor for ten
day's notice. '
The result of such a coursq
will not tend to arouse much
sympathy for the democratic
cause.' Many farmers who
grudgingly spare one day will
go to the polls on Saturday,
July 25th, because they have
not been informed as to the
change. The outcome will be
that many of these, will be
come, disgusted and remain at
home at the proper time. This
may be the result desired by
those who wish to strengthen
some candidates chances' by a
postponed election. The han
diwork is too evident, cover up
your tracks before you work
another such game.

Wilson is to-day living in
the era of rapid progress. She
has worked out for herself all
the latest improvements, elec
tric lights, 'phones, sewerage
etc. All this has been done in
an amazingly short time. - The
upward move has been so
the rising metropolis of east
ern Caroliua. The citizens
are not inactive, they love
sports of all kinds. But the
advantages for amusements
are limited. This want is ex
hibited in the condition of the
auditorium. The place is unfit
-for exhibitions of any kind.
And unless some steps are
iuuu iui lis .ICUcUl," LUC CUin-
ing season will see but very
few troups of any kind. This
should not be the case. Why
not secure this one. This
furnishes a good opening for, a
payino- investment. Let snrrm
of our enterprising citizens
look into the matter.
There is more Catarrh in .this section
of the country than all other diseases
put together, and until the last few'
years was supposed to be incurable.
For a grea't many years doctors pro
nounced it a local disease and pre
scribed local remedies, and by con
stantly failing to cure with local treat
ment, pronounced it incurable. Sci
ence has proven catarrh ta be a con
stitutional disease, and. therefore re
quires constitutional treatment. Hall's
Catarrh Cure, manufactured by F. 'J.
Cheney & Co., Toledo Ohio, is the
only constitutional cure on the market.
It is taken internally in closes front 10
drops to a teaspoonful. It acts direct
lyon the.blood and mucous surfaces of
the system. They offer one hundred
dollars for niy case it fails to cure.

O. Hasn't the Southern the
right to run a line of steamers
of its own on the bay if it
chooses to do ? ;
A. Technically the right
does exist, but the practical
exercise of this right jepardi
zes the interests, not only of
the S. A. L., but also the pack
et line of steamers, which has
been in operation, for 50 years.
Also it is the aim of the South
ern, not to facilitate traffic, but
to destroy the advantages I al
ready offered. il
O. But has riot the South
ern been refused such facilities
of transportation as it requires,
and. thus been forced, as a
matter of necessity, to estab-
1 lish an independent line of its
own : ;' '..;'!

The destruction of. one means

ASWEKS SOME OUESIIONS.
We are only voicing the
Sentiment of everv o-ood ct i-
zen of Wilson when we say
that Mr. Lawrence, Supt. of
r i if
deserves unbounded praise for
the efficcient work in training
the fatherless ones of onr
State. And we have' no hesi
tancy js sayin p; that the exores
sion given on Thursday night,
is as good report as could be
The meeting of the Execu
tive Committee of the Demo
cratic party of Wilson county
seems to have been a farce.
It appears that just on the eve
of the primary election some
one decided' that it would not
be best for some candidate, we
do not presume to know who,
to put off the primary election.
An excuse was then unearthed
that the people would not
have time to learn of the elec
tion. Now this was on Fri-
I day, July. 17th. The excuse
ottered at this meeting was
that the people would hot have
the required ten days' which
should intervene between the
call and the election, the medi
um of information being the
papers of Wilson. So it was
decided to put the election off
until late in August.
The facts in the case are
against such action. Mn Bul
lock, Ch'm of the Go. Ex. com-
The old hostilities which
have for sometime existed be
tween the Southern and the
S. A. L. rail roads have been
renewed in a new phase; - It
appears that the Southern, not
being satisfied with its connec
tions afforded by the Baltimore
Steam Packet Co., a line of
Steamers plying between Balti
more and Portsmouth, have
decided to remedy this incon
venience by establishing an
opposition line over the same
route. The S. A, L. Compa
ny, feeling that their privileges
have been encroached .upon,
have gone into the rate cutting
war. They claim they have a
right to do this because their
personal rights have been dis
regarded.. Also, that if the
Southern' succeeds in running
the Packet Company out of
business many States will be,
as a result, rendered depend
ent . on on,e cooperation.
Their success will not only
mean a failure for the steamer
line, but also of the S. A, L.
Company itself, because they
will be denied a friendly out
let to all northern territory.
The following: are some ques
tions asked by a Portsmouth
btar reporter, with the an-
-
fakes life misery to tliousancls of
people. It manifests itself in many
different ways,; like goitre, swellings,
running sores, boils,
pimples and other eruptions. Scarce
