Vr"’^ EnteiL'«d as secoKd-class matter May 10,1908, at the powt; office at Burling ton, North Carolina, under the Act of iSoagress of March :;! 18T9. Wednesdajr, iaa. 10, 1912. One difference between Cook and Bryan is, Bryan never got there. Wonder how the fellow who took the Kew Year pledge not to drink is holding out these «>ld days. One thing should console the farmers these cold days, they destroy thousands of bugs and in sects that play havoc with the croDS. The convenience of the street car is to be more appreciated this weather than during the Dalmy spring days. We wonder who Bryan was re ferring to when he said there was another, who could poll more votes than he. In his speech at Raleigh Satur day night Mr. Bryan said he was not a candidate, but gave the par ty the gentle reminder that he was not out of politics. Four Democrats deadbound for the Presidency, and four for the senate in our state,, is what we call a double quartette. We suppose there is great re joicing among the others of the fold’when thev hear the glad tid ings of great joy that William Jennings is^ nc longer a candi date. To take a side glance at the Democratic situation at present one,would thifjk Wilson is against the'field. Anti Wilson lost his home state in a recent election. The greatf it applause given Bryan in his epeech at Raleigh Saturday night was when he said * ‘That thera were other men in the Democratic party;’.who eould poll mor^; votes |than he." Did thejpeople mean by that, that they did not want Bryan? Look After the Poor. Is it not the duty and demand of our churches, Sunday schools and Christian organizations at this sea^n of the year to. Iwk" after the poor? Do we Christ ian people in Burlington and Ala mance County who send money to other nations not know of some one near us who is suffer-, ing and who need our support? Do we not know of some home that we can make pleasant an cozy these cold wi’nterd nights where suffering and hard ships perhaps exist. Stop a mo ment and think. l^erfecUjr Harmonious. The great democratic jolifi'*.a- tion which met at the Raleigh hotel Washington Monday night for their Jackson day dinner, is reported in glarin.^ headlines as being perfectly harmonious. We should say hai-monious v/ith Gov ernor Wilson holding a similar meeting at another place, and allowing only those to attend who wore Wilson badges. Harmoni ous, again we say harmonious, vdth Governor Harmon, consid ered by many the strongest dem ocratic possible nominee, sending his regrets that he could not be present. With Governor Mar shall of Indiapia who had anoth er engagement, with Representa tive Underwood, leader of the house democracy, and also a pres idential possibility, sending|word that his doctcr would not let him attend because of threatened apr pendicitis. With what was re maining the entire meeting was harmonious, i The Sylvan Valley News, which is in position to get Re publican information straight, says that the fight for the Re publican nomination for Govern or of North Carolina will be be tween John M. Morehead and Thomas Settle. This leads the Charlotte Chronicle to say: “ We have heard as much. They are both strong men, in the division of party influence pretty well matched. Whichever gets the nomination, however, will get the full republican vote, for the Republican quarrel# end when the ticket is made. There is some sentiment in Morehead's candidacy, and he would be, per haps, the stronger. There are many Democrats, personal friends, who would vote to send him to the seat once occupied by his grandfather, one of the great est of North Carolina's long line of Governors. The campaign for the nomination is going to be a pretty one, and the campaign for votes is going to be one that will command the attention of the Democrats. The Canal Problem. It seems but yesterday that the President of the United State?, after a confe-ence with Panama, decided to dig the Panama canal and the first shovelfull, of dirt was moved in what is destine to be one of the greatest works oi all time. However recent it may seem, seven long years have rolled by and today it stands near comple- . tion. Hundreds of millions have 1 . • , . t been sunk in the century old dream of inter-ocean highway. For five years the trade of the world has been in the throes of adjustment to an entirely new condition. Westandeast are clasp ing fingers. Financial problems are figured from new basis. In a practical sense the entire dis tance around the world has been divided ' y two. That the com pletion is nearing is being evi denced by the fact that the In terstate committe of the House are discussing the question of tolls. After a week or ten days it will probably be discussing whether American shipping is to have preferential treatment. Af ter weeks of consideration it will doubtless report. After oratory and oratory the question will doubtless be settled, and the world may know on what terms it may use the c?.nal. For in the meantime the canal is being pushed to its completion. A Guilty Conscimce. Again we are brought face to face with the fact that a guilty conscience is by far the worst punishment that can be placed on a person, and that the remorse and lashing of a guilty consci ence is more than many a frail human being can bear. In the recent confession of the Rev. Richesbn of Massachusetts, the tongue of murder cries out under the yoke of remorse. A guilty conscience is pleading for repent ance and forgiveness. The pa thetic confession of a man gone wrong, of the snuffing out of an innocent life and the probable wrecking of another, caused by one who, until a few months ago, was a leader for good and up lifting humanity. Lead by the folly of his passion he has follow ed on and on until he now plead-? for repentance as he stands with the lashing and remorse of a guil ty conscience. In this confes sion his plea is that God will save his soul. I. KU. NS. I. ]M[rs. Mollie Ireland of Greens boro is visiting her sister Mrs."J. W. Somers. Mr. Wm. Love of Greensboro N. C. and Mrs. Nannie Henly of Paris Texas, spent Thursday and Friday of last week with their cousin Rev, A. F. Isley. G. L. Simpson is the champion hog raiser on No. 8. He killed two that weighed about 900 lbs. The sausage and etc. that we got out of those hogs was fine. We spent 1st. of January in Durham N, 3. visiting J. F. Tav- lor and Lonnie D. Hamlin, Rural Carriers. We enjoyed the day splendidly especially our visit to Mr. Hamlins home. Mrs. Ham lins knows how to make any one feel at home. We are “gwine back agin.” ^ I-onnie has an automobile and he showed us the town in good shape. B. A. Perry has had a very sick child, we are glad to note that the little fellow is about well. We wish to .thank our patrons for the nice favo.s rec’d during the Christmas Holidays. We got Qur share We hope by givingithe best of favors. service to merit theiie “He Ain’t Kotched It Yit.” Bryan’s running^for thie Presi dency reminds us of the story of the little negro boy who v;as a regular attendant at a boys read ing club, and always called for the same book and always turn ed to the same place at which he looked eagerly and then laughed heartily. Those who attended the club wondered at the per formance so many times repeat ed. So on a certain night one of the attendants followed the little fellow and looked over his shoul der, saw that he opened the book to a picture of a bull chas ing a terrified negro across a field. The looker on was just about to ask what the fun was, for the laugh;had again come rippling up to him, when the boy looked a- round, grinning. “Golly!” he cried, "he ain’t kotched himyit!” SALE UF REAL ESTATE.
