Editor Reporter: As the voice of the stump spea ker and the loud-mouthed spellbinder is beginning to be heard abroad in the land, some may wonder why so few voters turn out to hear tfiem; lam glad such is the case and hopefully look for ward to the time when nobody will listen to.or believe the hundredth part of the political rot that is scattered liroad-cast every two years by the politicians for the sole purpose of making "dam phools" of the voters of this once free country. Is not this grow ing indifference on the part of the voting masses an indication that they are doing some deep think ing? Does it not show that labor ing people of this country are hwake to the fact that a money monarcy has been established where once was "the land of the free and the home of the brave?" Does it mean that something will yet bo done that will loosen the clutch of plutocracy from the throat of toil? History repeats itself, it is said, and if the spirit of freedom has not slept her last sleep abandoning-.nl I hope of securing a just recompense for labor, then we are qearing the beginning of a revolution that will stagger humanity. Why don't we listen to the poli ticians, you ask? I answer, be cause we know that when on« class of individuals are elevated by the possession of wealth, that another class must necessarily sink as low in proportion. We know that class legislation is the order of the day, that laws JVotioe Of Sale Of Land. By virtue of a decree of the SBperidt: court ot Stokes county, rendered on the 10th day of Oct..

Our people are convinced that nine-tenths of the j)olitical har ritnguers, both Democratic and Republican, are only hirelings of the money monarchy sent out to preach yaller-dog politics, and those who listen will hear a doct rine that is leading the masses down into the low lands of want and misery. Why don't we go out to hear "4ho issues discussed?" Because we know that after election all promises will be forgottou, the dollar will become more important than anything else and only that will be done which will make the rich richer and serfs and paupers 1 the laboring class. Voters, why not now and in this ojectioh make the necessary change. Go out and meet the politicians, make your demands i and then enforce them if necessary a hangman's noose. Con- f 1 ?
