CORRESPON‘> ENCE We wish correspondents in all the earby post offices. Write at onr*p. {platform SO agreed by the con vention, by an overwhelming vote. Jt may be thought that this fact will tend to alienate a great many people who other wise misrht support Mr. Settle, and so it will, there are a great many people who will support Mr. Settle because of this very plank m the platform upon which he runs. In a time like this when politics has been thrown to the winds it will be difiicult to correctly determine the final show down until after November the first, but there will evideiitly be some surprises. Thursday. September 12 1912 WILL FIGHT IT OUT. The two Republican con ventions held in Charlotte last Wednesday evening:, one by the regular Republicans, and the other by the Roosevelt wing,) and the seperate tickets nomi-‘ nated furnishes conclusive evi dence that there is an irreconci- leable difference between the two wings of the party, and it may be counted upon as quite sure that they w^ill fight it out to a finish. This would .seem to make absolute the success of the National Democratic ticket con- ceeded by members of all parties, but what effect it will have upon the State ticket will not be so easily determined. There is much more disatisfaction in State politics than is generaly presumed. The Democratic party is charged with omitting much that it might have done in the interest of the peoples, things, that it could and should have done because of its predom inance and power to do them, not that it is assumed that the j Republican party could be de-1 pended upon to do them, butj there is much weariness in i waiting for professional politi-' cians to tieat the people of North j Carolina as they should be! treated. The Editor of the Leader has never done other than stick to Democratic principles, during The Coming of the Fall The fields’ll soon be ready for the reapers, one and all, And the happiest tjme in Georgia is the coming of the Fall; You hear the winds a-singing of the liveliest kind o’ tune. The playing of the fiddles, and we’ll all be dancing soon! Joy will come to greet us from many a glad retreat; At the old cane-grindmg, where the juice is drippir’ sweet; The world’ll seems like Paradise, whore not a dream is yain; For your sweetheart she will meet you at the grindm’ of the cane. Fair fields will bid us welcome, and and give us all their gold Just all the wealth and happiness the arms of you can hold; The singing Sunrmer leaves us, we the Autumn’s call; “The happiest time in Georgia is tne coming of the Fall!” F. L. S., in Atlanta Constitution. A Sensible Girl The boat was drifting idly when he proposed. She gazed at him calmy from her end of the craft and said: “As a matter of common sense, real izing that we are in this boat on a body of w^ater forty feet in depth, and that if you were to act as you should act if I accepted you, we would capsized, I wi]l decline your prososal at this moment—but—but, George, row to shore as fast as you can and ask me again!”—Chi^’ogo Evening Post. For the Darkness Draws Near. If a man have the truth in him, th© thought of hla own death as an ever present possibility will, far from para lyzing effort, drive him to a more faithful performance of duty. As the poet says, “then let him turn today.” —Exchange. For Sale A sweet tone organ, bran new, will sell reasonable. Address W. J. care of ^he Leader office. Trust no Future, howe’er pleasant! Let thi dead Past bury its dead! Act—act in the living Present! Hoart within, and God o’erhead. —longfellow. ot The Fourteen Errors Life. The fourteen mistakes of life, Ren- toul recently told the Bartholomew Club, of London, are: To expect to set up our own standard of right and wrong and expect every body to conform to it. To try to measure the enjoyment of others by our own. To expect uniformity of opinion in this world. To look for judgement and experience. To endeavor to mold the dispositions of everybody alike. Not to yield in unimportant trifles. To look for perfections in our own actions. To worry ourseK'es about what can not be remedied. Not to alleviate if we can all that needs alleviation. Not to ma.ce allowance for weak nesses of others. To consider anything impossible simjily because we ouiv-elves happen to be unable to perform it. To believe only what our finite minds can grasp. Not to live as if the moment, the ‘ ^—» b time, the dav, woie so important that his twenty years service in the j it would live forever, newspaper business, but he has ! To estimate people by some outside never regai ded as infalible the within which assumption of a professional politician that he was a Democrat, no more than he regards a sure indication that a man is a chris- Thrust In a suffrage debate in Omah last -- ^ io a ''“A lo-I month, Miss Millicent M.

Thompson to be on some church record, Morton, the W’ell known anti-suffragist. and in this day of religious, and political degeneracy the fellows mouth is often the poorest, and least dependable witness in his own behalf. It is to the interest of no people, or party, for a party tc> feel that it is so thorou.?hly entrenched in political power as to feel it can defy public senti ment. We believe in the people, and shall ever strive to serve them as best we can. There is a persistent rumor that we are on the eve of a break with Mexico. Nothing in it perhaps, and then there might be, it would be diffucult to tell when the echo of a gun fired by the United States on Mexicon soil is going to cease its reverber ation. The Mexicans are an exciteable race, continualy in revolution. Intervention by the United States may mean much more in the end than we think for. Ife is apparently not much of a matter, but conflictinp^ interest may start a conflagration that would mean awful havoc. We might ad however, that in Mr. Tafts present dilema, that a war between this country and any other nation would be a convenient thing to have on hand. They are great deverters of public sentiment, and then in the event of one Mr. Taft might say it would be a dangerous policy to swap presidential horses whih crossing a dangerous Mexican stream. It would have it effects, so in fact does not Mr. Taft need a little war. pinked one another very neatly with barbed stories. “Women are cold callous, calculat ing,” said Dr. Morton. “1 know a youth, an Omaha youth, who, over boiling with passionate love, laid his heart at a pretty Omaha girl’s feet. “But she was still silent. “Madeline,” he cried again. ‘I lay my most splendid hopes, my most cher ished ambition, in the dust before you. Will you not speak?’ “And at last' the girl spoke—spoke calmy, coolly. “Is the business,’ she said, ‘iu your mother’s name or your own?”—vSt. Louis Post Dispatch. The Men Who Succeed as heads of large enterprises are men of great energy. Success, to-day, demands health. To ail is to fail. It’s utter folly for a man to endure a weak, run down, half alive condition when Electric Bitcers w'ill put him right on his feet in shcrt order, “Four bottles did me more rea' good than any other medicine I ever took,” writes Chas. B. Allen, Sylvania, Ga. “After years of suffering with rheumatism, liver trouble, stomach disorders, and deranged kid neys, I am again, thanks to Electric Bitters, sound and well.” Try them.

The new products are of the lightest weight and fireproof up to a temperature of two thousand and more degrees. They are proof against acids and weather and are said to last as Ions as a concrete building will. “Jinx’s daughter bids fair to become ' a humorist.” “That so?” Yes, I was j visiting there last night, and I told her she had her mother’s voice and her father’s features, and she asked me if I thought suicide a sin.”—Houston Post. An article that has real merit should in time become popular, That_ such is the case with Chamberlain’s (x)ugh Remedy has been attested by many dealers Here is* one of them. H. W'.

What he Didn’t Like A horse dealer was trying to sell a horse afficted with heaves, and said to the prospective buyer: “Hasn’t he a fine coat? Isn’t it a dandy?” “His coat’s ail right, but I don’t like his pants.” Mr. Thomas Settle has been nominated by the regular Re publicans as their candidate for governor of this State. Mr. Settle will run on a local option Absorb Water Through the Skin. Experiments have been made with frogs which tend to show that those animals rapidly absorb water through the pores of the skin. Emphasis is laid by certain authorities upon the fact that frogs never take water by the mouth. On being exposed for sev eral hours to dry air some frogs ex perimented with lost 14 per cent, of their weight, but this was nearly all regained within 24 hours when they were placed in a dish containing wa ter only one centimeter In depth. Uncle Ezra Says “It don’t take more’n a gill uv effort to git folks into a peck of trouble” ard a little neglect of constipation, bilious ness, indigestion or other liver dei ange- ment will do the same.

CURIOUS WORK OF PENANCF Anolont Buddhist of Japan Writes 126,000 Word* on Pleoe of Papor 13 by 7J4 Inchea. For some time there has been shown in San Francisco a piece of paper 13 Inches by 7^ inches, on which there are written 126,000 words. This writing Is the work of Kobo Talshi, a Buddhist of Japan, who lived 1,100 years ago. Before his time his countrymen used only Chinese char acters in writing and he evolved the Idea of the Japanese alphabet. The writing on the paper Is so fine that a microscope has to be used to decipher the intricate Japanese chai^ acters. It Is an exact copy of eight books of the Buddhist Bible, and was written by the author as a sort of penance to purify his spirit. It Is the property of a descendant of the writer, and has passed as a sacred heirloom from father to son for a thousand years. EJvery precaution has been taken to Insure the safety of the document. In a case of white wood is a beautiful laquered box wrapped in green silk. Within the laquered box is another made of a very light poroUs wood that 1b extensively used in the manufacture of cabinets in which to store treasures. In this box is th.^ precious writing.
