Should KJitr Messenger: Your editorial relative to the Solicitorship was opportune and pertinent. Democrats are won dering why the Executive Com mittee de.es not call a convention to nominate a candidate. Is the party organization to be sacrificed to accommodate an Independent, a man whose harrangues four years ago consisted of abuse of Democrats, honied words for Re publicans and eulogies for Butler and men of his ilk? A man who has done all in his power to impair ine efficiency f the Democratic party : who is, to the extent of his influence and ability, responsi ble for the disgraceful condition of affairs in North Carolina today ; Who says he does not want and won't have the Democratic nomin ation or endorsement, and who has the effrontery to try to intimidate and drive the party to support him ' Democrat ! look upon Spain hour: Spainhour, look upon Dem ocrat. Do you like him ? No ! Would the committee adopt a policy at variance with the spirit and letter of the Slate Democratic platform ? The State Convention upheld the integrity and manhood of the party by rejecting fusion and declaring for a fighc for prin ciple right straight from the shoulders. The party applauded the action of the convention. It infused new life and animation into the rank and file and gave hope of the redemption of the I State. Mr. Simmons has inaugu rated a vigorous campaign along that line, and there has been man ifested enthusiasm, the like of which has not been seen since '76. The people realize they have much at stake, and the Democrats are in fighting trim and eager for the fray. Intelligent white men in the Populist and Republican parties who have the best interest of their country at heart, conceive that the State government has fallen into incompetent, corrupt and scan dalous hands and that its salvation depends upon the success of the Democratic ticket. Many such will help us. The Tenth judicial district is overwhelmingly Anglo - Saxon. Are these white men going to prove recreant at this important crises in the history of the State? Surrender to a political nonde script ? Cringe at the feet of an Independent a Disorganizer the party's worst foe ? McDowell County Democratic Convention "requested" the com mittee to call a con vention to nom inate a candidate for Solicitor, and the Caldwell County Convention "demanded" a convention and nomination. This is the sentiment of the party. The plain and im perative duty of the committee is to respond to this "request," this "demand," and this sentiment. It has no discretion, but must act. Otherwise it would assume per se to be the party, usurp authority not given, and abuse a power con tided it. The party speaks through its conventions only. The conven tion can nominate a candidate or let it alone, and its action is the party's. The committee can't do either. The committee will, of course, act. The Democrats of the Tenth judicial district will pre serve the party organization in tact, meet out retributive justice, tlo their full duty and elect their Solicitor. Respectfully, G. G. Eaves. Marion, Aug. 23, '9S. OM) 1 OUT FACTS. Mr. Rans Bradley and Miss Ilet tie Kanipe were married Sunday morning at the home of Mr. J. S. Bradley, by 'Squire J. C. Sandlin. Dr. W. II.

In 1SG2, when I served ny coun try as a private in Company A, 107th lVnns Ivania Voluuteers, I contracted chrome, diarrhoea. It has given me a great deal of trouble ever since. I Lave tried a dozen different medicines and several prominent doctors without any permanent relief. Not long ago a friend sent me a sample bottle of Chamberlain' Colic, Cholera aud Diarrhoea Remedy, and after that I bought aud took a 50-ceut bottle; aud now I cau say that I am en tirely cured. 1 cannot be thank ful enough to you for this great Remedy, and recommend it to all suffering veterans.

Kobbetl the Grave. A startling incident, of which Mr. John Oliver of Philadelphia, was the subject, is narrated by him as follows: "I was in a most dread ful condition. Mv skin was almost ellow, eyessunketi, tongue coated, pain continually in back and sides, no appetite gradually growing weaker day by day. Three phy sicians had given me up. Foitu nately, a friend advised trying 'Electric Bitters;' and to my great joy and surprise, the first bottle made a deeided improvement. I continued their use for three weeks, and am now a well man. I know they saved my life, and robbed tbe grave of another victim,'' No one should fail to try them. Only 50 cts. per bottle at White & Yancey's, Marion; V. II. Disosway's, Old Fort.

Mrs. Michael Curtain, Plainfield, 111., makes the statement that she caught cold, which settled on her lungs; she was treated for a mouth by her family physician, but grew worse. He told her she was a hopeless victim of cotrMimption and that no medicine could cure her. Her druggist suggested Dr. King's New Discovery for Con sumption; she bought a bottle and to her delight found herself bene fited from first dose. She contin tied its use and after taking six bottles, found heiself sound and well; now does her own housework, and is as well as she ever was.
