Friday, August tqit
We should put clean, competent
men in every office from township
constable to president of the United
States. Petty jealousies have
worked Iwrm in the past and will
always bring bad result! when in
dulged in. The Rood of the whole
shoald be considered and not the
blind prejudices of those who are
careless of results.
We have stated repeatedly that
no article unsigned would appear
in these columns, but this unalter
able rule is violated very often.
Only this wtefc we received a com
munication signed "Many voters of
Martin County" placing the name
of a citizen of the county before the
people for Representative, but
there was no man's name to show
who sent it and therefore it could
not be published. We have no
dealre to disregard the wishes of
the people but our rule is tbe safe
one and we must abide by it. Sign
your communications.
Not a Candidate
Mr. Editor:
Having been solicited
by a goodly number ot friends to
let my name KO before the County
Convention as a candidate for the
Legislature, and in your last issue
my friend, Mr. G P. Roberson ad
vocated tbe same, I desire to say
that I appreciate the compliment
and especially the kind words of
Mr. Robersun. but feel that it is
mv duty to sny that I cannot accept
tbe honor even if tbe people of
Martiu County should desite to
bestow it upon me Owing to my
business and age, I feel that it
would not be well to have my time
so fullv occupied. For this same
season t aui not a candidate for tbe
office of County Commissioner' at
the Couvention. I wish to thauk
all the people for their kindness
and loyal support, aud I would
suggest that they nominate Mr. G.
F. Roberson to succeed me on the
Board of Commissioners. He ban
served faithfully for some years as
a magistrate and has much experi
ence with the people
Now I desire to say that my at
titude as to the acceptance of any
office does not indicate a lack of in
terest in the political affairs of tbe
county. 1 «hall ahva\s do what I
can for the interest of our grand
old Democratic party as founded
aud advocated by Thomas Jefferson,
AnJrew Jackson aud a long list of
our old heroes.
IJo nut like this new "faud
angle" 'det of L rmocracy in some
of our public offici ils. They are
elected on our platform and instead
of standing -qu ue on it, get off
aud on as it suits tbera. Thej
have ro to do so, but should
stand pat on it until it is changed
bv the Slate'ard Natioual Convert
Now in conclusiftu, let meadvi.se
all out t:ood people to work and
vote for Locke Crai« for Governor,
Vl' . W. Kitchin tdr U. S Senator
and Wilson for President. Tliey
aie simon-pu'c Democrats and will
stand square on our platform, aud
if they are elected, we will all be
happy.
Yours truly.

CALOMEL GIVES ONLY
TEMPORARY RELIEF
So Powerful H Shocks Liver and
Leaves it Weaker than before.
Dodaoo'i Liver-Tone a Per
fect Substitute
Nearly everybody who has ever
tried calomel for constipation or a
sluggish liver has found thst it gives
only a temporary relief. For cal
omel is such a powerful drug that
it shocks and weakens the "liver
snd makes it less able afterward to
do its duty than in the first place
This is one of tbe reasons why
Saunders 8l Fowden drug store
would rather sell Dodson's Liver-
Tone to you than calomel. We
know that Dodsou's Liver-Tone is
a pure vegetable liver tonic that
will cure constipation quick ly auu
gently without any danger of baa
after effects. We guarantee it to
do this with a guarantee that is
simple and fair. If you buy a
bottle of Dodson's Liver-Tone for
yourself or your children, and do
not find that it is a perfect substi
tute tor calomel, .then come back
to the stote and get your money.
If you don't get value for your
money out of this tonic, it's your
right to expect your money bsck,
and we will gladly give it to you.
