Of A .' No! 37, V0L7 BOONE,. ; WATAUGA COUNTY, X. C, ttttJltSDAY JULY, 25. 18D5 mi i m r ir iy n i o i 11 1,- or; . WASHINGTON LKTTElt. from our Begftlar Correspondent Secretary Carlisle will re turn to Washington t h i 8 week,; .He will find the buwi npHMoftht treasury ilepnrt ment moving: along; smooth ly nnd Hatiafnetorilj. Tim tirt HhUunent.of gold drawn from the treMHttry ranee the last salrt of hon.ls, took piece last week, nnd, although there is a disposition in re publican quarters to make that little shipment of a quar terofa million dollars ap pear to he the beginning of a determined raid on the gold in the treasury, it Is not re girded as either significant or important by treasury oU ficials. One of them speak ing about K said: "It was merely a shrewd dodge on the -jlart of an obscure bank ing firm in New York to ob tain some free advertising. They know that such n t-hip meiit at this time will be -oin mented upon by all the large newspapers of the world, and they hope to make this ad vertisement of their firm pay in other ways. Thit if all there is in it." - The midsummer political dullness at Washing ton was stirred up a little by the an hounoement tint the "men who manage the Bimutnllie .Lenyne, otherwise known ns the Silver party, had r hang ed their minds about wait ing until the old parties had nominated their president in ticket and now intend that the silver ticket bp first In the fiald. It has also heen an nouneed that the same gen tlemen have concluded that Sibley who made a talking tonkas the suggested iandi date of the silver parly, will not do, and they are looking around for a new candidate. It is no secret that this change has been brought a hout by the certainty felt by the League people that the democratic party will not split on the silver question, but will fight the presiden tial campaign united on the platformidopted by the Na tional Democratic Conven tion to be held next year. An employee of the office of the Comptroller of Currency, Mr. W. L. Sealy. whohasjust returned from an official trip to Tennessee, on business con nected with several national banks which are in thehandsl of receivers, says of the husi ness and political situation in that state: "I found a very satisfactory condition of bus inessundti feeling of confi dence among the people that a n era of good ti mes w as at hand. In Middle and West Tennessee the free silver sen timent undoubtedly domi; nates. In the earstern part dl the state the silver feeling U not so strong. The demo crats will not split on that is sue, howevei, but will make a straight fight inside party lines and the minority wdl bow to the expressed will of the minority.'' Mr. J. S. Clarkson,of lawn, the ex-republican boss is one ot the tew members of his par ' tv who isn't afraid to . con demn the methods Mr. Theo doro Roosevelt has adopted since he became Police Com missioner of New York City to boom his candidacy for the United States Senate. He says "KooseveJt is enforcing; laws that eighty or ninety per cent of the population' of New York City disapprove of, and I frequently hear New Yorkers say they i egret that they voted the republi can ticket last fall. We had an average republican major ity of seventy thousand in lowjf until we got prohibi tion. I hen the state became democratic by twenty thou sand. Roosevelt is like a bov with his firsr pair of skates, and the republican party is sure to be bld responsible for what he hasdone.". While Mr. Clarksou doesn't use ns vigorous language as Sena tor Hill did to convey his o- pinion of Roosevelt, it is evi dent that they do not differ very much on tlintsulnVer, al though wide apart upon ma hy otheis. Roosevelt's Sena toriai aspirations are likely to proven mighty good thing for the New York democrats. Secretary Herbert is not a- Jone in thinking that the six m.w gun boats provided for by the last Congress and for the construction of which he is now asking bids will prove to be about the most Use ful vessels in our' Navy. Thy will all be smallcompared lo ihe cruisers and battle ships, and of light, draught, and the cost oi each is not, to exceed 1230,000, exclusive t,l the tu mor. Three i.f these boats ate to be provided with sails as well as steam power. They will be just the vessels needed in various foreign water in which we have to keep a ves- se. oi some st-rt nearly an tne time. They will carry small t i i i crews and win ue ciie.ipiv maintained and they can per form the duty of looking out for American interests in lots of places just, as effectively as one of the cruisers that costs tin times as i.iuch to kee up. secretary Lament has re turned from his long western trip. He speaks in the high est terms of the reception lie met with, and is especially enthusiastic, in his praise of the western people and their whole souled hospitality II is glad he went and wants t go again. Last June Dick Crawford brought his twelve-months old child, 'suffering from in fantile diarrhoea, to me. It had been wnned a t-i months old and had a I ways been sick ly. I give it tjte the usua treatment in such cases but without benefit. The cluh kept glowing thinner unti it weighed out little more than when born, or perhaps ten pounds.

Nelson, who is in the drug business at Kingville, Mo., has so much confidence in Chamberlain's Colic, Chol era nml Diarrhoea Remedy that, he warrants every bot tle ami offers to refund the money to any customer who is not satisfied after using it. Mr. Nelson takes no risk in do ing this because the remedy is a certai'1 cure for the dis eases for which it is intended and lie knows it. It is for sale by all druggists. Wilkesboro Chronicle: J.

What is the secret of her far cinntion for all classes of peo pie, regardless ot their politi cal opinions or social rank?

Not the fact that she is pret ty, though she unquestioria bv is. ThaUs not her chief charm. She is not only pret ty but beautiful. As she-was leaving Washington at the close of her husband's first administration, ex Secretory Bayard said to he: "(Jood-bye. You brought nothing but sunshine with you and yo'.i are taking a great deal of it away." "That remark gives us the lue to her influence. She is not only beautiful without whe is beautiful within.
