' " Since my arrival here! ha ve seen many things of interest. I have visited the old -moss- covered ta.vlor shop in which Andrew Johnson, our "17th President of the U. S., used to oj)erate"at the Tailor's trade. ; It is : strange indeed j to look at the little U X20; shop, and its almbst decayed weatherboarding and the lit tie sign which is still hang ing over the door, . lettered thus: "A. Johnson, Taylor." To think that the one v,ho once occupied that humble j little shop attained to the highest honors that can be j bestowed upon anv American citizen, and never once losing faith in the pcopleand even believing that they would help him to bear the much honored American flag to the highest standard. I have also visited the grave and seen the magnificent monument thatihasbeen erec ted to the memory of Presi dent Johnson. It is indeed a magnificent structure of mar ble, towering from thirty to fortv feet into the air. I havealsovi8ited the place here where General Morgan was killed, yes, the much dreaded tan talizer of the Yan kees during the civil war. Just a word to my brother Odd Fellows in Watauga. 1 will never forget you. Do all in your power for. the good "of Odd Fellowship. This conn ty has several thousand Odd Fellows, and this city has a fine thre-story lodge and the hall is as fine as a king's pilace and lighted .by electric ity. There are many things I would like to tell you about it, but will wait until 1 see you in the lodge room. Perhaps some of you would like to know something of my business here., I am hav ing a very good' trade and it is increasing all the time.

It is a welcome visitor tu me ev ery Sunday, With best wish es for all my, Watauga friends I a m Very truly ; ', VA. AHolsclawI ' A Letter from Zioaritle, V. 0. . In a recnt issue of the Sou thern Baptist is "a statement is made by the editor of that paper, that the present edit or of the Democrat has not treated the Baptist people of Watauga county fairly be cause he has refused to pub lish f he proceedings of their meetings, or that is at least the impression I gather from theSouthern Baptist. I have not the copy before me, ther fore I cannot quote the ex act language. , , I think the editor of the Southern faptist has been misinformed about the mat ter, as he . spent some time in our count this full, and no doubt received his informa tion while -here. Now, it is probable that the editor of the Southern Baptist wasnot to blame in the matter, but that his Informer was mista ken;; y It is quite probable that the censure grew out of an ac cident that occurred some years ago. The program or proceedings of a Fifth Sunday meeting were sent to the edi tor of the Democrat with a request to publish, and un fortunately: the proceedings were lost, and as a conse quence they did not appear, although the editor wrote to the clerk to rewrite them. ABfarasiny personal know- edge extends, Mr. Rivers, the editor of the Democrat, has treated .'the' Baptist people fairly, and, indeed I have evi deuce us pastor of the Ztoone Baptist church where Mr, Riv ers lives and works, that he is their friend. I think th editor othe Democrat is a man of good judgement, aqd of course he could not afford to slight or mistreat the people who help him in his chosen work by ta king and reading his paper. Again, my connection and. ac quaimanee with him has sat isfied me that he is a gentle man, and as such, he would not mistreat a very large per cent of the citizens of his own county. It is true that the Demo crat has made prominent the work of the Methodist minis ter, bu. it should be remem bered that the Methodist preacher lives in Boone and has a better opportunity to let lis" "work : and plans be known to the public through the Democrat. I am persua ded that if the Baptist prea cher lived at Hoone he would be accorded the same privi lege by the editor. I tbink as citizens or Wa tauga county we should all take an interest; in our coun ty paper, though we may not agree with its policy in every particular'. I ha ve a high per sonal esteem for the editor, and have no' cause to com plain atany treatraentlhave received from the Democrat, but thank the paper for it?

' , : .Very truly, E. F. Jones, Zionville, N. C, Feb. 1900, There is no better remedy for. the babies than Chamber laiu's Cough Remedy. Its pleasant taste and prompt and effectual cures make it a favorite with mothers and dmall children. It quickfy cures their coughs and colds, prevents pneumonia or other serious consequences. It also cures croup and has been us ed in tens of thousands of ch 6C8 without a single failure so far as we have been able to learn. It not only cures croup, but when it isgivenas soon as the croup appears, it wjll prevent theattack. In ca ses of whooping cough it li quifies the tough mucus, ma king it easier To expectorate, and lessens the severity ' and frequency of th? paroxysms of coughing, thus depriving that disease of all dangerous consequences.

Of the debt some $20,000 was se cured not long before its com pletion. From the verysturt the university has been a great success. The Baptists are justly prouo of it nnd so are Raleigh people without regard to sect or creed. Ral eigh Post. M. B.

It is related that the solicitor in a Georgia court once overheard a conversatioa between his cook and a nurse who were discussing the recent funeral of a member of their race, at which there had been a profusion of flowers. The nurse said: "When I diedou't plant no flowers on my grave, but plant a good old water mel on vine, and when it gets ripe you come dar, and don't you cat it, but jes bus it on de grave and let d'at good old juice dribble down through the ground."

"About 10 o'clock this morn ing a horseless wagou loaded ed with cow less milk collided with a brainless rider of a chain less wheel. The luckless wheel. man was badly injured, and be ing homeless and friendless, he was taken in a horseless cab to the borne of the triend less, where his death was painless in an hour or less, it was afterwards learn ed that he was the inventerot smokeless powder and the public covered his corpse vrith thornless roses." ' - .". .'.'.'.' : NO. 4 : 7 Ebrros ho well oh betait "a Editor Howell, f the At- ' lanta Constitution, is inclin ed to differ slightly with Urp. Bryan on the subject : of ex--, pansion, but he knows it would be fQlly to substitute any man for the'Nebraskan as a candidate for President ; on the democratic ticket. The Constitution sate:;1 "Therrla no democrat today as popular as Mr. Bryan. There is ho lender who bo completely and clearly rep resents the masses of thedem ocra tic voters. There is no mail, even among the repub licans, whose movements at tract so much attention or larger ..crowds without re gard to party. To substi tute for the leader of thepeo- pie any other democrat at this time would mean cer tain defeats: to substitute a gold democrat would mean the annihilation of the pres-. e n t democratic organiza tion." Any man, o r any newspaper, who seeks to de- , feat the nomination of Mr. Bryan for the presidency is doing the party to which he.7 professes to belong an injury.' Mr. Bryan can get uiore votes today, next week or next year than any other man in the democratic par ty. He stands furdemocrat- ic principles, and the effort to side-track him is simply the work of euemies to the democratic party in this country. , If such men as Jo siah Patterson had then way, the republic would be' changed to a monarchy at once. Chattanooga-News. In a supreme moment, in , the debate leading to t h e French revolution, there was apause and it seemed that the wheel was turning back ward. It was then that old Barbereux, tbe delegate from Marseille arose and shouted, 'Send to Marseilles for six mundred men who know how to die.'.' They sent and the six hun dred men started for the gay city, chanting the notes of the soul-inspiring Marseilles hymn. And as they came oth ers joined them, until there were half a million men thun dering at the gates of Paris. , And the revolution went for ward, Scarce one hundred representatives of thej white men and women in North Carolina sit in this chamber. Small band to hold the desti nies of so grand a people. Let us here, and now, raise the hymn of our redemption, and as we fight for the glory of our manhood and woman hood, and the guardian of our Commonwealth, others will catch the cry and two Hundred thousand sovereigns Will proclaim in the coming election tbeabsolure freedom of our State. This is the day to take the measure of men. The true sons of North Caro lina must not fail her in this hour. Let not this revolution fail. We must go forward.
