Cody in Linco'nton Journal, We were all very sorry to bid each other adieu, howev er ire hopj to meet here at Boone in the Training School tor the spring term which will be after our schools have closed. This session that has just closed has been my first to attend theTrainingSchool at Boone, N. C, and Iatu well pleased with the work th school is doing. I want to 6ay to the good people of Lincoln county that the , time has come when all must have an education. 1TT1 a a .a . 1 v nen we siuuy tne uioie we find in the Lamb's Book of Lite of the Almighty God, a sentence that reads like this: "My people perish for the lack of knowledge.'' I think this is true and if my friends hate noticed how little knowl edge: there, is in different parts of the'couhtry, ami make a careful study of this fact, they would not hesitate to attend the Appalachian Training School at Boone where they can get tuition free in all the common school studies, by teaching two; terns in the public schools of the State. : As I am going to pay the friends ot my native county a visit, and my mind is wan dering first in Watauga and then in Lincoln county, lean not write abort sentences as Patrick Henry the great, or ator did, but nevertheless,; I shall try to throw emphasis the more strongly on what I have to say. Just think of the delightful climate we have in Western North Carolina, and especial ly in H'atauga county. The attendance this sum mer'bas shown the apprecia tion of the advantages this institution is able to give. School opened here J une ; the 7th with 90 students, and closed July 29th with 160. There were people here from twelve counties, and I am sorry to sav there were more from every other county than from Lincoln since the writer was the only one from Lin coin, t After considering the srhool named above, let us go on and consider ; the new building which is being e rect ed in a beautiful pine grove fifty yards from the old one. . Some five or six years ago' two of Watauga's nest citi zens established a school her at Boone. Their school grew and a greater ' work had to be done. The people of differ ent counties filled the house and as the cry was in the Civ il war, '. On to Richmond," ao was the crv here, "A higher standard of education." What could he none that would benefit the Stnte uny more than to establish a Traini ng Srhool? This school was established by the.Legis lature of North Carolina in 1903. The new building is not finished yet, but we hopt to sec it completed before the next summer ' term .ojx-ns. Tim building is 'of. brick - and is a ni-e oiip. The house will coNt $7,000. nnd ttVre art other Imihiings to be adilel to the institution.-.. Leaving hII this with you and s?,viig but a fnw words more if you want to enjoy tfu' bnautifnl mountain twene ry and rmat, and to kno ho tft tich.1ti8t attend the I o ftl;n!3Hj Tr:iin'T ho ; Nowlaad'a Majority. Salisbury Sun. With few exceptions the lea ding Rowan county Demo crats who have so far express ed themselves believe that W. C. Ncwland, the Democratic opppnetn oj S(enrer Black burn, will sweep the district. Hon. Theo. F. Kluttz, the present representative from this district who declined a renominution isnmongthose who. believe that Mr. New land's majority will be in ex cess of his own in 1902. It is a well known fact that all the money, influence and politic cal subterfuge possible , was employed In Blackburn's sn supreme effort to defeat Mr. Kluttz in 1902. ' Being nn off year there were about 900 .Democrats in Rowan county who -did not go to the . polls at all. This, a presidential year, will bring out the full Democrat ic vote and Mr. Kluttz stnt ed in an interview with a, 'Sun representative that he had no doubt but that Mr. New land's majority would be lar get than hisown. Mr Kluttz's interest in the campaign will be active tn point of personal influence and work on the stump. Mayor Boydeu, recently e leered ehah man of the Demo eratlc Executive. Committee and who has served in this capacity for .15 years, says; MriNewlarid may carry Row an by; 2,000; favorable con ditions such as I now see may increase this majority. No candidate of those in the race could have polled as ma ny votes as Hon. Theodore F, Kluttz!ith the same con ditions' prevailing, but we will have out a full vote in Rowan this tyear and; News land will sweep the Co. He is honest, earnest, broad-mind ed and should receive the vote of every Democrat in the county. Walter: Murphy, Esq., who was one of the leaders of the Hackett forces not only in Rowan county but in theH Wilkesboro convention, said: "Newlano will get as many votes as tlm State and coun ty tickets in Rowan. I think Parker will run ahead of ail."- '. ':r.- - - ; Senator Overman says be believes Mr. Newland will in crease the Democratic major ity in this district in view of the fact than the hardest fight ever put up by the Re publicans was made in this district last year, and the further fact that a presiden tial year always brings out a large vote. "The more the people seeof Will Newland the better they n ill like h i m. - His personal character is unassailable and bis political record is beyond reproafh." Hon.! John S. Henderson chairman of the Democratic Executive-Committee of this district thinks there is no doubt of Mr. Will Newland's election. CASTOR I A For Infanta and Children. Til M WHi Aln BcsgMl;;' "i:coun,ry-. T,,i"" Bean Vt natsu of J9 I The Presidential Succession. Philadelphia Record. Republicans are makingan amount of fuss over Mr.' Da vis' age that would be ridic ulous if it, were not signifi cant of .their trepidation and their shyness of the re n I is sues in the conteht. : So far as the continuity of goverment goes the death of a President is a very consid erable matter, and if there were no Vice-President it nould make no practical dif ference, Mr. Hendricks and Mr. Hobart died in the vice presidency. There was not a citizen of the U. S. we trust so foolish as;to be , nervous over the continuity of the government, or even the po litical control of the admin istration, i The latter was in some peril until the presiden tial succession law of 18 years ago, but siuce then there has not been a remote possibility that the will of the people expressed in a na tional election would be. do feated by two deaths. ; The Secretary ; of . Stato is more likely to be a man of presidential size than the Vice-President, It would nev er have occurred to a Repub lican convention to nominate Theodore Roosevelt for Pres ident, nor would Mr. McKin ley or any other- President appointed him Secretary, of State. Yet uccording to the assurances of all Republicans he has proved to be one of ourgreatest Presidents. Why should anyone fear, then, that the presidential func tions would devolve upon a man uutitted to bear them? Do not our Secretaries of State occupy greater places iti the nation'd history than our Vice Presidents?, If tMr. McKinley had been succeeded by ,ohn Hay instead of The odore .Ropsevelt, if General Garfield had been succeeded by James G. Blaine instead of Chester A. Arthur will any Republican pretend that the republic would have taken harm? Why then, should any one worry because in the j next four years Mr. Parker might be assassinated and Mr. Davis might die of old age and the presidential func tions might devolve upon a manlike John Jay, or Judge Greshanvof ; Mr. Olney. or Mr. Bayard, or Mr. Blaine? a' sweet breath t is a never failing sign of a healthv stomach. When the breath is bad tha stomach is out of order. There is no remedy in the world to equal Kodol Dyspepsia sure for curing in digestion dyspepsia and all stomach Jisorders.

' Kodol digests what you eat and mukes the stomach tweet Sold by M, B. Black burn. ,. ' . . The Republican paptrs do not like Judge Parker's speech of acceptu nee. The real reason why thpy do not like it is to be found in tne al most universal approval ol it by tbfi independent press what hurts! '. Tb f-;!Ko liUte pin. , Storlea of Paul Krngrer. London Dispatch At seven yearsof nge Paul Krnger, the late President of the Boers, was shooting big game; at eleven he killed his first lion, whan thirteen he wasflghtingwith his father against the blacks, and at spyanteen he held his first public office as a magistrate. lie was born Oct. 10, 182o and his grandfather, thefirst settler of the family in South Africa, came, not from Hol land, but from Germany. The name in the Transvaal is pronounced Kreeger, and is written Kruger and not with the umlaut, as some Ann;ri can and English newspapers write it. Like, Jonbert, the Boer General he was a Cape ColoniBt by birth, haVing been born at Hasten burg, in the Coletiburg district of t he colony. He was only ten years old when his parents moved thereto by what they regarded as the unjustifiable interference of the British Government with their slave migrated north-ward with Borne five or six thousand of their compatriots into the unexplored veldt, . The tales of' Krnger's youth are well nigh past bei lief. He himself vouches for his ability when a boy to stand on his head on a gal loping horsp, and the stories of his skill with firearms and of his strength are on a par with his feats of horseman shlpl , He stood six feet high weighed 225 pounds and .his depth of chest and breadth of shoulders were those of a Colossus. He had the rude, brute strength of an x, ami a yarn current and universal ly believed in the Transvaal has it that he once killed a wild buffalo by holding its head in tbi water uutil the beast was strangled. END OF BITTER FIGHT. "Two physician- had a long and stubborn fight with an abcessonmy right lung" writes J, F, Hugets of DuPont Gar "and gave me up for lost. Everybody thought my time had come.
