Watauga Democrat. ft. C. Bircrf, W .11. Jirney , I. Proprietou . Thursday, Ma rrh 30, 1905. ffaUnga at tlio Iunogaration. . "-Mr, Edit on: Oar historic and public spirited .townabip is never behind when'jtcdmes to doing the hnifnViome thing. So just before, tho inaugura tion of President Roosevelt a largpgathering of onr bent and - most'snbstnntial oiti tens met. and decided that the ceremonies at Washing ton would be very incomplete and a terrible one gallus af fair if oneof our citizens didn't take hold and run it about as nigb on a level as a thing of that size could go. So if was the sentiment of that meeting that your humble servant would be eminently suitnble to tatce charge of af t: l mua at rriiMiingiou uii iup 4th day of Match, in thegood year of 1905. And your hum ble servant always subservi ant to the will of his people, commenced forthwith to gir die his loins and pack h i i knapsack and break for the ranch that's run by Teddy up in the District. To recount nil the h a r d- ships your patriotic, though humble servant suffered on the road would take up to much of your valuable space; suffice it to say that he mins edthe path numbers of tiaw and in consequence had to swim the Potomac three times before he left the camp, but little things like that could not cool his ardoi, m pushed right on and came in on time with two punkinpies and a hard boiled egg left. Mr. Editor, you would scarcely have known the place; they had grubbed out moRt of the stumps, swept uj and dusted and whitewash) and worked the road and ev erything looked as decent as if they knew our township had sent one of its foremost citi Hens to lend his elagant pres fnce to give tone and stabili ty to the proceedings. Well I walked about a good while and finally met a bv with a fihsing pole and a mouth full of bates and I askpd him where Teddy Roosevelt lived and be said "Thar in the White House, of course." Ho t went cross the road and feoliowed at the gate and u big, fat sow nigger came to the door and naked what I wanted. I fold her I wanted to see the Presideut, that. I was on the committee from H'atauga, and that I had come to give some ndvice us to how a thing of that size should be run. She said the ,A f I.UIUVUI H MO 111 I CI 1 11 III 17 jost then, was off on a bear hunt but was looking for him every minute, Well, 1 walked down the big road to the capital when lo and behold ! who should I free but Teddy himaeh' coming galloping up on his mule with his mule wiih his rifle, lari at, hunting knife and spurs, right up to the fence of the cnpitol and hitched and up on my word he looked like a half-starved coyote for he told me afterwards that he toad fo gotten the day a n d was-600 miles off at day right, but be said the way he stock spurs to that mule was a plum sight, and that he ladn't had any breakfast, whereupon I gave him our j)unkeo pie and my boiled i; and you Just ought to 'ha re men him Jick.'em up. Well, we went in ,'ind found old man Fuller (an bjOeorfte he was fuller'n than a tik) and told him he wanted to take the oath of office orany other old thing that he had about the shop. The old W low kinder rolled up one eye and pointed to a big black bottle under a pile oi shav ings in one corner and said, "hie. the best stuff at t h e X Roads, boys, help youi youiKelves." Teddy took a big born and passed it to me and being as how," we Hint a making any our town 8hiu at present and beingsor ter dry, I took the (minute. ' By that time the old mini Fuller had got on. his pgs and told Teddy to hold up both hands. '"Not by u darn night" said Teddy. "When my hands go up I hive to look. into the muzzle of some thing wuss than that mug of yours.' Just then I stepped up, be ing the only sober one of the three, and told led the old man only wanted to swear him in, and that it want a ....... i i. tt i reiuar noni up iikh ne was used to on the plains. "Well dog my ox il 1 recogniz-d what the old tenderfoot was after," and up went his hands. Hang! Sang! hellool whoopee! rang out in the road and Teddy with a wild comanche war whoop cleared the table, chairs and chest. Them' 's my cow boys Rough Rider. Hurrah for me a n d the 4th of July !" he scream ed at the top of his voice. In Ices than a miuute be was surroutvJed by n sec of the llounhest Riders on the globe. II hen Col.

They cracked the at mosphere for 11 miles. Then Booker Washington came running in wich a rail and some of the cowboys threw Teddy up on it and awav they went up the road yell- 1 55?i rrft Fat ii of iccount is why to a baby ; that babies are fat.

Well me and Tedily to be BIUa llUll tit ' ola ii- "jmilu'l with the gang and '.then ''set 'em up all around and bv that time night was. coining on and I commenced to get restless and wanted to start back, but Teddy said I must stay and go to. the -grand dance that night with him. So I stuid with him and as soon as we got supper and a smile we went down to the pension ofhe where they were going to have the dance and we hadn't mote than got in than they began to a r live. Teddy said the women just dressed out of sight and I believe it, caiue I didn't see any that was dressed at all. "How do you like that cos tume, Major," said Teddy as the first woman arrived, "cos tume," snid I, "why I don't see any costume." She is three times as naked as 'she was when she came in the world und every woman that came in after that dad on less e.x cept one. and her dress was cut so low that it didn't come up to her knees. "Oh," said Teddy, "lt me tell you about my bear hunt, for every man likes to hear bear tales." "Hold on, Ted dy, hold on. said I, as it pear ed like I wanted to go.,' dust then one of the syren nymphs came up and asked the Prus ident to dance with her. and upon my word it did my old heart good tosee Teddy jump out there und do the hoochy coocuy with that gal better than "Little Egypt" hvraelf could have doue it.

' Two years ago during a political campaign, 1 caught cold after being verheated, which irritated iny throat and was finally compelled lo stop, as 1 could not speak aloud. In my extremity a friend advised me to use Chamberlain's Cougb Remedy. 1 took two doses that af ternoon and could not believe my senses when I found the next morn ing the inflammation had largely subsided.

Pei-hap the hap piest..Iiomej that young ieo ple ever know is when they are building tlvstt beautiful airy cnntles in the nir which more often than otherwise, ere they nn completed. Thin castle-buildintr, is commend able for no one ever renchetl a good position in life with out a desire in youth to get to the top. But there in n kind of cuttle building that is Useless and injurious. It is a waste of time to he forever living in the clouds, when a close application to buai- nesH would Abetter. The little girl when nhe uikfs her first leHson in musie is, if she. fails lo n iethif,'cokirp for ward to the' time when she will perform better than any of her clans mates. The little bo.v, as he reads of Caesar or Napoleon,' or ;Alexanier, has an ideal mapped out. in his mind greater than tiny of llien, ii net might he not be posHible for him to be t h e one? If is necessary to build the right kind of castles, for "It strengthens the imagina tion and develops the crea tive powers of the mind." Thf person who builds no castles, is d.-ad to his sur roundrrurs, and thi one who lives in the clouds without ac tion in the gieat drama of life is a failure.
