So the roads must be, pat in good ehspe by that time, There is a lot of loose rocks that must be thrown oat, and tbe bushes along every section of the road nearby touches and most be trimmed No overseer need try to get rid of his order unless bis road is in good shape.

The Reunion of Camp Nino rodTriplettrNo. 1273. wil be held at Walnut Grove A endemy, seven miles west of Boone on Sept. 20th and 21st, 1906, at 11, a. m., and we are expecting the Rev, R. L. Pat ton to preach at 1, p m., on the 20tb. We also ex pect other speakers of promi nence to be present and ad dress the people. The yonng people of Wal not Grove and surroundings will meet at the Academy on Sept. the 8tb to organize a camp of the Sons and Daugh ters of the Confederacy. The good people of t h a community are preparing to feed all who may Attend, and a large crowd is expected, Done by order of the Com rades. E. J. Norms, Comd. W, W. Prehicell. Agt. ine toniederaw reieran s as nociatJon of Watauga, county is to be congratulated upon the broad invitation it bae extended to tbe Union soldiers, who op posed them hi thnes of war, to be present asd enjoy the reunion to be held at Walnut Grove to the near fntnre. Tbe men wbo wore tbe blue were fighting for a cause they deemed Just. Those who wore tbe gray kragbr, Wed and many of them died for cause they thought lost and now it is beautiful indeed to see them meet on a common lev el and enjoy the reunion togeth er, Tbey are all traveling on the same levtl of time to that no discovered country, and again we Bay, tbat the spirit exhibited by tbe old Confederates is most commendable, lor at tbe last roll call tbey will not be asked on which side they fought du ring the war between the States. ii . . j ji 1 !, m : The Caw of Lrncawt. Raeford Fact and Figures. Wonder what the lawyers will say when we say that tbey are in nc small degree responsible for this lawfcbs spirit in the people tbat cauues them to disregard aw? A lawyer will defend his client at all hazards. He will speak of the cause as if th accused were innocent and being wrongful!.? prosecuted. He says 'we,' "us' and 'ours" Why, too can just see the awyers suffering martyrdom or nis man, l ney never want to lose a case none of ns would.and these lawyers nowdays win every case tbe awyers on one side or the other do. No matter what the fellow arraigned before tbe c6Vt is accused of, bis lawyer sets ubout getting him cleared, and may a time a guilty wretch walks free This is alarmingly true of murders The lawyers move to qaasb. to continue to remove, and when they fail to do either they appeal: and after the appeal process fails to work tbey begin to ask for "execu tive elemency" all of which usually allows a bloody hand ed murderer to live oat nearly all his days, and at tbe. expense of the. taxpav ers. And this takes, the peo le's patience. Were we a lawyer we might be doing all we could to pre vent jast ice tbat Is what more tnan naif toe proles sions are at but we do not believe we could ever become so blind as not to be able to see the effect upon the public mind, i And this puguatius disposition of the lawyer is showing Itself npon tbe polit ioal situation. The lawyers are the political leaders - and work up this strong feeling we experience daring cam paigns. Stomach troubles, Constipation No one can reasonably hope for good digestion when tbe bow els are coustipated. Mrs. Charles ualdwin, ot Edwarrigville, 111., says: "1 suffered Irom cbronic constipation and stomach troub 1'3 for several years, but thanks iu vuniuuonaiuB niuiuacu auu Liver Tablets am almost cured." Why not set a package of these tablets and get well and stay well? Price 2oc. For sale by all dealers in Boone and Blowing Rock Drug Co. South Carolina's experi ences last wees and t n I s answer the question whether lynching diminishes crime. Tbe re was felonious assault in Green wood conn tj, foil wed by a lynching. Then in an other county assault of like character nod Another county still another similar assault followed by a thirdly inch ing Meantime a negro goes in sane hearing of the Green wood occurrences, runs amuck, and tries to assault every woman he sees. In S. C. lynching is tbe favorite cor rective and deterrent.

On -4J V StnM, Smm HmwA. la Keaory of Little Hoaurlarat. 1 Overlooking the Training School Building, in Boone is a little knole, At the summit of this hill is a cemetery and in this cemetery sleeps the frame of one of the brightest lights of Bonne, vis, little Homer Moretz. Homer was dearly loved by all who knew him, and was the idol of a happy but now almost heart broken father and mother. I have bad tbe pleasure of being thrown in, company with this little fellow a great deal and I made it a point to stndv bis movements and. aets, as f do most boys I am with. This little fellow attract ed my attention most be cause of bis striking peculiar ities which pecularities showed him to be one of- the brightest and most loving of children. There is no form ot G od's creation so beautiful as a lit tie child. Homer was an angel on earth. God gives us such to dwell among us and il it were uot for thesemgels this would pe a dark, lonely world in deed. . As Homer went round on his itcher be always greet ed everyone with a smile. I can still hear him say it seem, "Arfur's come" . as he often did when I would came from school. He was a Btar on earth but is now a star of morebrillian cy in heaven. Homer has gone to join the band of singers beyond this Tale of sorrow and is waiting for the friends bo left behind to join him over yonder. My dear mamma, yon cannot weep. I'm living with tbe anirels. For me tbe blessed 8avior keeps, I'm living with the angels. , 1 loved you, ma, yon know I did I m living witn tbe angels. And you. papa, I'm sure I did, I'm living with the angels. 1 loved my sieters dearly, too, I'm living with the an rein, And dear little George, I loved biro, too, I'm liying with tbe angels. Oh, friends if me yon wish to rro living with tbe anirels. Let's all in tbat fair city meet. And an live with tbe angels. J. Abthvb Wilson.
