Charlotte Observer. , The press agent of the South- er an occasional letter from rsew Orleans, sprinkles the diannnd dust on her latest effusion in which she lauds the western men for their appreciation of the rights and liberties of the women. She finds that out of the sittings of the stream of National elec tional election results some gold en flakes of wisdom glitter, "lbe ra08t brilliant one is that the Western women are on the politi cal summit, she says. "ve all know how Eastern and Southern sections have elevated women to imDractical oedestals. The ma jority of women do not know this bnt the majority of men are dead sure of thisaltitudinouspo 3ition of womanhood. This emi nence accounts for a number of facts. Why pay envelopes do not reach the elevated lady she is perched too high for access! w by she is working longer hours per day than men it is too fatigu- ing to step down from the height to rest and then climb back a- crftin for worshiD, Why she can fc .

But why specu- lutfl further on the Eastern and Lmit,hern aneela? The Wectern women are the golden nuggets of Demoqracy." That line of talk is going to make, some men laugh; it may make others feel uncom fortable, and it is sure to make some of the legislators mad.

My increased majority over two years ago is sufficient an swer by t he people of the district to the vile, dirty campaign of misrepresentation conducted a- gainst, me. I am also deeply thankful for the very valuable services rendered by your paper in this contest. Yours very respectfully, R. L. DOUGHTON. I E. Moretz Succeeding Well in Idaho. Mr. A. E.

We had 80 acres in beans this year, and that meant work and lots of it, but 1 am glad to Bay we made good on the crop. We raised a little more thau 74,000 pounds ot beans. After paying our rent we had nearrly 63,000 pounds left, which we sold at from 5 to 8 cts. wr pound. Then we raised a good crop of oats.

Editor Democrat: 1 notice in ast week's issue of your paper you say, "Unless you write us the news, etc., we cannot publish it." So will write you a check for another year subscription, as this might interest you more than anything else I could write. I live in Avery county and will say that it is noted for roads and toll-gate building. And, it seems, they build more toll-gates than thev do roads.
