There ia no arid of effort, no avanue f rreearrh that we do not reach and investigate, that we do not muter and explain. Havea't we already elevated appendieitie to a permanent aad com mending pinnacle of fame in ail the realms of faeinaa, until the humble den izen of the rural district can have it juet aa suuuessfully aa the rich city dweller? It doae not renin re the eye of a prophet to aee the exalted bright of popularity hoekwrm and pellagra are deatuied sooa to occupy through our ef forta and libberality.

But I now recall on which happened a few daya ago, that will be sufficient to aaaiaia the pohat. It wa ia a North Carolina earn inanity fc Bowel to fame and Federal aeurta aa PerHatown On maa aaid ta another: "One af my eowa la dona said gone dry." "Ton donl eayr" aaid hia neighbor. What alia for the agency of the press ia upholding the hands of other brave and courageous leaden. A few abort yean ago it re quired true braverv to go into some of our rural communities and advocate local school tax. In many of the countiea of this state the old rough trails called roads full of hole, rocks, roots and gulliea, are fast giving wav to graded and meced amized roads. In many other counties the desire to improve conditions in a similar manner is steadily growing. And in this work, the greatest in im portaaue of all the industrial and pro greseive problems at present confront ing our people, the press has aa iatluea tinl and a proud part. Interest and pride are eonatantfy in creasing in better and mora attractive and oommodioua churches. Rural tele phone linea are penetrating all sections of the state, and thua neighhborhoode are braught into closer touch and more intimate relationship with each other. The people do not have toe lonesome and faraway feeling. Rural free mail delivery route have been established in nearly all aectiona, and letters sad papers ara delivered almost daily at the very doors of country homes, ao that there is a higher degree of contentment aa the farm. As these routes are operated by the number of pieces of nail handled, and if materially reduced would be discontinued, the newspapers aould be worth the price if never read --care being exercised not to feed them to the oowe and mules. So that the farmer who desire to keep posted -aa to the happenings of the world, or to hold his rightful place as a business man, can keep up wit h the market quotations just s easilv as the man in the bank ing or brokerage office at the railroad station in touch with tbe telegraph, for the farmer can have the newspaper end (he telephone. He can, if he be so in clirmd, watch the training of a prise fighter, study the capture of ring tailed monkers ia Africa, or naze on the ever I flowing and remarkable stream of ad vice that ia perpetually going out to other nations. I might continue, indefinitely, to enu merate the many evidences of service the newspapers render in the uplift of country life; but I would be repeating that with which you ara familiar. Through our methods of publicity we are dairy distributing information aad object Ieaaona that are incentives to the building of better homea and the cut tivatioa of finer aesthetic tastes. These things contribute to a better opinion and a "jf her degree of respect for one's self. They are powerful educational forees, furnishing the opportunity which ambition aeeks. Of course it must not be supposed thai the advantage that ara coming to people hi the rural eommunltie of the present day mean that they can lira in ease and idleness, alwava inhaling the sweet rragrejH-e of a rose gent LEAPED BEFORE LOOKED lowaa Democrat rut la Bole by Chair maa Sims. 1 Z.. tham dednstod orohihi-1 fT "du.nn Ue. d.nip. af ! . - ; , . pwi un the contra fur ma ie mv cow let and ( ... - ' ' draasiad s canv of the Chariot l News, and the hSMned cow at It and Diore intelligent effort bee dawned We sre getting in the bast work in the uplift of oenntry life when we teach Haw is that for a newspaper's power . .. r -, " " " and effelTaneee f , Ue. nno. tv. ... !.

W oodson, chairman of the Democratic executive commuter, a gentleman whom I never had the pleas ure of meeting, so tar aa I remember, repliea to resoiut loas passed by tbe Ht publican executive commute at l-heir meeting last riaturday, one of which states tuat tbe chairman ot the Rrpub lican executive committee was instruct ed to submit a copy of a certain reeolu ties to the chairman of the IJemocrai ic executive commite. Just why Mr. Woodson did not- await for aaid letter, we know not except it be, that he pre t erred to take his medicine in broken doses certain it is that 1 posted in per son the aaid letter to him Monday, June 6. Yea, I am "indisposed and at home" aa you state, but 1 am disposed to treat all matters of public concern with ab solute fairness, and ehall never attempt to reply to any auch aarcasm or ridicule. Hut to this resolution: Aa cnairman oi the Republican executive commute the qaestion of the use of whisky for cam paign purposes, and our position in re gard to aama, waa submitted to me be fore uur meeting by an intelligent Ke pubtican, not a member ef ths commit tee. I submitted the matter to our com mithee, the question waa fully and free ly disenaaed and praoticaNy unanimous lv endorsed, there being Id memben of the committee present. In my later to Mr. Woodson I gave expression to my personal views, aa tol vee : "Speaking for myself personally, 1 mestly hope that you will use your influence with your committee to nave it cooperate with ua both in spirit and in letter, te ue end mat tne ponucai contest which ts about to begiu may be conducted on a high plane, and that nothing will be done that will tend in the slightest degree to pervert the pub lie mind or deprave the public morale." But Mr. Woodson save: "JHe tenor of your committee's resolution would in dicate that the practice ot influencing votera by mean of whisky had obtain ed in your party in Wis past." Replying thereto, of my own knowledge, I know nothing a to th ua of whisky by either party in Rowan certain members af our committee, however, stated that it had been used and fraely for campaign purpoeea in Rowan, and hence tbe com mittee aaid yea, we are oposed to the use of spirits for politics I purposes they hsve spoken out like men- sn.l while I do not know other then youi elf the nsme of a single man compos ing your committee- we believe the have tbe courage Ut speak out msiifulh in this mslter, and not rely solely upon your statement tlist "in view ot tin fact that the Democrstlc executive com mittes ha at no time contemplated th. use of whisky in the campaign, 1 am s1 a loss to understand why it should U reonested to take any action on the ml, ject." 1 reepertfully eubmit that in in transmitting the resolutions referred l. I did so at the request the llcpubli can executive committees In vour rc ply it will be noted that you ssy "!'' am at aloes, etc.. etc. Are you airihori.cd to soeak far your committee? Whether such a practice has obtaincj in the peer in either party is of no im portsnce at the present time, tor th fropoeition ie and you can not escape pool it by begging the question shMLr or sot vour committee ivil! I place itself on record as being oppoae.1 to it in the future. Should it do so I would then be in a position to congratulate you upon the j determination of your committee to ( abandon this method of gaining vote, and 1 agree with you that this practice i is both unlawful snd pernicious 1 st least hope lht yon will not finally assume the province of bind ing your committee without even con - ; rutting them. i See letter of June 6, which follows, to which no reply has at this hour been received.
