'Editor McDowell Democrat:
"I desire to publish, through
your paper, the lact that i nave
severed my connection with the
Republican party. Many reasons,
quite satisfactory and overwhelm
ing, by this time, to my mind,
for a long time acting upon my
udgment and conviction, have
ed me to this decision, which i3
by no mr-ans a hasty one.
"1 have no unkind word to ut
ter against the party with which
I have for a long time affiliated;
for I realize that the masses who
compose the voting strength of
the party, especially in western
North Carolina, are as honest and
patriotic as any people living.
The pity is that too many of their
leaders regard and use the party"
as a chattel of theirs for the fur
thering of their own personal
ends without regard for the real
upbuilding and future welfare of
the party.
"Hereafter I prefer to cast my
lot with the conservative element
of the Democratic party.
"W. T. Morgan.
"Marlon, May 11, 1908."
Mr. Morgan is a prominent law
yer of the western part of the
state. He gives a good reason
for the change he is making.
Many of the Republican leaders
do ' 'regard and use the party as
a chattel of theirs for the futher
ance of their own personal ends."
Until it is rid of this kind of lead
ers, with eyes for nothing except

We are glad to welcome Mr.
Morgan in the Democratic party,
and promise him that no matter
how often he has voted for Blaine,
we will not hold it against him.

Poll Tax For County and State Must
Not Exceed Two Dollars.
Raleigh Dispatch, 25th,
T J il ? sV .
in a oaten 01 unrty opinions
filed by the Supreme Court this
afternoon it is held, Justice Con
nor writing the opinion and oth
ers concurring, that the poll tax
for county and State shall not ex
ceed two dollars. The case is en
titled, "Railroad vs. Commission
ers" from Mecklenburg. The
court holds that a poll tax of over
two dollars on the head is a viola
tion of the fifth article of-the
State constitution. Over eighty
five counties in the State levy
more than the constitution al
lows, and the decision of this af
ternoon is one of the most im
portant ever handed down.
system, but poisons
such as Poison Oak, Poison ivy,
Nettle Rash, etc., enter through the
open pores and glands, and so thor
oughly do they become looted in the
blood that they are ever present,
or return at certain seasons of each
j ear to torment the sufferer. Salves,
washes, lotions, etc., cannot cure skin
diseases. True, such treatment le-
lieves some of the itching and dis
comfort, and aids iu keeping the skin
clean, but it does not reach tlie real
cause, and at best can be only palli-
ating and soothing. A tnorougu
cleansing of the blood is the only certain cure for skin diseases. S. S. S.,
a gentle acting, safe blood purifier, made entirely 01 vegexaDie ingredients
of the forest and field, is the proper treatment. S. S. S. goes down into the
circulation, and neutralizes the acids and humors, thoroughly cleansing and
purifying the blood, and curing skin affections of every kind. It supplies
to the blood the fresh, nutritive qualities necessary to sustain the skin and,
all other parts of the body, and rids the blood of any and all poisons. S. S. S.
cures Eczema, Tetter, Acne, Salt Rheum, Poison Oak and Ivy, Nettle Rash,
and all other skin troubles, and cures them permanently by removing every
trace of the cause from the blood. Special book on Skin Diseases and any
medical advice desired furnished free to all who write.
THE SWIFT SPECIFIC CO., ATLANTA, JJAJ
I have used your S. S. S., spring and fall,
for the past two years, with the result thai it
tmtiiely relieved rae of a form of Eczema
which my doctor w&3 unable to cure. My
arms, lower limbs, and, in fact, the biggest
poition of my whole body was affected, and
when I hist began S. S. S. the itching, etc.,
was worse, but I continued the remedy with
the result that the dry, itching eruption en
tirely disappeared. I think a great deal of
your mdicine, and have recommended it to
others with good results. It is the best blood
medicine made, and I can conscientiously
recommend it lor the cure of all blood and

Lunch With the Negro, Too.
Fayetteville Observer.
'Solicitor N. A. Sinclair returned
last night from Savannah, Ga.,
where he went to attend the fun
eral of his aunt, Mrs. Mary Mc
Neill. On the train with Mr.
Sinclair was Secretary of War
Wm. H. Taft, leading Republican
candidate for the presidency, and
three attendants, two white men
and a negro.
The Secretary of War and
party boarded the train at Char
leston, having returned from a
trip to Panama. The Secretary
ordered four covers laid on the
table, for dinner, and on account
of the great bulk of the Secretary
the table, which is intended to
seat four people, had to be ex
tended. When the great man
and his three companions ap
peared in the dininj room and
were preparing to take their
seats, the conductor came on the
scene and informed Mr. Taft that
in South Carolina colored men
had to wait until after all the
whites had eaten, and despite the
Secretary's protest his'negro com
panion had to retire. Taft is
certainly bidding high for the
negro vote.

working in the garden. One
day, shortly after the expiration
of his last term as Governor, a
fashionably dressed woman who
had resided in Birmingham only
a short time, and had never seen
Johnson, called on his wife. No
one answered the bell, so she
walked out among the flower
beds where the ex-Governor was
hoeing some geraniums. He
bowed and she asked how long
he had worked for the Johnsons.
"A good many years, madam,"
he replied.
