The DURHAM RECORDER. Semi-Weekly. EVERY TUESDAY AND FRIDAY. By ZED. P. COUNCIL. ESTABLISHED 1820. Entered as second class matter August 1903, at the postofflce at Durham, N. C, under the act of Congress of MarcL 3 1S79. Subscription Rates : One year $ 1.0c S x months 50 cent Taree months 35 ceim Rates for advertising made known on application. DURHAM, N. C, Oct. 9, IOCS If both parties are gaininp strength rapidly where are the recruits coming from? Of course they will all be elec ed now, but after the votes have been counted they will change their tune. It seems a hard road for the f eliow that secures it through th civu court, for when he finishes the cu?e he begins over. If the government makes money on huuiing mail the cam paign is not amiss when it come. to raising revenue through tht postofike. lilt campaign tnunder of tht Democrats before thenomir4atitn is now effective material in tht hands of t:v Republicans an. they are not loathe to use i:. Labor leaders are hard work trying to deliver the g.oJc to the party of their choice, anc you don't want to forget the lac that they will want their rewarc when the victory has been won. It looks rather unreasonabk to charge the admin'str. to: with hard times, but we suppose it is nothing but fair since it claimed the credit for it wher. we did not experience such close times. Next Monday, October tht twelfth, is donation day at Watt hospital, and all that favor doin charity in a systemitac way when it will reach suffering humanity, will have an opportunity to put theory into practical operation. If it means the retirement oi a man from politics after he ha been elected tooffice, itisapity that the term of office lasts so long. If the term of office were shortei more n.en cojid be n tired an? we would hive less scrambling for the job, maybe. With so many good men cap able of filling prominen govern nnnt p'stijns with honor, i. seems a pity that the the govern ment does no'Jneed their services and cannot use them. However, if they are as capable as theii friends would have one believt they will exerience very little trouble in making good in tht business world and should have no trouble when it comes to de manding a g-wJ salary for theii services. A VISIT to Burlington, the first in tbout ten years, impresses- one of the rapidky of growth oJ the town. Burlington has and U going forward in many ways new houses tre Uing erected foi residence en I business and th stores are m izh hrgef ar.d bet ter, but the main thin? thai secrrn to occupy the attention o' Burlington j ut a: t'.i time i her fepk&de i 1 tblic tchcoU thai are the 1 ri le r her leading men Mr. J.

Tbe Campaign. The two candidates for gover nor are conducting the campaign in an orderly and dignified way. They are both gentlemen and nothing else was to be expected. The county candidates, as a rule, are good men, both parlies hav ing exercised unusual care in their selections. It is agreeable to record that the conservatives of both parties in Davidson coun ty passed strong resolutions against the prostitution of the suffrage in the county by the buying and selling of votes. In national politics the campaign is waxing warm andinteresting. The Presicent is taking an active part and, as usual, is showing amaz ing indiscretion. Mr. Taft, we nave always contended, is an abler and wiser man than Mr. Roosevelt. Mr. Bryan has gain ed immensely in the confidence of the American people by the course he is pursuing. He ia ag gressive and militant, but he has surprised the country by his pru dent and conservative speeches. One of the sensational features of the campaign war a letter pur porting to have been written by the late Grover Cleveland, declar ing in favor of Taft for Presi dent, and printed in the New York Times, one of the most re liable papers in the United States. It now turns out that the Times was imposed upon and that the whole stoiy is a fake, Mr. Cleve land having neither written it or signed it. C. N. Haskell, treas urer of the Democratic commit tee, having been touched by the Standard Oil Company, has re signed, and Herman Ridder, an honest German editor, has been appointed to succeed him. Cha: - ty and Children. Two New School Buildings. Lakewood school is nearing ompletion and will open next Monday for the beginning of the 5rst eight months term in the new high school building. Much interest has been manifested by the people of this district since the voting of the special tax and every patron in the district will do their best toward making it one of the best of the new schools. Bahama school will not open until Monday October 19th. This building and the equipment will cost about $1,000 and is modern in every respect. With the opening of these schools Durham county adds to her already fine equipment for the instruction of children two excellent buildings and the peo ple that have voted the special tax are proud of the fact. Kiss talker-Mr. IdIqM. Trinity church furnished the marriage altar Thursday mornin at 11 o'clock, gave from its con gregation one of its finest spirits and furnished a real social event to the city, when Miss Minnie May Walker became the bride of Mr. Kenneth Thigpen Knight, of Tarboro. Rev. G. T. Adams performed the ceremony. The church was decorated in pretty style for the occasion and when Miss Nan Good son struck the organ keys, the march to the. altar began. The ushers preceded the marriage party proper with Mr. C. V. Knight, of Albemarle; L. B. Knight, of Tarboro; W. G. Clark, of Tarboro, and Mr. J. B. Wal ker, the bride's brother, and were followed by Miss Isabelle Pinnix, the maid of honor. The bride followed with hir father, Mr. J. B. Walker, Sr., and the groom met thpm with his best man, Mr. B. F. Shelton, of Hob- good. During the ceremony, the organ gave symphonies, sweet and dim and the recessional march was played as the party marched out. Mri. W. II. Stone, Jr., of Greensboro sang "In Love Abiding," precedingthe entrance of the couple. Immediately following the ctrim w. th- couple drove to the station and took the train for an extende J tour. Gilbert and Kukcr Win. The suit of A. JP. Gilbert and W. - R. Kuker against J. H. Howard and Arthur Lyon for division of sale price of an auto matic packing machine which was sold some time ago to the American Tobacco company, was decided in the superior court yes terday and Messrs. Gilbert and Kuker win their suit. The amount claimed by Messrs. Gilbert and Kuker was $2,262 on account of an agreement between the four people that they should have 40 per cent of the sale price of the invention. The jury gave all that was claimed and the case will go the rounds of the su preme court before settlement is made. Raleigh, N. C, Oct. 7. -In Wake superior court today David Smith was convicted of man slaughter for killing Lum Wil liams, a deacon of a negro Bap tist church out in the county while engaged in a general fight and shooting at Gaston Dunn with whom he H was quarreling over the price of a drink of cider. Williams was not engaged in the row at all except in efforts to suppress it. He will be sentenced later in the term. In the midst of the political agi tation let us not forget, fellow citizens, those things which make for the material up-build-ing of North Carolina; and in furtherance of this interest we4 would again remind the reader of the good roads' congress to te held at Greensboro on the 13th and that at the same time there is to be a meeting of the North Caio'ina Good Roads Association, an organization of some years' existence and of repute. That the people of the State should have highways over which they can travel in comfort and with the minimum of wear and tear on teams and vehicles is of more practical consequence to them than who shall or shall not be president. Charlotte Observer. Rev. Sam J. Porter, of the Southern Baptist Foreign Mission Board, of Richmond, Va., was expected here this week to speak to the congregation of the Second Baptist church, but could not come on account of the illness of his boy. A Bold Step. To overcome the well-grounded and reasonable objections of the more Intel ligent to the use of secret, medicinal com pounds, Dr. R. V. Pierce, of Buffalo, N. V., somo time ago, decided to mako a bold departure from the usual course pursued by tbe makers of put-up medicines for do tnestlc use, and, so lias published broad cast and osnffly to the whole world, a full and ccuprtie list of all tbo Ingredients entering inK4ho com position of his widely celebrated fcpdlcKiea. Thus he has taken bis numeraci yutrons and patients jnto bis full lonfnce. Thus too he has re movedilvucdicincs from among secret nostrroTof doubtful merits, and made thembftemeuics of known Composition. Kv this boli-stprt Tr. Pierre has show Nut frls bol:Lster Ir.

One of these little books will be mailed free to aajr one tending add rs on pom al card or by letter, to Dr. K. V. Pierce, Buffalo. N. Y and requesting the same. From this little book It fill belearned that Dr. Tierce's med leiues contain no alcohol, narcotics, mineral agents or other poisonous or Injurious agents and that tbey are made from nailr. medici nal roots of great value: also that some of the most valuable Ingri-dlents contained In Dr. Tierce's Favorite Tn-scrlptlon for weak, nervous, over-worked, "run-down. nervous and debilitated women, were employed, long years ago, by the Indians for similar all menu affecting their squaws. In fact, one of the most valuable medicinal plants entering Into the composition of Dr. Pierce's Favorite Tre arription was known to the Indians as friuaw-Weed.

In the big game of base ball between the New York Giants and Chicago Club Thursday, about which much interest was manifested here, the latter were victorious by a score of 4 to 2. New York and Chicago Nationals were playing off a tie that had created a great deal of interest and the attendance was reported at two hundred and fifty thous and people. In the gun club shoot here this week, George L. Lyon came out in the lead, breaking 3GS pigeons out of a possible 400. INSISTED ON JUSTICE. Bom One Had te Sufftr te Satisfy trte Judge's Conscience.

Limping before the justice the next day, he indignantly demanded that the owner of the house bo punished. MYou shall haTe justice," laid the jude. The owner, being summoned, claimed that the accident was due to the poor woodwork sod that the carpenter, not he, was to blame. "That sound reasonable," ssid the judge. "Let the carpenter be called.
