The following letter w* received
Wednesday from Mr. J. H. Helleway:
Tn Fiimo ma,
LoelBburg. N. C,
Dear Mr. Editor:
While I de net believe is rub
blag it ia when yea have the other fel
lows goat, I cannot forego the pleasure
of aayitiij like the old lady "I told
/on so."
One ot the Kitchin followers in Louis
burg, who also professes to he a follow
er and teacher of the lowly nazariae
told me yesterday say predictions in the
Franklin Timks on the ultimate result
of the Senatorial campaign reminded
him of a statement ence made by a
minister who visited Aehevllle, N. C.
He made the very broad sweeping
statement that Asheville was the wick
edest city in the world and when he
was call' d on to prove his statement or
show what reaton he had for making it
they foand lie had never been anywhere
te amount to Anything. Hy good Kitch
in friend said my dogmatic manner of
making my political pragaotications re
minded him of the minister, I apoke as
an oracl*.
Please 1st me ask my friend If it ia
possible for any man to state a fact and
ha dogmatic.
The writer challengea any reader of
the Tmse to ahew an errer in his fore
salt, but on the ether hand every eteim
was mors than realised and it certainly
is the greatest pleaaore ef my |lfa to
aaaonnce the elimination of the most
monumental specimen of egotistical,
vituperative, negativenaw; from politi
cal power that North Caroliaahas ever
knows.
Never agala will N.rth Carolina set
another sueh campaign aa the one jnst
eloseJ, all other candidates - will know
better.
I AM H. Hollowat. )

Mr. aad Mrs. S. W. Young on Sanday
morning Oct. 27, and saw St to take
away their beloved daughter, Agatha
Estelle, which they so dearly loved and
all who knew her. She had bore a lot
of suffering sor some time, but for the
lsst few days she grew worse. (She was
a bright little child, her age was 18
months and two weeks.
The family haa the sympathy of our
town. For we know 'tis sad to see the
little one close its bright shining eyes
to shina on earth no more, but in heav
en among the angels where it will test
forerer, without any sorrow.
A preeioes one from us has gone, a
voice we loved ia still ; a place is vacant
in our home, which never can bo tilled.
God in his wisdom has recalled, tke
booa her love had given, and though the
body slumbers here, the soul is safe in
heaven.
God doee all things well, for those
that lore him.
So weep not dear aether, but try by
tho power of God to metst yonr sweet
oao again. There is not words to ex

We all know not what hour, God may
call. For yonr little one ia conataatly
beckoning yon to come. May God be
