of March Srd. 1IS7.
Salisbury, N.C., Sept: 12th, 1906.
We understand our frend Ab
Lingle, Esq., has returned to the
so-called democracy to help keep
up its reputation.
What do your objections to boss
rule amount to if you go to the
noils in November and vote for
his appointed candidates?
Every true citizen should make
it his business to see that the best
men obtainable should be given
the benefit of his vote in the com
ing election, and if in doing this
every man entitled to vote would
make it his business to do so,
much good would thus be accom
plished. Never mind about the
party,! vote for the man, and it
will not be long until no one save
men of the highest integrity and
loftiest statesmanship would be
come candidates. The little gut
ter snipes, grafters and sots who
dare to go where angels fear to
tread, would thus be compelled tq
stay back with the drawers of wa
ter and hewers of wood. Shame !
Shame ! ! That such things can
now be truthfully said of the
once proud democracy.
A NUMBER OF DEATHS.
At last poor old Atlas has been
relieved. Our pine-rooter states
men have taken a portion of the
responsibility off his shoulders.
A dispatch says that there are
500 stills in Wilks county, 33 11

The people should remember
that when the boss sends pup
pets to the legislature their bur

being made more tolerable.
We are still of the opinion that
the best thing that could happen
for the good of the Democratic
party and welfare of Rowan coun
ty is for said party to be defeated,
partially, if not entirely; al
though it would be a very diffi
cult matter to nnd better men
than some of the party's nomi

Poor old Mecklenburg, with her
proud record of road-building
without the issuing of bonds,
is now painting her face, filing
her teeth and making prepara

Recently, a mule at Lexington,
Ky., was driven up near an au
tomobile when he attacked it vi
ciously with his fore feet. We
have anxiously awaited an ex
planation of his muleship's con

have had nothing of a satisfac
tory nature. The only explana
tion that seems plausible is that
he was a union mule and was
afraid there were going to be more

In speaking of Mecklenburg's
first effort to issue bonds for pub
lic roads the Observer says :

We are under the impression
that Mecklenburg's excellent ex
ample and enlightened policy
had come about so far without
the issue of bonds. Whether or
not, there are still some old fash
ioned people who do not think
well of bonds, mortgages and

a snort wnne alter tne jury
took the Gentle case, a verdict of
not guilty was rendered. About
all the evidence there was against
Gentle was his statement to Mr.
Kenerlv and others as to what he
did on the night of the lynching.
The jury evidently believed that
Gentle was so full of bad booze
and hot air on the night in ques
tion; that he did not know what
he was talking about. Gentle
has the reputation among those
who know him, of being very fond
of bOasting of things he has doue,
which in reality he never did and
coulid not do if he tried. Under
the circumstances the verdict was
no doubt a wise one, and but few
people are disposed to criticize
it. There are some other indict
ments against Gentle bu3 it is
not; likely they wiil be. pushed.
Gentle was released Friday on
bond. He intimates that he
will; remain at home in future
and! endeavor to cultivate closer
intimacy with the soil on his
farm.
Gentle's bond was made by P.
