X A bluelcroBB mark on the up ner right hand corner of the first naste of this paper, 'immedi . . . . ately following the -ubBoriber name,.is tojiotify such Bobscribef that his subscription has. expired and that he is cordially invited to renew at-nnce. The special re duced price at which we are now offering the paper lasts no longer than June 20th, and is for cash in advance only. After this -time the price will be $1.00, strictly. If, after being thus notified, youl fail to receive The Watchman, you will have only yourself to blame. 1 A man who will sell his vote, or influence, in a great moral issue like the present campaign, is cer tainly made out of very common clay. There.is a'law on the statute looks' against vote buying and sell ing and the man caughtat it can bb indictedand severely dealt with. If a fellow comes around and tries to bargain with you watch him. It has been only a week, since Jas. H. McKenzie annonncedbis candidacy for the office 6i sheriff of Rowan county, ad.thereports from all sections of the county seem to indicate that he will be nominated by a good majority, Mr. McKenzie has served as deputy -sheriff and made a most excellent official, painstaking, careful, prompt, and study, and cour teous to all. the very Kind of a man for such an important office. True men, men of convictions, men who are actuated by princi ple, men who can see clearly, and men who give heed to - their consciences, are not given to , following one leader to-day and another to-morrow, nor does vfce : follow the leader in this fight that he.dehounoed in the last, especially is; this true when that leader has changed in no essentials -whatever, unless it has been in the way of from bad to worse. Don't be a turn coat, but help on 26th of May, to rid the country of this dominating whiskey influence." - J. . j The announcement of W. Law son Kluttzior the office'of county commissioner appears in tbispaper. Mr. Kluttz has served the people of Rowan in this capacity before and has made an enviable record. He has always stood for the wel fare and advancement of the peo ple. He has guarded the public tre asury with fidelity and with profit tq the county. He opposed need less expenses, and promoted the county's interests at all times and has always attended to the duties of his office promptly and care fully He is the kind of a man needed. Men often do things against their will. Sometimes they are right and sometimes they . are wrong. As the will the domi nant power; conscience is often smuthered and better judgment ignord. Hence, it is the will power and prejudice of man. that so often keeps him from doing the best thing possible for himself and his fellows. Sometimes a man's conscience will not down, the will submits and walk's forth boldly to do, regardless of circum stances, that which he believes to , be right, thus performing a con scientious duty To know what is one's conscientious duty the ear and heart- must not only be open and ready to admit the truth but they should seek it. Those who re fuse to. read temperance literature fft hear temperance speeches seem tofbe afraid of their conscience. .-Afraid they will see the'error of their way and 'be convinced against their will. o Plenty of Trouble is caused of stagnation of the liver and bowels. To get rid of it and headache ttndbilliousness and the poison that brings jaundice, take Dr. King's New Life Pills, the reliable purifiers that do the work without grinding or griping. 25o at all drug stores.

There i&jio half-way ground in this matter. Right is right, and mankind has no right eousness, no morality . to virtue, no honor, no truthfulness and no soberness to spare. How many are they who are carrying these things to. the barroom to be wash ed down-with unbeneficialj unnec essary and destroying liquor? The question of a man taking a dnnkt116" 0rgan Chnrch e here visit of the old-time, unadulterated beverage, and the question of li censing the manufacture and sale of J;he miserable death-dealing stuff, now on the market, are en tirely different matters.' It may be possible for a man to do the former with, a blameless con science, but to vote for the per-4 petuation of the present methods of manufacture, adulteration, sale and oommon, mischievous use, by old and young, is undoubtedly a great evil, before both XJod and man. Thajnan who votes for the sale and manufacture of whiskey, the kind of whiskey now on the market, "deliberately takes upon himself his pro rata of the evil produced by its use. He takes his stand by the-murderer and says, "Kill, I and the law are with you." He stands by the thief and the man who forces his wife and children to wear rags and go hun gry to appease his appetite and Bays, "Success to your hellish work, I and the law are with you. Isn't this true? Don't you become a partner when you advocate its use and authorize its sale by your vote7 ion do. FTobably not intentionally, but the results are materially theljame. V BRASSY RIDGE.

And this is what we saw and heard : In part there were 53 persons present; all told, 20 voters, about half or a little over were prohibitionists, and 83Jadies and children. The exercises con sisted of temperance songs ; pray er by J. C, Peeler, in which the blessings of a 'Divine Providence was asked in behalf of the workers of both sides. After which Bis marck Capps was introduced by J. C. Peeler,- who made a fine tem perance lecture, saying in part that the way and the only way toJ keep from "being a drunkard was not to drink a drop of liquor, Then after another song P. S. Carlton was introduced by A. J. Brown. Mr. Carlton arose and asked the ohoir to come to the other side of the house, this being done, now then, said he, the crowd looks much larger. Then he pro ceeded with his lecture, saying, among other things, that -he would rather see five hundred blind tigers turned loose in North Carolina than one that could see, and, that he was here to -make votes?" Tbe best- of order and closest attention prevailed, from first to last, that we ever aaw any where. In-spite of that our feel ings were hurt the next day when it came to ears that one of the leaders -of that meeting accused some Salisbury friends of misbe having, and, saying that he was tempted to go back there and slap them in the mouth. Now we don't know this to be a fact. It is only a hearsay." We hope that it ia nQt true, neverthe less we can put it back where we got it.
