IDE OAHOMNA WATCHMAN. WM. H . 3T WAR r, Ed. and Tto, bllihd Tery Tuesday at 120 West Innei street. Entered as seeond-olaes matter Jan. 19th. 1908, at the post office at Salis bury, N. (J., under the act of Congress C Marsh 8rd, 1S?8. 8ALISF rjBY, N. C.JUNE 26, 1912. COURT HOUSE MATTER SET TLED. The editor ot The Watchman having been interested in the op -position to the construction of a new court housi because of the un necessary burden such a supposed necessary issue of bonds would have put upon the citizens of the coun ty, and owing to the fact that the three county commissioners who were overwhelmingly defeated on this proposition seem to be actua ted by spite, instead of heeding the peoples' wishes, a mass meet ing was called to be held in Salis bury, Saturday, Jr ne 29th . , for the purpose of ocnsideriug the matter a ;d taking steps to enforce the wish of the people. Having looked into the matter more care fully, obtained legal advice and tecured definite information con cerning the plans of the commis sioners, we are now almost ready to endoiae the steps taken by the commissioners and, we are sure should they have made these plans knon some time ago there would have probably been very little ob jeotion raised. Our only objec tion now is, that knowing the people are opposed to the -scheme nothing shou'd have been d;n Ev in the present plans, under the conditions and sentiment prevail ing should be submitted to th? people. This would be showing proper reipect for majority rule, Democratic teaching and confi dence ja the wisdom of the people.-. Undr the present arrangement some of the best attorneys at the Salisbury bar inform us that ab solutely nothing can be done and a mass meeting and further pro ceedings to the contrary are use less, as nc bonds are to be. issued and no increase in taxation ie con temp hted The scheme has been worked out on the following basis: Only 115 COO is to be borrowed at 5 per. ceat interest payable semi-annually. This amount is to cover the oost of the bci ding furniture for all offices, heating, plumbing, etc. and notes are tc be given and payable as follows: $2,000, July 1st, 1914 to 1917 in elusion. $8,000, 1918 to 1924 inclusion. $4,000, 1925 to 1929 inclusion. $5,000, 1930 tJ 1941 inclusion. $5,000, 1942. This ie much cheaper && bet ter than issuing bond. Just how the auditorium is to be furnished we did not leru it may be count ed in the above. t-abor.

RECORD OF A GREAT MEDICINE Doctors Could Not Help Mrs. Templeton Regained Health through Lydia E. Pinkham's Compound. Hooper, Nebraska. "I am very glad to tell how Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound has helped me. For five years I suffered from female troubles so I was scarcely able to do my work. I took doc tors' medicines and used local treatments but was not helped. I had such awful bearing down pains and my back was so weak I could hardly walk and could not ride. I often had to sit up nights to sleep and my friends thought I could not live long. At y request my husband got me a bottle' of Lydia E. Pinkham's Veg etable Compound and I commenced to take it. By .the time I had taken the seventh bottle my health had returned and I began doing my washing and was a Well woman. At one time for three weeks I did all the work for eighteen boarders with no signs of my old trouble return ing. Many have taken your medicine after seeing what it did for me. I would Dot take $1000 and be where I was. You have my permission to use my name if it will aid anyone." Mrs. Susie Tem pleton, Hooper, Nebraska. 1 ThePinkham record is a proud and peer less one. It is a record of constant vic tory over the obstinate ills of woman ilia tnat aeai out despair. It is an established fact that Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegeta ble Compound has re Ctoredhealth to thou sands of such suffer ing women. Why don't you try it if you needsucba medicine? PAYS TO BE HONEST. This is t!teJj?3rieBce of Claude Under-4v- .; wood. X One year ago at the Ju :e term of Federal court, Claude Uudrwood was convicted of illicit distilling and sentenced by the court to a year and a day in the Atlanta penitentiary, whereipon the de fendeot arose and told the. court that he would like to be obligiug, but he just cjuldu't see his way clear to begin that term right away. 'Judge," he said, "I would like to accomm date you, but I can't possibly go to the penitentiary right now. I hate got an old mother, some chi.dreu, a wife and a 'quare' sister at my house to support and my craps js just in such condition that I just can't afford to go to Alanta now." After saying further that he hated not to be accommodating and would come back at any othar time when his "oraps" were at tended to, the convicted man sat down. So struck with the peculiarity of the situation or maybe more by the earnestness of the fellow and the insight into a character which held some of the finest traits of real manhood, despite his viola tions of the law, Judge Boyd barkened to the word. of the prisoner, "I can't go to th pen now," and told him to c:me hack to begin his seutince at the Dj cember term of court. Last December ha returned, ac cording to the extraoidiuary agreement, and reported to tho lourt. He war told that he might spend until the followiug Juus with his family. So yesterday Underwood was again in atten dance npon the Uuited States ocurt, ready to serve his sentence But be was discharged by Jude Boyd aud allowed to go to his home in Randolph cousity, whero he will care for the aged mother, the ba'-'ies and the "eq iare" sis tr.
