The Carolina V an Wm. H. STEWART, Editor and Owner Published Every Wednesday, 129 West Innes Street SUBSCRIPTION PRICE i Watchman, t year, $.75 Record, 1 year, ...... .75 The Progressive Farmer, 1 year, 1.00 All 3 for a year each, only $1.50 Entered as second-class matter January 19th, 1905, at the post office at Salisbury, N. X, under the act ol Congress of March Srd, 1879. Salisbury, N. C, May 19, '15. The State Supreme Court has passed on Bbveral cases brought to test the oneqaait liquor law pass ed by the last legislature aud held it to be constitutional. Old John dies slowly but surely. One reason the politicians do not object to women voting is because where it has been tried there has been no appreciable changes made. They find it just as easy, if not a little more so, to work tricks on the women as the men; Considerable complaint is heard in regard to the speeding cf au tomobiles and mortoroyoles on the streets of Salisbury and on the avenne between Salisbury and Spencer. It is a wonder there are not many accidents resulting from this practice as few pay any attention to the ipeed regulations. Our pressman went to sleep this morning and failed to get enough ink on a portion of the paper this week and it was dis covered too lste to reprint. We regrt this and hope such au oc curnoe will not oocur again. When our new press is installed we will be able to give a much better service. The great war in Enrpe will no doubt awaken this ccuutry to its obligations to itsblf, if it is' to exist There are enemies withiu aud with' ut that need to be given some tfc tifciou. Good seed and, gord iu ten lions do not hriupr forth a very desirable harvest. Culti vation and constat t attention is nece9ary. We have left our gates open oetil our fields are abouLt full i fowls from vrv quarter of the g'o'le. Tbey have come to feed off of us and will assist the enemy, evideaced by recent occurences, Despoil us whei. the opportunity affords, vet we continue in our stupidity aud prodigality, being pleased to caU it ''enterprise", "prosperity" and "boosting," It is even now contemplated that an organization ahould be ff toted in this State to induoe more of these fowl to migrate to our beautiful, peaceful and happy hills and valleysto crowd out our native God-fearing, patriotio and virtuous population and to take millions of out good dollars from our pockets and from the pockets of posterity to be smt to the old world for the comfort, upbuilding and maintenance of their own. Instead of standing guard at our gates and proteotingourselves we permit the dollar chasers to lead the enemy in to the heart of the land, furnish him with all the necessary implements of a com mercial war and bid him do his will. When will we learn that happiness, oontentnent and safety is worth more, more lastiug and of more value than dollars and cents? Why oousume our raw material quiokly.when it can be so muoh more easily digested when consumed by our own in a natural aud orderly way? Altru ism, like charity, should begin at home. The Watchman does not be lieve an officer elected by the people has any business with plans. He is purely to the servant of the people and it is up to him to merely ao tneir oidding and observe strictly the requirements of his office. The people are get ting sore on bossism hereabouts. There is too muoh of it. We understand that a bolter from the Democratic party at the last election is a candidate for city tax collector, and, we under stand that there is no hope of his election without the mayor-elect, W. H. Woodson, chairman of the County Democratic Executive Committee, so desires. The question is, What is the chairman of the party going to do about it? Others may see it different, but from our view point by the lack of sufficient appropriations and fore light in regard to an adequate navy, Congress has permitted the American people to be found de fenseless in the hour of need President Wilson is now playing the baby aot to keep us from te ing slapped off the earth, which of course is the only thing he can do at present Now that the old Confederate soldiers are getting scarce, it has been suggested that their wives also be invited to partake of the annual dinner and memorial .ex ercises. It is said that there was more than enough food supplied last Friday and to have the good womea to join with the veterans would cause no additional burden and yet cause more of the old veterans to attend. It is the veriest rot for any posted American to intimate that the United States has a navy that would in any way justify this nation's entering into a con flict with any Earopean power of consequence. Our little fifteen or twenty ships may be ready alright enough, but ready for what? Every important nation knows all that is necessary con cerning our navy and this bun combe about being "ready" only creates a smile.

Wheat and oats are looking much better since the recent good rains, but there is muob talk of planting the ootton over where the land is tight. ms a '- ine apple crop win be very small this year. We had a fine crop of blooms, but at least 90 per cent did not materialize; B. B, Peeler is renovating his threshing machine, preparatory for threshing again after harvest. B. L, Brown, an old oripled sol dier was very much surprised on Friday evening to receive a full meal of the old soldiers' dinner from Salisbury He was unable to get there himself, but somebody thought of him and Alexander Peeler brought it, saying he had a parcel post psokage. It was reoeiv ed and opened with pleasure, it contained ham, ham-salmon, beef, cheese, pickels, au assortment of fine cakes, pie, bread, meat, etc It was so far better than the ra tions they used to have in the army when we did our own cook ing, he had to conclude that these rationns were too nioe and too well prepared to be the production of men alone, he is sure the ladies had a prominent part in the pre paration of them. He wishes to express his hearty thanks to the ladies, to those who thought of sending him some and to the man who brought it. We understated that the ranks of the old soldiers are growing thin. A few more j . i in . , years sua tney win not neea any more dinners here, but I hope they will be able to feast on better things. Nbxt week the girls will be home from the Mt. Pleasant Seminary. A very sad thing occurred at Mt. Pleasant last week. A young man had been to Concord where he got some boose (probably mixed with poison) he came home, and that night while trying to vomit, fell over the banisters and died. Knowing that the good book says it is not good for man to be alone, T. J. Q. Trexler, with a re spectable pardoner by the name of Mrs. B, M. Misenheimer, call ed at the home of Bev. B. L Brown, on ih$moruing of the 16th inttant and said thy bad a little work for him to do. They were invited in and soon they were made man and wife and went on their way a happy oouple. Our best wishes go with them for a long and happy life. R . L Brown and wife are visit ing in Salisbur this weak at tha FAITH. May 15. D. W. Moose of Mount Pleasant, and Miss Cora Pleas of Cresoent were quietly married at the Lutheran paison age on the night of the 13 b by Bev. O. P. Fisher, who is tbe brother in-law of tbe bride. Mr. Moose it a native of Cabarrus and a graduate of Newberry College, S. O. For tbe past ten years he has been engaged in school work in different places in the State and is a son of Giles Moose and a brother of Bev. J B. Moose. The bride, Mrs. Moose is a graduate of Crescent Academy and business college. She has been a teacher in the sohools of Bowan County for the past five years. The bride is beautiful and popular among all of her acquaintances. Pro fessor Moose and his wife have both taught sohool at Faith and the whole town joins in congrat ulations and best wishes. John D, A. Fisher has just brought a large automobile and bought it out home today . Sev eral others expect to buy soon. J. T, Wyatt received an order today for turee pair of mill stoneB and a granite window sill nine feet long. B. O. Suddah of China Grove, instructor in agriculture of the Bowan Farm Life Sohool, is out on his rounds illustrating live stock with the use of a baloptioon projecting apparatus. He was the guest of Venus on Friday and at night he made a ieoture on live stock, to a large crowd at the pub Ho school house in Faith. From Tuesday to Friday nignt he will be in Morgan Township. It don't oost anything to hear his lectures and see the illustrations. , There is going to be a big time in Faith the fourth of July. The program whioh is now being got ten up will be announced a little later. Luther Eflrd of near Albemarle, who is attending the meeting of the North Carolina Synod is spending part of, the wek with Bev. O. P . Fisher. The members of the Reformed Church gave their pastor a big surprise one day thiB week in the way of ao old time pounding. They assembled at his home in great numbers, spread a large dinner and everybody present was invited. After a blessing by one of the ministers present all helped themselves. After dinner they brought forth many good things to fill his pantry which consisted of oanned goods of all kinds, eggs, butter, flour and many other things. Rev, Paul Barringer and Rev. Peeler were present and made adresses. Rev. Welker re plied by thanking all for re membering them. Mr. and Mrs. Welker were also presented with a purse tilled witn money. There were members present from all three of the ohurohes of the Faith oharge. This is the first pounding our new pastor has received since coming to North Carolina and we guess he will not have any objec tions to this kind of noundinirs . A most pleasant time was had by all pTesent L. A. Barger has ripe apples. Who can beat that? Mrs. Maggie MoCombs is going to sell her large two-story resi dence in Faith, which as a large lot to it. Little Miss Lena Brown is spending this week with her grandparents, Mr. and Mrs. James, Ritchie. Mrs, John A. M. Brown and Mrs. O. M. Brown of. Lowerstone, are visiting at Mrs. C M. Brown's sister, Mrs. J, I. Barger. Mrs. C. M. Brown has her little twin girls along, Anna Martha Jane and Annie Lee Lucretia, and Venus took their piotures. Vbncs. Splendid Medicine I Suffered for Several Yean , Peruna Restored My Health Mrs. Elizabeth Reutlefi No. 50S Twelfth St, N. "W Washington, D. C, writes: "I am pleased to endorse Peruna as-a splen did medicine for catarrh and stom ach trouble, from' which I suffered for several years.

President Wilaou today reviewed the Atlan tic fleet iu the Hudson Rive? and a luncheon tendered to him on shore. by the city of N w York told a distinguished gathering what the oountry and its navy stood for. The great battleships that Jay in tne river, he said, were "Engines to promote tbe interests of humanity. " "Tvh e ' inspiring thing about A erica," the. President said, "Is that bEc asks nothing for herself except what she has a right to ask for humanity itself. We want no Nation's property; we wish to stand selfishly in the way of the development oc no JNation. xxxx It ii.not pretentionon our part to say that we are privileged to stand for what ever Nation would wish to stand for and speaking for those things which all humanity must desire." The spirit which brooded over the river today, said the President was "Just a solemn evidence that the foroe of America is the force of moral prinoiple, that there is not anything else she loves and that there is riot anything else for whioh ebe will contend." THE MEN AOS. The Menaoe is doing the nation the greatest possible seryioe in the greatest battle for principle that has ever confronted mankind. It is a question of truth and right eousness verses error, superstiticf aid deception. On the reiu't on this battle depends the safety of our republic, charchfs and homes, and, whether yon believe the as sertion or not, the situation de mands the honest and intelligent consideration of every one. If tht statements made in the Menace are false and contrary to history Protestants ought to know it, and, if they are true. Romanists ought tD know it. If ydn are being made a tool of by some ectasias tio, read; if you are honest and are seeking light, read ; if you are a fool and can't help it, read; read The Menace.
