But there is graft in it, and the Socialistic papers sell advertising cheap. -o- Many of the citfeS of the country are just now fighting what they term the so cial evil. In a little while if the things keep on they will be fighting the Social istic evil. Most all the multi-millionaires are hav- mg trouDiei witn tneir wives.v jno one has explained just why it is but it is- and there is something in it worth think ing about. Every time the clock ticks you are that much nearer the grave. And yet men knowing this will persist in remaining in the Democratic party. What of their immortal souls? -o- In the old days if a , man had fifty thousand dollars he was considered wealthy. Now he isn't in it unless he has fifty millions. What will it be a thou sand years from' now,. The world is just commencing to cash its riches. ; O They are now about introducing the phonetic, style of spelling. Some of our Democratic j friends already have a bad spell, judged from the letters we get from 'em when the Yellow Jacket stings them on their funny bone. A quarrel over a mule resulted in two Georgia men killing each other in a pistol duel. The mule in the case did not lose its temper. Washington Post. It must KJtve been Swinnertons famous hybrid known as "Maud." .

That would ;seem to be better business. We don't hear so much of Tom Dix on's Clansman these -days. The box office receipts are nothiug like they, were and the actor-preacher k will soon be writ ing something new to intlame the South ern heart. A grafter, whether in the pul pit or on the curb; is always out for coin. j The Pope of Rome wants to .send six ty millions of dollars to this country for an investment, and Morgan and Ryan are fighting to see who gets the dough. The chancesare that no matter which one gets it, the Pope will conclude that commissions come high. , -o- The Republican party in N6rth Caro- I lina is like a seidiitz powder. One? faction is in the blue paper and the other in "the white. And w,hen they: mix they sizzle and frizzle and what we need, and need badly, isa new Moses to set the way. The sad ending of Jack and -Gill who went up the hill to get a pail of water was not a more frightful calamity than that which befell Judge -Parker who was the recent candidate for President on the Democratic ticket. -And yet .Parker has the nerve to come into the South and throw ja. harpoon into Billy Bryan the idol of the 'iirnmycraiks : South, who want to see wild cat money : sub-treasury notes and porcelain egg under confiding 5 Because J. B.'Foraker stood up in the Senate and gave the world His views, he was accused of representing the railroads. In other words whenever a" man is hon est, if he is not on the side of the grand stand bellowers there is always some one to cry out that he has been bought. . o . Richmond P. Hobson says tliat he can "see" that Japan is going to arm 'China for the purpose of fighting the United States. We thought Hobson resigned from the navy on account of eye troubles. If he can see what he claims to see, his eyes must be improving. 0 . A slab-sided and yellow bellied shad in West Virginia sends us word that our paper is making Democrat votes in that state. Yes, we are aware of that fact and Old John Brown made a few of the same .kind when he scared the liver out of the whole push. o Congress again voted many million for the pensioners and money spent that way is money spent well. The boys who 'rallied 'round the flag in the dark days did a good job and the Nation not only owes thenr money but' all its grat itude. ' fit fll " f IT1 t ' J . - . . . r , North Carolina, was called to Washington recentlv and while there made a deliverance-to the effect thajMr. Bryan would lead the united Democracy in 1898. Lead them where? Again to the slaughter house? But Mr. Daniel, like Balaam s ass, is perhaps guilty of seeing visions. Think of a government that can vote" thcee hundred million dollars to build a canal and think nothing of the appro priation. And yet this country was saved by the Republican party. It may be too latecin the day to talk about anything mat had treason, in it but it is a signifi cant fact that the party that saved the Union continues in power and was put in power, the last time by a digger major ity than ever.. h : ' ; - o- Those who are contending that De mocracy is on 'the upward tendency will no doubt be pained to learn of the sudden suspension of the Indianapolis Sentinel, for fifty 5rears the leading Democratic paper of Indiana. The Sentinel had preached Democratic doctrine for a long time, but each year its list of supporters grew less and less until there were so few Ithat the paper had to go out of business and shut up shop. It is a rather sad story, but -then it must not be expected that people are always going to believe that the Democracy is something worth conjuring with. -The time. is coming when it will be compelled to take its place along with those who once- con tended that "the Earth" am flat and the Sun do move." They tell of a resort in North Carolina known as the Land of the Sky. But the place where sky. is sold to the suckers is in. the North: All -a grafter up there needs do is to get a blue print of the blue sky and a half million suckers rush in and lay down their money. The blue sky artist is doing more business right now than eVer before. Job had lots of trouble, no doubk of that but he didn't have to contend with patent medicines or listen to a . Socialis tic spell-binder. Had such afflictionsx been piled upon his other woes we sus pect he wouldfinally have denied God. Even Bildad, the Shuhite couldn't have saved his bacon. o . Inspired, perhaps, .by. the Chicago Record-Herald's wild escapade in search of the North Pole,the Memphis News Scimitar has started out an 0 adventurous young reporter to search for the lost continent of Atlantis. Now who will daddy an expedition for the purpose of finding out where the Democratic party "at?" - - . ; Q : IS " And finally they found Old John Rock efeller hiding on his estate. When a man is weighed down-with a -billion of dollars 'that he gained dishonestly some folks-say stole and he must needs hide from officers of the law, the question is, : t. was me game wuim uic caiiuict it would; seem that old RagmufEn was hap pier than this 'modern Monte . Cristo r this bald headed old jackersnipes who has been proven to be guilty of arsn and murder. They talk of blood money and when Old John Rockefeller's case is con sidered humane lives have been sacrificed to give him the billion that he thinks he owns. The asylums and poor houses are also filled with victims of his terrible greed, and pretty soon the old fraud will die and then well then what about his billion. Some day .a bob-tailed hog will root and grunt over his grave-but what about the dough-faced old rascal when he goes trembling before the bar of God? A-man . must answer -aye, vengeance is mine sayeth the Lord! o- hisr us A very smart Alec, who signs name Stoneville Democrat, writes from Stoneville, North Carolina, and de clnres that the Yellow Tacket is no srood. S. D. says he has heard the Stoneville people speaking about the Y. J., and that he has" never heard one say anything good about it yet. . There's an old say ing that birds of a feather flock together and Stoneville Democrat has evidently been talking with his own class of folks. A man is judged by the company he keeps and a man's company may be judged by the way the man talks. W don't expect a Democrat to like the,. Yel low Jacket any more than we expect the Devil to. .love holy water.- If S. D. will quit iroiiing aruuiiu cuuuui i-tiiiuvciL so .much and will associate a little with Republican folks who know a good thing when they see it he may soon be able to sing a new song. In concluding his lit tle warble S. D. says: "If you don't like what I have said about-your paper, it will The different deerees of wealth which take the less ot at to do you. have always existed, and which, evident.
