St Mil Q R. DON LAWS, The Man Who Cut The Yellow Jacket and Made It Fit. We don't know what brand the Democrats use in-Harrodsburg, Ken tucky, but it must be a terrible arti cle. The latest report from that town is a two headed snake. JThe Republicans built ; every bridge that bore this country over from a wor.se to- a better condition. We want to see the color of the Democrat's pvf who will riismitft this nronnsition. -it- j Before denouncing a man for sorm rash act it is necessary these days t find out just what he acted the rascal for. Maybe it Was in the interest of some reform. " ; When all the liquor makers locate in Washington, then all the Dem poli ticians will want to run for congress, and once they get there, Congress will never break up. One fellow wants to know whom Cain married, and whether she was white or black. It makes no differ ence who she was, she didn't get much simply caught Cain, that's all. Business Democrats are afraid for the Democrats to get control of the national government; they realize that they haven't the gumption and business capacity to run it. The way to reach the North Pole is to build a railroad to it. When you got there, you could prove. You couJd take folks to it and prove it to em. When America gets possession of the ice plant at the Pole, wonder if 'they can't slide enough of it down this way to freeze out the ice trust in New. York? . We are anxious for the Dems to decide on what sort of a tariff they want. This thing of Bailey and Bryan pulling "tige's tail' over tariff is dis- tressing. You don't hear much about the tariff any more. It seems to have died an untimely death. What's the matter? Democrats are badly divid ed upon it, that's what. Wouldn't that have been dog eat dog, if Pres. Bryan and Sen. Bailey had met and debated the tariff ques tion? When leading Democrats go to scrapping each other, honest peo ple' can get a rest. - i i We wouldn't give two cents for a man's religion, if the man has to con trol it. The religion that can and does control the man, I is the only kind that can take him to the promis ed land. Since the death of Governor John son of Minnesota, most Democrats fear they will have to elect Mr. Bry an President again; ,This j will be a little inconsistent since they have said so much about "third termers." If they, keep on talking about run ning Cook for President, hanged if he won't get it into his head that the White House would just fit him; and he will feel mighty hard of it, if he is not allowed to try it on. If Joe Bailey wants to tackle some one who will "argue" with him till the cows come home at milking time, let him tackle a blooming Socialist. They are just "dying" to meet some-' body in debate. - The W. C. T. U. now propose to abolish the sale of all soft drinks In Georgia. Look out. Next it will be coffee, tea and tobacco. ; If they even allow the "crackers" to eat peanuts, it will be a wonder. i The state government - of Georgia is face to face with a deficit of nearly a million dollars, says a dispatch. Whew! We have been told all along by the Democrats that" they were the folks that knew howr to practice economy in government.1 Those places in the j.South where Democratic legislatures have insult ed the name of Jefferson by appoint ing Democratic magistrates in white Republican counties -so as to rob the people of local self-government, might very fittingly be i termed "buz zard's nest" Democratic rule. We are glad that President Taft favors a ship- subsidy for a merchant marine. The "Farmers' Union have a great friend Jn President Taft and in demanding? a subsidy the Union bids fair to have a warm champion in the person of the President. - ; The doctors of the town .of Greens boro, N. C. prescribed over: one hun dred gallons , of . booze for their sick patients last month. Isn't it a sname to have -doctors prescribing poison in this quantity for the suffering, peo ple? : J ,- -7r7:-7'7:;:. . The interests of the farmers and the manufacturers are mutual, but you might as well try to teach conic sections to a Kilkaney cat as to make a Democrat or a Socialist believe it. The : Anderson.- South Carolina Mail, says it believes that Cook and Peary are both Democrats. Well, be loved, they do act about like we've seen Dems in the past. This Cook and Peary quarrel is enough to make the bold Chinaman who declared he discovered the Norch Pole six thousand years ago, turn over in his grave. Last year the "holy" ones were in sisting that it would be a terrible thing to elect a Unitarian for Presi dent. Now they say it's awful to have this President delivering su speech from a Mormon temple. They have been naming some of their big balloons such names as Pommery, Cleveland, etc. If they, want a real ilyer, let them call one William Jennings Bryan and tack a "free raw material" tag to its basket. "Frigy" Conners, the fellow whom the Democrats were swearing by last year, recently turned down a tried and true Democrat as Mayor of Buf falo and had' a meat packer nominat ed in his place. o q O Since prohibition has been tried in Several Southern states, the Keely Institutes are doing a bigger .business than ever. No wonder. This blind tiger booze is enough to send a man his grave or a Keely one. 'Of all the things for which a young person should strive, a good charac ter stands easily at the head of the list. It may be hard to get on with out wealth and education, but "without a good character, no permanent and enduring success can be attained. The foot and baseball business is now in full blast. At the North Pole would be an ideal place for such games, so cool on a hot sun-shiny August day. Could play there winter and summer school or no school. If the Democrats should nominate Mr. Cook on the North Pole hunt, perhaps Teddy could run against him on the issue of an Arfican tiger hunt. Then the South would vote for Teddy, because he would represent the- South. Everybody is getting awful tired over this Cook and Peary ice plant. We are glad the daily papers have slid them off their first page. Wish Teddy was home. Dogged, if he didn't put a stop to all this envy between the Cookites and Pearysites. The man who can change his poli tics, has - a mighty puny set. But when a man's politics can change the man, like religion, it is strong enough to be trusted, or feared. One phase of this last kind is American in prin ciple, the other is hell-bent. And Taft has been President over one-half of a year and no sign of that fire and brimstone from heaven that was due if a "Unitarian" was put in the big arm chair. The "Holy Rol lers'.' have surely lost communication wii God. Bryan's plea that he .wants to elect a Democratic congress next ,year is a farce. If he really wanted to elect Democrats to Congress why dori'tne spend more time in trying to get his own state in shape instead of gala vanting about down in Texas where they are "h 1 bent" Democratic and need no rallying? There is a new disease known in some parts of North Carolina as pel legra and one of the leading Demo crats of the state declares the malady is cured by drinking corn whiskey. And only a little while ago the Dem ocrats all told us that whiskey was no good as a medicine. How Demo crats do' flip-flop. Baltimore has a woman running for the legislature who declares that there is a "crying need of the. legis lation she advocates." And there is doubtless a "crying need" of this wo man at home, unless she is one of those "vinegar bitters" women who never found a man who would marry her. ' An Iowa farmer, who, it is said, frequently went to town barefooted and bareheaded, just as a matter of style, recently purchased a $3,500 au-. tomobile. The old fellow now ought to take a day off and spin out to town and hear Col. William Jennings Bryan dialate on the iniquities of a "robber" tariff and how it keeps the poor farmer's nose to the grind-stone. A Democratic paper thinks if its party ever hopes to accomplish any thing that it had better pull itself to gether on the tariff and let the coun try know where it stands. The idea of the present Democratic party pull ing itself together would be just about like tieing two torn cats to gether and hanging them across a clothes line and expect them to be friends. ' ... - Henderson county, North Carolina, is a Republican county, but in order to thwart the will of the majority ; in order to put themselves in a posi tion to say "local self-government be d d" the Democratic legislature ap pointed a sufficient number of Demo cratic magistrates -tp iput the Hender son county & .Pjepnflcrkey rtn control; and that's thetpaty.hat-howlstniojal self-government :and that's the -patty that some folks say The Yellow Jacket is too hard on, 4 Don't croak. TLeave that to frogs In stagnant pools. A few croakers though are necessary in every com munity to - measure the 'rate ,of pro gress at which live men are : advanc ing. " ' p . j , ; According to some of the astrono mers Helley's comet will be at its best about next May, but a congres sional campaign will be on then and what will ,a little comet amount to with. a Democratic candidate for Con gress darting across every district in the United States? The cotton mills are kicking at the hierh nrice of cotton and threatening to shut down. The only way to rem edy this high price is to vote the Democrats in power in the. nation and no doubt it will be cheap enough to suit the mills. . Gen. Tillman, of South " Carolina, Gen. Bailey, of Texas, and would-be- Gen.' Aycock, of North Carolina, ought to enter 40 acres each of the North Pole, and go to raising tea, and put a high tariff on it to prevent compe tition with the free trade inhabitants of the North Star. Some hard-hearted people say they do not believe Gov. Glenn, of N. C, who goes everywhere preaching pro hibition, is, at heart, a prohibitionist. The balance of the human race, after praying over the matter, say that to save their lives, they can't say wheth er he is or not. A Democrat said the other day, that he expected yet to shake hands with Pres. Bryan. The poor fellow is yet joined to his idol. Let him alone. As sanguine as Bryan has been, he has learned that he will never be Presi dent, and will see to it that no other Democrat is, either.. Two new histories are being writ ten. One is Teddy's tiger hunt in Africa. The other is Cook and Peary's pole hunt up in the Lord only knows where. Teddy's will be live, true and hot stuff. The other will be dead, doleful and damned stuff. Ida Tarbell, tariff reform writer, wants to know what the PayneAlr drich tariff bill did for the 20,000,000 mothers who are bringing up their children on a few hundred dollars a year. It simply provides the way for getting the money. Ida, that's all. Ask us something harder. Booker Washington, at Harvard University the other day, declared there were three thousand five hun dred negro doctors in the United States and more were needed. By all means let him have the doctors; may be in this way the race problem can be solved. A copy of The Yellow Jacket slip ped under the shirt of a moss-back Democrat every, two weeks will either regenerate him in a year's time or it will make the fellow so blooming mad that he will forget to go to the election. Try it. Make a note of the fact that The Yellow Jacket belongs to no clique or faction. We preach old-fashioned Abe Lincoln Republicanism straight from the shoulder. We incidentally punch the Donkey a few punches when it needs it; and it most "engen erally" needs it. A native of Ireland dropped into our shop the other day and asked for some sample copies pf The Yellow Jacket. He had traveled over the greater part of the United States, he said, and he was free to express his opinion of Socialism as one of the most abominable doctrines ever pro mulgated in this country. . Say, you fellow who is always cus sing out the Republican party on the ground that it never selects important government officials from the South ern states, make a note again. Presi dent Taft has selected Lee McClung of Tennessee, as treasurer of the United States. Too poor to take The Y. J.? Well, that is a distressful condition. Buy a hen, feed her crumbs and waste from the kitchen and she will lay eggs to pay for a year's subscription-; then work her up into pot pie and she will pay first cost; so the paper will be clear profit. Repeat this pro cess year after year, meanwhile learn wisdom and cease to be poor. The best way to keep the boys at home is to make it an object for them not to go out to seek amusements; for these they will have. Every farm home ought to be made a very heaven on earth to ; its inmates. Not alone the farm home either, but all the houses in the land. Learn each child's nature, and then work some home charm to keep him in your cir cle. . Since we come to think of it, Billy Bryan ought to get the North Pole, and plant it on his Texas farm to stack his "cain" around. For judg ing the future by the past, that's the only crop he will be able to row. In fact, that's the only crop he knows anything about cultivating. . He can grow the stalk to perfection, but it does not fruit well. It may do better in Texas couldn't -do worse. ? If you are a kicker and see the shadows of failure in, everything that is proposed to help the town, -for heaven's sake go into some secluded canyon and kick yo'ur own shadow on the clay-bank, and give the men who are .warkingv to ; buihi up the .town a chanppj ; Oner long-f aced, hollo:reyed, whiniia, capin chronic kicker; can do f moxe- to keep r aayusiRess and capital from a town than - all the drouths, fthort cf ona.. rhimvh hnra 7 rv.

' Some people seem anxious to know whether Judas 1 fell from grace when he betrayed Christ. Ke sold Christ for money. If in- doing that he fell from grace, he did better then than people do now when they, sell Christ for money. When Judas saw what ho did, he went and hanged his abomina ble self. He had too much self-respect to face the world with such a blot on him. To keep himself un spotted from the world, he simply got out of it. . The world is full of Ju dases. They are in the church. Some say Christ, or the Holy Spirit, colled them to preach. They are betraying Christ and sellhig Him for a mice, by going and compromising Chrisi's doctrines with the world. They do this for- salaries and popularity. In nearly every twelve, some think, there is now one such devii. Judas was more excusable; he did not have the Holy Spirit, and Christ had not then proved - His divinity by rising from the dead.
