C., nnder Act of March 3, 179. HOSPECTS OF DEMOCRATIC -VICTORY. F.rilthnore Sun. ; In an address at Elizabeth, N. J, on Tuesday Dr. Woodrow Wilson, I resident of Princeton Uolveraity, s- poke hopefully almost confidently, In lecU of the probability that the people will soon transfer the control of the national government from- the It?publican party to the Democratic party. Everything depends, of course, upon the wisdom which the Demo cratic party displaya-7-upon the men aad the measare9 with which it goes before the country. And therefore, as Dr. Wilson well says, the Demo cratic program should be one of pop ular politics, of common counsel, of roppnsible leadership. It used to be said that the Demo cratic party could always be relied upon to blunder when its prospects were most encouraging, and thus, by playing into the hands of its oppo nent, make its defeat inevitable. But the lines upon which the Democratic campaign can be conducted with rea sonable prospects of success in the congressional elections this year and in the presidential election in 1912 have been so clearly defined by the ieople themselves that a blunder now would be worse than crime. It would be inexcusable folly and Btu pidity, in the political sense, tor the Democratic party to give its oppo nents any issue by which they could . divert the attention of the voters from the tariff record of the Taft ad ministration and from the open asso eiatjon of the Republican party with the trusts. It is upon the lines which the peo ple themselves have laid down that the Democratic party- ought to ask for restoration to power. In Massa chusetts a Republican district with a majority of 14,000 has recently elect ed a Democrat to Congress, thus de monstrating that there is a revolt in the East against an oppressive tariff, against- monopoly and against all other Republican policies which are hetd responsible for the advance l in the cost of living. There is dlssatia faction every where with the extrava gance of Republican administration, with its surrender to privileged inter- v ests, with its willingness to allow the people to be plundered by predatory monopolies. It is on these issues that the people are determined and eager to make the fight against the Repub lican party. No other issue is need ed. -The Democratic party must fight on these lines, if it is to make war effectively . upon the Republican . party. : , ).- ' .v;:. Therefore, common counsel and re sponsible leadership which President Wilson declares to be essential to Democratic success ought to be ia ev ery State to save the Democracy from the crass folly of giving the Republi can party any issue which it may use to-its advantage at a time when it is in a desperate plight. Oscar Williams, an OparattT at Kob- erdel Mill Na. 2, at Rocktaa:hain Killed by Pearl Bralaa, a Meftli " at the Same Place. Rockingham, April 3. This morn ing about 11:30 at Roberdel, No. 2, a mill village near here, Pearl Bruton shot and killed Oscar Williams after beating him terribly with a chair. WMiams lived but a few minutes af ter being shot. ' Bruton keeps a store on the main street of the village. On Saturday night an altercation occurred -between him and B. S. Harris, a resi dent of the place, and Bruton used a chair on Harris' in return for some foul names Ilarris called him. Both Harris and Williams were drinking Saturday night. -; It seems - that , Bruton I has been bothered with requests to go to hi Btore on Sundayand sell drinks. This morning. Oscar Williams came to Bruton's house, which is -- right near the store. When Bruton came to the door he said, "You come, here to raise a fuss with me at my house." - , DETAIL8 OF TRAGEDY. "bhTno," said Williams." "I just want to see you." Bruton replied: "G dd m you, I'll put your light out," and grab bing a heavy chair broke'it in pieces over his body. Williams staggered into the street to get out of the way bruton ran into the house, and came out in a mo ment with a Winchester rifle. Wil liams, seeing the gun, begged him not to shoot and . turned and starUd to run. Bruton then fired two or threa time and Williams fell across the street, pierced by two bullets. One en tered his back and came out through his chest; the other entered near the hip and went through and lodged in the abdomen. The first bullet was easily taken out but the ather was not removed. Williams was dead in about five minutes after being shot. His body was not removed until af ter the covoner'5 inquest, which was held at 2 o'clock. BRUTON AKRKSTED. . NOW IS THE TIME FOR HARD WORK. Sheriff Hinson and Deputy Falmer at once arretted Bruton and placed him in jail. He made no attempt to escape, and quietly allowed the officers to take him. He is about 28 years of age and has a young wire and several children. Oscar Williams came to Roberdel from Moore county ewo or three years ago and was employed in' the. mill 'as operative. He was 31 years of age and ' had : a' wife and two children, .the youngest just one week old. The body will be takea to his old home in Moore county for burial.

Charlotte Chronicle. Shortly after prohibition went Into effect in thia State, summer visitors at Blowing Rock were told that If they would drive to a certain cabin, a few mi lea from town and make a noise with a quarter on a shelf at the window, they, "could get it." And do you know, the operators of tbiB mountain joint kept it going for six weeks, before they were "pulled?" The stuff they handed out was liquid dynamite, and to this day a Greens boro man keeps a half pint flask of it in his home as a curio. But what we started out to relate, is that the blind tiger takea on more polish, a silkier glossiness, as it were, as he generally Invades civilization. In Wilming ton, a day: or two ago, a near-beer mxn named Winner, and who prov ed to be a winner, was hauled up be fore the recorder on a charge of blind tiger manipulation. It was alleged , by a witness that somewhere in Win ner's joint ia an innocent, looking clos et and In this closet is a contrivance that i9 a boon to the thirsty. When one walks into the closet something - says "click" and .out comes a "pan nel" on which is marked 25 cents." After receiving the amount named there Is another "click" and the pan nel glides back somewhere, the thirs ty know not where. Presently there Us another "click" out comes a half- pint of the stuff. The witness, how- ever, does not seem to have made out good case, for the recorder thought his evidence would not d by a furlong, and discharged the de fendant. In our own mind we have no doubt about the fact that the click ing sound in Winner's establishment meant someining. ine uger seems to ba always up to new trick?, but catching him at itf is the rub.

You have already made up your mind you will buy a binder; lots of you have made up your mind to buy a McCormick binder. We'have already secured orders for five binders from prominent farmers over the county. Why not let us have yours? We have al ready booked a car of McCormick goods to be shipped f April 15th; all the goods we can get into this car will be shipped to us with no freight to pay. Last year we shipped eight binders from Charlotte, seven by freight and one by. express. The seven by freight cost us $4.00 each charges; the one by express cost $8.00 chages. We could have saved the farmers who bought these eight all the freight and express money that went'to enrich the - the railroad-company and express company if they had given us their orders in time lime to let them come out in our cr load, of mowers and rakes. Binders are sold - on such close margins that it does not pay us to run the risk of carrying ovcral $100 worth of these goods from season to season. The writer was in the general office of the Interna tional Harvester Company, at Charlotte, on the 25th. They report that they have already sold twice rs many machines this year up to date against the same date last year.

Four years ago, we sold as high as 500 in a single season; now we da not sell one-tenth of this number. Why is this?

That this conclusion is erroneous, and that . Hobson's Eczema Ointment will effect a cure is shown by the following unsolicited testimonial of Mr. Venable Wilson, who for many years was a citizen of AVades boro. Mr. Wilson saysr "This is to certify that for nine years I suffered with eczema, and during that time tried numerous so called specfics for it, but without effect. But after a few applications of Hobson's Eczema Ointment I was completely cured. "V. WILSON. "Thomasville, N. C. Feb. 22. 1910." We sell Hobson's Eczema Ointment under an absolute guarantee.
