J- and There can be no disguising the fact that the special interests have turned to Democracy as the most likely instrument to keep them in power at the national capital. They see no hope of a Republican reaction ary or standpatter winning next year, so widespread and deep-seated is the doctrine of progression within the Kepubhcan ranks. It is certain they would not sup port a progressive candidate upon the Republican ticket, and it is al most equally certain that the only chance the Republicanparty has to win anything in 1912 is to nominate progressive, ihe reactionary ele meat within the Republican party Has been thoroughly discredited ' The elections last fall proved the party would have not the slightest chance of carrying over a dozen states if it goes into the campaign of 1912 under the leadership of the standpatters of the party, and yet under no other leadership could the Republican party hope to command the support of the large financial and corporate interests. This makes it impossible in either alternative for the Interests to hope for any thicg from the Republican party. They would not identity themselves with a loser and they would be figainst tbe party upon the only plat. form and under the only leadership that must triDg party victory. It is an assured fact that the in terests are now secretly and actively at work endeavoring to mass them selves bebind the Democratic party. Their agento and cmis3;irus are at work eyevywhere. The bi-partisan machine, the cgent of special privilege, is stretched out in the land. The Tammany machine ia New York, the Sullivan-Lorimer machine in Illinois,the Cox machine in Ohio, the Penrose machine in Pennsylvania, the Taggart machine in Indiana, the bi-partisan machine in Wisconsin, Colorado, Montana, California are all the same. They draw their power and authority from Wall street and their seats in Con. gress. With all hopes of bolh har. mony and victory with the Republi can party out of the question, these interests will center, and are now centering their efforts to rehabilit ate Democracy and put it in power in 1912. William Jeinnngs Bryan's influence can be counted against the nomina tion of any reactionary Democrat for the office of President, and more over, hisiriluence will be against such a nominee if the Interests should perchance control the next Democratic national convention. Bryau and the standpatters of Demo cracy have come to the parting of the ways. It is generally believed among Democratic leaders throughout the country that Bryan has made plain his determination to oppose the nom ination of Governor Judson Harmon of Ohio, and that if Harmon is nom inated Bryan will openly oppose his election. Notwithstanding some of Harmon's personal friends who hap pened also to be intimate friends jf Colonel Bryan have sought ia every way to get Bryan to relax his opposi , tion to Harmon, it is well known that Bryan will not surrender his convictions in order to promote party success in 1912, ii party success is to be secured only by the Democrats making their peace with the inter, csts and winning through their sup port. This stand of Bryan's reflects the sentiment of fully eighty per cent, of the rank and file of the party which would rather see the Democratic party disintegrate and pass into history because of its loyalty to the people and its wel fare than see it victorious by reason of its surrender to Wall street inter eats. TheDemocatic masses have proven themselves to be independent. The Democratic masses differ in noway from the Republican masses bee it b; the common people are the same the nation over. Colonel Bryan has sounded the warning. As events move in rapid succession from now on we shall witness the crystaliza tion of the masses around principles, the realignment of the forces in American politics, and among the leaders m the new movement will be WilJiam Jennings Bryan, Woodrow Wilson, Robert Li Ower, Joseph W. Folk and John I. Shaiurtb. whoa great influence for good in our politi cal life is yet to be made manifest. ' .

The promoters say the organiza tion of the League has been under way for many months long before tne Republican League was born that it was their intention to launch it beiore the Harmon banquet at Baltimore in January last but it was then decided to wait and water the outcome of this gathering of "con servative" Democrats. Tnen the re cent "national achievement" ban. quet at Indianapolis in "celebration of victories for certain democratic reforms which the Democratic party have demanded" was announced and it was again deemed best to wait the results of that gathering.

In the center of Randolph County and almost in the center if the State of North Carolina, is the enterpris ing town ot Asneooro. ideated in the midst of a low range of moun. tains, between two rivers, the Deep River, on the east aud (the U wharrie, on the west, it ;enjoys many natur al advantages wnich result from good drainage. This town was founded one hun dred and seventeen years ago, and was named in honor of Samuel Ashe, a distinguished soldier and states man who lived in the days of the American Revolution. He after wards became governor of the State, In 1793 Jesse Henley conveyed to tbe Justices of Randolph County two acres of land on Abram's Cretk for public buildings, and on Jane the 12th, 1793, the first court was held in Asheooro in a small wooden building, located near where the present old court-house now stands. The former courts had been held at Brown's Cross Roads, near the present town of Randleman. The change of location was made in or der that the county seat might be nearer the center of the county, In lbUo che legislatute passed an act authorizing Randolph County to bund a new courthouse. A large two story frame Etructure was built, and in 1830 this house was sold td Alfed Mirth and Benjamin Elliott anu converted into a store, A small brick courthouse was lui;t instead in consequence or some ucrcct in tne wall this soon became unsafe aid was torn down, and in 1835 another bncK building was erected unuer uhe contract and supervision of John Worth. In 1S76 the north wing an I ot:i r r'roat were added. The first jail stood just below wLere Colonel McAlister's brick store how stands. Alter seiving its puipjse tor awhile, it was burned down by u colored man who got his matches fiow another pr'doner nam ed Alaieu. Ilia object w.s to burn the staple loose which kept him chained to the iloor and then escape, but in this he tails! to sujeeed. The jiii that stands now was built about me year lb51. in early limes there were only a few country stores. These were owned by Jjhn Mos and Jaob Elliott. "Thus this little country village incircled by hills of pine his progressed," says Mr. Addison Blair in ihe 1 History of Raudulph County, "Very slowly tor the lust fifty years witnout assuming the air of town life, untrfdcted by burglars, tramp1 or insurance agents." The courts were held once every year. About fifty-five years ago, while Ashebon was still . small village, a plank road extending from Salem to Fayette ville was constructed through it. On this road ran the stage coach which at tiat time was toe most rapid means of transit. When the stage coach was two or three miles Irom town the bugle would be blown to let the people who kept boarding honses know that it was coming in order that they might prepare tor passengers. As the ougle notes rang out with wild echoes among the hills annonncing the ap proach of the mail, all Asheooro was astir; then there was a tempoiary lull in all business; some stood in door ways and others gazed from the windows to see the passengers; all were anxious to hear tbe first break of news, and to catch a glimpse of that marvelous vehicle ot transpor tation. At the toll house which was situated where Dr. W. J. Moore now lived, the horses were exchang ed for fresh ones and the journey was continued. About iorty years ago tbe main industry of Asheboro was a cowbell shop, a buggy shop, a saddle shop, the stores of Dr. Worth aud E. A. Moftitt, four bar-rooms and a few housis. Ia July 1889 Iligh Point, Ashe boro and Southern R ill way was completed to this place. It is auuz ing io note the itilluei.ee this medi um of travel and transportation has eeited on the advancement of a town a century old' and containing only twenty-two houses, several shops a iu two stores. Sinc the cotnple t on of til. s roud tremendous strides kave titseu place despite an effort ou the part ot some o tneolier mOani Uuts to prevent it. The towu al most immediately begau to build about tbe new depot, and since that time a j rospeioua growtn has oeen continuous. The population hits lucnased to about twthty-dve hun dred, the census of 1900 to th: con trary notwithstanding. At present there are two , roller mills, the third one almost complet ed; .two chair factories, a lumber plant, wheelbarrow factory; Hume Building and Material Company; B iounury, ana a hosiery mill. The community iffjrds two prosperous bunks, and there is also a building aQd loan association. .There are al- Ie 1 8 ieaay aoout tnirty stores ana. sever- more being bunt. Asheboro has one of the finest I school buildinzs in the State, and its ochool is second to none. : The Do You Get Up With a Lame Back?

C Hammond Clerk Superior Court Think It Over Were a friend to tell you: "I have had my own carriag and had my fill I have went to three balls in one night, I have lighted my cigar with a ten.dollar bill, and all when money was tight," you would think he was boasting, possibly prevaricat ing. But if he should say that the carriage was a baby carriage, the three balls a pawn shop and the ten-dollar bill a board bill, jou would see the joke. When a farm paper advertise thiee full years for 35 cents, and it is a monlhly publication, they give you just 36 numbtrs in the whole three years' time. Again when they advertise, three full years for a dollar and it is a semi-monthly publication, you get 72 issues in the whole three years. In the first casa hi. teen is sues lees than The Progressive Farmer and Gazette gives its readers eery year; and in tbe latter case they give only 20 issues mere in the three years than we do in one year. And you know tbat a paper coming once uiontb. or even twice a month,' ca't he as interesting, or u's timely, or aa helpful a a parierooming every week. Don'tforget that The Pro gressive Farmer and G .zette is inhde in the South, by Southern men, for Southern tueu, and dealing with Southern conditions only. MADE FOR YOU!
