This issue of the News ends its work in the campaign, and
its final advice to voters is: Remember the past history of th®
county. When the democratic party succeeded in wresting
the county government from the republicans, county orders
were almost worthless. No merchant would take them at
face value in payment for goods, and they were not receiva
ble for taxes. How is It now? Are they not as good as gold
at every store in town, and receivable same as cash at the
bank or elsewhere? Has the republican party ever had con
trol of the county treasury without leaving’the county ‘‘in a
hole’’ financially? What assurance have we that the party
now is any better or more honest than it was ten years ago?
If these are facts, and history proves that they are facts, why
should you give control to a party which has proven itself un
worthy and incompetent?
The republican party in this county seeks to win the elec
tion b}^ fraud. It has printed the democratic county ticket
with one or more of its own candidates interpolated, hoping
to defraud some illiterate democrats into voting for republi
can nominees. This may be legitimate politics for an inde
pendent candidate who seeks his support from all parties, but
for an old established party such methods are nothing but
fraud. Is a party which will resort to fraud to get office, safe
to trust with the affairs of an honest people?
There is but one safe road for voters in this election: Get
your tickets from the registrar in each precinct, and remem
ber the history of the county when you drop them.in the bal
lot box. .
Itjs an easy matter for a candidate to bring charges against
the party in power which would require much time to prove
false. The one question that interests voters is: Would those
who bring the charges be any safer to trust than those who
have been tried and trusted and have proven themselves
worthy and well qualified? Put on vour thinking caps just
before voting on the 3d of November.
The writer has not been in touch with the present couutv
campaign, but is alwavs in touch with good government and
the welfare of our people. You mav have well-grounded
reasons to find fault with the partv manao;ement, but there is
no earthlv reason whv we should turn the countv back into
control of the republicans. Vote the democratic countv tick
et next Tuesday, and vote for HON* W* T* CRAWFORD,
tor Congress.—J. J. M,

Brevard iiistitufe Notes.
Editor Sylvan Valley News *•
Mrs. Anna Wilson, of Piedmont,
N. C., has recently removed to Bre
vard to be with her daughter. Miss
Cora wl») is a student in the Nor
mal Department of the Institute
Mrs. Wilson is the second mother
who has come to Brevard this fall
for this purpose.
The whole primary department is
watching with interest the Geog
raphy work of the First Grade
The little ones are studying the dif
ferent races of mankind and just
now are occupied with the life o
the Arabs. As they take up the
tent life of the nomad, they make a
chart showing the tent, the camels
and such habits of life as they can
represent. When the Arab travels
they have a caravan of camels cut
from i>aper, crossing the desert. It
is hard for anybody in the room to
study while this class is reciting.
This is examination week for the
second month and most every body
is consequently more or less ner
vous.
Miss Lillian Osteen has returned
to school from her home in Green

Why Colds Are Dangferous.
Because you have contracted ordi
nary colds and recovered from them
without treatment of any kind, do
not for a moment imagine that colds
are not dangerous. Everyone knows
that pneumonia and chronic catarrh
have their origin in a common cold.
Consumption is not caused by a cold
but the cold prepares the system for
th^ reception and development of
the germs that would not otherwise
have found lodgement. It is the
same with all infectious diseases,
Diptheria, scarlet fever, measles and
whooping cough are much more
likely to be contracted when the
child has a cold. You will see from
this that more danger Iifrks in a col(J
than in any other of the common
ailments. The easiest and quickest
way to cure a cold is to take Cham
berlain’s Cough Remedy. The many
remarkable cures efiSKted by this
preparation have made it a staple
article of trade over a‘large part of
the world* For sale by 0. L. Er

Two democrats are on the
stump for Taft. This is a very
important straw. Ek>th of them
are members of the Roosevelt
Cabinet, and tJae fact warrants
the expectation that most of the
democrats who are holding fed
