Boae of the Western democrats that Lock Craisr. of Ashe- - vitle, bo selected as the next demo- cratic nominee for governor. Lraig I was one of the prime movers In the impeachment of the Republican Judges, and of course he thinks he ahould be paid for trying to oust the judges in disgrace so democrats mights get their Job. Francis D. WiDHton, of Bertie, la also a candi date for the nomination. It is not known lust what claims he has on " the job. It may be for services ren dercd in the redshlrt campaign, and Instructing democratic registrars how to count democratic votes, or it may be on account of his former friend ship for George II. White, colored. Mr. Kitchin, of the Fifth district, alHO has a claim on the nomination by reason of the Fifth district com bine which promised him the job. The fight for the democratic nomi nation for governor will be a lively one and a lot of dirty linen will be hune out on the line before it is over. STATK'8 MONEY FOR DEBTS. PARTY DuriDg the campaign last year when the Republicans charged the Democratic officials with extrava gance, the News and Observer and other Democratic papers ssid it was a campaign lie. Now read the fol lowinsr from Tuesday's News and Observer : One word of caution to the legis lature : The last legislature employed more pages, in ore clerks and more laborers than were needed. In the early part of the session they were actually in the way. This legislature should on the first day cut down the number and prevent useless extra va- gance iu the matter of help." The last legislature appointed all those unnecessary clerks and pages in order to pay off campaign debts with the State's money. They may not do it by appointing quite so many unnecessary pages and clerks this session, but before the term is over it will be found that more of me state's money has been appro- j priated to the benefit of party pets. PROVIDE FOR PUBLIC TIOXS FIRST. 1N8TITU- The Catawba County News (dem ocratic) says: It would be a pretty tale to tell if North Carolina would neglect her unfortunate insane and young crim inals." In the light of the past record of I democratic legislatures it Is not "too absurd to even think about." Past legislatures have done even worse, in creating new offices and increas ing salaries of party pets, but it is to be hoped that such will not be the case with the present legislature. lha public institutions and other matters in which the public are vi tally interested should be provided for first, and then if any money is left let the democratic pie-hunters make a grab for It. But new judge ships and solicitors should wait their turn this time. The Raleigh Times states that Mr. E- M. Koonce, the member of leg islature from Onslow County, will Introduce another bill in the legisla ture against carrying concealed weapons, and will try to push his measure through this time. At the last session of the legislature Mr. Koonce introduced such a bill and tried in vain all the session to get the measure passed. But when the legislature adjourned he was pre sented with a pistol by his brother members and told to go home and protect himself. Ask your neighbors and friends to subscribe to The Caucasian. The legislature is now in session and they will need the paper in order to know what the law-makeis doing. are An exchange says that Bryan is the biggest man in his party. And now the question arises, how big is Bryan? THE GENERAL AUZMBLT. The Raleigh Evening Times gives rood Advice to the mem ben of the legislature. The Times eays: "The hope will be expressed by the people of Jorth Carolina that at the present session of the general assembly the members will endeavor to enact fewer laws and better laws, that they wiil be free and Independent- In action and thoozht. that they will endeavor to keep down strife, and that they will deal fairly by all the people without attempt ing to nil the air with bitterness and the statutes with wild and clap trap legislation. It ought to be an harmonious session.0 We hope the present democratic legislature will heed the advice of fered by the Times. Bat If they fol low the excellent advice given above jew8 noCklng to Jerusalem, the fig tree green all the year round and no difference between winter and sum mer. The BUte Superintendent of Pub lic Instruction has recommended compulsory education in public schools of the State. Before this Is put In force comfortable school build ings should be provided and the schools so located that young children would not have more than two miles to walk to attend school. As the schools are located at present some small children have to walk three miles over wet and muddy roads and then sit in a cold room all day. These conditions should be remedied before thinking of compulsory edu cation for the SUte. The resignation of Mr. Oortelyou as Chairman of the Republican Na tional Committee puts Mr. Harry S. New, of Indianapolis, at the head of the Committee. Mr. New was made vice chairman of the Commit tee a year aeo and now becomes the acting Chairman. Many of the poll ticians are busy trying to find out what candidate the new Chairman will favor for the next president and just how much prestige his sup port would give the new candidate , but Mr. New is not talking. The Raleigh Times Intimates that Mr. Josephus Daniels Is after a job In the event Mr. Bryan is elected president 'next time. Mr. Daniels will doubtless claim that his fidelity J to Bryan entitles him to a slice of pie. He has followed Bryan when Brvan was in the lead. Has fol lowed when he, Parker, was in the lead, and G rover when he was in the lead. In other words, Daniels has fol lowed the band wagon blindly but he still claims to be "regular." On Wednesday, January 23d, the legislature will meet in joint ses sion and vote for a United States Senator to succeed Mr. Simmons. The democratic members will walic up like tin soldiers and vote for Mr. Simmons to succeed himself they are afraid not to vote for their boss, though many of them seriously dislike him and would prefer to vote for some one else. As the democrats are in the majority in both houses Mr. Simmons will be re-elected. The public school teachers are paid less for the work done than any other class of people in the State and still some of them can't get their money when they want it. Such a condition as this should not exist, taking into consideration the amount appropriated for public schools in this State. A letter from the far South has been received in Washington boom ing "Hon. W. G. Tebault, of Lou isiana, for Bryan's running mate in 1908." Who Is the Hon. Tebault ? Does he tro down to the barn to salt his cattle every morning ? Ifhedoesn' he Is not eligible for the job. The following from the Hickory Times-Mercury is to the point : "Let a law be passed saying that all county school boards must be elected by a vote of the people, and that it shall be unlawful for the leg islature to appoint magistrates in the State." - The Washington Post has proof conclusive that King Edward is not democratic. The Post says: One writer declares that King Edward Is a man of democratic habits. And yet we never heard of his spending his-time viewing with alarm. ' Wouldn't Take the Bisk.

Of course, the liquor trust understands Mr. Simmons, and he understands it. Hickory Mer cury. ThaX Bmtm AH. Mr. W. 8. Pollard, of this city, grew the largest beets last year of anybody.

The Republicans in their caucus Tuesday night gave their compli mentary vote for Speaker to Mr. M, Horshaw, of Caldwell County. They did not decide on whom they would vote for U. S. Senator.

The temperature at Manila is 65 6, while at Bagaio, the capital of the province of Benguet, it is 30. This is the coldest weather ever experienced in the history of Manila.7 The nearest approach to it was in 1872, when the temperature was 56.6. The natives are suffering great discomfort, as they are unpro vided with proper clothing for the changed weather conditions. kM S&ib Of IflWTM k M Ws 11 m WiLkcsboro Cbrookle.

FOUR ECLIPSES THIS YEAR, San and Moon Each Will Be Twice Daring- 10O7. Hidden Astronomical phenomena for the year 1907 will embrace four eclipses, two of the sun and two of the moon. The total eclipse of the sun, January 13, invisible in the United States, ', .. OQ u ' will be observed as a partial eclipse throughout the greater part of Asia, the path of totality passing from Russia at sunrise across an almost inaccessible portion of Siberia, at sunset. A partial eclipse of the moon, January 29, will be partly visible in the United States, the moon setting eclipsed as seen from the greater portion of this country. The begin ning of the lunar elipse will be visi ble generally all through North America, the Pacific Ocean, Central Asia and Australia. The end will be visible in Northwest America, the Pacific Ocean, Asia, Australia, Central and Eastern Europe. There will be an annular eclipse of the gun July 10, visible in all of North America and parts of the At lantic and Pacific Ocean, and just at sunset on the west coast of Africa. The most interesting phenomenon of this year, and the one of mast scientific value, will be the transit of the planet Mercury on the morning of November 14, which will be generally visible In the United States, the sun rising with the little planet visible across the disk of the great king of day. This phenome non will be generally visible In Eu rope, Africa, Western and Central Asia, Western Australia and Sauth America. The theory of Mercury's move menU has always been a source of trouble to astronomers, even in La land's time. It is said the planet seems to exist for no other purpose than to throw discredit on astrono mers. Therefore the transit next fall wiil be watched with unusual scientific interest.-Washington Post.

Henry Walker, the negro who assaulted Col. L. Banks Holt, November 6, at his residence, having shut him in the face, paid the penalty of his crime on the gallows today. The attacK ot wain cowardly nature the slightest do attack of Walker was of the most and there was not the slightest doubt that It was his intention to have killed Col. Holt, and he came extremely near doing so. For some weeks Col. Holt lay at the point ef death. The negro went to his death calmly and showed not the slightest fear. Before tne black cap was placed over his head Walker made a statement in which he said that he he did not shoot Coi. Holt, that he had not been on the lot for some time before the shooting, and that he had made a confession in jail some weeks ago In the hope that it might prolong his life.

Failure Does Not Prove Incom petency. There is a general conspl a-y to lie about business success," says Will Payne in "The Mere Incident of Failure," in January Everybody's. "The nuwsr apars, having roasted the rich citizen wh?n alive, feel bound to say something flittering about him when dead. So in the obituary notices they make him a kind of seer who pierced the future with un erring vision, and laid out his money accordingly. They endow him with infallible judgment and great im agination. Other wealthy citizens, nervously aware of the times they missed going over by a hair's breadth and of the large part pure luck played in theU success, fall in with almable fiction and give reminis cences of the deceased calculated to bolster op his prophetic character. Failure, especially in modern bu3f ness, is a mere incident, and of itself proves nothing whatever concerning the ability: of the bankrupt. . four age, not prescience, is what is chiefly needed to succeed- ' Remember that drinking to a man's health Selected."" will not prolong life. 31.IST W . .
