CONCORD, OCT , 23, 1896.
It is fashionable nowadays to look
for candidates to be taken down and
others set up like rolling ten pms.
The polical breezes have several
times carried the rumor that certain
changes on our county ticket were
to be made.
Now we say once for all on the
authority of Chairman A B Young
that no formal proposition has in
4his whole campaign come to him
aa the head of the county Demo
cratic Executive Committee and
that no proposition or adyan cement
or such action has ever gone out
from the committee. The whole
rumor or intimations or insinuations
that, the committe were considering
cuch action is absolutely without
foundation in fact.
We had prepared a synopsis of the
two Populist 8peecher Wednesday,
$mt in our press for room for all the
znatter on hand they were crowded;
oit, not that they are less interesting
iian Mr. Gudgers great effort. They
yere really much more meritorious
n(l free from absurdities and pers
jer'aions of facts, Mr. Dockery is
-realjyfan interesting personage and
cao style that is palatable from its
Yariation from the ordinary stump
speech. He surprised us by inti
mating that there could not be a too
great inflation of money. ;It made
us tnink of Continental money and
Confederate money as it was before
the close of the war and aa it would
have been if we had gotte.n our inde
pendence. On the tariff it seemed
difficult for him to give his vie vs
not in Democratic; terms. Tariff for
revenue with incidental protection
would have fitted his vie ws it seemed.
He was hard on Mr. Russell and
if he could have a joint cauvasa with
him Mr. Russell would probably
wish he had not cheated Mr. Dock
ery out of the' gubernatorial non,i
nation. It was rather strange that le
could not see how the increase of
factories could help the colored race.
It seems to be a fact that the fac
tories give lifeD a large circle of
business around them and the col
ored man comes in for his full share
of the benefits with all of ; us not
immediately connected with them. It
would have been a treat to Concord
and a wholesome check to Mr. Gudg
er if Mr. Dockery could have got-
ton to reply to him.
Wonder if Mr. Cadger wont think
on the 4th of November that Demo-
- i' i
cracy is the gayest dead thing he
ever saw.

Consul General Lee, at Havana, is

Fire Tuesday wiped out the whole
business portion of the town of En
field, Mass. ; - ;
An Empire City, Ore., di3patch
says that the jsteamer Armgo ran
ashore in Coes bay and was wrecked
Three passengers were drowned and
a large number are missing. '
The prevalence of typhoid fever
at Salt Lake City, Utah, caused the
board of health there to inspect the
water supply. It was found to be
pure. The disease was attributed to
bad milk.
A prominent Episcopal rector of
Philadelpha has signed an; agree
ment with the wardens of his church
that he will never preaoh oyer fif
teen minutes, except on special and
extraordinary occasions. j
Joseph D Kierman, lawyer notary
public and reporter for the New Or
leans Telegram, was fined $10 and
sent to the parish prison 15 days for
disturbing the Palmer and Buckner
meeting there.
. John R Gentry tried for a first
record of 2 minutes for a harness
horse Tuesday at Terre Haute but
failed, his time being 2:u4, Gen
try goes to Philadelphia Thursday,
and Belmont Park October 28th.
The big hearty, healthy man is a
continual irritation to his dvsnentio
friend. Constipation is the root of
nine-tenths ot the sickness oi men,
and a large proportion of the sick
ness of women: It cag be cured
easily, naturally and quickly! Na
ture is constantly working as hard
as she can throw off impurities, and
to force out poisonous refuse matter.
When there is an impediment, Dr.
Pierce's Pleasant Pellets set the
wheels working again without any
trouble. They i assist nature in a
gentle, healthful, efficient way.
There is nothing violent about
their action, and yet it is just as
certain as is it were twice as violent,
"You do not become a slave to
their use." They are different and
better than any I other pill for the
cure of constipation, headache and
kindred derangements. Almost all
druggists understand this, and are
conscientious enough to tell you bo.
The druggist who tries to sell f you a
substitute is not! a safe mani from1
whom to buv medicine. Send 21
cents in one-cent stamps to World's
Dispensary Medical Association,
Buffalo, N. Y. and receive Dr.
Pierce's 1008 page "Common i Sense
Medical Adviser." profusely ulus
