tedious ..: investigation; snows that
Goyemor Garr had less to do with
the lease than almost any of the
board and that there was absolutely
nothing secret or sly ' about the
7;liok affair. The testimony goes to

that a set of wise "business

lease that they thought was a good
bargain. i.-: v-f
We suppose that when the inves
tigation fails to find a crooked line
in the whole transaction there will
arise other, opportunities- to make
charges just as groundless as those.
CliANTON'S PIE GiME,
There seems no limit to the in
genions pie hunters and no bounds
beyond which they will not go to
get the coveted goal.
Mecklenburg's man Clan ton has
introduced a bill to create a board

of commissioners to haye qhargoof
that county's splendid road . system.
To operate upon the feelings of .the
anti-Democrats he charged that
Democrats would not buy rocks or
hire teams from anybody but Demo
crats. Now it (urns out that Clan-,
ton hirncdf was paid ? last . year
1,04:9.54 for rock, which was more
than any Democa-. wa-s paid. But
an extreme pie hunter what won't
he do ? ! ' ' ; ''
Who would have thought two

of eyery possible j prerogative that it
could now; have the 'gall to bestow
upon the present Jncumbent almost

Old Sarsapanlla.
That's Ayer's. The same old
sarsaparilla as it was made ana t
sold by Dr. J. C. Ayer 50 years
aaa. In the laboratory it is
(Lilferent. There incdern appli- s
aiices lend speed to skill and
experience. But the sarsapa-
rilla is the sanie old' sarsaparilla
that made the record 50 years
of etirec. Why don't we better
it?" Well, re're much in the
condition of the Bishop and the ;
raspberry : " Doubtless, " he
said, " God might have made a (
better berry. J But doubtless, f
also, lie never did. " Why
don't we better the sarsaparilla?
We can't. Ve are using the t
same old plant that cured the
Indians and the Spaniards. It
has not been' bettered! And
since tee make sarsaparilla com-
pound 'out of sarsaparilla plant, )
we see no way of improvement.
Of course, if we wire making
somejsecret chemical compound
we might....: But we're not.
We're making the same old sar
saparilla . to -cure the ' same old
diseases. You can tell it's the (
same old, sarsaparilla be- i
x;ause it works the same old. f
cures. It's the sovereign blood
