W. Morris, . ' Ajmfield insist that the Judge thought he was elected for a full term of eight years.. Now that cannot be so, be cause the idea that when a Judge was elected to fill a vacancy that he was elected for a full term and not to fill the unexpired term, is a new idea -which has sprung up within, the last year or two, and was not thought of when Judge rArmfield was elected. The amended constitution had been in force since 1876, and all the Judges elected to fill vacancies had to be re-elected at the end of the term. Some say that Judge Armfield ought to be endorsed. The fact is, he has already been endorsed. When Judge Montgomery resigned Gov. Scales ap pointed Judge Armfield to fill the va cancy, and, at the next election Judge Armfield was elected by the people to fill out Judge'Montgomery's unexpired term of six years. Is not that an en dorsement by the people ? Jddge Arm- field is more than three score years of age. At the end of his term he will be about 70 years of age, and we respect fully submit that he ought gracefully to retire and give some younger man a chance. Judge Armfield has been honored (and justly bo) as few men have been. He has been a member of the Legislature, Solicitor, Lieutenant Governor, member of Congress for two terms, and Judge for six years. At nis age, under these circumstances, he ought not to have been a candidate. His friends say that he gave up hia practice, etc. Now there is nothing in that, because if Judge Armfield has the physical ability to discharge the onerous duties of the Judgeship, he has the ability to practice law, and the reputa tion "of having been an able Judge would add to his former reputation as an able lawyer, and would enable him not only to regain his former practice, but to add thereto. Judges Merrimon, Montgomery and Connor easily regained their former practice and increased it. Mr. Long is a man in . the prime of a vigorous manhood, a good lawyer, of great ability, industry and of executive ability of a high order, and withal has a splendid mortal character. He has been Solicitor two terms, and there is an unwritten law of the party that no man shall only serve two terms as Solicitor. It is a rule of un lversal ap plication that if you want the best ser vice put of an employee or agent you must select a man with a future, and desirous of making character. There is no "snubbing" of Judge Armfield in this matter. How long is a man to hold office before some one has the right to oppose him, and how many offices is he to have before some one opposes him ? That Judge Armfield has made a good Judge no one denies, but for the reason given above we expect to support Mr. Long. No one in this country is enti tled to "special privileges. " A. the piaster, Rev. J. Q.fWertz, a general picnic was held at the place where the first ichurch buildine- stood, about a mile knd.a half north of Mt. Pleasant. The day opened favorably and before nine o'clock large crowds" were gather ing fj-om every direction. The ladies Of the Home and Foreign Missionary Society were on the grounds with jrefreshments which they served in a satisfactory way, throughout , the entire day. They had secured the services of Mr. J. M. Shuping of Mt. Pleasant, who gave valuable assistance in this department. Part Of the pro ceeds, which amounted to $36.70, will Veteran's Reunion at Newton. The campNo. 162, United Veterans of Catawba county, held their reunion at Newton on July 4th, 1894. To say there was a large crowd don't express it; the crowd of people was immense. Dr. II. W. Bays, 1). D. , formerly of Concord, was the -speaker. He made Ramseur's Excursion. Mr. W. II. Ramseur, of Shelby, has arranged to run a big excursion to Wil mington on the 24th' inst, The nearest : point fdr Concord people is Charlotte,:!. from which place the round trip fare is only $3.75. The excursionists wilLstay in Wilmington two days and board can the grandest-speech ever made to the obtained at $1.00 per day Veterans. His eloquence and pathos caused many 'to shed tears. The doctor had to come a long distance to reach us, butall were glad he came. ' 'He came, he saw, " and captured us. It is seldom in a lifetime we hear uch a speech. , - Veteran. Newton, N. C, July 5, 1894. The Newton Enterprise has the fol lowing account of the reunion: JV TT7 1 un vv eanesaay morning early con- No colored, people will be admitted to the train, and everybody will be guar anteed a seat. Mr, Ramseur's excur sions are very popular. i i". ii i . e ; ....Ato-kt go towaras me ouuaing oi a munmu veyances of every kind were to be seen at the place where the old grave yard rolling &nd by 1Q o,dock streets were crowded with -people, who had come to attend the reunion ' and general picnic, which, "was to be held on that day. We do not think we have seen a much larger crowd gathered here at a political barbacue, which generally proves a very drawing card. Shortly, before 11 o'clock the strains of our cor net band were heard calling the people to assemble in the court house to listen to the address of the day, which was delivered by Dr. Bays. In ft short time the room was filled to overflowing and it was regretted that arrangements had not been made to have the address de livered out of doors as about two thirds of the persons present were unable to get seals in the house, and they certain ly missed a treat for we do not know of any speecn oi ine Kina mat we ever heard iriore highly complimented. We hope to be able to get a copy of the ad dress to publish within a short time. just alter me opening oi the morning exercise a banquet of flowers, tied wih me uonieaerate colors, was sent in by See Our Lawns Rev. JI. Page. Rev. Jesse H. Page, of Morganton, arrived in Concord Friday morning, and remained here several .days, the guest of Mr. W. G. Boshammer. He preached in Forest Hill church last Saturday night, and at Central church Sunday-Doming and Sunday night. Both sermons were fine ones," such as Mr. Page always Dreaches. There was union sen-ice Sunday night, and the theme of the sermon, was cranks, com plainers and croakers. It was a fine sermon, and a blow to those croakers. who see only evil in the land. He paid a magnificent tribute to that prince of great men. President Grover Cleve land. Mr. Page has a host of friends in Concord, who are always mighty glad to see him. Dr. Payne to Leave I's. Rev. C M. Favne. D. D., on hist Sunday morning announced to his con gregation that he dad decided to accept the call extended him by the Presbyte rian church of Washington, N. C, arid this leaveslthe First Presbyterian church without a pastor. Dr. Payne s congre gation, with one mind, exceedingly re gret ws decision. He is very popular with his own and with all our people and the Presbyterians will never secure a pastor who will serve them more ably or more more faithfully. He has re cently completed the tenth year of his pastorate here, and the church has been under his charge wonderfully built up and strengthened. The Presbyterians of- Washington have secured a prize pastor, and-the people of that town will gam a spendid citizen. Death of Dr. F. M. Henderson. Dr. F. Marion Henderson, a well known citizen of Concord, died at the county home last Sunday morning after a short illness. He was a number of years ago one of the most prominent citizens of Concord and enjoyed a good practice. Several years ago he moved to Texas where he remained a year or so. Four or five years ago he returned to Concofd. The remains were interred in the cemetery Monday morning, the ser vices being conducted by Rev. Mr. Davis. is located About half past ten, the exercises of the day began, and were opened with prayer by Rev. Paul Barringer. The pastor then made a short and impres sive talk, after which he announced that Mr. Jno. D. Barrier would give in a general form,, the hfctory of the church. Mr. Barrier mounted the rostrum and held the vast audience for nearly thirty minutes, speaking in a bold deliberate manner, thus enabling all to hear. He spoke of the trials, dif ficulties and ODDOsition through which the church had passed, and grew quite eloquent in his descriptions of the same. We learned tiom him that one hundred and twensy years had passed since St. John's church had its first regular pastor, also ; that four church buildings had been erected in that time. Rev. B. S. Brown was the next speaker. He seemed to have been thoroughly sat urated with wit and good humor, and many were the cheers and tears brought from those who listened. His subject-- Common Brotherhood" was ably discussed. He was followed by Rev. aul Barringer who appeared in usual pleasant style and made the grove around ring with his inborn oratory. The exercises were interspersed with music which was soul-inspiring and re minded one of the old camp-meeting times when God' s choicest gems of song were offered in open air. But the most impressive scene of the day was witnessed after dinner, when all who were so disposed marched by in order, placing rock after rock on .top of each other, thus erecting in the long deserted and almost forgotten, grave yard, a temporary monument at the place where the handsome granite one is to be placed. We venture that, no one j with a heart of flesh, could witness such a scene without emotions of the deepest reverence for those who were sleeping there. Old, middle aged, and young took their turn and thus did homage to their dead ancestors. Ihis is a noble, worthy tribute to the menory of great-grand fathers and mothers who were laid away in this silent spot more than a Century and a quarter ago. Some before their country's freedom was set to music and sung as today, by. count- less throngs, gave up their weary pil igrimage, others amid the ringing of fcells, the. booming of cannon, and the shouts of victory, closed their eyes upon tlw?!scenc with thankful hearts for the liberty which their prosterity should enjoy. U e stood by their sacred ashes and wondered how long yet shall it be, until their vast assemblage, gathered to clay to do homage to their names, shall meet the common fate and sleep as silently as they. No costly monument, not even a marble slab, is reared to tell to genera tions vet to come the grandeur of their livfs ; jassarnine vine or myrtle wreath, plucked by a friendly hand., adorns their neglected graves, yet even now, their victorious heads are wreathed with choicest flowers from God's own exhaustless garden, no weary traveler passing by their resting place, turns from his way to shed a tear of sympathy uppn their graves. Dead, yet not for gotten. Theirs is the common lot, but how unfortunate that not a word can beifpund to their memory.

Last May, I had a severe - cold. The violent coughing, for, which I could procure no relief, at last brought on bleeding of the lungs. I was forced to take to my bed. The doctors were unable to do anything for me. I thought of Ayer Cherry Pectoral, and determined to try it. I did so, and it helped me right off. I took seven bottles of this medicine, and now consider myself cured. My cure was a surprise to all my acquaintances,-who were hopeless of my recovery." Johit H. Thomas, Mlddleton, Annapolis Co., N.
