they ask Is a fair and reasonable trial of
their means or cure.

Cor. News and Observer.
Mr. Editor: A little sheet at North
Wilkelboro called 'The Journal," gives
utterance to the following :
THE "BONE AND 8INKW." .-
"A Wilkesboro correspondent of tbe
Winston Republican says that Mr. Lin
ney will not withdraw from tbe race for
the Reoublican nomination, for Con-
Lgrees in tbe 8indi8trict "Lux,' tie said
WUlnn'iy (QTifrpt ' . says - that
the baokbooe-ind sinew of the Repub
lican partjtjin the "old state of Wilkes'
are,for Linney and they sre (0 win out
with every foot up.''
" 'Oreall Gewbilikensl' sLuz surely
thinks the people of Wilkes are be
nighted tools. Talk about tbe bone
and sinew of the Republican pany in
Wilkes being for Linney I Every loyal
Republican in tbe county and every
body who knows anything about the
political situation in Wilkes can see
fie stamp of falsehood upon tbe face
of that statement. . We would like to
ask 'Lux' who aided the Democrats in
stealing and throwiog out enough vates
to elect II. L Green to the Legislature?
He would have to answer tbat it was
these loyai Linney men. ' Who was it
that opposed the election of C. H.
So mere as clerk of the court and raD
. 0. Mastin as an independent Candi
da e, and bad his name prinud on the
straight Democratic ticker? These
earrie loyal Linney men. On flection
day in 1900 in tbe town of Wilkes
boro, where did the Democrats keep
their liquor with which to iufluence
voters to vote against the regular Re
publican nomiuee? In the ploe of
business of the, chief of these loyal Lin
ney supporters. Who was it that ap
pealed to Senator Simmons, the boss of
Democracy; to oppose and hold up the
confirmation of J. W. Jones "as post
master of North Wilkesboro, after he
bad been duly selected and appointed?
It was Clarence Call, chief of the loyal
Linney supporters. . Wbo was it that
led a tirade against Spencer Black barb,
after he had been nominated and con
tinued tbe same up to tha day of elec
tion? Why, bless your soul, it was the
loyal Bui) of the Brushies himself. Id
selecting a Republican member of the
county board of election, who was it
that violated the law and refused to ap
point E. M. Blackburn, whom the Re.
publican county executive committee
recommended for appointment to tbst
place? It was one of those same loyal
Linney men. Yet this fellow 'Lux
has the gall to say publicly that this
Linney crowd constitute the backbone"
and sinew of the Republican party in
Wilkesboro."
To one wbo does not know the source
from which tbe above emanated it
might sound plausible. This 'fellow's
continued nagging and jugging at men
of prominence in the Republican party
who are for Mr. Linney, indicates his
lack of gopd sense and decency, and
shows that his little press, paper and
op 1 fit must be the gift of Blackburn to
him for that purpose. A wonderful
change has come over the poor simple
fellow of late. A few years ago he. was
b ggiog Clarence Call, E. O. Mastin, E.
B. Barkley and others, whom he now
kbus s, for money to run his little sheet
w th, and as spon as they made up a
neat4ittle sunk for him he suspended
the publication of his sheet and sold
the press to a Democratic editor and
worSed in his shop for a long time.
In 1893 he was secretary of the Demo
cratic convention, and made the speech
nominating W. 8. Hall, in that con
ventufh, for the House of Representa
tives. Piior to tbt time, and during
the existence of "The Blue Ridge
Times,". a Democratic paper, he was its
associate editor. Not a tnousand years
ago be jifmped off the train between
Winston and Wilkesboro because be
was trying to beat his way without a
ticket. Such deliverances as he has
made above against men wbo have
givelheir life worl and energy for the
party in Wilkes havsja tendency among
decent and respectable people to not
only lower bis paper in common esti
mation, but to make friends forMr.
Linney, w.hom be fights so uncompro
misingly.' This same fellow was H. L.
Green's chief suftorter in 1900 and
the closest adviser of tbe Democrats, in
throwing out enough votes to give
Green his seat. Since that time, one
Mr. Blackburn, a non-resident of the
8th has promised him tbe poet office at
Moravian Falls and given him a little
paper outfit to get him to abuse Mr.
Linney and his friends.
The fellow has not judgment enough
to know anything about politics in
Wilkes and the 8th or he could see the
drift is all for Linney. Outside of his
own lousy self and perhaps a half dozen
others, Blackburn has bo supporters
in Wilkes. Tbe ijttle fellow does not
ttfl that be printed Democratic tickets
with C. H. Somen's name on there to
be used in Lewis Fsjrk and other town
ahps in the uppaf end of the coanty,
and that two-thirds of the leading. Re
pfJtcans were for Mastin in t69", and
that Mastin received one-half or more
of the Republican votes in the county,
and that nothing defeated bim but
Somer combination and traje with a
wing of the Democratic party. That
the disgust these Republicans have
for Somen is because he and his crowd
stole the nomination from Linville
Bum garner, after he had jroo it fairly.
vVhy.dooe be notwMnne people tbat in
1900 he manipulated (he liquor for the
Democrats in Wilkesboro and tbat not
a drop of it was in any Republican's
place of' business on that day Wby
does be not tell that Clarence Ca and
others fought the appointment nd
commission ofjhe man Jonet as sposf
mister at North Wilkesboro.because he
voted against andfought Mr. linney'
iu 1898 at the polls. Tbat tirade against
8pencer Blackburn after he. had been
nominated: does this poor little editof
not know that his friend Blackburn
wired his friends from Asheville during
the Wilkesboro convention in 1898 aud
told them to defeat Linney and nomi
nate Wilooxr Tbat he, the aforesaid
Mr. Blackburn, was tbe principal cou
spirator among the "Insurgents!" the
Aguinaldo of 1898 in the 8th district?
Tbat every act of his since then has
proven him an "Insurgent?" For in
stance, the anDointment of Mull as
postmaster at Morganton, of Jones at
North Wilkesboro, of Greenwood at
Roaring River, Albright at Mount Airy,
and his recommendation in the inter
nal revenue service and all the depart
ments of the government where he has
had an opportunity to make a recom
mendtttion has he not recommended
an "Insurgent?" Take Parsons, of
Ashe, for deputy" collector, vice J. L.
Hayes and many others as sampli.
Does he not know, and why does he
not tell the good people of the 8th of
Blackburn's duplicity to Senator Pritch-
ard, tbe most beloved Republican states
man of the South since tbe organiza
tion or the party, in trying
from him the complimentary vote of
the Republicans of the General Assem
bly of 1903. To verify the above call
on Dr. C. J. Carson, than whom North
Carolina has not a truer man, who is
to-day chairman-of the 8th congress
ional district committee.
Tell your readers, Mr. Journal,
about your man Blackburn trying to
trade the Republican ticket in Watauga
county no further back thanJast elec
tion to tbe Democrats for votes for
hrmBelf. To verify tnis, call on Hon
L. H. Michael, member house of rep
resentatives of Watauga; Mr. .1. L.
Hays, ex-sheriff and ex-deputy collec
tor of Watauga, and numbers of the
other beet men of that county. Call
on Mr. Lambeth, of Allegnany,. for
Blackburn's duplicity, and peanut
policies in that county. Call on Hons.
S. G. Brim. S. E. Marshall and other
prominent Republicans of Surry county
and let them tell you about bis actions
towards tbe best men of the party in
that county. Calf on Hon. J. B.
Isbell, of Caldwell, as well as many
others from that caunty, nd find how
be has treated the Republicans there.
Then talk about the nomination being
in tbe interest of the party. Why, he
even is not a resident of the district ;
not a town in tbe district large enough
forhim to live in ; not a hotel com
modious enough for him in all this
mountain country : nor in Concord ;
nor in Salisbury ; "nor in Statesville ;
nor in Lenoir ; nor in Mt. Airy ; but
he must take apartments in a fine hotel
in Greensboro and bang out a board in
WUkesbaK, indicating that he is prac
ticing law here, when be never in his
life appeared in a hf dozen cases in
the county. Now, Mr. Journal, you
must stop your abuso good men in
the party because they do not agree
with you in your choice. Ii you are
Blackburn's mouthpiece in Wilkesboro,
we presume you are, as you write from
his press, when yon abuse such men as
Call, Mastin and Backl-y and their
friends in Wilkes you must remember
you are abusing men whom the Re
publicans of the county-ave repeatedly
honored and who have always been
faithful to the trust reposed in them hfJ
the county. Your abuse of them will
never bring honor to yourself nor to
those whose cause you advocate.
What I have said about you and about
Mr. Blackburn would have remained
unsaid vers it not for your continual
abuse in your dirty little sheet of Mr.
Linney and his friends. As you have
so little judgment about politics for the
information of you and the man you
so strenuously advocate, I want to say
to you that your man is losing ground
every day and especially since he has
begun his unwarranted and vicious at
tack upon Jadga Boyd. Before he
v ;
commenced that' there was some
shadow of a chasxe for his nomina
tion. Since then what friends he had
in Rowan and Isedell have declared
against him and fojr Col. Linney. His
oondjsct will not he tolerated. He is
do more,' He is oo3emall a man to
bring charges agaihst man of Judge
Boyd's character Aud ability. If you
wish ' to 'rutt a Republican paper in
Wilkes keep your Jbill out oifactional
fights ; otherwise u bad as well fold
your wings and drop from your dizzy
heights into the sands and quagmire
of eternal forjetfuhsess, where you are
veri rapidly drifting. Every man with
en 'Otfg tat ad a horse to thelmule8 are jun,pingi wheat is going up,
branchnowa Itiat L,inney will carry
mos votes la the- district than Black
burn. Even Democrats fear Lumey's
nomination, lor thrfy know it means
defeat for their nominee. Tbey know
he can and will melt any of them on
the stump ia joint aebate anywhere iu
the dstriot and -ajehpunce their meth
ods. They know- Blackburn has
proven himself too'dpwardly in the past
to do so, and, that his nomination

An JONtaM' LETTER.
Atlanta Journal.
I told you so. I got 15o for my
cotton all round. They didn't even
sample it, just rolled it on the scales
and weighed it. I could have gotten
15 next day, but I am Sjatisfied. I
hear it is 17c today. I would not be
surprised if it was 20c by the first day of
March. Thousands of fellows unloaded
at 15c, and they did better than they
ever did in their lives. Now, the next
thing we hear will be dollar wheat. Our
mule dealers in Cartersville have mules
on hand now ranging frohi $175 up to
$325 per head.. Cotton is jumping,
and the south is jumping up and down.i
Every f- How shaking hands wUh him
self. Then, the beautiful snow on us.
But I never was a fool about snow. I'fl
heap rather see two other fools than
myself playing snowball than to be a
third one in the ring with them.
I notice Japan and Russia are growl
ing at eaeu other again. Wonder if
that is going to be a ruckus over there
sure enough, or is it Jingoes at work,
or is the bears trying to bull donn
prices? If tbey do get to fighting ovtr
there, we can sell them bread and meat
and mules and horses and guns and
ammunition, embalmed beef, etc.,
enough to make us rich again. Though
I would hate to see tbem fight, and
hardly believe tbey will, a
I notice Mr. Bryan is on deck again
with mouth and pen. He reminds me
very much of the one long-horn ox in
the gap he won't let any cows out and
no calves in. He is like tbe girl wbo
had been disappointed in about two or
three marriage prospects, and stil
claimed not only to be the belle, but
tbe bell wetber of ber neck of the
woods, holding all the girls back and
telling them it is her time A girl like
that has no more modesty than Mr.
Bryan has. If he don't hush some
folks will believe he has more sense
than modesty. The Democrats will
never have a shadow of a chance in tbe
national elections in this country till
they elimiuate every Bryanistic, Popu
listic, Socialistic plank from their plat
form and come back to Jeffersonian
and Jacksonian principles. The Pop
went out of business after the Demo
crats adopted their Chicago and Kansas
City platforms. And I don't blame
them, for the Democrats stole every
plank out of the old Pops' platform
aud left the poor old fellows sitting on
the ground. Mr. Bryan says it is not
tbe man, it is tbe principle. But I say
there is a great deal more in the horse
than there is ia the rider. ToddSloat e
is a first-class rider, but on some old
nags he could make "no better time
than James K. Jones, as national chair
man, made when be was astride of
Bryan ia 1896 and 1900. But tbe pub
lic understands that Mr. Bryan has to
be reconed with, and unless there is a
candidate nominated in harmony with
the Kansas City platform, then Mr
Bryan is out with his knife up bis sleeve
bunting for game. Whatever may be
ssid of Gorman, Carter, Harrison,
uiney ana ueorge it. Ulcuellan, it is
evident to my mind as I travel over
this country that Judge Parser will
make the fastest nag the Democrats can
put on tbe race course. It is essential
that tbe Democrats carry New York,
b'lt they may carry New York, Indiana
and West Virginia and still be left far
behind in tbe race. Up to date Teddy
is sitting firmly in the saddle, occa
sionally inquiring "What is the matter
with Hanna?" I believe Hanna could
get tbe nomination, and if Teddy were
to die he could be elected, no doubt
But Teddy occupies the same rela
tion to the Republican party in some
things that Bryan does to the Demo-,
cratic party. He can keep the other
fellow frofft beijjg elected, and the
question would be asked with ten-fold
force, if the Demorrats should get in :
win out over Hanna, "Whatf is tbe
matter with Hanna?"
I would suggest Wthe farmers of tbe
south whatever you do or fail to do,
put in plenty of corn to feed your stock
and bread your families, and fatten
your bogs. The southern farmer with
plenty of corn in his crib, meat in his
smokehouse, and meal in his barrel,
can afford to take ten cents or even
eight cents, for his cotton, better than
the southern farmer who buys all bis
upplies, and gets 15 cents for bis cot
ton. Put II' your potatoes and sor
ghum, and corn, and raise your chick
ens, and pigs, gentlemen; live at home
as near as you can and remember that
ben you put in more cotton than
usual you have got to pay the highest
price for labor to cultivate it, and buy
the nignest pncea mules to plow it
with, tbat von have ever tackled hetapplication.
f..ro P1SJ tbo f.wil oonllomon Km I 1
j e- , I
don t play the great big foaq? It is
mighty hard Ket over the fact that
you have played it big. A fellow who
plants nothing but cotton is simply a
otton raiser, but the fellow wbo Uvea
at home and makes everything he eats
on bis farm is a farmer whether
he raises any otton at all or not.
The poor farmer when the sun shines
on him he think it will never be cloudy
any more, and when it rains on him
he thinks it will never be clear any
more. He shoots up like a rocket, and
falls like a rock. The farmer now jan
sell his crop delivered next October at
12) or 13 cents. He is assured of that
if he makes the deal. He may get 15
cents next winter for cotton ; he may
not get more tlian 8 cents. It looks
now like they are going to plant more
than enough tft make 15,000,000 bales
but what the boll 'weevil wiJJ do in
Louisiana, Texas and perchance MiBsis
sippi, with the other disasters thafcome
to cotton, nono can prognosticate with
any detiuiteness. Tbe price of cotton
will be determined by two thLpgs : the
supply on hand, and the amount 'pro
duced any giyen year.
I leave tomorrow for the northwest
for a ten-dsy's trip.

VtHEN ASHCRAFT'S Condi
vv tion Powders are fed to horses
and mules marked improvement
will be seen after the first few
doses. There is no doubt about it.
The Powders, acting directly on the
digestive organs, first thoroughly
cleanses the stomach and bowels,
correcting all disorders, nd then
good healthy appetite comes nat
urally and surely. It is the most
powerful tonic and appetizer on
the market to-day, and when once
used horsemen will have no other.
Ashcraft's Powders -proddce that
silky sheen of ctat and hair so
admired by horse fanciers. The
Powdes fatten but ne'ver bloat.
Always high grade and put up
in doses never in bulk.
By the use of three or four doses
a week your horse or mule will
not be subject to colic or any dis
ease of the stomach and bowels.
"I had an old horse that was in very bad
cftndlttnn generally. He was thin and Bad
blood disease that was causing the hair to
come off. 1 gave the horse three doses of Ash
craft's Condition Powders a day for seven days
and fed him liberally. The appetite improved
from the first few doses and the animal gained
fifty-two pounds in flesh during the week I
gave it three doses a day. The general health
of the animal was greatly improved by the nse
of the powders and he was made almost a new
horse. I most heartily recommend Ashcraft's
Condi! tun Powders, as I know they are a splen
did tonlo and appetizer. C. C. 8IKES, Livery
