T I lli NINO QUE- The New York World, which is tak ing an active and earnest interest in electing Jtidge Parker, has preaQkted the'teij living questions in this cam "igo, as it sees them, in a singularly strong and clear way. They are ten strong arguments So favor of electing the Democratic candidate which will have great weigbwith independent voters. We make room for the World's article. It declares that "the real liv ing, burning questions of the campaign are :" ' I. ROUGH RIDER OR JUDGE ? Bhall the people of the United States have for the next four years a per sonal or a constitutional government the sovereignty of a party dictator or the sovereignty of the people a Rough-Rider or a judge for chief msg istrate? , II. REFORM THE TARIFF. Shall the tariff never be revised ex cept with the consent and under the direction of its beneficiaries by "the friends of its abuses, its extortions, and its discriminations" or shall it be revised in a judicial spirit by "the friends of the masses and for the com mon weal t" III. CURB THE TRUSTS. Shall monopolies like the beef trust, controlling universal necessaries of life, continue to receive the protection of a sheltering tariff, and enjoy still longer indulgence in the non-enforcement of anti-trust laws by reason of their enor mous contributions to party campaign funds and their potential influence with party leaders? IV. THE ABUSE OF POWER. Shall the action of the President in ridding himself of the one successful trust prosecutor in order to place the corporations in making his former private secretary and head of the De partment of Commerce a campaign fund solicitor from the very corpora tions he was appointed to "diligently investigate" in appointing a railroad corporation official Secretary of the Navy, and a political agent of .the Southern Pacific Railway to the head of the departments to supervise and curb corporations (all to aid his own campaign) Shall this "surrender of the Rough Rider" be approved by the people ? ' V. NO CORPORATION RULE. Shall the rule of corrupt corpora tions in politics and their controlling influence in government be further en larged and confirmed by continuing in power a party closely allied with them by the granting of special privileges in the -tariff, by the election of corpora tion agents to Congress and to State offices, and through the reconstruc tion of the Cabinet to meet their views T VI. BTOF THE EXTRAVAGANCE.' Shall we continue a policy of reckless extravagance, as evidenced by the ex penditure of more than 12,500,000,000 during the last four years, or shall we return to a reasonable economy f VII. CHECK THE CORPORATION. Shall corruption bred of too long a lease of power, as instanced in the half-disclosed postal frauds, in the land office scandals, in the pension abuses, in the sale of offices and nego tiation of corrupt public contracts by Senator Dietrich and Burton, in the purchase of a seat in the Senate by the Democrat, W. A. Clark, ratified by Republican Senators, and in the as cendency and executive recognition of notorious corruptions and., profes sional spoilsmen, be condoned and con tinued ! VIII. NO "DIG BTOk" BLUSTER. ShalV, the attitude of the United States toward foreign nations be that of a bully with a "big stick" and a chip on his shoulder, or shall we re turn to the policy of Washington and Jefferson "Peace and friendship withy all nations, entangling allfanceswith none'minding )ur owneJusinessnd expecting other nations to do the same ? IX. WHAT WILL THE FILiriNOS DO TO Isjf Shall we continue the malevolent ef fect upon ourselvrs of so-called "be nevolent assimilation" in the Philin pines until it is too late to withdraw from that deplorable and un-American adventure in Asiatic colonialism which becomes all thaynore dangerous the more we impose upon them the veneer of our civilization and until the by brra and forevesQien rices of those islands shall be incorporated into our body politic, to cast the dies in our national conventions, as the delegate from Hawaii did at Kansas City in 1900; to participate in our elections, to sit in our Congress, and eventually to help to govern those who now by force im pose upon them government without consent and taxation without repre sentation. X. "LET tg HAVE PEACE." Shall we, forty yean after the end THE TEN LIVING BUI TIONS. of the war and after a complete recon ciliation of the once hostile States, tear asunder by a rftvival of the sectional issue the bonds of fraternity and con cord and this when the people of the South have just secured the nomina tion of a conservative and sound money Democrat for 'resident, and have given repeated instaares of thf strongest national and patriotic feel ing? m I'glf marge Agalnat toang man of Itiyvan. Salisbury, N. C, Aug. 8. Sam Maxwell, a young white man 19 years old, is in jail here charged with shoot ing Bessie Kiepnio, a U year old wh'te girl of southern Rowan. Behind the charge and Maxwell's imprisonment are ugly charges and counter charges All unfit for publication. This much is certain. About 5:30 o'clock last Monday af ternoon the Kiepnio girl was shot in the head and the bullet has not yet been removed. For days she lay in an unconscious condition, and the attend ing physicians had almost despaired of her recovery when she regained con sciousness. Being questioned she slated that she and Maxwell were in the yard at the home of Maxwell's brother-in-law, Stephen Williams, when Maxwell made improper suggestions to her, and a little later fired. Seen in jail to-day, Maxwell stated that when the girl was shet he was sitting in the room with bis mother and sister. He denies all knowledge of the affair, and declares he can establish an alibi. He is being held without bail, as the wounded girl is by no means out of danger. Conalder Hlmaeir Dead. Youth's Companion. Mr. L., a good-natured German, was the proprietor of a clothing business in a country town. He had in his em ploy one John S., whom he had ad vanced from cash boy to head clerk. Since his promotion John had several times asked for an increase of salary, and each time his request had been granted. One morning he again ap peared at the old merchant's desk with another request for an increase of $10 a month. "Vy, Shon," said Mr. L , "I dink bays you pooty veil alretty; vat for I bays you any more?" "Well," replied John, confidently I am your principal help h.ere, know every detail of the business, and indeed, I think that you could not get along Without me." "Is da t so? Vy, Shon, vot would do suppose you vas to die?" "Well, I suppose that you would have to get along without me then." The old Teuton took several whiffs from his big pipe and finally said : "Veil, Shon, 1 guess you petter gon aider yourself dead." JXhj People Do Not Go 10 march New York Sun. The reason why men do not go to church is obvious enough. It is apparent aa is the reason why a play fails tfi draw a crowd to a theatre. They are not interested in the church because they are not interested in re ligion. They have not the deep and vital religious faith of which church worship is the outward expression, They may think they believe, but ac tually they do not believe in the re ligion they profess. They are not con vinced that their fate for all eternity depends on faith in its dogmas and obedience to its obligations. How to get men to go to church ? Let there bs a revival of true and genuine reli gious faith and the churches will not be large enough to hold them. But not such a revival can be started until Christian ministers themselves turn from criticisms of Christianity to actual and fervent belief in it as the only means of salvation. tt erlj Forfeits Hla L I fe. runaway almost ending fatally, started a horrible nicer on the log of J.

With few exceptions the leading Rotajfrn county Democrats who have so far expressed themselves believe that W. C. Newland,' the Democratic oppo nent of Spencer Blackburn, will sweep the district. Hon. Theo. F. Kluttz, the present representative from this district who declined a renomination, is among those who believe that Mr. Newland's majority will be in excess of his own in 1902. It is a well known fact that all the money, influence and political subterfuge possible was employed in Blackburn's supreme effort to defeat Mr. Kluttx in 1902. Being an off year there were about 900 Democrats in Rowan county who did not go to the polls. This a presi dential year, will bring out the full Democratic vote and Mr. Kluttz stated in an interview with a Sun representa tive that e had no doubt but that Mr. Newland's majority would be larger than his own. Mr. Kluttz's interest in the campaign will be active in point of personal influence and work on the stump. Mayor Boyden, recently elected chairman of the Democratic Executive Committee and who has served in this capacity for fifteen years, says: Mr. Newland may carry Rowan by 2,000; favorable conditions, such as I now see may increase this majority. No can didate of those in the race could have polled as many votes an Hon. Theo. F. Kluttz with the same conditions prevailing but we will .have out a full vote in Rowan this year and Newland will sweep the county. He is honest, earnest, broad-minded and should re ceive the vote of every Democrat in the county." Walter Murphy, Esq., who was one of the leaders of the I lacked forces not only in Rowan county but in the Wilkesboro convention, said: "New- land will get as many votes as the State and county tickets in Rowan. I thiuk Parker will run ahead of all." Senator Overman says he believes Mr. Newland will increase the Demo cratic majority in this district in view of the fact that the hardest fight ever put up by the Kepublicans was made in this district last year and the further fact that a presidential year always brings out a large vote. "The more the people see of Will Newland the better they will like him. His personal charter is unassailable and his political record is beyond reproach Hon. John S. Henderson, chairman of the Democratic Executive Com mitteee of this district, thinks there is no doubt of Mr. Newland's election, , . Tbe Dlflerenre. Noah Webster was, as might be sup posed, a stickler for good English, and often reproved his wife's misuse of the language. On one occasion, according to a fanciful yarn, Webster happened to be alone in the dining room with the very pretty housemaid and, being sus ceptible to such charms, put his arms around her and kissed her squarely on the mouth. Just at this moment Mrs. Webster entered the room, gasped, stood aghast and in a tone of horror exclaimed, "Why, Noah, I am sur prised I" Whereupon Mr. Webster, coolly and calmly, but with every evi dence of disgust, turned upon her, "How many times must I correct yeu on the use of simple words?" he re marked. "YeXi mean, madam, that you are astonished. I, madam, I am the one that is surprised." Doubt. Senator Beveridge uses neither rail way passes nor telegrapb iranits, in which respect he differs from most men in public life. On one occasion lil had been speaking at an old settlers picnic and in making his way through the crowd was relieved of all his money, He did not discover bis loss until he attempted to pay for a hast; lunch at the railway station. He explained to the restaurant keeper, who said in sus picious tones: "Show your railroad riaas asses if you are a senator." "I don't them," replied Mr. Beveridge. Then you ain't no senator," said the landlord with conviction. Just then a friend happened aloDg and the senator was relieved from an embarrassing situation. Violent Attack of Diarrhoea rnred nnd Diarrhoea Renaedj and Perhaps n Lire Saved. 'A short time ago I was taken with a violent attack of diarrhoea and believe I would have died if I had not gotten relief," says John J. Patton, a leading citizen of Patton, Ala. "A friend re commended Chamberlain's Colic, Chol era and Diarrhoea Remedy. I bought a twenty-five cent bottle aud after taking three doses of it was entirely cured. I oousider it the beat remedy in the world for bowel complaints. For sale by M. L. Sarah. THE SANITARIUM HABIT. Ulanr Women In Almost Perfect Health Imagine Thejr Aro Invalids. Cblcago Chronicle. Victims 0 tbe sanitarium habit, per sons whose health is at least fair are to be found in nearly every institution maintained for the treatment of inva lids. Such persons are for all practical purposes well, but imagine physical maladies to which they can lay no just claim. Most of theafi persons at one time or another had disorders which caneed them to take refuge in a sanitarium. Now the nualcrn sanitarium, appealing as the great majority do to the patron age of the wealthy, is fitted up with every device calculated to roake life easy. The servants are trained to an ticipate the patron's every wish; in fact, the patron is expected to do nothing except amuse himself, and in order to help bim do so tfcere are usually pro vided billiard tables, bowling alleys, shuttle boards, card rooms, tennis courts andgolf links. And if he suffers from the slightest ill there is always a doctor on hand to soothe bim and supply nos trum!, the necessity for which may be real or fancied. Having become accustomed to the sheltered life of the sanitarium, with its daily round of coddling, the palron is loth to leave when restored to his usual health, and if he is long on money and short on will the chances are that he will postpone his departure again and again, until at last he settles down with the full intention of remaining inde finitely. The probabilities are that in order to set himself right with his conscience he will endeavor to make himself believe that he is still physically unfit to play an active part in life, and na'urally it is not to tlie interest of the sanitarium's proprietor to have him undeceived. By far the great majority of the vic tims of the sanitarium habit are women, the femiue nature being especially sus ceptible to coddling. When a semi- invalid of the fair sex once gets used to receiving a daily visit from a soft-spoken physician who tenderly holds her hand and lavishes upon her sympathy and advice it is difficult for her to go back to a life where such an experience is not always there tocommand at a moment's notice. Women also are prone to acquire a morbid habit of harping on their real or fancied ailments, and no place pro vides such sympathetic listeners as a sanitarium. Turning; the Tablea. A Kentucky lawyer was standing on the steps of the Covington postoflice the other day, when an old colored man came up and, touching his hat, asked : "Kin you tell me, is (lis de place where dey sells postage stamps?" "Yes, sir; this is the place," replied the lawyer seeing a chance for a little quiet fun; "but what do you want with postage stamps, uncle?" "To mail a letter, sah, of course." "Well, then, you needn't bother about stamps; you don t have to put any on this week." "I don't?" "No, sir." "Why for not? ' "Welf, you ate, the conglomeration of the hypotenuse has differentiated the parallelogram so much that the consanquinity don't emulate the ordi nary effervescence, and so the govern ment has decided to send letters free." The old man took off his hat, dubi ously, shook his head and then with a long breath remarked: "Well, boss, all dat may be true, an' I don't say it ain't; but just sposen dat de eckaentricity of de aggregation transubstantiates de ignominiousness of de puppendiceller and sublimites de puspicuity of de consquences don't you qualificates dat de government wfiild confiscate dat dare letter?
