The Danbury Reporter N.E. & E. P. PEPPER, Publishers. TERMS TO ANY ADDRESS : One year. SI, 6 nip. 50c., 3 mo. 25c KKBIUAKY 25, NEW DEPARTURE. This week the Reporter prints n six-page instead of an eight-page sheet. This arrangement Ihj comes nacessary in order to ac commodate our large and ever growing correspondence depart ment. Probably some of our read ers may wonder why it is that, we shall be able to get more news in six pages than formerly with eight. To which we will say that under t he new arrangement all our print ing will be done at home and every page will contain fresh home news, whereas under the old arrangement four pages of our paper have been printed at Charlotte, and were tilled with plate matter, foreign ads and other stutf not acceptable to the general body of our readers. Under the new arrangement our friends will lie gainers. Iwnuse they will get two mom pages of fresh stuff. The new departure will engender a lot mora of trouble, pains and expense, but the Repor ter's growing business demands it. —The people all over the county are falling in love with the Re porter. Last Saturday we liooked seventeen goxl men and it wasn't a good day for subscribers either. The high prices paid for cotton recently will have n tendency to increase the production of that staple in all cotton sections this year, and the result will be over production and ruinous prices next fall. The report comes from nil sec tions of this county that the fann ers are exceedingly slow about preparing for another crop of to bacco. One gentleman here from the Meadows neighborhood Sat urday said he had heard of but few plant beds having been burned even this late. The slight infla tion of prices recajitly is not fool ing many of our folks. They be lieve such to be only a rus« of the Trust to increase the tobacco acreage. The farmer who makes preparations for raising his sup lilies at home this year, before setting aside any land for tobacco, ii the farmer who will wear the most contented physiognomy next Christinas. MEADOWS. Meadows, Feb. 15. Miss Nannie Covington has gone to Mayodan. Miss Lula Tnttle, of Greens boro, visited her mother recently. Mr. Geo. Murray and family ljHve moved to Avalon. Miss Mary Chatman is right sick. Miss Maggie Adams, of Walnut Cove, visited at Meadows last week. Hurrah. Mr. .T., make up for lost time. Mr. Peter Smith is still ill, we are sorry to notS. No wonder Miss Mamie is look ing sad this week, her best fallow did not come Sunday. What is the matter with Mr. J. O. M. ? We have not seen him in Meadows lately. YOU AND I. PUTS AN END TO IT ALL A grievous wail of times conies as a result of unbearable pain from over taxed organs. Dizziness, Back ache, Liver complaint and Con stipation. But thanks to Dr. King's N«w Life Pills they put an end to it all. They are gentle but 1 thorough. Try them. Only 25c, ] Guaranteed by all Drug Stores. f MURDERER,, LIAR, HYPOCRITE. ' Terrible Arraignment Of the Demon Ot Strong Drink. Yes, you liquor monger, demon of strong drink, you are not only a liar, but you are a hypocrite, a murderer, and a rogue. You say thai you love your children, and that you value honesty, justice and truth. Yon say that you are in favor of good government and low taxes. You say that you are apposed to murder, and that you »rant good society and a high state of morals, yet, you are constantly loing things to corrupt our mor ils, thwart the claims of justice, ind fill our land with shame and misery. Instead of manifesting jrour love for your children by en acting such laws as would be ben eficial to them, and throwing such safeguards around them as would protect them from tho murderer, the rogue and the despoilers tiand, you are opening the way for pour loved ones to walk into these langers, and for these demons of society to prey on their very pitals. Instead of using your in fluence to maintain good morals, jood society, good government md low taxes, you are sowing the leeds of moral and physical cor ruption broadcast over the land, md putting unnecessary burdens m our tax-payers in order to naintain the courts, and to feed he paupers, the vagrants and jther parasites you are breeding md scattering around. You. lay plans to get dishonest gain. Through your influence, you have •aused our sister town to become poor and blind, and naked and •annot see her nakedness. She :ias fallen from her dignity and is .lestined to become the habitation of many an unclean and hateful oird. Even now, we hear that her people are congratulating them selves on account of the tax that will be derived from your soul lestroying traffic, and because of the opportunity they will have to pasture their stock on the filthy refuse of your business. They say hat none of your stronger broth >vill be sold there, but greater is [he shame on them. They are anxious for the tax on your vile liquors, and they are willing to feed their hogs on your slops, but they have 110 sympathy or pity for those whose lives will be blighted and destroyed by the deadly stuff pou are preparing to send out into other communities. But in the language of the Bible, let us say to you. Walnut Coveans, "l>e not deceived, God is not mocked, for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap." Doubtless the file stuff you are preparing to send out into other communities tvill wreck many a young life, and lestroy the peace of many a home. But rest assured that the influence of these deadly things, like a loonierang or deadly missile, will return a«ain and pierce your own souls. Already, it has been deci led, and by competent judge* and luthority, that hogs fed on the lecaying slops from distilleries do lot make healthful meat or food, ind that such flesh is far less valuable than that made by feed ng the pure sweet grain just as it ! alls from the hand of nature. If hen by feeding your hogs con aminated food, or by sending out ituff to corrupt the morals and lestroy the health of your fellow oeings, you cause any mental, noral or physical malady to seize rou, or any of your so-called loved ones lie sure that you lay the sin it your own door. Now, under stand that we are not speaking of my one, personally. We' have been only personifying, or giving to strong drink and the liquor traffic, the attributes of a person. But God pity the person with such attributes. It is true that we spoke of the Walnut Coveans, but mly because they were incident illy called up by our subject. Mr. Editor, we are sorry that ;he condition of things in old Stokes is such as to make it neces inry for any one to speak of these natters, but just as the matter now tands. we think it is time for our good people to speak out. And we are glad to know that our dear old county has some good and no ble women who have correct ideas as to what it takes to con stitute true, manhood, and tnie womanhood, and who have the moral courage to come forward in a public war, and speak a word in defense of virtue, justice and right. In the Reporter issued Feb ruary 4, "S. S. Teacher" come down on the right key, and we trust that she will come again and keep the music going. D(Xi KILLER. "Friend" Submits A Few Remarks In Regard To "William's" Article. Mr. Editor : Please allow me a littls room in your highly appreciated paper for a few word# iu regard to William's dance at Swinging Limb. I am surprised to haar of William, that prominent man that everybody knows. We have some Williams in our section, but don't think they are as prominent men as Swinging Limb William. He is a good boy. I know he is all right. Now, William, I see you are no respector of persons and that, is one good thing. I see, Billey. you have cordially invited all to your dance. The good book tells us that when we make a feast to call not our near kinsman, nor our rich neighbor, but to call the poor and the maimed and the halt and the blind. Now, William I noticed you invited S. S. T.- and Kitty to your dance. Surely you haven't read the good book much. It says it is better for a man that a millstone were hanged about his ' neck and he be cast into the sea than for him to offend one of ttie' Lord's little ones. Now, William, me or yon would have a tight scuffle in the sea with a millstone j swinging to our necks. We would be proud to call on that poor. 1 humped man and. Bachey you • spoke about, and I know you: would be glad to strike hands with 1 that good old maid. Now, William,! I think you are on a pretty good trail of heaven, but will quote a ' few verses of Scripture to you J The Lord is not slack concerning his promises, as some men count slackness, but is long suffering to | us, and not willing that any should perish but that all should come to repentance. But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the; night in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise and the elements shall melt with fervent heat. The earth also and the works that are therein shall 1 be burned pp. Seeing that all these things 1 shall be dissolved, what manner of persons ought ye to lie in all holy ' conversation and godliness. Now,' William, the Lord loves you. and if you will study these three verses of Scripture I think you will go to heaven if you live. Now. William, don't try to offend S. S. T. in none of her good work for this world is full of foolish and hurtful lusts that drown men in de-! struction, and if it were not for what little good there is going on ' in this world you and myself' would have been cut off long ago and would have been trying the realities of another world. So try to help S. S. T. instead of trying to discourage her. FRIEND. HOW'S THIS ? We offer One Hundred Dollars Reward for any case of Catarrh that cannot be cured by Hall's Catarrh Cure. F. J.
