THE ELECTION

nettle stalks, well dried and shorn of their leaves.
It thus appears that the Germans are reverting to
the old practice of making linen with nettle fibre.
In the sixteenth century Oliver de Serres, lord of
the Pradel in Vivarais, mentioned the use of net
tle for the making of linen in a curious book of
was used in the late Eighteenth Century for the
same purpose at Angers, in the Dauphine, and in
Tiflnpiipdnr. Until thp Rnphp nut rf Viig nopOBcihr

the wayside, the old practice had been practically
forgotten.
The result of the election in Pitt county Tues
- day ought to be gratifying to every citizen for it
shows conclusively that the people still have con
fidence in the way Democrats manage affairs. The
voters spoke at the polls in a way not to be misun
derstood and that they desired no change. The of
ficers elect will take office on Jhe first Monday in
December and they wlil enter upon their duties
t t very best of the entire county.
In North Carolina, as was to be expected, the
Democrats rolled up a handsome majoritv and re
turned to the senate of the United States, Hon. F
M. Simmons and the probability is elected all ten
congressmen. It would have indeed been a cal
amity to the state if Snator Simmons had failed
ui i -election ior no man m that august body
wields more influence with both parties, and no
man has never renrpspntpH fVn'o
did more for the folks back home The citizens of !
"1C LC e to ue congratulated upon his re-election
for another term of six years to the upper na
tional house.
In the nation thp rpti

w -i6 next house would be Republican i
.,,1? eith,er party controlled the senate iti
Yulu ue uy a ciose margin. If the Republicans
do get control of the house and senate it will work
bad for the country when at the head of the na
tion they have placed a man whose every act since
he became president has been for the betterment
of mankind and the safety of Democracy. While
the Democrats may be defeated in the national
?wti.a ndusenae' history will not erase the fact
that they have done things, performed acts that
have arrested the attention of the entire world.
,ivr .America today Belgium, and France
would be m a sadder plight than they are. Amer
ica with Wilson as its leader came to the rescue
and today on f oreign soil over two million Amer
icans are fighting with the Allies for the destruc-!
tion of autocracy and the establishment of peace
and accord throughout all the earth. America
is the Good Samaritan that is binding up the i
wounds of bleeding France and Belgium and giv-!
i tT e utner nations sutlermg from the
cruel hand of a Kaiser and the hellish principles
he stands for. p
