The All-Home Democrat For some time back we have besn anxious to give our sub scribers an all-home print paper. Any change in a newspaper with the force which, at present prices is all most editors can afford, in volves much extra labor and en tails more troublesome work than can possibly be realized by any one who has never had experi ence. We hope to "catch up" fully this week, and we will do our best to give our subscribers the very best paper that our sup port enables us to give them. What it will be depends, of course, verv largely on what the people of Hickory and the sur rounding country do for us. What a newspaper is depends al ways, in a very large meas-ire, on what the people really want it to be. If they will do their part, we will endeavor to do ours. A Republican Panic This is strange news that we j hear. Banks closing, trust com panies going to the wall a fall in the price of cotton and a general stagnation in cotten manufac tures. Can it be possible? Is it really true that the Republican Party, the onjjy true party of prosperi ty, is in power while these things take place? There must be some mistake about it. We thought the Democratic Party was the party of souo houses, five cent cotton and general calamity. At any rate tnat's what the Repub licah campaign orators told us all ever the country. Surelv Grover Cleveland must have slipped into the White House again; for, as all the world knows, Cleveland was the spec ial agent of financial disaster,en dowed with such malign powers that he actually spread ruin over Europe, Australia and the re motest isles of the sea. Sad to say, we are living, too, under the highest protective tar iff that the intelligent electorate of this free country ever voted upon themselves in obedience to the Republican fiot that we must get rid of Democratic free trade or die. By all means let us convene Congress and make the tariff higher. That's the trouble. The way to get rich is to increase taxes. It is up to the Republican party to do some explaining. In 1894, the Democrats in vain told the people that national administra tions did not bring on, or pre vent panics; that panics were likely to come under any and all administrations. But the Re publican orators and newspaper editors denied this so bitterly than many of them wound up by believing their own denials. Now according to the express admissions of Republican author ity panics can be brought on or prevented by the party in pow er. This panic, therefore, must be charged to their own in ex cusable negligence or wilful act. In any event the result is the same. Let us apply their reme dy—turn out the party in power. Missionary rally at Lenoir Col lege Sunday, November the thir teenth. j Mr. John Marshall Cashes ' Forged Check.. \ Messrs. Gilmer, of Hotel Ire deli, Statesville, and Marshall, of the Marshall House, Hickory, | can lament in chorus; for each i has lost the neat sum o * $75.00 by a part/ calling himself R. W. Harris, and representing himself to be traveling for the St. Louis Glass Co., a perfectly reliable and well-known firm. In both cases, Harris called for his mail as soon as he Beached the hotel. He received a letter, which con tained a check for the above amount. The letter was written on the firm stationery, had the firm's name stamped with rub ber stamp and the check wa signed in ink "B. W. Dursiug. treasurer." It is the custom of our hotel managers to sign these checks for the traveling men. and Mr. Marshall did so vithout the slightest uneasiness, just as Mr. Gilmer did. Then, when the checks were sent in to the firm, they were returned, with the announcement that so such j man as R. W. Harris did any ! business with them or for them, | but that some rascal had been ! sending in checks which he had no right to have. The loss of $75.00 is no small matter to men who make as lit tle as our hotel-keepers, in these times of high prices, and Messrs. Marshall and Gilmer have the sympathy or their friends. It is to be hoped the man will be caught and punished. He cer tainly had his nerve with him to work his little grame '->n two men living in towns no Ttaar to- 1 jrether and knowing each other ' so well.

THt CHILDREN LIKE It KENNEDY'S LAXATIVE COUGH SYRUP A Suggestion From a Recent Visitor in Hickory Editor Democrat: On leaving Mome recently I neglected to put a Bible in my suit case, so last Saturday night I visited a num ber of the handsome stores in Hickory and endeavored to buy one. My attempts were fruit less. At the last store visited I asked the merchant if he could tell me where I would likely find a Bible, and he said that he could not, and that he felt very sure I would not find one in a store in Hickory, but, he said, 'There may be one up at the church. *' A young man, of intelligent ap pearance, who was in one of the stores when I made my inquiry, wanted to know what a Biule was. Of course the remarks quoted were jocularly made, but the fact remains that I could not find a Bible in a Hickory store, there fore, I suggest that if any mer chant in Hickory has Bibles for sale he tell about it through the columns of the Democrat. A Visitor. FOLEYSIIONEMM for cfilidr&n; safe, sure. No opiate* ONLY NECESSARY TO TREAT THE STOMACH Claim of Central Figure in Recent Contro versy Is Novel. The now theory advanced by L. T. Cooper relative to the human stom ach has attracted such widespread attention that the public in citlea visited by the young man has been joined by many physicians in a dis cussion of his beliefs and medicines. Mr. Cooper says human health Is dependent almost entirely upon the stomach. He says that no dis ease can bo conquered without first alleviating all stomach disorders. He further says that most men and wom en of this generation are bal£-s!ck, owing to degenerate stomachs. And lastly, he claims that his New Dis ooveiy medicine will rejuvenate the human stomach in 99 days. Cooper has been traveling from | one" city to another, conducting in each what he calls a campaign of education. For the past year he has met the public in the larger cities of the country, and his success has been phenomenal. Thousands ot people have flocked to his headquar ters wherever he has gone, and the sale of his medicine has been beyond anything of the kind ever before witnessed. Possibly the most interesting fea ture of the attention this young man lias attracted is what his army of followers, whom he has converted to Ms beliefs through his medicines, have to say on the subject. The fol lowing statements are from two well known residents of Chicago and Bog ton, respectively, and the enthusiasm of these Is characteristic of Cooper's admirers generally. Mrs. H. B. Made, of 8801 State street, Chicago, says: "I have been suffering for 18 years from a com bination of stomach troubles, catarrh and constipation.

Then there was a dull head . ache, and my mind seemed to be i wandering continually. I could not eat, and what little solid food I did ' eat I could hot retain on my stomach. I tried every remedy I could think of, and also tried out a number of patent . medicines, but without any apparent result. It was through one of my friends that 1 heard of Cooper's prep aration, and 1 immediately decided • to try some of it. It is two weeks since I took my first dose of it, and I feel like a new woman. The head ache seems to have disappeared, and the pain In my stomach along with it. The medicine is worth its weight in gold, and I want to thank Mr. Cooper for what he has done for me." Mr. Edwin P. Morse, of 20 Oakley street, Dorchester, a suburb of Bos ton, says: "For three years I had not a well day. My stomach was la frightful shape; the mere thought ot food would nauseate me, and I really had a horror of anything to eat All solid food would cause me extreme indigestion, bleating and gas on my. stomach, and nothing tasted right, j Some time ago I got some of this Cooper's medicines, about which there is so much talk. I actually feel as well and strong ai a boy ever since the first bottle. Every sign of stomach trouble has disappeared, and I have a hearty appetite and eat three square meals; every thing seeins to taste good.
