Dear John, forgive me for faulting this sorrow, but I could nut live, aud I could uot leave ourrhil dreu. I have worried so much I fear insanity, and 1 could uot leave the cbildreu."

A Luigle, Foi.UiWiNU tbe article io last ' week's Journal from rouuty Chair man Kedwine regartlttiK tbe ques tion of having an early primary, (he reporter went forth to talk with the folks on this subject. It proved to be a live wire aud moat every body was willing to talk. The question of primaries and candi dates lies pretty rlta to tbe hearts of the people. After tbe thing is over one year, everybody lies migb ty quiet till the bird begin to sing in the spring of tbe second year. Theu the sopirants begin to nose siotiinl, each anxious that l.o co u tietitor shall get the start of him. Vt hat is usually called politics can vet as dry as dust in this county and then break out when the next time comes with all the old time effulgence. If some of tbe boys on the anxious seat start out a little early some time, it doesn't make auy difference, for the people are not going to pav much attention no av, till they K't food and reatly. "Yor may quote tne as saving," said Mr. K. A. Morrow, "that 1 believe that an early primary is not the thing. What we need is a de cent primary, at the right time, conducted in the right way. lie form in the system is of more iiu portance than any mere question of when it shall be held, t list, iiq body should be allowed to vote iu a primary who cannot vote iu the election. Next, the people are tired of being bullyragged and hounded after by candidates ami hired work ers. The people of Uuiou county have sense enough to vote for shorn they want without having half a do.eu men at each voting plitce to drug them around and be devil tlieui hIhiiU whom they shall vote for. The polling place ought to lie fenced oil', and uohody be allowed In except tbe judges and the man who is voting, l'ut good, honest men in as poll holders and let them have charge of the tickets. Then let every in mi go up and vote for bis choice without half a d07.cn meu switiL'iiiK tu bis coat tails. If a voter cau't read be has only to go up and ask the judges for the ticket that he wants. The people have become disgusted aud tired of the way things have been carried on in our primaries. They want a change, and no mere change of date will reach the desired eud. A primal y in May would lie us un seasonable as a watermeluu at Christmas. The people enjoy the primary and the canvass. They want it when they can go, not in May or June when everybody is busy on the farm. Watermelon time is the time for primaries. Iet it lie at the right time, and be de cent, and free from tbe nuisances that have been tucked oil it," ' Tub next man met was 'Squire M. L. Kl'w, who is a candidate for clerk of the court. "I favor the early primary idea," he said. "I have talked with people from all parts of the county and find that the idea is favorably received. It will do away with all the trouble and bother that the candidates put the people to at the school break ing, protracted meeting, and sum nier gatherings of all kinds." Hkpr khkntati v k C. N.

The nominees will tie elected and the people ooght to know before the nominations are made what the candidates stand for. A canvass after the nominal ions are made is not worth anything. If we had a canvass before the primary is held tbe people would turn out We would hsve the biggest crowd yon ever saw." mm Mk. J. F. Imjktkb: "I don't care much about when it comes, but I guess the regular time is the best. We want the candidates to think heap of us ss long as possible. And we are willing to shake bands with 1 bets tnd smoke their cigars. We drop o il of the tbiug just as soon as the primary is held, and so we want to be the pumpkins as long as tossible. ' "I AX not a politician or a can dldate," said Mr. M. C. Long, "but I think that as tlie candidates have begun so soon we bad better hsve the primary as soon as possible aud be done with it" mm Mr. Sanfokd Smith of Lanes Creek: "Farmers oouldu't and wouldn't turn out to a primary in May. We eujoy primaries but want them in the leisure time." 'Svt iRE B. F. Parkku of lanes Creek: "The primary ought to he held almut laying by time. It might suit the towu people earlier, but uot the farmers." Kvkkvbody has heard the old saying that it requires line upon line and precept upon precept to get the public to understand any question. All of us have to have things hammered iuto our heads. JuiIko lieunett has a letter iu the last issue of the adesboro Mes senger sddreNsed to farmers, aud winds it up as follows: "I under stand full well that the clients whom I am addressing kuow more alsuit the subject tbau I do, but it is uecessary to fatigue their atten tion iu order to secure their co operation." This started a crowd down ou the street to telling stories alkiut Judge Bennett and hisquaiut sayings. One related about an in terview that Prof. Hams, late of Marshville, but who is now prac ticing law in Davidson couuty, had with tbe Judge some time ago. Mr. Sams went to W adesboro on business and some mutual friend carried bim around to Judge Ben nett's oflire to call. They found the Judge reading the morning paper, nnd he asked his visitors to be seated without looking up to see who they were.

AaheviUe l'ilieo, 17th At the Asheville passenger station yesterday afternoon was a young man named William llolden. His father, John llolden, a convicted murderer, had escaped the night before from Webster jail and was even then being pursued relentlessly by othcers. His mother was dead, slain by that father. And the young man himself was a raving lunatic as the result of that murder. The case presents a tragedy of circumstance. It was August loth last that Mrs. Rebecca llolden was killed at her home near Webster. There was no witness save the mur derer and the dead body of the wife of bis bosom, and no one to tell the tale that points to the gallows save the boy, now an imbecile. He told tbe circumstances that led the trial court to impose the death sentence on his father. It was thought the boy was a par ticipant in the crime, but this was not proven and he was released. By nature of less than normal mind, the fearful crime preyed on the boy's mind and bis reason lied and now he is in the hospital for the insane, an incurable lunatic. His father hides in the wild mountains and the mother rests in her grave. llolden was sentenced to be hung in December, but an appeal delayed execution of sentence. The trial was held in November and a reprieve was granted llolden until his case could be heard in tha Supreme Court where it is now pending. MMhuMla wad all nht. ynu lirl For a aMMl old whjI w h.

Tha axMrl nictit of burning a candle In a dined veaael, now ao fmuillar to every aebool- boy, la a very old one, aud tlie Influ ence of a blaat uf air on a furnace had been probably noticed from a very re mote ierlod. By anme It waa affirmed to be tha food of Are, while by other, tha unit belief waa embodied In the phraee, "Air nouriabea fire." Again, It waa long ago ohaerved that niter, s antistatics well known to tbe chemical philosopher, of the past, could produce Intense Ignition. It waa bence Inferred that, alnce niter posaeaaetl tbla property. It necessarily followed that tbe two anhatani'ea resembled each oth er In composition. According to Hub ert Iloyle, the air contained "volatile nltvr," while Lord Tlacon held that air contained s "volatile, crude and windy spirit," and thunder aud lightning were auppoeed to ba due to tlie prea ence of minute partklea of thia niter diffused through air.
