ward declaration, and it represents
accurately the attitude of what is
known as the Cleveland Democracy
in the State of New York. How
does it bear on Judge Parker's pos
ition in the past ! Here is his de
fiuitiou of that position as he him
self has written it down.
My Dear Dan forth: It was en
tirely right for you to bring to ray I
attention the question which the
sincere friends of Mr. Bryan arc
pressing upon you. I can say to
you lrankly and sincerely that yon
can assure them that I voted for
the last national nominees of the
Democratic party, as I have voted
tor all the regular Democratic nom
inees since I , had a vote. Yours
very sincerely, Alton B. Parker.
Sept. 22, 1S97.
It is understood also that Parker
voted for Bryan again in 1900. In
fact he said nothing to indicate
that he was not still faithful to
Bryan and silver till he sent his
telegram to the St. Louis conven
tion, after he had been nominated.
If Mr. Goodyear's position is man
ly aud straightforward before he
received a nomination, if he was
right from a Democratic point of
view in bolting Biyan iu 1896 and
1900, what is to be said of Parker's
acts in those years and of his con
duct this year ! Can Goodyear be
praised without rebuking Parker ?
Would Parker, after Goodyear's
statement, favor his nomination as
the Democratic candidate for Gov
ernor? It u6t, why not!"

is built like a duck, but when it
strikes him, Ave will take to the

Our Davie Democratic friends
believe strongly in the saying
"That he who tights and runs
away, Will live to fight another
day."
DO YOU WANT A CHANGE!
Democratic campaign managers
and orators are trying to convince
the voters of the nation that tho
time is ripe for a "change." Every
petty grievance against the party
in power is "magnified aud every
possible bugaboo concerning future
developments is raised and waived
in an effort to make the people be
lieve that their interests aud their
welfare will be best subserved by
Republican policies
Democratic. The
Democratic party completed a four
years' term of power in 1S90 and it
may interest the voter, Avho is
thinking the country needs a
"change," to contrast the bnsiuess
of the nation in 1896 and that ot
1901. The figures quoted are for
the fiscal year, ending June oOth,
1901.
Merchandise exports in 189G
weie $3S2,000,000 as against $1,

IiJI 125,000 IN WAGES.
Ilumestead Work roks the Three
Week KecortL
Pittsburg, Pa., Aug, 13.
Over $125,000 was paid out in
wages today to the employees of
the Homestead Steel Works aud
Howard Axle Works of the Car
negie Steel Co., at Homestead, Pa.,
for three weeks' work. This is
the largest amount of money paid
out for wages for a similar period
iu years.
All the. mills at Homestead ex
cepting two, are running full, day
and night.
It strikes us that the above lit
tle clipping indicates prosperity
among these laborers; yet our
Democratic friends are laboring
hard to get up a calamity wail.
Our people are generally in fine
shape and prosperous, and the
calamity wallers will find it hard
to convince them to the contrary.
Let well enough alone.

The Democrats are clamoring for
'a change." They ask theA'oters
to change a certainty tor for an uncertainty.
Mr. Bryan does not believe that
the country is ready for a change,
but he is already planning to offer
one m 190S.
It is going to require something
more than specious pleading to in
tiuce tne American voter to taice a
leap in the dark in November. '
It must be remembered that
Judge Parker approved the Neje
York Democratic platform which
did not mention the gold standard.
The Democratic party was only
eight years behind on the money
question " It may be Avise ou the
tariff in another eight or twelve
years.
If you believe the Democrats are
in favor of the gold standard, call
a roll of the Democratic State C ju-
A entions that have so declared this
year.
The President has shown that he
is for the right. It makes no dif
ference to him on whose side is the
right. And the American people
hate a coward.
Col. Bryan says he Avill support
Judge Parker after September 30.
He figures, probably, that it will
take him that long to get a proper
edge on his hatchet.
Democratic managers express the
greatest confidence of the result of
the coming elections. Democratic
hopes always blossom until the first
light frost in November.
Chairman Taggart is filling
places on his executive committee
with the old line Democrats. He
is apparently guided more by Judge
Parker's telegram than by the dec
larations of his party's platform.
A man who is not well-known
himself must be judged by his ad
A'isers, If Judge Parker is elected
Piesident, Ave innst infer that his
associates aud advisers will be
David B. Hill and August Belmont.
It is a little strange that Mr. Lit
tleton, who placed Judge Parker in
nomination at St. Louis iu a speech
which was submitted in adArance.
to Judge Parker, had nothing to
say about his candidate's financial
views. It would haA e been a cour
ageous thing to have announced
them at that time, but it would
have undoubtedly resulted ' in the
nomination of another candidate.

SQURE DEALING OUR MOTTO.-
DOTS FROM IREDELL.
Mr. Thos. Richardson lost a colt
last week about five months old.
0ing to the. condition of the
roads the Masonic picnic was not
Aery largely attended by this com
munity. Wheat threshing is about o-er
in this section, aud Avbeat has turn
ed out a very fine crop. The bad
weather somewhat delayed thresh
ing. Polities seems to be very quiet
with us so far. The coolness is
due. I suppose, to the fact that all
the political sentiment is practical
ly united in this community.
Mr. John Harp, near here, killed
a blue crane last week which meas
ured six feet and two inches, from
tip to tip, and five feet eight inches
high . Wasn't it a large bird ?
Last Sunday Avas the annual pro
tracted meeting at Bear Creek,and a
few from this neighborhood attend
ed and were blest with a shower
from above before reaching home.
The annual protracted meeting
at Rock Springs embraces the 4th
Sunday. The members and com
munity have made arrangements to
have the church painted by that
time.
We haA-e had plenty of rain this
summer, which was good for up
land corn, which is the best in this
section it has been in many years.
There have been some very heavy
rains in some localities, but the re
ports of hail have been very light.
The all-absorbing topic which
seems to interest all in this section
at present, is the -"good" roads
between here and Mockaville. The
public road from Dr. Cains via the
Burnt TaA'ern, down to Holman's
Cross Roads, in many places, is im
passible. Iu some places there are
stakes stuck up in the mud to warn
the waffons of the danger, and flag

pecially for that purpose. How is
this for good roads? Why is this
the case? Well, it is because the
roads rere neglected too long and
were not Avorked when they should
have been, and were Avorked in the
midst of all the recent rains while
the holes in the roads, which should
have been filled up in the spring,
or early summer, were full of water.
