In that article. I spoke of the i daughter, Mrs. J, L. Sheek, where county debt the Republicans had paid off' he had been living since his illness, since Dec. 1st, 1896, and alluded to it as a : Several years ago Dr. Kimbrough Democratic debt I also spoke of the man- suffered a slight stroke of paralysis, ufacturing plants in Davie county which and although able to attend to his had been established, but I did not say r, Dractice un until about three that the county Republican admmistra- j hg fc had nQt been we,L Sh.ce that time he had been gradu- The Record will publish the obitu ary notices of the fellows who are trying so hard to bury it, but they will be charged for at our regular rates. We want a good, live agent for The Record at every postoffice in Davie County. A good commission will be paid to the right man. Write us for particulars. Every man who is interested in his home county of Davie should take The Record. Its mission is to help build up the county and advertise its advantages to the outside world. We want the co-operation of our subscribers. Without their help no paper can be a success. We are stri ving to help you in every way pos sible, and would appreciate any help you give us in the way of subscript ions, news items and advice. We trust that the few subscribers of ours who got mad and had their papers stopped will not worry their neighbors by borrowing their copy. Since our last issue we have lost one subscriber and put a half dozen new ones on our books. "Truth crushed to earth will rise again." It will take a bigger boycott on a larger scale than yet tried,- to cause the publica tion of The Record to cease. The Hammer. If you must use a hammer, use as fvniall a one as you possible can and try the same on your own head. If there is ever room for complaint, and an apparent occasion to knock same one or something, don't do it. 1 nave it to the other fellow, and let him get the brunt of the mistake. A man who minds his own affairs and keeps his mouth closed is always held in higher esteem than the man who knocks, even though there were oc casion for dissatisfaction. If you can ever futher your busi ness or social interests by knocking, and execute that lowly trick with out trapping beneath our feet one of the most sacred assets that man hap been endowed with a reputation and, if you have on pride in the man ner in which you conduct yourself, and care not for the respect of your friends, and if you are unable to ob serve the obnixiousness of onother man's knocking, then go right ahead and knock, but remember, that what you have gained, by giving vent to your feelings in that emotional state, is infinitely small when compared to the almost irreparable besmirchment of your character and reputation. Every time you knock you deal your self a solar-plexus blow, that, sooner or later will cause you to take the court. And, to my mind, the most eflectual antagonist of this inherent disease of knocking, is, that a thoro ugh bred gentleman will seldom knock. Therefore, it is good advice for all of us to pretend to be true gentlemen, and play the role to the best of our laility, whether we are one in reality or not. Orange & Blue. Advance News. The people in this section are about through with their work. There has been a great deal of hunting going on through Thanks giving. The birds have greased their joints and are getting ready for moving. Mrs. Mary Thorn pson has been sick for a long time, and out of the school room, but is qow back again. Miss Lola Ellis who is going to school at Clemmons spent ThanksgK ving at her home near Advance. Miss Beatrice Thompson spent Thanksgiving with her father in Yadkin College. There wa a nice offering made up for the Children's home at Winston Salem at the M. E. church at Ad vance. -W tion was even indirectly respensible for their erection, but I did say that a Demd ciatic debt of about thirty thousand dol lars had been paid off bv them. It mat- trs not that Remiblicans voted for these bonds for it was a debt made while the Democrats were in chartfe of the county, and it is well known by all men that all debts made and contracted by the party in power in coudty, state and nation, are chargeable to the barty in control Had I been of voting age when these bonds were voted upon, I should have voted for them, believing that I was discharging a public duty in so doing. The Herald of November 18th, ten days after the elec tion, devotes a column in its paper to a criticism of my article, and says that the writer of the article and nobody else be lieves that Republican rule was respon sible for the advent of these industries in Davie. Now I am not going to try to say what a Democrat believes, but most of us are aware that most of the manufactur ing developments in the South has come since the election of William McKinley, Republican, and we have as much right to claim credit for the prosperity which has come to this entire country under National Republican rule, as the Demo crats have for claiming all the good things in North Carolina from sunshine to show ers, good crops and high prices for a State Democratic administration, for everybody knows that all these blessings have come to our people in spite of a Democratic ad ministration in our State. The Herald's amanuensis also criticises what I had to say about local self-government, in con nection with the issue of bonds for good roads, etc. Now. this question of build ing macadam roads is a" very different proposition to building a court house and jail, and lam of the opinion that the com missioners have no right to issue bonds for good roads unless the question be first voted upon by the people, but I . wish to inform the unknown writer that the " Su preme Court has decided that county commissioners can build court houses and jails without a vote of the people. Now since our Davie county Democratic friends have for the past ten weeks been dream ing dreams, seeing visions and having nightmares over the new court house and jail, and the election returns have not dispelled their fears and relieved their pains. I will give them some unprinted history. If the unknown writer in the Herald will go to the Clerk's office and ex amine the records he will find that at the fall term of court in 1902, Judge Walter Neal, a Democratic judge, had the board of county commissioners presented by the grand jury for not building a court house and jail. Now, what does the unknown writer think of that? Now, I will tell him a little more unpublished history. Some of the leading Democrats in the county have for years been advocating these buildings, and the Republicans hesitated to saddle another debt on the people and increase the tax burdens until the old debt was paid. The court hoose and jail here been built, and every citizen of the county is proud of them. Then why not let the subject ret until 1912? The peo pl3 of Davie county have endorsed . what the Republicans have done. Let's do some more building in Davie and Mocks ville and quit finding fault with officers for doing their duty; Now if the unknown writer wants to have a joint discussion in the court house, he can get it. I shall de fend my county as long as it deserves de fending and no longer. There was enough misrepresentation of Republicans coming from the same unseen writer during the campaign for him to either quit, or throw off his mask, and let the people see what kind of an animule he is. Republicans are too busy preparing their stomachs for soup and other cheap diets to bother a bout things that cannot help the country. The great fight against the high cost of living made by our Democratic friends, means, if they carry out their policy and promises, lower prices for the farmers, producers, and a corresponding reduction in wages paid to the laboring men of this country. Possibly the unknown and un seen writer will deny this. In a later ar ticle, I will discuss the railroad bonds, etc. E. H.MORRIS. Mocksville, N. C, Nov. 23. 1910. . An Editor Sentenced to Jail. F. D.
