This is the fate of sufferers from Kidney trouble, as the disease is so insiduous that often people have
serious Kidney trouble without knowing the real cause of their illness, as diseased kidney3 allow the
impurities to stay in the system and attack the other
organs. This accounts fot the many different
symptoms of: Kidney Disease.

The most wonderful and remarka
ble contortionist in the newspa
per arena of North Carolina is oar
contemporary, the Charlotte
News. The snap judgment of the
legislature in enacting the Watt's
lawj the chartering of the Audu
bon bociety, without a dozen farm
ers connected with it and very
few land owners, on whose soil the
birds live, hence the owners of the
birds, being unconsnlted as to
their wishes in the least, but who
must submjt to the "majesty" of
the law, prohibitive .and compul
sory measures among a people
roared in the cradle of libertv-r-
by the declaration of independ
euce.. nurtured by a constitution
"v.-
of freedom and popular sover
eiguty, are all not submitted, to
quietly as giant strokes at the
-rtrviLxf rurannal-J iliarfrjaiw:
Democracy, but upheld, endorsed
aud urged to be enforced, coerced,
by a paper trying to have the pub
he to understand it to be a bea
con light of Democracy towering
upon the very crest of the loft
eminence. We would prefer not
to make such remarks about a
neighbor, but as we see it, the er
ror of its way calls for examina
tion, and the lack of genuine de
mocracy in democratic ranks as
indicated above and upheld by
our brother, is doing such great
injury, the political party of such
name is becoming a mere farce,
a small consequence in propor
tion to that of the people's gener
al welfare and the cause of public
rights, that we feel some gentle
rebuff is justifiable. Another
reason we dislike to disagree with
our neighbor, even in the most
friendly way, is, he does not tote
fair. Ho unkindly and without
warrant, stated we presumably
wanted toleration , for the distil
ler and the -salooni . We correct
ed this, but it was ignored. He
presumed again as to our defini
tion of Democracy. BoUi times
' wrong, both, times corrected by us
and both times ignored by the
Newt-. To us, tb)is is very dis
i courteous treatment, really caus
ing some surprise; Democracy
is good, Democracy is the very
best form of government possible,
but the great difficulty is to get
the administrators, from the most
: secluded subject to the highest
servant to keep in the harness,
and on the other hand the
most corrupt go v mmeut
possible is a corrupt democracy,
dishonest, reckless and careless
administration with disinterested
and disheartened supporters. Wo
need a great Democratic revival or
something' to tako. its place, and
our neighbor is doing yeoman ser
vice in the preparations.

It's too risky to wait
