Ohe of the fittest monuments
to tna enterprise of our people
and one of the most needed
improvements in the county is
the double-track irpn bridge
spanning the Yadkin and con
necting Wilkesboro with the
dep )t. Those who have assis
ted in this matter are the ones
deserving the credit. The
Winston Republican leaves a

this matter. We give below a

Democrats ia a llole.
As a general thing the Re-
publicans depend
upon some
mistake of the Democrats
for
success and they are generally
successful. At t the last elec
tion the Domocrats gained a ,
noble victory upon the issue of
tariff reform and the force bill.
It has taken gigantic labor for
a quarter of a century for the
Democrats to get the Republi-
cans on a run on tne tnir ques
tion, and now in the moment of
sue ;ess they are abandoning the
isst e and replacing it with one
which will make Democratic
defeat sure, that is Free Coin-
Th eastern States do not de
sire additional legislation con
cern ling the currency. A quar
ter of a ..century of Repub
lican closs legeslation has
placed the principal part of the
currency in those ; States, and
they now have all the , money
they need. By this same class
legislation the currency has
been gradually dreaned from
the! South until we are .now

For a quarter of a.

century and more the Demo-j
cra'ts have manfully fought to
remedy the lexisting evil of
class legislation, so v. that the
currency and vealth of the
litt
and . equalize themselves in
every and all sections.' This
having been accomplished any
additional legislation upon the
money question could bo accom
plished with more ease and
better judgment. But when
right at the point of success,
the Democrats are about ot a
bandon the labor of years.
? This is not however thei work
of the older school of Democra
cy, it is the work of the young
er school stimulated by a holy
fear of the Farmers' Allance
movement'. It is an unfortunate
hole we are falling into and
will defeat for an additional
quarter of a century '. the good
work and noble aims of Demo
cracy as well as whatever of
good there is in the Allance
movement. By a little dis
cretion the benefits to be deriv
ed from the success of both
Democracy and the Alhnce
could have been accomplished
in a short time. But it is time
to stop and act with judgment.

Mathls Sentenced.
On Thursday of last week
Tobe Mathis. convicted of the
murder of Thomas Henderson,
was brought into court to re
cieve the Sentence j of death.
The Judge with some feeling
remarks sentenced the unf or?
tunate man to be nanged on
Wednesday, the 22nd of April
1891, about 3 weeks earlier than
at first contemplated. The
attorneys for defence took an
appeal and the case will be re
viewed by the Supreme Court.
Whatever be the decision of the
Supreme Court, Mathis will
not hang on the day mentioned
as the Supreme Court opinion
will not be rendered in time
$150 Damages.
The case of the Town of
Wilkesboro against I. S. Call
elicited a great deal of interest.
It was concerning tho matter
where tho town authoreties
condemed the right of way and
built a street over Calls land to
the new iron bridge. Commit
tee of appraisers were appointed
at the time and reported $145
damage in favor of Call. Call
appealed to the superior court.
The case came up Thursday,
foccupying the entire day, and
h was stoutly fought on both sides
Dula, Barber, Greene & Finley
appearing for Call, and Cranor
and Furches for the town.
The town claimed that Call was
not entitled to damage because
the building of the street had
benefited him much more than
he was injured. Call claimed
otherwise. The Jury after re-
maimng a snort wnue returnea
a verdict of $150 in favor .'of
Call. The costs and damages
will cost the town over $200. j

"All's well that ends well,"
and the prolonged struggle in
Illinois for the election of U. S.
Senator resulted on the 11th
inst in the election of Qen.
Palmer, Democrat. This was
accomplished on the 154th
ballot by two of the F. M. B.
A. men, Moore and Cockrell,
voting with the 101 Democrats
for Palmer.
The eighth, our Congression
al district, by act of the last
Legislature is composed of the
counties of Alleghany, Ashe,
Watauga, Mitchell, Burke,
Caldwell, Cleveland, Gaston,
Alexander, Wilkes, Forsyth,

from the eighth and placed in
the seventh, and Mitchell, Surry

Physical culture! What is physical
culture? The present aim and the certain
results of this new "fad" include the
attainment of good health and a fine
form; and a fine form outranks a pretty
face in the popular estimate of physical
beauty. Who Is not willing to make
some effort for such a desirable attain
ment? It is not so difficult, after all. -If
you only know how; and if you want to
know how, you may learn from the
Aprial number of Dcmorest'a Family
Magasine, which contains a splendid
article on "physical Culture," by Prof.
E" B. Warman, A. M., giving a course
of exercises, profusely illustrated, which
will help everybody man, woman or
child-to acquire a graceful, supple form
an, 4 witnout going to a gymnasium, or
even spending a cent for apparatus.
And this is not the only attraction of
this excellent number of this excellent
magazine: "The Land of Our Next Neigh

ingoRoom," "IIow Art, Students Live in New
York," "Grotesque Ways of Decorating
Easter Eggs," "Kite-Flying" (for the

ral capital stories, a fine article on
"Thlnnness. Its Causes and Cure," by
Susanna W. Dodds, M. D., are a few of
Its other feature, and there are near ley
three hundred illustrations, includiug
a fullpage water-color Easter card. As
