FpiDAY, JULY 12th, 1912 Business And Politics One of tlio weeklies in its fi nancial column states that the present political situation is causing no anxiety disturbances there may be, but are largely per sonal. "The encouraging fea ture is that the dependence of business on political conditions is decreasing steadily" Time was when business felt a shock every time a presidential year come around and men expected conditions to be unstable but to day there is less attention paid to it than ever. Men go on in their life and leave the fighting to tho politicians and less and less do the people feel an inter est or let these things disturb them. It makes very little dif ference who is in power and the great catastrophes prophesied are no longer a bug bear to the people. Panics respect no party because all parties suffer from them. An era of prosperity leads to looseness in money matters mid later a stop is made. A sudden contraction of spending and speculation and the result is a panic. However all that is with us the common people. Panics are inado by the people when they have too much money and- it has come to easily. e are glad to nee the blame placed where it belongs. Formerly the business world have little confidence t ie people at large, today they know that the people can be tfe pended on to do what is right and the sober second thought of the common people is going to lead it right. This government is by the people' for the' people and it is going to do what is right. We ' are no mob to be led by demagogues to our own detriment, we are a think ing machine and we Amercians think. We'get excited sometim es but when we calm down, usually we do what is right and, we can "-depend On the citizen to do what is right. So business goes on. There are fights between leaders but the final vote is given by us. tye are "it" and lets use our com sense and presidents may go but we go on. It is the educating of the mass that is doing it. They say the American soldier is the best in the world , because he is no mere machine moved by others like" pawns on a chess board but is a thinker. We say that the American citizeiiiia . the best in the world because he thinks and does what is best. The general diffusion of learn ing the native independence of thought make him a power. This .is seen by the landslides one way or another in the politi cal world. when our party does something wrong, when it does not live up to its promises, the people take their affairs into their own hand and demand an acc6untng oft,, the stewardship and there is going to be one now. That ia v. tftyeasenbusiness freJsWerlrturry although it is said "foat one ol the greatest strug gles is on, , one ; that will cleave both parlies..' 'Business has per fect confidence ' in the people not in speculators and trusts but in the people lets not fail that trust. . '. What Makes Woman?

Ctiaran- : ,.' rt (M. i ( Farmers Institute It is hard to. estimate the agri cultural poslbilities of Madison County. While it is true that it is very rugged. and rough yet few counties ih our state are so fertile. What we need now is a genuine revival of farming inter est. Every farmer should farm not only to make a living but to make all the money he can Thero is no taint aboutthe dollar made -on the farm, its harvest. The farmer is the real producer of wealth. The farmer should take as much pride in the ap pearence of his farm as the artist does in the appearence of his painting. Ho should bo just as interested in turning off first class farm products as the manu facturer is in turning off high grade manufactured products. He should be just as proud of his herds of cattle, sheep and ect as the lawyer is of his pro fession. He should be just as ambitious to educate his children and to have modern homes and conveniences as the city man. What is the great essential to successful farming?- Its know- edge. The common Impression that just anybody can farm is erroneous. That when a man hasn't got sense enough to do anything else, he can farm, is a stander to one of the most honorable vocations of life. True anybody can dig the ground but knowledge only can tell you how to get the maximun results from your work. Are ... . i i.. you getting tne oest rcsui from ycur labors? Are you making two blades of grass grow where one formerly grew? Do you know all about farming, stock raising, gardening ana fruit growing? If you do not, why not attend the Farmers Ins titute in the county July 22 and 23, and get suggestions from tho experts sent out by the state to help you as well as confer with the other farmers of our county? You may not be in a position to apply all you learn it may not be wise for you to do so, b u t "provo all things and. hold fast to that which is cood." You will cct ideas from them that applied, will put more corn in your crib, bigger hogs in your pen and better apples in your or chard. These Institutes cost you nothing and you cant afford to miss them. The teachers of our countv are holding now a two weeks institute. The merchants have their as sociations, the bankers, the law yers, the doctors all have theirs and if they can benefit by an ex change of ideas, why can't the farmer. If you know all about farming yourself then should you not attend anyhow as a duty to your fellow man and give him the benefit of your vast know ledgeand information? Come any how. , Help Somebody Today. The world needs help all the time. ; There are a great many things that we can do that will make the world better. .The temptation is to wait un til something great comes to us and in waiting all of us let slip opportunities that may become great by growth. One of the easiest things to do is to help some one each day and there are many persons who need our help by comfort, by favors, done by aid in any way that comes to us. It is a good motto to have and a good resoraCib'n'fo make each day, to do some one a benefit in order that they may be bettered and perhaps pass it along. We sing the song with this re frain but do we act upon it and do we seek the opportunities and enjoy the priviliges that lie in our ways, vwany aneari is Help ed along in its way by some little act of ours and, the world made better and a life-brightened. See if you cannot help some one to day and helping, make the world better. SummercoidSare hard to get rid of, and frequently lead to asthma,' bron chitis, and hay fever.

Every one from the districts em braced by this school out did themselves to make that' day a success and it surely was a sue cess. The occasion was tUfc da dication of the new school build ing and early the people began to gather. . " Tables had been made out on the grounds where dinner was to ho served Mer. At 10:30 o'clock the people were called together to hear the singing and the addresses. There were four classes present and each one vied with the other to make the occaasion one to be re membered. After all the class es had been heard, lion. R. M. Sams began the meeting in his usual pleasant way and placed it on a high plane to which dur ing the day. He introduced the lion Jasper Ebbs who as usual filled every one with delight Mr. Ebbs with wyt and quip kept his audience in a good humor anefdrove hour the truths he so well knows how to enunciate. Mr Sams also introduced two more sneakers wno were not there but who arrived afterward. Hie hour for dinner had arri ved and the many persons found ample food and to spare. It was calculated that a thousand- per sons were present but the boun tiful provision was enough for double the number. Everybody was in a good humor and after dinner the classes again come to gether and sang after which Prof. Buckner was asked to in troduce Prof. Allen, who is con ducting the Institute at Marshall Prof. Allen felicitously began his address and then laid down some fundamental principles that underlie all good school work. Prof.. Allen spoke for some twenty five minutes and held tht audience well undor sway. After another song the editor spoke in the place of Hon. T. J. Murray regretting very much that Mr. Murray was not present to speak for himself and do what no one else can do, entertain and lead the audience to better things. , After another song Prof. Buck ner County Supt, was intro duced by Mr. Sams and for quite a while delighted the audience with a well delivered address, dwelling upon the merits of the people of Little Pine in building the house. After this address Mr. Ebbs again asked for the floor speaking about the need of benches for the school. Mr. George Wild of Big Pine spoke much to the point and sug gested that the outsiders give money for the bell. , After the contributions had been counted it was found that the audience had given $24.75 for this pur pose. The people of Little Pine and some friends from outsWe gave the lumber . and . the ; County School Hoard promised to have tbem.ma.de. About $50.00 was given for this. After all this the crowd .began to leave feeling that the day had been well 6pent and that Little: Pine had done itself proud in en tertaining and giving such a proof of patriotism and liberality. I The building of the the Little Pine district is a very fine build-1 ing, of three rooms , capable of seating we should judge about 200 pupils. With our law as it now is, this will likely be. suffi cient for a while. ' There are 327 pupils ' in the district. . : ," We wish to congratulate . the people' on their enterprise and enthusiasm and wish for them a most successful year.

Lost week we published an article about Murphy and in it was mentioned the fact that a civic betterment club had helped wonderfully. One person or two cannot do all things but quite a number who have clubbed to gather can do great things. Civic betterment could ba started by the ladies. We are sure should they take ahold of it, that our town could be cleaned up our yards beauti fied and paper, and trash could be kept from the streets. 'Cry in shame to us all. Mall Carrier! Will Fly.

It has peen the custom for the boys to leap on freight trains and ride and some of our boys Preston Ball, Arthur Cook, Major Lowe, and Henry Fortner got on a freight and rode to Craggy where they decided to get off. In doing this Major Lowe was seriously hurt, it being reported for a time that he had been kill ed Henry Fortner was badly bruised, and skinned up the oth ers escaped Lowe is in the Hospital at Ashe ville and is seri ously hurt, Time after time such accidents happen and still the young boys will not learn their lesson but go on swinging on the train. We are sorry this has happen ed but would impress upon all the dangerousnesa of doing these things, George L. Illgble, Manton, Mich, used Foley Kidney Pills for kidney and bladder trouble.

Quite a crowd was present and enjoyed the display which lasted for over arid hour.
