, ' - We are glad to have so? many and
such explicit denials of the story of
lastfweek that the Waldensian colonists
is liurke county are on the eve of
breaking op and leaving- We have,
among other communications on the
Babject a letter from Rev. Bartb.
Soulier, the pastor of the colony, in
-which be says that he cannot imagine
how the report originated, and adds:
1. No one in the settlement except
Mr, John Meier who is not a Walden
sian has ever expressed any desire to
leave during the last mx months.
2. The Waldenses have never been
so happy and so hopeful about their
future material condition as they are
5t There is every probability that at
au early date some more families will
come from Italy and join these.
4. The Waldenses fully appreciate
all the kindnesses of their numerous
friends in this State aod elsewhere, and
respectfully beg them to believe that
" their earnest ambition is to become as
suuq as possible a self supporting peo
ple. We will not make any other ap
peal for material help except for our
churoh and school building fund.
This is surely very re-assuring. We
have earnestly desired to see these peo
ple get a foothold in North Carolina
and the letter of Pastor Soulier affords
the greatest encouragement that has
yet been given to the hope that thev
will.
It ought not be but perhaps is neces
sary to say that in the position t he Ob-
SERvek has taken, that it is too early to
extend the lease of the North Carolina
Railroad, and that the price offered for
it is not sufficient, it is moved by no
spirit of hostility or prejudice against
the Southern Railway Company. We
express again the hope than when the
lease is made it will be made to the
'Southern. The present management of
.... this great property is admirable. It is
" ' furnishing an unexceptionable train
service, and its whole policy, as far as
it hai Been developed, is broad aod en
- lightened. It has a decent respect for
the opinions of mankind and much has
been done, since the re-organization, to
commend the line to public favor. If
the Observer were hostile to it it would
not be seeking out an opportunity to
say these things, and whatever it may
have occasion to say in future upon the
merits of the lease question, these
things stand.
The supremacy in the pacing world
has not yet been fully established and
. . is lust now a subject of much interest.
The fact that John R. Gentry recently
went against Joe Patchen and beat
him, carrying a 2:00 minute gait to the
three-quarters pole, is still fresh in the
public mind, and since then Patchen
has 'beaten Robert J. in the fastest four-
heat race on record. The talk now is
that Gentry may go to Terre Haute
this week and try conclusions with
Robert J., who holds the championship
2:01i in September, 18i4. It has
been believed for several jears that the
lime is coming down to 2:00 m in ate?,
and it will very likely be done by some
one of the three great horses named in
Ih a paragraph. North Carolinians
would be delighted to see John R. Gen
try knock olf the minute and a half at
Terre Haute this week, with Robert J.
there and looking on.
The New York Herald says that a
formidable movement is on fyot to pro
cure the Democratic nomination next
year for Hon. Wm. Whitney; that
' President Cleveland is for him and that
ne can unite me Tactions in the party
in New York. If the ptrty sho Id go
to that State for its candidate next ye;r
it could certainly not do so well as to
nominate Mr. Whitney. He is a re
sourceful political, a very able man,
and is without enemies in his own or
ganization. There are many things
more improbable than that he wll be
the Democracy's stamlard-bearer in ,(JC
Senator Butler is entirely right. The
Liberty Bell, in its nip to "Atlanta

We copied, a few days ago, the tri
bute of the Marion Record to Judge
ArmQeld in putting him in nomination
for Governor. This gentleman enjoys
large, popularity throughout the State,
and well deserves his reputation as a
.man of extraordinary ability; but the
Observer has heard it rumored that he
-is a sound money man, and if that is a
fact, the fact by common consent,
Z among the free coiners, bars him.

Correspondence of the Observer,
Wasbtsgtoh. Aug, 3.Util the past
week or two it has been hard to set any
North Carolina Democrat to discuss the
governorship, It has not been for lack
of Interest on the subject or belief that j
the chance was not good for electing a
Democratic executive. On the contra
ry, there is much interest felt by all in
telligent Democrats, who come here in
the sum total and separate particulars
of the election of 1896. Bat there is
conservative feeling that it is better to
wait until nearer the time to make a
choice and a general disposition to have
the choice entirely subordinate to party
interests at the time it is made. Never
Lit the history of the State was there
such an entire absence of personal ism.
The late election seems to be admitted
all around as having broken the ground
for a fresh dispensation of Democracy.
"Old things have passed away," many
say. "iet us nave sometmngainerent.
As to leadership where is it 7 who is
in it: There are plenty or aetermin-
ed, enthusiastic Democrats. Bat they
are thinkinga great deal more of scotch
tog fusion and redeeming the State man
they are of the men who are to serve
the people. Yes. actually the visitors
here talk somewhat about selecting men
to carry out the will of the people rath
er than as formerly to serve the inter
ests of the "leaders." North Carolina
never had bosses thank God" and our
sturdy ancestors and the principle of
heredity. She did have self-styled lead
ers of the people. Now one hears much
less of tbat sort of thing, which IS a
hopetul sign. Of the persons mention
ed casually for Governor on the Demo
cratic side it cannot be said that one or
two or any other number is talked about
most. My list will therefore be alpha
betic. It includes Avery, Arm field,
Doughton, Carr, (J. S..) Crawford,
Glenn, Henderson, Holt, Jarvis, Mason,
Osborne, Overman, Ransom, Waddell

MB. DALE REPLIES
Would Like to Know What tbe Lexing
ton Correspondent Means By "Rather
Rank" The Let Alone Policy.
to tbe Editor of the Observer:
It occurs to me that the Lexington
correspondent of the Observer stands in
need of assistance himself in his helpless
etfo. t to convmce the public generally
that he has not got a very bad job on his
bands when he attempts to champion
the cause of Shemwell. Usually he is a
wonderful writer. Perhaps he has no
equal in North Carolina. Ah, such a
brilliant young man it is to be feared,
as nag oeen saia oi tne uev. fbvs
Dixon, he islike a candle burningout at
both ends. It would be well for Shem
well, perhaps, to see after his friend
and champion, before some ill befalls
him. Besides, it is hard to estimate
what the State of North Carolina would
lose, and even the United States, and
not over-drawing the imagination in
the least, I would say the world, should
this gallant knight suddenly collapse.
No, sir, I was not at all exci'ed while
in the presence of your correspoi dent
yet, to be truthful, I must confess that
I realized the fact that I was standing
in the shadow of a very great man;
vhich fact often makes an unpreten
tious mau like I am, and trv to be at all
times, feel like I am unworthy to be
so near such greatness.
I am hardly able to comprehend what
the correspondent means when he says.
'gets rather rank. Of course com
,nun folks like I am are unable to un
derstand its meaning. I suppose th
professor could explain matters so that
country folks can understand.
les. he seems to want to set up a
yell about something when reference is
made to my special friends encourag
ing me to get "ranker." Just now my
tntnd recurs to the "old saving" that it
U the hit dog that yelps. I suppose
that is ihe reason that the professor
seems to be so verv cross, it seems to
me that the principal reason for his ir
ritability may be caused for the reason
that I (iid not first consult him and get
hi.s pe-mission to have a say in this
rce-lriai case, and secondly, get con
sent and instructions what to say. Yes.
then the instructions would have made
me say that Dr. Robt. Payne was a man
seeking at all times the blood of the in
uocent: and that Shemwell was hi:
hounded and persecuted victim. Some
times I doubt, when he says, "my
friends should be ashamed, etc .
whether he is in a state of mind sufti
cient to let himself up as a judge to io-
siruct people what to say and how t
ct. I doubt it seriously. "Having
respect for the truth," did he say
Well, it makes me so tired to hear.him
speaK oi me xrum out perhaps it is a
nopeiui sign mat ne, a wanderer, is re
turning.
A cause shorn of all decency and jus
tice would be so apparent to everybody,
if some sort of predictions were uot s;i
up oy a complaint of injustice done to
the jury that passed upon the facts in
the Pay ne-hhetn well tragedy. If any
one is interested enough to make in
quiry in Lexington, it can be ascer
lained whether I retracted or not.
Let alone? Yes, I am of the opinion
that they, the correspondent and
his coajutors, are anxious to be let
alone.

to waste his valuable time reminding
the public to let me alone.

T notice." that . "Liberty : Bell" is to
start ; from Philadelphia, September
11th on Its way to Atlanta lor the ex
position. According to the published
programme, nine stops will be made be-
tween Philadelphia and : Atlanta, but
none of them are in North Carolina.
The bell will stop in Lynchburg. Va.,
and from there the route turns through
Tennessee, making stops at Bristol,
Knoxville and Chattanooga.
Whv is North Carolina thus ignored i
If there is anv State in the Union that
deserves to have tbe famous old bell of
Inrifnenditnee Hall nass throueh and
stop within its borders, it is North Caro
Una. it should not oniy pass tnrougii
North Carolina but it should by all
means stop at Charlotte in honor of the
Mecklenburg ueciaration 01 tnuepsoe-
ence. This great nistoncai tsvcu,
which occurred on May 20th, Io. was
not only tbe first Declaration of Inde
pendence on American soil but was more
than a year ahead of the Declaration
adopted by the ontinental Congress
over which this bell rang out its glad
notes of iov. its bold peals for liberty
and its ringing defiance to British ty-
rannv. Besides, the first oatlie 01 me
Revolution fought in the South, was at
Moore's Creek. N. C , and the last two
battles of the great struggle were at
King's Mountain and Guilford Court
House. Three of these great historic
noints. marking the daring beginning
and the glorious closing of the great
Revolutionary struggle, re on tne main
line of the Southern Railroad and on
the nearest route from Lynchburg to
Atlanta.
I ask again why is North Carolina,
which contains such historic polm.s of
the Revolution, and which made an
honorable record in that mighty c.nt.-s'.
for constitutional government, to be
thus ignored? I hope that the route
can yet be changed. At any rate we
should make the etfort. I trust that
Mecklenburg will take the lead now in
this matter as she did in 1775.
Yours very respectfully,
Marion Butleh.

CARD FROM MR MEIER.
The Waldenses Will Not fcLeave But the
Hosiery Mill Will be Removed It Is Mot
Paying at Taldese.
To the Editor of the Observer:
Please be so kind as to insert these
few lines in your esteemed paper in
justification to myself and the Wal
densians colony, as there seems to be a,,
misunderstanding about some facts per
taining tomyself and colony. I noticed
in your paper that the Waldensian
colony was about to break up. This is
not tbe case at all; they have come
here aod contracted for some land on
which they are settled, and have im
proved some of the land considerably.
They will all have cough grain and
fruits to carry them through till next
season, and, under the circumstances,
they have done remarkably well, and
none of them.haveany ideaof leaviDg un
til they give it another year's fair trial.
They are not the people to make a con
tract with some one, and throw it up at,
the first obstacle that comes in their
way. In regard to myself and my ho
siery plant, it is correct. I have tried
to move it away from the present
location on account of not having
enongh financial help to make it a good
success and a payable business for my
self, as well as for the Waldensians and
the surrounding country and of course
as a result I had to seek outside help
and consequently I have three very
good offers from neighboring towns in
a financial as well as In a material way,
and should I decide to move I will take
alone all those that have worked for me
here if they wish to come, and it is'quitc
likely that they will. It should, how
ever, be understood that they only leave
the colony for the season to earn money
to pay on thoir farms with. There is
quite a number of Waldensians that
are working out for that very reason,
and they would not leave their homes
here if it was not the necessity for them
to do so. Otherwise it would take quite
a number of year for them to pay oH
the dets they have taken upon t hem
selves. I will say this, that through th
hosiery mill thev have received from
October, '9-1, up to da'e over one thou
sand dollars salary. vhi:h my piy roll
'look shows up. I have done iind still
hi all I can to advance tlit-ir welf. r
financially as well as materially, as well
is mv own. and I can truthfully say
that I am tho worst olf to-dav of the
two. as everybody h!S helped them
while hut few have tried to help me
Hence I urn ob'isred to seek and accept
outside help.
Respectfully yours

From this he made an elegant talk, tell
ing of the trisls and persecutions of
the early reformers, and the progress
and advances made by those courageous
leaders. He gave a brief history of the
Reformed Church.
At 2 o'clock Rev. William E. Hay,
returned missionary to Japan, delivered
a fine missionary address, showing the
wonderful progress now being made is
establishing the Christian religion in
that far off land. . -
Lower Stone church is one of the
oldest in Rowan county. The walls
were built in 1795 of native rock, but
no one knows exactly where the rock
was obtained. The church was not
completed until 1812. There was a con
gregation at Lower Stone perhaps many
years prior to the erection of the build
ing. Tbe church record dates back to
1782, and farther back nothing is known
of the church. The building is almost
like Organ church, about two and one
half miles off, the centennial of which
church was celebrated last year. Of
these two churches it is said Lower
Stone is just large enough to place Or
gan inside, width, breadth and height.
Tradition has it that the congregations
of the ch. -.relies once worshiped to
gether, but were disrupted and then
were divided, a part building Organ, the
other Lwer Stone.
Organ had the start and the Lower
Stone people to out-do their neighbors
ouilt their church Urge enough to en
velop it. In this kind of spirit, wheth
er friendly ot unfriendly, the churches
were built. They stand .s monuments
to those heroic days which tried men's
souls.
Lower Stone church has had fifteen
preachers since 1782. During thes
years the church was unsupplied four
.een years. It is mother church of all
the Reformed churches in this section,
embracing Stanly, Cabarrus, Blowing
Rock in Watauga and other places
The centennial exercises comtrenced
Friday and were closed yesterday. The
occasion was of deep interest to tin
people of the Reform faith.

Its study for more than a bubdred years
It is one of their peculiar industries. Their
lives bave been devoted to it
Tbeir latest and greatest achievement Is
the Shaker Digestive Cordial it is not of
fered as a cure for all diseases, it does not
pretend to be, bat one disease it will cure,
and that Is indigestion,
it is so effective in curing those who use tbe
remedy that they are loud In their praises
of it and in eonseqaence a large demand
for the cordial has been created.
Bufferers who resort to its us have not
long to wait to see tbe result. Tbe effect is
almost immediate. Tbe fint dose usually
gives relief and if continued a permanent
core will follow.
It not only contains already digested
food, but it digests food as wtd, thus toning
up the general system. An interesting
pamphlet is now being Issued by the Shak

Dr. S. W. Tlump&on, Jackson
Springs, N. C:
My Dkar Doctor: It gives
me great pleasure to testify to
the excellence of "Jackson
Springs" water. I have been a
victim of dyspepsia for years,
and for the past two years it has
developed into a nervous form
of the disease which at -times
utterly unfitted me for business.
I had no appetite, and the little
food I ate did not digest. I was
advised by Dr. A. W. Knox to
go to Jackson Springs. In 3
days I had a good appetite and
could digest my food. I con
tinued to improve rapidly, gain
ing twelve pounds of flesh with
in two weeks, and returned to
my business feeling like a new
man.
Yours truly,
W. C. Strohach.
