CLYDE H-HOiT, Er. iNEFKcp i WEDNESDAY, JULY 23, 1902. THE STATE CONVENTION. Tbe proceedingi of the State Convention appear on onr first page. We wish all of pur, good Democrat in Cleveland could have witnessed that great gather ing of splendid Democrats, The party ii in good ' shape in the State. The spirit of the con vention was fine. It was inch a convention as would not -quietly submit, to the domination of a platform committee, but 'rose up in its might and struck out every reference to any sort of primary from the platform. This killed the senatorial primary and also saved the Democratic from being placed in the attitude of endors ing primaries for every county, leaving the matter entirely with the respective counties to settle the matter as they deem best. Again, the convention came very, near succeeding in its effort to strike the endorsement ot the Kansas City national platform from the State platform as recom mended by the committee. The close vote by which this portion of the platform was adopted indi cates that the Democrats of NortL Carolina are not disposed to lon ger cling to the dead issue of free stiver. The platform adopted at Greensboro admirably expresses the Democratic position and is jast such a platform as Democrats will rally to the support of. The nominations were excellent, and barring the selection ot Judge Clark for Chief Justice, all of them will give universal satisfac tion The ticket will command the confidence and receive the sup port of the people of North Caro lina. and it will be overwhelming ly elected in November. Urover News. Reflections of a Cachlor. . Correspondence Stak. The chief event of importance occuring in Grover recently, was one that comparatively few are ever able to celebrate, a golden wedding. Relatively few couples live fifty years together, and even tbe aver age of life is still far below fifty years. On Sunday the twentieth, however, Rev. T. H. Mullinax and his wife celebrated this happy event. A number of their descen dants, a large number of their rel atives, and a very large number of their friends, assembled at their residence to offer congratulations and good wishes to tbe couple who, together in life, Had safely nasBed through the storms and sunshine of half a century. A bounteous dinner had been provided, and ev erybody present was, after a short, talk and a prayer by Kev. Bro. Bailey, quickly at work providing the inner man with the means to follow Brother And Sister Mulli pax's example in length of mar jried felicity. I The gold memorial pins present ed bv J. W. Mullinax. and the family record quilt that Mrs. Mul linax had arranged, were features bf the event. A number of visi tors from Cleveland. York and (Cherokee counties were present The affair was one of great inter est. It was generally regretted that Rav. T. Dixon, who officiated at the wedding half a century ago wai not present cn this occasion. Three witnesses of the wedding were present on tho occasion. Grover. New Tork Press.

Mrs. Justice, who formerly lived in Shelby but died at the home of her mother. Mrs. Martha Howell, was bcrn May 11, 1872, and ditd June 29, 1902. Her body was in terred in Ross Grove graveyard in the presence of a large concourse of sorrowing friends and relatives, Her grave waB bedecked with beau tiful . flowers. Deceased was a faithful member of New Prospect Baptist church for about IS years. She lecveB a husband and one child only a few hours oTd When th end came, she waa surrounded by hergrief-stncken and devoted hnsbajid. her mother, two sisters, and two brothers. One brother, Mr. R. L. Howell who resided in Gas tonia WB8 not at her bed side when the end came, but arrived shortly afterwards. All that loving hands and doctors could do was done for precious Mary to keep her with us on earth, bui he that doeth all tbing9 well had a greater work for her to do. We must be submis sive to his will that for her to be absent, with ua ou earth, is for Mary to be preseut with the Lord ; and may God comfort and b with the grief-stricken huabanJ, family and friends, is the prayer of this writer. Precious Mary, from us has gone, Her voice, we love.ia stilled ; A laceis vacant in the home Which never can be filled. A Friend. The picnic at Hollis Saturday July 17th was a grand success. A large crowd for 15 or 20 miles around was in attendance, and the best of order prevailed. . c Very interesting and instructive addresses were made by Messrs. J. P. D. Withrow, Horaoe Elliott, Mr. Pruett, of Ellenboro, Prof. Smith of Forest City, Mr. Morrow of Rutherfordton. Mr. J. M: Gud ger of Asheville and Prof. Mebane-j of Catawba College, Newton.

Latti more, of Polkville, : While all were of the highest order the pnzer a large chromo, was awarded Miss Weathers and presented by Mr. J. M. Gudgerm a happy and most appropriate . speech. The baby show was quite interesting with 15 or 20 competitors. The prize was awarded to the 10 months old son oi Mr. James Withrow. This fine boy is a grandson of Mr. ALramj Hamrick, of Double Springs. The entertainment broke up about five o'clock with bicycle and foct races. A bountiful dinner was served on the long tables and a greater day of enjoyment and wholesome im provement has never been spent in this section. Mr. J. P. D. Wilhrcw knows how to handle imd entertain a large crowd. He is a whole souled man; who does all things ou a large scale. "Whatsoever Mb hand find e.th to do, he doeth with all his might." He invited all back to a greater entertainment next year. His store was closed and his force of clerks devoted their whole time in enter taining their guests. J.

On the other hand, shiftless and d k contented farmers are continu y Crying against their hsrd life, and at the first opportunity will move to tbe city . where they flunk life is snoch easier. It re no uncommon thing to hear ot farmers moving their famlies to town in order that their children may have more social and educational advan ages. This is because of the actual condition f affairs of communities but not as . iey should be. Some will say, of course the conditions are not as they should be, but bow shall they be bettered? It is not within my pow er to answer, but suffice it to ssy that with tbe increase of population in the country the time will soon come when country schools will not be inferior to the citv schools At the I present we will have to admit that the city has an advantage, but we will not admit that it has every advantage.

The next morning the enraged shoe maker, with an officer went to the students' hall, suspecting that the boys had been up to their old pranks again. Butler learned tbat the shoemaker waa making a room to room search for the sign, and it was only a matter of time till his turn should Come. So he threw the sign on the open fireplace and fell down on his kueea and began praying. A loud knock soon came against the bolted door. But hear ing the occupant engaged in pray er, the shoe maker and officer waited till he shot Id have finish ed. Butler prayed loDg, with his eyes upon the sign which was be ing rapidly oensumed. When the last trace of the sign had disap peared, he concluded his prayer, to the relief of his impatient listen ers on the outside by saying.

C. pass ed through the city to-night with the body of his brother. John, who met death in a riot at Chicago, Tenn., a place or aooac duo people, located in Cumberland county. The Chicago-Tennessee Land and Coal Company announced that they would not allow negroes to work in the mines. Joha Barger talked to C. W. Bradsbaw. superintendent of. the company, on behalf ot the negroes. They quarreled and Barger killed Braashaw. Barger was felled by a blow from a piek-axe loan unknown partv's hand and died almost instantly. Jim Bice and Isaac Wright, both colored, were killed and others wound ed in a general fight which resulted from the false belief that the negroes were about to cause trouble. A. fierce tornado : swept over Balti more yesterday afternoon- The storm lasted fifteen minutes 'but during that time eleven persons were killed and much damage done to property in the residence districts and along the water front. All except two of the vic tims were oat in small boats in the Fatapsco river when the squall struck; and they-were drowned. - 1 established fact; that it is leally surprising how little the majority of city children know of the simplest facts iu regard to plant and animal life. The country child is far less ignorant on such subjacts because he is already somewhat famil iar with them. Modern school education is not gained wholly from books and the teacher as it was, but today the teacher and the books serve as guides and the student is compelled to work out his own salvation through obser vation and experiments. A fact is more deeply impressed upon the mind when brought about through one's own exertion than in any other way. Here, then, we come to the one great advantage which the country has over the city; and that is hi the study of nature. Is there anywhere to be found a teacher greater than nature hersel'? God in his infinite wicdom made na tare, while man in his power and skilj makes cities. Great admiration is expressed over the beauties of both, and we often wouder at the work of man, but let us go far from the gay cities and the wajs of men and pass through, the Mam moth cave or the Garden of the Godj; does our emotion cease with wonder? Can tbe citv produce a greater teacher of the geological po?t than the deep canons and high mountains of the West? Was there ever a more interesting and wonderful lesson taught in the city school-room than the growth of plants as found in our own fields, how the lifeless elements of soil are trans, formed into a plant with life? Does any teacher ever tell you of as many plants at you can find on jour farm? In the spring of tbe year when all nature burets forth ic triumphant harmony there is no one so happy as the farmers, for he is surrounded on every side by the beautiful, and every liv:ng thing is -a joy. There is nothing tbat will afford more pleasure, inspire more beautiful thought, or teach greater lesEons than a stroll through the woods on an early summer morn when the trees are clothed in their green robes and the air redolent of those sweets which is so enticing to every schoolboy. uoea tbe city oner to neither young or old a greater balm or stimulants of long life than tbe teachings cf long nature in this schoolroom? Under such circumstances it is a wonder that country folks are the most social, most moral, most susceptible to education of any other class of people? Biographers hae credited the country with the greatest minds of the ages. The country scnooi essayist never fails to mention the namer of our brightest statesmen and most loved presidents who have gone from the farm to such high stations in life, and in every one we see the peculiarities of their early training, hearing tbe works of natures own stamp. It is the life of freedom that is most productive of good, and when one is in close touch with nature, .his whole being is bouyant and it is then that work becomes interesting and inspires one to further and deeper Study, which leadi to knowledge to wisdom and happiness, the great aim of life. x Frank Harrelson Cherryville N.
