A Good Farmer.

Our candidate for Lieutenant Gov
ernor is a good farmer, and the Dur
ham Recorder sustains us in this
opinion by giving some figures. Ac-
cording to that paper Col. Holt has
recently harvested 1000 bushels of
wheat and has the finest corn seen
this year. Last year he sold over
400 bushels of clover seed and sold
in Raleigh alone % car loads of hay.
All this is from only one of his farms.
Who can beat it? We challenge any
Republican paper to beat it.-Daity
Chronicle.
As to the proportions of the farm
we would not try to find its equal.
1t is the kid-gloved aristocracy the
democrats glory in. Republicans
generally are of the class of men who
labor with their hands and sweat
from physical exertion and the heat of
the sun. The democratic candidate
for Lieutenant Governor is rich
monopolistic manufacturer. Ofcourse
he owns thousands of acres of land
and the poor tenants thereon have to
turn in to him their hard earnings.
What does he know about toiling OF
the heat of the sun? All he knows
of farming is theoretical. Think of a
man claiming (for purpose to be
one of the people, gathering from one
farm 1000 bushels of wheat, 400
bushels of clover seed and % car
loads of hay in one season He is
truly ''horny-handed son of toll"
Oh for something good for the
democrats to say for their candidates.
They have a foul man at the head of
their ticket and on the 18th of Novem-
Der they'll think the whole gang
struck out on foul.
