The Democrat. (Scotland Neck, Halifax Co., N.C.) 1884-1896, 1894-09-27

The campaign has now begun. Speak
ers will be on the hastings in every
county and almost every township in
the Stase from now until the election
in November And THE DEMOCRAT
hopes to see the cause of Democracy
triumph in this great battle but we
reservations and misstatements by the
press as possible
Let the Democratic press not give
the Republico-Populists any chance to
say that they have been misrepresented.
1t often occurs that there is differ
ence of opinion about the number of
persons who hear this or that man
speak. A newspaper will say that there
were two thousand and some man will
say there were five hundred Well,
there is no reason for such descrepan-
cies. Whoever cannot come nearer to
he true estimate of crowd than to
say five hundred men are two thousand
men, or two thousand men are five
hundred men, has no right to express
an opinion at all. And if perchance a
newspaper overestimates it's crowd or
Jlnderestimates the other side, it recoils
and has bad effect.
Let the truth be told every time and
he results will be all right.

MONEY IN TOBACCO.

The DEMOCRAT has for seven years
persistently urged the farmers of this
section to diversity their crops, and
especially to raise their supplies
at home. For the past two or
three years they have been raising
their home supplies and they have at
tanned to a position of comparative
independence despite the low price of
cotton. Every farmer who has raised
his home supplies knows this Is true.
But cotton Is no longer safe money
crop. The price is so low that no
farmer can afford to make it. Great
depression has followed the one-crop
system whether that one crop was cot
ton, tobacco or what not Recently
few farmers in this community have
turned their attention to raising tobac-
CO, among them Mess. James Hodges,
J. j. w. Mitchell, J. c. Bass, w. T.
Whitehead and Jno. Pope. These gentle
men have made money on their tobacco
crop this year, and this greatly relieves
the loss by their cotton crop. Mr. Jas
Mitchell sold from something over 2
acres $29O5O worth of tobacco, and his
father, Mr.. J. J. w. Mitchell. expects
good prices for his crop. In Rocky
Mount the tobacco sales amounted to
over $4,000 last Friday.
Now, if there is any land around
Scotland Neck that will make tobacco
the farmers would do we'll to divide
their crops and raise some tobacco
The tobacco crop pays, one year with
another, much better than cotton, and
if our farm ers here had a good tobacco
crop this year they would feel better
and business would be very much en-

Hoods pills should be in every househol

While in Chicago, Mr.. Charles l..
Kahler, prominet shoe merchant of
Des Moines, Iowa, had quite a serious
time OF it. He took such a severe
cold that he could hardly talk or navi-
gate, but the prompt use Of Chamber
lains Cough Remedy cured him OF
his cold quickly that others at the
hotel who had bad colds followed his
example and half dozen persons or
dered it from the nearest drug store.
They were profuse IN their thanks to
Mr.. Kahler for telling them how to
cure bad cold 50 quickly. For sale

TT IS CHEATH4N ".

A press dispatch from Washington
dated 21st SAID:
The contested nomination OF Cheat
ham ys. White. In the Second North
Carolina district, was heard by the Re
publican Congressional Committee To-
day and its decision, Senator Mander
son. a member of the committee, said
tonight would be in favor OF Cheat
ham.
This settles the question as to the
contest in this district. The grave
question that is presented to every
voter in the district, then, Is this :
Which man is the better qualified to
represent in Congress the people in the
Second district, Woodard or Cheatham :?
Mr.. Woodland has made a good rec
ord in one Of the most successful ses-
sions OF the United States Congress
known since the foundation of the gov
eminent.
Despite the fact that the Populists howl
and some few Democrats still say they
are not satisfied with what Congress
did it stands as matter of record that
the last session Of the Congress made a
most wonderful stride towards relieving
the burdens of the people.
It is admitted now by many who
have all the while grumbled at Con
| gress that the results of the session
have been far more satisfactory than
was anticipated. Mr.. Woodland, as the
faithful representative OF the Second
district, has done his part of the work
and now the question with the voters
of the district is whether he shall be
returned or Cheatham take his place
We are persuaded that every Demo
crat in the district will do his full duty
and that every Popullst who has gone
from the Democratic ranks will return
and vote for Mr.. Woodland as his choice
between the two men who are now be-
fore the people.
Mr.. Woodland Is young man and
when he entered upon his campaign
two years ago he was practically unac-
quainted with the requirements of the
high office of a representative of the
people. He has served well his constlt-
uencv in Congress and it is matter Oh
general remark how he has broadened
by his experience. His speech in Scot
land Neck few nights ago rang like q
silver bell from the first to the last SEN
tence. 1t was most forceful and con
vlncinS argument for the cause of Dem
ocracy, His friends were proud OF
him, and even those who voted against
him, white and black, were proud OF
him as we'll.
Now, that the battle is to be drawn
between Woodland and Cheatham, let
every Democrat buckle on the armOr
and every lover OF economical govern
ment do the same and bis election will
be assured. We can not afford to be
negligent or lukewarm.

The National meeting of the
Augustan Synod of the Swedish
Lutheran church which meets in St.
Peter next week, will bring many
strangers to this city from all parts Of
the United States. 1t is estimated
that from 5000 tolls, 900 people will at
tend this gathering, and as it will be
impossible for ST. Peter to care for
that number, many will come to Man
kato to find shelter and food at night
among their own nationality. The
question of allowing their church
membership to belong to secret So
cieties is one of the greatest questions
which has ever come UP before the
Synod, and the matter will be def
nitely settled at this meeting. They
will attempt to define the meaning of
"secret society,"" Mr.. Andrew Under

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deaf
ness, and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an
inhamed condition Of the mucous lin
ing of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube is inflamed you have arumbl-
ing sound or imperfect hearing, and
when it is entirely closed, Deafness is
the result, and unless the inflammation
can be taken out and this tube re-
stored to it's normal condition, hear
ing will be destroyed forever; nine
cases out of ten are caused by catarrh
which is nothing but an infiamed con-
ditiOn of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One hundred Dollars

catarrh) that cannot be cured by Halls
