GIVETHE VOTERS A WHACK
Wilson Advance

Wilson Advance.
A number of papers in the State,
among them our neighbor, the MuvOr,
are already discussing the Senatorial
fight and are urging that it be kept
out of the primaries and the county
conventions. These papers say that
the constitutional method is to elect
the Senators by the Joint vote of the
State Legislature, whose members are
supposed to be unpledged, and that
the people should elect good represen-
tatives and trust to them. They fur
ther say that contest in the primaries
and in the conventions will raise Ill
feeling which may injure the party.
This sounds well. But the rank
and file of the party, for reasons which
we may refer TO later in the campaign,
are anxious, and in our opinion deter
mined, to have more direct voice in
the selection of Senators. II is not
profitable, perhaps, to enquire into the
reason Of this, but the fact will scarcely
be disputed, by any person in touch
with the voters of the party. In all
years and especially in this year, the
Democratic party should shape its
policy to suit the voters of the Demo
cratic party. This year the voters
want whaCk at the Senators, anG
we suggest that the voters be allowed
to have their way-otherwise they
might not vote.
The insinuation that the defeated
Democrats in the primaries and con
ventIons will not cordially support the
selections shows how little in these
days some people understand the rank
and file of the party. If they eEtel
primaries and conventions they vii
vote the ticket. All party experience
shows that, provided that those pri
maries and conventions are so man
aged as to fully and fairly expires:
the wishes of the majority. Their,
have been recent cases contrary to thi
rule but not among the rank and fiji.
The papers which are full of tall
about party harmony, and at the same
time suggesting county dscord-thos,
journals which deplore the Senatorial
fight, and at the same time wage wa
upon the man who was our foremos
Democrat in the last campaign, la,
themselves open to the charge OF act
ing in the interest of some candidat
rather than in the interests of tn
Democratic party. The voters desir
to select the Senators in more drec
manner than is provided by a strie
reading of the constitution. There
fore we advocate the selection Of can
didates for the legislature whose choic
for Senator is clearly understood b
the people.

When Chickens Lose Flesh.

Chicks about halfgrown, losing flesh,
becoming weak, hardly able to walk,
eating excessively, combs turned yell
low and feet always cold, living along
in this state for a long time, the disease
seeming to be contagious and finally
leaving the chicks mere skeletons,
skin and bones, should be treated for
lice by busting with milk sulphur and
dust bath provided. If the food is
unassimilated, feed charcoal in food,
mixing in five per cent. coarse, sharp
sand. Keep ground shells near by

A FINE SENTIMENT.
Wilmington Messenger

Some year or two since bret poem
appeared in Ataianta entitled "At
Set of Sun" The first reading of it
much impressed US with the solennlty
of the thought We are persuaded
that every Christian should seek every
day to do some good, even though it
be but the giving of a cup of cold
water. We assured that even this
simple act done in the name of dis
ciple of the adorable Master shall not
lose its reward 1t is more blessed TO
give than TO receive, says the Good
Book. Any act of kindness and any
expression of genuine love for your
neighbor go not unrewarded, tor they
have a reflex influence on life and
character. How a visit to the home
OF suffering, or the hut of restitution
and squalor, taking little basket of
bread and meat and delcaCies, will
cheer the suffering and destitute, and
what a delightful feeling it starts IN
the soul of the visitor, and how he re-
turns to his own home full of peace
and even JOY, the heart singing to IL
self the cheerful song of hope. Doing
good is like Shakespeare's presentation
of Mercy:
1.-The quality of mercy is not strained
1t drOppeth, as the gentle rain from Heaven
Upon the place beneath it is twice bless'd
1t blesseth him that gives and him tina
1t is an attribute to God Himself"
We hope the following lines will
stir some soul to activity and devotion
in offices of love and mercy:
"If we sit down at set of sun,
And count the things that we have done,
And cOu.ting find
One self-denying act, one word
That eaScd the heart of him who heard
One glance most kind,
That fell like sunshine where it wen.,
Then we may count that day we'll spent.
But if. through all the live-long day,
We've eased no heart by yea or nay
If through it all
We've done no thing that we can trace,
That brought the sunshine to a face
Not act most small.
That helped some soul and nothing cost
Then count that day as worse than lost.

THE POULTRY YARD.
Scaly Leg in Chickens.

The use of kerosene is strongly rec
commended by poultrymen as cure
for scaly legs in chickens. This affec-
ton is caused by mite which lives
under the scales of the legs. 1t is
generally supposed to be contagious,
although some members of the flock
never become affected with it. Crude
petroleum is also used, and is rather
better for young chickens, as it is not
so severe as kerosene.

Cabbage for Poultry

The small and inferior cabbages will
answer as we'll for the hens as the best,
and such unstable food may be con-
verified into eggs and sold. It is best
to aim to give green food of some kind
after the fall has passed and grass is
scarce. Green food can not easily be
obtained after grass is gone, but cab
bages make an excellent substitute.
They do not contain large proper
ton of nutritious matter, but serve to
diet the fowls and promote the
appetite by providing change from
dry food.

VOWILAY ME- DOWN TO SLEEP,
BY EUGENE FIELD.

The fire upon the hearth is low,
And there is stiffness everywhere
Like troubled spirits. here and there
The freight shadows fiuttering go,
And as the shadows round me creep,
A childish trouble breaks the gloom
And softly from farther room
Comes Now lay me down to sleep.
And, somehow, with the little prayer
And that sweet treble in my ears,
My thought goes back to distant years
And fingers with dear one there
And, as i hear the child's amen,
MY mothers faith comes back 10 me,
COuched at her side | seem To be,
And mother holds my hand again.
Oh for all hour in that dear place .
Oh for the peace Of that dear time
Oh for that childish trust sublime
Oh for glimpse of mothers face
Yet, as the shadows round ME creep,
do not seem to be alone
Sweet magic of that treble tone
And 'nOw ! lay me down to sleep.

Polls Wonderland Theater.

Another great treat this week is John W. Ransone in his great character of "The Ruler of New York" MT. Ran- sone gives an extremely realistic i'm personation of Dick Croker, the great Tammany chief. He has presented his caricature in the presence of MT. Croker himself, and delighted Croker so that he went again and again to see 1t. Dr. Parkhurst, too, is said greatly enjoyed the Croker caricature, and the people of New York, Boston, Philadel- phia and other large cities where MT. Ransone has appeared went wild over his funny impersonation. Other great funmakers also this week are Dixon, Bowers and Dixon, in clever acrobatic comedy; the Hines. with a pretty dis- play of miniature theatricals; Katherine Gyle, in sensational club swinging act; Howard and Williams, knockabou comedians: the Daltons, as aged dark les; the Misses Rice and Halvers in a charming mirror dance. and several other noted artists.

LEADS SOUSA,S BAND.

A Delightful Concert Throughout-The
 Band Plays Guilford's New March-A
 Great Success.
 One of the most enjoyable musical performances that have been presented in this city in many months was that of Sousa's band on Saturday night. The program which was played in- cluded many of Sousa's own marches and they were greeted with storms of applause.
 One of the hits of the evening came just before the last number on the program, when Fred Guilford made his appearance and took up the baton to lead the band. His appearance was loudly applauded and the playing Of his new march was signal success. So delighted was the audience that the band was obliged to respond to an encore. The piece is dedicated to the Naval Reserves.

Many were the downfalls Sat urday night and yesterday, even of our best people, and reports come of several persons who were badly bruised by un- expected upsets on slippery pavements.
 Rev. MT. Poteat delivered powerful discourse last evening at the Calvary Baptist church before a large congre- gation, denouncing the licensing of sa- looms and the use of money for public purposes obtained from license fees. The use of such money was held to be indefensible on moral and religious grounds. The speaker drew vivid pic lures of the evils resulting from the rum traffic and intemperance.
