about Winston drummer
''Col. j. Fl. Pierce, the popular
North Carolina salesman for Red
Meat Tobacco, is in our midst. He is

heart throbs with noble impulses. If
Bryan had been elected he stood a fine
chance to have succeeded Hoke Smith
as Secretary of the Interior. and the
way he would have made those radi-
calls skedaddle would have been
wonder to the natives. Re would
bave let his official ak drop so quick
and often that the heads of decapi-
tated radical office holders could not
have been cleared from beneath the
smooth blade of his guillotine fast
enough for toe next drove that he
would have beheaded.
"a delegation of Dallas politicians
waited on Col. Pierce yesterday to see
If they could not induce him to move
down here and become a citizen. They
want to send him TO Congress. He
will have the nerve to get up and buck
against Tom Reed, and il a scrap
should ensue, why he measures as
much around the waist as the Gar
does, and could hold his own in a
rough and tumble fight.
"There is but one Col. Pierce, and
he halls from North Carolina. He is
a Democrat and silver man, and
wants to see Billy Bryan as the next
nominee of the Democratic party and
believes that he will be elected"

TWO FAMOUS CABIN.
One Built by Tom Lincoln and Nancy
Hanks.


The Nashville Banner says: "At
the Tennessee Centennial Exposition
are to be exhibited the old cabin
birthplace of two famous American
citizens. These cabins are genuine, as
certified by affidavits in the possession
of the owner and exhibitor. The Rev.
w. G. Righam, Methodist minister,
while travelling circuit which en-
braced parts of Todd and Hardin coun-
ties, KY, bought the two log cabins
and the land on which they stood One
Of the cabins was built by Tom Lin
coin and in it he lived with his wife,
Nancy Hanks In this cabin, with
out fl lor, Abe Lincoln was born in
the year 1909 Every log, except few
which did not Withstand the ravages
of time aud the weather, is pre-
served
1.-The other cabin is one in which
the Presi dent of the late Confederacy
was born. 1t came from near Fair
view, Todd county, KY. Mr.. Davis
was born there in 1908, and when sixty
six years old was given a banquet by
old citizens of Fairview in tine very
same cabin. In responding to toast
he referred to the fact that he had
stood in the halls of Montezumas, in
the halls of Congress and in other his
toric places in America and other
countries, but none of these had
stirred his emotions as much as when
once again standing in the old cabin
in which he was born"

MISS ETHEL FOlLlN ENTERTAlNS
Complimentary to Miss Lille Watt
Penn, of Reidsyille

Complimentary to Miss Lille Watt
Penn, of Reidsyille.
Miss Ethel Follin entertained a
large party of young friends at the
elegant home Of her parents, on West
Fourth street, June S, from to IL
p. M, and a most delightful and
unique entertainment was accorded
the guests 10y the charming young
hostess.
The event was given complimentary
to Miss Lille Watt Penn, one Of
Reidsville's popular daughters, who
has for the past several days been the
guest of Misses Follin aud Buxton.
The principal feature OF entertain
ment was announced early in the
evening by Mr.. Rob. Follin and
proved to be song riddle of much in
terest in which the art of drawing
with chalk and black board was much,
and oftimes ludicrously in evidence.
All were first provided with cards
Tearing on one side the title of some
popular song and on the reverse a
number by which its possessor was to
be designated.
The guests were required to portray
as best they could the most promi-
nent idea in the song according to
their personal Interpretation. Then
followed the guessing contest in which
each guest must guess by the black
board drawings what songs the various
numbers represented.
This done, all the cards were col
| lected and appropriate prizes awarded
to Miss Leslie Sheppard and Mr.. Tom
Glenn, these two popular young peo-
pie having guessed correctly the titles
OF the largest number OF songs from
the black board suggestions.
A delightful menu, served most
elegantly, was one of the concluding
features of the evening.
The attendants were as follows:
LADIES.
Misses Anna Buxton, Bertha Helen,
Leslie Sheppard, Marion Sheppard,
Erma Bailey, Janet Smith, Helen
Sanford, Flora Leak, Carrie Vaughn,

Lectures and Educational Talks to

Before beginning an active canvass
for new members the Membership
Committee of the Y. M. @. A. is en-
deavoring to arrange strong course

fishing this course. An admission of
25 or so cents will be charged non
members.
Mr.. E. Z Anderson, Chairman of
the Membership Committee, will be
glad TO receive applications for MEM

Not an Idle Judge.

Speaking of Judge Aliens illness,
which caused the adjournment OF
Guilford Superior Court until Monday,
the Record says:
ut is said there is not an idle Judge
anywhere in reach of us-the only
persons allowed to hold court, and
then he must be empowered by the
Governor. 1t does seem that some
law empowering the presiding Judge
to select some one to preside in the
event OF his illness might be passed
without detriment TO the rights OF
litigants. Competent persons can be
found in almost every town OF the
State who could preside under such
circumstances and let the business go
forward. The Judges, as well as other
people, will get sick, and some provis-
ions should be made for 1t.

What Will it Cost the County?-From
$500 to 81 900.
Very few citizens of Forsyth coun-
ty are aware of the fact that another
election is upon us and that the cost
to the county of holding this election
will be at least $500
The last Legislature provided that
an election should be held on Tues
day, August 10th, at which election
the general election laws shall be in
force. By this the same number of
judges and registrars as at the gen.
eral election are required and the
county commissioners have appointed
them.
At this election vote will be taken
as to whether or not an increased ap-
preparation shall be made for public
school purposes. The county is in no

a Row in the Camp.

The Washington correspondent of
the Richmond Dispatch says: -
North Carolina Republicans here
are excited over late Raleigh news to
the effect that the State adminisfra-
tiou has been practically paralyzeS by
the insubordination OF Governor Rus
sells representative, j. @. Z. Harris.
The story is thateHarris holds great
number of offices by virtue Of the Gov
ernor's appointment as trustee, and
that in almost every disputed case he
has voted against the State admins
tration. From the Republican stand
point, the Governor is only nominally
the chief executive OF the State. Gov
ernOr Russell Is quoted as using some
sulphuric laf fuage in speaking Of Har-
riss action Id these matters.

strong aud excellent one.
Rev. j. A. B. Fry gave an interest

advice. He is at ali times an inspir-
ing and eloquent speaker.
An appropriate duet was beautifully

License Was Granted to Sell Beer for
Short Time.
Several days ago Col. Olds, of Raj

his correspondence
sit is said that Salem is the only
town in this State in which spirit
uous liquors. and beer were never
Sold"
The Republican says Col. Olds
slightly errs. The record is good
one although there be an exception.
and is one of which any community
has occasion to feel proud. Salem was
settled in 1766. So far as granting re-
tail license is concerned and over
which municipal laws only have juris-
diction, the above record was broken
but once in our recollection and that
was for beer, but only for short time
II wine, or even spirituOus liquors
were sold, it was under privileges af.
forded by the internal revenue law as
1t applies to home made wine and the
81 gallon clause.
1t has been humorously said that
Salem need not trespass upon this
well-kept record. II at any time her
citizens become dry" they have only
to step across the street into Winston
aud "wet their whistle" In all seri-
business, we are in position to know
that Salem would not now, nor do we
believe for years to come, will sane
tion saloon license, even if Winston
were to enact prohibition. 1t was not
done some years ago when Winston
was dry town nor would there be oc-
casion for 1t were the bar-rooms to
close doors again. Even with the eX-
ception which we honestly confess,
Col. Oids' challenge will stand. In
point Of years and according to popu-
lation Salem doubtless remaius the
banner prohibition town Of the State.
