There is more Catarrah in this
section Of the country than all other
diseases put together, end until the
last few years was supposed TO be in
durable. For II great many years
doctors pronounced it a local dis
ease, and prescribed local remedies,
and by constantly failing to cure
with local treatment, pronounced it
incurable. Science has proven
catarrah to be q constitutional dis
ease, and therefore requires consti-
tutional treatment. Halls Catarrh
Cure, manufactured by F. j. Cheney
u Co., Toledo, Ohio, is the only con-
stitutional cure on the market. 1t
is taken internally in doses from 10
drops to a teaspoonful. 1t acts di-
rectly on the blood and mucous
surfaces of the system. They offer
one hundred dollars for any case il
fails to cure. Send for circulars
and testimonials. Address,

Hon. W. ii. WORTH, Raleigh, N. c.:
DEAR SIR Il see In last weeks eau
CAsIAN that my name appears as one
of those who entered oyster grounds
In this, PamlicO county. L just want
to say that if all the names that you
have came there as my name did. the
whole thing is fraud; for l never
heard of such thing until [ saw it in
the paper. l also see the name of John
Henderson as one who had entered oys-
ter grounds. Now, sir, know that that
man has been dead tor Is years; and
lots of other names of people I see in
the paper who l know were dead long
before '93. l bope there may be some
way to investigate this whole thing.
We people down here feel proud of
the stand you rave taken in this mat

The Beaufort Herald Dispatch pub

The Beaufort Herald Dispatch pub
lished the following few lines:
"Buck" Kitchen writes to the
Scotland Neck Commonwealth, that
no sensible man has any faith in the
leaders Of the Populist party. And
Buck we expect sensible people
also nave lost faith in you since your
''famous" run Of the political gamut.
This called forth a letter from
"Buck" Kitchen, and the Dispatch
goes back at him in the following:
"He, (Kitchen) wanted them, (the
Popullsts) to give him an Office, and
as soon as they refused to do so, be-
cause he had not been a Populist
long enough, then it was that he
went to ''biack-guarding' Marion
Butler and Harry Skinner, the men
he helped put in power.
Buck" we do not care to ques-
ton your honesty, there is no need
for us to do that. You we're once
elected to Congress and then it was
that you acquired a reputation for
honesty that will stick to you as
close as did our Little paragraph. 1t
is not necessary to say more to you
than-"the tree is known by its
fruits North Carolina is now reap
ing some of your sowing. If you are
1eally in earnest about wanting to
come back into the Democratic fold,
do so quietly, without tho sounding
of many brazen instruments; 60 to
the polls next November and then
and there start over again your po-
litical career; vote the Democratic
ticket, but don't expect for the Dem.
ocrats to honor you by an Office un-
til you are moro staunchly fixed with
in the Democratic fold than the pro-
verbal Irishman's flea. We want to
be sure to know where to put our
finger to find you.

ever we can serve you kindness by
pointing out to you the way in which
you should 60 politically, just drop

For Longer School Term.
To THE SUPERVISORS

To THE SUPERVISORS
would like for you to make especial
effort among your people to have them
supplement the public schools by pri-
vate subscriptions. There could be
raised in many localities enough
money to continue the schools from
four to six weeks. Especially could
this be done where teachers have made
themselves felt, and created interest
among the children for study.
Some parents are in different on the
subject Of education, and especially so
when it must be paid for directly by
them, but the majority of parents are
different instead of Indifferent, am in
cllned to think, on this subject.
How do parents decide whether their
children are making progress in
school or not? Do they examine into
he work the children are doing?, Not
SO; they judge by the interest the
children take in their books at home.
| Their efore if this interest has been
created among the children, then there
is hope OF reaching the parents.
| You cannot even hope to supple
ment all of your schools, but select
some localities in your own county
where you know there has been good
work done and some interest created
Use your efforts with such people, and
if you can get two or three schools to
supplement- the public school this
year, it may prove an object lesson
for those schools near by to follow
next year.
This is worthy of some effort or
your part. Of course 1 shall not ex-
| rect the same results from the efforts
of the various Supervisors.
But where Supervisor has been 20.
ing among the people, making speech
es for education, and stirring the peo-
pie in the interest of schools, have a
right to expect some results from ar
effort of this kind.
trust you will make this effort re-
gardless of what the result may be.
