1BOUTRAILROID CONFUSION

We believe the committee of lnvesti-
satlon Of the cases Of the two Wilson's
railroad commissioners removed from
Office by Gov. Russell, made & report
favorable to reinsta.ing said men IL
Office. There seemed 10 be some
grounds for Coy. Russeli's charges
again-t the Wilson's and we doubt ii
the State will applaud the action Of the
Investigating committee.
AS THE COMMONWEALTH has observ
Cd things, there has been no one single
State interest before our people for
many years which has stirred up more
''fuss and feathers" than the railroad
commission It has cost the State
a great deal OF money, one way or an
other. Attorneys have been employed
by Gov. Russell and ct:ers, this quib-
bic ant; that has all the time kept the
State stirred up; considerable political
ciap-trap has hung on to the Commits
sion and good many people of the
State are unable to see any great ad
vantage, all things considered, in favor
OF it.
We have about become disgusted
with the whole thing and would as soon
see it all abolished as not, and regulate
railroads by legislative enactment as
we do private interests.

A LETTER TO THE FARMERS.

To the farmers OF Halifax county
While I am no. practical fsirner.
have made some observations which
regard worth your attention. Having
been reared on farm, worked as E
farm hand until 1 was twenty-one
years old, naturally am ia sympath,
with the farmer.
I wish to ask you: If you continue
to plant and cultivate cotton at five
cents ger pound, no" long VIII It take
yor to wild up in the poor house, OF
| lose what you have worked hard to
| gain?
Now, what I say is net from selfish
motiyG, for God knows do not want
to make money at your expense. My
best friends are farmers, many Of my
nearest OF kin are farmers, 50 / could
not advise you to do anything that j
do not think is good for you.
If you will leave off some of yonr
cotton crop and plant little more
tobacco, l think you will haye better
results at the end OF the year. I do
not ask you to do this simply because
I am running a warehouse, and want
to sell your tobacco, but because I actu-
ally believe you will make more clear
money on your tobacco crop than any
thing you can cultivate for few years
to come.
Let's see if am correct: You make
one bale OF cotton on an acre-25O
pounds at cents, $3.50. You make
800 pounds of tobacco CD an acre at
8 cents, $4,000.
Now, I will not figure on the cost of
either. simply say to you that there
is absolutely no profit to you on the
cotton, and I believe you can plant
and cultivate the tobacco for $50 per
acre. After curing and selling you
Gave Il profit of $34 on each acre.
I do not ask you to plant the whole
face OF the earth IN tobacco, as you
have been doing in cotton but ask
each and every farmer who has land
suitable for tobacco, to plant some. II
am going to plant some myself.
We will have next season another
great competitor of the American To-
bacco Co., and the outlook now Is that
tobacco will sell well. Prices are high
now, and nearly all the crop is sold.
So l can see no reason for prices to
open lower the coming season.
l think you will do we'll to take my
advice and plant some tobacco-those
ii you who did not the last season.
and those OF you who did plant tobacco
last year, plant little more, and I
think you will not regret it. We had
4 poor tobacco crop in this section last
year, but all other crops are equally as
poor. You arc just as apt to get
scou topacco crop as any other crop,
and it you will take my advice and
plant some tobacco, l promise to sell
it as we'll for you as possibly can.
I have written the above for YOUR
good as we'll as mine. Remernbe YOU
can make a good deal more on few
acres in tobacco than YOU can on cot
Ton. You cannot compete with the
Texas farmers In cotton.
Think carefully over what 1 have |
'aid and see it you do not think am
correct. Yours truly,
w. HI. WHITE.

HOW Stone IN THE BLADDER
Was Removed Without Surgical OPP
Grafton.
EST BECAUSE OF IT'S SEVERELY THAT
IT WAS KNOWN FOR MILES
AROUND.
Below VIII be Found an Interesting
History of the Case, Written by
Mr.. Bailey Himself.

A sense of profound gratitude and
JOY prompts me write this letter. I
suffered for ten years with kidney and
bladder trouble. Last August ] was
taken with terrible pain in my kid
neys which extended to the bladder.
The urine that passed, after standing
a while, became thick and ropy, or
muddy lett quantities OF sediment in
the vessel, and gave me great agony to
void 1t. Upon advice Of my physician
I finally consented to 90 to the Hos
pital at Raleigh. When I got there
the chic. surgeon examined me, and
said it would be necessary to remove
the stone from the bladder by surg
zeal operation. This he admitted was
dangerous, owing to my age and feeble
condition. I decided if must die I
would 60 home and die with my fam
lily. After returned from the Hos
pltal in respondent and almost hope
less state of mind, took your certifi-
cate and pamphlet, sent with the sam
pie bottle Of Swamp-Root, and went to
kind and wise friend and we read
the circulars, and discussed my symp-
toms and the chances OF my recovery,
should submit to an operation. We
decided to try your medicine, and If
no relief after thorough trial to risk
the knife. After taking the sample
bottle bought six large bottles of
your Swamp-Root and used it accord
ing to directions. And about Feb. 9Th,
to my great delight, the stone seemed
to crumble. | began to pass small
PARTICLES of gravel stone, and on that
night l passed the one enclosed, about
the size 0: large pea. I continued to
pass these PARTICLES and to improve I'M
til to day, under Gods Providence
through your Swamp-Root treatment,
my life has been spared. Had l |
chosen the knife treatment I fear 7
would have besn in my grave, or at
the best, lingering in the Hospital. T
regard your Swamp-Root as the most
wonderful medicine for bladder and
kidney troubles in the universe, and
wisi, I could tell all who suffer as T
did, the rebel and happiness it has
brought me. l expect TO continue its |
use occasionally to keep my kidneys
and bladder all right, and shall tell all
I see in the condition I was, how easy
they can find relief by using DR.. Kill
mer's Swamp-Root. What I have
written can be substantiated by prom
lnent people Of this place. l will ans
wer letters of inquiry if stamps are en-
closed for reply.
