Had DR.. J. NJ. Gallemore procured
witnesses from Keytesville in his suit
for divorce in the Howard county
circuit court, he would have doubtless
been sorry that he was ever born. If
he has friend here we don't know it,
while, on the other hand, his loyal and
sacrificing wife has the sympathy and
esteem of everyone. Not only was his
conduct shameful, but he left behind
his own flesh and blood, remarking,
that ''he knew his wife would well care
for his own" But there is just
God that dealeth with such characters
as DR.. Gallemore according to their
deeds.

Catarrh in its various forms is rapidly
becoming a national curse. An un-
doubted remedy has been discovered by
DIR. Hartman. This remedy has been
thoroughly tested during the past forty
years. Prominent men have come to
know of its virtues and are making pub
lie utterances on the subject. To save
the country we must save the people.
To save the people we must protect
them from disease, The disease that is
at once the most prevalent and stubborn
of cure is catarrh. Public men of all
parties recognize in Peruna national
catarrh remedy of unequaled merit.

Austin, Texas, October 11.-Governor
sayers, accompanied by his wife and
Clerk c. s. Morse of the supNeme
court and Miss May Morse, left last
night for New York to open the bazaar
for the benefit of the Texas storm
sufferers. Governor Sayers will go
from there to look after some Texas
claims caused by the Spanish war. The
Claims amount to about $4,000, $780,
600 of which is held by the railroads
and the balance is made up of indlvid-
ral claims. The claims we're sent to
the war department by the claimants,
but the war department declined to
consider the claims of individuals and
held that the state must first pay the
claims, and that is why the governor
is going there. The state holds that
he claims will not be paid until they
ere approved by the war Office AS
soon as the war office approves the
Claims the state will pay them, as the
last legislature appropriated 100000
for that purpose upon the approval of
the secretary of war.

NORTH CAROLINA FARMING.

"There has never been such a large
wheat crop or a better yield per
acre." is the report from Randolph
county.
Strawberries did we'll this season
but truckers send in discouraging
reports as to prices received for
many other crops, especially pota-
toes.
A Buncombe county correspondent
writes much wet weather delayed
haying and grain harvest. Late
timothy and oats are now coming on
in the mountain section"
The Agricultural Departments
statistics show that the condition of
cotton in North Carolina is better
than in any other one of the ten
principal cotton growing States, being
s points better than the best and 25
points better than the poorest of the
other nine States.
We expect to publish at an early
date the address, "Stock Problems of
the South" delivered before the
East Tennessee Farmers Conven-
ton a few weeks ago by Superintend-
ent George F. Weston of Biltmore
Farms. The address has been highly
oomplimented by those that heard it.
A successful farmers institute
was held at Kings, Stokes county,
June 3Oth. Prof. j. M. johnson tells
US that although in a busy season
the attendance was very good.
They have a fine farming country
up there" says Prof. johnson. 81
have seen no better wheat anywhere
in North Carolina. And it is almost
an ideal section for dairying."

EDITORIAL NOTES.

Prepare now to place your boy or
girl in some high school or college
this fall. This may be done at a
seeming sacrifice of time and money,
yet in not one case in a hundred is
such a step regretted.
This is an excellent time to keep
cool and guard your tongue. IN
scrupulous politicians in all parties
are using the thoughtless and foolish
u~tterances of the opposition to in
flame passion and prejudice. HE
that is slow to anger is better than
the mighty and he that ruleth his
spirit than he that taketh a city"
By far the greater portion of our
people are brave and just; only the
fools are talking of force and blood
shed. "Bless our souls" as an ex-
change says, 1--WE r not Filipinos."
Keep cool.
We are glad that rural free deliv-
cry of mails is to be tested in so
many sections Of North Carolina
this year. Politicians have said
little about it yet it is in our opin-
ion destined to do more than any
thing else to hasten the "better day
for agriculture and broaden the
horizon of the American farmer.
Perry S. Heath of the POstofice De-
partment has an interesting article on
this question in the Saturday Even
ing Post of July 18th. Rural free
delivery has no more enthusiastic
supporter than he. He concludes his
article; from which we expect to
make liberal extracts next week, by
saying: with well-built agricul-
tural roads t~raversing every part of
this great country, and the free de-
livery of the mails brought to nearly
every farmers home, l confidently
believe that a social revolution will
be effected the benefits of which
win be felt for generations to come"
You will do well to see that your
candidate for Congress is friendly to
rural free delivery.
Arecent Paris dispatch says 1.-The
most brilliant and costly American
dinner ever given in Paris was that
at which William L. Elkins, the Phil
.adelphia millionaire, last night en-
tertained 25 guests at the Hotel
Ritz. The table decorations alone
cost $4,000. The canopy over the
dining room changed it into a starry
vault. There were silver stars all
over the blue ceiling. The palms
cost $1,000 each. Berets sang when
SOusa's Band ceased at intervals"
Reading this, the question presents
itself Is there not something wrong
with the system that enables a few
drones to live in this style, while
the millions toll for a bare susie
nance? And whether the cause be
trusts, or whatever it be, is it not
the duty of every man to whom has
been entrusted the privilege of as
sisting in the selection of the law
makers of the greatest nation on
earth to study the question in an I'M
biased manner and seek a remedy?
And are you thinking for yourself
or bGndly following the lead of
bosses?

put in close touch with the world
about him, and there will be less
complaint of the "out-of- the-way"
ness and isolation of farm life.
Cooperative cotton and tobacco
factories and other enterprises by
which the farmer would share in the
profits made in manufacturing his
products are often discussed. This
principle means much to the more
enterprising and ~business-like farm
erS.
Again, with the development Of
the live stock and dairy industries
and the change to an intensive sys-
tenn of farming, the fertility of u
soils will be gradually increased and
the quantities of commercial fertili-
zers used gradually diminished, so
that the production of the staple
agricultural products will also be-
come more profitable.
How is all this to be brought about?
Only by education, organization,
cooperation.
First, farmers must understand
that farming is as much a business,
a profession, as any other Occupa-
tion. That it has it's laws, it's business
principles governing it, and that it
requires education and business abil-
ity just as is the Ease with all occu-
pations that pay. More boys must
study agriculture at cur agricultural
colleges; more sacrifices must be
made to keep the farmers children
in school. More newspapers must
be read. AS stated last week, in only
two States in our Union are news
papers SO poorly supported as in
North Carolina. We must get in
touch with our Agricultural College
and our Experiment Station.
Education, organization, co-opera-
tion-these are inseparably linked
together. Education will show the
necessity for organization and CO
operation, and organization will
make cooperation possible. Organ
ize and cooperate for a better condi-
ton of affairs, mentally, morally,
socially and financially" When we
have a farmers club in every town
ship it will not be long before there
will be cooperation in putting down
the tobacco trust, the jute bagging
trust and all other trusts in saving
a million dollars by cooperation in
buying and mixing fertilizers in
developing our live stock and dairy
industries, supplying our home mar
kets and competing with our West
ern brethren in Northern ones ; in
teaching the principles of agricul-
ture, in developing a taste for educa-
ton, brotherly kindness, and better
social life among our people; in
building up our trucking and fruit
growing industries in working to-
gether for everything that would de-
velop the resources of State and
uplift her people.
We have in North Carolina nov an
organization broad enough for all
this and under trustworthy leader
ship, knowing no political or religious
creeds. Let farmers rally to it, and
build it up.
We advise our farm boy CORE
spondent to stick to his farm, if he
has completed his education. A bet
ter day is dawning for North Caro-
lima agriculture. Let him and all
others work to hasten it.

OF A PLoT-NEw KING NEARs ROME.

THE ASSASSIN'S CALLOUS MOOD-RUMOR
or A PLOT-NEW KING NEARs ROME.
Monza. July 31-The body Of the late King
Humbert dressed in black, lies to-day on the
bed ordinarily used by him. Around the massive
candelabra holding burning tapers at the foot
and head of the bed are flowers placed by
Queen Margaret. who passed the long hours of
the night in prayer by the bed of death Father
Bignam the Court Chaplain. is in immediate
charge of the bier. The Cardinal of Milan has
ordered a requiem in all the churches in
his diocese.
Great numbers of kilograms Of regret and
coincidence continue to arrive. including mes
sages from the most illustrlous families of Rome.
The formal act recording the death OF King
Humbert was drawn up at / o'clock this morn
ing in the Kings bedroom. 1t was witnessed by
Count RudinI. former Prime Minister and the
royal household. The President of the Senate
acted as notary for the Crown. The Minister
Of the Interior and other officials were present.
Signor Saracco, the Premier on his arrival at
the royal villa to tender his condolences to
Queen Margaret, had impressive audience
lasting half an hour. All the royal princes the
Queen of Portugal and the Duke of Oporto
have arrived here.
The assassin has been taken from the local
police station to the Jail. Bresci maintains an
examination he declared himself to be a revoIu-
tionary Anarchist, and said he was ready to re-
sumo operations if he were released.

TROOPS TAKE THE OATH.
ALLEGIANCE SWORN TO VICTOR EMMANUEL
uI-QUIET IN THE KINGDOM.

Rome, July 31.-AH the italian troops to-day
took the oath Of allegiance to the new King
amid the applause Of the people. Perfect tran
quility reigns throughout the country
A deputation of Senators and Deputies had ar
ranged to meet King Victor Emmanuel, but as
in conformity with court etiquette. the journey
of His Majesty to Monza was strictly private
the idea was abandoned. For a similar reason
the Ministers decided not to go to Naples. The
King received the news of his fathers death by
semaphore.
In the absence of the King the Ministry
has issued in his name a manifesto to the Ma
tion, as follows:
King Victor Emmanuel III, in ascending the
throne has to perform the painful duty of
nouncing to the country the awful calamity
which has violently cut short the valuable life
of King Humbert.
The nation, wounded in it's sincere affection
for the august dead and in q sincere feeling
of devotion and adhesion to the dynasty. while
eXecrating the cruel crime, will be plunged into
profound grief for the Venerated memory of a
good, brave, magnanimous King, the iride CT
his people and the worthy perpetUator or the
traditions of the House Of Savoy. By rallytng
with unshakable loyalty around his august sue
cessor, Italians will prove by their deeds that
their institutions do not die.
The police are pushing inquiries in all direc-
tions, but the information with regard to the
assassin Bresci is not yet definite. 1t appears
that when he was searching for lodgings on
Friday at Monza he was accompanied by
young man. for whom the police are row seek
ing. The pistol the assassin used was a new
and superior weapon marked Massachusetts,
The police of Milan searched the house of a
man named Rarella, and. it is reported, found
Important papers showing that Bresci had rela-
tions with persons in the United States, and
that communications had passed between him
and them in connection with the crime.
Bresci and another Tuscan frequented the
cafes in Milan. where they were overheard dis
cussing a big scheme that would astonish the
world Everything goes to show that the crime
was long premeditated. and the police are now
being charged with want of foresight. 1t ap-
pears that the cordons formed upon the arrival
of the King at the festival ground were with
drawn prior TO his departure. AS the King was
leaving a sort of scuffle occurred, probably pre-
arranged to distract the attention of the carabi-
neers.
The King was so pleased with his welcome at
Monza and felt so safe that he turned to his
aid and said: I'D like TO return afoot" but
he was dissuaded from the plan
The "Tribuna" says the assassination of King
Humbert is believed to have been the result Of
a plot An Anarchist recently declared so the
'rribuna" asserts. that meeting had been held
in Paris at which lots were drawn and several
persons were selected to kill the King.
Besides Bresci. FIVE persons have been taken
into custody at Monza-
