about the broken neck" asked John.
1t was broken, OF dislocated, which
is about the same thing" continued
Blake. 'Jenny's father knew of an
old Spanish doctor, about forty miles

wonder on bones. He was black as
an Indian and uglier than sin. He
felt around my neck. swore softly in
Spanish. rolled me over en- my face,

FORSYTH UNITED AND ACTIVE.
senator Simmons Stirred Men Up to
the 1893 Spirit OF DO or De.

To the Editor Senator Simmons
was with us here last night and made
a wonderful speech The way inc
crowd acted reminded me OF a story 1
once heard of an upstate New Y ork
farmer, = lulIe-Warm Democrat Wh"
happened to be in New York when
the Tammany Braves marched up
broadway. The very sight of them
set EVERY jint' in the old man
a'going, and he went back home and
said to his wife, Wife the very SIGHT
of those TammaTy faces set me hght-
ing hot and | have got to get out ana
70 to work " An immense audience
greeted our senior Senator, ana II
seemed when hey caught sight OF nm
all apathy was dispelled and wave
Of old time enthusiasm was started
that bids fair to sweep the old county
from one end 10 the other. The Stna-
tor remarked that he had heald that
the Democrats Of Forsyth county Were
Gsleep. but was glad to see that such
was not the case. He is right. Forsyth
Democrats arc imbued tbs year with
the spirit of 20 and '9S, and with our
eloquent Bob Glenn leading the ticket
and our popular and powerful Cy Wat
son canvassing the county along with
many other speakers, harmony and
determination TO win is in the very at
mCSphere.
Senator Simmons certainly got on g
Aigh horse last night, and the latter
part of his speech kept the unterrfted
with their hats in the air and their
voices unlimbered in tumultuOus APP
plause.
If Mr.. Glenn would permit his
friends to accept the offer of trading
from the Republicans of this county,
lie could easily sweep Forsyth by over
a thousand, but he has cautioned his
friends to be sure that no man on the
ticket falls behind him in the major
ity in Forsyth this year, reminding
them that any man who trades off a
man on the ticket for a vote for him
is not his friend

RANDOLPH STANDS AT THE HEAD

The largest political gathering Of
the year in North Carolina was held
at Asheboro yesterday when four
thousand peonle assembled to hear
Senator Simmons expound the doctrine
of Democracy. Randolph county did
herself proud. Long the home Of aS-
gressive Republicans, some of who do
not yet know that war issues are
dead. the sturdy Democracy of that
great county has won many a hard
fought battle against great odds.
While there is no contest that can
truly be called a contest in most of
the counties, Randolph Democrats are
fighting a hand to hand conflict. Sem
ator Simmons made a great vote
making speech and delighted the
Democracy of Randolph.
In the matter of great gatherings
and political enthusiasm this year,
where Randolph sits is the head of the

lance, as of yore, on the solid South
which means an appeal to racial
hatred. Is it not q sight for inch and
angels to see the Solid South, which
exists by virtue of it's nuiiificatioa of
the constitution, which promises Judge
Parker the bulk of his electors
through a suppression of u vast ma
jority of it's voters. attacking theodore
Roosevelt in the name of IN endang-
cred constitution ?"
The Republicans have three objects
in view in injecting the race issue IN
politics: 1. To get the solid negro vote
of New York, New Jersey, Indiana,
Connecticut and West Virg ma where
the negro vote controls: ?. To cover
up their assault upon the right Of tlil-
pinos to govern their own country
B. To prevent the consideration by
voters of the trust and tariff questions.
When the country is at war with an
other country, or when race questions
.nflame the passions, it IS Impossible
TO get a calm consideration Of the
economic questions the Democrats ere
pressing in this campaig l. when
driven to the corner for giving boun-
Ity through the tariff to the trusts
which sell cheaper to Canadians than
10 residents of New York, the Repub-
lican answer is: THE Democrats in
South Carolina do not let the negroes
all vote" When convicted of violating
L solemn treaty and constitutional pro-
visions in the Panama scandals the
Republican orators reply: 1.-THE DEM
ocrats in Louisiana disfranchised many
negro voters" When confronted with
turning their backs upon the tradl-
tionaI policy of the government in
our dealing with the Filipinos, the only
Republican answer is: "Why don you
elect negroes to Congress from the
South ?''
There is in this bloody shirt waving
in the closing days of the campaign
serious danger to the Democratic Ms
tional ticket. ana. f Roosevelt wins,
it constitutes a serious menace to the
peace and good government If the
South.
