SOME DAvY CRoCKET PHILOSOPHY.
BE sure you are right; then go ahead"
Twelve years ago if there was q
"Martin man" in the First Congress
aional District it was not publicly
known. A year later there was one,
If not two. From that time on the
friends OF the 'junior Senator" here
have been steadily increasing in num-
Der. Six years ago a very stiff fight
was made for the Senator against
Gov. Tyler, the opposing candidate,
and although two representatives
from the First District voted in eau.
Gus for Mr.. Martin not a county but
Lancaster was carried for him as an
issue. Today, six years later, with
the most popular man the opposi-
ton could produce, Senator Martin
has virtually swept the First Con-
gressional District-the parent al
home Of his competitor and where
the pioneer of the primary move
ment has been lording it for fifth
of . century,
The fidelity and untiring zeal of
friends have in great measure been
responsible for his success here, but
this fidelity, as we'll rs the unbound
ed popularity disclosed for Senator
Martin, has all been bred by his sterl-
ing worth, his honest aud candid
demeanor and his great usefulness
In the station he has occupied twelve
years.
As 1t has been in respect to Sena-
tor Martin 80 it is largely with Con-
gressman Swanson. 1t is true that
four years ago the Fifth District rep
resentstive went down in defeat, and
with him went also his friends in
Lancaster-again standing alone
among the counties of the First Dis.
trict Today we see the coming Gov
ernor sweeping the First District
with greater rush than even his
friend, Senator Martin. In the full.
ness OF success We feel amply repaid
for all the seemingly unavailing toll
OF past years, and the men of this Sec
ton who have not lowered lance even
In defeat point with pride to the re-
suits and satisfaction in the knowl-
edge that our people have at last
come to see the virtues in public
men who had long been represented
to them In an unfavorable, and even
slanderous light.
Martin, Swanson and temperance
have been the slogan of the VIRGIN
IA CITIZEN for years, and one BY
one it has seen the fulfillment of ITS
deSiress We have always believed
that right will eventually prevail,
and We think We see it now verified.
Today we stand on the same firm
ground, have never been shaken by
isms or the taunts of enthusiasts, and |
in continued consistency we 60 for
ward In the fight.
That any wounds should have
been made was not our desire. In
the heat of bitter fractional fight
we have probably gone little fur
ther than calmer judgment would
dictate, and in such instances we
are the ones to hold regret. 1t is
orr earnest wish to heal any breaches
and saive any wounds, and we shall
do ell in our power to join hands
with every Democrat and every fell
iow-worker in the newspaper field
to advance the cause against the
common foe.

To OUR esteemed contemporaries,
the esteemed Richmond News-Leader
and the esteemed Northampton
Times: Don't you think it about
time to discontinue the use of that
ugly word machine? Just now the
thing you would style the machine
seems to be q large majority of the
free and unpurchasable voters of
Virginia. Surely you do not wish
to slur upon so many of your coun-
trymenl In speaking of "machines,"
what part of the Gubernatorial tur-
bine is that bunch of one hundred
and fifty Governor Montague APP
pointed the week before election as
delegates to some sort of agricultu-
raj "blowout''? We see men in
the bunch that do not know gourd
seed from a patch of greens.

WOMEN AND SCANDAL.

There was a discussion before the
Hull House Woman's Club of Chi
cago the other day that should be
taken up by every organization in the
country. says the Toledo Blade.
A paper was read on scandal and
gossip. the writer maintaining that
they are more heartless than cruel
ties inflicted on the body. She urged
that all women should pledge them
selves not TO gossip. Club women.
especially, contended the writer.
could work great reform because of
the influence of their example.
In the discussion that followed, it
was argued that, while more women
than men are addicted to gossip, the
former are less malicious and there
fore do less injury. But saying so
does not make it so, and there are
no statistics bearing on the subject,
the statement is at least open to ar
gument.
But 1t is difficult to understand
why the women should have dis
cussed this phase of the question at
all. since il is generally admitted
that all scandal and most gossip
work harm. If the women really
desire to defend themselves and
make their offense appear the lighter
in contrast with the injury inflicted
by the gossip of men, they might
have pleaded that time hangs more
heavily on their hands: that the tales
of the children are carried to the
mothers rather than to the fathers,
and that the scandal mongering of
the servants is poured into their un-
willing ears. Quite naturally they
are tempted to roll the choice NOR
sells under their tongues and pass
them on to their neighbors.
Men. on the other hand, if they
gossip, do it to the exclusion of more
important affairs-in fact, from pure
perversity of mind.
But, as to the genaral proposition.
there can be only one argument. Cos
sip and scandal being injurious, it
stands to reason that the women who
undertake n crusade against them
are engaged in a humanitarian work.
Families have been broken up, repu-
tations ruined and hearts torn with
anguish by the cruel tongue of scan
dal, and the thoughtless word of gos-
sip.
We believe If the club women of
the country make common warfare
on this evil and succeed in vanquish
ing 1t, they will have accomplished
more for Christianity than if they
should wipe out every saloon. But it
is to no light task the Hull House
women have invited their sisters. If
they would make even fair progress
it means the breaking up of lifelong
friendships, the sundering of ties
that have endured for years. The
woman who persists in spreading evil
report of her neighbors must be os-
tracized. The man who delights in
destroying the regulations with his
venomous tongue must be made to
understand that he is placing himself
without the pale of society. There
can be no temporizing with the bale
full disease. Heroic remedies only
can effect a cure.

What are Building and Loan Asso'
Citations.

The following, taken from an eX-
change, is reproduced with the idea
OF putting our people to thinking
more along the line OF Building and
Loan Associations:
Joint stock benefit associations for
the purpose of raising fund to as
sist members in obtaining homes.
Money is loaned to the members and
is paid back in weekly or monthly
instruments. The interest on money
borrowed at the rate of & per cent.
per annum is payable weekly or
monthly. Every six months these
Building and Loar Associations re
ceive into it new members. The Sc
curity offered to investors induces
many people to enter the Building
and Loan with view of having Il
convenient means of depOsiting their
savings. In the United States alone
the assets i'll these building associa-
tions is $4,000, 100000. This
large accumulation is the result of
only few years. Think of the homes
now owned by people that have been
built through the Building and Loan
Associations. If you want to build
it's good thing. If you do not, it
teaches you and trains you to save.
Talking about what Building and
Loan Associations will dOfO a town,
Charlotte now has buildings under
way that will call for an outlay of Il
million dollars.

The Country Boy Has the Advantage.

AS an old farmer friend remarks, a
homegrown, hard-spanked, bare
footed and hard-fsted country boy
makes a much better fighter in the
battles of life than does the pamper-
ed, high-collared, -trousered
youth OF our towns and cities whose
clothes have always been busted with
a whisk broom instead of a shingle.
There is more catarrh in this section of the
country than all other diseases put together
and until the last few years was supposed to
be incurable. For great many years doc
scribed local remedies and by constsntly
failing to cure with local treatment pro-
nOunced it incurable Science has proven
catarrh to be constitutional disease and
therefore requires constitutional treatment.
Halls Catarrh Cure, manufactured by F. j
Cheney Co., Toledo, Ohio, is the only con-
stitutional cure on the market. 1t is taken
internally in doses from 10 drops to a tea
spoonful. 1t acts directly on the blood and
mucous surfaces of the system. They offer
one hundred dollars for any case it fails to
cure Send for circulars and testimonials.

The following from the Marshville
Home tells q big truth in but few
words. Everything in the newspaper
line has gone up except the newspaper
itself, and printers are completely at
the mercy of trusts. The Home saws:
Printing establishments that are hand
icapped by labor trusts, type trusts, ma
chinery trusts, ink trusts, paper trusts,
etc, know what it is to be pulled" for
all they are worth. Last week we order
ed a lot of new type to meet the demands
OF our work and when the bill came it
was put down at a cents pound! And
it doesn't take but half a handful to
weigh pound. The trust could make
money at % cents pound, but they like
a cents better, and the publishers have
to grin and bear it. \ year or two ago
we bought from an independent type
concern two hundred pounds of new
type that is as good as anybody's type
at 21 cents pound, but we can't get it
that way now. It's the same old tale
the independent concern sold out to the
trust and quit business.
