Advice to Young Men.

young men, keep out OF politics, )"
SAYS Senator Platt. That advice
would be all right if Senator Platt
had said: Keep out Of Republican
machine politics, which are rotten to
the core. Every citizen OF a republic
should take enough interest i'll poll
tics to investigate the policies OF
parties and vOte-always-accordlng
TO the result of his investigations.
Young men especially should take an
interest i'll politics, for it is upon the
young men of today that the govern
ment of the Republic will rest to-
morrow. Some young man OF to-
day will be, in a few years, president,
OF this great country, or he will be
Senator, or Congressman, governor
of his state. What would happen ii
the young men of the country keep
out of politics?' Young men should
investigate how the so-called Repub-
lican policy of protection that Platt
and the other Republican leaders
stand for, taxes them for the benefit
of protected interests. Young men
should know why the cost of living
is so GREATS per cent. higher than
when the present tariff law was ell
acted-and their salaries have notin-
creased in like proportion. Young
men should inquire why they are
compelled to continue in the EN-
ployment OF others all their lives in
stead of as formerly looking forward
to be their own masters. 1t is not
to the interest of Senator Platt or the
Republican leaders that young men
investigate the plundering system
that the Republican party stands
for, therefore they say keep out OF
politics.

The Republican theory that the

proves that President Roosevelt
is athorough-going Republican for he
heartily endorses the spending mania

Blot Upon the State.
Unwarranted Lynching of Three
Negroes at Salisbury by Fren-
zied Mob Monday Might've
tins Charged With Murder Of
the Lyerly Family.

A obestimated at three thousand
men raided the jail in Salisbury Mon
day night, Overpowered the sheriff
and guards and took therefrom three
negroes, Nease Gillespie and his son,
John Gillespie, and Jack Dillingham;,
and lynched them. The negroes were
charged with the murder of the Lyer
lv family near Barber Junction, Row.
an county, on the night OF July 18th,
and a special term of court was in
session to try them. Others impli-
Gated in the murder were Henry Gil
lespie, Della Gillespie (wife of Nease
GiIlespie) and George Irwin. These
the mob did not disturb. True bills
had been found against all six OF the
negroes and they would have been
tried before Judge b. f. Long OF
Statesville, and the guilty ones con-
victed no doubt il the mob had not
taken the law in their own hands.
The lynching of these negroes was
utterly without excuse and a blot
has been put upon the State by the
brutal act. Vigorous steps will be
taken to apprehend and prosecute
persons who participated in the lynch
ing.
The crime for which the lynching
was done was a most brutal one,
more like the act OF savages than
civilized beings living among en-
lightened people. Because of some
grievance Nease Gillespie is said to
have had against Mr.. Isaac Lyerly,
a we'll known farmer of Rowan cOun-
ty, he was brutally murdered while
asleep in his house His wife, little
son and a little daughter shared the
same fate, an axe being used to do
the bloody work. After the four
members of the family who were
sleeping on the first floor were butch
cred kerosene oil was poured on the
beds and the house set fire to, doubt
less to hide the horrible crime. Three
older girls who slept up stairs were
awakened by the smell OF smoke and
the Oldest one going down stairs dis
covered the awful deed that had been
committed. Heroically they went
to work and dragged the burning
beds out of doors and extin9uished
the flames.
They went to the nearest neighbours
IL mile and half away, and gave the
alarm. Suspicion fell upon no one at
first, but as a result of investigation
Nease Gillespie and his accomplices
were arrested. A small boy, eleven
years old, nephew of Nease, told
about hearing them plotting the
murder and talking about it after
ward, going SO far as to tell where
the axe was hid. The axe was found
at the place described and the guilt
of some of these negroes at least
seemed beyond question. They were
taken to Mecklenburg jail for safe
keeping until special term of court
could be held to trysthem. Monday
morning they were brought back to
Salisbury and the lynching of three
of them occurred that night.

Consider Your Own and Your Peo-
pies Best Intests by Takinga Policy
in the Southern Life Insurance Com
pany.
Why not consider your own and your
peoples best interests and place your
policy in the Southern Life Insurance
Company instead ofyOur friends interest
who happens to represent another Com
pany?
Look at it this way: "a mans best
friend is his Mother" Suppose your
mother owned farm of one hundred
acres, old and somewhat run down.
1t will make fifty bales OF cotton, which
she wishes to lease to you for rental OF
twenty bales. Across the road from
your mothers farm one, who cares moth
ing for you, owns farm of one hundred
acres in a very high state of cultivation
which will make two hundred bales Of
cotton; he will lease it to you for forty
bales. Like the Southern Life Insurance
Company he viii give you four-ffths OF
the profits. Now, you cannot cultivate
but one of these farms. III you cultivate
your mothers one hundred acres she gets
twenty-five bales; you wish to take care
of your mothers interests as well as your
own. With her farm she and yourself
can get fifty bales of cotton. By cult
waiting the other one hundred acres, after
giving the owner forty bales you have
one hundred and sixty bales for yourself.
Ii you wish to give your mother half
your earnings you gave her eighty bales
off OF the strangers farm instead OF
twenty-five bales off of her own, you
will have over three times as much for
yourself
The very low mortuary cost in young
Company and the high rate of interest,
puts the Southern Life Insurance Com
pany on a par with the fertile farm, W lille
the high death rate and low rate of in
terest puts the old Companies on a par
with the run down farm.
The old Companies usually give the
policyholders half the small profits which
they make, while the Southern Life In.
surance Company gives four-fifths Of
their much larger profits to the policy.

Farm Life.

Col. Il. b. Creecy in Elizabeth City Tar Heel.
The greatest drawback and oppo-
sition to country life is its isolation
and mOnOtony. Man is a gregarious
animal and seeks cOmpaninshipo OF his
fellows. Hence he pines in solitude
and looks around for an Interchange
of thought, Il sharpening OF mind
against mind and familiarity with
the current events of life. He fees
from country life and finds vent for
his Instincts in the idleness and vices
OF the city.
Happy is that boy who spends the
plastic period OF his life amid the sur
roundings and influences and employ
ments OF q country life.
There seems'tO be " supernatural
influence in the contact of our moth
cr earth. The country boy may be
gauky without the amenities and
IL mine of thought and has drawn
deep Inspirations from the new mOwn
hay, the white cotton fields and the
ripening harvest.
The history of our country,s great
men shows that much the largest
number OF them, have been country
boys born and bred, whose hands
have been toughened by the pillow
handles. They have learned in actual
experience how to milk the COWS and
drive the kline field. Whatever may
he the cause of it, whether it may be
that country life develops thought,
which is the parent of distinction, the
Tact is nevertheless true that country
life is the royal road to greatness.
These reflections are suggested by
the recent convention at kinston OF
the Rural Delivery Carriers 1t was q
great success. 1t showed that the
carriers were men of intelligence, and
that they could convey their opinions
to men lin thoughts that breathe, in
words that burn" The rural delivery
system is the great blessing of our
age; it removes the isolation of coun.
try life and adds to its charm and in,
fiuence. 1t makes the country boy
the equal of the town boy in all the
activities oflife. Itplaces in his hands
the daily newspaper, puts him il
touch with political and social life
while it clothes his mind with learn
ing III his moments of recreation from
toll.
He growsup remote from the temp
tations OF vice, a brave and virtuou
man having learned the lessons o
virtue from the great book of natur
which has been spread out befor
him.

President OF the Mormon Church, Are allow this
statement to stand regarding Idaho will the earnest
man and woman of this state 1epudiate it?
No less mOmentous in it's effects upon the future of
