Robt. ID. Default and Geo. s. Han
nah have formed co.partnership un.
der the style OF DeVault & Hannah,
and will conduct general store in the
Adams building on Main street. They
will carry complete line of dry goods,
notions and shoes, and on account of
having ample capital to discount all
bills, will be able to make you attrac-
tive and interesting prices. Mr.. De-
Vault is native Tennesean, but has
been in North Carolina for several
years doing lucrative mercantile
business. Tired of his adopted home
he has returned to his native heath to
remain permanently, let us hope. He
will have charge of the store and Mr..
Hannah will continue upon the road
for Oglesby Dewitt Co., of Lynchburg,
Va. The Comet takes pleasure in wei
coming these gentlemen to the mercan-
tile world, and bespeaking for them
the patronage they deserve.
In order to get the building they
purchased the stock of clothing, etc. oil
j. E. Hayes and will dispose of it a
very low prices in order to make room
for the new stock.

The musicale ct Hotel Carnegie
Thursday night was largely attended
and proved to be most interesting af-
fair to the cultured audience. The
program had been prepared with great
care, and was rendered in most pleas
ing manner under the management of
Mrs. e. o. Nicholson, of Washington,
d. c., who, as pianist, captured the
audience by her cleverness as an artist.
The work of Mrs. w. B. johnson as an
elocutionist, and of Misses Willie Cox
and Elsie Hickman, both instrumental
and vocal, were especially attractive
features and deserve special mention.

for the corruption funds they contrib
ute to continue the republican party in
power Z? Can any democrat wink at
this corruption in the law-making de-
partment of the government? If not,
how can be vote either for Brownlow
or Taylor2 OF course, it can make no
difference whether 1t is Taylor or
Browplow. he will "stand by Roose-
welt" and that means to blow off hot
air against the trusts and monopolies
for a show, but that congress will do as
they direct in framing the laws.

As to the Congressional Middle in the
First District.
BY N, T. p, OF UNIcor


HowelIs says "nO man can hope to
muddle others without first muddling
himself" That being true it goes
without saying that the two republican
candidates for congress in the First
district are so hopelessly muddled in
national policy they cannot reasonably
expect to obtain democratic votes,
This is 80 plain to all men of sound
mind that no argument should be nee.
essary to show all true democrats their
duty.
Republicans favor tariff high
enough to collect many millions of rev.
enue annually to swell out the over
grown fortunes of American manufac.
turers. They do this under the false
pretense of protecting home industry,
but its real purpose is to enable our
manufacturers to add the tariff to fair
price for their goods and thus rob
American consumers under pretense OF
collecting revenues to support the gov
eminent. 1t is cunningly devised
scheme to enrich manufacturers in the
name Of tariff taxation to rob consum.
ers. 1t is an old form of political graft
for the benefit of rich men, that they
may rake in the skekels of poor con.
sumers. And this principle of fraud
and false pretense has run through our
tariff laws for more than a hundred
years. If our legislation on the tariff
was direct and not intended to deceive
the taxpayer, and all revenue was col
lected at the counter OF the retail mer-
chant, where all tariff taxes are finally
paid by the consumer, it would put a
large army of hypocrites out of the
public service. AS the law now stands
any double minded demagogue can
juggle with tariff figures and tell his
hearers the foreigner pays the tariff, 1"
and thus muddle the minds of ignorant
and uueducated men. But this state
ment that the foreigner pays the tariff
is only half Of the truth. 1t is true,
the foreigner pays the tariff at the port
of entry, but the tariff and all other
char ges on the goods is finally paid by
the consumer at the retail merchants
counter.
The issue between the two parties on
the tariff alone is so sharp and clear
cut / can not see how any democrat can
vote either for Brownlow or Taylor
without shameful abandonment of
principle and total forfeiture of self
respect. That being true, how can any
democrat who has the spirit of a man
in him object to nominating a candi-
date for congress- in the First district !?
Whether we can elect our man or not,
we need a campaign Of education to
prevent the party from becoming a lot
of stupid funkies, looking up to politi-
cal masters to tell us what to do. Are
not both the republican candidates for
congress ''stand patters ?" Does not
that mean the tariff barons are to
write their own schedules in the law
