FIGHTING THE DEVIL WITH
FIRE."

1t is an old adage, that if you want to
whip the devil you must fight him
with his own weapon, fire. There
never was greater fallacy, OF mis-
take. The devil is accustomed 10 fire
-''fiTeproof," as it were He knows
how to manage that dangerous, de-
stroying element. His satanic majesty
cannot be successfully attacked in his
own realm and element except by
devils-those equally immune with
himself. II gamblers could be beaten
at their own game there would soon
be no gamblers likewise devils To
fight the devil successfully with fire
there must first be transformation
of the attacking party into the same
nature as the devil himself. No as
bestos or coat-of-mail has yet been
discovered or invented that will pro
tect the wearer from the power and
herceness Of his corroding fires. A
forest fire, but not the fire unquench-
able, can some times be successfully
fought with fire.
True in politics. To undertake to
beat a bad man with bad man-cor-
ruption with corruption rickery with
trickery - immoral candidates with
immoral candidates, is To fight the
devil with fire, and fail. To meet fire
with fire means 10 adopt the devils
methods and manner, and the political
party which adopts such motto and
pursues such method, ought to fail.
Try turning the hose loose. The devil
hates "holy water" Fighting dogs
and mobs, even, have been dispersed
IN this way. Fight the 4evil, but never
with fire. Vesuvins vs.. Vesuvins.
means more NesuVins.

TAFT REVILIN0 THE DEMO
GRATIS.

Mr.. Taft, in his speech 10 the negroes
and Federal Office holders Of North
Carolina, June 9th, declared that
while the Democratic leaders have been
for years declaring against corpora
lions, "they have instituted no legis
latiVe steps in all this time 10 restrain
the abuses" Taft knew this TO be ut
terly false. He knew, for instance, that
the Tillman-Gillespie resolution under
which the Standard Oil and the rail
roads are now being Investigated was
OF Democratic origin. He knew that the
Tillman bill TO prohibit corporations
from contributing TO party corruption
funds,-a bill which passed the Senate
but was opposed by Root, Roosevelt
and Taft SO that it failed in the House
was of Democratic origin. He knew
IhdC the democrats IN Congress have
introduced numberless measures de-
signed TO curb the trusts by abolish
ing the tariff duties on trust-made
goods. He knew that nearly
every Democratic State had es-
b / h railroad com
mission to prevent extortions and dis
ordinations by the railroad companies.
In fine, Taft knew that he was evad-
Ing the truth and gloried in what he
was doing. Let him read what Roose-
welt has written about liars, and he
will probably think less Of himself.

A Mystery on
| over Clear Fork

Quite sensation WAS produced on
Clear Fork last Thursday evening by
the finding OF the skeleton OF AN ua-
known man near public bride path,
leading from Clear Fork across the
mountain to Graham, by "a boy and
his little sister, who were hunting
COWS.
The skeleton was that OF white
man, about . feet 5 inches tall, and
thirty five or forty years old perhaps.
From indications the man had died
months ago. All the flesh was entirely
gone from the bones, which hal fallen
apart, the head being found some dis
tance away. DIR. Hix, who was called
to view the skeleton 10y Magistrate, T.
NJ. Bourne, said that the man had
evidently died something like twelve
months ago.
There was no mark Of violence
Of any kind, and no means of
Identification. and no clue as To how
death came.
The remains of clothing, shoes. etc.
found Indicated man in the humblest
walk Of life
\ strange thing is. that Humbers of
people, including DIR. Hix, have passed
that way often recently, and discover
ell no odor or evidence Of n dead body.
although it was only about 10 feet
from the path.
\ young man, squirrel hunting last
spring sat down within feet of where
the body lay, and did not discover il.
or any evidences of it.
The bones of the skeleton We're
gathered up and buried.
