DANGERS OF A COLD AND
HOW TO AVOID THEM.

More fatalities have their origin
in or result from cold than from
any other cause. This fact alone
should make people more careful
as there is no danger whatever
from a cold when it is properly
treated in the beginning. For
many years Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy has been recognized MS
the most prompt and ellectual

EDITOR DEMOCRAT;

In an Issue OF the Democrat of Janu-
airy 9th County Superintendent l.. B.
White in an article headed GA Kick"
expresses himself frankly as to the
treatment accorded him as County
Superintendent AS citizens and tax
payers of Lawrence County seeking the
best interest of the public generally, we
register ourselves as fully concurring
with Mr.. White in his views as per-
tains to his Office and commend the
action of those Justices who voted to in
crease the salary of the County Supern-
tendent. We are all forced to admit
that; the State demands, and the Coun-
ty wants, the best qualified men us
County Supt How can the people Of
Lawrence county ask such qualifications
as the State demands, and also a mans
entire time to revoutionize school
work in the county, without justly com
pensating him for his time and work
We have always advocated an increase
of salary for the County Supt to
such an extent that will Justify him in
devoting his entire time to the cause Of
education We however demur to
the statement of Mr.. White, that the
Office of County Supt. is an illegiti-
mate child of the County, and we fur
ther insist that although it was born
last, it is legitimate child born to
the official family of Lawrence County
in lawful wedlock. We wish to call
attention to the fact that the parents
of this official family of Lawrence
County are still alive and immensely en-.
ioying the sunshine of the day, and
slumber peacefully during the dark
shades of night. They have provided
well for at least four of its children
towit: The Clerk and Master, Trustee,
County Court Clerk and Register. The
Circuit Court Clerk and Sheriff, so far
as salary is concerned, have been neg
Iected to certain extent and deserve
consideration. Public officials should

What About 1904.

The Portland Oregonian has
an editorial entitled we Crisis
of 1896" in which it seeks to just
ify the contribrrfons BY insurance
magna1es to repupubllcan cam
funds. The Oregonian
c9Aitends that had free coinage of
silver carried there would have
been general ruin. The Orego-
MAN adds:
The defeat of Bryan was
necessary to the safety of the
insurance companies of the
country, and of those who
held policies in them. And
nine-tenths of all who were
interested in insurance knew
it, and voted accordingly.
Let us, for the sake of argu-
ment, admit all for which the
Oregonian contends. But how
will the Oregonian Justify the
- ntribstio us-of these policy
holders money to the republican
campaign fund in 1904 when, the
democratic platform being silent
on the money question, the dem
ocratic nominee declared himself
unequivocally in favor of the
single gold standard?
Even though these republican
editors convince themselves thai
the republican national committee
was justified in its participation
with the embezzlement of the
policyholders money in 1896 and
in 1900, with what reason vii
they reject the now very popular
demand put it back as applied
to the participation by the re
publican national committee In

CateIOupe Meeting.

The most interesting meeting in the
history Of the Ethridge Canteloupe AS
sembly, was held in the school house,
Saturday January 6lh say the most
interesting to the Association, and it
also should be the most interesting to
Lawrence Comfy as we'll. The especial
purpose of the meeting was to decide
aud dispose Of the crate question This
question had been discussed at pre-
yious meeting and bids asked for the
view Of having them manufactured at
home. There was only one bid pre-
scented to the Association aud that was
by Mr.. J c. Todd, representing A. T.
Wylie Manufacturing Co Mr. Todd
proposed to furnish crates at 10 cts per
crate, cash, or II cts September lst
This proposition was accepted unani-
mously by the Association and every
one seemed satisfied with the thought
that the Association could snow the
spirit to'encourage home industry, and
keep our money in our midst than to
send it odand pay bigger price.
This action means thousands of dol
lars to Ethridge and Lawrence County
and | hope that the A. P. Wylie Manu-
featuring Co., will get sufficient patron
age to justify Them to remain in the
crate business for in that case we could
get crates for shipping any kind of fruit
and vegetable at home.
/ The crate shown a. sample was very
/ neat affair and the Association was
assured that the crate furnished would
be equal to sample in every respect.
/ We have great hopes that the Cante.

future for Lawrence County and hope
that all who are interested will take
especial pains to market the best melon
