As to Mr.. Horne.

New Bern Sun.
The Durham Herald says: "Mr.
Horne is, "a farmer, and as we under
stand it, agood one; but there should
be some better reason than that for
making him governor.
And ''as we understand it," the
friends of Mr.. Horne know many rea-
sons for making him governor, in
addition to the fact that he is farm
err One of the first is that he is a
man OF first class and varied bust
ness qualifications, man who be-
iieves in knowing all about the bust
ness he has in hand, who does know,
and is systematic in everything. He
is not theoretical, but a practical
man. He is as uccessful farmer, if you
please, and no body can oppose him
on that ground; he is a successful
manufacturer, he is a successful mer-
chant; he is cuccessful banker. ANY
objection to these qualifications?
Who can be found in more sincere
sympathy and accord with the bust
ness life OF the people? That be has
plenty OF sense is proven by his sue
cess as BUSINESS man. Then, he
is Il Democrat in whom there is no
guile. His friends can argue that
the office needs him worse than he
needs the office-and the trouble
about it-and that is a strong reason.

One of the greatest triumphs of
Lydia e. Pinkha,n's Vegetable Com
pound is the conquering of woman's
dread enemy Tumor,
The growth of tumor is so in
sidious that frequently its presence
is wholly unsuspected until it is we'll
advanced.
So called wandering pains" may
come from its early stages or the
presence of danger may be made
manifest by excessive monthly periods
accompanied by unusual pain, from
the abdomen through the groin and
thigh.
If You have mysterious pains. if
there are indications of Inflammation
or displacements, secure bottle of
Lydia 4. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound, made from native roots and
herbs, right away and begin its use.
The following letters should con-
vince every suffering woman of its
virtue, and that it actually does
conquer tumors.
Mrs. May Fry, of $50 w. Colfax
Ave South Bend, Ind, writes
Dear Mrs. Pinkhau -
II take great pleasure in writ
ing 10 tnauk you Tor what Lyula u.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound has
done for me I also took the Blood
Purifier in alternate doses with the
Compound. Your medicine removed a
cyst tumor of four years growth,
which three of the best physicians
declared / had. They had said that
only an operation could help me. am
very thankful that I followed friend
advice and took your medicine. 1t has
made me strong and we'll woman and
shall recommend it as long as live. "
Mrs. E. F. Hayes, of 26 Ruggles st. +,
Boston, Mass, writes
Dear Mrs. Pinkham:-
''Ihave been under different doctors
treatment for long time without
relief. They told me had fibroid
tumor, my abdomen was swollen and
suffered with great pain. / wrote
to you for advice, you replied and
followed your directions carefully and

Both Sides Wrong.
Townsville Charity and Children.

Townsville Charity and Children.
There is a sentiment in our State
that is so bitter against the railroads
and corporations generally that peo-
pie who cherish it could not possibly
do Justice to them if they wanted to.
There are folks in North Carolina
who hate the Southern Railway SO
cordially that they would rejoice in
its ruin. However, this feeling OF
bitterness does not obtain among the
people to any very considerable ex-
tent. They may be misled, but they
would not knowingly do injustice
even to the Southern. At time like
this it behooves every citizen to calm
ly study the questions that arise out
of this railroad controversy from all
sides rather than from one. Hasty
conclusions may be harmful. The
railroads are not the peoples enc
mics but their friends. They have
been of incalculable service in devel-
oping the State. The impairment OF
the credit Of either or all OF these
great systems would be a calamity.
There is a good deal written about
the railroads that is not true. While
they have sinned they have been
somewhat sinned against. On the
other hand, the lurid picture OF ruin
the railroads and their friends are
painting is all bosh. Nobody should
be deceived by the threats Of disaster
The Southern Railway, we have no
doubt, is making as much money to-
day as it did under the 81 and 3X
cent rate. They must be carrying so
per cent. more passengers under the
new than under the old law. The
prophecies of evil they are making
are very tiresome. We dare say if
the railroads were assured the rate
reduction would stop where it is they
would call off their lawyers and quit,
but they are afraid if they yield this
point other and greater reductions
will be demanded. We would advise
our people not to go wild on this
question either way. Happy the can
didate who preserves his equilibrium
in this period of passion. We need
| the railroads, and we must not be
unjust to them; but they also need
us and would find life lonesome with
out us. The thing for all OF us to do
is to get busy with our own affairs
and wait until the Supreme Court
speaks on the question, and when it
does speak the party thatis on the
wrong side should gracefully submit
Until that time, all this wild warfare
on both sides is hurtful and sense
! less.

Topic Of the Hour.
Production of "Ben Hur" at the
Academy Of Music in Norfolk
Week Of September 23rd-Will
be Great Event

since enc announcement was made
that Ben Hur" would be q feature OF
the great jamestown Exposition the en-
tire week OF September %, it has become
the principal topic Of conservation in
many quarters, and hundreds have sieni-
fed their intention OF going to Norfolk
to witness it. For the past eight years
this mighty play has commanded the at
tention and endorsement OF the leading
men of the world in all walks of life
"Ben Hur," with it's lustrous star of
Bethlehem, its canels, Arabian steeds.
Oriental trappery and mimic splendor of
the gorgeous East is beyond dispute
the most elaborate spectacle ever staged
in the history of the world. Its series OF
IL scenes present to the eye feast of
multifarious beauty and variety, all set
to symphonic accompaniment of grace
fui music. The exciting episodes, such as
the gallery scene with its horde OF chained
slaves; the sea fight, the rescue in mid
sea and the thrilling race with two
chariots and eight horses, combined
with the picturesque scene illustrat ting
the Wise Men in the desert. the moonlt
lake in the Orchard OF Palms where Ben
Hur and Iris enjoy seclusion and make
love in lris's barge, the palm waving
newspapers on M. OnEeC ana the
Grove of Daphne with it's nymphs dan
cling in the skins of beasts to the music
OF kissing enthusiastically captivate
audiences wherever it is enacted.
Ben Hur" appeals to all classes, all
ages and all denominations of the Chris
tan faith, and draws to it, as to place
of worship, hundreds of thousands who
seldom, if ever, set foot within theatre.
The person of the Saviour is never made
to appear bodily in the play, yet in the
scene in which the healing of the lepers
is implied the approach of the Master is
indicated by a stream OF pure white light,
amazing in it's effectiveness. The scene
is the most remarkable OF the play and
heightened in impressiveness by the sing
ing OF a chorus OF one hundred voices,
joining in ''Hosannas' of praise to the
| Lord.
Mail orders for seats will be promptly
attended to when accompanied by re-
mittance. The scale OF prices will range
| from fifty cents to two dollars. Address
mail orders and letters OF inquiry to Mr..
Otto Wells, Manager, Academy OF Music
Norfolk. Va.

Straightforwardness is honesty
down to a fine point. 1t is internal
honesty-being just as honest with
yourself as you are with others-just
as honest with facts as you are with
people.
The straightforward man knows
/ tomorrow Or next year just how, he
acted today or last year even though
he has forgotten the actual Incidents
a., He can always take the same facts
and arrive at the same conclusions
He has rarely to explain. There are
few cone-backs in his business.
Srtaightforwardness is economical
1t saves the loss of money and the
waste Of time involved in straight
ening things out. 1t affords Il sure
footing in case of trouble. 1t is Il
good preventive for insomnia.
Straightforwardness can be applied
to the last detail of your business
You should require it of your clerk; of
your book-keeper; of your stenogra-
pher. The straightforward person
does not SLOUGH. You should demand
it of your workman, of your salesman
hot only common honesty, but
straigh tforwardness. You need it
yourself 1t is the main thing.

The Frequency Of Railroad Ac-
cidents.
Hendersonville Times.

Hendersonville Times.
Railroad wrecks are becoming en-
tirely too frequent. Leaving out OF
consideration such wrecks as are in
their nature unpreventable, the re-
mainder "a very large proportion)
may be divided into three elias SEES:
o. those due to a vicious system OF
management (such as the absence OF
modern safety appliances); those
due to individual carelessness on the
part of employees; a. those due to
defective road bed or rolling stock.
There is no adequate excuse for &C.
cidents of any of these three classes.
The Legislature would do better
service to the people if it would make
more effort to provide for the safety
OF the travelling public instead of ex-
pending its more or less valuable
energy in squabbling over passenger
fares.

every State in the land refuse license
to this man, whose conduct, if not
condemned, may have most in
furious effect. The minister or mag

The craze to "show off" and have
"big time" makes many a boys
assets consist only-of an expensive
suit OF clothes and an empty purse.
1t is not so much the size of a young
mans salary that helps to accumu-
late something, as it is his determi-
nation to cut out, or refuse to cult
vate, the foolish habit of "blowing
in" money. In this era of plenty
and prosperity there is no good rea-

should complain of his chance. There

to wor k and practice the economy

Cultivate the Habit of Saving.
The American Boy.

The American Boy.
1t is almost impossible for young
man who does not save money to
make business start in the world.
Most young men are wishing for bet
ter positions and bewailing the i'm
possibility OF doing anything on a
small salary. They want to strike
out for themselves, they want to go
West or South, they want to make
money hand over fist but their am
billions are checked right at the start
for the want of little ready money
to begin on. A young man who has
not the stamina and backbone to
put aside little temptations and save
a portion of his salary each week OF
each month is not likely to accom-
plish much in life. If this purpose is
not strong enough to enable him to
make a few sacrifices for the sake OF
his ambition he cannot expect to be
successful ultimately. The history oil
successful men shows strong purpose
and invincible determination.
