A GREAT deal has been said
about prospective legislative
candidates and the possibility of
electing at the Democratic pri-
maries of a man unworthy of the
honor of representing Durham
county. While 1--we are of the
opinion that Durham could Sc
cure .much better than has been
mentioned TO this writing without
much trouble, we believe Dur
ham people will select the right
man to 90 TO Raleigh during the
next sessionof the legislature. II
she fails in this instance in
choosing a good man to represent
her it will not be the first time
nor the first county that has done
the same thing, and while it is
to be regretted that such a thing
should be done, it should be re.
membered that If some that have
been mentioned go there is no use
TO worry for they will not be able
to do anything anyway.

In the approaching campaign
there should be no lack for cam
paign thunder in the Republican
camp, and if all signs do not
fail the Democrats will have
ample opportunity to collect like
material from what the Republi-
cans will furnish.

IT sounds rather funny to hear
people say that they wish the
circus would have come to Dur
ham just two days later than it is
billed, but their reason can be
seen when it is remembered that
we have had two elections here
this year already and are likely
to have two more. If this pri-
mary business keeps up few
people will be able to keep track
of when the real election is to be
pulled off.

ONE good feature about the
effort of both the Republicans
and Democrats trying to catch
the negro vote is the fact little
is said about the negro by either.
The work is quiet and the negro

the case-divided.

This is a new paper for Durham,
with Prof. T. H. Lindsey as edi-
tor and owner. The new paper
is devoted principally to stories
with state and general news

THAT Alamance county has

gratifying to many people in this

commendable and will help the

1.-THE doors Of the Robert Hackney
pharamcy were closed to the pub
lie by an official order from w.
B. Guthrie, trustee. The sudden
closing of the store was caused by
the Robert Taylor Company max
: ing a demand for an amount of
5000 due since May of this year
with interest amounting to $3.25.
A judgment before Justice R. c.
Cox was obtained, and the amount
was $2o5.25. The failure of the
firm to meet the note was only
because of bad collections. The
: indebtedness is fully covered, and
none ofthe creditors will lose any
thing. 1t is hoped that matters
will be Strengthened out in short

business. -

Why Colds are Dangerous.

Because You have contracted oidin-
ary colds and recovered from them
without treatment of any kind, do
not for moment imagine that colds
are not dangerous. Everyone knows
that pneumonia and chronic catarrh
have their origin III common cold.
Consumption is not caused by cold
but the cold prepares the system for
the reception and Development of the
germs that would not otherwise have
found lodgment. 1t is the same with
all infectious diseases. Diphtheria,
scarlet fever, measles and whooplng
cough are much more likely to be
contracted when the child has cold.
You will see from this that more real
danger turks in cold than in any
other of the common ailments. The
easiest and quickest way to cure a
cold is to take Cham mberIain's Cough
Kennedy. The many remarkable cures
effected by this preparation have
made it staple article of trade over

That our American Forests abound in
plants which possess the most valuable
medicinal virtues is abundantly attested
By scores of the most eminent medical
writer's and teachers. Even the untu-
tored Indians had discovered the useful
ness of many native plants before the
advent of the white race. This informa-
tion, impaired freely to the whites, led
the latter TO continue Investigations until
