GOSPEL TRUTH"

The Rutherfordton Sun speaks
wisely and truthfully in last
weeks issue regarding party 10y
atty. 1t puts it this way:
LAS the heavens are high
above the earth, so is a moral
above a mere legal duty. No
sane man can take part in a pri-
mary without assuming it's con-
sequent obligations. He can
stay out of it if he wish. Even
then, if he choose to forego his
rights and leave party choice to
his party associates, there is a
claim that party loyalty presses
upon him, to be governed by the
properly ascertained wish of his
party fellows. But for the man
who votes in a primary-who
pools his chances or those of his
friends in this party method of
testing popularity. there is no
escape from submission to it's
results, whatever they may be.
10 act otherwise, is to sti1e con-
sclence-and just so sure as that
truth is truth because Gods God,
the man who does it is a striped
and shaven convict at the bar of
his own soul; and however he
may hide it from men, will wear
the remainder of his life a ball
and chain, unless God forgive
him.
Defeat is nothing-the best of
men suffer that in the pursuit of
the very highest public or pri-
vate ends, and no disgrace at
taches. Indeed there is no cause
for personal Encouragement or
humiliation.
But position won by the use of
questionable methods is a success
that sours, and will in the end
bring its deserved disgrace.
The clean way is the only safe
way"
Just so. The man who becomes
d~isgruntled because he or some
friend gets defeated for an office
and kicks out of the traces"
can never feel right about it af-
forwards. If he is loyal to prin-
clple the only proper course is
cheerful submission to the choice
of the majority. Principle and
not men should govern the action
OF every individual at the ballot
box and personal differences
ought never enter into the cal
culation after nominations are
made. Those who participate in
primaries are; in duty, bound to
abide by the result. The Sun is

The Mcdowell Democrat says:
by special invitation of the
Democratic county executive
committee Hon. Locke Craig, of
Asheville, will make the formal
opening speech of the campaign
of 1908 in Mcdowell. The
county convention will be held
here on August 22nd and MIR.
Craig has accepted the invitation
to address the convention. Mr..
Craig is considered by many as
the best and most eloquent orator
the state and Mcdowell is
to have this dis5in-
speaker, who is loved by
all who know him best, with us
on that day. He will discuss is
sues and his message will be well
worth hearing"

new YORK FOR BRYAN

Present conditions in New
York are decidedly encouraging
to democrats and point to a
sweeping victory for Bryan and
Kern in the Empire State at the
n nvember election. Democratic
State Chairman w. J. Corners
is entirely confident of such a
result and says:
There is no question about
New York State which will give
pluralities of anywhere from
rs, 900 to 100, 900 to Bryan. More
than that, Erie county will go
Democratic by a large plurality,
which will be the first time that
county has gone Democratic in a
Presidential election since 1892
when Cleveland carried it by a
plurality of ninety. Bryan is
gaining strength daily"
The opinion of Chairman Con-
ners is concurred in by National
Chairman Norman z. Mack,
who, upon his return to Chicago
from an eastern trip recently,
said of the outlook in New York
State:
The situation as l found it in
the State, and in fact in all the
States, has been most
gratifying. The responsiveness
of the Democratic leaders in the
East to the call of duty denotes
a campaign that will be fought
vigorously to a successful con-
clusion. Plans are in contem-
plation for a forceful campaign
throughout the country, but of
those | can say nothing at this
time. All parts of the country
IS our battle ground, and no one
section will be neglected. Every
thing augurS well for the cleo
ton of William J. Bryan"
This sounds mighty good and
the active support of Judge
Parker, Herman Ridder, Thos.
Murphy, David B. Hill and
)ther democratic leaders the cleo
5oral vote of New York can be
captured for Bryan and Kern.
The democrats elected their state
last year, with the excep
ion of Hearst, the candidate for
governor, and it is entirely prob
able that Mr.. Bryan will carry
he state at the approaching

TIDE TO BRYAN.

Pretty nearly every day now
brings forth disquieting news to
republican leaders and further
strengthens the hope of demo-
Gratis for the SUCCESS of their
national ticket in the fall cleo
ton. Democratic leaders from
every section of the country re-
port favorable conditions, while
Taft adherents appear to be
uneasy. The latest expression of
confidence, by a prominent dem
ocratic leader, is the following
utterance, in Chicago on Thurs
day, from former Vice-President
Adlai E. Stevenson, who being so
hopeful this year he wants to be
nominated for governor of his
State:
THE Bryan sentiment is
stronger in Illinois than it has
ever been. He is now the can
didate of a united party for the
first time, and the prospects of
his election are excellent. In my
opinion Illinois will go Democrat
ic. Assurances come to me from
every part of the State"
Another hopeful Bryan sup
porter is Senator Bob Taylor, of
Tennessee. While on a recent
visit to the Nebraskan's home,
the Senator gave out the follow-
ing:
Il have been in Kansas, Mis-
souri, and Indiana, and to my
mind Bryan has a better chance
for election than Cleveland did
in 1892. found many Repub-
licans in Kansas who told me
they would vote for Bryan, and
as for Indiana, the prospects for
Democratic success are good"
But far more significant than
the published expression of any
individual is the following reso-
luton recently adopted by the
great Central Labor Union of
Washington, D. c.:
Resolved by the Central Labor
Union in regular session assem-
bled, That it support the stand
by President Gompers and {
his fellow officers of the Ameri-1S
can Federation of Labor in his
opposition to William II. Taft for
the Presidency, and call upon all
Law-abiding and honest working
men of the country to use their
best endeavors in the interest of |
William j. Bryan, to the end
that he may be inaugurated
President of our Republic the
Eth day of next March, not as a
but as a man friendly

abor and the wage-earners of the

The spirit of the Democrats of
of Western North Carolina this
year is in keeping with the spirit
that has characterized those stall
Wart men during all the years
when North Carolina has been
kept in the Democratic column
for good government. This
spirit is well expressed in a
recent letter from Mr.. w. o.
Common. of Mars Hill, who says:
Whoever the Republicans may
nominate the Democratic ticket
VIII win by a handsome majority
and Western North Carolina will
show Mr.. Kitchin that, although
we fought him in the convention
for all there was in it, we are, to
q man, loyal to him and to the
entire ticket now"
This expresses the feeling that
was uppermost in the convention
IN Jackson county where Hon.
Locke Craig made a mastery and
eloquent speech. the first elabo-
rate speech made in the campaign
Of 1908 by any man. MI. Craig
and all his men are Democrats of
the Vance type and will do as
much for the election of the tick

Johnston or any other section of

BURN THE E

The p~ostofice department Is sending
out orders to post masters throughout
the country directing them to see that
the weeds along the roadside of rural
mail routes are burned close to the
ground so that the snow will not pile
up and obstruct the roads in the win
ter. The department is getting more
trict with carriers and demanding that
they make the full trip regularly in al
most any kind of weather. To do this
the roads must be free from snow
banks. In East farmers fail to keep
the roads clear and the carrier cannot
make the route on account OF snow,
if the roads are the cause Of the OBJ
struction, service on the route will
be discontinued. The department is
doing everything possible to perfect
the rural mail service and it is the
duty of all patrons of rural routes to
do their share.

Two bottles should be kept in a

tanning five parts of lemon juice to
one of alcohol, the other, o~ne-fourth
ounce of gum t%ragacanth added to a
pint of rain-water which has stood
three days, then one ounce each of
alcohol, glycerine and witch hazel, also
a very little good perfume. After
washing dishes, preparing vegetables
