Industrious.

Last winter, when twas four below,
1 hired a man to shovel snow.
To-day it's ninety in the shade
And that was foolish, In afraid!
I'd like to shovel snow to-day
I wouldn't think of taking payi
I'd shovel off your walk and mine
And whistle blithely all the time!
I like to shovel snow when heat
Is simply burning up the street.
There's only one thing I like more
Than doing this midsummer chorei
I like to NOW the lawn when snow
Has covered all the earth below!
But as you may a heard me say:
I'd like to NOW the lawn to-day.

1t Is to Laugh.
In an exchange I read what is in
tended for the following notice.:
1T will soon be our pleasure to re-
port the marriage of two of our most
popular young people"
What l do read, however, is caused
by an 20" for an "e"'and an inverted

1T will soon be our pleasure to re-
port the marriage Of two of our most
popular young poodle!"

ton into politics is for the
purpose of arrayed the great
moral hosts of the Republican
party against prohibition. In
this latter effort we feel they
will most ANONYMOUSLY fail.
Prohibition is a purely moral
question, to be decided by the
people irrespective of party or
creed. It was petitioned for by
all classes, parties and creeds and
an election has been called solely
upon it's merits as a moral ques-
ton. The question therefore is:
'Is Prohibition Better Than the
Open Saloon and Distillery?"
Or: Ills Temperance Better Than
Drunkeness?" This IS for each
voter to decide for himself, and,
1T Is up to him, to vote according
to his convictions on the sub
ject. 1t is impossible for anyone
to loose anything by voting for
prohibition, but no one can tell
what sorrows are ahead should
he vote against it. Isn't it best
to put whiskey out Of the way,
beyond temptation?

With a Knife.

Fred White, a negro of none
too good reputation employed at
J. E, Carson's brick works on the
Catawba river, was shot and dan
geronsly wounded Saturday Morn
ing. His assailant was Will Hardy
who bears a good reputation and
who holds a position of trust at
the brick works.
White drank too much fire water
earlier in the day and started out
for trouble. He met Hardy and
attacked him with an open knife.
Hardy knocked him down several
times but the frenzied man was
bent on trouble and continued his
efforts to cut Hardy who finally
pulled his pistol and fired. The
ball took effect in the rig hip.

Carolina watchman. [volume] (Salisbury, N.C.) 1871-1937, 1908-03-11

Mr.. George Morton told the
Salisbury correspondent of the
Charlotte Observer that the econ
ference to fight State Prohibi-
tionw as attended in person and by
proxy by ffty-two prominent
Democrats. Only four persons
away from Salisbury, could be
located. Why not admit that
it was a fiasco and let us have a
fair trial at State Prohibition
News and Observer.
Those present, as far as we have
been able to ascertain, swere as
follows:
Gen. Geo. l.. Morton, Whining
ton; Supt. Harry w. Stubbs,
Williamson, Prof. Jas. D. Nc
Neill, Fayetteville; Imperial Bull
dozer JOHNNY Julian, Salisbury ;
Maj. Walter Murphy, Salisbury !;
Emperor A. H, Boyden, Sails
bury and Ex-senator O. B. Wat
sons letter, Winston-Salem.
These titles are thought to be
correct but owing to tbs mis-
placement of our copy of "Who
is Who in North Carolina" we
are not sure as to all of them,
however, there is no doubt about
their prominence.
Of course the poorly informed
must be excused for standing
about the depot expecting to greet
Governor Glenn, Senator SIM
mons, Ex-Governor andsEx-Sena-
tor Jarvis, Locke Craig, Congress
man Jas. Pugh, Ex-Governor Ay-
cock, Ashley Horn, Senator Over
man, Solicitor Clarkson, jose
plus Daniels and ad in fnitum of
the unknown. Nothing but SYM
pathy could be heard for the old
soldier who really expected to see
Matt W. Ransom and q. 3. Vance,
but could not recognize a single
"deligate." Poor old fellow,
probably he does know just what
"prominent" means.
One gentle man, and his influ-
enceamounts to something, was
heard to say: st makes me tired
to hear them talking about promi-
nent Democrats"
According to the list given above

there were actually three dele
gates who came to Salisbury or
were passing this way on said
memorable date, Thursday March
9Th, and three from Salisbury.
A most magnificent fasco. Sup
pose they would take a notion to
vote solidly for Badly Altman for
governor, wouldn't the State be
in a most deplorable condition?
Why they had almost one voter to
every hundred who attended the
Anti-Saloon League Convention
in Raleigh.
If these gentlemen have any
greater claims upon the title of
Democrat than thousands and
thousands of other good people in
North Carolina, who intend to
vote for prohibition, we think it
is time for an analysis of the
name, platforms, creeds, customs
and acts of said party to be made.
We believe in fair treatment of
the minority, however small.
The members of a minority have
rights that should not be ruthless
ly trod upon or ignored, and,
they should be treated with kind
ness and justice. But should they
set themselves up, as these indi-
viduals have done, as dictators of
the party, censors of her rights.
and denunciatory of her acts, as a
party, they deliberately withdraw
from the principle of majority
rule, step beyond the bounds of
obedience to her will and forfeit
the consideration it is presumed
they desire. Now these "promi-
nent Democrats are not 80 ignor-
ant as to be unaware Of the fact
that the Democratic party in this
State is committed to temperance
and is responsible for all of the
legislation we have on this subject
to date. Consequently the Dem
ocrat who looks upon this great
moral question as a political issue
and opposes it as a Democrat IS
deliberately fighting, not in the
party, but the. party, it's platform
and It's laws consequent of it's
former success at the polls. Those
who are endeavoring to make it a
party issue are not without rea-
son for such conduct. We take it
that their first and main OBJ
iect is to defeat prohibition at
any cost. The disruption of the
Democratic party may be consjd-
but as a secondary matter,
and the effort to drag the ques-

SALISBURY. n, c., Mar. 18th, 1908.

The complete tiazle of the con-
ference of prominent Demo-
Gratis" held here last Thursday,
through lack of attendance and
enthusiasm, save that created by
the use of certain liquid fluids,
would, to men engaged in a better
cause be sufficient evidence of
the futility Of their efforts, and
SO greatly discourage them as to
cause them to forsake their inten-
ton. But whiskey, directly or
indirectly, SO quickly reduces men
from the sublime to the ridicu-
lous that we doubt not that the
meeting of the six prominent
Democrats" here last week will
be talked of far and wide as a
for midable movement within the
Democrat party to prevent the
party from running itself, and,
from this small foundation,
the erection of an inverted
pyramid will be started, COM
pared with which the folly of
the builders of the tower of Ba-
bel will shine as one of the wisest
undertakings of the human race
up to this good hour, Think of
six men, some of whom are as OBJ
scure to the masses of the Demo-
cratic party as eel wool IN the des-
ert of Sahara, presuming to dictate
to a great, free and intelligent
people and the dominant party
which is responsible for its con-
duct and the moral measures
which these advocates of drunken
ness and debauchery would have
repealed.

faith. Democrats! Verify, we
believe, there is more Democracy
and other good qualities in a flock
of wild ducks than any one con.

fact that prohibition is a moral
issue may be the reason for their
failure to recognize it as such.
