COINCIDENCE.

A Washington newspaper wants to
know what a coincidence Is.
Suppose Little Willie is reading the
story of William Tell the same day his
rich and dotiug uncle is buying him a
how and arrow
Suppose, again. that father has sent
a barrel OF apples to the house and
that mother has gone visiting and left
Whites younger brother in his care.
IT Willie suddenly assumes a san
culinary attitude. sets brother against
n tree, places an apple on his curly
head, a Ia William Tell, and Gessler-
like. cndeavors to shoot the luscious
spheroid from Georgie's hcad-that Is
q coincidence.
IL Willic's mother comes home be-
fore he has hit the apple, that is a
calamity.
But n Willie escapes a good whip
p%ing-that is a miracle.

"Prohibition CO in Georgia.

More dismal and direful news
from Georgia. The home newspapers
suppressed it, but New York and
Western journalism was less consid-
crate. The story goes that when
the police few nights ago raided a
private room in the Kimball House,
Atlanta, they found six members of
the Legislature deeply engaged in
poker for high stakes. A seventh
member, it was discovered, did not
play personally, but maintained the
joint and got profits from a pretty
strong kitty. Worse yet, the room
was abundantly supplied with intox-
icants of all kinds from champagne
wherewith big winners might slim
ulate their joy, to common whiskies
and humble domestic beers in which
the losers might find surcease of sor-
row. All this in prohibition State
and with the active participants in
the enactment of the prohibition law,
so loudly acclaimed, so Historically
reJoiced over.-Richmond News
Leader.

Democrats Losing Ground.

A statement appeared in the Char
lotte Observer the oath inst, in
which it WAS said that in and around
Charlotte there were at least 1000
men who will refuse to vote for
Bryan, and that most of them may
turn to Taft. We were in High
Point a few days ago and while
there in conversation with a promi-
nent bushes man we were told that
many men around that progressive
city were going to vote the Repub-
lican ticket this year who had never
voted it before. The gentleman with
whom we were discussing the mat
ter volunteered the statement that
he had always voted the Democratic
ticket but this year he expected to
vote for Taft and against Kitchin.
All this goes to show there is a
great revolution now going ON in
the minds of the intelligent business
men of this State. What the ultimate
result will be is too uncertain to
hazard a prediction at this early
date.-LeXington North State.

THE JOB THEY ARE AFTER.

The News and Observer remarks ::
What job is he after? is always
the proper question when some stray
one joins the Republican party in
North Carolina"
The stray ones coming to the Re-
publican party this year will be
legion. The job they are after is to
rescue the State from Democratic
misrule and to put North Carolina
in the column of the party of pro-
gress and prosperity. And this will
brighten the Republican patronage
machine as much as it will the Dem.
ocratic organization, both of whom
equally fear Republican success In
this State.

North Carolina National Guard
circles and some of the State officials
are stirred up on account of an edi-
torial published in the last issue of
the North Carolina Christian Advo-
cate, at Greensboro. The editorial
which appeared in the Advocate is as
follows:
"An eyewitness informs the editor
of the Advocate that the encamp-
ment of North Carolina troops at
Morehead City last week, including
the trip home, was one grand de-
bauch. Now is it not time for the
people to have something to say
about spending their good money
once a year for nothing but the af-
fording of an opportunity for an an
nual consumption of booze on the
part of these military companies?
So far as any drill or practice is con-
cerned the whole thing is pictur-
esque farce
1t is stated that the officers of the
First Infantry have called upon the
editor of the Advocate for the name
of his informant If the informer
chances to be one of the soldiers,
won't he fare bad in the future?

Swallowing Their Words,

The Democratic papers and poll
ticians said before the Charlotte
convention that Will Kitchin was a
very dangerous man, that he was un-
fit for the duties of Governor of this
great State. Now the same papers
and the same fellows are just beg
ging the dear peepul'' to help them
elect this very man to be Governor
over them, and the people will not
do 1t. If the things they said about
him are true he is not fit for a court
house janitor, and If they are lies
then the people should not take their
advice about anything and should re-
fuse to follow gang who were try
ing to SANDER and steal the good
name of their brothers. We believe
the whole Democratic, party is dan
gerous and would advise all the peo-
pie to stear clear of the thing

Some Wise Justices of the Peace.

Mr.. Editor:-Will you allow me
to give to the public through your
valuable paper a sample OF some
Democratic good government. On
last Sunday a Democratic constable
went to a colored church and arrest
| ed a colored man and handcuffed
and tied him to his buggy and car
ried him before a Democratic Justice
of the Peace, and he tried him on
Sunday. And this was the case: The
plaintiff rented the defendant piece
of land for eight dollars, and the
defendant laid the crop by two soon
for the plaintiff, who went before
said justice Saturday and had the
| warrant issued. On Sunday the JUS
tice of Peace sent the constable to
arrest the defendant, and to sum-
mons several witnesses. One color
ed man who was summoned told the
constable that he would not leave his
church on Sunday to go to the trial;
and the constable told him if he did
not go he would be fined. So he con-
suited Democratic justice who was
at the church, and he told him he
did not know the law, but he thought
he had better go SO he went. When
he saw the justice who issued the
papers he told him that he did not
think he had any right to have him
summoned to appear before him on
Sunday; but the justice told him he
would read him the law, and after
he read what he claimed to be the
law, he said, Now you can see it does
not except Sunday. So the case was
tried and dismissed; but he negro
had the cost to pay which was seven
dollars and fifteen cents. The poor
darkey did not have the money to
pay the cost, so the justice of the
ipeace told him he would have to give
bond for the cost, and he would
charge him for writing the bond. The
darkey said he could pay it if he was
at Essex, and the constable told him
he would go with him to Essex il
he would give him one dollar for
going. My informant left the poor
darkey in the hands of the officers
and | do not know whether they sent
him to jail or to the changing, or
they may have sent him to the peni-
Tertiary. A gentleman told me some
time ago that justice in this town.
ship sentenced darkey to the peni.
Tertiary, and the constable started
with him and met a man who asked
him what he was going to do with
that darkey and he told him he was
going to carry him to the peniten.
tiary, and the man told him that q
Justice of the peace could not send
a fellow to the penitentiary, SO he
let the poor darkey go.

Mr.. John n. Hoffman. Editor the

Dear Mr.. Hoffman:
have Just received and read the
first number of the State Dispatch.
and write to congratulate you upon
esta blishing such a newsy. well ed
tied, and In every way creditable To-
cal paper. / feel sure that you viii
make IL a success. ] want to en-
courage such an enterprise. and. be-
Il herewith enclose check for one
dollar for years subscription.
If We had such a local Republi-
can paper in every county In North
Carolina the effect would not be only
very helpful to the Republican party,
but IL would also be very beneficial
to the State. II the truth and all
of the truth about our county and
State affairs were known TO the
voters the result would be much bet
ter local and State government
When the party in power controls
the press, that party is tempted and
Encouraged to ignore or trample
upon the rights of the people, be-
lcause they feel that they can do sc
with impunity, provided the facts are
not published, or IL published, giveI
only in part, and then, too, often col
ored with partisan bias. This woulC
be equally true CT the Republican
party If 1t were in power and con
trolled the press, for human nature
is the same, no matter to what part!
We belong.
The highest type of local ant
State government that can be pro
duced under a representative system
of government will result only whel
the two great opposing parties ar
, very nearly equal in strength, s.
that it will take, not great and fla
grant violations of trust, but Onl
ordinary misdeeds to cause tn
= change of sufficient votes to put on
= of power one party and put in tn
other. Every intelligent, patriot
citizen of the State, regardless of hi
politics, will admit that this is true
This being true, it becomes the dut
of every citizen, worthy of the name
/ Ito strive to bring about such a cor
a dition. l am delighted to see tina
such a Democratic paper as the Char
lotte Observer has recently taken
i position editorially in harmony wit
this view.
i One of the most important factor
s to produce such a result is more lC
o cal newspapers like the one you hav

both sides or in some way learn tn
full truth is misinformed and wi
naturally act and vote against hi

BRYAN AND THE SOUTHERN
VOTE.

Southern Democrats who have con-
victiOns on the liquor question and
the negro problem will have battle
with their conscience if they vote
for Bryan and Kern this fall. Bryan
is making a play for the negro vote
and trying to have them organize
Democratic clubs in the North and
he is also opposed to prohibition laws
while Kern, the candidate for Vice
President, is standing attorney for
the Brewers trust of Indiana.

A DECADEST PARTY WITH DIS
CREDITED LEADERS.

The editor OF the New York jour
nal gives the following as some OF
his reasons for leaving the Demo
cratic party:
II do not think the path OF patra-
otism les In supporting a discredlted
and decadent old party, which haa
neither conscientious conviction nor
honest intention, or In endorsing
chameleon candidates who change the
color OF their political opinion with
varying hue OF opportunism. ] dc
not think the best benefit OF laboring
men lies in supporting the old part,
because of a sop OF false promise
when the performance OF that party
while in power did more to injurs
labor than all the injunctions ever
| Issued before or since. ! have los

Shoots His Brother for a Burglar

John Cheek, of Bear Creek, Chat
ham County, is patient at st. Leo
Hospital, Greensboro. He was shot
in the thigh by his brother who mis-
took him for burglar. The former
had his residence robbed the night
before and he and half-brother
brother were out in the yard watch
ing to see If the burglar would re-
turn. After being on watch for sew
eral hours, Mr.. Cheek handed a
double-barrelled shot gun to his
brother telling him he was going into
another part of the yard and would
return the same way. Instead of
doing SO he went around to the
kitchen door and just as he reached
it his brother blazed away, thinking
he was a burglar. His injuries are
quite serious.-EX.

And this Is a-plenty.

We have Just noticed In the News
and Observer that 1t denies that
fried chicken was served to the ne
gro delegation that called upon Mr..
Bryan at his home some days ago.
The Observer says that the negroes
called, but that they failed to get
the chicken. The Associated Press
stated that the fried chicken was
served to the delegation and when
the Associated Press makes a mis-
take they have always fastened to
correct It, They have made no cor
rection In this instance, and If the
report is untrue why doesn't the
editor of the Observer demand that
correction be made by the Asso'
ciated Press? Neither has Mr.. Bryan
denied the statement, and If 1t ISM
true why doesn't Mr.. Bryan deny the
report? No doubt Mr.. Bryan's atti
tude toward the negro voters is very

There is comfort in the knowledge so
often expressed, that DR.. Kilmer's
Swamp-Root, the great kidney remedy,
fulfills every wish in curing rheumatism,
pain in the back, kidneys, liver, bladder
and every part of the urinary passage.
It corrects inability to hold water
and scalding pain in passing it, or bad
affects following use of liquor, wine or
peer, and overcomes that unpleasant ne
cessity of being compelled to go often
during the day, and to get up many
times during the night. The mild and
the extraordinary effect of Swamp-Root
is soon realized. It stands the highest
for its wonderful cures of the most dis
tressing cases. If you need a medicine
