rIsHERMEN's LUCK.

FIsHERMEN's LUCK.
Notwithstanding the discouraging out
look Sunday morning when everyone
awoke to find it raining in torrents, the
fishermen arrived in punches, all eager for
boats, but as most of the boats had been
let earlier in the week, there were no ex-
ira ones to be had, and Capt Lord had all
he could hire in commission.
1t looked doubtful about anyone getting
any fish under such conditions, but along
toward train-time the successful ones APP
peared with their prizes.
During the week several were landed.
Tuesday John Webster landed two sal
mon, John Bolden one OF lbs; Mr.
Allen, salmon which together weighed
10 lbs; Walter Morse, salmon; William
Miller, salmon; Henry Glaster and Mr..
Wing, 2S-lb. salmon; Mr.. Lewis, 2 salmon,
5 and 10 lbs.
But the largest catch was brought up
p. Eldridge and w. I'll. Titus There were
four salmon weighing 8Is. s. 8 and 81 lbs,
GLIB. black bass, and IL Id. trout
Harry w. Haynes was another success
full Ellsworth fishermen earlier in the
week, he adding salmon weighing 11B
pounds to the two tive-pounders pre-
viously caught.
Others taken Sunday were: Frank
Gross, salmon, a lbs, Carl Mckinley, sal
mon, Az lbs, Y. Mcnamara, salmon, s lbs,
Eugene Savage, salmon, lbs, William
Givren, salmon, 10 pounds, c. l. Staples,
Ellsworth, salmon, lbs.
Monday Mr.. Lewis landed his eight
pound salmon of the bridge. The smelts
are now running in Mann brook, and it is
expected fishing will be still better.

York Stock EXCHANGE for period
OF SIX years. It means gift to
the enemies of the Republic of the
power to issue or retire one-half
million dollars, exciting specula-
tlon, or compellil e disaster, ac-
cording to whichever best suits
their betting book.
PANIC OF 1907.
We condemn the Republican
party whose policies and conduct
produced in 1907 the most acute
and disastrous panic in the his
tory of the United States. The
effect of it's policy has precipitat-
ed panic, blighted industry and
trade with prolonged depression,
closed factories, reduced work and
wages, halted enterprise, and Grip
pied American production. Un-
der this Republican panic suffer-
Ing has been universal, soup houses
have been established, and
strikes have been of almost daily
occurrence. The Republican party
has been in control of the nation
al government in all of its
branches for the past eleven years,
and now in the midst OF abundant
crops, and boundless national re-
sources it has brought about the
most destructive panic in our his
tory. We point to the fact that
every panic which occurred since
the formation of the Republican
party was precipitated while that
party was in power.
CRUMPACKER's MEASURE.
\ We condemn the Republican
party for its efforts in the nation
al Congress to revive the bitter
nesses of the civil war, and renew
again the bloody.shirt issue, by
tacking to the campaign publicity
bill, Crumpacker's Southern rep
resentatlon reduction measure,
The passage of this bill through
the lower house Of Congress was
an act of cheap, hypocritical pol
itic, designed to corral the
negro vote in the doubtful States
for their Presidential nominee.
ExTRAvAGANCE.
| We denounce the Republican
party for it's failure to enact dur
ing the last session of Congress
campaign publicity bill; but the
people of the country need not ex-
pect such measure to come from
a party that thrives on corruption
money, nnd which could not carry
on campaign, or win national
election without corruption funds
from favored interests.
TARIFF.
| We denounce tho present in
famous, and trust-bleeding tariff,
imposed upon the people by the
Republican party, and renew our
demand for it's immediate revis.
ion to the end that all unfair bur-
dens shall be removed, and espe-
cially those upon the necessaries
of life, and those that enable the
trusts to extort from the people
unreasonable profits and to sell
their products to consumers at
home at higher prices than is
charged for the same goods to
foreign consumers.

LEXINGTON AND DAVIDSON COUNTY.
Three Funerals in One Day in the Same

Lexington Dispatch, July sth.

Lexington Dispatch, July Sth.
People from various parts of th
county tell the same stories abou
the illegal manufacture and sal
of whiskey in Davidson. Thos
living on roads leading tror
Davie county say that wagons an
buggies with whlskey aboard pas
their homes continually. A MAJ
from Silver Hill says that he i
certain there has been q still ii
operation in his section for 81:
months past. People from tn
Arnold community say that whis
key ia sold there, some believing
that it is made in the section
others that it comes from Davie
One man says three or four loads
pass his place weekly. The loca.
officers have heard there is 6
blockade brandy still between
here and Trading Ford already il
operation. It is true that there
IS nothing definite in these re.
ports, but they certainly indicate
that the law is being violated.
In yesterdays election on spe'
cial school tax in Tyro, District
No. 1, every vote was cast for the
tex. This is a glorious record for
Tyro. It IS the first township
and No. is the first district in
Davidson county to vote for this
special school tax. Tyro leads
and now let the county follow
until Davidson is filled with spe-
cial tax districts.
DR.. George L. Leyburn, pastor
of the Presbyterian church here,
left yesterday for Salisbury to
enter the Whitehead Stokes sani-
forum to take an operation for
appendicitis. DR.. Leyburn has
had three attacks at intervals dur
ing the past two years, and re.
Gently was quite i'll for a week.
He visited DR.. Whitehead the
other day and an operation was
decided upon. There aremany who
anxiously await the news of sue
cessful operation and his recov-
cry.
Perhaps never before in the his
tory of Lexington were there three
funerals in the same grave yard
in one day, as was the case here
Monday.
The case of A. F. Wilson
against the Southern for injuries
received was compromised by his
attorney, Wade H. Phillips, Esq,
for 5000. The plaintiff, who lives
at Linwood, was front brakeman
on train that was wrecked
near Lima, Va, year ago, when
the engine and tender jumped the
track.
People who eat continue to COM
plain that although money is
scarce and work scarcer and the
panic in full swing, rations are
still high and eatables command
as much and more than they do
in much larger towns. 1t is good
on the folks who have it to sell,
but it is death to the frog-the
town fellow who is nearly out OF
a job.
The continuous rains of Thurs.
day night and Friday morning
were about as hard as we eve1

Doubtless some damage was done
