 The Ugs of -rugs
 Drugs are va>.able in cases in which the power os sleep IS lost and wakeful ness has become habit. No one should take drugs for Sleep without the advice of physician. Drug habits are worse than sleeplessness. The same causes which prevent sleep are often those which would easily lead the victim to dependence upon drugs Morphine habits have thus been formed. Sul phonal and trioual and allied drugs should be avoided, as they act on the heart, and if long continued will cause disease of that organ.
 Drugs are useful to break up the habit of sleeplessness; and in cases where, through long continued lack of sleep, the person has become weak and run down, then under the advice of physician take the remedies which are thought suitable to the case A cause of sleeplessness which has not been men toned is poverty of the blood In such cases the patient needs iron and totiics and should take them.
 One of the best remedies for sleep lessness is electricity. The galvaffc cur rent IS used, as that is more sedatve than the afaradic current, The sfaradic current is the one that makes the bug zing sound, and is the current given by the ordinary cheap batteries. That cur rent is exciting and will not promote sleep Electricity should be administered by one who has knowledge and practice.

To the voters of the 18th Judicial

the district. the people demand to know
of my position on the County Unit and
blind tiger bills proposed by local OPP

They want to know how all candidates
for office stand on this question. have
always been in favor of and voted for
local option. and am unqualifiedly in
favor Of the enactment, by the next
legislature, of both Of the above named
bills for the suppression of the whisky
traffic. so declared myself at Lam
caster last Monday in joint debate with
my opponent. Judge M. C. Sauhey, and
called upon him to publicly state his
position on these questions which so
deeply concern and are of such vital and
far-reaching Importance to the welfare
of the people of this district. In an
swer to my demand for public declara-
ton from him upon these questions he
declared that he had voted against local
option in the recent local option election
in Lincolnlcounty and is opposed to 1t
now. He also declared that both the
purchaser and the seller of liquor. lille
gally sold and bought, ought each to be
punished by fine, which would multiply
beyond measure the number Of blind
tigers, and increase by thousand fold,
the whisky traffic in the district. This
emanates from and is just what the
remnant of the whisky people in Ken
lucky wish Incorporated in all local OPP
ton legislation. By putting penalty
on the buyer as well as the seller of
liquor, It makes each of them incom-
petent to testify against the other, be-
cause neither the seller nor the buyer
can be made before the courts to give
any information in regard to the illegal
sale and purchase because of the old.
well known principle of law which for
bids the courts from requiring any one
to give testimony or Information which
would incriminate himself. 1t my be
seen at glance, that blind tigers which
have only the seller and the buyer
present at the sale. would be able to
carry onsthe liquor traffic without the
slightest fear of danger of being pun
ished. Boot-leggers also would multi
ply and become popular, and every
community and every cross-road would
be cursed with their presence l shall
not be able for lack of time, to meet

this method of defining my position on
these vital.questions. and also stating
my opponents position as declared by

man and an excellent gentleman. The
services Of Ex-Gov. ]. c. W. Beckham

possession Of the paper four years ago,
when it was in a badly rundown state,
and after improving it mechanically and
editorially, got 1t on paying basis and
besides giving his patrons an excellent
paper seven days in the week. he has
made money on the enterprise. He is
undecided as to future business but will
continue to live in Lexington. He has
been in editorial harness for nearly 35
years and is deserving Of a long rest,
which his friends hope he will take.
His valedictory and Gov. Beckham's
salutatory make interesting reading
ing matter, which we would produce
but for the lack of space. We shall
continue to look for the daily visits of
the Journal as in the past, believing
that Editor Beckham will make the ed

Fire in WachoVia Bank Building.

Latt night between eight and
nine o'clock, DR.. Woodson, who
has an Office in the second story of
the Wachovia Loan and Trust
Building on the corner of North
Main and Council streets, noticed
his gas light go out and heard an
explosion. He Immediately in
vestigate1 and on the third floor
found the wooden and plastered
partitions, just at the head of the
stairs, to be ablaze, the half-inch
gas pipe, located at this point,
having bursted, was furnishing
fuel for the flames. The exact
cause of the fires origination is
not known, but as it seems to have
started at a point where a num-
Der of wires connect and radiate.
it is thought the nearby wood was
ignited from one of two causes
i. g.: possibly from defective wiz
ing, probably from all exposed
wire, OF perhaps, a fuse-plug blew
out. At any rate the building
was found to be on fire, the fire
department was called out and
soon had the flames under control
and saved the building from de-
struction. The damage will prob
ably amount to several hundred
dollars, covered by insurance .

Bigg's Seven-ear Prolific Corn!
Over 100 Bushels per Acre.
SEED FOR SALE

Bigg's Seven-ear Prolific Corn is one of the wonders in the apri.
cultural world to-day. Last year the undersigned planted 90 acres
IN this variety and secured a wonderful result. In looking over
the field not u single stalk was found that bore less than three
ears, and many were found that had four, five, SIX, eight and ten
The 20 acres produced just 2 40 bushels of good, hard corn, max.
ing an average of 107 bushels to the acre. This is claimed to be
the largest yield ever heard of in this section of the State. The
seed for this planting was bought of L. A. Carr, Durham, N. G..
who produced an average Of 1888 bushels per acre.
When the Farmers Institute was held in Salisbury last Anonst
and a car load of machinery was used in demonstration WORK on
land adjoining the above, Mr.. Meacham, superintendent of the
States test farm in lredell county, stated to those present: Sam
Carter, Joe Hall, Rev J. M L. Lyerly and others, that he had not
seen ally better corn III the State.
Col. J.S. Cunningham, of Cunningham, N. c., a member of
the State Board OF Agriculture. and one of the best farmers in the
State, came to Salisbury last SEPTEMBER, and, after seeing this
held, stated that he had never seen better corr, and that f. was
well worth one cent per grain. He sold several ears of it, at the
ra11road station III Salisbury, at 81 90 per ear.
The above is given to show the extra high quality and value Of
this variety OF corn and this lot i'll particular. 1t is the very best.
most prolific ard most profitable corn that can be raised anywhere.

Suit to be Brought.

It is announced that suit is to
be instituted against the Southern
Railway Company, to recover
damages caused by the recent fire
at the Kincaid Veneering Plant.
The loss resulting from the fire is
placed at about $4,000. with &c.
500 insurance. 1t is alleged that
the fire was scaused by a spark
from a posing locomotive. The
concern was in the hands of re-
ceivers, but stated that this &C.
ton was not forced, but was ELL
tirely voluntary on the part of the
stockholders as it was dslred to
close out the business. The sum
to be asked as damages has not
been stated, but it will doubtless
represent tie difference between
the amount of damage done and
the insurance carried.
