We are truly glad to note that
IN some quarters efforts are being
made to prepare some accurate
records of the part the Southern
soldiers of different counties and
communities took in the great
civil war. This is something that
should have been done ere this.
Of curse it will take much time
and patient toll to produce some.
thing that Is worth while. Not
every man Is fit for such q ser
vice. Such a historian should
first be just, he should not merely
be able to lay aside prejudice and
and forget scores of personal me
mics that he will delight to give
only a passing line, but he should
be a mali WITHOUT prejudice, mall
ice and personal enemies. A his
tory written by enc net so consti-
tuted will be worse than worth

There was considerable effort
made by the Adam Forepaugh
and Sells Bros circus. a member
of the show trust, to injure the
Sells-Floto circus which exhibi-
ted here last Friday. The form
er aggregation got out circulars
stating that they would not ex-
hibit in Salisbury until 1910, en-
deavering to create the impression
that the Sells-Floto people had
cancelled their date here aid thus
injure their business. In addition
to this, where possible, the bill
boards were covered with the ad-
vertlsements for the Barnum and
Baily circus, another member of
the trust, but not satisfied with
these efforts, the Barnum and
Baily people sent a small ten
cent affair down to China Grove
IN an endeaver to keep the people
of that section of the county away
from Salisbury on the day of the
Sells-Floto show here. These
methods have deceived some and
They may have kept q few dollars
out of the shows Golfers, but the
sentiment of our people quickly
c~rystalized in favor of the Sells
Floto people, and it is a question
whether the Barnum & Bailey
show, or the Adam Forepaugh
and Sells Bros show, could scare
up a corporal's guard should they
wish to exhibit here any time
within the next year or so.
The good people of North Carroll
IA do not appreciate such mean
hess and they are not slow to show
their resentment. The theory of
trusts Is very beautiful, but in
practice they are most heartless
and contemplate, as the conduct
of this circus trust shows. It is
we'll to let them and their pro-
ducts severely alone.
The sells-Floto circus gave Sal
lsbury n of the finest exhibi.
lions IN every particular that has
been seen in the South for wears.
Praises for them come from all
who saw their splendid exhibitions
here last Friday.

done from the fact that the Board

Mrs. R.. B. Brittian, also of

Recently we noticed an explr-
ing effort of some Boyden wor-
shipper to show what he accom-.
pllshed while he served as thu
mayor Of Salisbury. This final
exhaust was in the shape of al.
article narratlng how many square
yards of bitulithic, brick and ma
cadam streets the administrations
had put down, also the number of
feet of sewerage, etc., but it failed
to state how it was accomplised
and what it cost per yard Or foot.
The measure of a man, or an adj

or yards, was laid for such an
enormous amount of money, but
how many was laid for so small a
sum. For any one to say that the
Boyden administrations vera not
'recklessly ex%travagant is simply
to show his ignorance, or, a
complete surrender to such

 No other medicine for woman's ills has received such widespread and un- qualified endorsement. No other med icine We know of has such a record of cures of female ills as has Lydia l.. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound.
 For more than 30 years 1t has been curing female complaints such as inflammation, uleeration, local weak. nesses, fibroid tumors, Irregularities, periodic pains, backache, indigestion and nervous prostration, and it is unequailed for carrying women safely through the period of change of life.

Had his proiectile been adopted, he might have remained mere canHon-b ball inventor.
 When, however. the French emperor rejected his new shot. on the ground that no cannon was sufficiently strong to lire 1t, Dsssemer simply set to work to md some stronger material for cannon. lie knew little of metals, but began a careful study of them. At that time, iron. not steel. was usel for rallWays. hif guns and nearly every structure requiring metal Steel was hard to make and was far too expen- sive for common use. Few men were employed in working on it. and these used a tedious, laborious process in it's production
 But Bessemer was not content with the modes then in use He knew that steel was an alloy of iron and carbon In certain proportions. and he invented the following process for making it.
 He drove blast of air through masses of pig iron that was in process ot fusing until il was cleared of car bon. Then, by introducing the proper proportion of carbon, he found he had an excellent quality of steel He could thus make steel far more rapidly than 1t had ever before been manufactured, and al mere fraction Of it's former high price. He also found that by blowing through molten pig iron until all it's carbon was oxidized he could produce fine grade of malleable iron.
 Steel became at bound one of the worlds foremost industries The United States at once took the lead in it's production. Before Bessemers in- yention our annual production of steel was about I1,S36 tons. A few years later it had risen to 3,019,9o6 tons a year. Bessepler was the father of steel rails. steel frames for sky. scrapers, steel ships, steel cannon aad modern armor-plate. His inventiog gave work to millions of men.

Wedding Fee in Installments.

The very night after the first appearance Of this advertisement the J. P. referred to was called upon to make good his bluff. Shortly after midnight a couple which had come in an automobile awakened him from his sleep and asked to be married under the installment plan offered in the advertisement And the J.
