The colored population of Smyrna
was not without their big Fourth.
They held Fair at Bethel A. M. E.
Church, had their booths, side show
and fortune tents and auto trips and
report generally good day. They
held creditable parade in the after
noon which was industrial in charac-
ter. Watson, the shoemaker, had an
exhibit, and China Potts had an ex-
hibit. A baseball game between
Middetown and Smyrna resulted in
victory for Smyrna, 8 to 2. The
Fair has been going on several
nights with profitable results and
has been very orderly. Many colored
folks attended the Ok Roast at
Byrd's Chapel, near Clayton and still
others attended the Booker Washing
ton Public meeting at Clayton.

Raleigh Post Office Seen of ARRAY

Raleigh, Aug 3.-There was a
fight in the Raleigh post Office
yesterday between Bedford
Brown, clerk, and Edward Hor-
ton, who has the contract of driv-
ing the mail to the union station.
There followed conflict between
the city police court and District
Attorney Fl. F. Seawel, of the
Federal court as to which has
jurisdiction, or rather as to
whether the police of the city
have the right to make arrest on
government property for breaches
of the peace. District Attorney
Seawen appeared in the police
court when the case was set for
trial and disputed the jurisdiction
Of the police court. Now the po-
lice justice is pouring over his
law books and couneelling with
the city attorney as to the scope
of his jurisdiction is such cases.
Many are wondering why the de-
PENDANTS would prefer to have the
ease up in the Federal court rs
the costs can but be several times
as heavy as in the police courts
even if the Federal judge let's
them off without fines. Neither
of the two men was seriously hurt,
although Horton knocked Brown
down.

THE DIFFERENCE.
This is from the Raleigh News
and Observer:

This is from the Raleigh News
and Observer:
The Democrats had contests
over public positions of trust.
When they came to elect an hon
ored servant as State Chairman, it
was done by reclamation. The
Radical convention has no contest
over positions of trust, for they
know the people Of North Carolina
will not elect any man they nomi-
nate Their only row is over who
shall be Boss and distribute the
pie"
Our esteemed contemporary has
sized up the situation exactly as it
is. The republicans of North Car
olina have no chance to carry the
state and they realize it. But a
big noise must necessarily be made
in order to attract the attention
of the powers that be, in Wash
ington, and induce the sending
here of a big campaign fund to be
pocketed by the faithful un-

hand in the distribution of that
slough, and he is going to fight

why Hendersonville Has The


HendersonviIle has the crowd,
and judging from the reports sent
in by Trustworthy men from the
other towns In the mountains,
Hendersonville has more visitors
today than all the other resorts
combined.
This is a broad assertion, but
it is, without doubt, absolutely
true.
It is not repeated here in any
Boosting spirit, but merely as an
interesting fact. OF course, there
is reason, as their advertisements
say, and that reason is this:
HendersonviIle has climatic adj
vantages which are peculiar to
itself, and among these advan-
tages is a complete and absolute
absence of any fog.
The atmosphere here is dry and
clear at all times. There is no
malaria here, no mosquitoes. The
pure water and the excellent
drainage are strong attractions,
but possibly the strongest attrae-
ton of all is the superb location
of the town.
Here you have mountain re-
sort, over 1850 feet above sea lev
ell, resting on the top of noun
tains and yet surrounded by some
of the highest peaks this side of
the Rockies. The town is as
level as many a city in the low
country, has superb and level
drives in every direction; and, as
has often been said, is the natural
location for a great city.
It is no wonder, then, that Hen
jacksonville has more tourists
within her gates today than any
other resort In the mountains.
The town is now comfortably full,
There are accommodations for
thousands more, it is true, for the
boarding house accommodations
have kept and will keep pace with
the growth of the town as a re
sort, but judging from present
indications the capacity of Hen
Jacksonville is going to be tested
to the limit before the season is
over.
The season o. 1910 is going to
be a record breaker. Tt is going
to surpass all other years, even
if the reports from other towns
indicate but a sprinking or a
handful of visitors there.
Hendersonville is now the re-
sort of the South-the crowds on
the streets show it, the increased
business being done by the mer-
chants, the increased postofice
receipts, and the nearly two hun
dred trunks left daily at the pas
senger depot, show it, too.

THE YOUNG MOTHER
AND THE FAT HOG.
State Board Of Health,s weekly
Article Prepared For The
Marrs.,a1,a,.a .,f a.. e4.4.

h
One time little mother, who
Twas only Is years old, began to
feel tired all the time. Her APP
petite had failed her for weeks
before the tired feeling came. Her
three little girls, once JOY In her
life, now became burden to her.
It was, "Mama,'' all Mama" all
day long. She never had motto
ed these appeals until the tired
feeling come. The mother also had
red spots on her cheeks, and a
slight dry cough One day, when
dragging herself around, forcing
her weary body to work, she felt
a sharpe but slight pain in her
chest, her head grew dizzy and
suddenly her mouth filed with
blood. The hemorrhage was not
severe, but it left her very weak.
The doctor she had consulted for
her cought and tired feeling pre-
scribed bitters made of alchol,
water and gentian. This gave
her false strength for a while, for
| it checked out her little reserve.

When the hemorrhage occurred
she and all her neighbors knew
she had consumption, and the doc
tor should have known it and told
her months before.
Now she wrote to the State
Board of Health and said. CT am
told that consumption in its early
stages can be cured by outdoor
life, continued rest, and plenty of
plain, good food. | do not want
to die. / want to live and raise
my children to make them good
citizens. Where can / 60 to get
{ well? The reply was: tThe
great Christian State of Indiana
had not yet risen to the mighty
econmony of saving the lives of
little mothers from consumption.
At present, the only place where
you can go is a grave. However,
the State will care for your child
rem in an orphan asylum after
you are dead, and then in a few
years a special officer will be paid
to find home for them. But
save your llife-Never, That is
cranky idea," for a member on
the floor of the Sixty-ffth As
sembly said so. Besides" said
he, lit isn't business; the State
cant afford it." So the little
mother died of the preventable
and durable disease, the home
was broken up and the children
were taken to the orphan asylum.
A big fat hog one morning
found he had a pain in his belly.
He squealed loudly and the far
mer came out out of his house to
see what was the matter. "He's
got the hog cholery," said the
hired man. So the farmer tele-
graphed Secretary Wilson of the
United States Agricultural De
partment (who said the other day
he had three thousand experts in
animals and plant Diseases and
the reply was: Cert, I'll send you
a man right away" Sure enough,
the man came. He said he was a
D. V. S., and he was too. He had
a Government syringe and a bot
tie of Government medicine in his
handbag, ana he went Tor the

cranky for the Government to do
this, and it could afford the ex-
pense, for the hog could be turn
ed into ham, sausage, lard and
bacon.
Anybody, even a fool, can see
it would be cranky for the State
to save the life of little mother,
and it could not afford it, either.
Moral: Be a hog and be worth
saving.

Her Scalp Itched Intolcrably.


Just about two years ago, some
form Of humor appeared on my scalp.
The beginning was a slight itching,
but it grew steadily worse until, when
l combed my hair the scalp became
raw and the ends of the comb-teeth
would be wet with blood. Most of the
time there was an intolera BILE itching,
in painful, burning way, very much
as bad, raw burn, if deep, will itch
and smart when first beginning to heal.
Combing my hair was positive tor

terribly because of the blood and
scabs. This continued growing worse

a short time, that awful singing pain
would commence and then I would
wake up nearly wild with the torture.
A neighbor said 1t must be salt rheum.
Having used Cuticura Soap merely as
toilet soap before, now decided to
