dogs that chase over we'll pad

Humane Society in some large

If these harry brntes have

Should Have Liberty of Thought and
Action.

Messrs. Editors: - Liberty OF
thought and speech is one Of the most
precious ideals of modern civiliZa-
tion," says the Shelby Highlander.
Why does the paper leave out the
word action after the word speech in
the above excerpt? Is it that he knows
that in the general election the COM
ing year the masses are to be taken
by the elbow or nap of the neck and
voted as este tonic" would have
them vote; and failing in this, to be
counted as "este tonic" wishes them
to vote? This is the work Of the
machine that ''este tonic" has inaug-
urated as Governor Vance foretold.
II carried out in the solid South, as
may happen, the results to follow
may be best described in the words
of Horace Greeley. In speaking OF
the Democratic panic of 1867, he
said: These are emphatically hard
times The money value OF nearly
every description of property has
suddenly deprecated from Is to SO
per cent. The farmers produce must
generally be sold at these prices"
Thus Greedy describes a Democratic
panic.
AS less cotton was ginned up to
the first day of December, 1911, than
in the year 1908 by 271,173 bales,
then We can see the effects of four
months session of Congress simply to
draw pay, taking up the time in dis
cussing the cotton schedule and that
of wool led by a mule man from a
mule State. Why should the solid

State Treasurer B. R. Lacy de-
clared TO some newspaper men a few
days ago that unless the sheriffs of
the counties come forward with great
promptness with settlements Of State
taxes for 1911 within the next few
weeks the State Treasury will be
very seriously embarrassed. Already
there is an overdraft of s12,11S on
the general fund, except for the
100000 in hand from the sale of
the $250.00O bonds for the State
building excavations for which are
now under way.

4 CHARMING WOMAN

is one who is lovely in face, form,
mind and temper. But it's hard for
woman to be charming without
health. A weak, sickly woman will
be nervous and irritable. Constipa-
ton and kidney poisons show in
pimples, blotches, skin eruptions and
wretched complexion. But Electric
Bitters always prove a godsend to
women who want health, beauty and
friends. They regulate Stomach
Liver and Kidneys, purify the blood ;
give strong nerves, bright eyes, pure
breath. smooth, velvety skin, lovely
complexion and perfect health. Try
them. soc at all druggist.

Editor The Caucasian:-So lays

Edgecombe, County, and called him
a number of times before l could get
him to come out to the gate. l asked
why | couldn't make him hear, that I
had about decided he was not at
home He said: We'll, will tell
you; I was reading Senator Butler
Raleigh Speech and was so interest
ed I didn't want to quit" Continu-
ing, he said: IF I were in Daniels
and Simmons place and could prove
the charges on Butler, then he would
have me to whip. But Butler is
right; he had nothing to do with
those bonds; for if he had Simmons
and Daniels would have met him
when he spoke in Raleigh"
Then he asked me to go in his
house so he could read to me certain
parts of the speech, but l told him l
had read the entire speech. Then
he told me it was the best thing he
had seen, and that he wished every
man in the county could read that
speech. REPUBLICAN,
