IN MEMORY OF J. J. sH1pMAN
A Kind Friend, a Faithful Soldier,
an Upright Citizen and q Chris
tian Gentleman.
(BreVard News. J

AD4C f
Born in Henderson county, Oct.
25, 1888, and having been reared
in a country home, he imbibed the
elements necessary to make a natu-
rally strong constitution, and was.
surrounded by such environments
in his youth that there was instill-
ed in his soul the ideals of an I'M
sullied character. As a friend he
was always true and faithful; al
ways ready to forgive an injury
done and never forgetting a kind
neSss shown.
AT his hospitable home and
around his festal board men, wom-
en- and children by the hundreds
have had their thirst quenched and
their hunger appeased. In that
home the kinsman was made hap
Ply, the friend entertained and the
stranger welcomed
AS a soldier of the civil wal he.
was never known to shirk a duty
nor disobey a command. Whether
marching through snow or rain or
facing the cannon in the most her
ole battle, he was always at his
post serving his country. And
though a member of an army de-
feated by hunger and privation,
yet he shines through it all a vic
torious soldier, and his devotion
and interest shown in this cause
entities him to the honor for hav-
ing kept alive the "old soldiers
organization" for the many years
past.
And when he laid down his
Sword of war" he picked up his
"plowshare of peace and for the
remaining .46 years of his life he
has served his country as a pri-
Vate and public citizen As a pri-
vate citizen he was loyal, law-abid-
ing, always on the side of justice
and morality.
He was a member of Company
q, 18th Regiment, Capt. JOS. P.
Beaver, and as a token of respect
and love for the deceased the fol-
lowing war comrades and soldiers
had charge of and accompanied
his body in a procession to the
graves: j. M. .Hamlin, T. L. Cash,

wooden schedule is a question that
arthodox democrats appear I'M
able to solve. There is neither
justice or consistency in censuring
senator Simmons and those who
stood with him for a small duty
on lumber, if the. decision of the
democratic caucus to retain wool
on the dutiable list is right. And
the country approves that.

ing Justice of the peace and de-
puty clerk Of the superior court
of Transylvania county for q
oaarter of q century, all of which
positions he has filed with honor
to himself and with credit to his
country.
AS q Christian he accepted Christ
as his Saviour and united with the
Baptist church in early life.
While he was honest in his convic-
lions and earnest in his devotiOns
to his church, still he was kind
and generous to all Christian de-
nominations. While he was firm
in his decisions for righteousness,
yet he was gentle and forgiving to
fallen humanity.
He died April 28,. 1911, after
intense suffering of one week. His
funeral was conducted in Brevard
Baptist church in the presence of
a large concourse of people, and
his body buried in Brevard ceme-
terry. Thus a long and useful life
is ended. Peace and rest to his
remains. He has gone never to

Governnr Woodrow Wilson
says he believes in the initiative,
referendum and recall, except as
to the judiciary. This sounds bet
ter. The Governor goes on to say
that changed conditions needed
can be brought about without
invoking the application of the
new methods proposed if the peo-
pie should determine to take gov
ernmental matters in their own
hands. Thus it appears that the
New jersey executive, who is
prominently mention in connection
with the democratic presidential
nomination, favors Mr.. Bryan s
new pet theory of the initiative,
referendum and recall as a last
resort in restoring former condi-
tons under the rule of the people.

A man elected to represent the
desires and interests of the peo-
pie should surely be willing to
subordinate personal views and
preferences at all times to con-
form to the wishes of his c~onstitn-
ents. No public officer should
consider himself greater than
those who created him. Let the
will of the people prevail.

WILSON IN LINE.

oON0IuOE oOurOW W1ISOu, Vi
New Jersey, who has been ''swing-
ing around the circle" for some
weeks part of which time was
p%roftably spent in North Caro-
lima, stopped over a couple of days
on his return north to view con-
ditlons from the National Capital.
The Jersey executive landed in
Washington the day following
Representative Underwood's bill
revising the wool schedule of the
tariff law had been approved by
the democratic caucus, despite the
vigorous protest of Mr.. William
Jennings Bryan, and an express
sion of his Wilson s. views upon
the matter in controversy was i'm
mediately sought. And there
was no hesitancy about that ex-
preston, either. He commended
In the strongest terms, the action
of the Ways and Means Commit
tee and approved, endorsement by
the democratic caucus. Governor
Wilson thinks the democrats in
congress are fully equal to the
task before them and believes in
the caucus plan of settling their
differences. A democratic caucus
for the last fifteen years has sig
nifed very little, but now it is call
ed upon to decide upon really con-
structive policies.
Touching the recent visit OF
Governor Wilson to Washington
the following press dispatch is in
teresting:
After a day of political confer
ences, Gov. Woodrow Wilson of
New Jersey left Washington to-
night to resume his gubernatorial
duties at Trenton, following a
tour of the West and South.
His visitors were from all sec
lions Of the country, including
Senators, Representatives and prl-
vate citizens. Senators MARITIME
of New Jersey and Gore of Okla
homa were among the first callers
on the prospective presidential
candidate.
All the conferences were open.
To the members of the House par
ticularly Governor Wilson ex
pressed repeated congratulations.
He said that the vigor with which
the House had taken hold Of It's
work had inspired the country
with renewed confidence in the
Democratic party. The action OF
the caucus of Democratic Repres-
entatives in voting for a. reduc-
ton of the tariff on wool to 20 pei
cent ad valorem received lis
hearty commentator, despite the
fact that William j. Bryan had
warned the Democrats against any
other course than taking all the
duty off.
What the Governor had to say
in regard to the Democratic can
Gus was summarized in these
words:
"The resolution passed by The
caucus is a very frank Statement
and iustifes itself by showing thai
the Democratic party is trying tt
do the best that is possible arr
practicable in the circumstances
l mean that when we are revising
a system, such as the tariff as /;
whole, we a make compensa
tons Of revenue along the who'll,
line. But In revising it schedul,
by schedule, we cannot make thes,
compensations, except in the in
dividual schedules. That is on,
Of the penalties of the step by stel
process. 1t does not seem to IN,
that there is any abandonment O
principle in the action taken. I
looks to me as though the Deiao
cratic principles had been reas
serted. Of course ] am in favor O
free wool materials, including fre,
raw wool, but every Democrat

their part in keeping faith with
the people by passing Mr.. Taft's
reciprocity measure and the far
mers free list bill, and the coun-
try anticipates that the senate
will, at least, pass the reciprocity
agreement. The democratic par
ty is committed to the principle
involved and democratic senators
will do the themselves credit and
the country a service by support
ing the House bill without amend
ment or revision. There is nc
necessity for spending weeks aud
months quibbling over petty diff
erences, when a great principle is
involved and a plain duty con.
fronts them.
The country is anxious for the
House bill to become a law anG
the senator, or representative,
who opposes the measure on the
pretext of hurtful results to the
farmer, or any particular class of
citizens, simply mistakes the SEN
timent of the people. Opponents
who have been "solicitions" of the
farmers interests may as well ca
pituIate, for the ''horney-handet
sons of toll" are not afraid of be-
ing ruined. Below is a piece of
news recently carried by the New
-ork American touching the
views entertained by Georgia far
mers upon the reciprocity pact,
which does not sustain the claim
that the passage of the bill would
be ruinons to the agricultural IN
dustry of the country. Here is
the way Georgia farmers talk,
through the New York paper, and
farmers in other states of the
South stand with them:
"The seventy-fve thousand
members of the Farmers Union
in Georgia, fairly and Overwhelm-
ingly representatives of the two
hundred thousand farmers of the
State, sent today to the New York
American, through their official
and trusted representative their
assurance that the agricultural
mass of Georgia, which is the re-
preventative state of the South,
heartily and enthusiastically in
dorsed the house bill on reciproc-
ity, now waiting on the desk of
the American Senate.
After all the subterfuge and
false representations of the Lum-
Der Trust and of the Paper Trust,
the answer is coming thick and
fast from the representatives of
honest agriculture throughout the
country, to prove that the good
sense of the producers andtoil-
ers Of the soil stands for the great
reciprocity pact, indorsed by the
Democatic party and by the Re-
publican party and by the Repub-
lican president.
A week ago a Chicago newspap-
er polled the agricultural news
papers and officials Of the central
and further West, and 70 per cent
Of these papers and officials re
presenting the farmers of the West
declared for reciprocity"
Republican insurgents in the
Senate and all democratic senators
ought to get together at once ard
pass the House bill. It is the EN-.
bcdiment of a principle they have
long been advocating. The REQ
lie are OF going to be deceived
by any amendment offered, how.
ever plausible it NAV be.

 Registration and voting are public duties which every vo,er is supposed to perform, but 1t should be remembered that the man who works eight or ten hours a day with only brief respite for lunch is too tired to be particular iy patriotic during the refleshmeut and recreation hour in the middle oI tn. day.
 Even with the best of intentions formed the evening bcfore-the tired employe will delay the matter of reg istratIun during the noon hour because of lack of energy and ambition after d trying morning The necessary duty will be put off until another time and the other time never comes.
 These are the reasons why it Is an excellent idea for employers who really have the best interests of the city at heart to let their people of for an hour in the course of the day with the un- derstandinE that they will use that time-or at least a portion of it in registering.
