7, 189. Senator Sherman has made a I speech advocating the repeal of his own bill. This causes some doubt of the propriety of the repeal. A number of the banks that recently closed business are re suming operation, and indications point to easier fiinancialj conditions.

MORRISON. Verry Truly, Perry Mr Daney's Opinion of Hatters Mr Editor; Mulberry is left againr just as I expected, as there seems to be no dependence in the leaders of either party or justice in the distribution of offices. -Mulberry township, the home of my-; childhood has some as solid Democrats as ever lived, who by their efforts have gained fully fifty per cent for the party. They are Democrats, office or no office. But they deserve something by meiit, and yet all', the paying offices have been given to other men to stop a racket! Democracy says give office to those who do the work, racket or no racket.

We must do right if we stand. Policy wont hold out long. To my old friends in Mulberry, I would say go and vote the the grand old Democratic ticket, but don't waste any time or money on the election, save it for your families. Dont beleive such stuff as that "Elias makes his own selections." The deputy collector may have no control in the matter; He is a clever man and would not tell a story about it. But there is some one.

who is running the thing in "Wilkes. Elias has some one to prompt him General principal did not make many of the appointments in Wilkes, but policy did it to save a racket and a fuss. Leaders, be careful don't slight the true worker for policy's sake. Elias onght to know also that Wilkes can furnish her own officers instead of sending in a brancy gauger from his own town to draw the salary some of the Wilkes people ought have. True Democrats, stand A.

C. Dancy. Scottville, Alleghany Co. Many people, not aware of tho dangers of constipation, Deglect the proper remedy till the habit becomes chronic, or inflaiuatiou or stop- pige results. A doee or two of Ayer'a Pills in the beginning would have prevented all this.

Attention In time to any irregularity of the Liver, or Bowels may prevent serious consequences. Indigestion, headache, nau-sea, bilious ness, ana ver-Jtigo indicate certain func tional derangements, the best remedy for which is Ayer's Pills. "Purely vegetable, sugar-coated, easy to take and quick to assimilate, this is the ideal family medicine the most popular, safe, and useful aperient in pharmacy. Mrs. M.

A. Bkockwell, Harris, says: "Ayer's Cathartic Pills cured me of sick iache and my husband of neuralgia. We lere is Rlst Rattor Ml Arf a v. and have induced many to use it." Thirty-five years ago this Spring, I was run down by hard work and a succession of Colds, which made me so feeble that it was an effort for me to walk. I consulted the doctors, but kept sinking lower until I had given up all hope of ever being better.

Happening to be in a store, one day, where medicines were sold, the proprietor noticed my weak and sickly appearance, and after a few questions as to my health, recom-j mended me to try Ayer'a Pills. I had little faith in these any other medicine, but concluded, at last, to take his advice and try a box. Before I had used them all, I was very much better, and two boxes cured me. Iam now 80 years old; but I believe that If it had not been for Ayer's Pills, I should have been in my grave long ago. I buy 6 boxes every year, which make 210 boxes up to this time, and I would no more be without them than without bread." H.

I am a Caldwellian and can vouch for the truth of both. A week after the assassination of Lincoln when every body tn. Caldwell was as blue as a Presbyterian on Sunday a noted wag from the neighborhood of Leightown came up the Yadkin riveJ and announced to some people siting on the fence that he had met the" Devil and his staff i id ing fast; he inquired "what's the news?" and his santanic magesty yelled back that Abe Lincoln had arrived'and he had abdicated and would henceforth live in Wilkes. Away back in the seventies, Coot Jones was on his way home from the Legislature, driving over the -warrior gap road, He came suddenly on a lot of negro women fighting and scratch ing like hyenas. Coot looked at the scrimmage a minute and alighting from his buggy went into the croud and demanded an explanation.

They were fighting about a poplar sapling clothes pole. Mr Jones tried moral suasion hut was quickly drowned out. "As he could not get a hearing he went back to the buggy took an unloaded pistol from his valise and charged" on the crowd again telling them if they didn't stop that fighting he would shoot into the crowd and layout dozen of them; that he had just Raleigh where he had beeniKaking laws and he was going to carryf 'thein. out i the last one of them- women had to shutmp then and there and go to the braneh and cut each one a pole of their own.
