DAVENPORT. There'll be a change of the moon text Sunday, but the moon, when it conies to the changing business, isn't in it at all with the weather we've had this snmmer. With the primaries which were held in Georgia Wednesday came to a close one of the stormiest Democratic campaigns ever held in any southern state. Hoke Smith, the Atlanta Journal's candidate, canied the day overwhelmingly against Clarke Howell, the candidate of the Atlanta Constitution, who was regarded as his most formidable opponent. The campaign was a war between newspapers as well as a contest between candidates and the public not in Georgia alone but in neighbor ing communities will breathe sieh of relief now that the unseemly scramble is over.

How ever, North Carolina folks ought to be satisfied with Hoke Smith who is a tar heel from Lincoln county. The tremendous importance the work which the farmers through their cotton growers as SDciations, are trying to do, not only for themselves but for th South, may be seen in the singl consideration that it they can pet a cent a pound more for their cotton it means $60,000, 000 more of wealth added to th South. If they get a cent less it means a loss of $60,000,000, This may be easily computed The cotton crop of the South is about 12,000,000 bales annually A difference of one cent a pound amounts to $5 per bale or $60, 000,000 for the crop. The differ ence between 9-cent cotton and 14-cent cotton means to the South. In their efforts to protect themselves and to make their great money crop brine what it is worth the farm ers ought not to find it difficult to acquire the moral support their neighbors in other callings When Republicans fall and go to tossing "nigger" out at each other, it need not be ex pectea tnatjaey would care a rap for anything except the hoped-for'favorable effect such a cry might have upon hastening ineir own approach to the pie counter.

In a communication in the Charlotte Observer this week which emanated from dis appointed Republican sources in Gastonia, there was an effort to make it appear that there was a regular negro clerk in the post office here! the absurdity of which appears in the supposition that such a thing could be here in a white supremacy community with no one protesting but the disappointed pie-hunters. But when, with the knowledge that two young white ladies were employed as clerks in the post office, these same malcontents declare that they regard their esteemed negro "as about the best qualified attache connected with the office." the limit of low down, dirty factional depravity seems to have been reached.

Senator Tillman Doat 1 Not Think President Treated Him Courteously. Louisville Courier Journal, 18th. Senator Tillman, of South Carolina, spoke at Seven Hills Chautauqua last night He was given a most coraiai welcome and his accusations against those who were responsible for a better railroad bill not being adopted by Congress were enj thusiastically applauded. In giving the review of the rate rate bill be related the incident which cansed him to "cut" the acquaintance of President Roosovelt. "If I was a gentle man when McLaunn called me a liar I was more a gentleman after I had resented it," said the Senator He declared 'that no well-bred gentleman would have recalled an invitation and that he would never speak to Roosevelt again until he apologized.

In the matter of the rate bill he said that Roosevelt surrendered, walked down and gave up. He paid an eloquent tribute to Senator Bailey's defense of the constitutionality of the limited court review. MR. DAVID S. L.

C. Woman's New Profession, Writing Speeches For Men. Asheville Citizen. Here is a new profession for women. The field is bound to be limited, however, as it is quite essential that one must possess brains in order to succeed in the new business.

At a recent dinner a young woman distinguished herself by a clever afterdiuner speech, winning the applause and admiration of every on-, and of one gentleman in particular, by her wit and brilliant epigrams. Later in the evening this gentleman sought the hostess and, expressing his profound admiration for the ability of the fair speaker, he confessed that he bad always bad a great desire to shine as an after-dinner speak er himself, bnt that he lacked the power to express his thoughts. The hostess assured him that nothing was easier than to gratify his ambition, that all he had to do was to state his case to the young lady who had spoken at dinner. She told him that speech-writing was the yonng woman's business and that she derived a most comfortable income from supplying. not only after-dinner talks, bnt lectures on all subjects and political speeches as well.

The demand for her wares, she explained, was so great she could scarcely supply it, The ambitions young man promptly presented himself be fore the young lady, and for a neat little sum she furnished him with so many clever and eloquent outbursts that he soon gained a reputation as an after-dinner orator and raconteur. The exceptionally low rates offered by the Southern Railway have brought thousands of visitors to Asheville, and all records are broken. Now there are 7,000 people in the; a Manufactured by Glascock II GREAT last Wednesday" evening, near iforranton. of Parris Burton, aoiet. inoffensive farmer, who lived about four miles above here on the Cherryville road, by his brother.

Josh Burton. The details of the tragedy could not be learned nntil this morning when a nephew of the dead man was in town and gave the fol lowine account: About ten days ago Parris and Josh Burton brothers, started on a trip into the mountains above Morganton to look at some land which Par ris was negotiating On the way back home they fe.l in with a man by the name of ureen and woman walking. Ureen told them he wanted work and Parris employed him to help gather the croo. Josh hired the woman to cook for him. After they had traveled together for some dis tance, Josh, who was sitting in the rear of the wagou with the woman, became boisterous and Parris asked him to behave him self while in his wagon and on the oublic road.

Nothing more was said, but a tew minutes later oreen ana Parris Burton saw Josh put a shell into his gun, but thought nothing of that ubtil he fired, knocking Parris out on the doub- e-trees. The horses took fright and ran several 100 yards when Greeu stopped them. He found the entire load had entered Parris Burton's hip and ranged down the thigh. Josh Burton and the woman took to the woods, but were caught later and are now in Morganton jail. Green brought Parris on to his home, arriving there Friday mornine.

The wounded man died that evening. An old grudge of eight or ten vears' standing is supposed to be the cause of the tragedy About ten years ago Josh Burton was convicted of betraying a daughter of Parris and served a term in the peniten tiary for it. He has an unsavory reputation. The dead man leaves a wife and seven or eight children. He was between 50 and 60 years of age.

IMP OF INDIGESTION. How to Get The Better of This Cause of Misery. A scientific writer upon stom acb troubles says: "If you have ever suffered from indigestion, and who has notr your imag ination has probably pictured ferocious little imp dancing in the pit of your stomach, causing that organ to neglect all of its duties, with a result that is not only painful but fills you with misery from day to day." This writer certainly had suffered with indigestion, for there is no more disagreeable, nerve-racking and sick-all-over disease than in digestion. A great many people who have been treated for years for dis eases of the heart, liver or kid neys, when they used Miona stomach tablets found that not only did Miona cure the stomach dis order, but it made them well all over and the other troubles were also cured. If you suffer with nervousness.

sleeplessness, indigestion, sick or nervous headache, pains in the back or sides, pet a 50c box of Mi-o-na from J. II. Kennedy Co. and take one of the little tablets before each meal. It will do you a world of good and you will soon be well and free from indigestion, and its symptoms.

J. K. Kennedy A Co. have so much faith in this medicine that they give an absolute guarantee with every box. Ask them to show yon this guarantee.
