While this is a reasonable conclusion, yet we don’t- believe it will materially effect the farmers as a whole in their determi nation to reduce this co-called over production.

It is claimed that he received injuries from which he died 7 in November last.

If the moon had “fulled” five min utes later last night next Friday would have been “Good Friday.” It will be several years before “Good Friday” comes as late again. We are fully in accord with the sen- last year and the result will he very disheartening to the farmers—not the large yield, but the low price that will accrue from the over-supply will cause the trouble. The farmers' just won’t unite as they ought, to. One is afraid to reduce his acreage because the price might be good and his next door neighbor would obtain a fortune from his large crop. If the farmers won’t unite and then sure enough stick together the next best thing is for each individual farmer to plan wisely for his own good, and whatever that plan is it certainly won’t he an increase of cotton acreage. Each far mer should pay a great amount of time and attention to truck farming. He should raise as nearly as possible everything be can use in the way of produce and if in the fall of the year jiis corn crib, grannery, smokehouse, cellar, etc., are full of overflowing, then he can sit back in his easy chair and not worry in the least if cotton is four and one-half cents a pound. And another thing is that the farm ing class of people to a very great ex tent live beyond their means. They seem to forget that agriculture Is the greatest occupation in the world, that the world could not stand without the aid of the farmers. In the words of the song. “The farmer is the one who feeds them all.” It Is to be admitted that a man of wealth is very much respected and honored in a social way if ho at all passes for decency, and very often when he is not decent. While If a poor man falls to be decent he is not respected at all. Yet, the world is becoming more and more to measure a man not by what he possesses in this world’s goods but by his own real worth. And the thing for the farmers who have been the victims of misfortune and who are not In good financial standing to do is to realize this fact and let their future actions bo governed accordingly. It seems that common sense would teach a man that it is better to live “in a strain” a year or two than to lie a year behind in'all his life as the re sult of living beyond his means.

In a fit of pique or despondency Monday evening, Mrs. C. S. Lowrance who resides at No. 802 West Fourth street in Charlotte, attempted to end her life by swallowing an ounce of laudanum. Perhaps it is owing to the fact'that she took such a heavy dose of the drug that the woman is alive today. She was discovered by her husband lying on the floor almost unconscious. A physician was hastily summoned and several neighbors went in to render any assistance in their power. Before the arrival of the physician the heavy dose of lauda num had acted as its own antidote and Mrs. Lowvance was out of danger. It is said that domestic trouble caused her to commit the rash act. t.iment expressed in the editorial can use. columns of this paper last week 1 Robert Gibson, who has been very about publishing reports of any kind | i 0 w with pneumonia, we are glad to calculated to horrify the sensibilities state is convalescent, of modest, good people.

Kale, superintendent of the Nims Manufacturing company, about twen ty miles from Charlotte. Kale went to the house of one of the operatives it is said, for the purpose of induc ing him and his family to move to his mill. _ Carpenter heard of the ob ject of Kales visit and confronted him with the charge. A fight ensued, in which both drew pistols. Kale shot Carpenter in the breast, inflicting a dangerous, if not fatal wound, and Carpenter in turn fired at Kale, the ball striking him squarely in the fore head, passing directly through the brain, causing instant death. Carpen ter is in a very precarious condition. He is a son of Mr. O. D. Carpenter one of the best known mill owners in the South. Gov. Glenn pardons Rubie Warren, a young white man who is serving a five-year sentence for killing his father in Watauga county. The par don is at the request of the judge and solicitor, it having developed that the killing was when the father was mak ing a drunken and brutal assault on the boy’s mother and a son. The governor declines application for par dons to Albert Pritchard, serving ten years for burglary in Mitchell county and W. B. Patterson, serving two years for seduction in Haywood conn ty. The governor says he received notice Monday that application wil be made at once for the pardon of Ed Utley, now serving a long term for the killing of the Lafayette hotel clerk, at Fayetteville. He does not know yet on what grounds the pardon will he asked. A petition was sent Governor Aycock in Utley’s behalf at the close of his administration, but no action was taken. The city of Durham was all excite ment, Monday. There was another railroad war on that threatened to eclipse all fights between the town and the Southern Railway Company of the past. When the citizens awoke that morning it was to find that dur ing the night thfc Southern road, with a force of some 200 hands, had taken possession of all of Pettigrew and Peabody streets in that city, having laid a part of two tracks in Pettigrew street and one track in Peabody. Throughout the day it was the talk and the tensloi of public opinion was strained and the friction noticeably great. Judge Peebles reached Dur ham on the morning train, and a few minutes later a restraining order was served on the Southern to quit all work on the Pettigrew street side. In the meantime there was a hurried call for a meeting of the hoard of aide men, and a resolution was passed that will carry the Peabody street side in to the courts again. News w’as received in Asheville Monday of the tragic death of H. L. Hlce Saturday night, near Bethel church, in the Hominy section of Bun combe county. Mr. Hlce, in compaj v with his son, had been to Asheville, driving a team of mules. Returning in the afternoon the father and son stopped at a store in West Asheville, where several purchases were made and near dark the start for their home on Pole creek was made. Reaching a point on the road near Bethel chruch, the mules became frightened and started to run. The elder Hlce, who held the reins, was unable to check the animals and at a turn in the road he was thrown from the wag on his head. The fall was of sufficient force to break his neck, and Mr. Hicr was killed instantly. Mr. Hlce wp i a prosperous farmer on Pole creek, In Buncombe county, and had many friends who will be shocked to loam of his untimely and tragic death. He was about 54 years of age and a na tive of that section. a Gaffney Man at Springs, Ark. Hot Springs, Ark., March 20, 1905. To my Ledger friends:—It was on the 13th inst. we boarded the train at Gaffney for Hot Springs. We reached this place on the 14th at 11 o’clock in the night. Our trip was much en joyed by all, especially from Memphis to Little Rock. We traveled about 200 miles through that Arkansas bot tom land, and it was quite a novel sight to us. There were thousands of acres that were just as level as a floor, and the cotton looked as if it would make two to three bales to che acre—and there is a lot of it in the fields yet. Well, we all got here tired a i went to our stay place, aad on the morning of the 15th got up in Hot Springs and made our way to the bath houses. Now, you people who have been he know something about this place; bu I was completely carried away with the rush of people, all making for the bath houses. There are thous ands of people here from all over the world, and they are of all sorts and shapes. They have a nice city of about twelve thousand inhabitants. They tell me here that the floating in habitants are about twelve thousand on an average: and they could safely say that it costs every person who comes here one dollar every day that he stays, so you can see what amount of money is pent here every day. I have been taking in the town and uiburbs when I felt well enough to go. We took in the part of the town that, got burned out some months ago, and it is an awful sight to see. There was about one mile square of the town that not a thing was left on but, dead trees and rubbish of brick and debris. I have not seen, since I have been here, a single garden that is being cultivated. Everybody seems to look to the water of the place for a liv ing: and the water is a great curiosi- ry. to see it gushing out boiling hot. Then you will find it in all sorts of minerals that nature has in her store. Mr. Ledger, this leaves us all im proving, and if this writing escapes the waste basket, probably you will bear from us again. T. G, : 1 Death of Mrs. Padgett.

WHAT IS CATARRH? —Rubber* for everybody at olo*e price*, at J. I. Sarratt’a. Hyomei Cures this Common and Dis agreeable Disease. Hyomei cures catarrh by the simple method of breathing It into the air passages and lungs. It kills the germs of the catarrhal poison, heals and soothes the irritated mucous mem brane, enters the blood with the oxy gen and kills the germs present there, effectually driving this disease from the system. If you have any of the following symptoms, catarrhal germs are at work somewhere in the mucous mem brane of the nose, throat, bronchial tubes or tissues of the lungs: offensive breath huskines.sof volee dryness of 1 he nose dlseheru'e from the nose pain across the eyes stoppage of tho nose at pain in back of the night head aching of the hodv tendency to take droppings in the throat cold mouth open while sleep- burning pain In the ing throat tickling l ack of the pal- hawking to clear the ate throat formation of crusts in pain In the chest the nose a cough dryness of the throat in stitch in the side tie 1 morning losing of llesh loss of strength variable appetite spasms of'Coughing low spirited at times cough short and hack raising of frothy Ing mucous cough worse nights ind expectorating yel- mornings low matter loss in vital force difficulty in breath a fooling of tightness ing across the upper part freequent sneezing of the chest Hyomei wdll cure tho disease, des troy activity of all germ life in tho respiratory organs, enrich and purify the blood w’ith additional ozone, and after a few days use of this treat ment the majority of these symp toms will have disappeared. In a few weeks the cure will be compile. Catarrh or catarrhal colds cannot exist when Hyomei Is used. This is a strong statement, but The Gaffney Drug Company emphasize it by agree ing to refund your money If Hyomei does not cure. —New Automobile cloth at Carroll & Byers’ is one of the latest things for second mourning dresses.
