Judge Frank Osborne, of <lb/>
Charlotte has the race for <lb/>
the making the <lb/>
Democratic candidate who <lb/>
desires to succeed Senator <lb/>
and it is hinted that there are <lb/>
still others to the race. <lb/>
Indifferent Citizen. <lb/>
One of the great dangers of our <lb/>
government, especially our <lb/>
government, is the <lb/>
of a very large proportion of <lb/>
the people. <lb/>
Among those whom we are ac <lb/>
to regard as the best class <lb/>
of citizens there is a great and <lb/>
growing of duty to take an <lb/>
active part in politics. In fact we <lb/>
hear men of intelligence and <lb/>
property boast that they <lb/>
little and care less about public <lb/>
questions. These men would b <lb/>
if you should tell them <lb/>
that they are not good citizens, <lb/>
and are responsible, <lb/>
through their sins of omission, for <lb/>
the ills abuses of which they <lb/>
arc often the first to complain, but <lb/>
you would lie telling the truth. <lb/>
No man is a good citizen who has <lb/>
capacity to help cause of <lb/>
good government, and fails to do <lb/>
so. He is a stockholder neg- <lb/>
bis duty to himself and to <lb/>
Journal. <lb/>
newspaper whose <lb/>

attention to building town <lb/>

employed. People go where there <lb/>
is business. and labor go <lb/>
where there is an enterprising <lb/>
community. No power on earth is <lb/>
so strong to build up a town <lb/>
well a paper veil patronized, <lb/>
and power should be <lb/>
ed. The man who overlooks his <lb/>
town paper injures himself by in- <lb/>

Tom Shot in Hickory. <lb/>
Hickory, of the <lb/>
greatest tragedies has ever <lb/>
taken place inside if the corpora- <lb/>
was that occurring last <lb/>
in the eastern portion of tho town <lb/>
when Tom Yount, a well connected <lb/>
young married man, mis shot from <lb/>
ambush. The ball, from a <lb/>
pistol, entered through the <lb/>
upper lip, knock three <lb/>
teeth, clipping the tongue and <lb/>
lodging in the right lower jaw. <lb/>
Dr. II. who was at <lb/>
called to dress the wounds of <lb/>
the victim, said, after a careful <lb/>
examination, if it had been for <lb/>
the teeth breaking the force of the <lb/>
ball causing the same to range <lb/>
downward, the shot would have <lb/>
been fatal. <lb/>
There is much exciting comment <lb/>
over the affair and there Is a great <lb/>
deal of evidence as <lb/>
to the guilty parties, but so far <lb/>
there has not been any arrest, <lb/>
although one night policeman was <lb/>
on the scene at the lime of the <lb/>
shooting, thereafter locating some <lb/>
of the parties biding, one of <lb/>
whom was clothed in a Woman's <lb/>
garb. Leading up to tragedy <lb/>

Tuesday Senator Lodge made a <lb/>
long speech defending the action <lb/>

of continuing the <lb/>

heard of a single who bought <lb/>
these trucks that does not speak in <lb/>
praise of them. We found many <lb/>
who wanted to use <lb/>
but could because they had <lb/>
not their rows properly. <lb/>
We advised the farmers last season <lb/>
to the us tobacco <lb/>
trucks and prepare their rows so <lb/>
they could use them they be- <lb/>
to house their tobacco. Many <lb/>
of them took our advice were <lb/>
glad of it. Others did and <lb/>
them regretted the fact. <lb/>
We had customer who said he <lb/>
had rather chop eighth row <lb/>
of tobacco down throw it away <lb/>
to house his tobacco without <lb/>
the trucks. We still advise every <lb/>
tobacco grower to prepare bis laud <lb/>

is, they will never have cause to <lb/>
