MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 1, 1902. THE SPIRIT OF THE TRUSTS. The spirit that has created, and the methods that are employed to keep the Trusts in control of the machinery of the Republican party are as soulless and unscrupulous as ever animated the most despotic form of government the world has known. It is the same thing manifesting in a more civilized age and on a" different plane; but, still the same spirit that has in all govern ments resulted in the overthrow of all nations and civilizations. The pursue their object of greed and averice under various disguises with infinite art and endless activity. They have clamored for so-called social order, and leagued many of the quiet and peaceful under their banner. They have strenuously defended whatever existed, in the form of special privileges, and arrogated to themselves the epithet of conservative; while aristocratic traitor and mush room rich civilians have sheltered themselves beneath t'eir aegis. They have called self-defense an assault and punished it by the confiscation of many people's freedom. Has any kingly crest or coat-of-arms sullied its profes sions with deeds more terrible than these of the Trusts? trusts. But they are in about as delicate a position as the boy in the apple or chard, when the teeth of the bull dbg therein has a good firm hold on his trousers. ANOTHER LIE NAILED. The cheek of the average Republican officeholder, says the Greensboro Re cord, is both sublime and ridiculous. The Honorable Harry Skinner, in his speech before his convention last night said, in speaking of the work of the fusion legislature, "what benefit you get from your Normal College here in Greensboro is due to that body." The school was in operation before the fus ion crowd was e'ver thought of in North Carolina. But what difference does it make to a man like Skinner? Like a preacher he knew no one was going to reply to him. GRESHAM COMPLIMENTED. 8 BUILDERS If too hot or too cold take DR. KING'S BLOOD AND. LIVER PILLS.

PROPHESY AND HYPOCRISY. The Republican party has been com pelled, by irresitible pressure of pub lic opinion, to accept the trust issue, but every fair minded and unprejudiced man knows that this issue has been accepted by the party managers with a large mental reservation, merely as a measure of expediency. The masses every where demand its solution. The classes, of course, will defend their special privileges to the last ditch. But the problem must be solved. The ques tion then arises "Can the Republican party whose policies have created all of the legislation that has created all of the Trusts, and whose political or ganization is controlled and dominated by these tariff-fostered corporations, be entrusted with the solution of the problem?" The Apostle St. John must have had this situation in mind when he prophe sied that in the days to 'come commer cial conditions would arise, when: "No man might buy or sell have he that had the mark or the name of the Beast." It needs no prophetic vision to discover in the Trusts the symbolic "Beast" of the Apocalypse. The New York Press (Rep.) says that "we have to have a protective tariff to secure an American market for American products." In other words, if the American manufacturer did not have the protective tariff they could not charge the American con sumer 40 per cent more for their pro ducts than they charge the foreign consumer. What a Well Known Atlanta Journal Says of His Eating Houses. The Common Carrier, a magazine in the interest of railroads, published in Atlanta, has the following: The Missouri, Kansas and Texas, the "Katy" owns a farm in the Indian Ter ritory, where it raises vegetables, fruits and poultry, cattle, sheep and swine, for it's eating houses. The road does not have to buy eggs, meats or vegetables in the summer. The com pany feeds 720,000 people a year, and prefers eating houses to dining cars, because meals can be served at less cost in the former. In the effect, the dining cars is in dispensible to the millionaire, who a few years ago ate his dinner out of a bucket, but to the plain, hog and hom iny, bacon and greens, pot liquor and water, ground corn meal, dumpling travelling public of the rest of the country, twenty-minutes for dinner at Charlotte, Branch eville or some other eating house is preferable. Gresham serves canteloupes that would melt m your mouth and make the far famed and old worked Rockford seem like a squash, spring chicken, fat and tender, hot rolls,light as air, rich milk, coun try ham and red gravy, vegetables fresh from the garden and pie of every variety in season. Every minute or two a pretty girl comes along with : Fiease have another piece of chicken," or "please let me get you some more hot rolls." She pleads so earnestly that for fear of offending her or the head of the house you reluctantly consent. Even after you have paid your fifty cents for a dollars worth and on your way to the train some member of the establishment follows you with a tray and begs you to please have some more juicy peaches 'or grapes. What dining par service can compare with this? What is a Waldorf-Astoria, Sherry's, or Delmonico's to Gresham's eating houses at Charlotte or Branchville? They are simply not in the same class. If Gresham were to go to New York open up a house on fifth Avenue, cook in the same style as he does now, charge two dollars for half a spring chicken and other things in proportion, he would soon be .able to buy real estate in lower Broadway.

He has been on both sides of the question and it might be in prder to ask him whether he is going to stand by his newspaper interviews and letters of last year or those of the present campaign. DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED. by local applications, as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear. There is only one way to cure deaf ness, and that is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an inflamed condition of the mucous lin ing of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube gets inflamed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed deaf ness is the result, and unless the in flammation can be taken out and this tube restored to its normal condition, hearing will be destroyed forever; nine cases out of ten are caused by. catarrh, which is nothing but an in flamed condition of the mucous surfaces. We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case of Deafness (caused by catarrh) that can not be cured by Hall's Catarrh Cure. Send for circu lars, free. F. J. CHENEY & CO., Toledo, O.

You cannot by process of law pre vent anyone from drugging them skives to aeatn. we must meet the evil oy appeal to the intelligence.. One of the drugs that does the most narm to Americans, because of its wide spread use and its apparent in nocence, is Coffee. Ask any regular coffee drinker if he or she is perfect ly well. At least one-half are not. Only those with extra vigor can keep well against the daily attack of caf . feine (in the coffee). The heart and pulse gradually lose strength; dys pepsia, kidney troubles and nervous diseases of some sort set in and the clearly marked effects of coffee poi soning are shown. These are facts and worth anyone's thought. The reason able and sensible thing, is to leave it off and shift to Postum Food Cof fee. The poison that has been secretly killing is thus withdrawn and a power ful rebuilding agent put to work. The good effects will begin to show inside of 10 days. If health and comfort are Worth, anything to you, try it. LATTA PARK AUDITORIUM. Monday Nigki Under the auspices of Charlotte Cen tral Labor Union. THE BEST OF THEM ALL. Admission Free How about it?
