Then a sore or ulcer appears on some Eart of the body ; it may be small and armless looking at first, buf as the can cerous cells form and are deposited by the blood near the sore, it increases in size and severity, with sharp shooting pains. No matter how often the sore ia removed 'by the Mirgeons knife or flesh destroying plasters, another comes and is worse. """The real disease is in the blood, and the treatment must begin there. The blood must be invigorated and and when this is done cancerous cells can no longer form and the sore will heal naturally and permanently. Mrs. aran m. Keesling, 041 Windsor Are..

He dwelt at length upon the price of each agricultural product, every fowl that is sold f rnui the farm; sheep, hors es and cattle. The price from 1802 to 1896 was contrasted with that of 1S3S to 1900, and he tnly asked the vo:a f the people present upon the condition t?vat it 13 to their interest to support him. The" enthusiasm was unbounded among those present. I learned that there wers but three who were not out spoken .Blackburn mf.n. " - Mr. Bla.:kbuin's campaign is a con vincing one. The Impression upon the audience today, twio hundred or more stalwart mountaineers, who make their livings upon their little plantations, from farm products and live stock, is in marked contrast to the demagougic talk of the democratic orator. The lat ter finds no 'field here for his visionary prognostications, since the people have not forgotten what they received for every farm product, as well as for their live stock. So intensely interested are the people In the discussion of the issues, that lit tle attention is paid to the conditions of the weather when it is learnedthit Mr. Blackburn is to speak. " v. These are truly freemen. Stuffing ballot boxes, unregistered voters and intimidation are things entirely un known to them. Each man expresses his sentiment by depositing his ballot unmolested and having that ballot counted, and everyone is a sovereign in the fullest meaning of that word. "The softest zephyrs," Mr. Black burn said today, "whisper freedom to the child, rocked in its cradle, and the shrill winds of winter shriek freedom in stalwart manhood's ear. We're all one upon a common,level and no vile machine dares assail freedom's eternal habitation or liberty's permanent abid- ing place. No revolution dares stalk abroad, nor murder, nor circumspec tion. The rights of the citizen are in variable and to all the ballot is se cure. "He who dares preclude his country men from exercising the right of the franchise will be punished as is right. I am just in receipt of a letter from Greensboro, stating that six of those registrars who suppressed our vote in the August election have been indicted in the United States court at Greens boro. We only ask the registration of our lawful voters, and none but Law , ful voters, and this we must have and will have. The laws, of this country as well as our constitution insure to ev ery man who obeys the laws the right to cast one ballot and have that ballot counted as oast, and it is our duty aa citizens of a common country to main tain these laws and see that they are executed. "Give us our rights under the consti tution and all is well. Otherwise, law lessness and anarchy reigns supreme. I appeal to each and every citzen to aid in the vindication of our system of gov ernment. In this section we fear no intimidation, and when the will of the people la registered a majority will be counted in our favor." We passed' Ore Knob on our way from Transon to Jefferson. The Ore Knob Copper company operated these mines about twelve years, getting out some of the richest copper ore that the coun try haa ever produced. It had to be hauled fifty miles overland, and when copper got cheaper it proved too ex pensive and the mines were abandoned in 1892. About six hundred hands were employed and during several years as high as three thousand men were on the ray rolls. At one time seven big nail Regs of Mexican dollars were used to pay off tne men. A mountain of ore is still piled at the mouth of the tunnel and the smelter and furnaces are still there - General Manager Clayton of the old company now owns all of the stock, and with a railroad through this section work would be revived. .This project is practically certain of fulfill ment if Mr. McKinley is re-elected.
