A long, tall, gawkylooking descendant of Ham, from the rural districts of this county, marched into the office of Justice Humphrey in the court house in this city Thursday and asked that the Justice undo the marriage ceremony that had been performed only a few weeks pre vious. Mr. Humphrey explained to him that he could easily tie such knots, but had not the power to untie them, and sent him to Uol "Washington. In response to Question as to why he thus early wanted to separate from the; woman of his choice and why his affection for her had so soon ceased, the negro replied that "she was no 'count and triflin', and he couldn't git along with her without beatin' her and he thought it best to git uumar ried." The negro whose theft of a suit of clothes was mentioned in these column Wednsday and who was thought to have made good his escape, was captured near Wilson Thursday and brought to this city Friday where he stood tfiar "before ' J ustice H umphrey and was lodsred in jail to secure his appearance at the September term of-the Superior court.

The text of the Populist plat form is as follows: The People's Party, assembled in National Convention, reaffirms its allegiance to the principles declared by the founders of the republic, and also to. the, funda mental pi in nples "of just govern ment as enunciated in the plat form of the party in 1892. We recogniz? that through the connivance of the present and preceding administrations, the country has reached a crisis in its national life, as predicted in our declaration four years ago, and that prompt and patriotic action is the supreme duty of the hour. We realize that, "while we have political independence, our finan cial and industrial independence is yet to be attained by restoring to our country the constitutional control and exercise of the func tions necessary to the people's government, which functions have been basely surrendered by our public servants to corporate monoplies. The influence of European money-changers has been more potent in shaping leg islation than the voice of the American people. Executive power acd patronage have been used to corrupt our legislatures, and defeat the will of the people, and plutocracy has thereby been enthroned upon the ruins of Democracy. To restore the gov ercment intended by the fathers, and for the welfare and prosper ity of this and future genera tions, we demand the establish ment of an economic and finan cial system, which shall make us masters of our own affairs and independent of European con trol, by the adoption of the fol lowing declaration of princi ples: THE MONEY PLANK. 1. We demand a national money, safe and sound, issued by the General Government only, without the intervention of bauks of issue, to be a full legal tender for all debts public and private; a "just, equitable, and efficient means of distribution, direct to the people, and through the law ful disbursements of the govern ment. 2. We demand the free and unrestricted coinage of silver and gold, at the present legal ratio of 16 to 1, without waiting for the consent of foreign na tions. 3. We demand that the vol ume of circulating medium be speedily increased to an amount sufficient to meet the demands of the business and population, and to restore the just level of prices of labor and production. 4. We denounce the sale of bonds, and the increase of the public interest bearing debt made by the present administra tion as unnecessary and without authority of law, and demand that no more bonds be issued, except by specific act of Con gress. 5. We demand that the gov ernment, in payment of its obli gations, shall use its option as to the kiud of lawful money in which they are to be paid, and we denounce the present and preceeding administrations for surrendering this option to the holders of government obliga tions. 7. We demand a graduated income tax, to the end that ag gregated wealth shall bear its just proportion of taxation, and we regard the recent decision of the Supreme Court relative to the income tax law as a miainter pretation of the Constitution and an invasion of the rightful pow ers of Congress over the subject of taxation. We demand that the postal saving banks be established by the government for the safe de posit of the savings of the peo ple and to facilitate exchange. RAILROADS AND TELEGRAPHS. 1.

U CIS Erkw Merit in medicine means the power to care. Hood's Sarsa par ilia possesses actual and unequalled curative power and there fore it has true merit. When you buy Hood's Sarsaparilla, and take it according to directions, to purify your blood, or cure any of the many blood diseases, you are morally certain to receive benefit. The power to cure is there. You are no trying an experiment. It will make your blood pure, rich and nourishing, and thus drive oat the germs of disease, strengthen the nerves and build up the whole system. Sarsaparilla Is the best, in fact the One True Blood Purifier. Prepared only by C. I. Hood & Co., Lowell, Mass. Hood's Pills gripe. Alfdruggusts. 25c DISEASES OF THE SKIN. The intense itching and smarting inci dent to eczema, tetter,, salt-rheum, and other diseases of the skin is instantly allayed by applying Chamberlain's Eye and Skin Ointment.

Such ownership is to be accomplished gradually, in a manner consis tent with sound public policy. 2. The interest of the United States in the public highways built, with public moneys.and the proceeds of grants of land to the Pacific railroads, should uever be alienated, mortgaged, or sold, hut guarded and protected for the general welfare, as provided by the laws organizing such rail roads. The foreclosure of exist ing liens of the United States on these loads should at once follow default in the payment thereof by the debtor companies; and at the foreclosure sales of said roads the government should purchase the SBtne, if it becomes necessary to protect its interests therein, or if they can be pur chased at a reasonable price; and the government should operate said railroads as public highways for the beuefit of the whole peo ple, and not in the interest of the few, under suitable provisions for protection of life and pro perty, giving to all transporta tion interests t-qual privileges and equal rates for fares and freights. 3. We denounce the present infamous schemes for refunding these deMs, and demand that tne laws now applicable thereto be executed arid administered ac cording to their intent and spirit. 5- The telegraph, like the post office system, being a necessity, for the transmission of news, should be owned and operated by the government in the interest of the people. THE PUBLIC LANDS. 1. True policy demands that the national and State legislation shall be such as will ultimately enable every prudent and indus trious citizen to secure a home; and, therefore, the land should not be monopolized for specula tive purposes. All lands now held by railroads and other cor porations in excess of their actual needs should, by lawful mean?, be reclaimed by the gov ernment and held for actual set tlers only, and private land mo nopoly, as well as alien owner ship, should be prohibited. 2. We condemn the frauds by which Ihe land-grant Pacific railroad companies hw, through the connivance of the Interior Department, robbed multitudes of actual, bona-fide settlers of their homes, and miners of their claims, and we demand legisla tion by Congress which will ens force the exemption of mineral land from such grants after, as well as before, the patent.' 3. . We demand that bona-fide settlers on all public lands be granted free homes, as provided in the national homestead law, Mrs. Rhodie Nash, of this place, was taken in the night with cramping pains and the next day diarrhoea set in. She took half a bottle of blackberry cordial but got no relief, She then sent to me to see if I bad anything that would help her. I sent her a bottle of Chamber lain's Colic, Cholera and Diar rhoea Remedy and the first dose relieved her. Another of our neighbors had been sick for abou, a week and had tried dif ferent remedies for diarrhoea but kept getting worse. I sent him this same remedy. Only four doses of it we're required to cure him. He says he owes his re covery to this wonderful remedy. Mrs.-. Mary Sibley, Sidney. Mich. For sale by M. E, Robin son & Bro. and that no exception ba made in he case of Indian reservations when opened for settlement, and that all lauds not now patented come UL,dcr this demand. DIRECT LEGISLATION. We favor a system of direct legislation through the initiative referendum, under proper con stitutional safeguards. ELECTIONS BY THE PEOPLE. We demand the election of President, nce-Presidnt, and D dttecl States Senators by a di rect vote of the people. SYMIIATHY FOR CUBA; We tender to the patriotic peo ple of tho country our deepest sympathy in their heroic strug gle for Doiilical freedom and in dependence, diid we believe the time has come when the United Slates, the great republic of the world, should recognize that Cuba Is, and of right ought to be. a free and independent State. MISCELLANEOUS DECLARATIONS. 1. We favor home rule in the Territories and the District of Columbia,' and the early admis sion of the Territories as States. 2. All public salaries should be made to correspond to the price of labor and its products. 3. In times of great industrial depression idle labor should be employed on public works as far as practicable. 4. The arbitrary course of the counts in assuming to impris on citizens for indirect contempt and ruling them by injunction should be prevented by' proper legislation. 5 W e favor just pensions far our disabled Union soldiers. 6. Believing that the elec tive franchise aad an untram meled ballot are essential to gov ernment of. for, and by the peo ple, the People s Party condemns the wLolesale svstem of disfran chisement adopted in some of .the States as unrepublican and un democratic, and we declare it to be the duty of the several State Legislatures to take such aqtion as will secure a full, free, land fair ballot and an honest count. 7. While the foregoing pro positions constitute the platform upon which our party stands, and for the vindication of which its organization will be maintained, we recognize that the great and pressing issue of the pending campaign, upon which the pres ent ejection will turn, is the fi nancial question, and upon thi& great and specific issue between the parties we cordially iuvite the aid and co operation of all organizations and citizens agree ing with us upon this vi'.al question. CONDENSED NEWS Happenings of Interest All Over the Continent. A strike involving not less than two thousand employes of the Consolidated Traction Company of Pittsburg, Pa., is not improbable.

Philadelphia, Pa., July 25 The steamer .tsernauua, which some months ago took an expedi tion to Cuba, has been sold, Jno. D. Hart says, to Captain Chas. H. Brown, of London, for $45, 000, $10,000 having been paid down. Chester, July 26. Richard Vincent, of Wilmington, attempt ed to board a freight train at Moore's Station last night, when he fell under the wheels and had his left leg badly mutilated. He was taken to the University Hos pital and it is feared he may not recover. Bridgetown, July 25. George Bates' bottling establishment was burned down early this morning. Loss, $ 1,000; insurance $500. The tire was evidently of incendiary origin. Bates runs a beer bottling place and had many enemies in the locality where it was located. In the vicinity of Boquet, Westmoreland Co., Pa., almost any one can tell you hw to cure a lame back or stiff neck. They dampen a piece of flannel with Chamberlain's Pain Balm and bind it on the affected parts and in one or two days the trouble has disappeared. This same treatment will promptly cure a pain the side or chest. Mr. E. M. Prye, a prominent merchant of Boquet, speaks very highly of Pain Balm, and his recommen dations have had mu'.'htodowith making it popular there. For sale by M. E. Robinson & Bro, Disease is Ute railroad train. It has a regular way of comine and coin and keeps on stead ily along: a certain track. You can al most always tell how a disease starts, and where it will prob ably end. It won't go out of its way to oblige you any more than a locomo tive will. Disease usually begins when the appetite gives out that's the first warning whistle Then the stomach and nutritive organs fail to supply Rooa blood. The circula tion erows uoor. thin and tainted. Instead of carrying nourishment to the different parts of the body it carrier poison, which settles at some point and eats away the tissues. According to where it set tles it is called liver or kidney or skin dis ease scrotuia, erysipelas, eczema, or con sumption if it settles on the lungs. It is all one trouble : tainted blood ; clear out this taint and build up the tissues with rich blood and the disease is stopped ; side tracked ; it can't go any further. No matter what the name of a disease is if it's a blood disease. Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Dis covery will cure it by driving the poison out of the circulation and creating a new sup ply of healthy, red, life -giving blood to re vive and nourish the wasted tissues. It Cuts the digestion in order, invigorates the lood - making organs and builds firm healthy flesh. Consumption is a blood disease. Don't believe it can't be cured ! It is cured every day by Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery. Dear Sir; I cannot say enough for your " Gol den Medical Discovery." For two years my little buy suffered with lung trouble first taking la $nppe; second intermittent fever: third, lung trouble. For two years he coughed. The phy sician could do no good and I thought he must die. I was told to try Dr. Pierce's Golden Med ical Discovery. I did, and before he had taken one bottle he began to mend and could eat a little. When he had takeji four bottles he was well and now is as stout as before. Respectfully yours. Proctor, Morgan Co., Mo. THKRATK WAE, The freight rate war which ha3 grown out of the fight be tween the Southern and the Sea board Air Line railroads will surely have a demoralizing effect upon business in a very large territory, and cannot prove otherwise than injurious to the roads themselves, It is such wholesale slashing of rates as this that precipitates receiver ships and causes reduction of wages. Innocent poople are made to suffer and commercial inter, psts are disorgau'z3d,;all because there is no way by which to set tle satisfactorily disputes be tween managers growing out of competition for business. Much feeling, it appears, is being raan fested in the present fight. Vice-President St. John, of the Seaboard, charges that bis road has been.put upon the defensive; that the Southern has been try ing to crush it,andthat it doesn't propose to be crushed. We do not know whether Mr. St. John's statement is true or not. No the Southern managers hold the same views towards Mr. St John Meanwhile let the war proceed The merchans will have a picnic an cheap freight weigts and the tourists will travel for almost a song, while the stockholder will pay for the fun. THE SOUTH'S OPFOTUNITY. The most important question before the South to-day is, how to secure immigration. A large movement of population from the North and West and of the better classes of German, Scan dinavian and British farmers to the South would be of incalcul able value to this section. It would stimulate the whole South, wonderfully augment the growth of manufactures, enhance the value of all agricultural land and of all city property, increase the money-making opportunities of every man, woman and child in the South, bring about better educational facilities, secure the construction of better roads, for ever settle all possible race ques tions, and give to this section a prosperity as much greater than that of the North and "West as the natural advantages of the former exceed those of the latter. It is the duty of every man and woman interested in the South to bend their best energies to this great question. It demands the untiring work, the most lib eral financial aid and the daily thought of everyone who desires to see the South enjoy the bless ings that would come from an ever increasing Southward move ment of population. - Farm for Sale: Situated in Wayne county, N.
