C., as gecond class matter. DUNN, Harnett County, N. C. DUNN, N. C., July 0, 1902. Congress adjourned July 4th. The appropriations for this Congress amount to over eight hundred million dollars. 1 his session has been one of great interest in several directions. The Philippine bill occupied the minds of the public several weeks. The Cuban measures were watched attentively. Ihe fight of Senators Tillman and McLauriu, of South Carolina, and Senators Baily of Texas and Beveridge, oi' Indiana, all point to the fact that the Southern Senators are in the majority in one way and that in showing their temper. The Isthmian Canal problem, which the Southern people have been greatly interested in for a long time has passed both houses. This canal when com pleted will give us better oppor tunity to reach the oriental trade with our Southern prod ucts and manufactured goods. We will then be nearly six thousand miles nearer Hong Kong aud Calcutta than now. The Nicaraguan Canal will be more to us than the Suex Canal is to the people along the shores of the Mediterranean. Since Congress adjourned the President has issued three im portant orders in reference to the Phillipines. He declared the restoration of peace in the archipelago, proclaimed it un der civil government, and ex tended amnesty to the Filippi nos who have been in insurrec tion. Whether these things will be promotive of peace remains to be seen. We have heard before of peace in the Phillipines, to hear next of a body of American soldiers being ambushed and massacreed by natives. We have likewise heard the cry of "peace, peace," when there was no peace. We have lost 10,000 soldiers and $f)0,000,000 in this war. Over 200,000 Fil lipinos have been slain and a great many in the most brutal manner. More lives have been lost than in the wars of the Inv olution of 1812, the Mexican, Civil war and the Spanish war combined. Thank God, its all over. ■ The Judicial Convention for the Sixth Judicial District was held at Smithfield on July 3. Hon. W. R. Allen, of Wayne County, was nominated for Judge by acclamation and amidst raptuous enthusiasm. No district in the State has put in the field a better man than the Sixth. He is easily one of the strongest lawyers in the State. He is honest, manly aud firm in his convictions A man of strong integrity and simple manners. He has serv ed a short unexpired term on the bench and was renominated but defeated by the fusionists in 1894. Since that time he has represented Wayne county in the Legislatures of 1899 and 1901. In the general Assem bly—although not as old as some members—he was re garded as one of tlie safest of Legislators. Judge Allen has always been a Democrat, true and loyal to the party and its principles. When we go on the hustings this fall we can point with pride to the fitness of this pure man to hold the scales of Justice. Hon. Armistead Jones, of Wake county, was also nomi nated for Solicitor by .acclama tion. He is as well qualified to look after the interest of the State as any lawyer in the dis trict. A man with strong character, lofty ideals, and no ble purposes. The innocent will have nothing to fear and the guilty nothing to hope when they are in the Temple of Justice in this district. Mr. Jones was appointed to fill the last two years of the unexpired term of lion. E. 11. Pou, who resigned after being elected to Congress. He has pleased the whole district and is already held in high esteem by all. He will be elected and for the next 4 years the State's side of the dockets of the district will be conducted vigorously but liu- UUtuly. We clip the following short paragraph from the Common wealth, of which Mr. E. E. Milliard is editor. He is one oi Harnett's sons and is making a success in the field of journ alism. It reads: "When the editor of this pa per was a school boy in Lilling ton, Harnett county, it was a treat and a pleasure to listen to the learned conversation of Mr, 11. C. Belden, "Bob lhdden," as they famarily call him. He' was a fine Greek scholar and his learning was the admiration of the school boys, ile is still a shining example of the power and usefulness of an educated man, as the following from the News tfe Observer indicates : "We have the oldest tax lister in North Carolina in the person of Mr. K. C. Belden, of Johnsonville township" said Mr. Neill A, Smith, of Harnett. "He was educated at Harvard and is one of the most compe tent tax listers in the State. He is a man of fine sense, well posted, and old as he is his memory is clear and he is one of the* most interprising men I have ever known." Subscribe for TIIEBANNKU. WOMEN AND JTCUVELS. Jewels, candy, flowers, man that is the order of a woman's preferences. Jewels form a magnet of mighty povjer to the average woman. Even that greatest of all jewels, health, is often ruined in the strenuous efl'ort to make or save the mon ey to purchase them. If a wom an will risk her health t«o get a coveted gem, then let her forti fy herself against the insiduous consequences of coughs, colds and bronchial affections by the regular use of Dr. Boschee's German Syrup. It will prompt ly arrest consumption in its early stages and heal the affec ted lungs and bronchial tubes and drive the dreaded disease from the system. It is not a cure-all, but it is a certain cure for coughs, colds and all bron chial troubles. You can get this reliable remedy at Hood & Grantham's. Get Green's Special Almanac. Endorsement. Buies Creek, N. 0,, June, 30th, 11)02. To THE BANNKK : Much has been said about county politics and candidates for county offices. There seems to be many candidates for the Clerks place any of whom I have heard mentioned would no doubt fill the office with hon or and credit but as only one i can have the place, I a>k the! Democrats of the county to! nominate Mr. C. 11. Biggs, of j Neil's Creek township for this i office. Mr. Biggs is and has always been a Democrat, staunch and true and lias done much in tiiis part of the county for the cause democracy. He is a young man of high character, strong intellect and always so ber and temperate in all things, in fact he is well qualified to iiil that or any other office in the county. Those who kuow him will agree with me that lie has as sound judgment and as honest convictions as any man in the county. On these merits I ask for his nomination. Yours very truly, F. H. Taylor.

A correct diet will not only noui'- ish a particular part of the body but it will sustain every other part.

The tocsin has been sounded in North Carolina from moun tain to seashore that we must have better schools and longer terms. In meeting this great and growing demand of the State in driving ignorance from her borders and in placing the I public schools as the first a nil most popular institutions of learning, no one has so impor tant part as the teacher. The first question the teacher should ask himself. What is teaching? To csil your pupils in the school room and hear recita tions is not teaching. To teach is to deal with the mind—is to get it to do something which it would not have done apart from the teacher, in order fo get it to become something which it would not have be come apart from him. There is a theory among some "teach ers, which we will e;i!l the sap bucket £idea. The pupil wad dles up under a spouting teach er to be filled. The fact is that | the pupil remains what he was. j No energies have been awaken ed. He is the same dull care less pupil, and really has been robbed of his time, -and the school funds of so much money. But the teacher after he has lin-j ished his spouting process back in his chair, looking as wise as a (freecian Philosopher, but too iirnorant of the science! of his profession to know what a crime he has committed against the young life under his care. Then there i- the mechanical I I teacher who forms the concep tion that the pupil i-, as it were! a piece of wood to be worked j into shape following a pattern. This contrary ti> the law of Cod, ' and i-; the theory is dangerous in! the extreme, for instead of the proper development and growth j you see nothing left except the: marks of the tools of an'awk ward haggling teacher. The pupil is not a piece of wood, nor the school- room a work shop. The pupil is a plant and > develops and grows by the very naturewithin him. The teach er has to deal with life, and his business is to develop that life according to a method which was ordained before the founda tion of the world. Be it known fellow teachers unless you thoroughly prepare to teach that ere long some one else will take your place. There is another class of teachers whose knowledge of the subjects taught in our public schools is so limited that they have to re sort to every mechanical device and method to pull through and thus deceive the p.atrons and pupils We have heard and from very reliable sources that a teacher in one of our public schools last year, being unable to instruct his classes in arithmetic ordered a "Key" and copied the problems from* it on the board, being unable to explain any of the whys. If that school teacher were a loco motive engineer and did nor know any more about the iron horse than he seemed to know about arithmetic, I would cer tainly try to buy a ticket to the first station in Paradise before riding behind his engine from Dunn to Benson, he might for get or lose his key. Give your time and labor, teacher in working along the lines of your profession. The best work that the teacher does for his pupils, other tilings being equal, not he who im parts the most knowledge, but that which he does impart, does the most to wake up their minds and incite them to think for themselves. To ring a fire hell in the dormitory of the soul. You may be a High School or a College graduate, but one thing is sure, good common sense will never be su perseded by a diploma. Alma Mater is no match nor ever will be for Mother Wit. OASTORIA. Hears tho Kind You Havg felwavs Bough! I Republican Con spiracy Laid Bare. (Conclude 1 from tirst page.) amendment affected by this in firmity. The attack will be made upon the poll tax instead of the educational clause, to avoid going into court with a negro as complainant. By reason of the shortness of the time, it will be impossible to get the case heard on appeal before ihe election, and, as the judgement will be effective un til overruled on appeal, it is the expectation of the conspirators that the election will be held under the law as thus declared. If registrars refuse to recognize and act upon this decsion, mandamuses will be issued by the thousands, to be followed, if necessary to carry out the con spiracy, by Federal court bench warrants. The negro, who is always ready to obey the orders of his party leaders, is to be kept quiet, but secretly organized and kept in readiness to rush to the polls when the time is ripe and the way is clear. It is the calculation of the conspira tors that with one hundred and twenty thousand' negro votes added to the Republican and dissatisfied Democratic voters, they will bo able at least t> car ry enough counties to control tiie Legislature. The conspirators have ' thoroughly discussed in connec tion with this scheme the elec tion passed by the last Legisla ture and are greatly encouraged i and comforted in their enter prise by its fairness and the large representation it gives to the* opposition party. They expect, before their designs up on the amendment are discov ered, that the ' county boards, registrars, judges of electio'n, etc., will have been appointed and organized, and that they will have secured on these boards all the representation necessary to protect their voters and to carry out their conspir acy. | This is the Republican | scheme to capture the State, and it is the basis of all the predictions we have heard re cently of the re-election of the present Republican Senator. It is not a scheme merely in con templation. but one which has been discussed, matured and agreed upon. In asserting this. I'speak not from conjecture, but from positive and reliable informa tion. Of course the .success of this scheme required the utmost se crecv, anil for this reason but few have been taken into the inner circle. Tho lieutenant have been given to undestand that the party chiefs have a big card up their sleeves, which it is expected at the right time will be played and sweep the deck. But so far the scheme isj a secret to all except the big leaders. The success of this scheme requires also the prosti tution of the judiciary for pure ly partisan purposes, but Re publican oflicialdom in North Carolina is a close corporation, and this part of the program presents no practical difficul ties. I have felt it my duty to ex pose this conspiracy to take snap judgement against the white people of the State and bring them again under the yoke of negro domination. did the old maxim, "fore warned, forearmed," apply with greater force. In the name of the white people of North Carolina 1 tell those conspirators that never again, under any circumstances, will negro rule be permitted to exist irt North Carolina. White su premacy is notronly written in tho constitution, but it is writ ten in the hearts of the white people of the State. If the Re publican party hopes again to come into power in North Caro lina, it must look elsewhere than to the negro vote. All hopes of political success based upon that vote is doomed to disappointment. They must either accept the amendment in good faith or openly repudiate. They will not be permitted to invoke its beneficent and liber alizing provisions while secretly plotting its assassination. PoUoning ille Sj sieui. It is through the bowels that the body is cleansed of impur ities. Constipation keeps these poisons in the system, causing headache, dulness and melan cholia at first, then unsightly eruptions and finally serious illness unless a remedy is ap plied. DeWitt's Little Early Risers prevent this trouble by stimulating trie livar and pro mote easy, healthy action of the bowels. These little pills ilo not act violently but by strengthening the bowels enable them to perform their own work. Never gripe or distress. Hood & Grantham. Death of Mrs. Smith.
