I started to write my weekly letter last night, but I war not in a calm and serene frame of mind and concluded to put it off till morning. I bad read the morning paper that was unusually full of crimes and sin and misery and when the evening papers came there was another cwtalogue of calamities and I felt sad and depressed. When wilt these things stop? But J am no weeping prcphet nor does the public care to read the lamentations of Jere miah as amatter of choice. And so have waited until sleep and rest revived me and the bright, sun. of the morning dispelled the mists and the gloom. But how can an old man help com paring the present witn ine pasir Memory is his capital stock and his best recreation. If I was now in my teens I would be better reconciled to things as they are to modern map- ners and customs and to the sin and crime of this fast and reckless age. Our young people cannot realize that there ever was a better time and a better people. Therefore they .give the morality of the past no thought and the crime of the present no great concern. They look upon the fearful catalogue in the daily papers as our normal condition and many join in it to keep up with the procession, i Some apologists say that there is not much difference between now and then, but that it appears so because of the telegraph and the ten thous and newspapers that spreadrlhe news. The records of the courts tell the trujh and they prove according to the white population of our, state there are ten murders to where there was one fifty years ago. There are twen ty-five divorce cases to one and in our cities there are forty time as many burglaries, larcenies and shooting scrapes. The numer of suicides does not appear in the courts, but the in crease is not less than a' hundred to one. Jefferson said that the influence of great cities was pestilential to good morals. . Jusl think of it. In the little city of Atla'nta there were over 10 000 arrests during the past year. The nineteenth century leaves us this record as a legacy and our great concern, is wnat are we going to uo about it. Our lamentation is that the. people have gotten used to it and reconciled to its continuance. It is looked upon as the normal condition of public morals aid human affairs. Old men, old editors and old preach ers cry aloud and spare not. but the young generation do not seem to be greatly concerned. Young men, young women and even old women commit suicide somewhere every day and the editors tell us of it in the press dispatches and pass on without comment. What an awful condition of mental distress it must be that provokes the deliberate sacrifice of fine's own life. I fear we are getting hardened to the presence of crime hardened by daily contact with it; hardened like the rich of New York are to the misery and crime in her tenement houses and to the miserable beggars on her streets. They see them every day and pass them by without a sign, but they send large monies down here to educate a lot of lazy negroes they have never seen What a tool, what a fanatic, what a hypocrite is human nature. 'This reminds me to answer a letter of inquird from an old Democrat who lives in New Hampshire. He wishes to know who was responsible for the slave trade that peopled this country with negroes. Some of his neighbors insist that the South did, while the North protested against it and New England was especially hostile to it "How lone, oh, Cataline, will thou abuse our patience?" How long will the descendants of the Puritans cover up their own iniquity? My friend will find , in Appleton's American Cyclopedia, fourteenth volume, the best history ot slavery and the slave trade ever published. In that he will find that slave traders from Portugal brought the first cargo of twenty ne groes and landed them at Jamestown, in Virginia, in j 1620. Shortly after this most of the northern colonies en gaged in it, and Indians were enslaved as well as negroes. The son of King Philip was sold as a slave at Plymouth in the year 1696. The slave trade between the northern colonies and Africa was carried on with vigor un til 1776. In that year it was re solved by the continental congress that no more should be imported. In 1788 congress extended tha traffic to 1808, but the state of Georgia re fused to ratify the extension and in 1798 enacted the most prohibitory laws against it. The feeling against the traffic was stronger in the southern states than in the northern. Some of the north ern states continued to cairy it on long after it had been prohibited . And as late as 1841 Judze Storv. of Massachusetts. : charged the grand Sleeplessness, Melancholy, Fainting and j ury ol Boston that their people were Dizzy Spells when thousands have prov "steeped up to their eyebrows in the J ed that Electric Bitters will quickly cure infamous slave trade with Africa." But New England could not make the service of the slaves profitable and ; Cherley, of Peterson, la., "and a lame so sold them to Virginia and the Car- j bask pained me so I could not dress my olinas and to South America as late self, but Electric Bitters wholly cured as imv. vv nen ner snips could no longer dodge the pursuers from Eng- land and France arid traffic came to an end and then began; the howl "of the abolitionists against the south for keeping them in slaveiy the very negroes whose lances ors they sold to us. This is history and it is also his tory that after 1776 never did a slave land on a southern coast save once, and that was the case of the "Wan-, derer," who tried to land a cargo of 300 near Savannah and was seized and confiscated. This is enough of slavery and those responsible for it. The nineteenth century has left us some good, some signal blessings, and chief among thena is the . great . advance - in ; the social condition of woman and the general recognition of her equality with man in j most all civil rights. Unless she chains herself to a brute she is no longer a slave; but stands up side by side with her husband. Her. demands for herself and her children now find a respectful aud-! ience in courts and legislature (ex-! cept, perhaps, that last miserable abortion called the Georgia legisla-i ture). and no great, newspaper could pass without giving a good part of its ' columns for their pleasure and com-! fort. . Woman is fast coming to the! front as misstress of the situation. In ' every calling she has proven herself as intelligent and as progressive as man infinitely his superior in public morals and private virtue. When she does come fully to the front she will control legislation and the'n whiskey, the curse of the country, will be for ever banished. Whiskey is woman's greatest foe, the, cause of nearly all the tyranny, infidelity and crime that makes her existence miserable. She will not have to beg a legislature to protect the factory children, for then the children will have solder fathers to protect them.i A good mother writes me from Atlanta about the mutinyof the Tech, and says that the trouble 'with the boys of this day is the lack of discipline at home. They are not taught obedience in their early youth and they grow up without restraint and imangine they know a" much asparents or teachers. That is so, of course, and evry parents knowB it, and every parents knows it, and that accounts for ma"y ofthe crimes and misdeeds that bring trouble to parents. IoHtead of chiidien fearing their pareDts moet pireuts fear their children, and dread to have a rupture with them. , Bat they get piid for it sooner or later. Diogenes heard a boy swearing on the street and be hurried off with his cine and found the father and mauled bioi, If he was living here now be would be kept, busy mauling parents, and I reckon tne fitfberj of those Tech boys would catch a few strokes. If a teacher has not the hearty co-operation of the parent tha boy hid better be s?nt home. Bill Akp. iiOTtrnor A'ycock'a Inaufnra!. Baltimore Sun. The Inaugural address of Governor Aycock, of North Carolina, delivered a Rileigh yesterday, was eloquent, prac tical and conservative. . He draws s graphic picture of the deplorable con dition cf affairs which prevailed at the time the State was redeemed by the Democratic party in 1898. He explains and defends the educational clause in the new Constitution and shows that it is a fair measure, adopted in the inter est of a bettei aad purer State govern ment. He says the honor of the State is pledged to universal edacation and he urges the General Assembly to make provision for the education of the white people. "The safety of the State and the liberty of the citizen," says the Governor to the members of the Gen eral Assembly, "depends on your action on this question." The Governor also urges the adoption of an election law "which shall be so fair that no jast man can oppose it." The Governor pledges to the negroes that "their every right under the Constition shall be ab solutely preserved; they will fiad se curity in right conduct and certain punishment for failure to obey the law." Altogether Governor Aycock's address is an admirable one, and he may be depended upon to carry out his policy, for he is one of the firmest and brain est men in" the Old North. State. A Prominent Chicago Woman Speaks Prof. Roxa Tylgg", of Chicago, Vice President Illinois Woman's Alliance, in 6 peaking of Chamberlain's Cough Rem edy, says: "I suffered witn a severe cold this winter which threatened to run into pneumonia. I tried different rem edies but I seemed to grow worse and the medicine upset my stomach. A friend advised me to try Chamberlain's Cough Remedy and I found it was pleas ant to take and'it relived me at once. I am now entirely recovered, saved a doc tor's bill, time and suffering, and I will never he without this splendid medicine again." For 6ale by M. L. Marsh. Wcddlns Postponed to Save $2.

There i-oo more important subject among the twentieth century fd and facts than this character, the . twen tieth century voter. There it not ta official in power today in the United State who was not voted into office, or else placed in office by one who was voted into offige. All power of govern ment at last resides in the voter. ' Aa we come over into the twentieth century we matt see the fact that the time has come when we most cease to kick and "cu" office holders and go to kicking and 'cussing" the crowd that voted them into office. There bare been in the last quarter of a century many laws passed touching the fran chise question in the various states. The qualification for aufferage Is a very dif ferent thine today to what it was twenty five years ago even. ; The intelligence in this country is a unit today on the proposition that the man who has- no cash or credit or character haa no more business at the polls voting than a mole or dog. Yankee ' Doodle is sitting quietly and silently looking on at the southern states eliminating Vice and ignorance from the ballot box. If this government is to live and our free insti tutions be perpetuated, the qualifica tion fur suflerage must be brought op to a standard where intelligence, virtue, and character must determine a man's right to vote.. As yet we have no bouse of lords. of pe rs, of dukes, nor ducks. When men talk blood in this, country the average fellow understands him to be referring to Kentucky bred horses or short-horn ed cattle, and a government of the peo ple and by the people and for the peo ple" may be a government for every body, but not by everything that wears, breeches and hair. The twentieth century voter should be an unpurchnsable voter. A man who wi!l sell a vote will sell a.priuc'ple, for a vote represents a principle, acd a mnn that will sell a principle will sell any thing that honor holds dear. A man who will buy a vote will sell a vote, and is as dirty a dog as the fel!ow whoje vote he bought. A man who will buy a vote to get into office will Bell his vote to the l.q ior dealers' association or to corporations after be gets in. A man should be forever outlawed, not only from .office, but from voting, who has either bought or sold a vote. The twentieth ce-ntary votar should 4e an iutellirent voter. The average Democrat and Republican in this coun try doesn't know any more about the principles of the grand old party he runs with than a rabbit dog knows what his master's gun is loaded with. This blind following of party, this ignorance that whoops up the candidate of his party, is as contemptible as it is despi cable. . The twentieth century voter should be a courageous voter, not only unphr chasable, but unbulldczable. The wnite primaries inaugurated by the southern states has largely eliminated the broth er in black, with . his crowd. That theory intends to muBter and organize the intelligence and virture, whose pur pose is to nominate candidates for office. This theory has worked well , in many places; in others strange to say, white primaries have nominated some mighty lousy, dirty devib, to, say nothing of the last legislature assembled in Georgia. They were all nominated by white pri maries. I have sometimes thought I would love to see the negroes get. -a whack next time,with the white voters eliminated, to see if they Could not nominate from the white people of the state a Crowd that would beat the last legislature assembled in Georgia. I sometimes think the reason they did not pass thedepot bill was that the depot was on the other side of the sa loon, and they could not pass the saloon. They say the white primary has come to stay. If so, intelligenc8 and virtue must control , the white primary and nominate in those primaries candidates. approved by the best people of the state, otherwise there will be a revulsion from white primaries that will soon put an end to them. The twentieth century voter should be an independent voter. There has not been a national election in the last twenty-five years that the candidates were not carried to victory by the in dependent voter. A party does not own a man, soul and body, and more than a church does. 1 am a Methodist to the manner born, but whenever . the Methodist church takes off after strange gods ahd forsakes the principles of 'the New Testament Scriptures I am not go ing with them any more than Cleve land and Whitney and Carlisle went with Bryan and his gang. The princi ples of the grand old Democratic party are as well defined and as distinct aB the tentes and creed of Christendom to day. An independent voter is one who stays by principle and does not fol low his party just to be with the gang. The Democratic party for the last 10 years has followed the fife and kettle drum and music and oratory and for saken the principles taught by Thomas Jefferson and the principles that made Oil Hickory Jackson one of the best presidents America ever hadt and makes Cleveland not only the greatest statesman in Americi today but the most hated man by the gang that's bsen following the orators. To be a good Democratic leader now a fellow must be a full-fledged cyclone, f unnelshapped and full of. wind. An independent voter is not controlled by noise and hur rah and fads and francies, but he an chors himself in the great principles of his party ism, and. like the-, mariner at sea he looks at the sun by. day and the north star by night and guides his fhip by them, with but little notice of howl ing winds and beating waves and foam ing whiteaps. - The twentieth century voter should be a voter who loves bis country more than he loves his party ; who votes with an eye single to the glory of bis country and the good of bis home. If patriot ism was the incentive, and the good of Sally and the children at home the in spiration, then the voter can be trusted. I have seen the day in America when the Democrats were in power, and the Republican pa'ty prayed and worked for material disaster financial wreck, and general shrinkage of values, that tbey might be forniasied with cmaipalgti thunder to put them ! In Lower at the next election. The ioWilirenc of IhU country have looked on. When Re publicans have bn ia power the Demo crats looked with longing, Uatf ol eye, and listened with brat ears that they might see or bear of some act or duicr of the Rejjutiican party that would furoUh to them ia' the coming cam paign a slogan that would drive the Republican! oat of power and put them io again. There U eo more patriotina in sentiment and conduct like that than you will find among a pack of wolyet tn the mountains of Colorado. Patriotism is love of country; part vital U lore of office and power.. : Whenever the twentieth century vo ter comes to the front with intriligrtc, patriotiwm, virtue, courage, and the in dependent spirit of manhood, and rote and take interest in who is nominated and work for good government and good efficiah, like the. average fellow aya by his store or fchop or farm, then we will regulate to the nar the little .ot politician, and brio g to the front men who will run the country so ihtt the highest denny may be reached. With a conscience void of offence to ward God and man, and sense enough to know right from wrong, by the grace of God X will vote for whomsoever 1 gentlemanly please to long as I live. These are my sentiments, and I would to God tbey were the sentiments of every decent man in America. -. Youis, ' ' Sam P. Jones. ' t - ' The Crip. '" . The grip which ia now prevailing in differents parts of the country is of a mild type. This ia form n ate, for the number of people affected exceeds that of any previous epidemic of this m tl ady, and were it of a severe"" character, the number of deaths would be sone thing frightful. The press dispatches tell of overcrowded hospitals in New York, while the situation in Cnicago is equally as bad. The grip is epidemic also in Philadelphia and Baltimore. The doctors .have learned a good deal ab'jut this disease in the past. few years and are giving the public liberal infor mation about it in the papers. Dr. John S. Fulton, of Baltimore, gives grip pa tients this advice, which appears to be worth reproducing: Remain in a well-ventilated house. - Keep off the Btreets, especially after nightfall. ' , ' If you must go the streets don't atop to shake hands with your friends. This may not save yjur friends any thing, but it will save your own lungs and kidneys. Don't take remedies, especially stim ulants, except under medical advice. Sleep alone and preserve a good tem per, if possible. The grip, by itself, is not dangerous it is the complications liable to follow that are to be feared. Unless the pa tient is careful" during convalescence there is a liability of contracting pneu monia, typhoid fever, pleurisy, kidney trouble and other dangerous diseases, which the grip patient, with a weaken ed system is ill prepared to withstand. There is probably no disease that racks the nervous system as does the influ ecz poison. The Chicago doctors give the opinion that the cause of the spead of. the in fection in that city is the spitting nuis ance, and the street car officials "have issued orders against expectorating on the car floors. From this source, the doctors say, billions of the poisonous bacilli are winged to those who might otherwise not be exposed to the conta Rion. - A Chair 470 Years Old. John J. Bingley, of Hanover, Pa., has an antiquated armchair that indeed ia a remarkable jriece of furniture. Sixty-two years before. Columbus dis covered America a cabinet maker in the village of Wakefield, England, built this chair.and it has been in continuous service for 470 years; has traveled over thousands of mites of railroad and ocean and is still in a good state of preserva tion. Handed down from father to eldest son for many generation', the chair is now in Hie possession of Mr. Binglev, to whose care it was intrusted in 1845. The material ttaed in its construction is oak, inlaid with many kinds of other wood. It is beautifully carved in fig ures of birds, etc., and is quite heavy. The joints are mortised and tenoned, while wooden pegs sqrve the purpose of screws and nails in the present day. The chair remained in Wakefield a short time, when it was taken to Bing ley, a town named for the ancestors of the present owner. Here the chair re mained daring the reign of exactly 20 kings and queens, from Henry VI to Victoria In 1856 the chair was brought to this country on. the ship Mary Hale and landed at Baltimore. Daring the civil war the old chair was in Richmond, V-, "and there withstood the memora ble siege of that city. The owner left it in the care of ' a friend while he es caped to the North. Subsequently it was takerj to Watertown, N. Y., and in 1894 it was taken to . Hanover. Broaght Good Fortune. A small item in bis own paper lately brought amazing good fortune to Editor Chris. Reitter of the Saginaw (Mich.) post and Zeitung. He and his family had the Grip in its worst form. Their doctor did t hem no good. Then he read that Dr. King's New Discovery for Con sumption, Coughs and Colds was a guaranteed core for La Grippe and all Throat and Lang troubles ; tried it and says : Three bottles cured the whole family.
