The jury returned a verdict of acci
1i nt.il death on the man who fell from
tin window ledge on which he had fallen
asleep. But the death was really due to
carelessness
the accident

There are a
freat many

carelessness,
although the

tificate may

"I had Wen troubled with a pain in lower
jart of my stomach for three years, so severe I
thought it would kill me in time," writes Mr.
Anr'.n Van Ham, of (Kensington) 119th St..
Chit ago. 111. "I could hardly work; it felt like
a !iK weight hanffinif on me and got so bad that
I had to take medicine. I used Stomach Bitters
for a time, but it did no pood so I wrote to Dr.
R V Pierce for advice, which he gave me im
mediately. I followed his directions; used two
bottles of his medicine and was cured. I had a
torpid liver which was troubling me instead of
1 ramps (as I thought), so Dr. Pierce told me.
I have pleasure in livinsr now; have gained in
weight 15 pounds since then."

Indigestion Causes
Catarrh of tKe
Stomach.
For many years It has been supposed thai
Catarrh of the Stomach caused indigestion
and dyspepsia, but the truth is exactly tho
opposite. Indigestion causes catarrh. Re
peated attacks of indigestion inflames the
mucous membranes lining the stomach and
exposes the nerves of the stomach, thus caus
ing the glands to secrete mucin instead of
the juices of natural digestion. This is
called Catarrh of the Stomach.

It detracts nothing from the use-

the occupants of the bench. Dress

be peculiarly fitting to our suprem

Charlotte Observer.
The Norfolk Virginian-Pilot quotes
Wm. K. Curtis, the Washington cor
respondent of the Chicago Ilecoril
Heruhl as follows:
"I do not wish to raise a 'sectional
issue,' but I have yet to hear of a
rich man in the South putting his
hand in his pocket to find money to
pay the expenses of educating the
masses. There are plenty of rich men
in the South, and they are generous
in other directions. In the city of
New York alone there are many mil
lionaires from this section who, not
withstanding their pride in other re
spects, permit the benevolent spirit
of the North to monopolize the priv-
ltege of promoting: Southern educa
tion. They never lack words of pa
triotism and affection for the 'South
land,' as they call it; they are in
spired with uncontrollable enthus-
asm when the band plays 'Dixie,
but when there is a disaster in the
South that calls for financial relief,
when the hat is passed around for
contributions to establish and main
tain schools for their former neigh
bors, thev seldom contribute a dol
lar, and when conferences are called
to consider means to advance the
welfare of 'the poor white trash' of
the South they never have time to
attend. This not only true as a rule
of rich Southern men who live in the
North, but it is even more true of the
rich men who still live in the South.
They are absolutely indifferent to
the illiteracy and morality of the
masses. They are full of sentiment
for their beloved 'Southland,' but
have no time or money to devote to
the practical, mental and moral im
provement of its inhabitants."
Our Norfolk contemporary resents
this criticism of its people in unmis
takable language. After saying that
the Dukes, of Durham, have given to
Trinity College more in the last ten
years than has been contributed by
the whole ot the North to the sun
port of Southern institutions for the
education of whites within the same
time, it continues:
"In proportion to their means the
Southern people give as generously
to schools and colleges as the people
of the North. It is only within the
last few years that they have been
able to give anything material. The
Yankees burned, destroyed and stole
the property of the South to such an
extent that it took the Southern peo
ple a quarter of a century to get back
to anything like comfortable circum
stances. A millionaire was an abso
lutely unknown animal, and he is so
rare now that not one Southern man
in a thousand has ever seen him. In
deed, it is doubtful if the South will
.average three millionaires to the
State. It is, therefore, easy to insti
tute a comparison between the North
and South unfavorable to the latter.
But if Mr. Curtis will induce his es
teemed fellow-citizens at the North to
pay fifty cents on the dollar for the
property they stole and destroyed,
the Southern people will generously
endow and support all their educa
tional institutions.
The Virginian-Pilot had its nerve
with it to publish such things as this
while the conference for education
was in session in its State capital.
and it will doubtless be called to task
by some of its fellow-citizens for its
indiscretion. Our Virginia contem
porary should be more courteous
than to reier to the late unpleasant
ness under the circumstances. W hat
it says may be true, but just now
there is a disposition on the part of
certain wealthy Northerners to turn
their coin this way and help us shake
off the "pall of ignorance" provided
we will let them, and when the nego
tiations are actually under way to
the end of seeking the best plan of en
lightening our people and some of
our leading educators are fully
aroused on the subject and holding
out both hands for contributions it
is indiscreet, to say the least, for a
Southern editor to flare up in the
above fashion.

An Important Admission.
Atlanta Constitution.
Commenting on the speech of Col
onel Henry Watterson before the
Hamilton Club, of Chicago, the De
troit Free Press gives utterance to
some thoughts that are remarkable
for their sanity, considering that pa
per's environments.
Colonel yatterson told the mem
bers of the Hamilton Club that the
race question could not be settled by
political agitation, and he also made
it very clear that the average negro
of the South i.s totally unfitted to
wield the franchise; for the very sim
ple reason that he understands neith
er the importance nor the meaning
thereof.
The Detroit Five Press seems to be
convinced on these points, for it
plainly tells the people of the North
that "Colonel Watterson is standing
on solid ground," and admits that
political agitation has been tried and
failed. Tne Free Pivss says:
"Most men of the North have come
to understand that negro suffrage in
the aggregate has not proved a suc
cess, and that the country has not
been able to digest this enormous
mass of citizenship which appreciated
none of it duties and responsibili
ties. In individual cases the negro
has demonstrated his right to exer
cise the franchise.- En masse, we
have learned the folly of trying to
create citizens by reckless fiat of law.
If the South, in the exercise of that
6elf-preservation which is the first
law of nature, chooses to adopt con
stitutions and enact laws which ex
clude from the polls all negroes who
have not earned the right of suffrage,
none of us can quarrel with her. In
this, the Southern States are exercis
ing a sovereign right common to all
States, and which cannot beMenied
them or withheld."
The above is simply plain, common
sense. It recognizes the situation as
it exists; it admits that the people
who are most directly concerned in
this problem are the only ones who
can be safely trusted to settle it.
Had the Free Press stopped right
there its editorial would have boon
altogether sound and of value. But
the old sectional feeling will crop up
in connection with everything that
pertains to this race problem. For
instance, instead of resting its repu
tation for common sense and fairness
on the foregoing, the Free Press
adds to it the assertion that ' if the
South disfranchises the negro, the
states on the nether side of the line
have no legal right to representation 1
in Congress on the basis of this dis
franchised vote."
This seems to be a sore point with
all Northern papers that undertake
a discussion of the South s race prob
lem. As much as they recognize the
justice of the Soutlrs attitude toward
the negro, this thing of the South's
"representation in Congress" always
seems to stick in their craw.
It seems impossible for them to
recognize another very important
fact in connection with this problem;
that the South has merely been doing
what other sections of the country
have done excluded ignorance from
the polls. Various Northern states
have placed an educational qualifica
tion on the voter, and we do not find
that their representation in Congress
has been affected thereby.
The Detroit Free Yessadmitsthat
ignorance should not be entrusted
with the franchise. It should occur
to all reasoning minds that to dis
franchise ignorance is absolutely es
sential to good government. This is
all that the South 1ms done. And
this is what has been done elsewhere.
The North gave the negro the fran
chise and in doing so it almost dou
bled the South's representation in
Congress and in the electoral colleg?.
It was no work of ours. To nullify
this condition of affairs it must re
peal those enfranchising clauses of
the federal constitution which made
this situation possible. No Southern
state can repeal the federal constitu
tion, nor has one 01 them attempted
to do so. But they can, and some of
them do, insist on an educational
qualification for voters. This do
prives no one of a vote who has any
right thereto, moral or otherwise.
A BLACK MOSES.
Booker Washington So Held Up by
Some Men of the North.
Charity and Children.
Hon. G rover Cleveland made a no
table speech in New York last week
on the Southern educational prob
lem. He showed n clear insight into
tho Southern situation that lias not
yet dawned on the Northern mind.
His advice to his countrymen with
reference to the "white man's burden"
is most timely. He ver' clearly shows
that this burden cannot be lifted at
long range, but that if it is ever lifted
at all it must be done by those near
est to it. The sympathy he feels for
the people of the' South as they stag
ger under the tremendous problem
they must solve, is real and not
feigned; and the South will thank
him for his brave and helpful words.
But while all this is true, Mr. Cleve
land breaks down exactly at the
Eoint where a majority of the mem
ers of the General Education Board
have failed. These gentlemen have
not lived in the South and cannot in
terpret the Southern spirit. Tho re
demption of the South from ignor
ance will never come by way of Tus
keegee. Southern people are tired to
death of hearingabout Booker Wash
ington. They are not ready yet to
accept him as tle educational Moses.
He is a negro, and not half as smart
as lie is represented to be. But the
majority of the members of the Edu
cation Board look upon Washington
as the peerless and unrivalled leader
in Southern education. Some of us
remember what one of them unwit
tingly let out at Winston. If the
South is to enjoy the beneficence of
the Standard Oil Company in the ed
ucation of its children it must do two
things: allow the Board to control
the situation, and accept Booker
Washington as the second father of
his country. To be sure Dr. Mclver
and Dr. Alderman will be allowed to
make red-hot Southern speeches; but
Mr. Rockefeller holds the strings, and
gold outweighs gab.

Justice Has Been Outraged.
Kington Fit Press.
The three men guilt v of the recent
horrible affair at Raleigh, and who
have admitted their guilt, save the
use of force, have escaped the clutches
ot the law merely because their vic
tim was five months past the age of
fourteen.
In this way even-handed justice was
grossly outraged, liecause the law's
imperfection permitted thedastardly
deed to go unpunished. Laxities in
the law that allow such human brutes
as Gooch, Smith and Putney to go
free make honest, upright men burn
with indignation.
Adequate punishment for such
crimes can and must be provide!.
A Oreat Sensation.

when W. H. Brown of that place, who vu
expected to die, had hi life pared by Dr.

Asthma, but your Xew Discovery gave me
immediate relief and coon thereafter effected
a complete cure." Similar cases of Consump

A Little Early Riser
now and then, at bedtime will cure constipa
tion, biliousness and liver troubles. De Witt's
Little Early Risers are the buiious lit tle il!s
that cure by arousing the secretions, moving
the bowels gently, yet effectually, and giving
such tone and strength to the glands of the
stomach and liver that the cause of the trou
ble is removed eutirely, and if their use iscon
tinued for a few days, there will be no return
of the complaint. Sold by W. V. Parker.
New Scientific Discovery.
We are never so strong as when we
are thanful.
Ilemarkable developments have recently re
sulted from chemical laboratory experiments
on the digestion of food. A most remarkable
instance recently took place in the labora
tories of E.C.DeWittA Co.. of Chicago, where
chemical experiments are regularly carriwl
on. In the test referred to, one teaspoonful
of Kodol, a preparation consisting of a com
bination of vegetable acids and the natural
peptones which a healthy stomach should
contain, and the preparing of which is the re
sult of scientific research and experiments,
was placed in a glass tube containing 3,0M
grains of food, consisting of niince pie, mo
lasses Handy, spoiige cake, white bread,
boilod ham, pork fat. roast beef, boiled pota
toes, cheese, bard boiled eggs, nuts and baked
beans. This food was placed in a tnlte in its
original state, the tube was placed in water
and heated overalcoVollampBuntilitreached
a temperature of 103 degrees, which is the
normal temperaturs of the stomach. In the
short time of four hours the entire mass of
food was thoroughly digested, the action of
'he Kodol having lieen more complete in its
work than it is possible even for the most
healthy stomach to accomplish, and it is not
believed that there is one person out of one
hundred whose stomach would have so com
pletely digested this mass of food. There are
preparations which will digest certain classes
of food, but the great desideratum has been
to obtain one that will digest all classes of
food. This has been found in this important
discovery. Kodol is considered in medical
science the first discovery of a preparation
that contains the exact juices and acids that
are to be found in a healthy stomach. Kodol
contains them in inst the same proportions.

Confession of Henry Youtsey.
Charlotte Observer.
The confessions upon the witness
stand of Henry Youtsey, alleging
that the assassination of Governor
f Joeliel was due to a plot for which
theliepubliean administration 01 the
State of Kentucky was responsible,
recall one 01 the most abhorent inci
dents in American history. The more
this plot has had the search-light of
investigation turned upon it, the
clearer has it leen proven that Gov
ernor Taylor played a prominent
part, if not the leading part, in the
murder jus conspiracy. For the rea
son that this assassination was so
carefully planned, and that by men
who bore the government of a State
upon their shoulders, it lecomes a
worse crime, as the Pittsburg Post
says, than the murder of Lincoln,
Garfield or McKinley. And vet two
successive Governors of the sovereign
State of Indiana have refused to
honor requisitions which would sur
render for trial the arch-conspirator
who has taken refuge in their baili
wick. Their protection of the fugi
tive criminal but makes this blot
upon American history the blacker.
