Mr. W. D. Lewis and wife left
Monday morning for Fair Bluff
where Mr. Lewis will buy tobacco
for the Imperial Company. Mr.
Lewis, Uncle Billy, as all of his
friends call him, insists that the
town should be called "Svvsm

never enlightened the public. He
is easily one of the most popular
buyers ever on this market, and
while he usually spends about
two months on the market at
Fair Bluff he and his estimable
family make this their home and

Democratic administration is com

mean the end of the tariff protec

have .plundered the people for
nearly a score of years, the tariff
trusts have let it be known 1hat a
rise in tne prices or tneir com
modities may be expected this
fall. These trusts are determined
to take one final gouge into the
pocketbooks of the people before
they are pushed away from the
trough of special privilege at
which they have been growing
fat.
The leather trust, which is

Promptly at 11 o'clock the exer
cises began, and we have to say
that we were very agreeably sur
prised at the excellent behavior as
well as at the nice recitations
which were numerous and very
good, especially thise recited by
the little blind girl and the one
who declared she would- never
marry a drunkard. Oh, that more
of our young ladies would come
i to this conclusion. I have often
thought and said that the ladies of
our land and country could man
age the whiskey drinking to a
great extent if they would, by de
claring that they would not keep
company with a young man .with
the fumes of liquor on his breath.
Well, the exercises closed about

had a plenty. After dinner was

mission's report on the express
monopoly sets forth that while
the express companies are pay
ing dividends on a capitalization
of $106,000,000, their actual in
vestment . is only $7,000,000.
This report also shows that the
express companies are all owned
by the railroads on whose lines
thev operate, so that by maintain
ing the express companies, the
railroads simply collect a
higher price for carrying
certain classes of freight than
they could collect were thev re

The express graft is one of the
main reasons for the high cost of
food, as much food stuff, espe
cally to a governmental guarantee
to violate the laws. After the de
cree was issued the trust 'owners
discovered that the monopoly
stood in no further danger of
prosecution, and as this always
has been the great menace to the
trust, it was a great boon to have
it removed. Accordingly the value
of the shares went sykward.
As a result, other trusts have
begun to "dissolve." The beef
trust has announced a "disso
lution" plan, so that it, too, will
conform to the Supreme court's
notion of what constitutes a law

There is more Catarrh in this section of the country
than all other diseases put together, and until tne .last
tew years was supposed to be incurable. For a great
many years doctors pronounced it a local disease and
prescribed local remedies, and by constantly failing
(to cure with local treatment, pronounced it incurable.
Science has proven Catarrh to be a constitutional dis
ease, and therefore requires constitutional treatment.
Hall's Catarrh Cure, manufactured by F. J. Cheney
& Co., Toledo, Ohio, Is the only Constitutional cure on
the market. It is taken internally in doses from 1C
drops to a teaspoonful. It acts directly on the biood
