a consideration under any circum

gave the water works company a fran
chise in consideration of a number of
hydrants allowed the city free of
charge and he saw no difference in the

Alderman Boushall wanted to know

of the telephones 1n return for a franr
chise from the company did not exempt

Mil. JII.IAN'S HILL.
An editorial from Norfolk Ledgvr
:
The bill introduced in the North Car
lina Legislature yesterday, providing
for a constitutional amendment th u
will enable the money devoted to school
purposes to be divided in a different
manner from that which now obtains,
is one of the results of the deplorable
political condition that prevailed in
that State during the time that the
Populist-Rcpubl'iein party was in con-
tiol. The proposition is to devote the
taxes paid by. the negroes to the sup
port of negro schools, and for the white
schools to receive the taxes paid ly
the whites. At present the school fund
is apcrtioned according to population,
regardless of the color of those who pay
the taxes. Such a proposition has b-.-eii
advanced in our StM.-.e, but it has no-
commanded much strength as yet, and
would consider it very unfortunate
tor the negro population should it ever
pu'vuil, as Its effect would be to destroy
the schools now conducted for colored
hildren. Thai such will be the effect
in North Carolina, if the suggested
iiange ocrurs, we have no doubt,
South Carolin'i, when it changed its
constitution so as to limit sun rage.
made greater provision for the support-
of its public schools than under the old
institution, and we think that such
action was preferable to the plan that
lias been suggested ill North Caroiiin.

A startling incident, of which Mr.
John Oliver of Philadelphia, was the
subject, is narrated by him as follows:
'I was in a most dreadfui condition.
My akin was almost yellow, eyes sunk
en, tongue coated, pain continuilly in
back and sides, no appetite gradually
growing weaker day by day. Three
physicians had given me up. Fortun
ately, a friend advised trying Electric
Bitters; und to my great Joy and sur
prise, the first bottle made a decided
improvement. I continued their use for
three week, and am now a. well man. I
know they saved my life, and robbed
the grave of another victim." No one
should fail to try them. Only 50 cents
a bottle at any drug store.
