A Distressing Case Reported from Dit
rnersville-C harity's Chance.

A Distressing Case Reported from Dit
mersville-C harity's Chance.
A distressing case Of poverty and suffer
ing is said to exist in the southern portion
of Dittmersville II colored settlement on the
White Bluff road The unfortunate is a
young colored woman named Caroline John
son. Her father, whose name was Nor
decai died some time ago, leaving a widow,
who is tho girls stepmother. The latter has
taken charge of the little property that her
husband died possessed Of, and is either un-
able or unwilling to take care of the girl,
who is confined to little room, unable to
move, and with but little attention. Gen
Harrison, who reported the case, states that
the colored people say the disease is leprosy,
and that the girls face and limbs are greatly
swollen and covered with scales. He thinks,
however, that it is bad case of scrofula.
1t would not be out of place for some of the
colored people to investigate this matter
and see what can be done. There is a pub
JIG institution for the care of sick negroes,
and an effort should be made to have the
woman placed in it, where she can receive
proper treatment

People Wants
ADVERTISING AT ONE CENT 4
WORD FOR EACH INSERTION.

To enable the readers OF the MoRSIye NEWS
10 advertise at a mere nominal figure a rate
of ONE CENT A WORD was established
about eighteen months ago for advertisements
inserted in the Cheap Column. This column
has been well patronized and is now a popular
feature Of the paper. There are many people,
however, who would avail themselves Of the
advantages offered by advertising, but they do
not because they do not, or think they do not,
know how to write an advertisement. To
meet this difficulty the MORNING NEWS takes
this method Of informing advertisers who de-
sire to use the Cheap Column that there are
clerks in the Office from A. NJ to 10 p. Ii.
who will write up advertisements in proper
form. The Cheap Column is open to any un-
Objectionable advertisement, thus giving bust
ness men, as we'll as the transient advertiser,
the advantages of presenting their announce
ments to the public at small cost.

Macon and "Our Larry"

The Macon Telegraph, in reporting the
Booth-Barrett performance in that city,
says: Georgia has sent abroad many peo-
pie who have won distinction on the stage
on merit alone, and among them are some
from Macon For this reason the audience
last night were pleased to greet Mr. Hanley.
who was born right here under the shadow
of Wesleyan College. Savannah claims
him because the greater part of his boyhood
was spent there, but he is Macon born. The
play of 'Othello' gives him but little oppor-
tunity to show what be can do, but Macon
has seen him seasons agone, and appreciates
the high position the genius that has won
for him place in the greatest company
now on American boards

IRISHMEN NOT FOR SALE.

One thousand Irishmen, in New
York, who voted for Blaine in 1884,
have declared for Cleveland and
Thurman IN 1888. This is a flop
worth talking abont. -Statesmdn.
That's sweet morsel for papers
like the Statesman, that would make
party capital at the expense of
honor and manhood. The New
York Tribune tells the whole story,
and these are the main facts: Edw.
p. Rowe and John t. Meony made
a proposition to the Republican
Committee through Chairman Quay,
taken down in writing, to give the
Republicans 1000 Irish votes for
81 900. The proposition was reject.
ed and intense Indignation was
aroused among the IRISH Americans
when the fact became known, These
same men approached the Demo-
cratic managers, and the claim
above made by a Democratic paper
would indicate that somebody was
cheated. The two corrupt political
leaders might have taken the cash
but they can't deliver the goods.
The Irishmen who were thus put up
to the highest bidder denounce the
corrupt scheme, and many of them
will show their manhood and princi.
pie in the right way at the proper
time. If this is one of the Demo.
Gratis intellectual features OF the
campaign, no honest American, be
he Irish or not, will rejoice over it.
Desperate Democracy, if thy cause
is so grand and noble, and thy lead.
ers great and pure, why are thy
methods human degradation,-the
price of honor and manhood BY
their fruits you shall know them.

badly over the Vermont and Maine
elections, each of which shows large
accession to the folds of Protection.
The picnic of the Bedington Sunday
School on Saturday was very tame
affair, occasioned no doubt by the
lateness of the season. Some of our
enthusiastic politicians forgot that 1t
was Sunday-school affair and in con-
sequence became very boisterous at
times, for you well know that the
average politician has no room in his
mind for anything but politics, and
imagines that if he doesn't make all
the noise he can, he is not doing his
duty, Oh for time when politics
will be free from the trickery and
frauds that characterize it on every
hand.
We have some Belva Lockwood
voters here. We may treat upon
them according to our views in our

Gen. Golf. Republican candidate
for Governor, and w. L. Wilson,
Democratic candidate for Congress,
are to have joint discussions at ten
places in West Virginia, five to be
named by one side and five by the
other. The Democratic Committee
refused to put their candidate for
Governor, Judge Fleming, against
the Republican candidate for Cover
nor, Gen. Golf. They say he has
not had time to get "such political
information as would fit him for the
general discussion of the economic
and political issues involved in the
present canvass" If judge has
not had time to inform himself On the
questions of the day, how can men
who have continuous hard work. Few
statesmen or politicians have the
time to make any issue a study.
Average intelligence reads the pa.
pers and watches public actions
through the medium of every. day
news. Either Judge Fleming does
not read the papers or has not the
intelligence and judgment necessa.
~ to keep himself informed. A poor
Governor he would make in compar.
iSOn with Golf!
