The Lady Barber.
From the National Barbel

Before this newer age began
We thought the art tunsorlal
Belonged by right to man
From ages immemorlal.
But she has come, with fixed intent,
To prove TO all the nations
That man is not pre-eminent
In barber-ous operations.
Oh, shaving is a sweet delight
Since she the razor welded
My heart unto her charms so bright
Has altogether yielded
And, though she thinks tits only gush,
My ecstasieS amaze her;
l hail her queen of comb and brush
And goddess of the razor.
Some day, with lather on my cheek
(Such is the plan harbor),
l shall courageously seek
The hand OF my fair barber.
But if she has already found
Some man to love and praise her,
Her NO" would cut me, I'll be bound.
More deeply than her razor.

The Italian police say that President
Carnot's assassin, who is an Italian by
birth, is man without a country and is
insane. The same may be said of all
anarchists, for that matter. They are
against all form Of government and give
allegiance to none, therefore they are
without country. They are against all
forms Of law or restraint, whether social,
moral or spiritual, which is proof of an
abnormal and disclosed mind. Neverthe-
less, the insanity plea should be no bar to
the infiicting Of merited punishment for
anarchistio crimes. Anarchy is a species
Of insanity that can be healed only by
death. u IS a frenzy, aud cannot be
reasoned with, and no attempt at reason
Ing should be made when an anarchist is
found.

If it were practicable to put before the
people next fall constitutional amend
ment abolishing the federal Senate, the
result might open the eyes of those
sleepy old fogies at Washington. The
amendment might be defeated, but the
vote would be so close as to prove to the
senators that the patience of the people
is about exhausted. The manner Of do
ing business that was inaugurated when
Washington was President is not the
business manner demanded by the ad-
vanced age in which everybody, except
the senators, is living.

Duty of the committaaa.

The committees appointed by the clubs
to make tickets to be passed upon by the
democracy of the county at the primary
on July 10 have an important duty to per-
form. The tickets should be made up of
the ablest and best men who can be in
duced to permit their names to go before
the people
There is more interest in candidates for
the legislature than in delegates to the
conventions, because the duties that mem
bers of the legislature will have to per-
form are more important. 1t is pretty
well understood who will be the nominees
for governor and congressman. There
is, therefore, very little interest
comparatively in the question of who
shall be delegates to the state and con-
gressional conventions. The great inter
est centers in the selection of delegates to
the senatorial convention, and the nam
ing of candidates for the lower branch of
the legislature.
The ticket that does not have upon it
the names of capable and representative
men for the legislature will be beaten.
The vote that is not in the clubs holds the
balance of power. and that vote will be
cast for the best men. Even in the clubs
there are 1ny men who will not be
bound by the action of their respective
organizations unless the legislative nomi-
nations of those organizations meet their
approval
There is a very general desire that
Chatham county shall be represented in
the legislature by men who will make the
county's influence felt there. This being
the feeling of the democracy of the county
the committees charged with the duty of
naming the tickets will make serious
mistake if they present tickets that fail
to command general approval. The com
mittees, therefore, should discharge their
duty with an eye single to the public good.
The claims and wishes of men who would
like to be candidates should not be con-
sidered. Only men who are capable of
rendering the public valuable service
should be considered.

country can spare Mrs. Lease just as long
as she may remain abroad, and the longer

NOMINATIONS HELD UP,

That the Senate Committees are
now examining, with far more deli
beration than usual, the nominal
lions sent to the Senate by the
President, is evidenced by the fact
that there is, about forty of these
which were sent to the Senate be-
fore the holidays, which remain
Enacted upon, and nominations
which were made during the extra
session and again made at begin
ming of present session, Of the
forty appointments upon which the
Senate has not acted, fifteen are
for offices in the state of New York,
two in Missouri two in Tennessee,
two in Pennsylvania and two in
Maine and one each in various other
states. The New York appoint
ments which have been held up are
the most important, There is
known to be protests against a con-
frmation growing out of local
causes In some of these cases but
the impression is gaining ground
that senatorial opposition is respon-
sible for the delay in many cases,
Reports on some of these older
New York nominations are I'M
questionably delayed by the COM
mittee at the request of New York
senators, and the same is also true
in the case of some other States.
Senators say the delay is to be at
tributed to the desire to exercise
due precaution in making out re-
ports.

KNOWLEDGE

Brings comfort and improvement and
tends to personal enjoyment when
rightly used. The many, who live bet
ter than others and enjoy life more, with
less expenditure, by more promptly
adapting the worlds best products to
the needs of physical being, will attest
the value to health of the pure liquid
laxative principles embraced in the
remedy, Syrup of Figs.
Its excellence is due to its presenting
in the form most acceptable and pleas
ant to the taste, the refreshing and truly
beneficial properties of perfect lax
alive; effectually cleansing the system,
dispelling colds, headaches and fevers
and permanently curing constipation;
1t has given satisfaction to millions and
met with the approval of the medical
profession, because it acts on the KID
neys, Liver and Bowels without weak
ening them and it is perfectly free from
every Objectionable substance.
Syrup of Figs is for sale by all drug
gists in SOC and 81 bottles, but it is man

NO ADVICEs FROM BENHAM.

Washington, January 31,-Neith-
er the State nor Navy Depart
ments received any further infor-
nation during the day on the Bra
lillian situation. Further informal
ton has been requested from Adj
miral Benham as there seem to be
one or two features of the incident
that are rather vaguely understood
by the department, 1t is not
known, and it is thought to be not
true, that any instructions have
been sent to Admiral Benham other
than the general instructions of all
naval commanders to protect the
rights of American citizens. He
announced to the Navy Depart
ment on last Saturday the course
he proposed to pursue and it was
undoubtedly approved before he
acted, A surrender by Da Cana
to Benham would embarrass this
Government and Admiral Benham
has either signifed that he under
stands this or has been warned Of
the fact. His purpose is not to be
understood as intervening against
the insurgents, but simply as pro-
tecting American interests against
aggressions by the insurgents, and
the policy Of the Government is UNI
derstood to be one of an approval
of Benhams course in compelling
recognition Of rights of American
shipping while refraining from in
terference. in the internecine strug-
ole i'm Brazil.

ALIEN CONTRACT LABORERs.
They will be Deported if the Laws
are not Complied with.

1t is announced from Washington
that Superintendent Stump of the
immigration bureau, with the APP
proval of Secretary Carlisle, has is
sued circular concerning the ar
rest and deportation of alien con-
tract laborers. 1t directs that inn
migrant inspectors shall carefully
inspect all cases of violation of the
alien contract labor laws which
come to their knowledge by obser-
walton or complaint, and report the
same with all the facts and circum-
stances connected Herewith to the
superintendent of immigration. If,
in the latters judgment, the case
is sufficiently established, the Sec
rotary of the treasury will be asked
within one year after the landing
or entry of the immigrants, to or
der said alien contract laborers to
the country from whence they came
at the expense of the vessels bring
ing them into the United States,
but if from an adjoining country,
at the expense of the persons pre-
viously contracting for their ser
vices. The circular is, of course,
intended for general application,
but its provisions are expected to
apply at this time particularly to
the case of Spanish alien contract
cigar makers who recently came
from HAVANA to work in Key West
cigar factories. Superintendent
Stump has been waiting for the
names of these men be-
fore preparing a formal warrant
for their deportation. One list
which has come to hand brought
the names of about 1870 men, and
another list is expected in day or
two It is expected that a large
proportion of men will be ordered
deported to Havana although final
action in the case has not yet been

STATE BANK TAX.
The Question of its Repeal to be
Decided in Congress Today.

The much debated question of
the repeal of the 10 per cent tax,
on State banks, which has been ag-
itated in congress, since the open
ing of the present session, by the
southern and Western members of
that body, will, it is thought, be
brought to focus in the House
committee on banking and curren-
cy today. Several bills involving
this step are before the committee
but it has been decided to take a
vote on the bill drawn by represen-
tative Cox, of Tennessee, which is
for unconditional repeal. This
question was discussed in the com
mittee last session, and various
bills explained by their authors. 1t
developed in the discussion that the
committee is very much divided on
the banking question, and the vote
OF one or two members whose po-
sition is in doubt depends upon the
fate of the bill in its first stage.
Judge Cox says the bill will certain
ly be reported, either for the un-
conditional repeal of the tax or re-
peal with some limitations. After
it has been reported, as he says, it
will be pushed in the house as soon
as a right Of way has been obtained
for it. This bill will be the first inn
portant measure emanating from
the banking and currency commit
tee this congress. Chairman Spring
er, Of the committee, has embodied
in the form of bill his scheme for
a uniform banking system, but has
done so rather to bring the whole
matter before the committee and
effect an expression of views than
with the expectation of his ideas to
be crystalized in legislation

Last NIGHTS Fires.

At 10 o'clock last night, the alarm
of fire was sounded, calling the city
fire departments to burning out
house, belonging to the Southern
Cottage, situate on the West side,
corner of Moores and State streets
The larger building is occupied by
MIR. H. w Schofeld, who was, we
understand, entirely without insur-
ance. The flames were checked
without material damage to any
other than the first house caught.
The excitement from the first
fire had scarcely died away, when a
second alarm was sounded. This
time the alarm came from vacant
cottage on Maple street, West side,
opposite Judge S. D. Lary's resi-
dence. The fire department re-
sponded promptly and succeeded in
preventing spread of the flames.
The second house was also uninsur-

OKLAHOMA STATEHOOD.
Considering the Claims of Oklahoma
and the Iidian Country
to Statehood,

The subcommittee of the Com
mittee on territories, which is hear
ing arguments, at Washinton, for
and against the admission of the
country comprising the five civil
lied Indian tribes with Oklahoma,
as a state, held another meeting
yesterday,
The representatives of the In
dians were present and the debate
was carried on in rather a colloquial
way. The embarrassment which the
committee seems to labor under is
the fact that while one side says
the Indians want to come into the
Union as a state with Oklahoma the
othes side denies the fact. There
fore the issue is reduced to facts
given so far are the assertions of
the gentlemen representing the
contending elements of the In
dams.
Gen. Colby, representing the OPP
position to statehood to Oklahoma,
addressed the committee. He de-
scribed the prosperous and happy
condition of the five tribes, entered
into the most pleasant descriptions
of the schools and progress of the
people, called the attention of the
committee to the past of the tribes
and reminded it of the treaties from
1925 to the present time. He said
he had never met an Indian citizen
in the Creek or Cherokee nation
who favored statehood of the five
tribes with Oklahoma. He said there
was no desire among the tribes for
statehood outside of the desire of
non-citizens who were in the terri
tory by marriage or courtesy, He
was rather severe on the desire of
this class of people for the lands,
etc, He made quite an impressive
speech,
Mr., Hornbeck submitted the
names of several persons, two of
whom he knew and knew
the Indian citizens who had signed
request to him to represent them
here and urge statehood. The 9th
er persons signing the request he did
not know.
Ms McAdams resented the dec
larations of Gen. Colby as to the
interloper, He said the whites in
the territory were as five to one to
the Indians and they should be
considered, They had gone to the
territory and lived there according
to the law,
Mr., Duncan, representing the
Cherokees against statehood with
Oklahoma, made some remarks, All
the way through the controversy
was a running character and mem
orials against statehood are prom
ised from the Indian councils, There
was quite spirited controversy as
to the attitude the tribes we're as
suming toward the Dawes commits
sion, the statehood people claiming
that these tribes had already as
sumed an attitude of opposition to
the object of such commission.
