After many days Judge Taylor
Beattie has decided to contest the
seat of Hon. Andrew Price in Con-
gress. In the notice which he has
served on Mr.. Price he reCites a
narrowing tale of murder: blOodshcd
and Intimidation, wordel SO as to
make the hair on the Republican
craniums stand up in horror. One
would suppose that Judge Eeat;ie
does not care SO much about going
to Congress-, but that his heart is
bleeding buckets full of blood for
| the poor negro who has been the
victim of Caucasian atrocities.
Judge Bcatcie, however, has not
been as stcadfast a friend of the ne
gro as some people might imagine,
and no one is better aware CT the
fact than the negroes of the Third
District themselves, but nevertheless
the Judge is in the habit of going
first one way and then another, first
with the blacks and then with the
whites, and SO on to the end OF tae
chapter. In view OF the fact how
ever, that Judge Bcatiie was sup.

Re courteous and kind to all
to the poor as we'll as the rich, to
the humble as we'll as the elevated;
to the young and to the old. There
is nothing lost by pleasant words.
Some who are clothed with a little
authority will show their bad ma
lures at times, to the unhapplness
and perhaps disgust of their sub
ordinates. 1t does not indicate
good breeding, or friendly,
Christian spirit, to be rough or in
different to a modest request, how
ever humble the inquiry may be.
Some persons will go long dis
lance with an inquirer, who is a
stranger in the ighbo1hood, and
thus perform an act benevolent and
Christian. Others, rather snappish-
ly, may reply to the seeker, E'Don't
know - and hurriedly pass on.
Let us all cndeavor to cultivate q
spirit of kindness and sympathy, in
imitation of the precepts Of oul
Savior, and we shall make mankind
happier, and exert a more healthy:

Growing Tulips and Hyacinths'

The most successful growers of tu-
lips and hyacinths advise the following
treatment: If bulbs are wished to
flower at Christmas, plant in Septem-
Der, writes Nancy Mann Waddle in an
exquisitely illustrated article on "The
First Flowers" in the April Ladies
Home JON nal They thrive best in
light, thoroughly drained and rich
soil, and in pots not too large. Give
plenty of water. Tulips should be
planted about two inches below the
surface of the soil, but hyacinths
should be covered with earth about
half the depth of the pot. After plant
ing set the pots in dark, cool place,
from four to six weeks. When the
growth has begun bring the young
plants to the light, but keep them in a
cool temperature. Too much forcing
will cause the leaves to grow too rank.
ly, and the stock to bend and droop,
weakening the bloom as well. The
blossoms will last much longer, also
if not subjected to too much heat II
the hyacinth begins to bloom imper
fectly, before the stalk has pushed up
well from the base of the leaves, pu

into bloom on one side, while the bell
on the other side remain tightly clos

REV. l. ". HILL.
Pastor Methodist Church, Accord, N. T.,
says cancerous diseases can be cured.

ACCORD, n. Y.-Under the old
school method it was believed that
any disease of cancerous growth
could never be cured. Tie surgeons
knife was resorted to, but the old
trouble was sure to break out again.
Since the discovery of DIR. Ken.
nedy's Favorite Remedy, all this has
been changed-the action of Favorite
Remedy upon the system leaves no
trace of poison in the blood, the
seeds of disease are expelled and lost
health restored. A notable case Of
the efficacy of DR.. David Kennedy's
Favorite Remedy is that of the Rev.
|. w. Hill of this town. Some years
ago he was suffering with cancer of
long standing, on his lip, and finally
concluded to have it removed. In
speaking of his case Pastor Hill said :
"About three weeks previous to having
the operation performed, | purchased
DR.. Kennedy's Favorite Remedy and
continued taking it for some tiue
after the cancer was removed. Ten
long years have passed since then
and no trace Of the ugly thing has re-
turned l speak with knowledge If
the highest terms of DIR. Kennedy''
Favorite Remedy as being able tt
cure the troubles for which it is pre-
pared"
One of our local physicians said, il
explaining the demand for DR.. Ken
nedy's Favorite Remedy: 1T act
as nerve and blood food, and to m
knowledge it has made many pei
manent cures of Nervous Debility

BLOW AT SWEAT SHOPS.
The House Finally Passes the Bill Tor the
Protection OF Employees.

The Baker act passed by the Senate
to regulate the employment and pro
vide for the safety of persons employ
ed in tenement houses and shops
where clothing, cigarettes, cigars and
certain other articles are made, and
to provide for the appointment OF
inspectors to enforce the law came up
on third reading and final passage on
Thursday. On the question OF pass
ing it on third reading there was con
siderable opposition when a vlve voce
vote was taken, but 1t carried by a
small majority. -,
Mr.. Focht, suspecting that the bill
was in danger, informed the House
that it had been indorsed by all the
leading labor organizations in the
State and that it was the only bill now
before the Legislature directly in the
interest of the laboring classes. He
hoped that those present would under
stand what they were doing when they
struck at this bill.
Mr.. Bliss pleaded for the passage
of the bill in the interest of common
humanity. He referred to the swea
shops in our large cities, which will bt
eradicated under the operations o
this new law, and stated that although
it would cost something to accomplish
this end it would be well worth tn
cost to wipe out this blot on humanity
Mr.. Dandy, of Montgomery, de
Tended the bill at length, and com
pared the small number Of Deput
Factory Inspectors we have in TIL
State with those of New York AM
!. Ohio. In New York, he said, tn
increase of Deputy Inspector ha
resulted in driving the sweat shoT
: into Pennsylvania, and we are con
PEELED to increase the force IN ordt
to protect ourselves.
E This disposed of the opposition an

years to I nay, Mr.. Kerr, of YorI

A preacher, an exchange says, call

made complaint in this way: "You
editors dare not tell the truth. If you
did, you could not live your news
paper would be failure" The editor
replied: "You are right; and the
minister who will at all times and
under all circumstances tell the whole
truth about his members alive or dead,
will not occupy his pulpit more than
one Sunday and then he will find it
necessary to leave town in hurry.
The press and the pulpit go hand in
hand with whitewash brushes and
pleasant words, magnifying little
virtues into big ones. The pulpit
the pen and the gravestone are th(
great saint-making triumvirate." AnC
the great minister went away looking
very thoughtful, while the editor turn
ed to his work and told about tn
surprising beauty of the bride, while
in fact she was as homely as hedg
