One Disease and One Remedy

"The art of painting" said Mlllais
''consits in selecting the right colors
and putting them in the right place.
''The way to win a battle" said Napo-
leon, sis to mass your troops at the
critical moment aginst the weakest
spot in the enemy's line. The way to
cure many ailments, said the great DIR.
Abercrombie, "is to purify the poison
ed spring in which they arise, gener-
ally the torpid and infamed digestive
system"
Thus wisdom and experience sim
plifv and condense. Thus the Shakers
of Mount Lebanon reasoned when they
sought, and finally found, a remedy
for indigestion and dyspepsia. Where
one person has some thing else, they ar
que, a thousand have this. To cure
this alone, will almost rid the world
of sickness. Why should we vex our
selves with confusing definitions? A
good digestion is life and death; a bad
one disease and death. Hence from the
healing and stimulating mountain
herbs, they extracted the principles
which make the Shaker Digestive Cor
dial the rarest and most effective of
medicines of one disease, and one only
indigestion and dyspepsia.
DO you suffer from any OF these mis-
cradle feelings p depression of spirits,
heaviness and pains in the stomach af-
ter meals, bad taste in the mouth, wind
in the bowels, irritable disposition,
nervous weakness and alarm, worry
and WEAKNESS, costiveness, or irregu-
larity of the bowels, nausea, palpita-
tion, sick headache, heartburn, loss of
appetite and sleep, dry skin, ETC.?
Don't indulge in fifty foolish fancies.
You have indigestion and dyspepsia
and nothing else. Set the disordered
stomach right with the one medicine
which will surely do it. Shaker Diges-
tive Cordial, and these symptoms will
vanish with their cause. A good effect
will follow the first doses, Even chronic
cases soon yield.
Test the Cordial, ait practically no
cost, by taking a ten cents trial bot
tie. For sale by nearly all druggists.

majority Of 10000 would have been re-
garded as a good victory.
at appears from returns so far as
received that we have double that, hav-
ing NJ gains in nearly every coun-
tv. Ens,der the results as assuring
Mr.. Bryan a majority Of not less than
GO.OO0 or 10000 in November. 1t shows
that the people are with us in the fight
and they cannot be diverted by any
subordinate issues whether of local
or National interest.
Il am more than confident that Mr..
Bryan will not only carry every South
ern State, but also every State West
of the Mississippi river as well as a
large majority of the Central Western
States, insuring him an oyerwhelm-
ing majority in the electoral college.

Washington, Oct. 8.-Replying to an
inquiry from the Atlanta Journal as
to his opinion of the result of the
Georgia election, Senator Butler to-
day sent the following telegram:
at is almost certain that a majority
Of the white votes of Georgia was cast
for the Peoples party State ticket. This
is a great gain over the party's last
vote, and is due to the personal popu-
larity of Tom Watson in his own State,
and to the desire of the people to re-
bulle the management of the Demo
cratic party in the State affairs of
Georgia. Evidently the Democratic
party is indebted to the negro vote for
what ever kind of victory they have
won.
''The outlook for Bryan and free sill
YER is much better than it was ten days
ago. The reaction against the schemes
and methods Of the Republican party
has already set in and will grow i'm
force until the day Of the election
This proves the impOieucy Of a Doodle
campaign when the people are aroused
on a great and vital issue. The pre-
sent indications show two hundred
and thirty-two electoral votes reason
able certain for Bryan with at least
an equal chance for seventy-fye more.

Senator Faulkner, of the Democratic

CRISP'S ELECTION ASSURED.
Atlanta, Ga, Oct. 8.-Advices receiv-
ed by the Journal to midnight from
combined official and unofficial sources
fix the total Democratic majority at
36,129. This estimate is based upon
the vote for Atkinson for Governor,
which is in many cases less than that
cast for the other State officials. 1t
is not believed that the final returns
will materially alter this estimate. The
legislature is almost solidly Demo
cratic in both branches insuring prac-
tically the unanimous election of ex-
Speaker Crisp to the Senate to succeed
Senator Gordon. Two constitutional
amendments were voted on and both
were carried overwhelmingly.

THE GRANDEST REMEDY.

Mr.. r. b. Greeve, merchant, of Chill
howie, Va, certifies that he had cou-
sumption, was given up to lie, sought
all medical treatment that money
could procure, tried all cough rene
dies he could hear of, but got no relief;
spent many nights sitting up in a
chair; was induced to try DR.. Kings
New Discovery, and was cured by use
of two bottles. For past three years
has been attending to business, and
says DIR. Kings New Discovery is the
greatest remedy ever made, as it has,
done so much for him, and also for
others in his community. DR.. Kings
New Discovery is guaranteed for
Coughs, Colds, and Consumption. It
don't fail. Trial bottles free at John
Y. McRae's drug store.

TRYING TO BUY THE HOUSE OF
REPRESENTATIVES,.

A well known National banker IN the
Fourth Congressional district has re-
ceived a letter from a corresponding
banker in New York asking whether a
"sound money candidate was run
ming for Congress in the Fourth dis
trict. This New York banker, who
represents twenty million dollars, went
on to say that the banking interests
realized that the only chance of defeat
ing free silver was in electing hostile
House of Representatives, and added
that if some strong "sound money
man would make the campaign in the
Fourth district he would be furnished
with ample money.
The significance of this letter is in
the virtual admission that Mr.. Bryan
would be elected President, and the
only hope of the gold men is in win
ming the House of Representatives, the
Senate being already for silver by a
majority of ten.
In view of the desperate efforts being
made to carry the House for gold, it
behooves every earnest advocate of sill
yer to renew his exertions to elect
nine silver men to Congress from
North Carolina. Any less representa-
ton will misrepresent the sentiment
of the voters in the State, and no eff
fort ought to be spared by silver men
to send a silver Senator and nine sill
yer congressman to Washington this
winter 1t will be remembered that
it was three Republicans elected to
Congress from North Carolina in 1888
that enabled the Republicans to or
ganize the Reed Congress, to throw out
many honestly elected Democratic
members, to pass the Mckinley "bill
of denominations" which converted an
| OVERLOOKING Treasury into a deficit, to
pass the Lodge Force bill, to appro-
pirate billion dollars for expenses of
government and wholesale exteava-
gance, and to give the power of Gar
into the hands of one autocratic man.
We are still suffering from the evil
| legislation and extravaganza of that
session of Congress. viii history re-
peat itself? viii the people of North
Carolina, long suffering from the evils
of the gold standard, permit the desir-
ed free silver legislation to fail be-
cause it allows three or four gold men
to slip into Congress on account of
differences between the advocates of
free coinage? Are the benefcent re-
suits of better financial legislation to
be denied the people? Is the money of
the New York bankers and Mark Han
ma to buy three or four districts in
North Carolina, and thus fasten the
gold standard upon the people of the
State? The danger is imminent. The
letter of the New York banker, coupled
with other incidents of the same kind,
ought to stimulate real silver men to
renewed zeal.

WHY THE RAILROAD MEN WILL
VOTE FOR BRYAN.

Early in the campaign great fear
was manifested because some of the
high officials in certain railroads were
announcing it to be their purpose to
support Mckinley, and to influence all
railroad employees to do likewise. Fol-
lowing upon the heels of this announce
ment came the speeches and appeals
from big officials, with many quiet
methods of persuaion and coercion.
The only argument made to the rail-
road men was that under free coinage
the dollar would not buy as much and
the wage-earner would be injured.
This argument has had little or no
effect, for the employees know that it
is to their unions and labor organiza-
tions that they owe their power to
keep up wages. They know also THAT
during the financial pressure, caused
by the gold standard, on many roads
there has been a cut in their wages,
sometimes of ten or twenty per cent.
These men know that Mr.. Bryan stands
as the friend and champion of organ
lied labor; that he is against govern
ment by injunction by means of which
labor has been coerced and forced;
that he is in favor of compulsory arbi-
tration; and that when he was in Con-
gress he supported the bill which pro-
yided for the use of improved couplers
on all trains engaged in Interstate
commerce. The necessity for such a
measure was furnished by the fact that
over 1000 lives had been destroyed
in this country by reason of the old
bungling methods, and that common
humanity required the discontinuance
of these death traps. 1t was urged as
a ground of objection to the measure
by some who opposed it in open debate
that these improved couplers would
cost at the rate of SIS car, aggre-
eating the enormous sum of $75,000,-
900. Because of such a vast expendi-
ture it was urged that the bill should
be defeated.
of that bill, Mr.. Bryan said;
II ask, Mr.. Speaker, how can we
measure the value of human life?
Now can you say that S75,000,000
expended in equipping cars out
weighs 1000 people killed and 49,
600 manned? We may talk this
way about the lives of others, but
what if these were our sons or
brothers? ask of any one of these
gentlemen what price he would set
upon the life or security of a rela-
tive? And how dare we hold at
trifing price the lives and welfare
of those not kin to us, while we
hold as a priceless boon the lives
and welfare of those to whom we
are related by blood?
81 appeal, Mr. Speaker, to those
who are in favor of this bill to
stand by our rights here as ma
