Schism Is Dead and the Democratic Party Is
United to Maintain White Supremacy.


To the State Herald:
AS an old democrat let me say that

Johnston" the comments of the two
great Alabama papers, the State Herald
and the Advertiser, on the result at the
primaries made my heart pulse with
new life and animating hope for the sue
cess of our great party in the August
election Both told Enthusiastically that
schism was dead and that the factions
would marshal under the old banner and
fight again as ever for the glorious SUI
premacy of the white race in the great
state of Alabama. No mongrel outside
organization must ever be permitted to
rule in Alabama. Absenteeism in gov

spirit out of any people who have been
cursed with its baleful domination. Wit

Country Doctor.

n Tragic Leaf from the Experience Of a
Country Doctor.
A countrydoctor's life is not overlaid with
elder down nor eternally ~sprinkled with
fresh rose leaves, says the Pittsburgh Dis
patch.
a few weeks ago DR.. Blank was sum-
moned at midnight to a house that stands
some distance from any other, in a rural
district near this city. A stable hand had
been kicked by a horse and lay in a critical
condition. The doctor flung on his clothes,
jumped into a buggy anddrove as fast as he
could through a rain-storm over heavy
roads to the house where the injured man
lay. lie had never been to the house
before, but he had heard of its owners
prediction for savage dogs, and he was
not surprised therefore when he drove up
TO the door to hear baying and barking in
several keys within the house.
After considerable knocking a woman
came to the door and opened it about an
inch to inform the doctor that he'd have to
be very careful about entering, for she
could hardly keep back the dogs.
The doctor is a plucky man, and he re-
sisted the strong desire he felt to get back
into his buggy. The door was opened
enough for him to slide through, and he en-
tered adimly-lighted hall. In front of him
were arrayed two large mastiffs, a bulldog
and a greyhound, and between him and
them stood the woman who had let him in.
She was the housekeeper, and she carried
IN one a a lamp and in the other a thick
cudgel.
As he entered the hall all the dogs
plunged for him simultaneously, but the
~nodsekceper laid about her with the club
Il the animals reiterated, bowling savage
y. He went upstairs at once to the room
where his patient lay, and the housekeeper
fought with the dogs all the way up, but
succeeded in protecting the doctor.
Coming down afterWard, the housekeeper
had the same difficulty with the dogs, and,
rs the doctor sprang into the carriage, the
bulldog made a rush for him and planted
his teeth in the Doctors trousers. The
garments were luckily of cheap and poor
material, and the leg which was in the dogs
mouth gave way.
The doctor was glad to get off so cheaply,
n the bulldog, he thinks, was disgusted
at his investment in an inferior grade of
cloth.
And the best Of it is that the operation he
performed at the risk Of being torn to pieces
by q pack Of hounds will never bring o cent
to the doctor. The misery owner of the
dogs simply declines to pay, though the doc,
tor was called by his orders.

pledged their troth in December 1s69
The young lady's, aunt, however,
threatened to "cut her off with a shil-

sequently, the loving couple had to
forego their most ardent wish, viz: the
prospect Of a speedy marriage. Still,
they remained true to their pledge dur
