PROGRESSIVE CITIES.


 1t is a matter for astonishment as well as qualification generally to note the very unusual efforts that are be- ginning to be put forth by the cities of the. south to hasten their progress and improvement and multiply their pros perfty in this new year of 1896. The movement is observed in Charleston, Savannah, Jacksonville, Mobile. Mem phis and New Orleans to an unusual extent.
 The objects are varied-here it is more favorable freight rates; there it is: greater hotel facilities, or the erec- tion of large auditoriums; in some in- stances the improvement of the streets and drainage; in others the reaching out after factory plants, or more more wholesale trade, but in every ir- stance it is the determination to push the city further along the path of pro gress and prosperity in 1896. Prob ably at no previous time in the history of the south was this spirit so notice able or so thoroughly in earnest, and the fruits are beginning in most cases to be counted already.
 ha of I +- has invariably been the patriotic ac- tion of the business men in generously sacrificing all personal aims in getting harmoniously together flor the public good-conscious however, at last, that the general good of all is the individ- ual prosperity of each.
 Nothing in the whole matter is so conspicuous, by the way, as the abso- lute desertion of natural advantages" as the chief dependence for growth and power. Natural advantages are merely mentioned as desirable aids when the new features and efforts have fairly begun to bear fruit Natural advantages have ceased long since to be- the chief drawing cards. It is pluck and effort that win in the build ing of cities in these days
 The example of these wideawake southern cities is commended to Phoe- nix Here we have the chance by unity of action and harmony of feel ing with our present splendid start to distance any or all of them But we can never do it by waiting like MT Micawber for something to turn up." The business men of Phoenix will have to get together and turn it up them selves. If they do not if they are con- tent to drag along in the old ruts, con- tent. to sit down with their present volume of business in a half finished town, they will soon find that Phoenix itself has been distanced and then will come the retrogade-for stagna- tion in the history of town means retrogression. Will the enlightened business sentiment of this city not see these things and begin to act before it is too late?

canoe, for it is well understood when the members of this house were elect ed that the majority were opposed to silver I do not state a secret when say that the influence of the adminis- tration was exerted in favor of the Republican candidates in favor of the gold standard and against Democratic candidates in favor of bimetallism.
 q am confident weashall very soon hear from the great industrial inter ests of christendom, now threatened as never before by the competition of the silver-using countries, especially the Asiatic countries, or what has been properly called The Asiatic Peril. This competition cannot be met by tariffs, and can only be overturned by a change in the monetary system that now is giving to Asiatic manufactur- CTS a bonus of such magnitude as to render competition with them on our part impossible"
 The Colorado senator herein pre- sents an explanation of the Republi- can tidal wive of last year, which, if true, is not very complimentary to either party. It means that not all the Republican corgressmen elected were successful because of change of sentiment on the part of the people, as has been fondly hoped and believed, but that they were able to count a ma jority because of Democratic votes in- fluenced by,Mr. Cleveland in the inter est of "sound money" Events which have transpired since, and are in fact now transpiring in Kentucky, leave little room for doubting the truth of the senator's charge.
 Does any one doubt that the inf1u- ence of the administration would be sufficient to secure the election of Blackburn in Kentucky? Instead, however, the Democrats at Washing ton prefer to take the chance of the election of an opposition senator rath- CT than see a member of their own party who is an advocate of silver
 win. If Senator Teller is correct in his view, some congressman may meet disappointment next fall when MT. Cleveland's influence will have lost it's potency.

The Morgan bond syndicate demand as right the allotment to them of the bonds which were defaulted by other successful bidders. MT Morgan says there is no question about it, and that Secretary Carlisle must de- eide in his favor and at the price bid for the bonds he did get. AS the sec retary reserved the right to reject any or all bids there is no sort of obligation imposed upon him to let Morgan have the bonds, which amount to something like s6,O00,0O0. If other bidders offer to take them in the case, it would seem that the government might well accept the offer.

THE PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH.

1t is said that Mrs. r. ID. Blacknall
will write the history of the Presbyte-
rian church of this city Though not
as old as Trinity and the First Bap-
fist church, the Presbyterian dates
back to the early days of Durham
and has an interesting history 1t has

bership that can count dollars by the
millions, supports a missionary in
foreign land and is supporting two inn
portant missions in Durham, one at the
Pearl cotton mill and the other at the
Commonwealth, yet it had its begin
nings, and it would be in
teresting doubtless to the pres
ent membership to read of
how few faithful men and women
in the by-gone days, with no place to
worship, gathered in the old Methodist
church to listen to the sainted DIR.
Lacy expound the gospel. Thus was
the foundation laid that has grown
into such wonderful and beautiful
proportions.

Digestion and Work.
How Sick People May. Save Their
Energy.

1t is as hard work for some people to di
gest their dinner as il is for II normal man
to walk ten miles.
"After dinner rest awhile This is an old
saying. 1t means that if after eating heavy
meal you try to do hard work you will ex-
haust all your energy. There will be none
left for your stomach. Your stomach needs
energy to work Just az your leg or arm does.
Sick people want energy. They seldom
have enough for their stomach Their iii
gestion is out of order and they want 10
know the reason. It's simple enough as we
have told it,
What they ought to do is to save their
stomachs from hard work until it is capa-
BILE of doing it, just as they rest their tired
backs by lying down.
This they can do by using artiflcially di.
gested food. Shaker Digestive Cordial con-
tains such food; not only this, but it is cap
able of digesting other foods in the stomach
Shaker Digestive Coz dial affords nourish-
ment and creates new energy as soon as it
is swallowed. Ordinary food first has to be
digested. Shaker Digestive Cordial while
creating new energy does not expend any.
1t gives the stomach no work to do. 1t will
make thin people fat. Sick people are nat.
urally thin. Getting thin is a sign of sick
ness. A person may be born thin and nat
urally remain SO. Sue a one is not neees
sarily sick. All druggists keep it and a 10
cent sample bottle may first be tried.
