FOURTEEN TRAITORS.

The readers of this paper know that
we have never expected the Democrats
to elect a Senator from Kentucky.
With the control of the House of Rep
resentativcs, the Republicans will turn
out the two Democratic members
whose seats are contested if all their
other plans miscarry. Besides, the
populist member who declared on the
stump that if elected he would vote for
Joe Blackburn has been necessary ut
MI times to Democratic success. The
nomination Of Mr., Blackburn by the
Democratic caucus puts it in the power
of the Populist to carry out his pledge
and elect Mr.. Blackburn, provided the
Democrats will come together and give
him unanimous support. Many believe
that the Populists have already traded
with Republicans, and will vote in
such way MS will secure the election
of Republican Senator. But fourteen

was ascertained that Blackburn would
receive the nomination. These four
teen traitors to their party thus help
the Republicans succeed and enable
the Populists and Republicans to con
summate their bargain.

in 1925 ought TO have cemented Demo

NOTABLE AND coMMENDABLE

The Atlanta Constitution, in its sun
day morning issue, states four facts
in reference to the Atlanta Exposition
that will make every Southern man
proud of his section, and crafty ev-
cry true American heart. The success
of the Exposition, wonderful III what
ever aspect considered, is all the more
wonderful and valuable in the light OF
the Constitutions four features:
/. We made our big show a brilliant
success without the attraction OF
horse-racing.
2. No gambling or betting IN any
shape was permitted.
3. We did not have to violate the Sab
bath in order To draw crowds.
4. We kept the liquor traffic strictly
regulated, closing the saloons at 10
o'clock, and allowing no wine, spirits
or beer to be sold on Sunday.
Under these strict regulations the
exposition was largely patronized, and
was pronounced a success by the lead
ing newspapers and most eminent men
Of the country.
These facts carry their own common
tary with them, and we defy ali the ex.
positions in history to show a better
record!

OUR TWO PIGMIES.

Mr.. Hill cannot understand how it
is that Butler and Pritchard, the one
advocating almost free trade and the
other fayoring Mckinley rates can
stand in the same party and be elected
by the same constituency.
If he lived in North Carolina nc
600 negro votes behind them, as they
think solid. regardless of what they
advocate. The NOW you see it; now
you don't programme of North Car
olina's Senators is for Butler to catch
all he can in the low tariff net, and for
Pritchard TO fish with high tariff net,
and by combining all the catches, Sc
cure enough votes to win upon.
Principle? Convictions? Consis-
tency? These are natural questions
in ordinary States. They have no
place in the morals or vocabulary of
fusion. Born in deception, nursed in
the cradle OF falsehood, and trained in
the school ofithe demagogue, the Flu
sionist is neither fish nor fowl, IL ey-
ervthing by turns and nothing long.
The pity of it is that this good Old
State, full of brave men and gracious
women. should have TO bear the stigma
of sending two pigmies and second
class demagognes to represent her IN

ARBITRATION is TIE REMEDY.

Public opinion in all civilized coun-
tries is growing toward arbitration of
all international disputes. The prop
osition for the establishment of per-
this country and Great Britain has
been well received on both sides of
the ocean.
Under the title ~ Way Out" Har-
per's Weekly suggests plan for the
amieable adjustment of the present
difficulty. 1t points out that Lord Sal
isbury refused to submit the boundary
dispute in its entirety to arbitration,
and, with later developments it will be
embarrassing for him TO recede alb
solutely from that position. On the
other hand, President Cleveland i'm
sisted that the dispute should be ar
bitrated i'm its entirety, from which
position it will be humiliating for him
to recede. The suggestion made is
that England appoint five men 10 act

dent to be mutually agreeable, to form
a board of inquiry or a board of con
moniously adjusted that way. Sails
bury, it is argued could eBterinto snch
a plan without humiliation because
he would not be submitting the entire
dispute to arbitration and President
Cleveland would he satisfied, on the
other hand, because the matter would
he investigated in it's entirety. While
the finding of such Il board would not
have the binding effect Of decision
by arbiters, il would carry great NOR

Spelling FOR A FIGHT
St. John Says There IsyNo Reason the Sea
board Should Not Return TO the -.
Cut Rates. <.

Portsmouth, Va, Sept. 1.--Vice Presi-
dent st. John of the Seaboard Air Line
today, in the course of an interview on
the subject of Judge Simonton's recent
decision dissolving the temporary in
junction against the Seaboard Air Line,
said there was no reason. why the Sea-
board should not return to rates in eff
feet previous to the issuance of the re-
straining order. Referring to intima-
lions that the Southern States Freight
association is preparing a tariff on the
basis of a so per cent reduction to Sea-
board competitive points, ignoring the
long and short haul clause of the inter-
state commerce law, Mr.. ST. John eX-
pressed the belief that the interstate
commerce commission will enforce in it's
own way law which demands that no
higher rates shall be made for a shorter
than for a longer haul, and that the Sea-
board would obey this feature of the law
in tariffs to be issued as in the past
1.-The present disturbances in rates."
said Mr.. ST. John, result from the
SouthernS effort to destroy our reve-
nues and business, after which the re-
suits likely to be followed may be easily
imagined. We shall defend our property
and our rights from an intended quiet
and subtle attack from whatever source
it may come, and we will continue to
oppose to the millions of their bankers
the sturdy, unwavering loyalty of the
merchants, shippers, farmers manufac-
turers, producers and the good people
of all the territory tributary to our line,
in whose interest the conflict Is Waged, as
well as our own"

At $50 the committee reassembled and
promptly determined to proceed to dis
pose of the contests from Morgan ana
Colbert, which were still pending. On
motion the contest from Morgan was
dismissed and the committee then re-
tired to private room to make up their
verdict on the Colbert case ana prepare
their formal report.
While the committee was out making
I'D the temporary roll for the conYen-
ton a spirit of compromise again seized
upon the contestants and q NUMBER OF
their respective leaders. The PROPOSE
ton, as submitted by Mr.. Almon Tor Gen
eral Wheeler was talked over and agree
ment reached. Following is the agree
ment in substance:
Wheeler and Richardson each to choose
three democrats in Colbert county, ana
the six men to select the seventh man,
provided they can agree by september D
on him. If they fail to agree by that
date, then the central committee of Col
bert county is to make the selection; the
election to b. held on September 26;
ma ority of the popular vote to decide the
question, and the one receiving it to be
the nominee; Judge Richardson and Cen
eral Wheeler to canvass the county joint
ly. This agreement was reduced to writ
ing and the candidates signed it. Thus
thu storm blew over. A spring shower in
the shape of genuine democratic feast
took the place of the threatened tornado.
The rock-ribbed, unterrified and invinci-
bic democracy of the Eighth goes forth
harmonious and united A nomination
will be made and no sores left to heal.
At rs the committee concluded its
1abors begun thirty hours before and
read it's report. The committee admitted
to seats in the convention the regular
delegates from each county except Col
bert and as a report on the Colbert con-
test the committee recommended that
the agreement signed by Wheeler and
Richardson be adopted by the conven-
ton.
The committee recommended Mr.. G.
p. Jones for temporary chairman. A
motion that the name of DR.. l.. Fl.
Grubbs be substituted for temporary
chairman was offered and Mr.. Jones
withdrew his name. Dr. Grubbs was
elected. Mr.. Whitman of Madison was
elected temporary secretary.
On motion the temporary organization
was made permanent. The agreement
made by Wheeler and Richardson was
Endorsed by the convention. A new ex-
ecutive committee was selected.
A resolution indorsing the Chicago
platform and nominees was passed amid
much laughter.
The failure to seat the Colbert delega-
ton put the Richardson men in control
of the convention.
At 10 o'clock the convention adjourned

Which Cured Him After Everything Else

Painful diseases are bad enough, but
when man is slowly wasting away with
nervous weakness the mental forebod-

mental suffering day or night. Sleep Is
almost impossible and under such
strain men are scarcely responsible for
what they do. For years the writer

sexual weakness, until it was question
whether he had not better take a dose of
poison and thus end all his troubles. But

IN the shape of q combination of medi-
cines that not only completely restored

weakened manhood who would be cured
at once could they but get such a remedy
as the one that cured me. Send me your
name and address today. Do not try to
study out how l can afford to pay the
few postage stamps necessary to mail the

and learn that there are few things on
earth that, although they cost nothing
to get, they are worth a fortune to some
men, and mean a lifetime of happiness to
