ANOTHER BROKEN BARGAIN
! THE EASTERN COLORED HOS
PITAL.

The New Board Met Here To day SUI
perintendent Elected: The Negro
Not In It-Except as an Inmate.
The new Gov-Russel-appointed
Board of Directors of the colored
insane asylum met in this city to-
day and organized in secret con-
clave by electing DR.. J. E. Per-
son chairman.
The session was a long and
doubtless a turbulant one, and re-
suited in the election of DR.. Alb.
Alexander, of Tyrrell county,
Superintendent. DR.. Alexander is
a Republican, a white man, IA
member of the late unlamented
legislature. Drs. Williams, COL,
of Charlotte, and j. d, Spicer and
j. E. Person, of this county, were
placed in nomination, and received
votes on the first and second bal
lots; but on the third ballot Dr..
Alexander won.
A resolution was then intro>
duced to the effect that the as
sistant physicians and other
officers OF the asylum should be
colored, men, whereupon a dis
cussion arose. and pending the
discussion a resolution to adjourn
which is always in order-was
carried, and the meeting ''broke
up" subject to the call of chair
man Person at some future day.
Aud this is what the colored
brother gets out Of the promises
Of pie for his votes in the late
election and in the Legislature.
But it was ever thus.

We all know that any tired muscle
can be restored by rest. Your stomach
is a muscle. Dyspepsia IS its manner
of saying 81 am tired. Give me rest. .
To rest the stomach yeu must do its
work outside of the body.
THIS is the Shakers method OF cur.
ling Indigestion, and its success is best
attested by the fact that these people
are practically free from what is with.
out doubt the most prevalent of dis
leases. The Shaker Digestive Cordial
not only contains digested food which
is properly absorbed without taxing
the tired digestive organs. but it is
likewise an aid to the digestion of other
floods in the stomach. A 10 cent trial
bottle will convince you of its merit
and these you can obtain through al
druggists.

WASHINGTON. D. G., Jan. 2O.-I
cannot resist the impulse to say q
word of commentator of the inau.
gural address Of Governor Ellerbe
1t is most excellent in style and the
tone and temper and matter of it is
above criticism
OF course do not agree with him
in his endorsement Of the dispensary.
That institution is, in my opinion,
radically and fundamentally wrong in
principle. and indefensible in prac.
tee, but Governor EIerbe discusses
it with the fairness and frankness of
patriotic conviction and therefore
will command the respect and conf
dence Of those who do not agree
with him
The address of Governor Ellerbe
is in most refreshing contrast with the
screeds that have been Eliminated by
his immediate predecessors, and the
good people Of the State are certainly
to be congratulated on the improve
ment in their chief executive officer,
and the harbinger Of decent, digni-
fed admir-. :stration, whic'! the recent
