THE PEOPLE RULE
THAT INFAMOUS POLICE
COMMISSION BILL
That Maj Grant Sneaked Through
the Senate and Would Force
Upon the Good Citizens of
GOldsbOrO, Meets With an
Overwhelming Defeat The
Lease Bill Tabled.

The people rule Goldsboro.
The police commission bill was
overwhelmingly defeated and the
railroad lease bill was tabled in
the House of Representatives. at
Raleigh to-day.
This announcement will no
doubt be read with great satisfac-
ton by those of our citizens who
delight to see the will of the peo-
pie exercised in the administra-
ton of our municipal affairs and
who also will rejoice with exceed
ing great JOY that the venomous
author of the unjust measure has
failed in his dark design of over
throwing our city government and
subjecting our liberty-loving peo-
pie to the merciless dictates of a
partisan police commission,
Ever since the announcements
was made public and confirmed
that the vitup ouand viniero
dictive carpet>bagger who
styles himself as ''Majol" Grant,
had been elected to succeed him :
self in the State Senate, the d.
cent people of this city have an
ticipated that some such meas :
ure as the Police Commission
would be thrust upon them, in
order that he might crafty in
some degree the intense hatred
that he bears in his breast for
every citizen in Goldsboro that
holds different political opinions
from his own. Lust week when
the papers contained an account
of the Infamous bill in the Sens
ate and its passing before that
body, the worst that had been
feared from this deep-scheming
poll. ical trickster seemed about
to be realized. and from that
time up to the present, the pulse
of the populace has been uns
steady. But the ingenious con-
river of humiliating measures
for personal qualification has ut
terly failed in his base attempt
and the venomous spleen that he
would have vomited forth on the
good people of this city now re
turns with their Indignation on
his own head aud the gall and
bitterness of defeat is Gliding
his ambitious spirit and weighs
heavy on his turbulent soul.

Spring

Is the season for new life in nature,
new vigor in Jul physical systems.
AS the fresh sap carries life into the
trees, so our blood should give us
renewed strength and vigor. In
its impure state it cannot do this,
and the aid of Hoods Sarsaparilla
is imperatively needed.
It will purify, vitalize and enrich the
blood, and with this solid, correct
foundation, it will build up good
health, create a good appetite, tone
your stomach and digestive organs,
strengthen your nerve and over
come or prevent that tired feeling.

A MANS STEAM

Can be wasted. 1t is often thrown away
by foollshness. Nature made man a
great deal on the same principle that
man makes a steam engine. She supplies
him with steam TO work the vital puissa-
tions. The steam runs the heart. the
stomach. the nerves, the brain. keeps the
blood circulating and supplies him with
vital energy to feed these functio-s in
thcir daily use. But sometimes they are
overworked; the steam is exhausted. You
have to fire up. Nature does 1t with
electricity. Charge the system with "a
strong electric current, and soon the
power will begin to work again; the new
life will warm up the nerves and in a
few weeks everything is running smooth
ly; strength and manhood are on top.
