TONSILlTIS
CAN BE CURED BY USING
Mrs. Joe Persons Remedy.

For long time my son was troubled
with some bronchial trouble which every
time he took cold. settled in his throat
and produced something like tonsilitis.
The tonsils would enlarge and swell 30
that he had great trouble to swallow any
thing, and could take no solid food. Last
spring he took half dozen bottles Of
Mrs. Joe Persons Remedy, and gargled
his throat with the Wash, and it cured
him. He has never had a spell since.

WHY THEY MARRIED
Especial to the Sunday WORLDLY

whose noble President so well illustrates
the perfect type of American manhood.
We have had conflicts, but they are over,
and as l looked upon the happy throng
which gathered about me to-day, throng
the music of whose voices was buoyant
with hope for the future, / felt that as
long as there is marrying and giving in
marriage, the mirage of division and
disaster will be left in the rear, and We
young men who are in the procession will
move onward to the tune of progress and
development.
ACKNOWLEDGE TO GOV.
ATKINSON.
/ cannot close this Acknowledgement
of the Worlds kind wishes without pay
ing tribute to the gallant young Govern
or of Georgia and his charming wife, who
SO generously made the Executive Man
sion the refuge of my now wife, when
she sought it's shelter in that hour so
important in a woman's life. Though
of excellent family and surroundings,
Mrs Longstreet found herself compelled
TO provide for herself during her days
of girlhood 1t is tribute to the man
hood of Georgia that this girl found such
staunch friends, and that they recognized
her capacity for official preferment. Gov.
Atkinson was her friend in those days,
and for that reason | must be his here
after. Signed.

Free Cure For Men.
A MICHIGAN MAN OFFERS TO
SEND HIS DISCOVERY FREE.
Claims to be a Benefactor to Weakened
Mankind.

Claims to be Benefactor to Weakened
Mankind.
There Is always more or less suspicion
attached to anything that is offered free
but sometimes q man so overfiows with
generosity that he cannot rest until his
discovery Is known to the world, in order
that his fellow men may profit by what
he has discovered. 1t is upon this princi-
pie that a resident of Kalamazoo, Mich,
desires to send free to mankind q pre-
scription which will cure them of any
form OF nervous debility; relieves them of
all the doubt and uncertainty which such
men are peculiarly liable to and restores
the organs to natural size and vigor. AS
1t costs nothing to try the experiment it
would seem that any man, suffering with
the nervous troubles that usually attack
men who never stopped to realize what
might be the final result, ought to be
deeply interested in a remedy which will
restore them to health, strength and
vigor. without which they continue to
live an existence Of untold misery. As
the remedy in question was the result OF
many years research as to what comb!-
nation would be peculiarly effective in
restoring 10 men the strength they need,
1t would seem that all men suffering with
any form Of nervous weakness ought to
write for such remedy at once. A re-
quest to III. @. Oids, Box 1922, Kala-
mazoo, Michigan, stating that you are
not sending for the prescription out Of
idle curiosity, but that you wish to make
use of the medicine by giving it a trial,
will be answered promptly and without
evidence as to where information came
from.
The prescription is sent free, and al
though some may wonder how Mr.. Odds
cap afford to give away his discovery.
there is no doubt about the offer being
genuine. Cut this out and send to Mr.
Odds that he may know how you came to
write him.

The political pendulum continues
to swing strongly toward the side
of the Democracy as is shown by
the result of the special Congress
sional election held in Chicago last
Tuesday. The Republican candi-
date in populous district managed
to pull through by the small plurali-
ty of 800 votes, as against a plura-
lily of nearly 1000 cast for the can
didate of the same party; in the
Congressional election held one year
ago. The election of Boutelle BY.
such narrow margin in a district
which has been largely Republican
is regarded by the Democrats as
defeat for their oppon-
ents, and they claim that if they
make similar gains in other districts
next year Illinois will go Demo-
cratic by a large majority.-Daily

effort Of the combination formed
to promote this purpose will be per-
mitted for moment to obscure the
real issue. If you are white man
and believe in the control of the
government by the white race then
your proper place is in the Demo-
cratic ranks. If you believe in ne
gro supremacy and debauched poll
tics then you should take your
stand under the black flag unfurled
at Monroe by the corrupt coterie
of political buccaneers who propose
to barter away the liberties of white
men. On this point there is no
neutral ground.-Baton Rouge Ad-
vocate.

The Populists of North Louisi-
ana held largely attended meeting
at Monroe on the 18th inst, to
nominate delegates at large and the
probability is that they will form a
coalition with the Republicans
and put out a.joint ticket. If this
is done..there will be music in the
air, and no mistake.-Plaouem
Journal.
Yes. brother, there will proba bly,
be some Emusic in the ale" emanat-
ing from these advocates of black
and tan supremacy. But the music
will be after the election and it will
be set to the tune :'of the Dead
March in Saul as the s'coalition"
craft proceeds ON its gloomy voyage
up Salt River. The white men of
this State know how to handle

negro sovereignty and

Chicago society has been shocked
by the marriage of Jessie Lincoln,
daughter of Col. Robt. Lincoln;
and granddaughter of Abe Lincoln,
to young baseball player named
Warren Wallace Beckwith. Col.
Lincon, who is now president Of
the Pullman Car Company will not
admit Beckwith to his house, and it
is said there is much'lsorrow in the
Lincoln family. In the meantime
the young bride is living with her
husband at the home of her grand
father, at Mount Pleasant, Iowa,
and she will probably remain there
until her proud parents relent and
forgive.-Dally States.

In this fight for a constitutions al
convention there will be only two
parties in the field. The Populists
have combined with the Republi-
cans and have put out a hybrid
ticket the chief plank in the plat
form of which is negro suffrage.
Every white man knows that ne
gro suffrage has been the cause of
all the political woes that have
ever assalled this State, and that
his presence as a factor in our poll
tics is constant menace to good
government, and to the pea ce and
order of society. Those white men
who stand for good government
know full we'll that such a consum-
nation can never be obtained
through the medium of negro suf-
frage. They knowwhat it cost to
the vandals who plum
dered the State from 1868 to 1877.
md they know that the den of
thieves which was routed at that
time was installed by means of the
negro vote. The fight is nov

Iberville South.
The Populists Of Louisiana have
come out openly in favor of negro
suffrage as the following plank in
their recently adopted platform will
show:
eve declare that every man
|twenty-one years old, and of the ne
cessary residence, who discharges
all the duties of citizenship, includ-
the payment of poll tax, shall have
the right of suffrage in Louisiana;
that such poll tax should be devoted
exclusively to the public school
funds, and the poll tax receipt cons
titute the voters registration paper.
''We favor the adoption of an
Australian ballot system which will
dIsfranchlse no one, but shall effect
naliy preserve the secrecy of the
ballot"
Every honest and sincere man
realizes the danger that m enaces the
State as long as the elective fran
chise remains in the hands of the
negro, but no one expected an ex-
preston from the demagogic leaders
Of the Populists in framing a plat
torm upon which their Constitu-
ional delegates would fall. The
masses of the Pops, we believe, are
,onest, but their leaders in this
state are about as corrupt set of
'ushwhacking political buccaneers

al stage, and as they had the writ

Of MARYLAND, every democratic Sen.
ator sis now lined up against the
annexation of Hayaii, and the op-
position among the republicans al
ready includes Senators Hoar. Nor
rill and Pettigrew. This makes it
impossible to procure the two-thirds
vote needed to ratify the treaty pro-
'lding for annexation, and the re-
publicans are already seriously
thinking of abandoning the treaty
and trying to secure annexation by
majority legislation. It looks a
little as though the annexation
question was going to be used by
the Reed machine to whack McKin-
ley over the head. The Car is un-
derstood to have privately announ-
ced himself to be opposed to annex
alton. In fact, praaent indications
are that before this session has
grown very old, the llne between
Mckinley republicans and Reed re-
publicans will be sharply drawn,
If Spain isn't entirely pleased

President of the United States to de-
vote nearly half Of his message to
Congress to an argument in favor
of allowing a foreign nation more
time in which to try to squeeze the
life out of a people residing in sight
of our coast, and the innovation
was nauseous to many. A dose
equally nauseous followed, when
Secretary Gage presented several
columns of solid newspaper matter,
giving in detail the extraordinary
enorts OF this country to aid Spain
by suppressing filibustering. SEN
ator Allen offered resolution in the
