strates this truth, that SO long as Anglo
Saxon blood feeds Anglo Saxon heart,
so ions; Will Anglo-SaXon intellect and
Anglo-SaXon Will dominate inferior
races We believe. however, that the
danger or negro rule now really exists
only in the distempered imusinations Of
political dcmagosues. No one can pro-
duce any array OF facts TO convince the
unbiased observer that the negro vote
will be any moro united in future cleo
tons than the white vote This race has
made wonderful strides In recent years,
and they have seized upon every oppor-
tunity to better their conditions They
have been given the best schools, col
legcs and universities and have not neg
lccted their advantages. Thelr moral
and intellectual Improvement has been
little less Than marvellous. 1t is unpre.
cedentcd in the history Of any people.
They are fast becoming qualified to act,
to think ana to vote for themselves.
The time has passed for them to ever
again consent to become the mere tools
of unscrupu!ous and designing Office
seekers. They carefully and conscien-
tiously study the issues which are in
Volvcd in every political canvass, and in
many instances thoroughly understand
them. Their leaders read political
economy. ana neither the tariff nor the
currency question Is a stranger to them.
THE property interests which are pos
Sesssed by this race in the South already
exceed twelve millions Of dollars. They
have mastered many trades, become
proficient in the Industrial arts, and
sometimes prominent iii the professions.
They need not now be told that their
welfare Is inseparable from the welfare
Of the South and the time will soon come

lost all of my immediate family, con-
sisting of father, mother, two broth
ers and two sisters, besides seven I'M
cles, nine aunts and several cousins,
who died with it, I was given up to
die myself. I met an old physician,
who prescribed for me- After TAX
ing one bottle of his medicine, my
cough stopped, and after taking
three bottles, was we'll. The testi-
mony of prominent physicians, min
listers of the gospel and business
men as to the truth of the above will
be furnished upon application. A
sample bottle of the medicine will be
sent to any address upon the recent

1t is a settled fact that the Escam-

the validity of the law passed by the
legislature which was intended to
abolish it. At a special meeting of the
board President Renshaw presented
an address in which he stated that he
had been legally advised that the act
was invalid, and that duty demanded
a reasonable resistance to all demands
of the state board for it's property. He
advised that meeting of citizens be
called, and if in their opinion the
board should resist the demands of
the state board, the same be done.
