FIGHT MUST GO ON.
absolute Faith L.. the Final Triumph
of the Right -


Theo. F. Klutz in Electoral College.
With no repinings for defeat, but
with absolute faith in God and
humanity, with absolute faith in the
capacity of this people for self-gov
eminent, and therefore absolute
faith In the final triumph of the
right, let us grid up our loins and
unity our forces, not only for the
next great national contest, but also
for those nearer and minor contests,
which must be fought and won as it's
necessary preliminaries.
| stand now where | stood at
Chicago, where l stood during the
campaign, and where the Democratic
party stands and must stand, un-
equivocally and without apology
upon every plank, every principle,
every demand of the Chicago plat
form.
The fight must go OIL till thu free
and unlimited coinage OF both gold
and silver, at their traditional,
historic, and legislative ratio of six
teen to one, is an accomplished fact;
till life tenure in office, except as
fixed by the Constitution, Is abol-
i,hed; till executive autocracy and
usurpation is effectually curbe6; till
government by Injunction shall give
place to the orderly processes of the
law; till bond issues in time of peace
shall cease; till just income tax
shall once more be placed on the
statute books and effectuated by the
courts; till all exclusive banking
privileges shall be abrogated; till the
great lawless trusts, monopolies and
combines of this country shall be
throttled by the law; till all unjust
discrimination, by law, against the
masses and in favor of the class, 8
shall be obliterated; till this is once
again government of the people,
by the people, and for the people"
These are basic principles and
policies and for these We shall con
tinue to fight till God shall give US
the victory.

Accountable
Catarph.

It Is not reasonable to expect to be
cured of any disease, no matter how
constant and persevering the treat
ment, when that treatment is alto
gether 1nisdirected, and can not posi-
bly, reach the trouble.
This explains why those afflicted
with catarrh meet with so much dis
enlargement, Though they faithfully
take the usual treatment consisting of
sprays, washes, ETC., and pass through
the summer without much discomfort,
az soon as cold weather returns, they
find themselves more firmly in the grip
of the disease than ever. Such results
could hardly be expected if the proper
treatment had been given.
Any one who has had experience
with catarrh will readily admit that it
is one of the most obstinate of diseases;
it is easy to see, therefore, that it is
deep-seated, and that no remedy which
merely reaches the surface can have
the slightest effect upon it. The only
known cure for catarrh is a real blood
remedy, one which gets at the seat of
the disease-the cause of the trouble
and forces it from the system. Such a
remedy is S. S. S. (Swift's Specifc).

Reformatory work in Alabama.

The Alabama delegation to the
recent convention of the Southern
Educational Association at Mobile
adopted the following resolution ::
"We reco ME reformatory work as
legitimate branch OF education,
and we strongly and unqualifie1ly
indorse the efforts being made for the
establishment and maintenance of a
State re:ormatory The Mobile
Register, commenting upon this,
says: 1.-THE need of a reformatory is
not doubted. The good results
obtained from reformatories in other
States should convince our legisla-
tors of the Importance of establish
ing reformatory in this State"
And it adds: ,"A duty of the State is
to-educate all of it's children. Much
more pressing is the duty to rescue
from vice those who are SO unfor-
tunately placed as to be unable to
rescue themselves

GOLD DEMOCRATS,
Invited to CAST Their Lot With the
Republican Party.

Republican Party.
Raleigh Tribune.
But the mistake our gold standard
Democratic friends make is in decid-
ing TO continue the fight on the lines
laid down at Indianapolis in Septem
Der. A party that could poll only 2
per cent. of the voting strength of all
the people calling themselves Demo
Gratis has no excuse for existence,
when there is a large, respectable and
successful party that represents the
essential views for which it commended
at the late election.
The Republican party offers a
place OF refuge-a home for the wan
de:ers from the Democratic fold.
They stand In their own light, and In
the way of the best interests of the
country, by maintaining an organi-
cation and keeping up a fight for a
cause in which they can accomplish
nothing alone.
The door OF the Republican party
is open, and a hearty welcome awaits
them.
Let them come In.

Mr.. II. P. Cook, of % Walker street,
Atlanta, Ga, suffered intensely from
catarrh. He says:
Il at first thought I had only bad
cold, and didn't give much atten-
ton to the distractions i'll my nose
and throat. This soon became notice
able, and began to SO inconvenience
me, that applied for treatment and
was given the usual local applications
ofsprays, washes, etc. The immediate
effect of the treatment was to relieve
me, but only for short time after ap-
p1ication, and 1 could easily see that
the disease was growing worse stead
lily, and seemed to grow deeper toward
my lungs; my nose and throat were
constantly choked up, so that l was
all the time hawking and splitting, and
to add to it all, the disease became
very offensive. I was unable to obtain
much sleep, being compelled to get up
constantly during the night to clear
my throat and keep from choking. o
81 tried various treatments without
relief, as none of the medicines seemed
to reach the disease. Finally, some
one recommended S. s. s., and before
had finished one bottle, felt better.
l continued the medicine, and it cured
me permanently. truly believe SIS. S.
is the only cure for Cdtarrh, the most
abominable of all diseases"
S. S. S. is unlike all other blood
remedies, because it is more than q
mere tonic, and goes directly to the
seat of all blood diseases, and cures the
most aggravated cases of Cancer, Ca
tarrh, Rheunl ltisnI, Eczema, Scrofu1a,
Contagious Blood Poison, etc. S. S. s..

MANY SLAIN OR HURT.
Fourth Of July Fireworks Do Their
Usual Bloody Work.

Tho thrac-duy observance of the ma

ence day for the American small boy.
He began on Saturday, continued inter
mittent!y on Sunday. and made as much
as possible Of his fast waning opportunity
on Monday. He put torpedoes Oh the car
tracks and shot off punches of firccra ckers
under boxes and old tin cans for the first
two DAVIS. Monday he touched Off cannon
crackers, fred pistols and discharged
miniature bombs at the risk of life and
limb and property. The strain of forty
eight hours excitement and noise had it's
effect upon the juvenile, however and the
Jelaycd Fourth" it is said, was quieter
throughout the country than such occa-
sons have been for years past. The cas-
ualties of the day were not as numerous
as in previous years. In Chlcago only
thirty-five alarms were received during
the day. fewer than ever before record
ed, the number last year being consldera-
bly, oyer 100. Five persons were killed,
four others seriously injured and num-
Der of others slightly hurt. The prema-
ture explosion of Il bottle filled with gun
powder toused one fatality. Another vie

youth in celebration of the day. One boy
in his fright fell from window on ac-
count Of the firing Of u cannon cracker
and was killed. The accidental explosion
of fireworks cost the life of one man. and
the bursting of Il toy cannon ended the
earthly career of 12-ycar-old boy.
Fatal accidents elsewhere were also
comparatively few. The minor casualties
covered a wide range Of cases. but were
principally due TO the careless use Of large
firecra nkers, which in many eases intlict-

small boy was not always to blame in the
matter. as much Of the recklessness was
manifested by his elders.
