THE EXCELLENCE OF SYRUP OF FIGS

THE EXCELLENCE OF SYRUP OF FIGS
is due not only to the originality and
simplicity of the combination, but also
to the care and skill with which it is
manufactured by scientific processes
known to the CALIFORNIA FIG SYRUP
Co. only, and we wish to impress upon
all the Importance of purchasing the
true and original remedy. AS the
genuine Syrup of Figs is manufactured
by the CALIFORNIA FIG SYRUP Co.
only, a knowledge of that fact will
assist one in avoiding the worthless
limitations manufactured by other par
ties. The high standing of the CALI
FoRNIA FIG SYRUP Co. with the medi-
cal profession, and the satisfaction
which the genuine Syrup of Figs has
given to millions of families, makes
the name of the Company guaranty
of the excellence of its remedy. It is
far in advance of all other laxatives,
as it acts on the kidneys, liver and
bowels without irritating or weaken
ing them, and it does not grippe nor
nauseate. In order to get its beneficial
effects, please remember the name of
the Company

NO AGITATORS-NO RIOTS.
Atlanta, Ga, November q
10 the Editor of the Journal:
Education alone will never correct
the evils that eliminate in race riots
at elections. For a generation the
people of the South have taxed them
selves enormously to educate the ne
groes, and in most instances it is, as
in the case Of the North Carolina
negro editor, an educated negro who
is primarily responsible for race
riots.
Legislation alone can prevent such
occurrences. The hallot-box must
be more closely guarded The fran
chise must be taken from the venal
and corrupt.
Virtue and intelligence alone must
WELD the ballot. Suppress agitators,
white and black, by effective lecisla-
ton, and race riots at the polls will
be thing Of the past.

When the Federal Government
ceases to select the South as the
peculiar and exclusive field for the
appointment of negro officials and
refrains from intermeddling in our
domestic affairs, and the people of
the North shall come to the con-
clusion that we are entirely capable
of legislating for ourselves, and
desire only their sympathy and as
sistance in making better citizens of
negroes, we shall have little diff
Guilty in solving the race problem.

SUPERIOR RACE BOUND TO RULE.
Olympia, Wash, November 21st.
To the Editor of the Journal:
You ask me what is the solution of
the race problem in the South Is
it education or a matter of legisla-
ton? In reply, allow me to say that
neither education nor the Legislature
in South Carolina can repeal law of
nature when inferior and superior
races are brought together. The
superior must rule, and will rule.

radical and prompt action. The out
break was not unexpected and the jail
was heavily guarded. The provost
guard in the city was also doubled, and
things are now quiet at midnight. 1t
is believed that the prompt measures
that were taken have prevented what
promised to be a very serious affair.
There is more excitement in Lexing-
ton tonight than at any time since the
troops were brought here. When the
7:30 Louisville & Nashville train started
to town from Camp Hamilton, a crowd
of 300 members of the Twelfth New
York. regiment was at the depot to
board it. They were armed and were
coming to town to try to get Alvin
Kitchen from Jail and shoot him.
Kitchen is the provost guard who shot
and instantly killed Private Henry Dy-
gren, company B, Twelfth New York,
last night. The operator at the station
wired to the division headquarters in
the camp the facts, and General Wiley
wired back, instructing the train to be
held. He sent a battalion to the scene
of the trouble. under Captain Holbrook,
adjutant general ca General Wade's
staff. Captain Holtrook ordered all
peaceful soldiers to return to the camp.
A corporal spoke up and said:
''All who do are cowards."
Captain Holbrook asked him to what
regiment he belonged, and he answered.
''The Big Four" Captain Holbrook told
him that was no way to speak to an
officer. The soldier made some reply
and Holbrook grasped him by the arm.
The soldier tore himself away, leaving
his coat sleeve in the captains hand,
and, drawing a gun, shot at Holbrook.
The bullet missed the captain. The
corporal then climbed under a car.
Lieutenant Langden followed him and

arrested. There is not soldier in town

tonight ordered his men not to shoot
unless compelled to, but when thew
did. to take aim to kill.
Officers say Kitchen will unouestion-

he shot Dygren he was under orders
not to have even his gun loaded. 1t

of the mob. The matter will be thor

DoTsoN RENoMINATED.
Democrats of Beaver County Put Up
a Strong Ticket.
(Special 10 NE Herald.'


Beaver, Oct. 1O.-The Democratic
county convention was held here today
and was characterized by a great deal
of enthusiasm throughout. Hon. r. R.
Tanner, the Democratic candidate for
state senator for the Eleventh district,
was made chairman and opened with a
rousing speech for Democracy. Miss
Effie Mathews was elected secretary.
The platform adopted endorsed the
Chicago platform, and the platform
and nominees of the late state conven-
ton of the Democratic party.
The convention then proceeded to
nominate a ticket which is as follows:
For representative to the legislature,
Hon. w. L. II. Dotson of MinersVille;
for county commissioners, DR.. G.. H.
Fennemore of Beaver, James Bigler OF
Milford and Henry Osborn of Frisco;
for clerk, n. p. Epson of Beaver, pres
ent assessor and treasurer; for assessor,
MILFORD Robinson of Beaver City; for
treasurer, William NJ. Low of Beaver;
for sheriff. John II. Barton of Green
vile, the present incumbent; for attor-
ney, DE-. ]. Ward Christian, present in
cumbent; for recorder, Miss Effie Math-
ews of Beaver City; for surveyor, ]. F.
Tolton of Beaver City. j. f. Tolton was
also elected county chairman.
About one-half of the nominations
were made by acclamation,. and i'll no
case did it require a second ballot. The
convention was quite harmonious all
the way through, and the members and
the people generally feel confident that
they have nominated a very strong
ticket and one that will carry the votes
at the coming election.

tsneeiaI TO The herald,


Nephi, Oct. 10.-B. H. Roberts ar
was met at the depot by q large num-
Der Of prominent citizens and several
: OF the local candidates. He had scarce
~ arrived at his hotel when delega-
ton from Levan put in an appearance
and insisted On his accompanying them
to their town and making a speech
there during the afternoon.
After q hurried lunch, the delegation,
together with several of the county
candidates, started for Levan, where a
rousing reception was given Mr.. Rob-
erts, he being the first really live con-
gressional candidate who has so far
visited their thriving little city.
Mr.. Roberts had only time to shake
off the desert dust after his 16-mile
ride, and eat hasty supper, when the
committee here waited upon him to
escort him to the tabernacle, where he
found the spacious building already
filed with an eXpectant assemblage,
and the band keeping the crowd in
good humor
After being introduced by Chairman
Carter of the precinct Democratic COM
mittee, Mr.. Roberts began an earnest
and eloquent review of the position of
the two great parties on the financial
question. He showed by facts and fig
ures that the Democratic party was
the party that was in favor of the peo-
pies money, gold and silver. He read
numerous extracts from official publica-
tons, showing that the course OF the
Republican party for the past quarter
OF century favored the single stand
ard, or gold, as the money of the peo-
pie and that the policy of the Repub-
llcan party had tended to make the
rich richer and the poor poorer, and
naturally fostered trusts and unlawful
combinations to both rGb ana enslaVe
the people He showed conclusively
that the rise and TALL in the price of
silver carried with it the price of
wheat, the great cereal staple, except
in case where failure of crops and fam
inc caused an unnatural demand. He
showed conclusively that the battle cry
of the Republican party of free silver,
reciprocity and protection" was an
tagoniStic, inconsistent and nothing
short Of q delusion and n snare TO eaten
votes. He showed by statistics that
protection did not protest either lead,
wool or sugar, and gave the exact fig
ureS, showing that the extent to which
these three great industries were af-
1ected in Utah was but bagatelle
compared to the immense loss through
the decentralization OF silver by The Re
publican party.
Throughout his entire speech, which
was q, masterpiece in eloquence, pathos

with the closest attention by the large
audience, fully half % whom were
women. After the close of the meeting
the speaker received the congratula-
lions OF many former Republicans and
was literally applauded. The sledge-
hammer blows showered upon the de-
Inora!ized Republicans tonight will
have telling effect. They realize their
chance of success is hopeless
The entire Democratic state and
county ticket in this county bids fair
TO be elected by the largest majority
ever received by either party at any
previous election.

GERONIMO ON THE WAR.
Old Apache Chief Says the indians
Are Making a Mistake.

Omaha, Oct 10-'The Minnesota IN
dams will see that they have made
great mistake in going on the war
path" says Geronimo, the famous
Apache chief, who is one of the Indians
now in camp at the Indian congress.
Il have never been in Minnesota, bat
1 hear that up there, and for hundreds
of miles beyond, the white men are
as many as the blades of grass. II
that is so, what can a few poor In
dians do in fight? They are making
a great mistake and are fools. For
years l fought the white men, thinking
that with my few braves l could Kill
them all, and that we would again have
the land that our great father gave US
and which he covered with game. L
thought that the great spirit would be
with US, and that after we had killed
the white men, the buffalo, deer and
antelope would come back. After l
fought and lost, and after l Travelled
over the country in which the white
man lives and saw his cities and the
work that he had DONE my heart was
ready to burst. knew that the race
of Indians were done"
Asked what he thought would event
ually become of the Indians, Geronimo
hesitated and pointed to the west and
awhile, and then it goes down, sinking
out of sight, and it is lost. So it will
be with the Indians.
When l was boy my father told
me that the Indians were as many as
the leaves on the trees, and that off
in the north they had many horses and
fields. never saw them, but l knew
that If they were there, then they have
gone now, and the white man has TAX
en- all they had, 1t will be only a few
years more until the Indians will be
heard of no more, except in the books
that the White man has written. They
are not the people that the great faith
er loves, for if they were he would
protect them. They have tried to
please him, but they do not know how.
Schools are good things for In
dams, but it takes many years to
change the nature of the Indian. If an
Indian boy goes to school and learns
to be like a white boy, he comes back

ROBERTS AT LEVAN.
Immense Audience Listened to His
Mastery Address.
Especial to The Herald,

Levan, Oct. 10.-The air was sur
charged with political enthusiasm since
early morning. when the news was
given out that Hon. 3. II. Roberts and
Fisher Harris would eXpound Demo-
cratic doctrines here this afternoon, al
though the time was brief, before noon
IL is safe to say, it was lxnowle by every
inhabitaut from one end of the town
to the other that the blacksmith ora
tor and the idol Of the young Democ-
racy, would honor our town with their
presence. Shortly before o'clock a
caValcade was seen approaching in the
distance and soon drew up at the taber-
nacle, where a great gathering had al
ready assembled. 1t was something of
d disappointment to learn that Hon
Fisher Harris had not come, for he has
many warm personal friends here, but
the welcome was not less warm and
spontaneous for the congressional nom
inee, who was received with cheer upon
cheer.
After the preliminaries Mr. Roberts
was introduced and for an hour and a
half he eloquently reviewed the ffnan-
cial question, he showed logically and
conclusively that it was to the interest
OF all classes, the farmer, the wage
worker, both the producer and the con-
sumner, that this country should adopt
the bimetailic standard, and that the
only hope for free silver and prosperity
was through the great Democratic
party, the party of the common people,
the party that is at war with trusts
and the money power. During his en-
tire address he was attentively listened
to by those present, which composed
the greater part of the adult population
of the town, and his strong and elo-
qUent sentences were literally cheered.
