In the words of the great novel
ist Opie Reed who is the "Americ-

popular living novelists in writ
ing for Carriers Monthly Mag

things, says ''Man is machine

have felt the benefits of it, and ]
honestly believe 1t to be the most
wonderful discovery of the age.
If my voice though limited in
range, may help the suffering it Is
my duty to lift it. Ny associates
know that I am firm believer in
Osteopathy, and they know that
[ have set down what | conceive
to be the truth. Every man not
wholly vicious, would like to aid
the suffering.
Within short time all pref
udice against Osteopathy will
have vanished.
Tn every state the new healing
discovery will be strongly rooted,
to thrive under the spread of in
telligence. 1t will never be fad
for that would be like decking
common sense with a ribbon, it
will be the recourse of the wise.
The man shut up in his Office will
find that he no longer suffers
from nerv BUSINESS, the victim of
overwork will learn that within
few minutes he can be freed
from WEAKNESS, and the farmer
will cease to exchange eggs for
patent medicine.
osTEoPATHY PERFECTLY REAsoNA-
BILE.
Health is the inheritance of
man, and should be jealousy
guarded. Without it the wealth of
Midas is but as dross while with
it a man is rich though he be a
beggar. This being granted, it
goes without saying that the
public should eagerly investigate
any new discovery that may be
made in the art of healing, and
Osteopathy if thus carefully
investigated will surely commend
itself to the average person.
While it's metho DDS are radical de-
partures from the principles which
have heretofore been accepted as
the basis of medical practice, If the
matter is only looked at without
prejudice, and the human body
be regarded as but complex
machine it will be seen at once
Osteopathy is perfectly reasonable
and rational.
A few striking sentences from
the great article by this famous
Author "The true Osteopath is a
great Anatomist a master ma
chanic of the human machine. "
"When in the future an estimative

Miss Verna Golden.


citizens are sure to be interested
in her. Many remember when
DIR. Golden and his young bride
came to our town some twenty
four years ago. Mrs. Golden is
herself musician and River Falls
friends are always glad of an
opportunity to hear her voice.
Not few have watched with
great interest the talented little
girl who was born here.
While a young child she play ed
upon the organ and then upon the
piano under the direction of her
mother. She was an apt pupil but
it was only when she took up the
violin in her thirteenth year that
she discovered in what line lay
her fondest hope. She was then
i'll Minneapolis and a gentleman
who seemed to realize her posi-
bilities offered her the use of his
instrument, a really fine one
which she has used until recently.
At that time she began to exercise
the firmness, perseverance and
patience which have since proven
so indomitable, for there was
much to interfere and plenty of
friends and relatives to discourage
an undertaking in which the
attainment of marked success
seemed so difficult.
In about year she became the
pupil of Professor Fritz Schlachter
of Minneapolis. After few
months work with him her pur-
pose took full possession of her.
To become a great violinist was
her one aim, for that she was will
ing to endure any amount OF toll
and sacrifice. 1t was not long
before Professor Schlachter pro-
nounced her ready to 60 abroad to
complete her work. She had
already played before the Mime
apolis public number of times
with much success.
To many the sacrifice demand
ed by Art seemed almost too great
when this young girl of only
eighteen was constrained to leave
her home and friends and GO al
alone across the ocean to land
where she knew not one soul
She was very much in earnest and
very brave and she had too a
beautiful faith which has often
been marvelously rewarded. He1
very first experience was remark
able. She went to Germany
to take lessons from Herr Hans
Slit, musical director Of the Con-
servatory of Leipzig, a man well
known both as composer and a
teacher of the violin. But it is
the practice of this noted teacher
to give histpersonal attention only
to the most advanced pupils.
However she went to him and
announced her desire to study
with him at once. With a man
ner which showed surprise and
gave not the least encouragement,
he ordered her to play. Summon
ing up all her courage she played
before this great man with the
result that she was accepted as his
pupil without any preparatory
work, a high compliment to her
previous training.
This gave. her courage and she
went to work with a will: but
she had come to a hard master.
What days of toll and what sleep
less nights she spent striving for a
word of commentator from one
who gave so grudgingly. A less
heroic pupil might have been

cational meetings in Raleigh during the
same week, viz: County Supervisors

This is evidence that the cause OF
education is one of the questions OF the
hour.
We hope that all of these meetings
will be well attended, that much good
may result from the mingling together
of the educational workers, that a closer
relation and greater interest III each
other may be felt, and that all may be
bound together in common inter; st

NO ROOM FOR REPUBLlCANlSM IN THE
SOUTH.

A Republican from Western North
Carolina makes the assertion that there
is not one Republican in 100 now who
does not favor letting the negro alone,
politically. Wait till 1900 and you will
see the old relations restored. The
North Carolina Republicans know that
they would always be defeated by more
than 100000 without the negro vote.
Though they are mad now and abuse
the negro, IN 1900 they will organize
him again if the legislature leaves the
suffrage question unchanged.
Here and there you hear Republicans
say that if the negro vote was eliminated
there would be a strong white Republi-
can party in North Carolina. 1t is
eliminated for all practical purposes in
every Southern State except Maryland,
Kentucky and North Carolina. Where is
the strong Republican party in Geor-
gia, Alabama, South Carolina, Mississ-
ippi or Florida? The last named State
has a large population Of rich Northern.
ers, most of whom are Republicans on
national political questions. Where Is
the strong white Republican party" in
that State? At the recent election out
of 100 members of the Legislature elect
ed, 100 are Democrats. Why is there
no strong white Republican party in the
South? In the first place, because the
great bulk of the Southern people 0p
pose Republican Federal policies. The
second reason is that the white people
of every Southern State have learned
from bitter experience that at any time
they divide the white scalawags rush in,
organize the negro vote, and bring ruin
on their State. 1t is this fact of immi-
nent danger that causes patriotic white
men who really believe in protection and
the gold standard, to stand true to the
ment in any Southern State. The South
ern Democrats who did not support Bry-
an in 1896 are sorry that they made
that mistake, and under the leadership
of Henry Watterson and the Louisville
Courier-Journal they declare that they
will live and die in the Democratic par
ty, submitting all matters Of difference
to 1.-THE arbitrament" of the conventions
of their party.

FRIDAY. ....... December 8, 1893.
NO NEED TO WORRY.

Some people are very much AFRAID that
Mr.. Bryan will fail to win in 1900 if the
Populists carry ont their intention of
holding their national convention early
and nominating him before the Demo
cratic convention is held
Mr.. Bryan is n Democrat. If forty
conventions were to meet and nomi-
nate him before the Democratic National
Convention assemblies the only effect it
would have would be to pay tribute to
great Democrat and to Democratic
principles. If the Silver Republicans
nominate Mr.. Bryan, that will not make
him Silver Republican. If the Popu-
lists. nominate him, that will not make
him q Populist. 1t will mean only that
these two parties, as yet unwilling to
call themselves Democrats, believe that
the Democratic party and its greatest
leader stand for the reforms that will
make for the betterment of the condition
of the masses of the people.
Mr.. Bryan will be nominated by the
Democratic National Convention as Il
Democrat and will accept the nomina-
ton as a Democrat. If other parties
nominate or endorse him, either before
or after the Democrats nominate him,
it will be gratifying to all Democrats
who desire to see the success of their
party.

Additional Testimony as to

Mrs. Joe Persons
4 RENE dy.
CURED THE CHILD.

About fifteen months ago some blood
impurity showed itself on my child, in
forms of sores on her arms and body. 1t
finally settled into n very large sore on
the leg. 1t covered the whole front of
the leg, and was deep. / kept her under
medical treatment for more than a year,
but it failed to do her any good.
then thought there is one medicine that
viii cure her, and | shall try it. So
/ bought four bottles of Mrs. Joe Per-
sons Remedy When she had taken a
bottle and n half the change was seen.
The old sores would IA. off and new
ones form, and it continued to do this
until she took the four bottles, and
then her leg was perfectly well and only
a Scar is left to mark the trouble. 1t is
the most wonderful blood medicine /
~ had in my house. l recommend it
to everybody / come in contact with.
Those that need any medicine cannot
speak strong enough for it. 1t is a won
derful medicine.

The Washington Post states thai
Linney is being 'groomed for chairman
of one of the contested elections commit
tees in the Fifty Sixth Congress" and
adds that the north Carolina contestees
will be likely to quail if the appointment
is made" There is neither occasion for
nor is there likely TO be any "quailing"
on the part OF the Democratic Congress
men-elect from this State. Mr.. Lin
ney's selection however would mean that
the committee over which he presides
would start out to deliberately ignore
justice and facts, and that the Republi-
can majority of the Fifty Sixth Congress
is prepared for return to that rabid
partisanship which has too often dis
graced the party in the past.

The Washington Post is ordinarily
All exceedingly clear-headed newspaper,
but by what process it arrives at the
conclusion that ITO disparage the Presi-
dent is equally to disparage the Gov
eminent and people of the United
States" is by no means manifest. So
far as we recall, this year has seen
the origin of the theory that the Federal
executive and the heads of departments
are to be held sacred from criticism
Mr.. Mckinley is not the American peo-
pie, and criticism of his policy is not
criticism of the American people, nor
is it disloyalty to American institutions.
There is no more reson why foreign
policy that does not commend itself to
the sense of the citizen should be borne
in silence than distasteful domestic
policy.

REFORMING THE RAILROAD COMMISSION.

4 bill has been introduced in the Geor-
gia Legislature to elect the Railroad Com
missioners by the people. The North
Carolina Legislature is pledged to that
reform 1t will therefore elect Railroad
Commissioners only till 1900 when the
people elect them.
And this Legislature will elect three
commissioners. The terms of all must
terminate. DR.. Abbott ought to be al
lowed to retire to his quiet home in
Pamilco. He has served the railroads
with fidelity, and has not done anything
that was adverse to their interests. It
may be that he will expect them TO fight
to keep him in receipt of HIS salary. The
people are tired of him, and the legisla-
tors will find Il way to elect three COM
missioners, men of ability and fairness,
who will be impartial judges, treating
the corporations and their patrons with
justice and fairness.

During the war with Spain 279 men
were killed in action, ], 423 were wound
ed, 2,086 died of disease IN camp while
10000 were treated in the hospital. Il
is thus seen that twenty men were
killed or disabled by disease 10 every man
killed or disabled in action. In the face
of these figures, the necessity is clear for
passing Suffers resolution for an lnyesti-

That there will be {. prodigious amount
of talk about the race troubles in the
South during this session of Congress is
evident. Already the presentation Of
resolutions and petitions has begun. So
far as is apparent however the walters
are not getting very much comfort
from the Republicans in either house,
whose support goes for anything. 1t
will afford belated bloody-shirters and
Southern renegades an opportunity for
good deal of frothy rant, and if Con
gress is wise it will let it go at that.

WHAT OTHERS SAY.
GAGE GIVES THE FACTS.


Springfield Republican.
The President and his Secretary of
the Treasury do not quite agree as to
the War Revenue act The President
says in his message that revenue legis-
lation passed by the present Congress
has increased the treasury's receipts to
the amount estimated by its authors"
but Secretary Gage says that the opera
tons of the war revenue act SHOW
quite clearly that the aggregate reve-
nue. to be derived therefrom will form
a smaller total than was estimated by
the more sanguine of its supporters"
And by all other supporters also, we
may add; for the general estimate ranged
from $150,000,000 to $175,000,000, while
the present indications, according to Sec
rotary Gage, points to yield of only
about $100,000,000.

Apropos of the talk about reducing the
representation in Congress Of those
Southern States that have restricted
suffrage, why is it that there has been
nothing said about applying the same
plan to Northern States that have
restricted suffrage?, Massachusetts and
Connecticut both have an educational
qualification of the ballot and thousands
of voters must necessarily be barred by
it, but nobody has taken the trouble to
suggest that the Congressional repre-
sentation of either be overhauled. 1t
would seem to be another case of North
Carolina and Illinois.

1t is legitimate to add that Demo
cratic disappointment is confined to such
States only as evaded the Chicago plat
form and undertook to 'placate the
party traitors of 1896" The election
of Democratic Governor in Minnesota
on national issues is evidence to this
fact and points out the road to sue
cess in 1900 In Massachusetts, the
stronghold of England's banking inter-
ests, the Democratic convention en-
dorsed unequivocally the Chicago plat
form and the result is "A gain of three
members of Congress. Other instances
might be cited, but it is enough to say
that the late elections emphasize the
strength of the national platform. The
