Jim Crow Cars.
Winston Sentinel.

We think it is safe to say that
the Legislature will make provi>
sion for separate accommodations
for white and colored people on
railroads. Some favor for each
and every train two frstsclass
coaches, one for white and one
for colored, and two second class
coaches, with the same proyi-
sions. We understand that the
Railroad Companies object to
this. upon the ground of the ex-
pense of almost doubling their
trains without increase in the
number of passengers, Rather
than do this, we learn that they
are willing to abolish the second
class fare Of p cents per mile
and reduce the first class fare
from 81 cents to cents, and
carry two first class coaches, one
for whites and one for colored.
This would be an average reduc-
ton in fair Of one quarter cent
per mile. The matter. no doubt,
will be thoroughly considered by
the Legislature and the demand
of public sentiment for separate
cars be complied with by the res
presentatiyes.

Do Not Give Up in De-
spair-There is Hope!

For ages it has been thought
that Cancer is incurable, and
those SO unfortunate as to have
this dreadful affection have con-
sidered themselves beyond hope of
recovery. The doctors are alb
solutely unable to afford any re-
lief, and the poor sufferer might

to an early grave.
1t is now easy to see why the
doctors have failed to cure Cancer.
Their theories have been all wrong,
and hence their treatment mis-
directed. They have made the
mistake of thinking that by cut
ting out the sore or ulcer, known
as Cancer, the disease would be
gotten rid of, and the patient re-
stored to health. But the cruel
knife accomplishes nothing, fol
the Cancer promptly returns ,and is
always more virulent than before
1t has been demonstrated, beyond
doubt, that Cancer is blood disease
and can not be cured by the surgeons

Perhaps Best, After ALI,
Charlotte Observer.

The Durham Morning Herald
observes that the fact of his hav
ing sold out his business to a
trust may militate against the
senatorial aspirations of Col.
Julian S. Carr, if he has any. The
Winston Seetinel says that while
the necessity for such action is
to be regretted, the formation of
the new combination to fight the
American Tobacco Company may
result in general benefit by cre-
ating competition in buying sup
plies. The Observer does not
know how the business Of the
Blackwell Durham Tobacco
Company has prospered of late.
but everybody knows at what
fearful disadvantages individual
competition stands out against a
trust and our Winston contem-
pOrary truly says that SIT seems
that the only way open for sue
cessful combat with the giant
tobacco trust Is thorough Coop
Grafton on the part Of those op-
posed to it," That appears to be
the common sense view of the
case. The American Tobacco
Company has for some time been
after Col. Carr's scalp, and we
would much prefer to see him go
into a new trust than to be broks
en- Or absorbed by the old one,
Two trusts are better than one,
and the formation of a new one
is subject for general congrat-
ulation. Perhaps the men who
raise the tobacco will now have a
living chance, and if it is to be
a life and death struggle between
them, may the younger one win.

TWO Pointed Questions Answered..

What is the use of making a better
article than your competitor If you
cannot get better price for it?
Ans:-As there is no difference in
the price the public will buy only the
better, SO that while our profits may be
smaller on single sale they will be
much greater in the aggregate.
How can you get the public to know
your make is the best?
If both articles are brought prOmi-
nently before the public both are cer-
tain to be tried and the public will
very quickly. pass judgment on them
ard use only the better one.
This explains the large sale of Cham
berlain's Cough Remedy. The people

THE PRESIDENT CHEERED.
sour Country" the Toast to
Which the President Res
spOnded at the BANQUET.

Atlanta, Dec. 15.-The presi-
Dental party left shortly after
midnight for other points in
their Southern itinerary, leaving
a hoarse-throated multitude be>
hind them.
At to nights banquet Presi.
dent Mckinley responding to the
toast, "Our Country" referred
feelingly to the cordiality with
which Georgians had always
greeted him, even in the days OF
heated tariff controversy. In the
four years that had expired since
his last visit a foreign war had
been fought for the freedom OF
our neighbors, bringing new
problems to the American people
whose solution may prove diff
cult.
"United.' he continued, "we'll
meet and solve them with honor
to ourselves and lasting benefit
to all concerned. The war brought
US together. it's settlement will
keep US together.
Reunited, glorious realiza-
tlon. 1t expresses the long de-
ferred consummation of my
hearts desire. At peace with al
the world and each other, what
can stand in the pathway of our
progress and prosperity"
All the Presidents references
to good will between the North
and South were wildly cheered.
Clark Howell, who presided al
the banquet, sprung surprise
by reading resolutions, passed
unanimously by the Legislature
this afternoon, which brought
the diners to their feet, cheering
wildly. The resolutions recorded
the Legislatures high apprecia.
tion of the chaste, eloquent and
statesmanlike address delivered
in the presence of the Genera
Assembly yesterday by the
president" They declared that
President Mckinley, by his ready
recognition of Southern ability
and Southern worth, shown in
military appointments. had en-
deared himself to the country.
"The Legislature desires
especially to commend and ap'
plaud the generous, soldierly
suggestions made by His Ex'
cellency, that every soldiers
grave made during the civil wal
is a tribute to American valor
and that the time has come wher
the government should share ths
care of the graves of Confederate
soldiers.
''These words do credit to the
heart and head of the distingu
ished citizen who uttered them,
man who has proved himself t.
be the chief executive of the en-
tire nation, capable on great oc
casions of rising high aboy
party and sectional lines."

APPROACH OF CHRISTMAS.
A Look Before and After as to the In
huence of What the Coming Day
Commemorate

NOmmemO OrateS-
Just three days now and we will
stand upon the eve of the glad
feast of Christmas.
A great many wise gentlemen
have been interesting themselves
of late in what they call the study
of comparative reli gious and the
evolution of Christianity Their
idea is that religion is not based
upon any knowledge communicat
ed by God to man but upon man s
Imagination of God, or his con-
ception of what God should be,
and as such conception naturally
changes with the intellectual ad
vance of civilization, religion is
simply the expression of the spir-
itual ideas and aspirations of a
particular race at a particular
time.
In this way, they tell US, various
religions have been invented, in
different ages, each equally respect
able in its time but naturally sue
ceeded by something better.
Christianity, they admit, is-or
was-an Improvement upon most
ether ffee11iigions, but it is subject
like the rest to the general law of
evolution, and having served its
purpose in the world it is now Civ
ing place to religion more pure
ly ethical. And while we are list
ening to these wise gentlemen we
come upon Christmas, and we find
the whole world with its attention
fixed, not upon any abstract con-
ception, but upon concrete fact,
Did it ever happen, can we
imagine it to happen, that the
birth of "a philosopher, a social
reformer, teacher of ethics,
was looked forward to for ages
and conmemorated, year by year,
for ages after, by all sorts and
conditions of men throughout
the world? 1t is not hard to trace
the development of mans ethical
standards through the whole
course of history, under the
Jewish as under the Christian
dispensatiop, ,and under divergent
faiths as well; and many grea
teachers have arisen in their time
to carry these standards forward
But underneath the ethical sys
tenn of Christianity lies no
merely an Intellectual appre
hensiop, but the conviction of
tthing which has come to pass
the thing long promised and ex
pected, and recognized as readil,
by the shepherds on the hills O
Judea as by the wise men fror
the East. Unto US a Child i
born, unto us Son is given.
Not to a chosen race alone bu
''unto all mankind. who thus ar
brought into one universal broth
erhooG.
This is why Christmas Da
outlasts all the arguments of th
philosophers and the objection
of the critics, whether higher c
lower. Whether or not we indi
vidually accept the fact, it is o
the belief in the fact of th
Divine Birth and it's effect apo
the world that all our tradition
of Christmas rest and the spir
of this holy day, broadening OF
from age to age, spreads ovt
the earth the eternal message {
faith and love, of peace and goo
will.
