NOT THE ENEMY OF THE NEGRO.

In its fight for good government and
white government the Democratic party
is not the enemy of the negro. Who so
charges wilfully misrepresents it. The
present corrupt regime plumbers black
and white 1t exalts the negro politician
that it may get the vote of the negro
masses. 1t is not the friend of the ne
gro. The average negro is better Off I'M
der Democratic rule than he is under
fusion misrule. He is deceived and made
to vote against his own best interests.
The men who would save him from him
self are his friends, not his enemies. 1t
is necessary for the good OF the whole
State that the white man shall control
and govern, but in his proper place the
Democratic party stands, us it always
has stood, both individually and as an
organization to extend helping hand
to the negro. The Democratic party
does not give offices to so-called negro
leaders, but it does encourage and help
ali negroes to make the most of them
selves. The best friend the negro ever
had is the Democrat

DANGER IN SODA.
Serious Results Sometimes Follow Its
Excessive Use.

Common soda is all right IN its place
and Indispensable in the kitchen and for
cooking and washing purposes, but i was
never intended for a medicine, AMI peo-
pie who use it as such will some day
regret it.
We refer to the common use OF soda to
relieve heartburn or sour stomach. n
habit which thousands of people practice
almost daily. and one which is fraught
with danger; moreover the soda only
gives temporary relief and in tile end the
stomach trouble gets worse and worse.
The soda acts as n mechanical irntant
to the walls of the stomach and bowels
and cases are on record where II ac-
cumulated in the intestines, causing
death by inflammation or peritonltls.
DR.. Hhrlandson recommends as the
safest and surest cure for sour stomach
(acid dyspepsia an eXcellenr preparation
sold by druggists under the name Of
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets. These tab
let's are large 20-grain lozenges, very
vleascant to taste and contain the natu-
raj acids, peptones and digestive ele-
ments essential to good digestion, and
when taken after meals they digest the
food perfectly and promptly before 1t has
time to ferment, sour and poison the
Flood and nervous system.
DR. Wuerth states that he invariably
uses Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets IN all
cases of stomach deragements and finds
them a certain cure not only for sour
stomach. but by promptly digesting the
food they create II healthy appetite, in
crease flesh and strengthen the action
of the heart and liver. They are not n
cathartic. but intended only for stom-
ach diseases and weakness and will be
found reliable in any stomach trouble
except cancer of the stomach.
All druggists sell Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets mt soc per package.

A CRITICAL Time
During the Battle of
Santiago.
SICK OR WELL. A RUSH
NIGHT AND DAY.

The Packers at the Battle of Santiago
de Cuba were all Heroes Their
Heroic Efforts in Gettirg Ammunition
and Eaiions to the Front Saved the
DAY
"a II. Il. Butler. OF pack-train No. 3,
writing from Santiago de Cuba on July
23rd, says: 1--WE all had diarrhOea in
more or less violent form, and when we
landed we had no time to see a doctor,
for it was case of rush and rush
night and day to keep the troops sup
piled with ammunition and rations. but
thanks to Chamberlain's Collie, Cholera
and DiarrhOea Remedy, we were able
to keep at work and keep our health;
in fact, | sincerely believe that ut one
critical time this medicine was the in
direct saviour of our army, for if the
packers had been unable to work there
would have been no way of getting
supplies to the front There were no
roads that a wagon train could use. My
comrade and myself had the good for
tune to lay in ii supply of this medicine
for our pack-train before we left Tam
pa, and l knoV in four cases it absolute
~ saved life.'

Issues make themselves. 1t is so in
this campaign. 1t is noticeable that the
Re-pop-licans have attempted by lying
and distortion to conceal the main issue:
W atever the bushwhackers may be do
s. there has been no open denial of
the shameful condition brought about
i'll Eastern Carolina by few years flu
sien misrule. The negro is in the saddle.
Even the gall of the fusion politician is
not great enough to deny it. Hence the
confuson in his councils and his desper
ate but futile attempts to show that he
has been following Democratic prece-
dent.

THE SCALAWAG AND THE CONFEDERATE
SOLDIER.

The Confederate soldier has played
,out-George Tonnoffski.
If the above were the sentiment alone
of the man who ticks the boots of boot
lcks. OF the creature who crawls and
creeps that he may remain the under
ling of men who proclaim themselves
the servants of the negro, for pelf, it
would be dismissed without notice. But
talk of his masters. He at once voiced
their true sentiments and suggested Il
contrast fruitful of things deserving to
be noted.
The masters were unfortunate in the
time chosen by the scurvy underling t.
repeat abroad what they had said among
themselves. The time is still fresh in
the minds of all when a reunited country
joined in praise of the Confederate sol
der, and former enemies honored them
selves in honoring him. A such time
the negro fusionists of North Carolina
envious of aught that has earned for it
self the privilege of walking upright and
looking the world in the face, played
alone the role of traducers of the Con-
federate soldier. They took away from
him his humble means or livelihood to
bestow the place on political heelers,
dismissing him with the contemptuous
fn hn &
played out Has the Confederate
soldier played out? Has the time arriv-
ed when the Old North State prefers
the scalawag and the blatherskite, po-
litical Uriah Keeps and mouthy promul-
gators of tommyrat to the Confederate
soldier?
All the world admits now, and admits
gladly, after more than thirty years of
misunderstanding, that in courage, in
tegrity, patriotism, devotion to duty,
the Confederate soldier is fit to be pedes-
tailed as an exemplar to mankind-ali
the world except the rapacious place
hunters of this State who tell him that
he has played out.
The Confederate soldier-the fusion
politician! If the people of the State
would know how we have lurched down
ward in statecraft in these sordid days
of deals and dickers let them make the
comparison. Let them compare the man
whom formerly the State was proud
and wont to call into her service, and
who never betrayed her trust with the
creatures who gloat over her disgrace
if they may but keep their filthy fingers
in the public treasury.
1t was only recently that the people
of North Carolina unveiled in this city
n monument to the Confederate soldier.
Was that an empty form, a hollow
mockery? Or do the people of North
Carolina believe that the Confederate
soldier deserves to be honored, cherished
and remembered alike for what he has
done and for what he is?
The blatherskiteeand scayawag tell US,
the Confederate soldier has played out.
But they honor nothing, reverence moth
ing, love nothing but themselves. The
men of North Carolina have yet to sane
ton this fitting sentiment of the seala-(
wag. Should they ever do so then the
State will indeed have fallen too low
for us TO hope for its redemption.
