Workers in the wide, uneXplored field of
modern chemistry are daily astounding the
world with new wonders. Professor and
layman vie with each other in their COM
mendable efforts to lessen the ills of human
ity. Yesterday it was Pasteur and Kock,
and today it is Slocum, with n new diScov-
cry which is the result of years of careful
study and research.
Foremost among the worlds greatest
chemists stands Il. A. Slocum, of New York
City. His researches and experiments,
patiently carried on for wears, have finally
| eliminated in results which are proving as
| beneficial to humanity as the discoveries of
| any chemist, ancient or modern His efforts
| which for years had been directed toward
| the discovery of Il positive cure for con-
sumption, were finally successful, and al
ready his new scientific system of medi-
cine" has by its timely use, permanently
cured thousands of apparently hopeless
cases, and it seems necessary and humane
duty to bring such facts to the attention of
| all invaids.
The medical profession throughout
America and Europe are almost unamious

consumption. The afflicted die in the

The Doctor has proved the dreaded dis
ease to be durable beyond a doubt, in any

and European laboratories thousands of
letters of heartfelt gratitude from those

No one having, or threatened with. any
disease, should hesitate day, but should

has discovered a reliable and absolute cure
for Consumption CTuberculosis) and all
bronchial, throat, lung and chest troubles,
stubborn coughs, catarrhal affections, scrof-
ula, general decline and weakness, loss of
flesh, and all wasting conditions, and to

RACE RIOTS-THE SOLUTION.

The accounts from Tirden, Illinois.
reveal a bad state Of affairs and all
through the selfshness and greed Of
the owners Of the mines. They i'm
port from the south cheap convict Ia
bor-fellOws who have worn the stripe
shirts-and the result is a bloody riot.
There are seven White men who have
been destroyed by the avariciousness
of the owners, and their killing lies
at their door. Gov. Tanner acts like
a ma of judgment with humane in
stincts, while the sheriff of the county
takes the proper stand that he will
resign his office before he will enforce
the law against the white miners and
allow negro convicts to take their
places. The race question will not
down any where. The best solution of
it is depOrtatiOn-tO send the last Sam
DO and the race out of the United
States. Bishop Turner, a negro Meth
odist preacher, has long favored col
o%nization in Africa. He is pressing his
plan, and good citizens must hope that
he can so impress his people and the
public generally that the scheme will
be practically worked out. Portions of
Africa are rich, healthy and well
watered, and would offer good homes
for the African in our country. By
the way, Poultney BigelOW's recent
work on South Africa is illustrated,
and the negroes in the pictures, taken
from life, are exactly i those in Will
mington to be seen by hundreds every
day on the streets. In q dozen or
twenty years the English have about
civilized the Africans as much as our
Sanbos appear to be who were born
here.

BREN;TAES.

Ex-Judge Thomas NJ. Cooley, Il Of
the foremost American jurists and au-
thor of a great work on The COnsti-
tutional Legislations which Rest Upon
the Legislative Power Of the States Of
the American UniOn," died at Ann
HarbOr, Michigan, on the 18th Septem-
Der last. He was a native of New
York state.
Georgia will hereafter elect its
judges by a popular vote. We hope it
will not fail as egregiously as North
Carolina has failed in the unfortunate
experiment.
American pensions go in great piles
to Europe. That part of the world
was a recruiting ground for the United
States. The south fought with six or
seven million whites. the north's $780,
900 and Europe thrown in. We learn
the American consul at Zurich, Switz-
erland, has some eighteen or twenty
Swiss to look after in the matter Of
pensions. He tells of one robust
mountaineer who ONES in regularly
and receives his $50 per quarter, or
s22 per month.
A very striking lesson may be found
in the following showing how a high
radical tariff robber works. The n.
Y. Tribune, rep, shows that under the
high and heavier tax on wooden manu-
f%actures, with a tax also on wool, the
manufacturers abroad are increasing
their shipments, and our manufacture
ers are closing their works and dis
charging their hands. This is ''protec-
ton with a vengeance. Northern
carpet mills are closing, and on worst
ed goods about double the importations
are made now against the lower tariff
of 1896.

1t is no pleasure to populists to

POPILISTS COnING BACK
Significant 1~tterancP> of the Leading
POpuIi>t Newspaper in the South
(Atlanta JOurnal.)

tAIIdnIa JOuIIalt
Augusta. October 11.-That which is
the most talked about in politics is
the editorial which appeared in The
Augusta Evening Tribune of yester-
day. The Tribune is the leading pop
ulist paper in the sOUth-in fact the
only pOpulist daily paper in the coun-
troy.
Taking for its cue an editorial in The
Atlanta Journal, The Tribune K
up the suggestion that the popullsts
60 back into the democratic fold n
comes as close to giving such advice
as could be. l quote this significant
editorial at length, inasmuch as it is
regarded as the voice of populism, at
least in Georgia.
The Journal" says The Tribune,
heartily endorses the suggestion that
pOpulistS disposed to return to the olC
marty be treated with the utmost lib
crafty" The Journal says: we have
always conceded the integrity of their
motives. though we have thought their
Judgment was bad when they left the
democratic party to build up a new
one, and the event has confirmed TINS
opinion. They We're a power IN the
democratic party while they remained
in its ranks, but they threw away their
trengt when they left If. We invite
them back. and we know that the IN
yitation will be cordially seconded by
the masses of the democratic party,
which is and has been and Will con-
tinue to be what its name implies, the
real peoples party. We may still Cl1ter
on some points. as the members OF eV-
ery party differ. but we submit to our
popuIist friends hat in the southern
states the integrity Of our civillza-
ton is at stake. and the issue develop
ed in North Carolina by the odious ef-
fects of fusion is the gravest that mas
been raised there in years. The same
issue has appeared in the Eleventh dis
trict of Georgia, but the popullsts OF
this state are against fusion. and the
failure of tina attempt to profit by ar
raging brother against brother with
the aid Of an inferior race is fore
doomed to failure. It is needless TO
point out the fact that h negro race
has not yet reached the statue OF cit
izenship. and when the white race dl-
yide the result is d temptation Which
tends to the Generalization OF Dotn
races. Facts which prove this are too
many and too obvious to require specf-
fcation. II is a condition n not a
theory which confronts US. The popu-
lists will find work as we'll as z well
come in the old party. Their position
in favor OF ballot reform and economi-
cal administration Of government
agrees with that Of the masses OF the
OernOcTdIlc party. AS pidStlSdL ~

ton which has been in good faith eX-
tended"

Mr.. B. E. Taylor "a travelling man."
tells the Washington Post, after much
travel lately in the south and particu-
larly all over North Carolina that "the
eastern part of the state is filling up
with negroes, nos of whom have
focked to North Carolina from Geor-
gia and South Carolina, where the ed
ucational restrictions debar them
from a great many things that they
ear have and get in North Carolina
The populists of the state, consisting
mostly of disgruntled democrats and
carpet-baggers, have catered to this
class of negroes to such an extent
that they are now becoming a serious
problem"
