The Washington Post, commenting
on the crowd that gathered at the diff
ferent places in Washington to hear
the election returns, has the following
about tar heels:
There was a sardonic tone to the
cheers, and perhaps in some individual
instances, jeers, that greeted occasional
bulletins from North Carolina. Of
course, nothing short of a unanimous
democratic victory was expected, for
the naivete afternoon dispatches to the
effect hat there was no intimidation
but very few negroes were voting had
impaired a grimly humorous aspect to
the situation.
Therefore. when one tall, gaunt son
Of the tar heel state shifted his quid
into n cheek and remarked pensively
that he 'reckoned it was a poor day for
black birds in NO'h CaroIiny' the
crOwed laughed cOmprehensively. One
sharp featured New England man be-
gan an argument on the universal
rights of suffrage, ETC., but the big
mountaineer shut him up with the
good natured retOrt: Look we're. you
all yankees don't let the Italians Por-
tygeese, and French-Canadians run
you. [ notice, an eff you was down in
Moth Caroliny you'd do jes the same
as we all; only you'd count EN- out
while we scare 'em out

race trouble it may be set Town as a
fact that mean white men are at the
back of it. The hand of the -Old-time
ca~rpet-bagger was plainly in evidence
in the recent troubles in Wilmington.
Once the moral support and
tenance of the northern people is with
drawn from this class, the race troubles
will cease, for the carpet-bagger is by
nature a coward and relies upon the
endorsement and support Of the north
ern press and politicians to back him
in his evil work of melting the negroes.
This northern sentiment is his only
source of courage in his work among
the negroes. Remove it, and his work
will come to an end. It is encouraging
to know hat the relations between the
southern white man and the negro are
becoming better understood, and there
is a growing tendency in the north to
consider the matter in the light of rea-
son. The negro has got to keep in his
place in the south as he would be re-
Quired to do in the north. He can no
more put his heel upon the neck of a
southern White man than he could
upon that Of a nOrtherner. In cOnSid-
ering these trouble with the negro, the
intelligent people of the north hre be-
ginning to ask themselves: What would
we do? Now that they have begun to
study the question from that stand
point. it will not be long until they will
cOncede the absolute truth of The Bal
timOre Suns proposition and will set
their seal of condemnation upon the
methods of the bad white men. When
that is don the. day of race troubles in
the south will be ended.

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear
There is only one way 20 cure Deaf
ness, and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by ar
inflamed condition Of the mucous lin
ing Of the Eustachian Tube. When this
tube gets infiamed YOU have a rum
bling SOUND or imperfect hearing, and
when it is entirely closed Deafness is
the result, and unless the infamma-
ton can be taken out and this tube
restored to its normal condition, hear
ing will be destroyed forever; nine
cases out of ten are caused by ca
tarrh, which is nothing but an infam-
ed condition of the mucous surfaces.
