Wilmington Messenger Oam.: It is

not seek to cripple or etarve on or

other hand. The middle way is always

will start no movement OF this kind,
and they will not undertake to pack

this gear in seeing to it that white men
again control the State from top to bot

roads Or other monopolies, but no such
overshadowing necessity will distract
their attention in the future. The rail

Leicester, April 1.--Those who thought

evil influence of such an establishment
and told OF his personal experience.
Albert Z. Smith was the last remon-

against the scheme. He said that the
place could not be run at a profit unless
liquor was sold, and said that he was
sure that when the present proprietorS
gave up, somebody else might take il
who would not be bound by any pro

Because it Is common and not immedi-

giving the trouble any medical attention.
Moreover, tho rather general impression
that surgical operation is the only cure
