MASSACRE AT CAR
TER TILLE.

The riot at Carterville, ILL.,, on
last Sunday is another one of those
cowardly attack upon few help
less colored miners, Notwithstanding
the statement that was circulated by
many of the leading newspapers that
the colorcd men began = ls.
by shooting into crowd OF people.
1t looks almost impossible for intel
ligent people to accept such state
ment of 1o or is colored men shoot
ing into a crowd of white men and
not white man hurt. 1t is the
same old way of trying to poison the
minds of the people against the
Negro. More than twenty lives
have been sacri6sed in attempting
to work in the mines in Illinois
during the past year, and about the
same number wounded. At the
time of the first outrage Governor
Tanner waited until the strikers had
a chance to show the Negro of that
locality that their lsves were in dan
ger if they tried to stay any longer
and then he ordered out the troops
to take charge of the town and the
mines, during their stay peace and
good order were maintained, but a
few friends of these same strikers
told the Governor that they would
see that peace would continue if he
would remove the troops. He did
and so the massacre followed, and
what has occurred is just what might
have been expected, and what was
intended on the part of those who
made up the mob. is to be hoped
that the Governor will not listen to
the entreaties of the same citizens
and withdraw the troops from Car
terville until peace and good order
is fully restored. We have watch
ed the actions of those who have
the duty of prote ting the lives and
property and are fully satisfied that
these colored miners have not had
proper protection. 1t does not lie
in the nouthes ofthe American peo.
pie to criticise the actions Of the
French people in the trial of Dreyfus
while hundreds of colored citizens
are being shot down and burned to
the stake in the most brutal manner
and nothing has been done in the
way of bringing the guilty parties to
justice, except as in this case and a
few others where they have went
through the formal process Of a
trial which does not and was not in.
tended to reach the dignity of q
court where justice prevail. Drey,
fus had a trial. Out of hundreds
of innocent colored men which have
been disposed of by mobs and lynch
law, not one have had fair trial.
We condemn the action of tha
mob as we'll as the action of the
Governor and those in authority

NERVOUS DYSPEPSIA
To Gain Flesh, to Sleep Well, to Know
What Appetite and Good Digestion
Means.
MAKE A TEST OF STUARTS DYS.
PEPSIA TABLETS.

No trouble is more common or more
misunderstood than nervous dyspepsia
People having it think their nerves are
to blame and are surprised that they
are not cured by nerve medicines. The
real seat of the mischief is lost sight of.
The stomach is the organ to be looked
after.
Nervous dyspeptics often do not have
any pain whatever in the stomach, nor
perhaps any of the symptoms of stom-
ach weakness. Nervous dyspepsia shows
itself not in the stomach so much as in
nearly every organ. In some cases the
heart palpitates and is irregular; in 9TH
ers the kidneys are effected; in others
the bowels are constipated, with head
