QUESTION ANSWERED

Yes, August Flower still has the largest
sale oflany medicine In the civilized world.
Your mothers and grandmOthers' never
thought of using anything else for indi-
gestion or biliousness. Doctors were
scarce, and they seldom heard of appen-
dIcitis, nervous prostration or heart fail
ure, etc. They used August Flower to
clean out the system and stop fermenta-
tion of undlgested food, regulate the ac-
tion of the lver, stimulate the nervous and
organic action of the system, and that Is
all they took when feeling dull and bad
with headaches and other aches. You on

ur Base Ball Team Brought
Victory Out of Defeat.
THE GAME fl SURPRISE.
The Paris Team Was the Favor.
ite in Betting Circles at the
Opening of the Game.

Yesterday the third game be.
tween Paris and Texarkana was
played at the gun club grounds, and
the largest crowd of enthusiasts of
the season assembled 10 witness the
game.
The teams were split up some,
three men being substituted on the
Paris team and couple on the
Texarkana team.
Chic and Deylin, the regular
battery, took places on bases and
turned the box over to substitutes.
The game opened with Texarkana
at the bat.
Paris was the hot favorite and
led Texarkana up to the 9Th inning
by 5 runs, and the hackers of the
Paris team were Offering all kinds
of odds. Many of these bets were
taken, still others were not, for the
most sanguine Texarkana hacker
had lost heart and saw nothing but
defeat for the club. 1t was at this
point that Captain Chic put Devlin
in the box, and then the hackers of
the home team went wild, threw
their hats and umbrellas in the air,
for they had confidence in Devlin
and looked on him in the box as an
army would when a favorite COM
mander was at their head, and he
did not deceive them, for he famed
those Paris boys as fast as they
could take the bat, and very few
hit his balls.
1t was the commencement of
snatching victory from defeat and
the Texarkana boys turned loose
their vocal powers, COW bells and
horns and made enough noise to
wake the seven sleepers from their
long siesta,
We have been inclined to roast
the boys heretofore but we now say
and believe that no club can say
what they can-that is, out of ten
games played on the home diamond
they have lost but one, and out Of
thirteen games played this season
haYe lost only three, and they were
won byShreveport on the Shreve-
port diamond.
Yesterdays game as played is
marked on the score card as follows:
1854 Sc 789
Paris 2 0 0 0 0 0 OF
Texarkana 002 005 0 Q 1-10

TELL 1T TO THE MARINES,

The New York Marine Journal is not
a southern nor a democratic paper. II
is strictly republican, and it is a val
liable publication for all connected
with commerce and sea-farirg. In it.
last issue gives a paragraph hat no
doubt edited many of it's readers in the
north, although the statement OF Prin
cipal Frissel we had seen before. The
remainder of the paragraph is news to
us, and will be to many others. Il
says:
All Marine Journal readers know
personally more or less about negroes,
both afioat and ashore, and therefore
the following statement recently made
by H. Frissel, principal of the Hamp-
ton Va. Normal and Industrial Insti-
tute, before the Industrial Commission
al Washington, will be interesting:
Although the south has spent $780,
600, 900 on public education for negroes,
he said, M third Of the race has ac-
tually refrigerated, one third is where
it was at the beginning of the war, and
the remainder have advanced. In his
connection it is also interesting to note
that the late Frederick Douglass, who
was often cited as an instance of what
the negro can attain to in intellectual
development, asserted himself that ne
had not a drop of negro blood in his
veins, his maternal grandmother hav-
ing been a genuine Potomac Indian
woman who became a slave, and his
other parentage was all white. We
never heard of but one genuine negro
who became master of a vessel bigger
than an oyster sloop and he is now
dead, the late Captain Cooling, of Bal
timOre."

AN ABLE SPEECH BY a LOUIS
IANIAN.

We ead the speech of senator Nc
Emery, of Louisiana, with very much
satisfaction 1t is strong in facts and
clear in argument. The account of ne
gro rule in Louisiana is so black and
stained with crime IL does cad as the
Senator contends, Like a hell born
dream" So far as white republicans
in Louisiana from now fighting or dis
approving of the amended constitution
tina relieved the state of negro rule,
and restored law, order, confidence,
peace and prosperity, they approve of
it, and permit now only the educated
negroes 10 participate in their conven-
tions. nis shows how much more
sane and sensible, patriotic and self
respecting they are in Louisiana than
they are in North Carolina. They are
for good ZONES government out there
that protects industry. fosters the best
interests of all, and makes for the good
o both races. There is a great deal in
senator McEnery's able, effective
:peech that richly merits close atten-
ton, and it hould be widely circulated
and read in North Carolina. We make
today but one extract from it. Near
the beginning he says:
"AnnuI the legislation of Louisiana,
which has for it's sole object the adj
Vancement of both races, the progress
of the state socially, politically, n in
4dustrially, and again ne
gro domination in that state, the tragic
period of 1876 will be reinacted. The
white republicans of Louisiana make
no complaint against the provisions of
the present constitution regarding suf-
frage. The more intelligent negroes &C
cept it as a wise settlement of the
question of suffrage. The ignorant of
the negro race are Indifferent about it,
as they have long ceased TO have any
political affiliations except those which
were momentarily created by the pur-
of their vote.
There never has been any disposi-
ton on the part of the people of Lou
isiana to deprive the negro of any Of
his political or civil rights. There has
been and will continue to be determine
ton, fixed and unalterable, to deny him
social privileges on equality with the
whites, to prohibit him from aspiring
to an equality in social life, which ma
ture forbids."

Va, lis still waving his flag" says the
Central Presbyterian. After awhile
doubters and ministers will find out
that it k 100 to make a century.
But how people with heads ever came
to the conclusion that SO years consti-
tute a century, which mean one hurd-
red, is marvellous.
The semi-weekly messenger. [volume] (Wilmington, N.C.) 1897-1908, 1900-02-02

The New York World has a cartoon
representing the administration at
work with a great revolving saw
whiting away the constitution of the
United States. Henderson and Nc
kinley are whiting it down SO as to
meet "McKinley's Private War of Con-
quest" "Polygamy and Slavery in
Sulu;" imperialism" 'SubjectRaces;"
Puerto Rico Duties" Roberts Case
"Quay's Case" The cutting is rapid
and the chips fly from the old funda-
mental law under Mckinley with in
tense vigor and desperation. And so
the country goes and all hat is dear
and sacred.
