surprised. Through long suffering
from Dyspepsia" he writes, "my
wife was greatly run down. She
had no strength or vigor and suffer
ed great distress from her stomach,
but she tried Electric Bitters which
helped her at once, and, after using
four bottles, she is entirely we'll, can
eat anything. It's grand tonic, and
its gentle laxative qualities are
splendid for torpid liver" For ln

Weiserite will cause rejoicing by
making a similar donation to the
Weiser Academy. Such institutions
are dependent on gifts for
their maintenance and this commun-
ity is able to ''chip to the centre
as literally as the New Englanders
from whom support is asked. If the
needs of the schools are understood
by our men of phlethoric purses, we
believe they will do the right thing
Weiser must have prosperous schools
if she is to be known as an educa-
tional centre.

attention was centred on the progress OF the
steel strike settlement. transactions in the steel

come OF over $1S10 600 did not cause any marked
enthusiasm over the stock. and actual news re-
garding other issues failed to stimulate active
dealings. Rumors. however played part in
the last hours trading. There were active
vivals of crop damage stories and reports Of
hitch in the steel strike conference. and as
consequence board room traders sold the West
railroad shares and the steel stocks, with
more success in reducing prices than at any
othe- .ime in the day

Senator Haywood's Defense.

A month after his resignation, Mr..
Haywood gave out to the newspapers an
address "To the people of North Caro-
lima in which he reviewed circumstances
of his election on the tariff, recited the
instructions given him by the Legislature
and then set forth his reasons for his
resignation. At considerable length he
argued the tariff question, seeking to
show the differences between the Me
Kay bill of 1874" and the mckay bill OF
1916" He then asked:
Now, then, put it to the conscience
of the people of North Carolina, who |
know love all their country, whether, I'M
der such circumstances, | was bound to
violate my sense OF duty, and, contrary
alike to this party pledge and to my own
sober judgment as a Senator, to assent
to an act which violated, out and out, the
Mckay bill of 1874, where there was no
public emergency to require it and no
national exigency to excuse it, and that
when I did most confidently believe that
the new tariff act Of the present Congress
was, in itself. unwise and full of mis-
chief to the republic? Was it my duty
to you, or to the Democratic party OF
North Carolina to have done that? And
had l no right to resign and retire from
it? Was I bound to hold on to my office,
and put up the pretended excuse THAT

LIMA HAD CHANGED their minds and

Senator Vance Instructed.

Another and more recent instance Of
Senator yielding to the wishes OF his peo-
Pile, when his own views are on the
other side of the question, is furnished
by Senator Vance and the sub treasury
plan OF the Farmers Alliance.
Early in 1890 the farmers of the State
began to agitate the sub-treasury plan.
and. at their request, Senator Vance in
PRODUCED bill, prepared by their COM
mittee the purpose Of which was to put
the plan in operation. 1t was generally
thought on account of Mr.. Vances intro
ducing the bill that he was in favor or
its passage, but this proved untrue. AS
soon as he learned or this impression,
SeBatcr Vance wrote a letter 10 MT
Elias Carr, pre- sident of the Alliance, CIV
ing reasons why he could not support the
bill. This letter was widely circulated
and at one time seemed to threaten Sen
atcr Vance's re- election, so many alliance
friends did it drive from his support.
Before the Legislature met, however.
Mr.. Carr wrote to Mr. Vance asking III
the Legislature instructs you to advocate
and vote for the sub-treasury plan OF
financial reforra will you carry out said
instructions IN good faith?" In reply
Senator Vance said: Il recognize the ola
Democratic doctrine OF the right OF the
people to instruct their representatives
10 the fullest extent to which it has ever
been carried in North Carolina. / hold
that the will of the people, clearly and
unequivocally expressed, must be obeyed
unless compliance would involve the rep
resentative in a moral wrong, in when
case it would be his duty to resign ana
give place to representative who would
obey. Good faith in the observance OF
instructions and public pledges is abso-
lutely essential to government based on
the popular viii"
This settled the matter and Senator
Vance was reelected by an almost
unanimous vote.

Freedom in Politics. {"

A politician has as much right as any
body else to be honest and conscientious
He, like other folk, may think and act
for himself, rather than follow party be-
hests. But in doing so let him not wear
the livery of his party to serve the other
fellow in.
Men may have perfect freedom of
thought and speech in Politics as in Re-
ligion, examining every dogma and de-
Gliding every principle upon its merits, but
in doing this they ought not seek 10
march under the banner they are pretend
ing to attack

Testing this wonderful independence.
The spirit OF freemen will never brook
restraint of speech or action, whether

Witty as much as 1t is at enmity with
party hypocrisy and official pertdy or
the two. the latter is the far greater
crime. and when it has come to be calmly

the people desired me to pass the latter,
when, forsooth, l did not know the fact
to be so, and in my heart ] did not be-
lieve it?''
In conclusion, Senator Haywood shows
how he might have lodged the issue and
retained his seat in the Senate, but he
declares that he could not have done so
and have acted honestly with himself
and frankly with his constituents. He
adds:
"In my case there was no room for
new theories. The Legislature that elected
me passed resolutions declaratory of
their doctrine. They were passed by the
party that elected me. Whilst the voice
of God in the soul of man demanded my
opposition to the experimental tariff,
Democratic State Legislature at the ut
most only demanded of me to do other
wise 'or resign The North Caro-
lima resolutions of themselves constitute
al once my defense and q refutation or
the absurd notion that Senators who can
not obey have no right to resign with
out being criminal. The Legsla-
ture says that to resign is not only the
right but the duty OF Senator who does
not prefer to obey their instructions. 1t
is not to obey without any other alter
native, but it is to obey or resign
either one CT the Understanding to his
own choice. So he does one or the other
he is faithful"
In the case Of the vote of Mr.. Jarnigan,
of Tennessee, above referred to- we have
an example of man who followed his
instructions, though they were exactly
opposite to his own views. Jarnigan was
a Wing, and though his party was solid
against the tariff bill, he voted with the
Democrats for it, in obedience to lnstruc-
lions given him by the Legislature OF
Tennessee.
