General James s.. Carlson, surveyor OF
the poret Of New YORK, TO a prominent
North Carolina negro. shows the way the
wind is blowing:

MY Dear Mr. Person: L am glad TO
have your letter l need no thanks for
what | did il opposing the Jim Crow
party in Alabama and other Southern
Sta ties. No self-respecting Republican

General Garrison is RooseveIts South
ern campaign manager and what he says
and does is inspired. Some time ago
he drove out the negro from Republic
can ranks in Alabama ana Texas, later
in North Carolina, with the help of
Senator Pritchard. Roosevelt knew of
this at the time and sanctioned it. Now
he is beginning to find out#that the me-
gro is about all there is in the Repubii-
can party in the South and he realizes
he can't do without the black brother
yet awhile.
His backdown was complete when the
NEGRO dalepa fion called on him a short
time ago, and an evidence of the effects
,oe his change of front upon Virginia was
the rundown by Bowden of G. j..
HCausey, who, up to the time the Repub-
lican convention was held at Newport
News on the 7th of this month. had ex-
spected to receive the nomina ton OF Ills
party to oppose representative Maynard.
causey came out frankly and said liz,
was in favor of ellnlina ting the negro
from politics and was promptly squelched
in consequence.

The tone. character. and quality of the

Celery Compound have firmly established
its position in the homes Of all Intelligent
and thoughtful people.
Paine's Celery Compound has always
appealed to the sick and suffering with
honest statements and solid facts. Some
doubters-with honest purposc-haVe
taken the trouble to write to. and in
many cases have interviewed the writer's
of published testimonials. In every case
they have been thoroughly satisfied. and
convinced that Paines Celery Compound

not successfully filled by any other rem

The details of the controversy between
the officers Of the ?rd infantry are IA
n1iliai to the reading public. As a result
of friction of long standing between Colo
mel Hisdon and LieutenAnt- Colonel Kyle,
a highly sensational letter was written
by Lieutenant-Colonel Kyle to Colonel
Higdon in August. 1901. This letter was
made the basis of charges preferred
against Leutenant-C Colonel Kyle by Colo
rel Higdon. The courtmartial was held
in Montgomery in January of this year
and developed the fact that there was
much bitterness between the opposing
factions in the regiment

viction of Lieutensnt-C Colonel Kyle of one
of the charges and the assessment of

BONHAM CASE SETTLED
SUIT AGAINST STREET RAIL
WAY co. COMPROMISED.
Mother of Young Motorman Who
Was Killed in October Sued for
$4,000, But Accepts an
Adjustment.

The suit of Mrs. Sarah E. Bonham
against the Montgomery Street Railway
Company for $4,000 for the death of her
son, NJ Ford Bonhahl. which had been
brought in the Circuit Court of Montgom-
cry, has been settled out of court and
the suit has been wtthdra wn. The attor-
neys of the Street Railway Company de-
cIined yesterday to say what sum had
been paid Mrs. Bonham.
The trial of the suit was set for yester-
day in Judge Richardson's court. but IL
was announced when the case was called,
that the parties had settled IL between
themselves. An order was made to that
effect, which directed that half the costs
be paid by the plaintiff and half by the
defendant.
The settlement of the suit out of court
marks a new departure for the company
in its handling OF the damage suits filed
against it. These suits. of which there
have been considerable number. have
heretofore been vigorously contested.
During the last term of the City Court a
half dozen damage suits against the
Montgomery Street Railway Company
were filed and several of them are now
before the Supreme Court on appeals.
Ford Bonharn was IS years old He
came to Montgomery from his home Ii,
Wilcox County. He secured employment
las a motorman with the Montgomery
Street Railway Company.
On October Is. 1891, while he was being
instructed in the duties of a motorman.
he was thrown from the front platform
of car on Holcombe Street. The car
upon which young Bonhsm was thrown
was going at q fast rate of speed while he
was at the lever. He was fignallnd ~
increase the speed. II Is said. but de-
clined to do so. The old motorman vino
was instructing him. it is alleged. push
ed him aside and turned on more of the
current, As the car dashed around the
curve at ifolcombe and Mildred Streets,
II jumped and almost left the track Sew
eral OF the passengers were thrown from
the car into the street. Bonham was
hurled TO the ground his head striking
the rail. He was terribly injured. lie
was carried to an iniirmary. where he
died after several days of suffering. He
never recovered consciousness after the
accident.
His mother. as Administrative of his es-
tate. entered suit against the company
for $4,000 and employed able counsel.
