So far as it urges the necessity of eter-
nal vigilance, we are very much inclined
to agree with the Memphis (Tenn.) News,
which in the course of an editorial on
The Solid South, says:
THE negro question has not been elnl-
mated by the Constitution of alabama or
the election laws of any southern State
1t is merely solved for the time being.
and eternal vigilance is the price that
the white voters will have to pay in order
to hold it in allegiance. The negro race
is here, and here to stay. The fifteenth
amendment to the Federal Constitution is
still part and parcel of the fundamental
law. So long as this is.tne case the solid
South is a political necessity in order that
the South shall remain a white mans
country
The white men of Virginia should regis
ter.

Home Enterprise and Thrift.

There is a very agreeable surprise IN
store for the people of Richmond when
they visit the newly-ftted establishment
Of the old established house of The Now
Ian Company, 921 east Main street.
This concern, which has always enjoyed
a lucrative trade, have caught the pro-
gressive spirit of the times and have just
converted their place of business into a
veritable storehouse of elegance and
beauty.
Their handsome store rooms have been
refitted with the most modern and ele-
CANT mahogany cases. diamond room set
tees, French plate mirrors, ETC., while in
those handsome cases is displayed the
most convenient and artistic manner the
most elegant stock of diamonds, watches.
jeWelry and sterling silver ware ever
shown in the South,
This house has enjoyed a successful
business career of more than a half cen
fury. being established in Petersburg, Va.
by Thomas Nowlan in 1850, and remove1
to Richmond in 1866. In 1885 the present
company was incorporated with Thomas
Nowlan, president; Ro. E. Macomber, vice
president; Ro. l.. Winston, secretary and
treasurer, and upon the retirement of Mr..
Nowan in 1858, Mr.. Macomber succeeded
him as president of the company. Mr..
Winston still retaining the position Of
secretary and treasurer. Through all
these years this concern has sustained
the reputation of dealing only In first
class goods, and have always been recog-
nized as one of the leading jewelry houses
of the State.
Both Messrs. Macomber and Winston
have been with the house for a number of
years, and with the experience that they
possess patrons can safely rely on them
when purchasing diamonds. watches. jew
aIrv etc and with the largely ilcrea Sed
facilities for the conduct of their bust
ness, we are assured that it will not be
necessary to go to some of the big stores
North when something out Of the general
run is. wanted, as their stock is at all
time varied and complete, and visitors are
always assured of polite attention.
The doors of this handsome establish
ment will be thrown open to the public
for inspection this morning. and we are
quite sure that the corcensus of opinion
will be that there is no handsomer store
in the entire South.

thrust when it says:
'AIr Roosevelts suggestion of the dif-
ficulty of revising the tariff in such a way
as to punish the bad trusts without
Furnishing the good, is a curious illustra-
ton OF the paternal theory. Protection
is for the individual benefit of the manu-
facturer, and may be extended as re-
ward or withdrawn as a punishment. The
general interests of the consumers is a
subordinate consideration"
The President says the Lynchburg
News, lis unwittinGiy doing the Demo-
cratic party service by bringing to the
front an issue that cannot fail to play a
prominent part in coming political con-
tests AT any rate, Democrats have no
reason to regret the loquacity of Presi-
dent Roosevelt"
But on the contrary, have every reason
to rejoice in 1t.
1t may suit the Presidents purpose very
well to try to make the impression on the
wealthy trusts and combines that those
who favor a modification of the tariff are
moved by spiteful motive and desire
to inflict punishment ON the great corpora
tons; but as a matter Of fact, he is not
artagonizing the position of the Demo-
cratic party. He is belaboring a shadow
which he himself has conjured up. The
Democratic idea is to give relief to the
many without taking from the few any
.hing that they can justly claim as a
right. There is no more thought of pun
ishment than there is Of bestowing favor
where it is not due.-Danyille Register.
That's The whole story.
We observe with interest, says the New
York Sun, that Mr.. Roosevelt has declared
what seems to be theoretical prefer once
for State supervision of the business
activities of corporations within the States.
But in the same breath he has advocated
as the only practical way Of controlling
the corporations n constitutional amend
ment that would curtail further the powers
of the States.

evidently not anxious to be registered,
and those that do apply do so on the pro

under the understanding clause fail to
