The Life Guards are two regiments Of
calvary forming part Of the British
household troops. They are gallant
soldiers, and every loyal British heart is
proud OF them. Not only the Kings
household, but yours, ours, everybody s
should have its life guards The need of
them is especially great when the great
est foes OF life, diseases. find allies in the
very elements, as colds, influenza, ca
tsrrh, the grip and pneumonia do in the
stormy month OF March. The best way
that we know Of 70 guard against these
diseases Is 20 strengthen the system with
Hoods SarsapaTilla--the greatest of all
life guards. Il removes the conditions in
which these diseases make their most
successful attack, gives vigor and tone
TO all vital organs and functions, and
imparts genial warmth to the blood.
Remember the weaker the system the
greater the exposure TO disease. Hood
Sarsaparilla makes the system strong.

Naval Academy 10 Initiate German Sys-

An important addition to the course a.

be provided through the establishment
OF an experimental engineering school.
intended TO serve not only for the edaca-
ton in steam engineering OF the cadets.
but is to be employed tor research and
experimental =ork Of great value to the
merchant marine. The institution wIIl
provide school Of engineering equaling
the best scientific Institutions. Tne idea
is the result of Rear-Admiral George W.
Melville's investigation of the German
system, which has given. as he says, the
best and heetesi ships crossing the Allan
tic ocean. The House Naval Committee
has agreed to include in the annual naval
bill the appropriation Of S4oo. 900 acces-
sorry, and will so report the bill Admiral
Melville has insisted that the sum shall
not be taken from the 81, 600, 200 zppro-

emy, but be exclusive of the sam. The
new school will give to the Commercial
world opportunities OF Conducting expert

LOVES FUTILE DREAM.

Really now, this thing is too bad, if it
is so. The idea of the Drummer Boy
being so involved in love and prospective
matrimony ard political retreats all at
the same tims. 1t is enough to make
the little god Cupid take to weeping and
swearing black crepe for the union of
two throbbing hearts, which his wiles
have brought together. but to meet and
separate because of the ballot box
The cause Of the trouble is set forth
in the Roxboro Courier, which says that
a Northern paper prints sensational
story to the effect that the fancee of Con-
gresham E. Spencer Blackburn declares
that their wedding is conditioned upon
his re-eletion to Congress. Farewell
vain hopes! Unless this fiancee selects
another bridegroom she is destined to
life of 'ingle blessedness.

OUGHT TO BE ASHAMED.
Buckingham Anglo-saxon,)

buckingham Anglo Saxon)
If the Republican party in North Caro-
lima is sincere in the position it has now
taken, that a negro, even the most re-
spectacle and highly educated negro, is
unworthy even to sit in one corner OF
their convention the white Republicans
of the State ought to be ashamed to lift
their heads in North Carolina as long as
they live, for they are the men who put
one thousand of them in public office in
the State. If they are unworthy to oc-
cupy a back seat in a Republican con-
vention, how can they ever justify them
selves in placing them in public offices
where they had business with and au-
thority over white women! They do not
lessen their crime any by pretending that
they were hypocrites then, and that they
sold their white brethren into negro DOM
ination only because it furnished them an
easy road to office. We have no malice
against any man, but the political crimes
of these men ought to be remembered
against them as long as they do live-and
run for office.

DIsGRACED THE STATE.
CStatesvile Mascot.)

For supreme presumption, cheek and
gall. a Republican convention leads all
corners. After they had disgraced the
State with one of the most corrupt and
venal administrations known to ciyiliza-
ton. they rise up in convention assem-
bled and say:
1--WE invite the attention of the people
of the State to the clean, able and econo-
mic administration of our State govern
ment by the Republican and POpulist par
ties from 1897 to 1901 and challenge q
comparison of it with the present reck-
less management of our affairs by the
Democratic party"
We have no doubt that Convict Martin
Kirby Smith, a refugee from justice; Bob
Hancock, who was charged with helm
Gus offense; those who managed the
penitentiary affairs; the members of the
Legislature who adjourned in honor of
Fred Douglas, and Gov. Russell, who had
the State in one continuous legal row,
with loud acclaim will cry out amen to
this wonderful attempt at another vindi-
cation of them by their friends.
1t is an agreed fact among all the peo-
pie of the State that the Fusion admin
istration proved an absolute failure in
nearly every department of the govern
ment, besides the corruption that attend
ed their affairs in too many instances.
/ These are the conditions that made the
constitutional amendment possible and
necessary and forced the people of the
State to it's adoption to forever again
prevent the. elevation to office of such
men, as well as the disfranchisement OF
the negro. And the recent utterance Of
the Republicans in convention assembled
endorsing and proclaiming as able and
clean the most depraved administration
in the history of the State is additional
proof of the necessity of the amendment
to bar out of its affairs such men.
The Republicans as a party, with the
negro or without him, are incompetent to
administer the States affairs and the
sincere ones will honestly admit the fact.
And any man, knowing all these things
as he does, who fails to vote the Demo-
cratic ticket, thereby helping the Repub-
lican party is an enemy to himself and is
sleeping on his dearest rights.

THE EDUCATIONAL ERA.

Never before in the history of North
Carolina has the outlook for an ap-
preaching school year been as bright as
the present.
The schools and colleges that have al
ready opened their doors have done so
to a largely increased patronage, and the
reports which come from institutions yet
to open are that the prospects were never
brighter for a large attendance. The
enrolment at all the schools promises to
go far beyond the high water mark OF
any previous year.
The cause of this is not hard to find. Ia
North Carolina under the able leadership
of Governor Aycock and Superintendent
Joynerf there has been conducted cam
paign against illiteracy greater than any
campaign for like purpose ever at
tempted in any State. The educators and
friends of education have gone to the
people and made their plea for the better
education OF the children of the State and
this plea mas Deen nedfQ. us TeSuIIS dbS
being shown as each individual school
begins its session.
A great work has been accomplished.
but it is only the promise of a still
greater work which can and will be ac-
complshed by continued agitation. The
men who are behind the movement for
better schools have not entered into this
as mere temporary effort, but they pro-
pose to continue the work and to labor
till there can be no child in all the
State who will not be offered the means
for an education.
1t is a grand work, and its continuance
means great things for North Carolina.
With a citizenship of increasing intelli-
gence she will make progress in all ma
terial developments, and as the years
pass she will rank as one among the fore
most States in intelligence.
