HIS COUNTRY, TOO,

colored clergyman of Jacksonville Fla, few days
ago wrote to the Charleston News Courier saying
81 a southern love our whole country
especially the SOUTH inclosng copy of an address
intended to correct misrepresentation of both the white
and black and promote their advancement. His
letter drew forth following comment so redolent of
the spirit of Tllmansm that it is difficult believe that
it from journal bitterly hostile to the
pitchfork statesman
I'VE do think his address or his efforts in behalf
of his viii do anything solving the prob
lem, any negro any white do anything
toward solving the problem long he believes and
his belief that any negro has the right speak
of this country our country
Commenting on this, the New York Tribune says:
The Charleston editor then proceeds that
is white mans country; that he took it from the red
man for his own USE not to share it with the slaves
whom he brought from Africa do his work This doc
trine of course familiar about 1850 But great
things have happened since then its promuga
ton in this uculent form just raises interesting
question concerning the relations of the persons who adj
vance it to the United States of America. 1t is not
question of their attitude toward the negro but toward
the constitution of what they so swaggerngy call their
country.
We should think this the country of those who
were loyal to its constitution obeyed its laws but
that it sthe country of whose who would have
destroyed if they could breathe defiance to
us desire TO deprive large numbers
its citizens of their right not merely to vote but even
u call it their country. That the attitude of
high minded leaders of the old south like Wade Famp
S'n, Lucius Q. c. Lamar and Alexander T. Stephens
Whey fought for the Conederacy but when they took
their places again in the Union they loyal to its
constitution Many of them objected ignorant negro
voters and worked overthrow the reconstruction gov
e-nments but in doing they pledged themselves and
the whole southern Democracy respect the negros
claim to consideration in this his country The new out
break Of intolerance toward the very existence of the
negro here is something foreign their teachings The
Charleston editor must be looking Tman rather than
80 Hampton for inspiration
The constitution of the United States declares that
"aH persons born naturazed in the United States
and subject TO the jurisdiction thereof are citizens of
the United States and Of the states wherein they reside
That includes They may by hook or crook be
deprived OF the ballot they may be industrially op
pressed they may be kept in ignorance they nav be
hanged and burned by mobs but they are citizens Of
the United States and Of North Carolina Nav thew not
then call this their country? Does not the constitution
Of the United States govern in Charleston?

TOM JOHNSON is THE BOSS.

Tom Johnson of Cleveland has been confirmed IN the
leadership of the Ohio The state convention
did it with but comparatively little opposition He heads
the ticket as candidate for governor with
him as candidate for United States senator, Youngs
town lawyer named John H Clarke. Clarke is reputed
to have actively opposed William Jennings Bryan his
two unsuccessful sprnts toward the White House. and
yet the action of is claimed to be vic

Tom Johnson who dictated everything, and whose
every wish was carried with much sycophancy
as if he were raah delegates to the conven-
courtiers is of the unique characters

advocate of his taxation; yet the Demo

same party that indorsed Bryan who opposed corpora
tons with bitterness love for millionares
or multimionares who repeats Lncolns great epgram
that this government of the people for the people
and by the people," often and with much enthus
as1n and who has much at variance with the
single tax idea that fairly decision
was rendered in the supreme against the income

The whole proceedings of the Ohio convention con-
stitutes paradox with few any equals in modern

If this is "a government by the people" what
democrat can action of the ONO convention,
which allowed Cleveland "boss"-a multimillionaire

Tom Johnson was so completely the dictator Of the

opposition to Bryan saying at time that he
would decline the nomination for the governorshp
less Clarke nominated with him. He practically

A Woman's Cure for the Drug Habit.

Dr. Margaret s. Halleck of the New York State reformatory for women re- ports in the Medical Record her success in treating victims of the morphine habit in cases where she cut off the drug at once. Not long ago medicine taught that the morphine habit must be broken off by degrees and that the cure was always attended with untold suffering. and current tcx. books still teach that severe symptoms will follow the sudden withdrawal ot the drug.
 The first case Dr. Halleck treated was an American girl, 24 years old, who said she had contracted the habit while under a doctors care for a broken leg. The patient was taking six to ten grains of morphine daily besides smoK- ing q dollars worth of crude opium. On the day that she was deprived of the drug she was seized with much pain. Her pupils were dilated, she vomited was extremely nervous and said that she ached all over. The doctor admin istered one-sixtieth of grain of strychnine sulphate, one two- -hundredtn of a grain hyoscine hydrobromate and one-fourth of a grain of codeine sui

phate. This is the prescription she used in other cases, except that some times she doubled the quantity of hy- oscine hydrobromate.
 Next morning the patient reported that she had not slept we'll but vomit- ing had ceased and she was free from pain. The same dose /was administered morning and evening for week. Az the end of that time the patient left her room and did light house work. She was still somewhat nervous, but her pains were gone and her appetite was good. Strychnine in quantities or one-sixtieth to one -thirtieth of a grain was continued for week and then all treatment was stopped. In six months she gained thirty pounds. She has been out of the reformatory now for eight months and has not relapsed.
 The second case was a German girl. 23 years old, who, when she was E years old, was induced by an older girl to go and live in Chinatown. She learn
 
 for eight years. When sine came under the doctors care she was smoking from s1 to S1.50 worth of opium a day. Sho was emaciated, her pulse was slow, sae muscular tremors. She received the same treatment as the first patient for four days and the strycnine was COZ tinued for a while. Her weight went from 109 to 142 pounds. She is, pr. Halleck reports, a good member or society.
 An American girl, 29 years old, who had used morphine in increasing doses for ten years, was the third patient. Today she is the picture of health and weighs 190 pounds. She says she has no desire for morphine, her feeling is rather an aversion.
 The fourth was a girl of 24, who had taken morphine hypodermically for seven years. Her daily dose being from fifty to sixty grains: in addition she took cocaine. She entered Bellevue three times to be cured of her habit, but relapsed each time. She weighed only ninety pounds and her body Was covered with lesions, left by the hypo- dcrmic. After ten days treatment she received no more medicine. She gained over twenty pounds in six weeks.
 None of these patients received any I,:, tIon iY,an he fro1 tv11a was begun and each professes to have lost all craving for it. Dr. Halleck says the combination ofstrychninc, hyoscinc and codeine forms perfect antidote.

 As soon as the landowners line up the government will go ahead with the epoch-marking work
 How long will it take the people Of the Salt River valley to give Director Walcott and Secretary Hitchcock the assurance that the governments mag nificcnt offer is definitely accepted? It should not take thirty days to get the signature of every owner of land in the valley. Since the director arrived in the territory. nearly three weeks ago, push the completion of the local work Everybody wished to know whether in the judgment of the government off, cials any mistakes had been made. We now have the official declaration that no mistakes have been made, and I; remains only to hurry to completion the subscriptions for shares.
 As We have stated several times, 1t may develop that amendments more or less important may be found advisable before the dam is completed or, per haps, even before construction actually begins. If so, the combined good sense of the shareholders after the assoc.a- ton is completed-when every share holder will be on a footing of exact equality with every other shareholder will certainly be equal to formula ting and adopting any changes which jus tice and sound business sense recom- mend.

is at hand.

The war departments translators of Philippine documents made an inter- esting discovery. the other day. They found Q memorandum in the handwrit- ing of Emilio Aguinaldo to the effec; that he had commissioned two Fill Cruz, to kill General Elwell s. Otis, then Ganuary, 1S99) in chief command in the Philippines. On January 4, 1S93, Gen. Otis issued his proclamation de- claring the sovereignty of the United States over the Philippines The hos tile FilipinOs tried to offset the in- fiuence of this proclamation by counter manifestos, and Aguinaldo's memor- andum was on the back of a paper signed by number of his followers which protested against American rule. Captain John M. Taylor of the Four teenth infantry, who discovered the document, is familiar with Aguinaldo' ' wri4ng, and he says there can be ID doubt that the discriminating memor- audum was written by the Filipino George Washington who is still so fervently worshipped by the maudli1l element of New England's population
 There is nothing surprising in the dis covery of the paper disclosing Senor Aguinaldo's lamb-like intentions. Amer jeans whose judgment is not guided by fearful emotions long ago arrived at a pretty fair measure of Aguinaldo. The new incident is of interest chiefly Fl generally: it will be entertaining ro note the excuses which Schurz, Atkin- son, Parkhurst and the rest will make for Aguinaldo.
 The discovery of Aguinaldo's writ ten acknowledgement that he had com missioned two of his countrymen to murder General Otis will be especially embarrassing for the very Rev. Charles H. Parkhurst, keeper in ordinary of the American conscience, and director gen. eral of public morals. Very recently, and apropos of nothing particularly, Dr. Parkhurst treated himself to an- other violent outburst against General Frederick Funston for being such a scoundrel as to deceive and capture his brilliant performance were descrfb- ed in about all the epithets of which the pious Parkhurst is such a master and Agunaldo was eXtoIled as one oi the modern martyrs of the world.
 But considering the hatred which the anti-imperialists" have for the Amer ican army, they will, of course, find that Aguinaldo was justified in resort ing to murder when dealing witl American soldiers.
