Kodol does for the stomach that

the stomach, relaxing the nervous ten

the stomach and digestive organs to

FASTEST RUN EyBR MADE.

Nearly one hundred passenger

special Illinois Central train to attend
Inc forty-eighth annual convention of

stops, and 1896 miles in 420 minutes, ex-
elusive of stops. AT times and for short

According to recent speed tests made
oy the Pennsylvania railway, this is
within six-tenths of mile of being as
fast as it is possible to run modern

ABSURD LABOR LEGISLATION.


The Washington Post, commenting
on labor legislation, says:
The builders, contractors, and mater
fal men, who have been most bitter in
their denunciation of the extreme at
titude taken by labor organizations
under the leadership of such men as
Sam Parks and other walking dele
gates, have apparently gone to the 9th
er extreme and become even more rad
ical than the organizations they have
been criticising. These builders and
contractors, through their representa-
tive organizations, have outlined bill
which they propose to introduce in the
New York legislature which will pro-
hibit strikes under the penalty of i'm
prisonment, prevent lockouts, and es-
tablish system of compulsory arbitra-
ton. The author of the bill, according
to the New York papers, is lawyer
who has been making a study of labor
conditions in Australia. He seems to
have secured remarkable assortment
Of impracticable notions by his study,
and proposes a. species of legislation
that will not be countenanced by the
lawmakers of any state in the union.
The agitation of this plan can have no
result other than to emphasize and ag-
gravate the difference already existing
between capital and labor, differences
that are being rapidly adjusted every
where except in New York by intelIi-
gent methods of arbitration and con-
Citation.
Whatever criticism may be justly Of
fered to the aggressiveness of labor or
CARNATIONS, all thinking people will be
forced to admit that the adpotion of a
bill prohibiting strikes would be simply
the enactment of measure legalizing
the slavery Of the workmen, just as a
law to prohibit lockouts would mean
slavery, and general decentralization of
the employers. The contention of the
author of the bill that it is warranted
by the precedents established by the
courts in enjoining laborers from strik-
ing is not tenable. Such injunctions
it is true, have been issued, but they
have invariably been dissolved, and the
entire trend Of legal decisions on this
subject for several years has been to
firmly establish the right Of men to quit
work when they desire to do so, and
also the right of employers to lockout
their employees when they deem it nee
essary. The strike, and the lockout
have been edged about by conditions
and rulings preventing picketing, the
interference with property, and the
like, but there has been no successful
effort to induce courts to interfere with
the freedom Of either employers or the
employed. The New York proposition
is socialistic scheme, wholly lnwor-
thy of consideration by the men who
are urging it as a solution of vexed
labor problems. Roanoke Evening

DIXIE.

The proposition to change the words
of Dixie" does not appear to be
arousing a great degree of enthusiasm.
The sentiment of the South seems to be
that if it was good enough for the
boys in gray to march by and good
enough for them to fight by and good
enough for them to die by, it is good
enough for US. The words may not
be those of wisdom, but heroism has
ennobled them and the love of a people
has hallewed them. The South will
stand BY Dixie as it is written until
the songs OF men shall float into silence
upon the air of eternity.

TELLlEAN's ACQUITAL NO SUR
PRISE.

The editor of the Richmond News
eader was for a long number of years
Identified with South Carolina jour
aalism, and is intimately. acquainted
with political conditions and moral
standdards as they obtain in that state.
What he says, upon the subject of eX-
lieutenant- Governor Tillman's acquit-
tai of the charge of numbering Editor
| Gonzales will prove of more than ord1-
| lary interest. In the Richmond News
Leader of last week appeared the fol-
| lowing editorial:
Nobody who knows conditions and
| remembers precendents in South Caro-
lima expected ]. H. Tillman to be Sc
rfously punished for killing Mr.. Con
zales, editor of the State newspaper.
The best we hoped for was mistrial
or short term in the penitentiary.
The acquital is but one of a long line.
looking back through the files of any
old South Carolina newspaper we may
ind case after case just as bad as this,
/ In which the defendants have gone free
So far as we can recall, not more than
five white men have been legally hang
ed in South Carolina in the thirty-eight
years since the war, and it is safe to
say that in that time white men have
committed not less than thirty-fve
hundred homicides. We think this is
putting it moderately averaging not
qulle two week for the whole state.
And South Carolina is not peculiar.
Other southern states have a record
equally black, although South Caro-
lima has been made especially conspic-
llous in this respect by the prominence
of the actors IN some of her tragedies.
1t will be remembered that Capt F. W
Dawson, who was editor of the News
and Curier, Charleston, was shot and
killed in a private quarrel by man
who attempted to drag his body to a
pack stairway and bury it in closet;
but the trial ended in acquittai. Other
cases just as bad could be cited. In
one or two we recall where murderers
Of women have been punished by i'm
1risonment for longer or shorter terms.
u another, a man who deliberately
shot and killed three unarmed and de-
fenseless white men was convicted of
muraer in the second degree, we be-
lieye, and then only by the most siren
aous and determined stand taken by
the authorities.
Nobody has explained why. The
people Of the state are kindly, hos
pitable, generous and brave, as a RUE,
tth the proportion Of scalawags and
9iackgnards among them unusually
small When atrocious murder is done
a gasp of horror comes from the re-
spectability and conservatism Of the
state-horror as strong and profound
as is felt anywhere in the country. Yet
when the case comes to trial, juries will
not convict and punish. 1t seems to be
an established fact practically that
man who can command couple Of
thousand dollars and some family in
luence and backing can commit any
kind of assassination without fear of
serious consequences, so far as the law
is concerned.
1T is partly the fault of the law it
self, which in its excessive tenderness
for the rights and safety of the citizens
gives the defense every advantage. 1t
is partly the fault of the criminal sec
ton of the judicial system, which is
