It is What the Reader Has
 Long Sought.

People will read advertisements about cures made by medicine. As they read they wonder if the statements are true. If true, was the relief temporary or per pament? Read this case about Doan's Kidney Pills:
 W. H. Carke, of Bennett Street, ac- countant at the Bloch Bros. Tobacco Works, Wheeling. w. Va, says: If my back aches I know what will cure it, Deans Kidney Pills. They are the best remedy I ever came across. For months I was plagued with backache, not sharp pains, but a dull aching all the time, that made me feel miserable. I got med icine on different occasions from doe tors, and 1t seemed to relieve me for the time, but 1t was soon as bad as ever. Hearing of Doan's Kidney Pills. 1 took a course of the treatment. They cured me and that cure has been lasting. will corroborate this in personal inter- view or in reply to any communication mailed to me-"

NEGRO SUFFRAGE DEAD
IF NOT DEFUNCT, IT IS SOUND.
 LY SLEEPING.
Decision of United States Supreme Court Will Result in at Least Temporary Abandonment of
 Reapportionment Question.

New Orleans. April 29.-A special to The Times-Democrat from Washington says.
 Yesterdays decision of the United States Supreme Court, refusing to in terfere in the case of an Alabama negro who had been denied the right of regis tration by election officers. continues to excite keen interest here. There Is a general feeling that the action of the Supreme Court means that no furthr at- tempt will be made for the present to call in question the right of the Southern States to restrict negro suffrage as they may see fit. Any further move in be- half of the negro will have to be of a political character. undertaken by the Republicans. It is the belief of good judges that no such move will be made for a long time to come. The disfran- chisement and apportionment questions were fought out in the last Congress, the decision then reached to last until after the next Presidential election. What will then follow Is not now to be said. The time for tackling the ugly problems was when Judge Crumpacker of Indiana and Representative Moody of Massachu- setts and Representative Olmstead of Pennsylvania and a few others called 1t up before several caucuses of Republi- cans of the House.
 These caucuses still are remembered. There was one when a majority was in favor of recommending a bill to reduce the representation in Congress of the States that disfranchise voters (and that might include Massachusetts as well as Mississippi, but the efforts of two men prevented the majority from registering its will. Those two men were Represen- tative Cannon of Illinois and Speaker Henderson. By the time the next caucus met the majority had shifted. Another caucus and reduction of representatio was shelved.
 It is only fair to say that this action could not have been maintained without the sanction of Theodore Roosevelt It me. his tacit approval, Tn fact his avowed approval. The President agreed with the political advisers of MT. Cannons and Mir. Henderson's mind. Judge Crum- packer and his confreres could get no help from the White House and gave up the fight.
 The Republican managers will not it is said, permit the question to come up to vex the party in the next Congress. That Congress will begin its work upon the eve of a Presidential election, and the acts of the first session will be scrutinzed by the voters. It is admitted by all that this Presidential campaign is not to be a walk-over like the last one. It will be contested, and the winner will have at least been aware that he was in a fight.
 The Republican managers do not pro- pose, it is said, to handicap the party in the North and East, with an outbreak of the race question. The mere suggestion of reducing Southern representation, or of taking Federal cognizance in any way of the Southern election questions, would in the opinion of the managers, bring a protest from the Southern Democrats which would alienate thousands of votes from the Republicans.

without means of life." he declared, "the
 body polite is unhealthy"
 He dwelt at length upon the economic
 evolution of society from the savage state to the president "capitalistic re-
 gime." and showed the causes of the ex- fsting economic conditions
 MT. Healey denounced the claim of ev- every American to life, liberty and pur. suit of happiness as farcical under the existing order of things. The government guarantees to no man the means to SUD-
 port life, he said. The chattel slave of
 the old South was better off than the
 wage slave" of today in many respects and both rich and poor are unhappy.
 Continuing he said the Republican Par
 ty stands for the capitalists; the Demo. cratic Party. for the middle class and the Socialist Party for the working class The
 Democratic Party, he declared. was doomed because 1t opposes evolution and
 represents disappearing class. The so- cialist Party, on the other hand, is grow ing. In the last national election 1t boiled
 100000 votes. and the recent municipal
 elections showed an average increase of 2E per cent. In 190S MT. Healey predict ed, the fight would be between the Re publicans and the Socialists. MT. Healey entrusted the efficiency and cheapneSs with which some under takings executed by the government, such
 as the postoffices, were managed. with the way in which certain affairs were car ried on by private corporations, and ar gued that saving in labor would be ef- fected by the inauguration of cooperative effort.
 The speaker closed by discussing the
 nature of capital, asserted that 1t was de- pendent on labor, and showed that So- cialism aimed to exalt man over dollars At the conclusion of the address tho organization of a ''locaI was perfected
 Five citizens signed their names to a pe- tition for a charter from the national body Temporary officers were elected as followe: | c. Maxwell, chairman, and J. w. Woodruff, Secretary.
 One of the officers said 1t was expected that the number of the members of the
 "locaF' would be increased within a short while.
 MT. Healey left last night for North Alabama, where he goes to perfect or ganization among the coal camps of that region. He speaks enthusiastically of the prospects of Socialism in Alabama, and declares that it will soon be potent fac | tor in State politics.

 Last Monday the child labor bill recent ly passed by the Legislature went into enect and, as consequence, a number Of children under age of the requirements of the law were relieved from work in the cotton mills at Lanett. The manage ment supplied their places with negro women. This enraged the white opera lives and in a short time the white op- eratives, about 1,5O0 strong marched out of the mill and refused to work until the negro women were removed. The Super intendent immediately telephoned the sit uation to the private office of the Presi- dent in West Point. Ga.

Here is the case of one Clarence
Peak. Two years ago he was tried at
Knoxville, Tenn. for the murder of a
man, Unidentified as one Hulin, and was
sentenced TO eighteen years in state s
prison. Then Hulin turned up much
alive, but the supreme court of the
state affirmed the sentence, holding
that Peak had killed somebody. Last
week Hulin appeared alive and we'll in
the court room as the chief witness in
habeas corpus proceedings brought to
have Peak liberated. The court how
ever, dismissed the petition, holding
in effect that Silas Hulin is dead to all
intents and purposes and thatthe court
had no legal right to interfere with the
conviction and judgment. Burlington
Free Press.
This does not quite tell the whole
story. 1t was shown beyond doubt
that Peak killed his victim, and that
victim was identified as Hulin. and
Peak was convicted of killing Hulin.
1t now appears though, that the iden-
LITIGATION of the body was wrong and
that it was not Hulin who was killed.
This, however, does not lessen Peaks
crime, and the fact that the name of
his victim remained undiscovered is
no reason for lessening the punish
ment of the guilty man.
