THE day was when men Of prcmi-
nence hesitated to give their testi-
monials to proprietary medicines
for publication. This remains true to-
day of most proprietary medicines. But
Peruna has become SO justly famous, its
merits are known to SO many people of
high and low stations, that no one hesi-
tates to see his name in print recon-
mending Peruna.
A dignified representative of the Pres
byterian church in the person of Rev.
e. G. Smith does not hesitate to state
publicly that he has used Fesuna in his
family and found it cured when other
remedies failed.
Rev. T.. G. Smith, pastor Of the Presby-
terian church Of Greensboro. Ga,
writes:
"Having used Peruna in my family for
some time it gives me pleasure to testify
to its true worth. My little boy seven
years of age had been suffering for some
time with catarrh Of the lower bowels.
Other remedies had failed, but after
taking two bottles of Peruna the trouble
almost entirely disappeared. For this

OUR LEGISLATURE.
The Bills and Measures Passed in a
Week.
A PEEP AT OUR LAWMAKERS

The Raleigh correspondent to the
Norfolk Pilot compiled the following
from the proceedings OF Wednesday,
28th:
"Ancther immense number CT peti-
tions for temperance legislarlon pro-
cured through anti-saloon organlza-
| tions in various sections of the State
| was presented in both branches of the
legislature.
''1n the Senate bills were introduced
to prevent the sale of liquor in Har-
nett county and to allow Guiliord coun-
ty to vote On a $25O,O0O bond Issue for
road Improvement. The remainder Of
the session was consumed in long dis
cusslon OF the bill allowing Tarboro to
vote on the question of abolsshing the
dispensary there.
"The fight was on the amendments
! reported by the committee to Senator
Gillian s bill, which he objected to, re-
quirlng the vote for the repeal Of the
dispensary law to be by a majority OF
those voting, and for the election to be
held in thirty days instead OF ten days.
as provided in the original bill. Mr..
Gillian named twenty days as com-
promise and appealed to the senate to
stand by him and defeat all amend
ments. He was supported in speeches
by Messrs. Warren, Norris, Woodard,
Crisp and Travis, while Messrs. Lon
don, Brown, White, Mitchell and Lamb
spoke for the amendments. The com
mittee amendments were stricken out
by vote OF 26 to IL and the original

HON. LEE s. oVERMAN
GETS T1E SENAToRSHlP
Won On the Sixty-First Ballot After
a Three Weeks Contest.

Hon. Lee S. OverGan will succeed
Hon. Jeter G. Pritchard in the United
States Senate.
The nomination vas given him on
the sixty-first ballot last night after a
fight extending over period OF three
weeks, in which three of North Caroli-
mas abIest and brightest men have con.
tested for the nigh honor.
When the result OF the sixty-frst
ballot was announced the widest en-
thusiasm broke loose. It was with
difficulty in fact That the report of the
tellers could be heard. The galleries
cheered and screamed and memb bers
mounted chairs waving hats and hand
kerchiefs.
AS soon as order could be restored
sufficiently Tor one mans voice to be
heard above another, Senator Webb, of
Buncomb be, was recognized. He moved
to make the nomination OF Mr.. Over
man unanimous. Governor Doughton
seconded the motion, and the caucus
again went wild. The leaders for the
other candidates were equal to the oc-
casion and enced the fight with the same
good feeling that has characterized it
from the beginning.
The motion to make the nomina-
ton unanimous was adopted with a
whoop and paroemonium broke loose
again. The cheering lasted several
minutes.
On motion of Speaker Gattis COM
mittee was appointed to wait upon Mr..
Overman and the other candidates and
escort them to the hall.
As the next Senator was ushered in
the great assembly rose and loud ap-
plause shook the building. AS he
marched down the aisle mem bers grab
bed him by the hand. He looked the
model Senstor. Dressed in a neat ft-
ting black prince Albert and wearing a
small button hole bouquet, his hand
some face wearing look Of dignity
through which beaneed pleasure and
satisfaction.
Behind Mr.. Overmap came Messrs.
Craig and Watson. As the former
came down the aisle member yelled,
"Three cheers fer Locke Craig" and 1t
was given with hearty good will. Like
enthusiasm greeted Mr.. Watson, the
gallant soldier who has been so strong
a factor in the fight.
When the candidates had been es-
corted to the front the doors were
thrown open and in moment the hall
was packed by dense throng, and
everybody was filled with enthusiasm,
not specially to cheer the nomination
OF Mr.. Oyerman, because the prize fell
to him. It would have been just the
same had it been one OF the other gen
tlemen, tor all are Democrats and wor-
thy Of any honor the State can bestow.
All are capable, loyal and great. All
are loved by North Carolinians and the
success Of either meant signal tor
Democrats to cheer and applaud the
nominee.
Ringing speeches were made by the
candidates, punctuated with applause
at almost every sentence.
A resolution by Mr.. Watts was in
troduced thanking the caucus chair
man, Hon. Geo. l.. Morton, and the
secretaries, Hon. Walter Murphy and
Hon. Fred Carr, for the efficient SER
vices they rendered through the pro-
tracted contest, which was adopted.
