A WORD TO FARM TOILERS.
PAINE'S CELERY
COMPOUND
The Home Friend of the
Farmer and His Family.

After the labors and tolls of the summer time,
and harvesting of crops in the early autumn,
many of our farmers, their wives, daughters,
and sons, find themselves in a condition OF
health demanding careful attention if suffering
is to be avoided later on. Many experience
kidney trouble in some form; with some the
liver is torpid; there is biliousness, nausea, and
vomiting, with loss of appetite and depression
of spirits. Thousands who have been exposed
to cold, damp winds and rains while toiing in
the harvest fields, now feel the twinges OF
terrible rheumatism; others run down by
worry, overwork, and irregular dieting, are
tormented with the pangs of dyspepsia.
To the thousands of run down, sickly, and
half dead men and women in farm homes we
recommend with all honesty and confidence
the workers friend, Paine's Celery Compound,
the only medicine that can quickly and fully
restore strength to the weak body and vigor to
the muscles. Paine's Celery Compound tones
the stomach; it removes poisonous acids from
the blood which cause 1heumatism; it feeds
the weak and diseased nerves and banishes
neuralgia tortures; it purihes the blood and
gives true vitality and life. The use of Paine's
Celery Compound in autumn means the estab-
fishing of perfect physical vigor to Withstand
the rgors of severe winter.

Prejudice Against Color.
Thomasville Charity and Children.

Thomasville Charity and Children.
The prejudice against the colored
race is stronger and much more vio-
lent elsewhere than in the South. We
all know how much more vindictive
and cruel Northern lynchings are
than those that occur in the South.
But there are other sections more re-
mote where the negro stands even
poorer showing than in the Northern
half of our Union. We have been
greatly interested in reading in q
leading magazine an article describ-
ing the question of color in Australia
1t is said there is a growing determi-
nation that Australia shall be kept
Il "white mans country" and that
the introduction of cOlored labor
shall be prevented as far as possible.
The government has taken a hand
in it by paying a bounty amounting
to ten dollars a ton upon sugar
made by white labor. No contract
can be made for carrying of Austria
liam mails with any steamship line
which allows colored man to work
on any of its ships, and measure
has been brought forward by Il gov
eminent official of the Australian
Commonwealth which proposes to
exclude colOred labor even from for
eign ships touching at Australian
ports. Trade unionism is, of course,
at the bottom of all this business;
the trade unions being everywhere
and VIGOROUSLY opposed to compel
ing with colored labor We are in
debted to the Review of Reviews for
this remarkable statement of race
conditions in a foreign country, and
that great magazine adds this SEN
tentious suggestion: Negroes in
the United States who will give some
study to the facts will soon be salts
fled that in most respects the colored
race is far better treated in all parts
OF this country than in Australia or
in South Africa.

IS A CHANGE IN EDUCATIONAL SEN.
TIMENT ABOUT TO SETIN?

We copy from two of our leading
exchanges the following significant
paragraph bearing out what we have
expressed fear Of namely, that the
educational movement in North Car
olina was being overdone. If we
were going to offer Il word of friend
ly admonition to the powers that be
we would say better go slower, gen.
tlemen, and it will last longer:
a contemporary suggests that
there is a revulsiOn in educational
sentiment about to set in in North
Carolina. We can imagine nothing
more deplorable that might take
place than this. The magnificent
labor that has been expended in this
cause is just now beginning to show
fruitage. The enthusiasm is but
penetrating the byways of the State.
A suspension at the fountain head
would now be calamitous. 1t must
aforementioned that the work so far
has been but to arouse the people to
it's Importance The ways and
means are far from having been pro-
vided. Let there be no suggestion of
stopping-MonrOe Journal.
The Raleigh Christian advocate
had an excellent editorial in it's issue
OF last week on the educational stu
alton in North Carolina, in which it
was said that theuppermost thought
in the public mind is that education
is being overdone. 1t would regret
to see the work that is in progress
receive any check, yet would deem
it more unfortunate that our charita-
BILE institutions should sufferin order
that any otherinterest might thrive"

Should Be Shot Down Like a DOG.

Statesville Landmark
1t is not amiss to say a word
about seduction. This very grave
offense against virtue and morality
has grown alarmingly in recent
years. The general public has little
idea of its prevalence. If all the doc
tors in almost any community were
suddenly to go on the stand and re-
veal all their professional secrets
they would so startle the communi-
ties that in many of them great
upheaval would result In former
days the man who betrayed female
virtue, if the woman was respectable
at all and had male relatives who
held woman's virtue as dear as life,
did so at his peril These things
have practically passed away. I'm
fortunately the younger generation
of both sexes have too often loose
manners and alas! too often looser
morals. A woman's name is stained,
her life wrecked. The stain is not
wiped out with blood. The Destroy
er of virtue and the wrecker of homes
is not even cast out of society. SOci-
ETY. is content with casting out the
woman and the man is received with
open arms. He is accounted by him
self and those like him as something
of a hero who can number ruined
lives as a part of his work.
The remedy? The law provides
none. 1t utterly falls down in this
matter. 1t is a dangerous. thing to
advise people to take the law in their
own hands-even when the law fails
but we say, and we say it fully con-
scious of it's serious import-that the
betrayer of an innocent woman
mark the word innocent-should be
shot down like dog wherever he is
found and the man who Furnishes him
should go scot free.
Illuminating as it is to say it, it is
often in such cases the woman is not
always guiltless. When this is so
the extreme remedy mentioned snot
justified. 1t is justified when inno-
cent virtue is betrayed; and in any
case of this kind the law should be
SO severe that the wretch who betrays
women would pause before he would
take the risk.

THE MAN | KNOW | KILLED.


The New Yorker.
Valorous Hart, Of Mosquito Greek,
Was the next old soldier asked to speak.
He did good work in 81,
Both in the charge and con the rum
And we settled back to hear him tell
His reasons for thinking war is hell.
"Dear comrades OF Bel-Harman Post, and
ladies Of the Corps.
/ thank you for the invite and I'm proud to
take the floor;
| was thinking as | set here OF the battles
shat I've fought,
OF the suff rim and the slaughter, and the
sudden, awful thought
Came across me that I've taken very likely
scores of lives
Taken fathers from their children, taken hus-
bands from their wives.
While mad with heat Of battle ! was pump
ing reeking lead,
Not knowing, nc, nor caring, where the bul-
let found its bed.
Now people they will ask us if We really, truly
know
For fact that while a-fghtin' we have ever
killed foe;
But it's rare you'll find a soldier who has
seen, in heat OF strife.
That the bullet he had fired was the one to
take a life.
Now, tonight IN going to tell you though
hate to, boys, ! swan,
That know done my murder; that know
I've killed my man.
Twas when we got our rapping at the fight
of Hatcher's Run;

away my gun
And the rest of my equipment, and proceeded
friends to steer
Just as fast as legs would help me for protec-
ton at the rear.

But ! couldn't shake that Johnny who came
slammin' on behind:
For he had the Georgy stradde and was

And il nothing special busted, was spoke

He was hanging to his rifle. but he didn't
try to shoot,
He seen he had me solid, but | give the
blamed galOot
A standard mile or sech-like and had druv
him iii the list
When stepped upon Etubble, fell and give
my leg twist.
And the tumble sort OF stunned me so | laid
there quite n SPELL
Expectn' that he'd grab Inc; just a-harkn
for his yell
But things stayed calm and quiet SO /
peeked; he laid there sprawled
Bout dozen yards behind me, and he
looked SO queer crawled
Slowly back to recOnnOtre got where
could see his head,
Saw his face was blacks IL stove-pipe, apo
plexy; he was dead.
And l stood and wept above him, stirred
dear comrades, to the peth
With the awful, awful pity for that man I'd
run to DEATH
And my conscience always pricked me, and
my heart with grief is filled,
For there amt 10 question, comrades

Wherefore hear the word of the Lord,

And your covenant with death shall be

North Cardinals vagrancy Law,
Raleigh Progressive Farmer.

Raleigh Progressive Farmer.
The strict enforcement of the new
Georgia law against vagrancy, has
attracted the attention of the entire
South, and has brought the subject
Of vagrancy legislation prominently
before the public. Of course, such
measures are susceptible of abuse,
but within proper bounds they can
be made to accomplish much good.
1t is Scriptural principle that if a
man will not work neither should he
eat. We have also had the maxim
from time immemorial that "an idle
brain is the devils Workshop"
1t is indeed from the idle, rowing
element OF our population that most
of our criminals come, and a law
aimed at this class might do much
to lessen crime
The discussion of the subject has
led to the discovery that North Car
DINA has an anti-vagrancy law.
though until now it has been a dead
letter. Volume 2 of the Code contains
the following sections:
SECTION 1898. Any person going about
from place to place begging or subsisting
on charity, shall be a tramp, and punish.
ed by Imprisonment in the county Jail
not more than six months.
SECTION 1881. Any act OF begging or
vagrancy by any person, unless a well
known object of charity, shall be evidence
that the person committing the same is
a tramp.
SECTION 1884. Any person who may be
able to labor and who has no apparent
means of subsistence, and neglects to
apply himself to some honest occupation
for the support of himself and his family:
Or if any person shall be found spending
his time in dissipation, or gaming, or
sauntering about without employment,
or endeavOring to maintain himself or
his family by any undue or unlawful
means, such person shall be vagrant
and guilty of a misdemeanor, and pun
ished by a fine not exceeding fifty dollars
or by imprisonment not to exceed thirty
days; and the offense shall be cognizable
before Justice of the peace, who may
release the party on his giving recog-
nizance, with or without security for his
industrious and peaceable department
for one year or less from the date thereof,
VI Inlay also impose on MIN the punish
ment not to exceed that above men
toned
1t seems to us that these laws, if
properly enforced, would give us
ample protection against the vagrant
class. And if the officers would apply
them to loafiing dudes in the city, as
well as to idle negroes in the country,
the public would be much benefited

Substitute For the Millennium.
Atlanta Constitution.

AS we have had occasion to point
out before, the good that has result
ed from the enactment of the Calvin
vagrancy law is not measured by the
number OF arrests and convictions
in the court. A good many whom
the authorities believe to be liable to
punishment under the law have been
arrested in different parts of the
State and, the fact being duly chron-
icled, there has been a rush on the
part of Others to escape that fate by
getting busy.
Farmers report sudden awaken
ing of interest on the part of lazy
negroes in the work of the cotton
fields. There has been a notable in
crease in the supply OF this sort of
labor in many sections. And not
only the negroes but large number
OF young white men who have here
tofore been conducting world-owes-
me-a-living existence have expert
enced a change of heart President
Harold Lamb. who is at the head of
the Union Manufacturing Company
at Union Point, throws some inter-
esting light upon the workings of
the law in a letter to the Augusta
Chronicle, in which he says:
In the past | have tried to interest Ger
tain young white men in our little enter
prise in the capacity of operatives, there
by enabling them to furnish their quota
to the support Of their families. They
have tried it for little while and then
discovered that they possessed weak
backs, delicate lungs, etc, not cOnceding
like maladies, however to their parents
or sisters. They have very kindly per-
mltted them to work, taking as their
share prominent positions on the street
corners, coupled with three square meals
per diem
They We're notified few days ago by
the county authorities that they would
either work or be worked. Their mala-
dies have all disappeared, this panacea
has worked like a charm. and find they
have positively fallen in love with their
work. If it will only develop into a
habit with them shouts of praise will ex-
tend along the line of the Georgia until
you might even hear them in your sane
tum.
The idle negroes have all disappeared
and the cotton fields seem all the whittier
from contrast with their dark skins.
MIR. Calvin's 'vagrancy law" is the
best substitute for the millennium yet
found, and we should all rise up and call
him blessed.
1t is Just this result that the gener-
al assembly had in mind when it
passed the new law. The primary
purpose of the author and those who
supported the BILL which means prac-
tically all the members of both
houses, the only differences of opin-
ion being over minor details, was not
to fill the iails and the chaingangs,
but to make the loafers go to work.
