A Sweet Breath

is a never failing sign of a healthy
stomach. When the breath is bad the
stomach is out of order. There is no
remedy in the world equal to Kodol
Dyspepsia Cure for curing indigestion,
dyspepsia and all stomach disorders
Mrs. Mary S. Crick of White Plains
KY, writes: II have been dyspeptic
for years-tried all kinds of remedies
but continued to grow worse. By the
use Of Kodol I began to improve atonce,
and after taking a few bottles am fully
restored in weight, health and strength
and can eat whatever like. Eodol

feeling of the people along this
line we would suggest that oul

favors the building Of good roads
let it adopt such resolutions as
will cover their wants, and the
representatives at the next ses'
sion will have enacted such laws

The recent agitation of the
race question has given a number
of Northern fanatics an excuse
to question the constitutionallty
of the franchise laws of a mum,
Der of Southern States, and If
they fail to get the courts tc
nullify our franchise laws, they
will make a strong effort to cut
down our representation in Con,
gress. The question of cutting
down our representation has
been in the minds Of some of the
Republican Congressman for
sometime, but as yet it has not
taken a definite shape, however
it will not surprise US to see a
bill in the next Congress looking
to that end. If by cutting down
our representation, it will for,
ever do away with the race ques-
ton, and eliminate from our
politics entirely, the negro vote,
it may prove: a blessing in dis.
guise, for in that event our peo.
will not be forced to submit tC
bossism, and will be able to ex:
ercise the right of ballot as their
judgments dictate. In our pres.
ent condition we are compelled
to exercise the ballot with a, view
to maintaining "whlte suprema.
cy" and often are forced to vote
for men and measures we are
not in accord with, but if the
negro is eliminated we can be
free and independent. There

A disordered stomach may cause no
end of trouble. When the stomach fails
to perform its functions the bowels be-
come deranged, the liver and kidneys
congested, causing numerous diseases,
the most fatal of which are painless and
therefore the more to be dreaded. The
important thing is to restore the stom-
ach and liver to healthy condition,
and for this purpose no better prepara-
ton can be used than Chamberlain S

WE SHOULD HAVE A PLACE.

That South Carolina. should be
well represented at the St. Louis
exposition is no longer a ques-
ton. nearly all of the CONNER
cial bodies in the State have
recognized it's necessity, and
with the aid Of Governor Hey
ward who is taking an active IN
terest, we believe it will be ac-
complished. There is no doubt,
if the resources of this State are
properly advertised it will re-
suit in bringing here capital to
develope the wealth now lying
hidden and dormant, and as a
business proposition, the State
should have a conspicuous place
in the picture, that the invest
ment seeking world will look
upon. The management recog
nize the tobacco culture of this
State as a great attraction, so
much so that it proposes to de-
vote a vast amount of space for
it's exhibition, and the quality
that can be produced upon our
soil should cause our tobacco
growers to take q deep interest
in the exposition.
There are thousands of peo
pie now living in the vigorous
climate of the West. who would
gladly move to such climate as
we have here, did they know
that our soil will produce crops
| at all seasons of the year.
What we need in this State, is
an agricultural class of imml-
grants, people who know how
to till the soil and who will till
it independent of the class Of
labor our farmers depend upon
at present. We have the lands
lin abundance, and we have the
climate. If we take advantage
of the opportunity which the St.
Louis exposition presents by
gathering up the products OF our
Soil, and our industries, show of
the vast amount of wealth lying
in our forests and swamps now
undeveloped, it will attract the
attention of those who are in
touch with home-seekers, and it
viii result in bringing within our
borders a people who will build
up the country. The labor
problem of this State is fast be-
coming serious, year by year our
farmers realize difficulty in get
ting labor; one reason for this is
our system Of credit. A farm
hand who can rent a piece Of
land and get a lien will no longer
work for wages, and frequently
will not make enough to pay his
| lien. What we need is to get a
class of people here who work
themselves. The great West
was made to blossom by lmml-
grants. and we can attract this
class if we will let those people
see what we have to offer as IN
ducements. We hope every
county in the State will take an
active interest in having South
Carolina represented at ST.
Louis. and that Governor Hey
ward with the assistance Of the
chambers of commerce will re-
ceive the encouragement their
commendable efforts to adver-
tise South Carolina merit
