Double Tracking.
The work OF double tracking the Rich
mond, Fredericksburg, and Potomac
Railroad is progressing rapidly. Nearly
a thousand men are In camp near Fred

work on the line is TO be done.

line would be run some distance from
Brooke station, in Stafford county. Jeav-
ing that important station about a half
mile from the railroad. but 1t is now
announced that the line will pass by

Rushing Work.

Rushing Work.
Dispatches from along the line
OF the Western Maryland and
West Virginia Central say that
the Geulds are working hight
and day on the extensions and connec-
lions, so that the Wabash may be able
to reach Baltimore by the first of the
year. as promised General officers are
inspecting the work daily. and the
slightest delay causes something Of a
row. BY working under pressure the
railroad has succeeded In completing
the Durbin extension, and it is said
that by the end of the week the Cherry
Run extension is going TO be in working
order. At this rate. it is more than
probable that the Goulds are going TO
be IN Baltimore as they agreed.

Any person that makes his living
in Brownsville, and spends his
spare time in running down the
town and country, as well as its
people, or tellingthe strangers in
our midst things calculated to pre-
judice them against this section, is
not only very ungrateful, but is a
public enemy whom our people
should invite to take his departure.
Brownsville is long-suffering, but
some day her people will lose
patience, and the long-tongue that
is caught doing these things will
then be sorry he spoke. If you
cannot think OF anything good to
say to strangers abou: the town
that feeds and clothes you, then get
some sticking plaster and glue your
lips together. Verbum sap.

DASTARDLY ACT.
Attempt to Burn John Brito's
Residence.

A dastardly attempt was made
lby some miscreant this morning.
at an early hour, to burn down the
home of John Brito, on Jefferson
street, by setting fire to some rags
under the front part of the house.
Fortunately John discovered the
burning rags before they had ignit-
ed the house, which is small
frame building, and saved his home
from destruction, preventing what
might have been a serious confla-
grafton. The rags were saturated
with oil and some matches were
lying near them, showing that they
had been intentionally and
maliciously ignited.
Mr.. Brito says the place where
he found the burning rags was the
front part of his house, where they
never have any fire. He thinks
some enemy tried to burn his home,
and says that if anyone has Il
grudge against him, they ought
to come to him personally about
1t, and not try such means to
injure him, so as to endapger the
property of his neighbors also.
If the guilty party can be caught,
he should be severely dealt with.
Arson is penitentiary offense, and
fire-bug is very dangerous pub
lie enemy. With the inadequate
means that Brownsville possesses,
an attempt to set fire to a house
here is an even more heinous crime
than usual. The police should
spare no efforts to catch the crimi-
nal.

You may secure the same relief as
Miss Snyder. if you take Wine of Csrdni
as she took It. Thedford's Black
Draught is the companion medicine Of
Wine of Cardui and it is liver and
bowel regulator which assists greatly
in effecting a cure. IL you tako these
medicines according to directions, the
relief and cure is simple. Some eases
are cured quickly and others take longer
because the disease has run longer.
Remember how Miss Snyder took Wine

medicines are offered you to-day.

AS in religion, so in politics. The
Negro is the chief topic OF discussion
the thorn in the side of the white man.
How to put HIM out and how to keep
him out are serious questions. Ar
thur Pue German, a maryland dema-
gOgue, has discovered a plan, and has
applied it with some success in the
State of Maryland recently.
What German is up to does not ap-
pear on the surface but those who
will take the trouble to look beneath
it will discover that his anti-Negro
crusade, which is to be made promi-
nent issue in the Presidential cam
paign next year, has for its object Cd
the uniting of the Democratic party
of the South and of the Nation against
the recognition of the Negroes claim
to citizenship and his right to partici-
pate in the selection of his rulers or
to represent a constituency in Office
as a result OF the free expression of
popular will; CD the election of
Democratic President preferably a. P.
German, of Maryland) committed to
the idea that the three amendments
to the Constitution are not sound in
law, and who will pledge himself and
his creators to so manipulate the Judg-
es of the Supreme Court as to force
a decision that will sound the death
kneIl of Negro citizenship, not only in
the State of Maryland but throughout
the United States.
This is Germans game and aim, and
he is playing it with the desperation
and cunning of a card shak who has
staked his last dollar on game OF
poker.

WIDOW SCOTT SUED.

Mr.. E. R. James is suing Mrs. Nc
Kinsey Scott for $4,000 damages for
alleged breach of contract. Mr.. James
claims that Mrs. Scott made an agree
ment with him in August, 1901, to the
effect that she would give him the un-
dertaking establishment at 432 Second
street southwest and a branch estab-
lishment at 1926 l. street northwest
if he would conduct the business for
her three years free of charge, and that
during that time he was to give her
the proceeds Some misunderstanding
has arisen, hence the lawsuit.

would any but an migrate and a traitor
vote for the German idea? The fight
is on.
The race issue is to be the Shibo-
Ieth of the Democratic party in 1904.

Your house is on fire; will you go to
fetch your neighbor to put it out, or
will you put it out yourself?

There was a sound of revelry by

The Buffalo Club, a new popular
social organization, gave its first en-
tertainment at the True Reformers
Hall, corner Twelfth and U streets,
last Tuesday evening. The gathering
was a large but very select one. 1t
was full dress affair and the young
ladies, as we'll as the young men, Wed
with each other in the beauty and per
fection of their costumes. A close scru-
tiny was kept on Objectionable charac
terS, so that no unpleaSantness or un-
pleasure of the evening. The program
was carefully prepared and was very
unique. The ball proper began at 8
o'clock and the bewithching strains of
Amblers Invincible Orchestra put
everyone present in a dancing mood;
and the light fantastic toe was tripped
until d late hour.
The hall and galleries, which are
cOmmOdlouS and beautifully arranged,
were filled comforta bly, with Washing
toms elite, and the management, with
President J. Madison Jackson at its
head, assisted by an excellent corps
of floor managers, and other officials
are to be congratulated upon the sue
cess of the first entertainment. Ca
terer E. Murray had charge of the buff
fet and everything in the gamut Of
good things was to be had in abund-
ance. To use a hackneyed expression,
the table fairly groaned with the
weight of good things. Everything
went as merry as a marriage bell, un-
til the orchestra in dulcet tones struck

Germans appeal to white prejudice
found a ready response in Maryland
and he won out in a canter. Can he
win out in 1904? This question does
not concern the Republican party; It
does concern the Negro, whose man
hood and citizenship is in jeopardy,
whose political future is threatened
by a Jesuitical politician, than whom
there is none more corrupt or more
unscrupulous this side of the heated
hence The Republican party stands
for the civil and political rights OF
all men, black and white. The Demo
cratic party is against us. This being
true, will the Negro, like a fool, stand
still and wait for the Republican party
to fight his battle, or Will he, like
man, take off his coat and go at these
rebel devils in good earnest and fight
them to a standstill at the polls, as he
can with intelligent organization in
the States where the German propa-
ganda has not yet been introduced We
all understand the animus which un-
derlies the German campaign against
the present administration. Its activ-
ity and intensity are a confession OF
fear that if Mr. Roosevelt is elected
in 1904. Negroes will enjoy political
rights and privileges which are now
denied them in many southern States.
