Here is one reason the Republicans cuss
the last Legislature:
Revenue Collector Patterson said
revenue officers had about arrived
the conclusion that the Watts Bill
will reduce the force of deputies about
half and that store-keepers and
gaugers would be practically elimin-
ated."
Hurrah for that If it would eliminate
the "red-legged grass hoppcrs" and the
government gougers" altogether it
would be a God-scnd to the good people
of the State. OF course, though, this
will put lot of Radical emissaries out
of employment, and the distillerics. the
Republican recruiting stations" will be
likewise abolished.

Another popular gentleman in another
town. ambitious to be the chief executive
of his town has issued an announcement
that is equally commendable though very
different from Mr.. Woods. 1t is along
the right line in that the candidate de-
fines his position upon local questions
and tells what he will do if elected. 1t
is as follows:
ITO the Democrat of Oxford:
"As announced in a circular letter a

and vote for it this year l believe
that the teachers and superintendent
should be paid promptly at the end of
each month.
II will vote for the bond issue for
water-works.
Il believe in matchmaking the streets
and improving the sidewalks, keeping the
cemeteries in order. honest labor in re-
turn for pay; that public office should
be used for public good. I am opposed to
all jobs and private snaps at the ex-
pense of the public.
"JOHN p. STEDMAN.'
TIL voters know exactly where Mr..
Stedman stands and what to expect if
elected. There IS too much generaliza-
ton upon the part of most candidates.
The declarations consist too often of
glittering generalties and when elected,
If elected, nobody knows what to expect
OF them. The people ought to quit elect
ing men to any office without knowing
that they will be true to their oath OF
office and without requiring of them q
straightforward declaration of their posi-
ton upon the matters with which they
will have Immediately to deal if elected.

TIE FLOP OF MR.. WISE.

Your Southern man who becomes Yam
keeized is always making himself ridicul-
Gus 4 month ago John S. Wise, the
arostate from Virginia, was making him
self busy trying to annul the Virginia
because it eliminated many
gro votes. Now he has 'pentcd his
self and here is his latest declaration;
ut is idle today, to try to enforce laws
permitting bhe negro franchise. You
cannot find white, no matter where
he lives or under what circumstances
when you go to him, who will subscribe
to policy that means eventually a
possible negro domination.
There is only one solution to the
negro question. The nation must re-
cede from the position taken by it on
the matter of negro suffrage. The nation
must remit to the State control of the
suffrage issue This may be great
concession, but is a concession Of sound
common sense"
How much better if Mr.. Wise had made
that utterance in the first instance, in
stead of infaming the negroes and arous-
ing false hopes in their breast. and now
turning around and destroying tho hopes
he has raised! The Virginia papers init
mate that Wise's new views arc due to
the fact that the negroes have quit pass
ing around the hat to pay him big fees
to fight the suffrage amendment. We
rather choose to believe that the glow
of the banquet caused him to give ex-
preston TO his real sentiments-senti-
ments uttered by all Southern men who
arc not crawling on their bellies to get
Federal office.

right. No attempt was made to remove
the gall stones at the first operation,
and on Sunday DR.. Cooney assisted by
DR.. Galley removed the gall stones, the
patient standing the operation in very

covery are. He was in very poor shape
physically to stand the delicate opera
ton that was performed on him, but he
is holding his own and has lighting

An Electric Tree.

There is peculiar tree in the forests
of Central India, which has most cur
ious characteristics. The leaves of the
tree are of a highly sensitive nature
and are SO full of electricity that who.
ever touches one of them receives an
electric shock. It will effect a mag
netic needle at distance of even 70
feet. Birds never approach the tree,
nor are insects ever seen upon it. Its
electrical strength varies according to
the time of day, it being strongest at
midday and weakest at midnight.
With the strength of bread and meat
in liquid form, and being pure and
delicious are the qualities that make
golden grain belt beer the ideal
beverage for table use. Order Of your
