FARM LABOR.

A dispatch from Charlotte, N
c., telling of the scarcity of farm
labor in that section,. says
Things have come to such a pass
that many white mill operatives
are returning to Their former
homes in the country owing to the
big advance in farm labor wages.
There is considerable land lying
idle in this section by reason Of
the scarcity of labor" State
ments like the foregoing ought to
prove of interest to those white
farmers and farm laborers of the
North and West who would like
to come South but have been
frightened by the bughf ar of col
orcd competition.

WHISKY AND MONEY.

Under the rules of the State
Executive Committee, any caDdi-
date who buys votes or aids in
buying votes shall not be nomi-
mated" This is plain language.
The Executive Committee means
what it says, or it doesn't. If
this be strictly enforced, the can
didate who corrupts and debauches
his f6llow-man, by money OF
whisky, is to be debarred from the
"honor" that he seeks to pur-
chase. Every good citizen who
desires to see the purity of the
ballot box preserved, and moral
ity uppermost, should frown
down on such methods. The man
who will so lower his manhood &s
to sell his influence for money or
whisky is unfit to exercise the
franchise, and the ballot, to ex-
press a free mans will, should be
taken away from him.

Rev w. H. Brooks, colored
preacher, gave his race some good
advice in a sermon in New York
the other night. After asserting
that the idea of retaliation was
foolish, he said that what needed
to be done was for the colored peo-
pie to form leagues among them
selves for the purpose of spotting
bad men who bring disgrace upon
the race, driving them out of
respectable society and turning
them over to the law to be dealt
with, If something like that were
done, better feeling would at
once be fostered between the races.
AS it is, the better element of the
colored race too often makes COM
mon cause with the worse element,
shielding as far as possible the
criminals from the consequences
of their crimes. A colored fugi-
tive from Justice is practically
assured of friend and succor at
the first black mans house he
approaches, no matter what his
offense. This sort of thing does
not obtain among the whites
The white criminal is regarded cs
a criminal merely, not as a white
man and brother.

Mr.. James d. Porter, of Nash
VILE, says Tom Watson is mis-
taken that Cleveland didn't invite
Fred Douglas and his wife to a
social function. On the contrary
he says:
"Mr. Watson bias been misled

and his white wife at an official
reception given by the President
to the public This was amour
ced by the press at Washington,
accompanied by statement that
the public and all officials COM
missioned by the President, and
their friends, were invited. No
other invitations were extended

at that time as Recorder of Deeds
for the District of Columbia, sign
ed by President Arthur. Under
the rule, he exercised the right
common to all officials of the class
named. | saw him pass, with his
white wife, in review before the
President and Mrs Cleveland. He

Russia is apprehensive regard
ing the neutrality of China.
Russia feels that China will re-
main neutral as long as Russia
shows herself strong enough to
hold her position in the far east,
but she fears that the moment she
may lose any advantages now held
that China will forget all about
her neutrality promise and join
forces with Japan. This fear is
not altogether groundless. China
has no love for Russia, and if she
sees an opportunity to dislodge
her i'll the east, she will probably
not hesitate to aid Japan.

Consumption is a human

The time to treat consump-

Others see it, you won't.
Don't wait until you can't
deceive yourself any longer.
Begin with the first thought
to take SCOTS Emulsion. If
it isn't really consumption so
much the better; you will soon
forget it and be better for the
