A Certain Cure for Group.

LET IT COME, IT MAY BE BEST.

The next congress which will
convene on March 4th will have
before it the matter of cutting
down the representation Of the
South in congress and also in
the electoral college. So far as
the South's representation in
the electoral college is con-
cerned, it would not matter in
the least were congress to cut
it out entirely because the only
effect Of having representation
in the electoral college is to show
up a weak and measly minority
made up entirely of one section,
dominated and controlled by a
handful of swell-headed, over
fed politicians whose political
existence depends upon keeping
the people in political servitude
under party lash welded by
ignorance. But when it comes
to cutting down the representa-
ton in congress. then it becomes
a serious matter, and one which
the people are vitally interested
in.
The South needs representa-
ton, good and strong, q repre-
sentation based upon a broad
craftsmanship, a craftsmanship
which has breadth of mind suf-
hcient to scorn the narrow linn
it's of sectional lines, and that
can grasp ideas which are for the
country's good regardless Of
where they spring from.
We should regret to lose our
numerical strength in congress,
but if we continue sending OBJ
structionists to represent US we
alone are to blame, should the
majority come back at US and
tell US, 'sif you insist upon try
ing to block the wheels Of prog
ress then come with a represen-
tation that you are entitled to
by the number Of voters you per-
NIT to exercise the franchise.
The South is today represented
in congress by voting strength
which includes every negro of
the age Of p years. yet the act
ual voting strength is confined
to white votes. With this con-
dition, it is no wonder the Re
publican party complains Of un-
fairness and wants to put the

HELP THE FARMER.

The Legislature will be in ses-
SION in two weeks, and the two
principle things before it will be
the legislation to comply with
the constitution recently sub
mitted to the voters in a very
botched manner, and the devils
ING of a plan to breathe new lie
into the body of the dying dis.
pensary, and the enactment OF
the appropriation bills: When
these things have been done, ad-
iournment should be in order,
but in our opinion the whole
forty DAYS will be taken up IN
pumping hot air at the rate OF
$1,000 per day, and very little
will be accomplished.
Nearly every politician elected
to the legislature will strive for
leadership, and in this rivalry
a great many speeches will be
made on every measure intro
duced, and thus the time will be
wasted with small results for the
people who pay the piper. The
man who introduces and tights
with might and main a measure
that will kill out this perniclous
system of credit will do much
towards relieving the farmers OF
what is fast becoming a labor
staenation. Make the mortgag-
inc of that which does not exist
a nullity, and reduce the legal
rate of interest, then will those
UPON whom the country must
depend have a fair show in this
mad race for existance, AS 1t IS,
the agricultural interests are de-
pressed largely on account OF a
cheap credit extended to an ele.
ment which should be hewers
of wood and drawers of water,
with the result, that farmer and
merchant are both injured there
by, but wipe out this lien law,
then merit and property will
form a basis of credit, and with
cheaper rate of interest, farm
ers can build up the waste places
of this State.
We realize the uphill work a
legislator would ! have on his
hands We're he to undertake to
reduce the present gouging rate
of interest. such a bill would
have to run the gamut Of the
banks and other capitalists. many
of which are well represented
upon the floors of the Legisla-
tare by their paid attorneys, but
let him enter upon the work and
with persistency push it, and tile
day Will come when the people
will be aroused to their interests,
and drive from the temple the
money-changers. It is high time
in a State made up largely OF
farmers, that some legislation
be done in their interests. The
appropriating Of money for q
farmers college to turn out
mechanics and professions is not
satisfying to the farmers needs,
they want something to effect
their material welfare nearer
home, and the looking after
something which will put labor
in the fields, and make money
cheaper will help vastly.

Straight Facts

A whole lot of fancy phrases can be
written about remedies, but it takes
facts to prove anything-good straight
facts. And the strongest fact you ever
heard is that Tannopiline is the best
cure for piles on the market. 1t cures
absolutely. Has healing, soothing
effect from the start.

There is no possible way to
keep the negro out of our poll
tics, not even with the represen-
tation cut down, unless certain
constitutional amendments are
repealed, and this we have no
hope for, but should our repre-
sentation be reduced we can our
selves regulate our election laws
so that a division among the
whites on governmental ques'
tons need not bring the negro
in as factor, and in course OF
time two strong parties IN the
South may prove a blessing.

When we hold fast, as we've begun.

God calls some chosen souls apart,
For work among their fellowmen.
With lofty purpose fires the heart,
Illumes the mind, or guides the pen.
Far up the shining heights they tread,
But reach strong hands to those
Below:
10 guide them where their feet have
Led,
Above the plains OF sin and woe.
But how shall woman, weak and frall,
With cares without and fears within,
Lift up hand that shall prevail
Against the mighty hosts OF sin?
Out from their ranks came one inspired
To lead them on, a glorious band,
To work with heavenly zeal untlred,
s'For God and home and every land. :"
The strength of love and faith is theirs,
Responding to her rallying cry,
They give their labors and their
Prayers,
To save from sin--Humanitv.
Leader of womankind to thee
The eyes of all thy comrades turn:
Thy hope, thy love, thy charity,
Within their hearts shall live and
Burn.
Thy life shall ever lift their lives
TO labor for the true and good,
The years shall see thy name survive,
Queen of exalted womanhood.

A new bank, a new hotel and a
hospital are terminating this
springtime along with other bud
ding enterprises. Brookhaven is
we'll able to foster any or all of
these things and more; but it
takes some strong -souled purpose
and person, or persons, behind
such projects to bring them into
naturalization. There has been
so much said about "the new no.
tel'', fol instance, that has resulted
so far in a much ado about
nothing that we are inclined
to wait until we see the brick
laid before we further enthuse on
this subject.

Do You Want STRENGTH?

II you want to increase your strength
you must add to and not take from
the physical. In other words, the
food that you eat must be digested,
