If, instead of kicking about what
does not appear in the newspaper.
some people would write down a few
Items aud hand them in, or at least
call attention to them, the paper
might be that much more newsy. We
cannot impress too strongly upon our
friends and correspondents our desire
to publish all the nesos. And the
newspaper reading public nowadays
look for something more than mere
news" in its journals. The purchase
and sale of commodities are among
the most important events of every-
day life. Therefore the wise .mer-
chant tells the public what he
wants to sell, and there is no bette,
way to convey this information than
by advertising.-S0uthside Sentinel.
The man who can lock the story of
his mishaps and misfortunes safely
away in his own breast, and show to
the world at all times sunny hopeful
disposition, is a real benefactor in
any community. The tendency to
complain when conditions are not
just what we would have them to be
should be checked, and greater effort
put forth to remedy the conditions.
Take our farmer friends for in
stance: among them how often do we
hear complaints Of unfavorable sea-
sons. prolonged droughts, damaging
insects, low prices, etc., all of which
are discouragIng, tits true, but grum-
bling and complaining of which do
no not help matters in the least.
On the other hand, when seasons are
favorable, crops good and prices high
we hear very little of congratulations
and proud boasting. Where one
crop is signal failure and another
a conspicuous success, the point we
are trying to make is that we should
think ard speak little of the former,
and emphasize all the more the lat.

than nothing succeeds like success" !"

A WISE BUSINESS DEAL

Mr.. James Brinkley a prominent farmer
living near Drivers In Nanesmond couptv
died recently while in the prime OF life. ana
MS death illustrates forcibly the importspc,
OF certain precautions in business matter,
that men are often likely TO overlook.
Nearly all business men, and particularly,
men In the busire ess OF farming. have plans 10
hand at all times that others cannot tske mn
on the instant and mature successfully. They
must have time to become familiar with
details, and have really money to cover DELAYS
involved, as well as to continue operations.
Mr. Brinkley could always command money
needed to tide him over emergencies; but for
his estate to do such a thing is entirely n dif-
ferent proposition.
Mr. Brinkley was always active in business
and seldom had large balance in bank. He
Kept his money at work AS a consequence.
when stricken down by death, business losses
would almost certainly have ensued had he
not forseen such difficulties and as prudent
business man prepared for them several years
ago by taking out a policy of life insurance in
the Phoenix Mutual OF Hartford. The money
received frem The Phoenix I'm payment of this
policy was, as Mr. Brinkley foresaw. worth
several times the amount TO his family in the
protection which it afforded its yarfous
interests.
Upon receipt OF request we will send pam
phlet describing Phoenix policies.

candidate for vice-presideutiD in 1908. -
The letter SAYS further:

candidate Tor vice-presidentin in 190S.' y
The letter says further:
"Let not my colored brethen forget
that scene in the Republican Con ven
tlon when beautiful white girl was
placed upon the stage and 10y her side
negro boy. They then placed flags
in their hands and allowed them TO
lead iu the cheering, thus making
the first and grandest example of
the equalty of the races that history
records. In the Democratic Con,
ventlon there was not single colored
man. lt was In word and in deed a
white mans convention of a white
mans party. All hail to Roosevelt,
who has given the poor negro SO
much to encourage him to persist in
his political and socal rights"
The letter contains much more
along the same line, commencing
Roosevelt for having stood for the
social equality of the two races, and
lauding him for his action in lunch
ing with Booker Washington at the
White House. In short, the letter
lauds the President for doing every
thing for which the best whites, North
and South, have condemned him.
Undoubtedly Mr.. Roosevelt is res
ponslole tor the growth and expression
OF such revolving sentiment. 1t is his
attitude on the negro question that
has given utteranoe and force to such
hopes. Is it not the business of this
great country to rise up and defeat
at the polls the instigator and
promulgator of doctrine so fraught
with evil and peril.

BOOKER WASHINGTON FOR VICE,
PRESIDENT In 1908.

Is this the ticket that must be
looked for il Roosevelt is elected
in 1904?
The pernicious and disgusting race
equality ideas that Mr. Roosevelt is
preaching and practicing is already
doing it's evil work, regiving race
animosities and undoing all the good
that has been done since the civil war
to reconcile and bring about a better
feeling between the whites and blacks
of the land. What more striking
illustration of the terrible evil MIR.
Roosevelt is implanting in the minds
of the negro race can be imagined
than the word appended below, being
an extract from an article recently
published in the Washington Post,
written by negro named Henry
Baker, aud in the course of which
the writer says:
elf Roosevelt is elected, it will so
encourage the colored men that we
will demand that Professor Booker
Washington shall be the Republican

DAVID A. HAY
POLITICAL.

Capt. w. ID. Cardwell, the dele
gate from Hanover, has decided to
become candidate for speaker of
the house. He was regarded at the
last session as one Of the ablest rep
resentatives in the body, and his
candidacy will be formidable to S.
Il. Kelly, the Richmond member,
who has been the only avowed candi-
date since the announcement that
Speaker John +. Ryan, of Loudoun,
would not again stand for the honor.
President Roosevelt is at heart a
free trader. 1t would be hard to
lind a tariff refomer among the
Democrats who is as radical in his
views concerning tariff duties as Mr..
Roosevelt was when he wrote the
life of Benton. On page 67 he says:
political economists have pretty
generally agreed that protection is
vicious In theory and harmful in
practice" On page VI he says:
"Ciay's assertions as to what the
Girih nao uOne Tor the West were
unfounded, as Benton showed
In good speech wherein he asserted
with truth that its renewed prosper
ity was its own resources, entirely
independent of Federal aid or legis-
lation." Regarding pension legisla-
ton, against the viciousness of which
Democrats have protested for years,
Mr.. Roosevelt says, on page 259:
at was at this time that bills to
subsidize steamship lines were passed,
and that the enlarging and abuse of
the pension system began, which in
our own day threatens to become
really crying evil. Benton opposed
both sets of measures aud in regard
to the pension matter showed that
he would not let himself, through
any specious plea of exceptional
suffering or need for charity, be led
INTO vicious special legislation, sure
IN the end to bring about the break
ng down of some Of the most
important principles of govern ment."

From Newsboy to Governor.

A correspondent writing in the
Typographical Journal says:
This is the story of young man
-newsboy, printer, editor and gov
ernor, all within twenty-five years.
Several years after the close of the
war between the States at Charleston
S. @. a small red-haired newsbov,
the orphaned son of Irish immi-
grants, was striving desperately for
a living in the almost devasted city
when he drifted into the position Of
"deviP' in a printing office. The
printers union later secured for him
scholarship in a good school, and
there ne obtained his entire academic
education in short while.
His necessities were insistent and
ne finished his apprenticeship. On
receiving his card he went to Colum-
bia, the capital of the State, to work
as Job printer. In the proud States
darkest days-the era of the fight for
white supremacy and the establish
ment OF civilized government-the
young man took a mans full part.
When the battle was over and the
people took heart, the young printer
started out with $50 to 60 into busi-
ness. Locating in a new county
named for the leader in the redemp-
tlon-Hampton-he soon secured
foothold, and since then he has pros
pered. Successfully filing several
(non-politica) positions of honor, he
became State-size and got into
politics.
After creditably filing the high
est place in the gift of his people,
our aureolevthatched printer is again
a private citizen and country editor.
This eminent man is the Hon.

The only and best and surest way
to get start in the world is to do
what you can get to do aud do it the
best you can. DON'T be afraid of
work. Men do not hire you to look
at it. If they wanted to do the
work themselves they would not
hire you. Some people are looking
for a snap. The snaps are all taken.
Don't waste your time looking for
them. Just take an honorable Job
