CHARACTER.

la this day, when the individual
seems swallowed up in the vast COM
hiuations of every kind and .deScrip-

The standpat policy of the Republi-
can party received a severe shock when
a committee representing thirty thouS-
and business men Of Massachusetts,
at a recent meeting in Boston,, undn-
emously adopted resolutions demand
ing reciprocity with Canada. The
manufacturers and business interests
of this country are already in revolt
against the bold stand taken by the
Republicans. Senator Lodge publicly
affirmed that reciprocity is a Demo
crat policy, and that no good Repub-
lican could advocate it and weather
the political tempest.

For q Hundred Years.

For a hundred years OF more Witch
Hazel has been recognized as a supe-
rior remedy, but it remained for E. c..
Dewitt & Co. of Chicago, to discover
how to combine the virtues of Witch
Hazel with other antiSeptics, in the
form of a Salve. DeWitt'S Witch Ha-
eel Salve is the best Salve in the world
for sores, cuts, burns, bruises and piles.
The high standing Of this Salve has
given rise to counterfeits, and the
public is advised to look for the name,

no other. Sold by The Second Glass

A LABOR FAMINE.

The New Orleans Picayune arrest
w opposes the proposed vagrancy bill
now pending in the Louisiana legiS-
lature. as well it may. The vagrancy
Law enacted by the Mississippi legiSla-
tIre furnishes an object lesson for
Louisiana, and one by which that
state NAV profit, inaSmuch as the Ia
klor famine now threatened through
out this commonwealth is due, in a
measure, to spreading the Vagrancy
law upon our statute books. This law,
which replaces a more sane one, is tne
cumulative result OF the mobOcratlc
campaign waged against the negro IN
9ile mad chase for office before the
primaries last summer. The Sentinel,
the Clarion Ledger. the Jackson News,
and other equally representative party
newspapers of the state, sounded the
warning sufficiently early, but their
wisdom wa needed not. 1t was not
Intimated at that time, but openly an
ra0unced that such an enactment would
work a considerable detriment to the
interests Of the state; that many OF
fle colored laborers would go else
where and in consequence thereof ag-
EIcultural pursuits would be hampefed.
Opposition to the education of the
negro, injected into that somewhat
Exetable campaign, disturbed and dis
oUieted the negro. Subsequent legiS-
sati0n increased this unrest, and when
the vagrancy bill became a law the
condition which then obtained speed
lily developed into a state of demorall-
cation until today prosperous MiSSlS-
sinpi is confronted by a decidedly SER
EesIs problem. Reports come from
various sections of the commonwealth
that negro labor is leaving the state.
From South Mississippi comes
the intelligence that Saw-millS are dis
continuing operations for want OF Ia
EEnr: in the fertile delta thousands OF
acres are said to be uncultivated from
tlle same deplorable cause; domestic
servants are secured with great diff
guilty. which leads to the logical bellet
that unless something is done forth
with to give the necessary relief farm
values will shrink no in~cOnSiderable
I'm many portions, and other interests
will suffer prOportionately.
Many Of those business men n
land owners who were inactive IN d
primaries last year, and thus permit
ted the negro hobby-hOrSe riders to be-
come enthroned in power, already Ia
n1ent their inactivity and acknOWl-
edge their blunder. The negro is un-
aueStionably the most dOcile labor
that Mississippi, OF any other state,
has. or ever will have, and it is sur
prislng that wisdom and patriotism
should have become so inert as to per-
nit this present condition of affairs to
obtain, a condition superinduced in
SEyzae instances by irresponsible office
seekers, whose appeal to prejudice
and passion is now being widely felt.

cross becomes an emblem of murder;
in this mad rushing age-childhood
crowding into youth, youth into man.
hood ere yet the lullaby song of our
mothers has ceased ringing in u ears
feel great hesitancy in suggest
ing a halt, lest we be m~isjudged and
condemned, ever before we are heard.
But may we not rebuke the wretch
ed restleSsneSs of the times; protest
against the mania of rush that char
acterizeS us as a nation? The great
abiding fault with us now is the unit
of measure used in the present times,
by which we arrive at our own worth
and that of our fellow a This is
not the Golden Age, as in the time of
PericleS, when a man was measured
10y his integrity, but it is the age OF
gold, by which glitterihg unit we rise
or fall. We are or are not by this
golden tyrant's fiat. How much mon
ey have you? How much stock in the
vast corporations? How many rail-
roads can you control? What politi-
cal power do you weld? What is your
social standing and reputation? And
you are measured by your answer for
all time.
But are the foregoing the proper
interrogatories by which a man should
be measured? No. Have men been
made better by your fife? Have you
left your impress by worthy deeds on
mankind? Can you look your neigh
Dor square in the face and say, Il owe
thee naught, and have wrought thee
no evil?" Are you a litter in life'S
battle. Are you using the talent given
you, however humble it be? What is
your character? You ara measured
by your answer for all eternity. The
divine fOot-rule for mortal measure is
character: a precious thing, far above
rubies, gold, row or kingdom, and
the work of building it is the grandest
labor on earth. Money is not needful,
power in a worldly sense not neceS-
Sary, liberty, as sweet to us as the
air we breathe, is not essential, e
health may be dispensed with, but
without character we are nothing.
There is no beginning point from
which we can form an estimate.
Which is the greater, Socrates teach
ing in the dirty streets Of Athens or
ArchelOuS' on the throne; DiOnySiuS
in purple and power or Damon at the
block? 1t is a grander thing to be
remembered than to be nObly born:
one is the accident of birth, the other
is the result of labor and constant
effort. Modern ~degeneracy may put
its dollar mark upon you, but the in
fluence can be measured only by dol
lars and cents is not worth the living.
Young man, be true to yourself; build
your character that you may shrink
not from the closer scrutiny of your
fellowman and your God. Their re-
ward will last forever.
