The Monticellonian., 1904-09-01

In this section of the country it was principally the farmers and laboring people who sup ported Davis, in the primary election. and now the other class of our citizens can do much to allay all prejudices by respecting their wishes. Common sense should teach people that they have no right to ask for more than they are willing to accord to others.

Every Democrat tic vote lost in Arkansas is just that much done to injure Judge Parker in his race for President. An increased Democratic vote, in the state elections, will enthuse the Demo- cratic party in its National fight, while decreased vote will greatly depress 1t and make its chances of success that much more doubtful. X Democrat who is not true to his party in one instance cannot be depend cd on in another.

Millionaire 6 Poor Stomach.

The worn out stomach of the over-fed millionaire is often parad ed in the public prints as hor- rible example of the evils attend. ant on the possession of great wealth. But millionaires are not the only ones who are afflicted with bad stomaches. Tbe propor- tion is far greater among the toil. CTS. Dyspepsia and indigestion are rampant among these people. and they suffer far worse tortures than the millionaire nnloss they avail themselves of a standard medicine like Greens August Flower, which has been a favorite household remedy for all stomach troubles for over thirtyflve years. August Flower rousos the torpid liver, thus creating appetite and insuring perfect digestion. It tones and vitalizes the entire sys- tenn and makes life worth living, no matter what your station.

Warren Priestley Dead.
minister.

Last Thursday evening Warren Priest
ley, colored, of West Union, died at his
home there after lingering illness,
covering period of six months or more.
He had been for a number of years
about 25 or 30-the leading barber in
Walhalla and held the respect of all the
white people who knew him. He was
81 years old. For dignity and politencss
of the old ante bellum type, Warren
Pricstley had long been the great model
for the colored men of this section. His
death, while not a surprise to those who
had known him, was the source of regret
on all sides. No colored man in the
county was held in higher esteem.

attention was called to the fact that in
another daily paper yesterday it had
been stated in dispatch from Seneca
that he would resign his position should
Gov. Hayward commute the sentence of
Hoyt Hayes, to be hanged next Friday.
Mr., Boggs denies the rumor. He stated
that when he argued in the Supreme
Court against the motion for new trial
he declared privately that day that
should the Supreme Court sustain the
ruling of Judge Dantzler, he would not
take any further action in the case. He
has not recommended the pardo and
he has made no such statement as that
ascribed to him. Further than this Mr..
Boggs declined to say anything.
