STRONGER THAN MEAT.
A Judges Opinion of Grape-Nuts.


A gentleman who has acquired a
judicial turn of mind from experience
on the bench out in the Sunflower
State, writes a carefully considered
opinion as to the value of Grape-Nuts
as food. He says:
For the past 5 years Grape Nuts
has been a prominent feature in our
bill of fare.
"The crisp food with the delicious,
nutty flavor has become an indispensa-
BILE necessity in my family's everyday
life.
1T has proved to be most healthful
and beneficial, and has enabled us to
practically abolish pastry and pies
from our table, for the children prefer
Grape-Nuts and do not crave rich and
unwholesome food.
"Grape-Nuts keeps us all in perfect
physical condition-as a preventive Of
disease 1t is beyond value. have been
particularly impressed by the benefi-
cial effects of Grape-Nuts when used
by ladies who are troubled with face

"As to its nutritive qualities, my ex-
perience Is that one small dish Of
Grape-Nuts Is superior to a pound Of
meat for breakfast, which Is an i'm

THE LEADING ISSUE IN MARY.
LAND.

The leading issue in the Maryland
campaign this year will be the adop-
ton of the amendment to the consti-
tuition that will disfranchise the bulk
of the negro voters in"My Maryland"
The people of that State have labored
under great disadvantages from the
big negro vote, not alone because it
is nearly always controlled by the
worst element in the Republican par
ty but also by the fact that in all
ton in the District of Columbia pours
into Baltimore and it is impossible
to prevent the casting of a large nom
resident vote. A conference of the
Senator German in the chair, was held
on Friday night and 'it was determ-
med with marked unanimity that
the negro DISTINGUISHING amendment
will be made the sole issue, that the
negro will be pushed to the front
from the start and that the party
will take no backward step on this
policy" The Baltimore Sun says the
party is in splendid shape, ana adds;
"The county people at the confer
ence, it is said, were all enthusiastic
about the amendment, and those who
come from close or doubtful counties
assured Senator German that the
amendment is the one issue upon
which they can elect their local can
didates next fall. Their people, he
was told, are most earnest over this
question and nothing short of the alb
sOlute and certain elimination of the
negro as a politica1 factor i'm Mary
land will content them. He was
further assured by his county lieuten-
ants that in their sections of the
State the amendment would be sup
ported by hundreds of white Repub-
leans"
From Maryland down the Atlantic
Coast and the Gulf every State has
adopted DISTINGUISHING amendments
except Georgia, where the negroes
seem wholly indifferent to politics,
and there is no necessity there for an
amendment to secure a condition that
exists without it. When Maryland
adopts the amendment there will be
better political conditions in that State
and the solid South" will be free
from the dangers that have menaced
every State in it since 1868.

NO PUNISHMENT TOO SEVERE.

The defects in the jury system can
nearly all be remedied by a strict
compliance with the laws, the eXer-
else of judgment and nerve by the Su-
perior court judges, and sound pub
lie sentiment 1t is too often true,
when a case is being tried in which
one of the parties has plenty of mon
ely, attempts are made to tamper with
the jury. Judge Brown took prompt
steps in such case in Iredell county
some years ago and Judge Long did
likewise in Randolph. Unfortunately,
to wear stripes. 1t seems almost inn
possible to get a corporation tool who
commits crime punished like ordinary
folks. Why?
The Madison County Record tells
of another attempt to influence jurors.
1t says;
while trying the case of Rector
VS.. The Southern Railway Company
it developed that Aleck Buckner, a
witness in the case, had given one
or more jurors a drink of whiskey
before court cOuNeHeu. JuuSG 4NCel
at once ordered Buckner to jail for
contempt of court. Final judge
ment has not as yet been passed. The
court will investigate the matter more
fully"
Commenting on the practice of
treating" jurors, the Record says:
1.-The practise of treating jurors
and witnesses during a court is a
dangerous one and has defeated jus
tice many times in the past Judge
Long gave a few fellows occasion to
remember this at his last court here
while Judge Neal is letting it be
known that his court must not be
monkeyed with. Let the good work
go on
There is need that judges make ex-
amples of men who tamper with jul
rors or who seek to impair the fair
ness of jurors by putting them in ad-
vance of selection, or otherwise, UNI
der obligations to influential liti-
giants.
The only hope is in having fair jul
rors, free to do right, without fear
or favor.

THE WOMEN WHO REMAINED AT
HOME.

For forty years, upon every recurr-
ing Memorial day. the South's elo-
uuent sons have paid tribute to the
valor of the Confederate soldier in
battle and his courage upon his re-
turn to a home of poverty. The
world has resounded with praise of
the heroic Lee-greater in defeat
than wearing the uniform of his coun-
try before he rendered his sword TO
the State of Virginia. The other great
officers who won imperishable fame
have been made immortal in tributes
from comrades in arms. The match
less devotion of the private soldier
has been portrayed and his fortitude
emblazoned upon the pages of history
But few memorial orators have given
a picture of the nonIcombatant South,
the sacrifice of the women at home,
who bore the brunt of the struggle,
without inspiration of martial music
or the companionship of comrades to
relieve the tediousness of the march.
The women suffered in quiet homes,
often with hardly the bare necessi-
ties of life.

prepared by Rev. r. H. Whitaker, ID.

NO WARRANT FOR 1T.

A few days ago the News and OBJ
server published telegram from
Norfolk, containing a statement
by a woman that she was a daughter
of Mr.. r. J. Reynolds, of Winston
Salem. The item would not have APP
peared if the management had given
the matter the consideration it de-
served. Since the publication, which
we seriously regret, investigation has
been made, and we find that there is
no warrant for the statement made
by this woman. whose character is
such that no statement of hers is
entitled to any confidence.
This paper tries to be careful in it's
publications, but in the haste incident
to getting out a daily newspaper, it
sometimes does itself and some good
man a wrong by inadvertence, as in
this instance. There was no warrant
for the story that reflected upon Mr..
Reynolds and we deeply regret the
publication.

AT ASHEVILLE THIS WEEK.

One of the most important religious
gatherings ever held in North Caro-
lima will begin at Asheville on We'd
nesday of this week and continue un-
til Sunday. 1t is a Missionary Confer
ence conducted by three conferences
of the Southern Methodist church. 1t
is expected that nearly all the bishops
with two thousand delegates will be
in attendance. There will be addresses
by the bishops and by returned mis-
sionaries from all portions of the
world
The mission work of the Christian
churches is the most distinguishing
characteristic of the church of this
era. Go into all the world and
preach the gospel is the command
which the church has heard and is
needing. Millions of money and thou
sands of men and women have been
dedicated to this great work-great
not only in the sense that it is carrying
the news of a saving religion to those
who sit in darkness, but also be-
cause it is the forerunner of civiliza-
ton and commerce.
The mountain metropolis will give
glad welcome to the earnest men and
women who will gather at Asheville
to learn more of the work in the mis-
sion field and to gather inspiration to
do more to send the gospel to the ut
termost parts of the earth.
