Your Life
Current.

The power that gives you
life and motion is the nerve
force, or nerve fluid, located in
the nerve cells of the brain,
and sent out through the
nerves to the various organs.
If you are tired, nervous,
irritable, cannot sleep; have
headache, feel stuffy, dull and
melancholy, or have neuralgia,
rheumatism, backache, peri
odical pains, indigestion, dys-
pepsia, stomach trouble, or the
kidneys and liver are inactive,
your life-current is weak.

energy-strengthen the nerves.

aspire to heights which he win never
attain, even supposing him to have ca
pacity to attain them, which most
people hereabouts doubt.
But aside from these things the
South has detested that species of by
pocrisy which heretofore has assum-
ed a virtue by making professed So
licitude for the negro pure'y sectio :
al in its character. It has object ID
seriously and bitterly to having the
political debts which Northern poll
ticians owe to the negro paid at the
expense of the people of the South.
We have objected, and we do object,
TO being given negro collectors, mar
shals and postmasters IN Louisiana,
Saith Carolina and Mississippi in or
der to pay debts which the Republi-
can party owes to negroes in Indiana,
Illinois, Ohio, Pennsylvania and New
York. We contend that upon the prin-
ciple of the .'laborer being worthy of
his hire" the States which the ne
groes control politically are the
States in which the bulk of the negro
appointments should be made, and
we have challenged anybody to con-
trovert the soundness of this reason
ing from the standpoint of logic, JUS
| tice, or morals.
The fact that important apo mt
ments in those Northern States in
which the negro holds the balance of
| power have not been given to negroes
heretofore, exposes the hypocrisy aid
the malice of the virtuousN solicitude
with which the Republican party has
forced negro appointments upon the
: South. and persistently excluded the
/ negroes from similar positions in the
/ North. The appointment of Ander-
son is an exception to the rule, which
has heretofore been followed, but
whether it will be the exception
which .only proves the rule in SO far
as the future policy of the President
is concerned. time will tell At any
rate. Senator Plat, of New York, will
now be forced to swallow dose of
the prescription which he had pre-
pared for the South, and the grimaces
that he may make over the dose VIII
be witnessed with sort of grim sat
| isfaction in this section.
While not indorsing the Judgment
of President Roosevelt III making ne
| gro appointments anywhere, yet if he
persists in making such appoint
pointments he cannot do better than
to remove as much as possible of the
offensiveness of his policy by making
it apply to the North also In such
an event we are disposed to believe

The Door Of Hope Ajar

Considerable criticism has been pro-
voked in the North b. The ;.EEcunc-
ed intention of President Roosevelt
of appointing the negro Andersen to
the responsible position of collector
of internal revenue for New York
In the South we have opposed the
appointment upon the grounds which
it is unnecessary to state here.
The politicians of the North
have professed to be utterly
unable to understand why Southern
people should object to negro Office
holding, and they have always stood
strongly by such appointments here.
and insisted in forcing them upon our
people in spite of all our objections
On the principle of trying i: or
the dog we of the South have no OBJ
jections to urge the appointment of
negroes TO Offices in the Northern
States. That the people of that sec
ton of our common country want
to see negroes given public Office
seems to be established by the fact
that they have always been the means
of RAINING negro appointments
down our Threats hence we are I'M
able to appreciate the pains Senator'S
Plat and Depew took to make it
clear that the appointment of Ander-
son was not made upon their advice
or recommendation At the beginning
of the present session of Congress Mr..
Platt, of New York.. introduced a
drastic bill providing for the reduc-
ton of the congressional representa-
ton in the South, because of the al
legged fact that negroes in these
States are not given the political con-
sideration to which the author of the
bill believed them to be entitled.
The South has always had just
reason to complain of the palpably
sectional feature of this negro ap-
pointments to Federal positions. We
! have directed public attention to the
f,ct that ;mnortant nol;tieal positions

THE BENNINGTON INQUIRY.
Only Witnesses Admitted to Hearings
by the Board.

Harrington resumed it's sessions at San
Diego. Cal, yesterday behind closed doors
None but witnesses Is admitted to the
meetings, and no disclosures Of the pro-
ceedinss will be made until the final report
is formulated, and then probably only after
transmission to this city.
It Is understood that a portion OF this re-
port will deal with the alleged shortage OF
officers on the Bennington. to which REFER
ence was made by Commander Young In
letter to Admiral Goodrich three days De-
fore the explosion, in which he said ne
had on the gunboat only four duty officers.
young and inexperienced. which Is likely
to destroy the fine record We have made
for this vessel. and to keep up the standard
must have two more experienced officers
The Bennington is again at anchor In the
stream and most of the men who are lit
for duty have been transferred to the Chi
cago from which. after the return to san
Francisco they will be assigned to the
other vessels in the Pacific squadron.
All of the injured sailors remaining at
Agnew Sanftarium have been removed to
the barracks hospital. where there are
fifty-three of the Bennngton's men. DR..
Brown, surgeon of the Chicago. has been
assigned to the barracks hospital, and DR..
w. A. Horn Of the cruiser Marblehead has
reported for duty on the flagship.
Ever since the accident on board the war
ship the officers of the vessel and those
sent to San Diego by the Navy Depart
ment have been repairing the wrecked ship
for towing to Mare Island. At first 1t was
thought that the Bennington was a total
wreck. but subsequent investigation showed
that the hull was intact. 1t Is now thought
that a few months at the Mare Island navy
yard will suffice for repairs that will put
the gunboat in shape for active service.
She will be equipped with new boilers and
engines and all OF the damaged parts VIII
be replaced.

Passing of Indian Medicine Men.


The skilled professional doctor is one of
the greatest helps to the Indian, and the
Navahos are receiving him with very little
distrust. The savage misapprehension of
things that are new is gradually subsiding.
as results make clear to him that the white
mans medicine is more powerful than his.
But there are exceptions. The purely physi-
cal troubles may be eradicated by the doc
tor. but there still remains. in many cases
mental uncertainty that demands the at
tention of the tribal medicine man. 1t ia
not foible or a fancy that can be over
come by medicine, but mental disease
governed by countless ages of mysticism
which necessftates the occult, undressing
treatment of the old days This, then, is
science of the savage, which. hand in hand
whether barbaric or cultured 1t is as
necessary to the Indian as a certain amount
of mind cure Is essential to our happiness.
The knowledge of modern curative agents
should be impaired to the younger members
of the tribe. They are capable of assimilat-
ing new facts and will take readily to the
new school Civilization is disrupting the
tribal organization to such an extent that
the major portion of the old laws and be-
liefs relating to the cause and cure OF dis
ease will soon be things of the past. With
this essential of the old life gone, the work
of the medicine men will have been fin
ished. At present there must be a certain
cooperation between the modern doctor
who goes among them and the medicine
man of the tribe.
