When You Have a Cold.

The first action when you have cold
should be to relieve the lungs. This is
best accomplished by the free use of Cham
bcrlain's Cough Remedy. This Remedy
liquefies the tough mucus and causes its
expulsion from the air cells of the lungs,
produces free expectoration. and opens
the secretions. A complete cure soon
follows. This remedy will cure IA severe
cold in less time than any other treat
n,cnt and it leaves the system in !. natu-
raj md healthy condition. 1t Counter
acts any tendency towards pnelmuiiia.

Gov. Vardaman, of Mississi1

Gov. Vardaman, of Mississippi,
recently gave expression to some
OF his views anent the race ques-
ton in the South. He very Justly
says that social equality is hid
eous impossibility and that the
Southern whites will not even toll
crate the elevation to Office of the
sons or descendants of the South
ern leaders during the war along
with the political appointment of
negroes to Office. He claims that
politically, as well as socially,
that the negro is not the equal OF
the white man, and it has been
proven that all the education he
has received has not qualified him
properly for the exercise of any
OF the civil rights of the citizen.

Two new States have lust been

Two new States have just been
admitted into the Union, after
much debate in the Congress OF
the United States. Oklahoma and
the Indian Territory constitute one
of the States under a united gov
eminent and New Mexico the
other. In the former, on account
of the large Indian population, the
sale Of liquor is prohibited by Ma
tional law for period Of twenty
one years. Both of the new States,
it is asserted, are to send Repub-
lican representatives to Congress,
which is said to be a condition of
their admission. Alaska and Ari-
iona are the only remaining terri
tories in the Union.

Medringhans, the new Senator

Medringhans, the new Senator
elect from Missouri, in place Of
Senator Cockrell, distinguished
Southern veteran of the civil war,
is one of those Republican zealots
who put up SCI, 900 to carry the
State of Missouri against the
Democrats in the last election.
AS a means of putting a stop to
this sort of decentralization in
national elections, Congress could
do nothing better than to enact
stringen, laws providing for the
severe punishment Of all such Of
tenders.
