Never Be Dominated

mo matter what the people may do
or say the white race in the south
never will be dominated by the negro,
and l want to tell you now that if some
states should ever make an attempt to
save South Carolina we will show them
in their fanGticism that we will make
it red before we make 1t black.
God Almighty made the Caucasian
of better clay than the Mongolian or
the African or any other race. The
Ethiopian is the burden carrier. He
has done absolutely nothing for history
nor has he ever achieved anything of
great importance. There are no great
men among the race. Yet this people
has been picked out by the fanatics of
Of citizenship and the rights of suff-
rage.
mo doubt many OF us have listened
to the oratory of the greatest colored
man of this country, Booker Washing
ton. He had a white father, however,
and out of that fathers brains and his
character he has gotten his qualities"
5Iames the North
. Senator Tillman then told his audi
ence of the attacks on white women by
negroes I'm the south and declared that
the people OF the north were in a great
measure responsible for this state of
affairs.
In conclusion Senator Tillman said;
"As a general illustration of the in
Justice that Is sometimes done President
Roosevelt discharged three companies
of colored soldiers without court mar
tial. and in doing this he punished in
nocent men for the crime OF few. He
transcended the authority of the law
an dhe ought not to have done it,"

The celebrated authoress, so highly

says on pages 103 and AS Of her
popular work, Ewes Daughters; or
Common Sense for Maid, Wife and
Mother:
For the aching back-should it be
slow in recovering its normal strength
an Allcocks Plaster is an excellent
comforter, combining the sensation Of
the sustained pressure of strong
warm hand with certain tonic qualities
developed in the wearing. 1t should
be kept over the seat Of uneasiness
for several days-in obstinate cases
for perhaps a fortnight"
For pain in the back wear an All
cocks raster constantly, renewing as
it wears OIL. This is an invaluable
support when the weight on the small
of the back becomes heavy and the

John Mitchell Orders FernIe strikers

ing telegram has been received from
sonn Mitchell, president of the United
mine workers of America, from Min
neapolis, dated today:
Agreement made by Burke recog-

This finally settles the question de-
spite the fact that the district and To-
cal officers of the union, with their
following, amounting to about 25 per
cent OF the local union, were unwilling
to accept the settlement made by MT
Burke.

cent OF the members of the Fernie

result of Messrs. Sherman and Pat

There is nothing now for the NAL
contents to do but obey the instruc
lions of President Mitchell and apply
for places in the mine. This ends a
