WHAT DO YOU CARE? YOU'VE
GOT YOUR HEALTH.
Great Natures Do Not Despair at Dis.
appointment-They Look for Some
thing Else to Do.

The broad-gauged man of today does
not get blue just because things don't
always come his way unless there is
something the matter with him. If he
falls down on one proposition he i'm
inediately starts to look up another. He
always looks forward and keeps on
hustling. A man with his health and
faculties has plenty of opportunities
and the man who gives up or even feels
IKE it has either a small nature or
some physical weakness.
Dyspepsia certainly puts the best OF
men out of condition for work of any
kind. You cannot blame the dyspeptic
for getting blue. The very nature of
his disease is most depressing and cal
culated to deprive him of ambition,
energy and hope. There is hope for
him, however, certain and sure.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are recos-
nized throughout the length and
breadth of the land as the one cure
that's safe and sure. Their unbounded
popularity-resulting from the thou
sands and thousands Of cures they have
effected, prove beyond the shadow OF
a doubt their greatness as cure.
w heFelII lies tl1elT greatness. III Tic
very fact that they are Natures own
simple remedy. They do the exact
work IN exactly the same way that the
digestive fluids of the stomach do be-
cause they are composed of exactly the
same elements and possess the same
properties. They relieve the weak and
worn out stomach of its burden of
digestion and permit it without let or
hindrance to rest and grow sound and
we'll. The stomach will get we'll quick
enough in its own natural way if it is
let alone. That Is what Stuart's Dys-
pepsia Tablets do. They not only let 1t
alone themselves but make the food
taken into the stomach do the same.
You can satisfy yourself of the truth
of this statement by putting the food
you would eat into a glass jar with
sufficient water and one of Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets. The process of
digestion will be taken up ard carried
out just as the gastric juice and other
digestive fluids would do it. Their ac-
ton is natural and they cause no dis
turbance in the digestive organs. In
fact you forget you have stomach
when they begin to do their work, so
mild and natural is the operation. STU
arts Dyspepsia Tablets are for sale by

recognize the necessity for this new street

AN OUTRAGEOUS LIBEL.
Charlotte Observer 18th.

Charlotte Observer 18th.
One OF the State papers-we cannot
n0n recall which one--~remarked last
week IN reference to the Salisbury
Iynching that if public sentiment there
had opposed it there would have been
no Iypching. Mr.. III. E. G. Bryant,
the staff representative OF The Observ-
err, who spent all of last week in Sails
bury except two nights and a day In
Greensboro, during which time he was
replaced by Mr.. Mcneil, and who
furnished the ample and accurate re-
ports which tho public has read so
eagerly, returned home yesterday. and
recites many details of the week s
events impossible to encompass in his
daily stories. He is of the opinion
that there were not more than a hun
dred men in the mob, few if any OF
these from Salisbury, few from Rowan
county, and these OF a low type. An
Immense throDg gathered in the streets
and swarmed about the Jail, many OF
these merely curious people, many OF
them the best men IN Salisbury who
went in and out among the rioters,
using all OF their persuasive powers in
the effort to dissuade them from their
purpose. 1t has been observed, with
excruciating righteousness, that there
we're 5,00C lynchsrs and one convic-
ton, leaving 1899 lynchers to escape
Justice. A statement Of facts reduces
the ) ZOO to 100 and but handful OF
these were known to the officers OF
Rowan or to the citizens Of Salisbury
who thought they knsw practically all
the peop.e ii the county.
Enough Il-iame has come to Sails.
bury and Rowan county from the tell
ing of the truth. There is no better
town or county IN North Carolina than
these, the county population being
Scotch Irish and Dutch, and it is az
atrocious libel to suggest that they
were IN sympathy with the alien sans
culotte who disgraced them by the
atrocity OF last Monday night.

Editor The CoMMoNWEALTH Il
wish through your paper to warn the
cotton growers Of Halifax county, and
all ever the South, against selling their
cotton now to be delivered at some
future time early III ;he season, and at
prices below the minimum fixed by
the Southern Cotton Association. II
the cotton Is sold now and dumped On
the market early in the fall on future
contracts, the splnners will be supplied
and the balance OF the entire crop will
so into the hands of the spectators
and the price be controlled by them.
Let the cotton farmers OF the South
follow the advice Of the Southern Cot
ton Association and market their cot
ton slowly and good prices will be
maintained.

MOTHER SECRETARY NEED.
ED.

As soon as the charge was made by
a mem Der of the Georgia Legislature
that there had been unfair dealing by
the officers of the Southern Cotton
Association, president Harvie Jordan
asked for an investigation.
The investigation disclosed the fact
that secretary Cheatham had dealt In
cotton futures, and he admitted the
same but said it was not in his own
name but for anather man.
President Jordan's name was exon
grated from every intimatiOn OF any
thing wrong for he had had nothing
to do with any of the deals in futures
Now, secretary Cheatham did the
Southern Cotton Association a great
harm for while be did not deal II
futures tor himself he, In q measure
compromised his position, and thus
brought ill to the great organization o.
which he was secretary. The Associa
ton cannot afford to retain him as it,
secretary any longer, He may moi
have meant wrong or harm in any way
but he was so sadly wanting in discre
ton shat his further connection witt
the Association will work hlndrance
rather than be help. The Associa
ton cannot afford to keep any officer
whose acts will in any way bring re
proach on the organization. Ant
surely for its secretary to deal il
futures for another even, smacks @
insincerity, for which the entire organ
izatlon will suffer.
Another secretary is needed.

GREAT EXCITEMENT AT SAILS
BURY.

Last week THE COMMONWEALTH went
to press day ahead Of time, and so it
gave no account OF the great excite
ment at Salisbury. While those who
read the daily papers have been fully
informed q the whole affair, we give
a hurried account for the benefit OF
oar readers who may not have read
the daily papers.
It VIII be renem bared that about
four weeks ago, farther named Isaac
LrerIy was murdered near Salisbury
with his wife and two children. A bed
10 the house was fired and two girls
sleeping up stairs barely escaped with
their lives.
Six negroes were arrested, charged
with the awful crime, and were carried
to Charlotte Jail for safe keeping. A
special term of Rowan court was ap-
pointed, with Judge Long presiding, to
try the six prisoners charged with the
m urder Of the Lyerlys. The court cor
Yened on Monday OF last week. The
trial of the accused persons was pro-
ceeding orderly, and the motion by
attorneys tor the prisoners tor re-
moval of the case to another county
had been denied.
On Monday night mob said to be
more than thousand strong attacked
the Jail at Salisbury, took thereiron
the six negroes then under trial, and
lynched three of them.
Judge Long, Senator Overman and
others demonstrated with the mob, but
all to no purpose. Even a relative of
the murdered Lyerly family followed
the mob and begged them to let TIE
law take its course and let the prison.
ers be executed according to due pro
cess OF law.
The other three persons charged with
the Lyerly murder, by some means
were not lynched, but were taken back
to Charlotte for safe keeping again.
The defiance to law and the cou,
was so pronounced in the lynching 0
the three negroes who were under tria
that attention was Immediately turned
to the mob. Several arrests were mad.
and Judge Long, with Solicitor Ham
mer, went into the trial of the lynch
ers with determination to vindlcat,
the law and save the name OF the State
George Hall, OF Montgomery county
was at once tried and convicted AM
sentenced to fifteen years in the peni
Tertiary. Two others, Gentle an,
Cress, we're arrested, and Cress was re
} leased under bond of $500 with tt
, plea Of insanity.
Hall took appeal to the Supre;n
court and was sent to the penitentiar
for safe keeping pending the hearin
before the Supreme court. Gentle wa
: also sent to the renitertiary for sal
r keeping until his trial shall come off.
, Thus ended the exciting chapter {
events at Salisbury last week.

20 think that the declaration In the

Ger prevail in North Carolina under
Democratic rule, was ill-timed and
meant little. What had transpired at

not smack OF law and order.
