THE saloon makes the colored
race a more dangerous element to
deal with, a positive menance to So
ciety. The negro is here, and has
got to be reckoned with therefore. it
is the duty of every good citizen to
help remove every obstacle that
tends to make his condition worse
and his attitude more dangerous.
A TALK WITH JUDGE PAGE.
One of the principal reasons for my |
going to Princess Anne was to have |
a conversation with Judge Henry
Page. l found that brilliant Mary
land lawyer quite communicative on
the subject of local option. He told
me of the Princess Anne of other
days, when liquor was sold there,
of the reign of drunkenness and dis
orderly conduct that then prevailed,
and Of the Princess Anne of today.
under local option, when drunken
ness Is a rare thing, and disorderly
conduct thing unknown. He dwelt !
upon the great advantage the absence
of the saloon is to any community,
from every standpoint of public and
private good. He said there was abb
soluteiy no argument that could be
made to show that the saloon was
desirable thing on the other hand,
it was undeniably productive of great
evil. " c
He told me Of how he went out /
and worked among the people for |
the success of the movement of how l
he stumped the county for it, and v
was now enjoying its blessings. L
"Was there much opposition to n
he movement" | asked.

POINT Is RAISED IN
CASE OF BACON
Governor Would Appoint to
Vacancy.
BUT QUESTION IS NOW RAISED
AS Whether He Has Such Power
Senator Bacon's Term Ends in
March and Legislature viii Not
Elect Successor Until June.

The talk of an extra session of con-
gress for the purpose of making a new
treaty with Japan has caused Senator
Bacon and the interregnum in his SEN
atorship between March and the as
sembling of the legislature in June to
come in for some interesting discussion
just at present.
Georpia's senior senator is a great
treaty maker.
He takes a hand in the making of
every treaty which comes up before the
senate. Treaties are sort of a ''bug"
with the senator, as the expression is,
4th of next March without Bacon it
will be sad
That Senator Bacon, can, by no
translation of the law, hold his place
as senator in the ime from March 4,
next, the expiration of his present
term, to the time when he shall be
elected by the Georgia legislature next
June, is the claim advanced by men
familiar with the situation.
Senator Bacon and his friends have
thought they had the situation we'll in
hand when they secured the promise
of Gov. Terrell to appoint him senator
to fill out the interim which came as
result of the change of the Legislatures
time of meeting from November to
June.
Senator Bacon doesn't like to talk
about this much.
He and his friends take the position
that if the law does not clearly make it
for the governor to make an appoint
ment in such a case, it is capable of the
construction by which Gov. Terrell's
appointment of him at the expiration
of his present term would be lawful.
member of the Georgia delegation
says there is as much law on one
side of this proposition as on the other,
and he sees no reason why the question
should be raised.

Progressive hen and Women Consider
It a Means to National Temperance.

We have recently published a num-
Der of articles on the food value or
beer, and we believe that sooner or
later beer will be recognized at it's true
tonic effect and high nourishing value.
Noted men and women of this country
are already alive to the situation and
besides Miss Phoebe Cousins and DIR.
Joseph FeiSler of Northwestern Uni
verSity, many others of note give their
endorsement to beer as a means to ma
tional temperance.
Miss Cousins, for a quarter of q CEN
fury the most eminent woman suf-
frage advocate in the West, said in
recent interview: There never will be
a law that will compel prohibition, and
the sensible thing for the Women's
Christian Temperance Union to do is
to aid in the substitution of mild,
nourishing drinks like beer, which sell
dom produces drunkenness. A promi-
ncnt army officer who served in the
Southwest, operated canteens at three
different posts. He made the canteens
50 acceptable to the soldiers, who
found beer satisfying their demands

ACTUALLY CURES CATARRH

So Srong They Sell ltUnder
Guaratee,

1t is one thing to claim, another thing
to back up the claim by a statement
that if 1t is not proven true, there will
be no charge for the service or the
goods.
1t is in this way that Dodson Drug Co.
sell Hyomei, for they have so much
faith in its powers to cure all forms of
catarrh and bronchial troubles, that
they give an absolute, unqualified guar
antee with every outfit that if the rem
edy does not cure, the money will be re-
funded.
Hyomei is based on natures way of
curing catarrh. 1t contains the concen-
trated healing oils and gums otthe pine
woods, prepared in such form that they
can be brought into your own home.
1t gives the health advantages of the
Adirondacks in such form that you can
be cured of catarrh and affections of the
nose, throat and lungs while at home or
at work.
A com plete Hyomei outfit costs but

With Hyomei you can cure catarrh
pleasantly and easily at small expense,
with no risk of the treatment costing a
penny unless it cures.

BEES IN WARFARE.
Two Instances In which the Insec
Were Used as weapons.


Two Instances In which the Insects
Were Used as weapons.
History records two instances in
which bees have been used in warfare
as weapons against besieging forces.
The first is related by Appian OF the
siege of Themtscyra, in Pontus, By Lu-
cullus in his war against Mithridates.
Turrets were brought, up, mounds were
built, and huge mines were made by
the Romans. The people of Themis-
cyra dug open these mines from above
and through the holes cast down upon
the workmen bears and other wild
animals and hives or swarms of bees.
The second instance is recorded in
an Irish manuscript in the Bibliotheque
Royale ut Brussels and tells how the
Danes and Norwegians attacked Ches-
ter, which was defended by HE SaXons
and some Gallic auxiliafes. The Danes
were worsted by Il strata9em, but the
N0rwegians, sheltered by hurdles. tried
to pierce the walls of the town when
''what the Saxons and the Gaeidhil
who were among them did was to
throw down large rocks, by which they
broke down the hurdles OYER their
heads What the others did TO check
this was to place large posts under the
hurdles.
What the Saxons did next was to put
all the beer and water of the town into
the caldrons of the town and boil them
and spill them down upon those who
were under the hurdles, so that their
skins were peeled off. The remedy
which the Lochlans applied to this was
to place hides outside on the hurdles.
What the Saxons did next was to
throw down all the beehiyes in the
town upon the besiegers, which pre-
vented them from moving their hands
or legs from the number Of bees which
stung them. They afterward desisted
and left the city.
