Harmless Amusement.

Many persons with refined minds
are apt to depreciate happiness, espe-

speaking, it is the one thing worth
having. and low or high, if it does no
mischief. is better than the most spir.

DEMOCRATIC ANNOUNCEMENTS:
WeakenS Both Races.

Referring to the vicissitudes
of the anti-miscegenatiOn bill in
the state legislature, the follow
ing is worth quoting:
1T is impossible for the Arena
Club to comprehend how intelli-
gent men who read history can
help seeing the Importance of
this measure, for wherever the
dominant race mingleS it's blood
with that of an inferior race, it
acts to the detriment of both,
resulting in the higher race be-
ing lowered and it's progeny
mongrefized. AS an Illustration
of that fact, look at South Ameri-
ca. There the Spanish race be-
came mixed with the Indians
and negroes. Why did not the
Spanish hold this country when
they were once so powerful?
Why did not the French hold
their possessions in Canada?
In both cases it was because
these people mixed their blood
with that of their racial inferi-
Ors. The progeny of the mixed
races inherit the physical, moral
and mental weaknesses of both
races, but none Of their
strength"
