Mr.. William +. Steese. 70I Coburn ST.,

"I have been troubled for several

The above is an oft-repeated story.
Troubled for years with chronic ca
tsTrh. Tried different remedies and
doctorp to no avail. Peruna was ad-
vised ! friends. Instant relief expe-
rtenced. Great gratitude to Peruna
expressed. This, in brief, is a story
that Is repeated to Us great many
times every year.
No one could be in touch with our
vast correspondence for one month
without being impressed with the sim
cerity and truthfulness of these kind of
testimonials.

stomach difficulties that have resisted

The Vardaman Idea.

The Vardaman idea found ex-
preston in the decision of Justice
Dutro Of the su preme court of New
York when he set aside a verdict
of $500 damage awarded a negro,
G. w. Griffin, for false arrest.
While the negro was wrongly ap-
pretended, Justice DutrO held that
negro's sensibilities could not
suffer to the extent of such damage
and reduced the finding to $500.
In Judge Dutro's opinion that
amount is the maximum damage
for a negro's sense of shame or
humiliation. This opinion coming
from a northern court is peculiarly
significant since it recognizes those
qualities which the creator has set
betwixt the white and the cOlOred
race, making the white intellect
ual and moral attributes superior
to the black. The people of the
South have always made this dis
tinction and the wisdom of making
it even more pronounced has been
stressed in most emphatic utter
ances of such men as Tillman.
Vardaman and others. The idea
is gradually eating its way into the
comprehension of the people North
and East, not because taught by
such men as those mentioned above,
but because it is being manifested
in the character of the negro who
has made his home in those sec
tions. The expression OF the idea
in a superior northern court gives
it weight of a principle fixed in the
equity of Jurisprudence and
promises to revolutionize the con-
ception Of negro character among
fanatical people North. As be-
tween the negroes North and the
negroes South, the Southern negro
is far superior in qualities of thrift.
honesty and usefulness. He fills
place in the agricultural and man
ual industries of the section admir-
ably adapted to his gifts, energy

Hon. A. J. McLaurin made a
masterful speech on the floor of the
United States Senate. Saturday,
directed in the interest of strict
economy in expenditures of the
government. He urged that the
country throw off the 500. 900, 900
military expenditure and let the
Philippine Islands go. The pas
sage of private pension bills was
strongly opposed and laws favoring
head tax on migrants
were favored. These revenues
should be exacted by the
government, Mr.. McLaurin con-
tended. so as to permit the re-
moval of duties on laborer's tools,
printing presses. bagging and ties.
His speech was an argument
against the iniquitons policy of the
protective tariff and contended that
the Constitution gives authority for
levying customs duties for revenue
only. In debate on constitutional
limitations, Mr. McLaurin is fully
the peer of the lamented George.

He was born in Winston county n.
G. 1915. Moved 10 Mississippi in early
life, lived near Old Athens in Monroe
county until about 1878, he died Feb
ruary the 5th 1909, near Wren in the
5th district. He lived to a good old
ripe age being "a year old. He, up to
two years ago. made his Crop reg
ularly. He was the oldest white man
living in Monroe county. An other
old land mark has passed over the
river, and now rests in the shade un-
der the trees" He was an honorable
up right man and true friend, good
neighbor, a true husband and lovely
father. May his memory ever remain
fresh in the minds of those who had
the pleasure of knowing him. May
the God of Heaven bless those of his
descendants left to mourn for such a
good man. Peace to his memory.
His friend, Marcus A Jones.

The Farmers Union has exerted
a wonderful influence in the matter
of crop growing this year. Reports
from the rural districts evidence
that more attention is being paid
to the cultivation of corn, peas,
potatoes, gardens and the raising
meat than for several years
The spirit has been caught
by many who do not belong to
the order, but the idea has just
soaked in. A more prosperous
mass of producers is sure to result
from the innovation.
