ASTHMA VANISHES.
So Does Catdrrh, Group. Hay Fever
and Bronchitis.

Hyomei is confidence creator. The
first time you breathe in this powerful
yet soothing, antiseptic air, you will
know that it has marvellous curative
virtues. There is nothing disagree
able about Hyomei. 1t is very pleasant
and prompt remedy for catarrah, colds
asthma, Group, bronchitis, etc.
If your head is so stuffed with mucous
that you cannot breathe particle OF
air through your nostrils, Hyomei will
open them up and give relief in five
minutes.
Why will sensible people suffer longer
why will they wheeze and hawk and
spit and smother, when /. p. Van
Werden will guarantee Hyomei to cure
or money back. $1.00 is all T.. P. Van
Werden asks for complete outfit.
~ have used Hyomei for hay fever,
and can pronounce it the best relief for
this trouble that ever tried or heard
of. l have had this malady for years,
and have doctored and used many
remedies, but Hyomei is far ahead OF
any of the others, and has my hearty
endorsement Mrs. NJ. S. Martin, Cas-.

START SHAFT JUNE IsT.
GAINESVILLE Elated over News that
Coal Shaft will be Sunk.

1t now seems no doubt that GAINESVILLE
is square in the the middle of the uni
verse, and is destined to become a
thrifty and populous city in the next
few wears says the last issue of the
GAINESVILLE News.
Every move which the company
makes serves to confirm their oft re-
peated statements that they are on the
level in their dealings with our people,
and that actual development will begin
as soon as arrangements for the tremen-
dous undertaking can be completed.
We have held the opinion from the be.
ginning of the prospecting here that
the company were investors seeking
safe investment for their funds, and not
spectators, and it now appears that
this opinion is correct.
A meeting of the stockholders has
been called to meet in the offices of the
company in Norristown, Pa, Monday,
April 18th for the purpose of voting
funds and completing plans for the
work. We understand the first appro-
priation will be not less than 100000,
and may be twice that amount.
Our information is to the effect that
the money voted will be for immediate
use, and that they expect to begin work
on the shaft by June LIST. Confirmatory
of this is the fact that G. f. Fransham
& Son, lumber dealers of this city, have
made an estimate of the cost of the
lumber for the shaft. This will be a
nice contract consisting of about
100000 feet, and we hope they will land
it. Owing to the length of timbers Of
great part of this order Mr.. Fransham
had to figure with mills in the south. 1t
will require train of Is to IS cars to
bring it here. Mr.. Fransham's figures
! have been submitted to the company
and he expects to hear from them soon
after the meeting next week.
DERRICK TO BE MOVED.
The derrick at the Murphy we'll is to
be moved to this vicinity and another
deep we'll drilled in the near future.
The derrick would have been moved
before now, but until very recently the
,, roads have been so bad that it was i'm
possible. One of the employees who
worked at the Murphy we'll has been
retained to work at the new we'll.
LAST CORE HOLE NEARLY DOM.
Brown & Reeves, drillers who have
been drilling some test holes for the
company, have about finished the last
test hole for coal that will be drilled at
least in this block. We have not heard
what this hole shows, but it certainly
is not much different to other holes in
that neighborhood. The showing from
the other holes showed big veins of the
finest coal.
THE FRANCHISE.
The franchises which the company
will ask of the city are being prepared
by the company's attorneys, and Mr..
Althouse will probably bring them with
him when he comes. A committee ap-
pointed at recent meeting of the
Commercial Club to ascertain what
surrounding towns are paying for water,
light, and heat, have their report ready
so that the city council and the people
may know whether the prices Of the
company are excessive or not. Mr..
Althouse writes that they will be con-
siderahly lower than standard rates.

GAINESVILLE BOOMING.

GAINESVILLE is booming. Our enterpris-
ing merchants have stocks that COM
pare favorably with any county seat,
and are reaching out for trade as never
before as our advertising columns will
testify. Farm land and city property
find ready sale at high prices. Sew
eral residences and business houses
will be erected this summer, and these
will furnish plenty of work. The year
1909 certainly will be the most active
and prosperous one in the history of
the town.

THE NEGRO PROBLEM.
As Presented by Prominent Citizen Of
Georgia.

1SOtbAds
Declaring that the only practical way
to attain progress in the solution Of the
negro problem lies in the employment
OF methods that reach the individual me-
gro, Judge Samuel 3. Adams Of Savan.
nah delivered in that city recently a
strong address on general phases Of the
subject, upon the occasion Of a rally in
behalf Of the Morris Brown college Of
Atlanta.
Judge Adams dwelt particularly on a
feature frequently reiterated By the con
stitution, when he said that the issue
could not be approached from any ave
nue. that did not comprehend Christian
principles and Christian teachings Be-
! lief in the "fatherhood Of God and the
brotherhood Of man. he said, would be
apt to display itself IN our attitude
toward the negro as a human being for
whose material and spiritual salvation
the dominant race was to a controlling
degree responsible.
A fundamental aspect emphasized BY
Judge Adams, as follow, was 10 the ef
feet that even ignoring the philanthropic
element and the matter Of moral obliea
ton, the dictates Of self.interest should
incl the white man 70 observe fairness
in his dealings with the negro:
IF ! were wholly indifferent to the
fate Of the negroes and solely concerned
with that Of the white race, | would, on
selfish as well as on higher grounds. op.
pose every form Of injustice to the negro
race. The reflex action Of injustice "a
essentially detsrioratiug. It lowers the
race, or man, guilty Of injustice. retards
real advancement, and secures and mer-
its the condemnation Of the enlightened
public sentiment Of the world he is no
real friends Of either race who. a. a
demagoc, anxious for votes, exploits tn.
negro and feeds a race prejudice, who
denies him his rights, d. who shuts the
door Of hope in his face lie Is no real
friend Of either race who tries To make
the negro believe that all white men are
his enemies and his oppressors that he
possesses virtue which he does not have,
or that there is any hope for his real
advancement save on lines Of virtue, so-
briefly, intelligence and thrift
The speaker concluded his address
with the statement that II was difficult
to, be patient with the southerner who
befogged the problem by holding up the
negro as incapable Of progress in the
mass.
It is only by comparing the forlorn
status Of the negro when first brought
TO this country with his Advancement
as a racial unit to-day. that Judge Adj
pms believes we can truly measure Ills
possibilities for ultimate Development
