When a person has become discouraged through years of failure to find cure, and finally. perhaps, gives up trying, it is small wonder that he becomes skep- tical. And yet to all who have con- stipation, we would say, "Try just one thing more"
 We wish you would try Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin, a laxative tonic that has been used for a. generation. Thousands are using it; surely some of your friends among the number. You can buy it of any druggist at fifty cents and one dol lar bottle, but better still, send your name and address to Dr. Caldwell for a free sample bottle.

The climbers assembled the peak alleged
by Cook TO be the summit, but il is ten
miles from the topmost point of the
mountain. The RUsk party was unable
to see the flag which the Thomas Lloyd

summit last April and the members are
disinclined to believe the story told by
the Fairbanks expedition.
The party. headed by Prof. II. Parker,
Of New York. and 3. Elmore Brown, of

mountain. This news was brought to
Seward yesterday by W. McDougal, presi

Governor. Sent Troops

a speech before the Brown club at
senator from that district declares that
Mr.. Hoke Smith, while governor sent
troops to Polk county to quell possible
disturbance that might have followed
the arrest of two negroes there.
According to Mr.. Bum, the troops
the Lindale company-were sent without
a request from the sheriff or deputy
sheriff. but at the behest of c. H. Cor
ton, manager of the Aragon cotton mills.
Mr.. Bum purported to draw a parallel
between this act and that OF Governor
Brown in sending troops to quell an al
legged riot at the Durham mines.
According to the affidavit of the dep
uty sheriff, considerable disorder pre-
vailed at Aragon. and. he says, there
seemed to be likelihood Of lynching Mr.
Gorton, who also employed him as spe-
cisl deputy for the mills. came to him
with the announcement that he had al
ready phoned the governor for troops,
and said that they would arrive shortly.
The two girls, however. whom the ne
groes were reported to have assaulted,
failed TO prove anything of serious ma
ture against the negroes, and they were
taken away.
A considerable crowd had gathered,
however, but became quiet after the girls
had failed to establish the guilt of the
negroes.
The deputy adds that after the troops
left, Sheriff Dempsey, Judge T. A IT.
win and Solicitor General Fielder came
to town in a private conveyance. He saws
he didn't call for the governors aid
himself. or ask anyone else to do it, He
concludes with the statement that Mr..
Gorton now lives in Washington, d. C.

BRAINS AND ENERGY WILL
KILL THE BOIL WEEVIL

AUBURN, Ala. July 29.-The lazy
farmer, the shiftless farmer is the espe-
cial prey Of the boil weevil; brains and
energy are the only weapons with which

farmers summer school here today

DR.. Butler as the specific means Of

acterized by practical talks on interesting
phases of farm life, including corn breed
ing and selection, home manufacture of

DRINKING MEN SUPPORT
THE CITY Governments
Aggregate of S41,950,188 Is
Paid by Licensed Drinking
Places In ISL Cities

WASHINGTON, July Slower s4O,000,oOO
in the large cities of the United States
goes to pay license fees.
The extent to which the drinking men
help to pay the expenses of government
in the cities is indicated by a census
report covering the finances of the coun-
try for the year 1908 in the cities having
a population of 10000 or more. There
were al that time 15S of such cities, but
the complete figures were available for
only Isl of them and these figures show
ed that in those places the licensed
drinking places paid an aggregate of
Sal, $50 1SS, This was a gain of almost
s., 200, 600 from the preceding year and of
about 100000 over the year 1905. The
increase was due to the large fees exact
ed by most of the cities.
OF the drinking places sanctioned by
law there are no fewer than 67,1S1 and
this is a decrease within three years of
about 1000 The falling off was due
largely to the fact that a number of
cities went dry" OF the 15S places, "a
had become mo license" cities when the
canvass was made. The change was most
marked in the south Atlantic states and
least in the Rocky Mountain region.
The states claiming the largest number
of saloons to the population were Tex
as, Wisconsin, and New York, while
PENNSYLVANIA, Massachusetts and Ne
braska claimed the smallest number in
proportion to the people to be served"
Galveston had one licensed bar to every
13S of her people; Milwaukee to every
175. In Philadelphia, the freest of largest
cities, there was one drinking place to
only every 75S people. Lincoln, Neb., had
to every 2,oSS.

JAPAN NOT LOOKING FOR f.
WAR WITH UNCLE SAM

CHICAGO, July 3o.-In reply to the
prediction of P. L. Moody, members of
the irrigation congress now in session
here, that japan is preparing Cor war
with the United States, X. Yamasaki, the
Japanese consul at Chicago, has sent
communication to a local paper in which
he says:
THE distinguished speaker seems to
entertain the startling view that conflict
between the United States and Japan is
inevitable. 1 am inclined to doubt his
earnestness. He makes further asser-
tion that the war will surely come within
30 years. He might as well contend that
Japan will capture Chicago before one
can say Jack Robinson
''Since the conclusion of peace with
Russia, Japan has been engaged with re-
newed energy in peaceful development.
Her ambition is to attain Industrial pros
perity and national welfare. 1t Is true
that the Japanese steamers carry part
Of the Pacific trade at present. To con-
troll that trade, is however, the imagin-
alton of the japanese people. The Japan
csc want only legitimate share of the
trade of the Pacific.
NO cloud whatever overshadows the
most cordial relations existing between
the United States and Japan; causes for
war exist only in alarmists' fertile mag
nations

CAROLINA WILL FIGHT
INCREASED COAL RATE

GREENVILLE, s. c.. July 2s.-Informa-
ton reaches this city from Atlanta to the
effect that a committee representing the
South Carolina Cotton Manufacturers as
ISOLATION, while in Atlanta, retained the
law firm of Wimbish & Ellis as leading
counsel to represent the association in
it's fight against the increased coal rate
announced to be put in effect by the
Southern railway August is.
1t Is gathered from the information
received here that the matter of resist
ing the rate advance will be taken into
the United States courts and before the
interstate commerce commission.
The increase in rates only effects South
Carolina.
Messrs. Wimbish & Ellis were both
out of Atlanta Friday when an effort was
made to get a statement from them in
regard to the proposed rate fight. There
was no one in the office of this well
known firm authorized TO make a state
ment and. therefore, no statement as to
what course would be pursued to get
the rate reduced could be secured.

SOUTHERN BEGINS
MOTOR CAR SERVICE

GREENVILLE, 8. c.. July 3o.-Electric
motor car service without the use of troll
ley wires or the third rail attachment
is now being given on the line of the
Southern railway and the Blue Ridge
railway between Greenville and Anderson,
the intermediate territory being perhaps
the most thickly settled milling section
in the south, including the important
points, Piedmont, Pelzer, Williamson.
and Bolton.
Only one motor car is now operated and
two round trips a day are made. Though
a large number of stops are made the
the car has no trouble in making the
schedule time. The car now in use is the
property OF the General Electric compa-
ny and will be used until two cars being
built by that company especially for the
Southern railway, are delivered. The new
cars will provide seats for 81 passen-
gers.
The car is run by electricity generated
by a gasoline engine. The powerful ma
chinery is compactly placed in the for
ward end 1t is easily manipulated and
the car is handled with perfect ease.
The greatest interest is felt through
out this section in the motor car and 1t
is crowded every trip. The first day it
was greeted by great crowds at every
station. At one place a citizen was so
anxious to get view that he left the
BARRIERS chair. running to the station
with his face covered with lather. .
The new service is in addition to the
steam trains run between Greenville and
Anderson and is expected to prove a
great convenience. The operation of
these cars, the first of their kind in the
south, will be watched with great in
terest.
