1t is worse than useless to attempt
to cure constipation with cathartic
drugs. Laxatives or cathartics do
much harm. They cause a reaction,
irritate and weaken the bowels and
tend to make constipation more
chronic. Besides their use becomes

Constipation is caused by a weak

West a Dawson Negro

Charles Vests real name was
John Samuels, and he went from
Dawson to Early county good many
years ago, changing his name after
leaving here. The crime for which
he paid the penalty today was the
murder of John K. NewbeTry, mar
shall of the little town of Jakin, last
August. That whole section was
wrought up over the killing of the
officer, and being unable to find
West, who made his escape, in their
rage burned several negro churches
and lodges in Decatur county, and
perhaps shot one or two negroes.
Exaggerated accounts of the mob S
doings were telegraphed all over the
country for several days following
the killing West got away at the
time, it is claimed, by the assistance
of the negro Odd Fellows, and final
ly reached Charleston, S. c. where
he thought himself safe from the
minions of the law. But the large
rewards offered by the state, county
and individuals caused a constant
search for him, and he was finally
located by Sheriff Emanuel of Deca-
tur county and taken to Blakely and
turned over to Sheriff Howell of
Early county.
Hurried to Another Jail.
Knowing the infamed state of
mind of Marshal Newberry's friends
Sheriff Howell sent his prisoner to
the Cuthbert jail, but the appearance
of several Early and Miller county
people on the streets of Cuthbert
created a suspicion that they were
after West, and Judge Worrill had
him sent to the Sumter county jail
for safe-keeping. He was taken to
Blakely from Americas just two
days before his trial, but no. demon
Stration was made against him, al
though there was quite an uneasy
feeling until he had been tried, con-
victed and sentenced. AS no appeal
was taken the people concerned de-
cided to let the law take its course
West was a we'll known negro
preacher in Early and Decatur coun-
ties.
Sims Got Quick Trial.
Will Sims, the other negro who
was hanged, committed the crime for
which he paid the death penalty
while the grand jury was in session,
and the disposition OF his case was
one of the speediest on record, it be-
ing but a few days over a month
since he shot down Freeman Spence,
a young white man who caught him
and his brother one night in the
early part of January burglarizing
the store of Spence's uncle, Joe Free
man, nine miles west of BlakeIy. Van
Sims, brother of the hanged man,
was convicted also of murder, but,
receiving a life sentence recommen-
dation from the jury, is now serving
time in the penitentiary.

Wnson,s Tarin BInlders.


Professor Wilson always has been
careless Of what he said about the
tarin. It is a subject on which he
seems to be badly informed. he made
a speech not long ago in which he at
tackled President Taft for vetoing
the monstrous metal bill. asserting
that If the bill had become a law it
would have greatly cheapened agri-
cultural implements. Apparently the
professor is not aware that agricul-
turaI Implements are already on the
free list when coming from the Uni
ted Kingdom or any other country
that admits slunilar American nipple
ments free; and the duty is only If
teen per cent from any country.
But Professor Wilson repeated the
assertion recently at Williams Grove,
\ J., and probably will keep on stat
ing what is not fact in the belief
that It win be accepted as true. In
the same way he repeats in nearly
every speech that the Payne law in
creased Uhe tariff rates. though that
Is absolutely false. The average
tarin rate was greatly lowered by the
law OF 1909. arr is much lower now
than at any time for over half
century.

Buyine and Selling.

When free traders loudly declared:
II America does not buy OF England,
England win not buy OF America,
William Mckinley answered: There
IS no trade between England and
America" He was right.
This country bought and France
sold, Louisiana; we bought and Spain
sold Florida; we bought and Russia
sold Alaska. But the American re-
public and the British monarchy do
not buy and sell to each other. In
dividuals IN New York buy English
broadcEoth. individuals in London
buy American grain The Americans
who want English goods will buy
them even II our grain market is re-
stricted, and the English buy our
grain because they cannot get their
supply elsewhere on as good terms.
Local pride sometimes enters into
commerce, but the normal tendency
of buying and selling is on the line of
self interest Suppose that we should
make a forty per cent cut in our
,arifr. and admit vast quantities OF
British goods. Suppose that Canada
and Australia could supply the Brit
fsh grain market at lower cost than
we. Does any one believe that the
British grain merchants would pay
us a shilling more just because we
were good customers?
Even among individuals there is
far less mutual buying and selling
than in free trade literature. A

- - RecalI.

Rock Island, H.. has had a
Demonstration that the recaH needs
civic morality behind It as much as
the election needs civic morality
and thoughtfuIness. In Rock Island
there was an attempt to recall the
mayor. He may have deserved TO
be recalled, or he may not AS to
that we have no Information. But
when the petitions for the recall
came IN, bearing the necessary num-
her of names. the mayors friends IN
stituted an investigation to discover
that barely a third OF the signatures
were genuine. This. Of course. broke
up the movement to displace the
mayor.
The incident IS proof enough. Il
more proof were needed, that there
Is no virtue IN the recall IN and OF
itself, declares an exchange. In the
hands of honorable men and Of an
intelligent and discriminating citi-
zenship. there might be occasionally
cases in which it would be OF great
value. But with a citizenship Of this
class the probability is mat cleo

recall can be in the hands OF the I'M
