THE APPEAL NOW WANTS JUS
p TicE, AND NOT OFFICES, BUT
4 WHAT BEFORE.
The Press Of John Quincy Adams and
the Pen Of Cyrus Field.
ON "EDIToR ROSS DEFENSE OF
WILSON,"

In recent editorial, The Appeal of
st. Paul says, 1.-THE Appeal believes
that It Is always right to protest
against wrong and Injustice and the
time to protest 10 when the wrong and
injuries are being perpetrated." Yes
that's right, and God grant you may
practice it. But we hope you will be-
gin in the Twin Cities. Negroes are
Segregated and granted Special
Vicious Privileges for their Damnation,
but Editor Adams never has con.
sidered this either a wrong or an in.
Justice. When he boosted CRAP
GAMES and DGAMBLERs
as BUSINESS MEN was this a wrong
against parents and an injustice to our
rising generation. We know these re-
marks referred to Editor Ross and his
defense of Pres. Wilson, but progress
must be made here. If every Negro
Editor, who is clamoring about VIII
sons policy, would undertake to make
better citizens among us, we would
soon have among US men, who would
value their ballot as a weapon Of de-
Tense. Few realize that Negro Dem
ocrats did not elect Pres. Wilson. He
was elected because Taft was NOM
mated by a combine, which bought the
Negro votes. He was forced on the
people as a candidate and they re-
scented, repudiated and annihilated Mr..
Taft. Also may 1t be said that after
The Appeal had run the cut Of the H.
lustrious president during his term, It
never stated the outcome of the cleo
ton, 1. e. his obituary. We are frank
to say and willing to show that the
Negro Black Cabinet, office-holders at
Washington, many of the same being
delegates to the National Convention,
who held the situation in their hands
before they surrendered, without be-
ing honored on single committee,
excepting one on a committee to in
form Mr.. Taft of his stolen nomina-
ton. Cyrus Field Adams of The Ap-
peal once wanted office more than
justice. Did he protest against Taft's
Southern Policy, or did he sin by
We know that these articles
in the Appeal are copy of Brother
Cyrus. Editor J. @. Adams will never
make enemies by directed attacks at
any one, and for that we often censure
him. Had office-holding Negroes de-
justice, instead of jobs follow
ing the good advice Of Editor Trotter,
they would have fought for principle
and that time was while Taft was
president After all nunc pro tune es-
says and historical lectures are futile.
Negroes must accept the Wilson Ad-
protests, and petitions
have been presented, and things may
remain the same. AS a supporter of
Roosevelt The Twin City Star helped
and we are glad he is elected
The Negro must face this crisis; the
the better. It Is the record of
the Southern Democrats before the
world The Negro will be
benefited more than as heretofore,
while he was a political slave of the
party, overseered by the
Big Negroes Of his own blood. We
are now in our darkest hours, but ap-
the dawn Of our political
freedom, and It will come as a Divine
but never by the concerted
efforts of Negroes.

AN OPEN LETTER.

AN OPEN LETTER.
The National Woman's Christian
Temperance Union has launched a
I campaign for National Constitutions
Prohibition in 1890.
We believe in ourselves; but in.
finitely more in the God who said
BE not afraid nor dismayed by rea.
son Of this great multitude; for the
battle is not your but Gods" >E
We realize that it would be dis.
astrous to the race, If in the final tri.
umph of virtue over vice, the church
over the liquor traffic; our women
were found poorly represented in the
great organization of the National
Woman's Christian Temperance
Union, which knows no woman by her
creed or color.
To forestan such calamity, we
are calling for volunteers all over the
Nation.
January I, 1914, has been set apart
as out fast day, on which day all who
are interested in the weIIbeing Of the
race are called upon to unite with us
that there might be great awakening
Of our women to this the opportune
time to fall into line and help save our
race from this vile form Of slavery
which the white mans civilization has
forced upon US.
At our National Convention in AS
bury Park, N. J., in November, Ohio's
colored women led the nation in max
ing great gain Of membership; New
York came next. The whole nation
must rally. The liquor traffic knows
no race, section, nor condition in its
work if evil. WE MUST BE ON
DUTY when the last blow for liberty
of home, race and nation is struck.
Texas will rally for 1000 paid mem
bers. Tennessee and Arkansas 500
each.
Mrs. George e. Haynes, Fisk Uni.
versity, Nashville, Tenn, has been
chosen as our Secretary Of Advisory
Committees of College Work.
b Miss, Mary A. Lynch, Livingston Col
'lege, Salisbury, N. c.. Is Chairman Of
Committee on Press Work.
I eheerfully introduce these capable
earnest women who will help lead our
ranks to- victory over the greatest
enemy we have known since emancipa-
tion..
We believe In, the press as one of
the, greatest means of helping to
establish truth and Justice.
We. believe that our men will rally
to help US as they discover the ear
fnestness Of our hearts set to action.

will give space In your valuable col

DESPOMER OFHOME DESTROYED
By Pistol Bullets from Avenging
Husband and Father.

Greenville. March 12:-Calling En-
NETT Walker from his office at
the Carolina mills this morning
about 10 o'clock, George W Tidwell,
representative of an advertising
agency at Clinton. shook hands with
the young man., pulled a pistol from
his pocket with his left hand and
fired five shots into Walkers body.
Their right hands were clasped as
Tidwell fired and Walker had his left
arm about Tidwell's neck as if to
protect himself.
Tdwell is So years old, while
Walker is but %. The latter has
prominent family connections here.
Little is known of Tidwell.
Tidwell gave out statement this
afternoon in which he stated that he
killed Walker because he and anoth-
er young man of the town had ruin
ed his home. He said both his wife
and daughter were involved. Mrs
Tidwell and the girl were arrested
here last week in a house of bad re-
pute, and Tdwell, hearing of the af-
fair, came here to look for the men
he claimed were responsible for their
going wrong.
Tldwell krove from the mill to the
Sheriff's office and gave himself up.

it. The special value of this grand
laxative tonic is that it is suited to
the needs of every member of the
family. 1t is pleasant-tasting, mild
and non-griping. Unlike harsh phys
les, it works gradually and in very
very brief time the stomach and
bowel muscles are trained to do their
work naturally again, when all medi-
cines can be dispensed with.
You can obtain bottle at any
drug store for fifty cents or one dol

by families who already know its
value. Results are always guaran-
teed or money will be refunded.
Families wishing to try a free

CATARRH OF THE THROAT
Liable to Produce Catarrhal Deafness

tial ,,ss OF hea;ing is apt to be over
looked. : p,rson may lose hall his
hearing before he knows 1t.
For instance, suppose 4 man can
hear his watch four feet from the ear.
II he loses his hearing to the extent
that he can only hear the tick Of his
watch two feet from the ear he may
not suspect it at all. His hearing is
good enough for ordinary purposes.
He goes on without the slightest sus-
picioa that he is losing his hearing.
He may have ringing in the ear, or
cracking and swapping sounds in the
ear, or a feeling of pressure in the
car, but he is not aware that he Is
losing his hearing.
Testing the Hearing.
It is a good thing to test your hear.
ing with a watch. First hold the
watch arainst your ear, then movee1t
gradually away from the ear and see
how far away from the watch you
can actually hear it tick. Try 1t on
the other side and see If both ears
are alike. II you find that you are
unable to hear the watch on both sides
alike and at a distance Of four feet
from the ear, you may know that
deafness has already begun. You
should begin taking Peruna at once.
Gargle the throat with cold. strong
salt water, as directed in the Ills Oh

ment until a cure is effected.
The Best Way to Garsle.
Sometimes catarrh Of the nasal
pharyngeal space will cause an ac-
cumulation of secretions in the throat,
that completely fill the space. Unless
these secretions are promptly re-
moved by frequent gargling polypi
may be formed. Once formed the
polypi or adenoids. as they are some
times called. will require a long time
with the gargling to remove. Ca
Cling according to the proper methec
will sometimes remove polypi or aoe
noids, and no surgical operation !!
required.

is meant by proper gargling send 10;

Peruna must be taken according to
directions on the bottle.
People who object to liquid medi.
eines can now obtain Peruna Tablets.

TO THEIR SORROW
What Happened to a Family Too
Stingy to Take the County Paper.

An exchange gives the following
account of what happened to fam
lily out West who was too stingy to
subscribe for their county paper,
and made a practice of borrowing
that of their neighbors:
we once knew a man who was
too stingy to take the county news
paper in his home town and always
went to borrow his neighbor's paper.
"One evening he sent his son over
to borrow the paper. and while the
son was on the way he ran into
large stand of bees, and in a few
minutes his face looked like a sum-
mer squash.
Hearing the agonized cries of the
son, the father ran to his assistance
and in doing so ran into barbed
wire fence, cutting handful of flesh
from his anatomy and running a
four dollar pair of trousers.
The old cow took advantage off
the hole in the fence, got into the
corn field and killed herself eating
green corn. Hearing the racket the
stingy mans wife ran out of the
house, upsetting four gallon churn
full of cream into basket of kittens.
drowning the whole flock. She slip
ped on the cream and fell down
stairs, breaking her leg and nine
teen dollar set of false teeth. The
baby, left alone, crawled through
the spilled cream into the parlor and
ruined a forty dollar carpet. During
the excitement the daughter eloped
with the hired man, taking the
family savings bank with them"

Here's Quick Relief.
A Simple Remedy to Correct COnSiipd.
ton Before II Becomes Chronic.

Very few people 60 through life
without some time or other being
troubled with constipation. Thou
sands injure themselves by the use
of strong cathartics, salts, mineral
waters, pills and similar things. They
have temporary value in some cases,
it is true, but the good effect is soon
lost, and the more one takes Of them
the less effective they become,
A physic or purgative is seldom
necessary ,and much better and more
permanent results can be obtained
by using scientific remedy like DR.
Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin. 1t does not
hide behind a high sounding name,
but is what it is represented to be, a
mild laxative medicine. 1t is so mild
that thousands of mothers give it to
tiny infants, and yet it is so COM
pounGed, and contains such definite
ingredients that it will have equally
good effect when used by a person
suffering from the worst chronic
constipation. In fact, among the
greatest endorsers of Syrup Pepsin
are elderly people who have suffered
for years and found nothing to ben
eft them until they took Syrup Pep
sin.
1t is a fact that millions of fami-
lies have DR. CaldwellsSyf Pepsin
constantly in the house, homes like
those of Mr. H w Fenstermaker,

wonderful results from the use of DR.

UNIQUE BIG GAME HUNT.
Escaped Circus Elephant Killed
Near HarfSV1lle.

Hartsville, March l2:-South Car
olina's we'll established record for
big game shooting was broken last
night when the biggest animal to be
dispatched in this county in its his
tory fell before the onslaught of a
large party of we'll armed men. An
exceedingly robust female elephant
was the victim of the attack by citi-
zens of the community armed with
guns and other weapons.
The hunt and execution occurred
about eight miles from Hartsville
near the residence of c c Winburn.
The mammal was killed about 9
o'clock, after more than 100 shots
had been fired into her body.
The most violent excitement fol-
lowed the announcement that a
member of the jungle'sroyalty was at
large in the neighborhood. Wild ru-
mors spread telling of damage done
by the big beast, and as they travel
ed they grew. Investigation indi-
Gates that no damage resulted for
any but the unfortunate animal.
News of the chase and death of
the animal was brought to Harts-
vile by residents of the town who
had viewed the remains.
The elephant is supposed to have
escaped from a circus during train
wreck. The animal was first seen
near the tracks of the Seaboard Air
Line railway. The pursuers and de-
tenders of the country's safety have
not learned the name of the beast,
nor is information of her history
available at this time.
