WAR AGAIN.
It now looks as if there may be
some more war. The peace com
missioners at Paris have struck a
snag. The American commissioners
demand all the Philippines and the
Spanish commissioners flatly refuse
to give up any of them. The Presi
dent has instructed the American
c onmissioners that there must be no
delay or quibbling—that things must
be brought to a head immediately.
War preparations have been resumed
and orders for discharge of many
regiments have been revoked.
The position of our government in
this matter seems to be that we
must have these undesirable islands
because we are able to force their
relinquishment from a nation already
utterly vanquished. It is not a
question of right, but might. Were
we treating with Russia or Germany
perhaps we would be in a more
judicial frame of mind.
The Spanish commissioners discern
that the American demands savor
strongly of brutality, and being the
representatives of a proud and high
strung people, they decide that
rather than acquiesce in the doctrine
of force they prefer to swallow the
last dregs of inevitable and inexorable
defeat. Spain has dallied and de
layed hoping against hope that some
how in the dispensation of fate some
thing would turn up, some complica
tion would arise, some nation would
interfere. But those hopes have
turned to ashes. With Manila and
Cervera’s fate and Santiago before
their eyes, the great powers are
chary of interferring with the Ameri
can buzzsaw.
And the American backbone is
reinforced in its doctrine of force by
old England, the great exemplar of
that doctrine, who has her guns
shotted and her navies with steam
up, and making no bongs of the fact
♦ i>n. <€...4.7’ ami
Uncle Sam) —will do so and so.
It is all up with once illustrious
Spain. Nemesis is upon her, with
iron claws in her vitals. The bones
of the Moors that have prayed to the
deaf skies for centuries are at last to
be heard. The book of fate is being
opened at those awful pages cf
Pizarro and the Inca, Cortez and
Montezuma. The goblins of the
Inquisition—of the and lhe
thumbscrew- ’ COme from lheir
■ham'’ “ ouse sword point at
-.ie breasts of the children who must
answer for the iniquities of their
fathers. Spain must drink the cup of
her own infernal nostrum. She
must bow her head to the fate of her
own making.
THE FUSION OF THE DEVIL AND THE
WITCH.
During election week North and
South Carolina passed through some
appalling scenes of race hatred and
bloodshed. At Phoenix, S. C., a
fight was started at the polls and a
Democratic election manager was
killed. Then the war began, con
tinuing for several days,*with the re
sult that twelve negroes were killed
and several leading white Repub
licans were badly wounded.
At Wilmington, N. C., 10 negroes
were killed and the Republicans
driven from the city government at
the muzzle of the shotgun. The pent
up Caucasian fury burst all bounds
there on the morning of the election
when the negro newspaper came out
in an article reflecting on white
women. The leading white citizens
held a public meeting and passed a
resolution demanding that the negro
and his newspaper leave the city
within 12 hours. At the end of this
time the colored editor had failed to
respond, and the whites marched in
a body to his oftice, destroyed his
outfit, and burned the building.
The editor bad left town. Then the
killing of objectionable characters
began, resulting in the death of 10
negroes. About this time the Re
publican mayor, aidermen, anil chief
of police were asked to resign, which
they did instanter, and Democrats
took their places.
Th is terrible retribution was the
culmination of long months of out- (
rageous negro domination, in which -
negro constables strode about the 1
state arresting white men and white ’
ladies in the most offensive manner !
possible; in this county and in that i
county negro ordinaries issued mar- 1
riage licenses to the first families of
the land and boasted that there would
be no marriage unless the “nigger
certificate” was recognized; negro j
superintendents (county officials)
worked white men on the public
highways, and boasted of it; negro
( office holders, ignorant, but big
headed, strutted on the streets,
making opportunity to rudely and
offensively yell out to a leading
gentleman to “move onnegro
women of the low’ type pressed
prominently to public places, cursing
and swearing, and depend.ng upon
negro law officers to maintain them
in their indecency, and they were
supported ; negro justices and negro
court officers; insulting beyong en
durance and ignorant beyond ex
cuse, pretended to hold the scales of
justice, always reminding the white
citizen that he should be given the
same showing as “my own color,”
i
the negro; negro rowdies, half
! drunken and loud-mouthed, staggered
* about the streets, jostling ladies,
* brushing down while children and
i spitting out insult and not words;
> orators on the stump told negroes to
put thuir arms about white school
. girls. That is the state of things
I election day dawned on in North
' Carolina.
Do you wonder, then, that white
i supremacy asserted itself, even at
J the muzzle df the shotgun ?
J And all this terrible state of affairs
r was brought about by a fusion of
i those two abhorrent and abnormal
i elements, Republicanism and Pop
s ulism. What other offspring could
f be expected from a union of two
3 such political forces ?
And this reminds us that in that
i same year, 1896, the Democrats of
r North Carolina fused with the Popu
-3 lists on the National ticket.

CANDLER ON THE PROBLEM.
’ Governor Candler transmits to the
’ legislature a timely and decisive
message on the momentous question
* of treasury deficit and taxation. He
embodies in his message the report
of the State Treasury, and in com
ment upon it says :
It will be seen that there will be a
' probable deficit of nearly $85,000 on
the first day of July. In other
f words, the money now in the treasuiy
3 and that to be paid into the treasury
r between now and the last named
date, will lack about $85,000 of being
sufficient to meet the legitimate de
. mands on the treasury for the same
period of time. In this estimate is
not inoluded $400,000 which will be
I due the teachers of the public schools
> on the 20th of July, 1899, for their
I second quarter’s work, for the pay
ment of which no provision has been
1 made.
In this connection it is perhaps my
duty to add that there remain
approved by the pension commis
sioner and unpaid for the want of
funds, pension claims to the aggre
gate amount of about $60,000. It
must be borne in mind that these
deficits are all for the present year.
If the same appropriations are made
for the next year, and the state rate
of taxation remains the same as for
this year, the aggregate amount of
deficit on July 1,1900, will be at least
twice as great as it will be in July,
1899.
Thus the condition that confronts
us is this, we must either reduce ap
propriations or largely increase the
rate of taxation, when it is already
greater than it has ever been in the
history of the state, and when our
people, especially our farmers, upon
whom the burden of taxation largely
falls, are, owing to the unpre
cedentedly low price of their pro
ducts, less able to pay taxes than
they haye ever been in the past.
This is a grave situation, and it be
hooves us to meet it w'ith due regard
alike for the tax payers of the state
and the persons and institutions for
which the state is both legally ard
morally bound to provide.
Caught the Hatchet.
L. F. Finger experienced a painfnl
accident Monday. While doing some
lathing work he struck himself in the
face with the hatched with which he was
driving a large nail. A small artery was
cut, which bled profusely. The blood
was stopped and by the use of court
plaster the wound was held together
without the use of the needle. Within a
few hours from the time of the accident '
Mr. Finger was again wielding the 1
hatchet, but took better care as to the
manner of handling it.

A New Kind of Light.
P. A. Lathem & Son claim the dis
tinction of being the first firm or indi
viduals in the city of Gainesville who
used gas for lighting purposes. They
have put in an automatic generator, and
Tuesday night their market and sausage
factory were brilliantly lighted by gas.
They use the latest improved double jet,
which gives off a particularly bright light.
The gas generated by this improved
process is known as Acetylene gas and
the cost of one light from it is about
one-half cent per hour.
A similar system of gas works are be
ing put in the post-office and will be
complete by to-night.
The Hunt House will also be lighted
by this method within a short time. This
hotel will use 50 lights. All of the
equipments have been ordered and all
except the generator have arrived.
Living High.
Dave Johnson has been in the city this
week looking like a well-fed man. His
son had the good fortune to kill four
wild turkeys last Thursday. They were
large, fine birds and had enough fat on
them to make a bushel of dressing.
That there was a feast at the Johnson
home no one will doubt, and but few
men would enjoy crossing his legs under
a table laden with baked turkey and
turkey dressing better than Mr. Johnson,
whose good lady knows just how to
prepare such dishes.
Tore Up Things.
News has reached the city that a crowd
i of rowdies visited the home of Lydia
I Wiley, a defenseless deaf mute, at Lula
■ last Thursday night, and after staying
. for some time left, and on leaving rocked
I the building and shot the front door full
of bullet holes. It is said that nine young
* men were engaged in this midnight riot,
i but as yet their names are unknown.
Even if they were known it is not
, likely they would be prosecuted, as the
woman is said to be a bad character; still
' the better class of people pronounce it
a most outrageous occurrence.

BANKS HAS A LYNCHING.
A Negro Kills a White Man, and is
Strang Up.
Last Thursday afternoon Will Gober,
colored, came into Homer riding a bicy
cle and carelessly ran over Mr. Samuel
Ayers, an aged citizen. Jasper Ayers,
his sou, reproved the “bully” in tfquiet
way for having run against his aged
father, whereupon the negro began to
show the brute in him and went home
for a pistol.
Mr. Ayers, who was a quiet, peaceable
man, and wishing to avoid further trou
ble with the negro went away, but was
followed and shot twice with a 38 caliber
pistol. He was carried to Dr. O. N.
Harden’s office where everything possi
ble was done to ease his sufferings and
save his life, but it was found impossi
ble, as the ball had passed through bis
body and stomach and death came in a
few hours.
Mr. Ayers was a highly honored and
respected citizen of the town, quiet and
attentive only to affairs of his own.
That night between eleven and twelve
o’clock a posse of between two and three
hundred people from all over the county
marched in a body to the home of Sheriff
Parks and demanded the keys to the jail.
Seeing that resistance would be useless
he handed them over and the cspwd
marched quietly to the jail and hand
cuffed the negro, led him to a large oak
between Dr. O. N. Harden’s office and
the court house where his body was
swung to a limb and riddled with bullets.
After being sure of his death the crowd
disbanded and went quietly away.
The crowd were all mask#A bnLtheir
masks did not hide their deterniTnaitbn.
While being led to the tree the negro
begged all the while for mercy, but noth
ing short of death would satisfy the
crowd -

fident of doing a large business in that

There is more Catarrh in this section of the
country than all other diseases put together,
and until the last few years was supposed to be
incurable. For a great many years doctors pro
nounced it a loeal disease, and prescrioed local
remedies, and by constantly failing to cure with
local treatment, pronounced it incurable. Sci
ence has proven catarrh to be a constitutional
disease, and therefore requires constitutional
treatment. Hall’s Catarrh Cure, manufactured
by F. J. Cheney & Co., Toledo, Ohio, is the only
constitutional cure on the market. It is taken
internally in doses from 10 drops to a teaspoon
ful. It acts directly on the blood and mucous
surfaces of the system. They offer one hundred
dollars for any case it fails to cure.

Making Landscape Beautiful.

to improve the Seminary buildings and

of mei have been engaged in making
improvements and grading the grounds.
This week the first work has been done
towards enclosing the campus since the
old nlank fence was torn away a few
years ago.
The entire grounds will be enclosed by
a hedge of Amoor River Privet, which is
conceded to be the most beautiful and
best of all evergreen hedges. In two
years time a complete hedge will grow
from the plants which will be put out
within the next few days. It is used es?
tensively in government parks, both
north and south, by Vanderbilt in North
Carolina and Flint at Port Tampa. We
are glad that one of these hedges will

to the care and skill with which it is
manufactured by scientific processes
known to the California. Fig Syrup
Co. only, and we wish to impress upon
all the importance of purchasing the
true and original remedy. As the
genuine Syrup of Figs is manufactured
by the California Fig Syrup Co.
only, a knowledge of that fact will
assist one in avoiding the worthless
imitations manufactured by other par
ties. The high standing of the Cali
fornia Fig Syrup Co. with the medi
cal profession, and the satisfaction
which the genuine Syrup of Figs has
given to millions of families, makes
the name of the Company a guaranty
of the excellence of its remedy. It is
far in advance of all other laxatives,
as it acts on the kidneys, liver and
bowels without irritating or weaken

I If You Do, Come to Me.
THE war is over, and we have demonstrated
to the w r orld that our country is the strong
est in the family of nations, that our citi
zens are the best men on earth, and that
American soil is worth* more than that of any
i other portion of the face of the globe.
j I have on hand for sale a part of this glorious
' country, consisting of Farms, Stores. City Resi
j dences, Building Lots, Gold Mines, and, in
short, every kind of Real Estate that a man or
woman may desire for a happy home or a com
fortable living. On account of the stagnation
of business during ’96 and ’97, and as a result of
the war with Spain prices reached their lowest
notch. Prospects are now much brighter, bus
i iness is looking up, and I believe now' is a good
time to invest. 1 can still sell at lowest prices.
I have a large number of Building Lots that
I am selling at low prices and on small pay
ments, putting it in the reach of all to buy. I
have been in this business a long time, many
of you have dealt with me, and I propose to
: continue to act for the interests of beth buyers
I and sellers. I ask ail who desire to buy, or
, have property they want to sell, to call on me
or write to me. I will benefit you either way.
