The Day is Approaching.
Among the greatest (or the greatest)
questions of modern times is the ques
non of human liberty or human slavery.
This qu etion will soon be before the
millions of voters to be decided at the
bollot box. At that time each and
every voter will have to assume the iti
vidual responsibility of ca-ding his bal
lot either to uphold and maintain the
principles secured by the Revolutionary
war and embodied in the IXclaratiou
of Independence, by which each citi
zen should have equal power, protec
tion, right and liberty, with every oth
er citizen, or of castiug his ballot to
uphold a system of government con
trary to these saertd principles under
which, by the aid of class legislation,
iho great common people are being
compelled to surrender these rights to
the few, a class of millionaire aristo
crats, 31,000 of whom now own three
fifths of the entire wealth of this na
tiou.
Now as an American citizen, we
ask: Do- you desire to preset ve the
principles secured in 1776 or are you
willing to help destroy them and to
build up in their stead a condition more
wicked and oppressive than ancient
feudalism?
This question now confionts you as
a voter.
Hut you ask how shall I vote to
stop these evils? Let’s see. It is now
admitted by ail that the wealth of the
country is fast leaving the many and
goiug into the hands of the few. It is
generally admitted that this result is
caused largely by class legislation that
grauts special advantages to the few as
against the many. Who has enacted
this class legislation? The legislatures
and congress aid by the governors aud
president, who have signed the acts.
Who elected these men? Answer, the
men who have voted with the political
parties who nominated them and place
their names on the ticket. The fact
seems plain then that if voting with
these parties in the past has produced
these results, the only way to stop this
system of legalized robbery and to get a
change in favor of the common people
is to cease voting with these parties
who have been in power while this in
human rascality has been going on.
What party, theu, shall I vote with to
Btop these evils and restore the princi
pies of equal rights to all aud special
privileges to none, upon which this
government was founded? Answer,
the great common people, who are the
producers of the food, raiment and
shelter of the human family, and are
also the supporters and defenders ol
every government in peace or war.
As farmers, we have seen that where-
as 1850 we owned 70 per cent, of
the natural wealth, they now' own but
20 per cent, while it has increased
thribly iu value. But notwithstanding
that they have to pay 80 per cent, of
the taxes, they find that while two
thirds of the entire wealth escapes tax
ation, their property is assessed for
more than it will sell for in carh. They
find as farmers and laborers that the
money raised to run the government
instead of being equally assessed ac
cordiug to each one’s property, is levied
upon. They consume, and further
than that, these ‘taxes, are principally
placed upon articles of common neces
sity.
In view of these faces, if we as la
borers and farmers ever expect to rem
edy these evils we must get together,
form a party (call it what you maj),
stand shoulder to shoulder, as one man
independent of the old parties, aud
victory will be ours. Respectfully,
Geo. E. Wise.

Kace Problem.
This question is nowand has been
for some time past before the public,
and vai ious opinions have been given;
,Jitit has anything been done to make
the negro’s path to race prosperity
straight aud cleat ?or hns anything
ttanspired that is calculated to lead a
reasonable creature to believe the race
is going ill that direction?
Some are educated, some have a lit
tle property, some beloug to the church
and others to society; hut are they meted
iu any way as a race to get the fruits
of their labor.
Now add the educated, the church
members, the property owners and so
ciety together, aud see what you have
It is not strong enough to run a groce
ry store, aud as producers we are not
making, putting on the market as mpeh
as the brass pins used iu our garments
aud if we were, would we have enough
race pride to buy from each other ?
Now if you waut to help solve this
problem, whatever you waut to get or
have done, seek first your owu race
before going to another. Press this
idea and it will make your path to race
prosperity straight aud clear. Say, if
30,0U0 colored people resolve this idea
to buy their goods from their own col
or stores, spending an average of $2,
each, this would make a sum of S6O,
000 taken in. Now say if one clerk
waits on 100 persons, to wait on 3,000
it take 30 clerks, therefore you have
made 30 places for our young men and
womeu by trading at your own stores,
and have enabled the owner to lay in
a larger stock to accommodate you the
next time. It is for you to solve this
problem, are you willing to do it? If
so, give your patronage to your own
race.
Don’t say the white race treats you
mean aud discriminates against you,
because sucti complaints are not made
iu good faith.
So long as you suffer it to be done
amongst your selves, as there is uo dis
crimination like or so bad as that of
the negro against himself aud race;
it is of the rankest kind. It is also
said by some of our folks that the
white folks treat us mean and dou’t
respect us. We can’t truthfully say
this; we must do right as a race before
making such complaint. The white
man of the south has thought that the
iit-gro was his political eueoiy, aud the
negro thought the white mau was his
political ereiny; but the light ofedu
cation is enabling us to see that we
are not enemies but friends.
Tlie negro has devoted much of bis
time to build the white man up politi
cally but to day these same men will
walk the street with a democrat on
on one side aud a negro on the other
aud the first hotel he gets to, the demo
crat and the republican will walk in,aud
the negro is left on the out side. There
he stops and scratches his head and
says “I don’t see how dis is, didn’t 1
hep lect dat man? I bleve he thinks
more of dat Dimocrat and he do’s me.
De white folks sholv got predjudice
giust de nigger.” The white men are
oue after the election, and are one
during the election, but the negro does
not know it. See when the republi
can gets into office he calls together all
of his white Irieuds, democrats and all,
to help eat the fatted calf that was
killed to make merry over, aud says to
them, “see here let us have a good
lime.” But where is the negro? If
he happens to be iu the room he is
there as a waiter, but not as a man.
You must remember, black men, when
you go to the polls to vote that the
white people are one, aud if you are
going to cast your vote you should
select good meu, regardless of party
because the struggle between the white
Democrats and the white Republicans
is for office, otherwise they are one.
Now let us go to work and build
ourselves up as a race, and respect our
| selves as a race, and if we will do this,
! this thing you call respect will follow
jus as sure as big fish eat little ones.
'We spend too much time in fussing,
'quarreling and idleness. We take too
much stock in having our white friends
’to settle for us, little things, that we
should settle ourselves. These things
Hood’s Is Wonderful.
No less than wonderful are the cures
accomplished by Hood’s Sarsaparil'a,
even after other preparations and phy
| sicians’ prescriptions have failed. The
reason, however, ig simple. When the
blood is enriched aud purified, disease
disappears and good health returns,
and Hood's Sarsaparilla is the ou«
true blood purifier.
Hood's Pills aie prompt and efficient
and do not purge, pain or gripe. 25c.
should bring reproach upon us and we
must stop such foolishness. We have
depeuded upon the white man to carry
u» in politics, and all other kind of bus
iness, and we have not learned any !
lesson from them yet. Therefore we j
must get up and go to work iu good ■
earliest, because we can’t make any
thing sitiiug down in idleness and 1
watching the while folks make money.
ft is failure to uuite and take care
of itself, that obstructs and darkens our
path, it is this that breeds prostitutes j
aud loafers; it is that drags us down
day by day, it is this that makes our
educated meu and women idle. We
waut our boys to come off of the gam
bling yards aud our girls off’of the
dark corners of the streets, It is this
that shuts you out of good neighbor
hood aud not your color.
If we would cultivate aud use our
seuse as we should ami help each other
we would soon be a race that could
respect, as it is we can not. The race
is a fraud, for it seems that it destroys
everthiug it comes in contact- with.
If you waut to destroy the value of
laud, settle it up with black aud
let them get to fussing and quarreling
fiddling and dancing, auu tue value of
the land will go down before you get
them off of it, 1 believe everything
on earth have their leaders except the
nigger. Even the mules have leaders,
for they follow horses. Iloth nigger
aud mules are thought well of for tbeir
strength. Some of our people say the
white folks are prejudiced agaiupt us
because they don’t troat us as tbsy no
one another. I say this is not hreju
dice, but principle, which holdfthem
together as a race, and causes illheir
blood t« flow in its purity.
Now, friends, begiu to rub lyg and
think, for the time is coming. jjKow,
when you go to the polls be eUK and
vote for the best men, regards* to
party. Some say go to
some say go west; but I say, be vwuan
aud remain here.

If asked the question “Have you got
a stomach ?” it would lie safe on gener
al principles, to answer “Yes.” But
if you are sure of it; that is, if you ever
feel any distress after earing or any
pains of whatever description in tho
region of the stomach, you have got
something more tfiau an ordinary stum
ach; iu other words, you have got a
diseas d stomach. The sUmach is a
powerful muscle, and the proper reme
dy for a tired muscle is rest. Try the

A very devout gentleman of lso3ton

Jacob’s ladder. After he had graphi

the angles were ascending aud deceud
iug, he paused and said:
“Now, boys, if there is anything in
this story that l have not yet explained,
you may ask me any question y <u like
ani I will answer it.”
Thereupon a litle chap cried out:
“Say, Mister Minister, did you say
dem angles had wings?”
“Yes, my bay,” replied the doctor,”
“angles always have wings.”
“Well, den, ef dey lied wi-igs, what

A CURABLE DISEASE.
Chronic Catarrh Is I’roiiou need Cura- |
ble by Dr. Hartman.
I There are au almost countless mini
! her of remedies said to cure chronic
citarih. The moi-t of these are of no
use whatever, and many worse than,
useless, being actually harmful. A
few are successful iu a small number of
.cases—those which are very slight aud
[easily curable—cases which might al
most get well hy simply taking care
not to catch cold agaiu. Hut of all
this vast multitude of medicines it
cau not be said that there are more
than two or three which are actually
specifics, and without doubt the most
reliable is I’e-ru na. It always cures
wheu it is faithfully aud cotiscieutious
ly used. It uot only cures catarrh of
the head and tliruat, but catarrh of the
stomach, liver, bowels, lungs, bronchial
tubes, kidneys, and in fact any of the
orgaus of the human body. It is in
deed a dreadful case of catarrh, wher
ever located, that Pe-ru na canuot cure,
or at least greatly help. It may he
procured at all the drug stores, aud it
should be given a faithful trial by
those who have tried iu vain elsewhere
to get relief.

Hog uml Hominy.
The Charleston News and Courier
renews its usual offer of SSOO in gold
in prizes to be distributed aruoung the
South Carolina farmers who raise the
largest hogs.
The competition last year fi r these
prizes was large and lively, and result
ed in some remarkable productions of
pork. The first prize hog was born
Febuarv 23, and on December 17
weighed 591 pounds. Master W. J
Richardson, of Abbeville county, had
the I'.onor of presenting this remaikble
porker and carrying off SIOO in gold, be
sides his profit on the meat. That is a
very credable record for a boy on a
farm Another hog which also won
SIOO was born January fi and on De
cember 17 weighed 534 pounds.
The former hog grew at an uverago
rate of 1.99 pound a day an I the latt> r
at the rate of 107 pounds a day. A
gaiu of 1.70 pounds a day is reported
for -another prize hog.
The production of pork has been in
creased greatly in South Carolina and
all the other Southern States during
the past few years. Which is equiva
lent to saying that the farmers of the
South are “learning Beuse.” The fol
lowing brief biography of Master Rich
ardson’s prize hog and ihe way in which
he was treated, as given by owner, is
interesting and instructive.
