Vance, THE NEW SOUTH. | The following eloquent speech was recently mude in Congress tiy Represen tative Weaver of Texas :| The embers of hatred, prejudice and bitterness which survived the War Be- Iween the Stntes have died out in the ashes of the long ago, and, while I am the son of a Confederate soldier and proud beyond the power of Hpeech to boast of ancestry so glorious, as a representa tive of the Americun people I Hhall re joice to emt my vote to pension the de serving soldiers of this great nation, and in so doing 1 know that I rellect the sentiment of the Southern people. To-day 1 would pay reverent tribute to my mother country, that beautiful and far away enchanted land — the old South. It was a country dowered by the God of nature witli elemental wealth mountains stored with iron and coal, plains bounded only by the horizon, primeval forests of the long-leaf pine and the live oak tree. "Druids of Eld with voicoB sad and prophetic;” majestic rivers rushing to tho sea and valleys like the happy val ley of Rasselas, where every blast shook spices from the leaves and every montli dropped fruits upon the ground. If you take from the structure of the United States Government and from the Nation in its making the contribution of the South, it would he as if you stripped from the skies its radiant con stellations and the starry scarf of the milky way and left the heavens in dim eclipse, black, wintry, dead, un measured. Have you estimated the contribution of the South to liberty’s cause in the revolt against, Great Britain? But for the sword and spirit of the South there would have been no devolution: there would have been no new nation. In proportion to population statistics show that, the Southern colonies contributed more than the number of soldiers con tributed by the Northern colonies to the continental armies. Long prior to tho historic declaration in Philadelphia the citizens of Mecklenberg, N. i\, de clared the lirst Declaration of Inde pendence. Patrick Henry sounded the j is well." bugle note and cull to battle. He was a Virginian. Richard Henry l.ee, in the Continental Congress, June 7, 177(i, submitted a resolution declaring that "these united colonies are, and of right ought to be, free and independent States." Ho was a Virginian. Thomas .1 ellerson wrote the Declaration of In dependence that marvelous State pa per set on tire with the aspirations for human liberty, a paper that will live to the Inst syllable of recorded time, lie was a Virginian. George Washington commanded and led to glorious victories He was a Virginian. The English armies were defeated; the independence of the colonies was secured by Shi th em soldiers on Southern battlefields. The convention that framed the Con- slitution of tiie United States was pre sided over by George Washington. That Constitution took its mould and con formation from the brain of James Madison, a Virginian. No one influence gave to the new Government us much strength, sta bility and power in its formative pe riod as the decisions of the greatest jurist who ever sat on the bench of that exalted tribunal, the Supreme Court of the United States -John Marshall, a Virginian. Time would fail me even tonitnv' the great men of the South. She gave to civilization and the future ages Thorn- world’s greatest orator; Matthew Fon taine Maury, who discovered and charted the circulation of currents of the ocean and wrote the "Physical Geo graphy of the Sea;” James Audubon, America's foremost naturalist and ornithologist; Edgar Alien Poe, the weird poet whose genius was not only brilliant but divine; and, Anally, let me tell you that the State of Kentucky lirst horn and fairest daughter of the Old Dominion, gave to the South Jefferson Davis, nnd to the world the unique, the wondrous, the inimitable Lincoln. Worthy to rank with these are poets like Henry Timrod, Paul Hamilton Hayne, Father Ryan, nnd Sidney La nier; great preachers, Munsey, Marvin and George F. Pierce; statesmen like Alexander II. Stevens and John C Cal houn; men of rugged and heroic mould like Andrew Jackson and Sam Houston; and great orators, William I,. Yancey, Ben Hill, Robert Toombs, and that morning star of the new South, the messenger of peace, Henry W. Grady. I wish I had the power to paint a picture of the social state of the South ern people in ante helium days —their spontaneous nnd universal hospitality; the indifference to the blandishments of wealth; the joyous out-of-door life under the blue skies and in the reveal ing woods; the modesty and innate re finement. of the women, shrinking like a (Iowur from the public eye, but, like the flower, unmarred by the storm; tho rugged independence of the men, who would not stir an inch to gain a crown; the unbnught graces of life; the honor thut fell n stain like a wound; and the spirit that permeated the atmosphere that we cannot describe, but cun only cull "Southern chivalry.” It is gone from us, far away as some lost Arcadia or Old-World-fabled Atlantis. Gone is the big house with tho tall coloniul columns and the wide verandas, set in the background of the giant trees that “in many a lazy syllable repeated their old poetic legends to the wind.” Gone the negro quarters and the ten der love and loyalty of the slaves bound to their masters by ties of mutual af fection; the crooning of the lullaby of tho old black negro mammy; the folk lore of the glorious nights with Uncle Remus; and the lost spell of the days with Auron, the son of Ben Ali, in the wildwood. Such was the old South, of whom the Southern poet sang. Stoop, nnurd, hither from the skios; There is no holier spot of'ground Thun where defeated valor lies By mourning beauty crowned. A Southern man to-day sits in the White House, with Southern men in his cabinet; a Southern man is the Speaker, a Southern man tho Democratic leader of this House; a majority of the mem bers of the Sixtv-third Congress are of Southern birth or ancestry—and yet all are Americans, and from the watch- tower is heard the sentinel’s cry, "All CAN YOU DOUBT IT?

Tallapoosa, Ga., July 5 —In a vigor ous campaign speech, made to a large Fourth of July crowd here Saturday morning, State Commissioner of Agri culture J. IJ. Price produced records and affidavits to refute tho charge of his opponent, J. J, Brown, to the ef fect that, illegal votes had been cast in favor of Price in the. Macon Convention which nominated Price. Mr. Price avowed his intention of re fraining from any mudslinging or news paper controversy, but said he felt it his duty to his friends anil to the voters of Georgia to nail campaign falsehoods which had been circulated against him. The specific illegal voting charge which published reports credited Mr. Brown with making, was that the man who cast Chattooga county’s vote held no credentials, did not live in Chat tooga and had been influenced by Price with the promise of a fertilizer inspec tor’s position in exchange for his ille gal vote. In his speech here Mr. Price branded these charges as false. He produced records showing that the Chattooga county votes were cast by Elmo Ballew, an accredited delegate to the conven tion; that tho votes were cast for Price because I’rice had carried Chattooga county by 83 majority, and that the people of Chattooga and the delegates of the convention approved the action. He produced an affidavit from Ballew showing that Ballew not only had never been promised any kind of a position or reward from Price, but that as a mat ter of fact he had never received or held any position under Price. Mr. Price showed further that even if Chattooga’s votes had been cast for Brown it would not have affected the outcome, since on the first ballot Price got 177 votes and Brown 177, while it re- I quired 185 to elect. Mr. Price declared that Brown’s friends tried to get him (Price) to withdraw from the race, but failed. He said they then used patron age and promises of patronage to influ ence votes, and that the guano inter ests also did their best to influence del egates in favor of Brown. Mr. Price’s own victory, he declared, came fairly and honestly when the third candidate, A. O. Blalock, withdrew voluntarily, without any strings whatever attached to his withdrawal. The speaker called attention to his lifelong record as an organized Demo crat and stated that he had been chosen fairly and squarely by an organized Democratic convention, just as the nominees for other State House offices were chosen. About the only other charges which had been brought against him, Mr. Price said, was that he spent his time hobnobbing with the weather man and advising the people to eat peas. Against such charges, said Mr. Price, bethought his official record was sufficient answer. This record, embodied in his annual re port, showed that he had taken more fertilizer samples, by over 1,000, be tween January and June than had ever been taken in one year before; that he had put more money in the Treasury than it had ever before received in the same length of time from the Depart ment of Agriculture, and that his work along pure food and pure feed lines had been more extensive and effective than that of the department in the past. Mr. Price was enthusiastically ap plauded when he concluded with the statement that he himself was a real Georgia farmer; that he had no inter ests except farming; that he had never been connected with a guano company.

Grace George on Masculine and Feminine Lying. Do women tell more lies than men? Are men more honest? Can a man be honest and yet a liar’ And a woman? M“n accuse women of lying, women ac cuse men. “Both are in the right,” says Grace George in the July, Strand, ‘‘be cause men and women both lie, and to the same extent. But there is a wide difference in their lies and in their purposes. Shall we analyze them a bit., just for the fun of it? "In the first place, take the lies be tween men and women. Those are the lies that hurt, the lies that really break hearts, ruin homes—the lies that have changed the destiny of many an empire. Other lies are either economic or social, and, while important, they do not have the sting that a lie between a man and a woman has. “Men say women would rather tell ten lies than one truth. Women do not deny this—if it is a question of petty lies. A woman never hesitates to fib about small detail. If ‘The Truth’ is easier to tell than a lie they tell it. But if the lie is more convenient, it comes to the lips. In the great questions of sincerity, of feeling —questions which really have importance—then the wo man does not lie. She is honest. In nine cases out of ten when a woman says she loves a man she really loves him. She means it. But a man! In such questions he does not hesitate to lie. He will be stanchly upright when it is a matter of saying he is out when he really is ip; he would not dream of saying he liked a thing he disliked; but he will lie to the woman he loves de liberately, cruelly, unmercifully. And that is why men and women never agree on the subject of lying. Their standpoint is different. "Except to men, women do not lie much in economic matters. A woman will tell her husband she paid one price for a hat when she really paid either more or less, but in such cases it is usually for some purpose. I mean the husband is more apt to be the kind of a man with whom one cannot be honest. But aside from such cases, between a woman and a man, she can be depended on to be very ‘straight’ in money mat ters. I know, for instance, that I would rather lend money to a woman than to a man. A woman has a horror of debt, she has a horror of being in financial difficulties. A man, in his happy-go-lucky way, does not mind, and for that reason he will lie about his financial affairs. He will promise in money matters, with no intention of keeping his promise. A woman may exaggerate, but it will be obvious. A man will lie deliberately about his finances and do it subtly and wisely, so a3 to deceive. “Women lie for the sport of the game; men lie to achieve a purpose. Women lie unintentionally, not realiz ing what they are doing. Men are ful ly aware of their actions, and lie in im portant matters. So there you have it. The quantity of lies, if you are to cal exaggerations of harmless stories by such an important name, is to the wo man’s credit, I believe. But if you calculate the quantity of lies by their importance and intention, all the black marks will go to the man.” OMETHING NEW Best Diarrhoea Remedy. If you have ever used Chamberlain’s Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy you know that it is a success. Sam F. Guin, Whatley, Ala., writes: “I had measles and got caught out in the rain, and it settled in my stomach and bowels. I had an awful time, and had it not been for Chamberlain’s Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy I could not pos sibly have lived but a few hours longer; but, thanks to this remedy, I am now well and strong.” For sale by all dealers. “I don’t like my new gown very well,” said the young lady, "The ma terial is awfully pretty, and the style is all right, but it needs something to improve the shape of it.” "Why,” suggested the dearest friend, “don’t you let some other girl wear it?” > It Always Helps says Mrs. Sylvania Woods, of Clifton Mills, Ky., in writing of her experience with Cardui, the woman’s tonic. She says further: “Before I began to use Cardui, my back and head would hurt so bad, I thought the pain would kill me. 1 was hardly able to do any of my housework. After taking three bottles of Cardui, 1 began to feel like a new woman. I soon gained 35 pounds, and now, I do all my housework, as well as run a big water mill. 1 wish every suffering woman would give The Woman’s Tonic a trial. I still use Cardui when 1 feel a little bad, and it always does me good.” Headache, backache, side ache, nervousness, tired, worn-out feelings, etc., are sure signs of woman ly trouble. Signs that you need Cardui, the woman’s tonic. You cannot make a mistake in trying Cardui for your trouble. It has been helping weak, ailir.g women for more than fifty years. Get a Bottle Today!
