A New Policy Por The South.
Savannah News.
There is reason for
thinking
~ G
that the appointment of John
Capers as United States district
attorney for South Carolina marks
the beginning of a new policy by
Republican party in its efforts to
get a foothold in the south. Mr
Capers is a member of one of the
oldest and most distinguished fam
ilies of that state. He has never
affiliated with the Republican
party and is not recognized as
Republican. He did not, howev
er, support the Democratic ticket
in the last presidential election
and it is probable that he was in
sympathy with the Republican
party on the money question anc.
also the Philippine question.
Without knowing exactly what
his political views are, it woulc
not be far out of the way proba
bly to say he is in pretty close
touch with Senator McLaurin on
all political matters.
Senator McLaurin is thought to
be aiming to keep in touch with
the business and industrial inter
ests of his state. The effort to
get a resolution through the Leg
islature condemning him for vot
ing with the administration Sen
ators on Philippine questions fail
ed, because, it is understoed, the
manufacturing interests of South
Carolina approved his course. The
manufacturing interests of that
state, already great, are steadily
growing in importance and influ
ence.
The element in South Carolina
represented by Senator McLaurin
and Mr. Capers is largely compos
ed of young men, and the impres
sion outside of the state is that
its strength is very considerable
Do President McKinley and other
leaders of the Republican party
seek to draw this element into
that party—make it the nucleus
of a white Republican party in
South Carolina? It certainly iooks
that way. And will the same tac
tics be employed in other South
ern states?
The failure of Congress to make
any inquiry into the disfranchise
ment of illiterate negroes in North
Carolina and some of the other
Southern states would seem to in
dicate that the Republican lead
ers have about abandoned all hope
of building up a Republican par
ty in the South by depending up
on the negroes. They may think
they see a chance to build up a
white Republican party and have
decided to begin the experiment
in South Crrolina.
If this is their purpose the ex
periment will be watched with
deep interest. The extent to which
it will be successful will depend,
in all probability, upon the posi
tion taken by the two great par
ties upon the question before the
country in the next national elec
tion. There will be no white Re
publican party in the South, how
ever, as long as federal offices are
given to the negroes when that
party is in power.
Gifts the Fruits of Gifts.
Atlanta Constitution.
Great as the benefactions of An
drew Carnegie have been, they are
not to be measured by the sums of
money which he has actually giv
en.
Beyond the measure of benefit
which such gifts confer directly
lies the stimulus which they lm
part to the liberality of other men
of means. Since Mr. Carnegie be
gan to scatter his millions broad
cast, over the country for the pur
pose of t stablishing free libraries,
numerous wealthy individuals
have caught the .fever of generosi-
ty and undertaken to build endur
ing monuments for themselves by
seeking in like manner to foster
worthy enterprises.'
During the “present month alone
several millions of dollars, exclu
sive of the benefactions of Mr.
Carnegie, have been subscribed to
worthy objects. Some of the va
rious gifts are as follows: D. W
Hitchcock, of Boston, $100,000 to
Wellesley College; Mrs. P. H.
Alms, of Cincinnati, to the Uni
versity of Cincinnati; John A.
Creighton, of Omaha, $75,000 to
Creighton College; J. B. Gilfillan,
of Minneapolis, $50,000 to the
University of Minneapolis; Mrs.
Josephine L. Newcome, of New
York, $8,000,000 to Tulane Uni
versity in New Orleans; Mrs. Ed
na J. McPherson, of New Haven,
$1,000,000 to Yale College; Sam
uel Mathew, of New York, $40,000
to Kenyon College, and Mrs. P. D.
Armour and. J. Ogden Armour, of
Chicago, $1,000,000 to Armour
Institute.
To say that Mr. Carnegie’s gifts
lave not inspired similar bene
factions on the part of other weal-
thv people is to deny the law of
influence, and so there is no tell
ing to what extent the liberality
of Mr. Carnegie is to be credited
with benefactions other than his
own Such magnificent gifts are
object lessons in altruism which
are calculated to do vast good in
this age of selfish ambition and
sordid accumulation.

Sage have not joined the ranks of

may fall in line yet.
What It Means.
“The increase in the sale of
commercial fertilizers this year,
says the Albany Herald, “is due
more to the scarcity of farm labor
than to an increased acreage in
cotton. Farm labor is getting
scarcer every year, and the farm
ers, instead of increasing their
acreage, are adopting the inten
sive system. They are not only
doing this themselves, but they
are requiring their tenants to do
it. And this is the real cause of
the increased sale of commercial
fertilizers this year. It undoubt
edly means a larger cotton crop
than might be expected if less fer
tilizer were being used, but at the
same time it is also true that it
moans an increased yield'per acre
of all crops. The intensive sys
tem is being applied to all crops,
and the commercial fertilizers sold
this year are not all going into
the cotton fields.”

“At the end of the last cam
paign,” writes Champ Clark, Mis
souri’s brilliant Congressman,
“from overwork, nervous tension,
loss of sleep and constant speak
ing I had about utterly collapsed.
It seemed that all the organs in
my body were out of order, but
three bottles of Electric Bitters
made me all right. It’s the best
all-round medicine ever sold over
a druggist’s counter.” Over work

ly women gain splendid health and
vitality from Electric Bitters. Try
them. Only 50c. Guaranteed.

Out of $84,082,644 contributed
in 1900 by charitable persons in
the United States to educational
institutions, only a little more
than $1,000,000 was given to south
ern schools and colleges. This
amount inlcudes donations for in
stitutions intended for the exclu
sive instruction of both white
and black and but a small part
of it cama from the hands of
northern givers.

A grain of sand in the eye can
cause excruciating agony. A grain
of pepper in place of the sand in
tensifies the torment. The pain
is not confined to the organs af
fected. The whole body feels the
shock of that little irritating par
ticle. It is so when there is any
derangement or disorder of the
delicate womanly organs. The dis
order may seem trivial but the
whole body feels it. The nervous
system is disordered. There are
fretfulness, irritability, sullenness
and depression of spirits. The gen
eral health of woman depends on
the local health of the organs pe
culiarly feminine. Remove the
drains, ulcerations, bearing-down
pains, and other afflictions of wo
man, and the whole body feels the
benefit. Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Pre
scription is a specific for the dis
eases that undermine the strength
of women. It is free from opium,
cocaine and other narcotics, pois
ons which enter into many other
preparations for woman’s use. It
makes weak women strong and
sick women well.
Mr. Henning, a wealthy mer
chant of Massillon, O., took din
ner in a Williamsport, (Pa.) ho
tel some time ago. The waitress
who served him by mishap spilled
a glass of milk on his clothes.
Her pretty embarrassment and
graceful apology and attractive
face appealed so strongly to the
merchant that he asked her to
marry him. And she said yes.
Milk spilling will now probably
be popular with the girls in Wil
liamsport hotels.
Prof. Ivison, of Lonaconing,
Md., suffered terribly from neu
ralgia of the stomach and indi
gestion for thirteen years and af
ter the doctors failed to cure him
they fed him on morphine. A
friend advised the use of Kodol
Dyspepsia Cure, and after taking a
few bottles of it he says, “It has
cured me entirely. I can’t say
too much for Kodol Dyspepsia
Cure.” It digests what you eat.
