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. Aunt Hetty Green and Russell Sage have not joined the ranks of the generous up to date, but they 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.” Beware of Ointments for Catarrh that Contain Mercury, As mercury will surely destroy the sense of smell and completely de range the whole system when en tering it through the mucous sur faces.

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.
