NORTHERN INTKRMEDM.ERB.
W. H. Johnson, a negro barber
in Washington, appears to take
the right view of the strained re
lations between the whites and the
| blacks. He has been in business in
the capital upwards of 88 yeurs,
and during that period his shop
was visited by the leading men of
the country. From observations he
has made and reasonings that he
deduced from listening to conver
sations from the leading represen
tative men of the country he has
come to a conclusion which he suc
cinctly gives as follows hi a pub
lished article: “The indiscreet,
meddlesome northern negro and
the lawless southern negro have
forced the white south against us;
and iwo-thirds as the white north,
in the event of trouble, would not
be for us against the white south.
Blood is thicker than water. Race
prejudice will always exist to a
more or less extent. I do not appre
hend a race war, but should one
come it will be justly charged up
bgainst the egotistical, self-ap
pointed negro leaders, who will not
lister, to the logic of current
events,who for political aggran
dizement or mercenary gain, are
unmindful of the welfare of their
race.”

Has a physiciau the right to end
a patient’s life when he is con
vinced that all hope of recovery is
gone, and his relatives demand re
lief in death? The question is being
discussed with a deal of animation
by doctors, lawyers and others
through the medium of some of
the Northern newspapers. Dr.
Nickerson, of Meriden,Conn., was
quoted iu the Herald the other day
as being of an affirmative opinion
respecting the matter, and, admit
ting that he had on more than one
occasion intentionally cut the
thread of existence. “Any physi
cian who makes such a confession,
if his confession is true, is a
murderer,” is the comment of
District Attorney Osborne, of New
York; aud Mr. Osborne adds that
if such confessions came to his at
tention within his jurisdiction he
would present the case to the grand
jury for an indictment for murder
in the first degree. The only de
fense which a doctor making such
a confession could have, according
to the lawyer, would be lunacy.
Another lawyer says: "It would be
dangerous to society in the highest
degree to intrust to anyone the de
cision as to whether a life should
be prolonged or not.”
Dahlouoga Signal: The farmers
of Troup, MaciJn ahd several other
counties in Georgia have taken
steps and made arrangements
whereby they can hold cotton un
til the price advances to 8 cents.
This is a move in the right direc
tion and we hope every cotton
grower in the state will enter into
the scheme. Much can be ac
complished by united action where
the farmers of an entire state
make up their minds to hold out
for a fixed and uniform price. It
is believed there will be no difficul
ty in getting merchants to advance
paper on a cotton deposit; the
paper having the same value as
money until the price held out
for is realized.

ROUNDLAP KALES IN ENGLAND.
Hon- William C Loverln*'* Demonstration
of Three Cotton Kale* Unrolling
Automatically.
Hon. William C. Loveriug has
returned from Europe whe ho has
been looking after the interests of
the American Cotton Company.
He found the sppinners of Eng
land and the Continent using the
Roundiap Bale with greatest sat
isfaction. They are keenly alive
to all the money saving advanta
ges of the new system The ease
with which the bale is handled in
transit and at the mill delights
them. The low cost of freight and
insurance, the immunity from fire
in the mill and the fact that tbore
are no hoops, wires or metal of any
kind used in baling are features
that especially appeal to the thrif
ty European spinners.
Mr. Lovering had the opportu
nity to address a meeting of prom
inent cotton manufacturers ofLan
cashire on the merits of the Round
lap Bale, and by the courtesy of
Messrs. Howard and Bullough, of
Accrington, they were invithed to
witness a demonstration of the
running of three bales of cotton
directly on the apron of a scutch
er. Nothing could have been
more perfect or absolutely satis
factory than the working of the
cotton in this way. The scutcher
was started with three bales upon
the apron and ran off at once
without a hitch or interruption.
The noise made by the beaters was
a steady deep and healthful hum,
showing that the machine was do
ing its work without labaring in
the least. The lap that was mad 6
was clean and even running, weigh
ing sixteen ounces to the yard.
The spinners took the greatest
interest in the demonstration and
with one accord expressed their
complete satisfaction with the op
eration. They said that they saw
in the new system a great revolu
tion in cotton manufacturing.
They are all anxious to buy the
new bale, and are ready to give
orders at once.
They were surprised and grati
fied to see that the scutcher was
an ordinary scutcher, such as they
were usinng in all their mills.
They had been led to think that it
required special machinery for the
purpose whereas it only required
u little heavier apron to carry the
bales or laps, weighing two hun
dred and sixty-pounds each.

Read Endorsement of an Excel
lent Man and Minister.
Winder, Ga., July 20, '99.
This certifies that my wife has
been afflicted for a piriod of 18
years, at times in bed for 3 or 4
mouths. I decided to employ Dr.
Edward Banks, of Bowman, Ga.,
to treat her, and desire to say that
her relief has been wonderful. Du
ring her affliction she has been
treated by more than a dozen phy
sicians, with only temporary re
lief. My wife boldly asserts now
that she feels better than since her
marriage, a period of 18 years. Dr.
Banks has also treated me, and I
am frank to say that I have been
wonderiully relieved. I cheerfully
recommend Dr. Banks to all af
flicted people. Give him a trial
and see for yourself.
Very truly,
J.C. Patrick, Minister.
