WHY you should insure in the
“OLD RELIABLE”
MANHATTAN LIFE
INSURANCE COMPANY
of New York.'
HENRY B. STOKES, President.
First —It Is An Old Company.
Other things being equal, an old companp is to be pre
ferred, as it has had a chance to prove itself and make a record
by which it can be judged. “The Old Manhattan" has made
its record, to which today it points with pride.
Second— lt Is A Clean Company.
In the fifty years of its existence, no breach of scandal has
been directed towards it; no questionable practices have been
entered into by its management, and no examination of its
hooks or accounts has shown cause for criticism.
Third —lt Is A Just Company.
We judge a company as we do a man. What are its morals?
When other companies deserted the Southern Policy-holder,
and used both the money he bad contributed towards their
success, and their influence to destroy him, the Manhattan
stayed firm as a rock—“ Justice” was their motto.
See wbat a distinguished statesman of Georgia says:
STATE OF GEORGIA,
Treasury Department. Atlanta Ga., May 12, 1891.
Why Mr. Hardeman had a policy in the Manhattan Life.
Maj, Jos. H. Morgan, Special Agent, Atlanta, Ga.
Dear Sir: As agent of the Manhattan Life lusrance Company of
New York, it affords me pleasure to say to you that my fathef was in
sured in your company, and by reason of the late war, he was unable
to reach your company and pay his premiums as they fell due; and
that after the cessation of hostilities, my father having died during
the war, your company has paid to my mother the amount of his
policy less the amount of premium unpaid.
r Yours truly,
(Signed) R. U. Hardeman, State Treasurer.

THE ELECTION IN
NORTH CAROLINA.
State Decides to Disfranchise
Ignorant Blacks.
Charlotte, N. C., Aug. 2. —The
elections in North Carolina today
were for governor and state offi
cers, members of the legislature
and county officers, and for an
amendment to the state constitu
tion looking to a practical elimi
nation of the negro from politics,
as its adoption would disfranchise
the bulk of the negro vote.
By far the greatest interest cen
tered iu the fight over the amend
ment. At today’s election a great
many negroes voted for it.
The faculty of Livingston Col
lege, one of the most prominent
negro educatioaal institutions in
the South, voted for the amend
ment.
The amendment was opposed by
the fusion forces of Populist* and
Republicans, headed by Senators
Butler and Pritchard, and the
campaign waa the most bitter
waged in the state since reconstruc
tion days.
There was a full poll of the
Democratic strength, which, com
bined with a smrll negro vote and
some Populist snd Republican
votes, rolled up an unprecedented
majority. Rcturuf tonight indi
cate that the amendment was car
ried by over 40,000 majority.
Spencer B. Adams, fusion nom
inee for governor, was defeated by
Charles B. Aycock, Democratic
nomihee, by fully 40,000 majority.
All other state officers were elect
ed by equal majorities. The legis
lature is Democratic in both
branches.
The election throughout the
state was generally quiet and
peaceable, the negroes, as a gener
al thing, remaining away from the
polls.
DEAFNESS CANNOT BE
CURED
by local applications, as they
cannot reach the diseaed portion
of the ear. There is only one way
to cure deafness, and that is by
constitutional remedies. Deafness
is caused by an inflamed condition
of the mucous lining of the Eusta
chian Tube. When this tube gets
inflamed you have a rumbliug
sound or imperfect hearing, and
when it is entirely closed deafness
is the result, and unless the inflam
mation can be taken out and this
tube restored to its normal con
dition hearing will be destroyed
forever; nine cases out of ten are
caused by catarrh,which is nothing
but an inflamed condition of the
mucous sufaces.
We will give One Hundred Dol
lars for any case of De fness caus
ed by catarrh that cannot be cured
by Hall’s Catarrh Cure. Send for

Ferlli of Translation.
The translation of the English
spiritual songs into the foreign
languages often causes ludicrous
readings, which are quite equal to
any of the slangy irreverence of
the impudent young American.
A certain missionary relates that
he got an Indian scholar to assist
him in translating into the Indian
vernacular the hymn:
Rock of Ages, cleft for me,
I,et me hide myself in the.
Imagine his surprise and chagrin
to read the following loose lines:
Very old stone, split for my benefit,
Let me get under one of your fragments
During the civil war, as well as in
our late war with Spain diarrhoea
was one of the most* troublesome
diseases the army had to contend
with. In many instances it became
chronic and the oid soldiers still
suffer from it. Mr. David Taylor
of Wind Ridge, Greene Co., Pa.,
is one of these. He uses Chamber
lain’s Colic, Cholera and Diair
hoea Remedy and says he never
found anything that would give
him such quick relief. It is for sale

LAWRENCEVILLE, GEORGIA, THURSDAY, AUGUST 0. 1900.
Ths Klfht of the tfsgro to Govern.
From Macon Telegraph,
The Telegraph has succeeded in
stirriug up some of its Northern
contemporaries on the negro ques
tion in the South as it relates to
the Indian and the Filipino ques
tions —the imperialists on the one
hand and the anti-imperialists on
on the other; the New York Sun,
for instance, and the New York
Evening Post. They take a dia
metrically opposite view of the
Filipino, but the old-time anti-
Southern prejudice forces them to
stand together for the full equali
ty of the negro iu the South.
We quoted from the Sun a few
days ago. The Post says:
The Macon (Ga.) Telegraph is
candid enough to declare that it is
the purpose of the South to govern
the negro, the Indian, the Kana
ka, and the Filipino “outside of
the constitution,” which means
that thoee races are to be govern
ed as subjects, and not as mem
bers of the American common
wealth. There is a certain degree
of consistency in this declaration,
although it is a deadly conflict
with the Kansas City platform, on
which the South is supposed to
have taken its stand in the recent
campaign, The colored people
have been disfranchised in most of
the Southern states, and the same
work is now going on iu North
Carolina with ferocity. It is quite
consistent with those who take
part iu it to apply the same prin
ciples as the Hawaiian and the
Philippine islands, but under such
circumstances the Bryan campaign
in the South is a campaign of hy
pocracy. The Macon Telegraph
introduces the North American In
dian as a stalking-horse in this an
ti-republican crusade, implying
that the same arguments which
justify our policy toward them ap
ply to the Filipinos also. The
truth is that our policp ever since
we became a nation has been to
treat the Indian* as independent
nations capable of entering into
treaty relations with us until such
time as they should be sufficiently
civilized to become oitizens, as the
New York tribes became many
years ago. The statute-book is
loaded with Indian treaties. Lands
have been ceded by them in some
places and ceded to them in oth
ers, money has been paid to them,
annuities have been granted, and
stipulations of various kinds have
been entered into as a matter of
bargain. It is true that the in
fractions of treaty on our part
have been numerous, but that fact
does not contravene the principle.
Any analogy drawn from our In
dian policy is directly opposed to
the contention of The Telegraph.
Those were great treaties we had
with the Indians. The books are
full of them, indeed, but the woods
are not full of Indians any more.
Where are they ? Those treaties
were just as sincere as are our (
promises of “white man's chance”
to the negro, Iu less than one
hundred years the fifteenth amend
ment (if it is net repealed in the
meantime) and all other legisla
tion for the advancement of the
negro and the degradation of the
white people of the South will be
dead matter upon the books just
like the Indian treaties.
We might as well look this ques
tion squarely in the face. The
partisan spirit and bitterness of
heart against the South, caused
by the war between the states, is
dying out. When it iB fully dead
and gone to rest a white man will
be a white man still.

Yes, August Flower still bas the
largest sale of any medicine in the
civilized world. Your mothera
and grandmothers never thought
of usiug anything else for Indiges
tion or Billiousness. Doctors were
scarce, and they seldsm heard of
Appendecitis, Nervous Prostration
or Heart Failure, etc. They used
August Flower to clean out the
system and stop fermentation of
undigested food, regulate the ac
tion of the liver, stimulate the
uervous and organic action of the
system, and that is all they took
when feeling dull and bad with
headachea and other aches. You
only need a few doaes of Green’s

just as our forefathers did who

other matter when you try to up

We of the South are contending

He haß no land, no birthright, do

CZAR’S TORN
' WILL COME NEXT.
So Says the Mnrderer of
King Humbert.
Romk. Aug. 8. —Accrding to the
declarations made to the Milan po
lice by persons who witnessed the
assassination of King Humbert,
and especially the king’s footman,
four dr five persons, wearing
around their necks black handker
cheifs, such as Bresci wore, were
seen around the royal carriage at
the time of the crime. After it was
committed they began shouting,
evidently to increase the confusioo
and to help Bresci to escape.
II Corriere Della Italia says the
police have discovered that a huge
plot was formed in America to
murder King Humbert, and that
his assassination was to be fol
lowed by similar throughout Eur
ope.
Anotbor discovery is that Bresci,
last Sunday, entered the royal
chapel of the villa DurmaßS, evi
dently with the intention of as
sassinating King Humbert if he
were there.
A man suspected of being an
accomplice of Bresci was arrested
yesterday at a railway station
here. He had recently arrived
from the United States and will
be sent to Monza for examination.
The regicide Bresci still main
tains his excited demeanor, and
has to be dressed forcibly. Today
he exclaimed to a warden: “It
will be the czar’s turn next.”
Bresci has been removed from
Monza to Milan.
The police have foiind evidence
that Bresci acted in collusion with
others, and numerous arrests have
been made. Bresoi’s brother, a shoe
dealer, another kinsman named
Marozzi, aud seven anarchits have
been arrested at Prato. Natal
Possanzini, who was arrested at
Ancon, admits traveling with Bres
ci from Milan to Monza.
Monza. Aug.2—KingVictor Em
annel 111. upon arriving here, met
his mother, Queen Margherita, at
the castle. She fell into his arms
weeping. The king knelt before
the body of his father and repeat
edly kissed and embracced it. Af
terwards. for an hour, be, his mo
ther and his wife prayed iu the
death chamber. Subsequently the
king received the members of the
cabinet, the audience lasting au
houT and a quarter. All the min
isters, with the exception of the
ministers of war snd justice, who
are in Rome, took the oath of al
legiance.
