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.

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 circulars, free. F. J. Cheney & Co., Toledo, O.

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 by Bagwell Drug 00. 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. It is nil sweet and nice enough to indulge iu Fourth of July occa QUESTION ANSWERED. 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.

We of the South are contending for our own, and we are going to have it. The negro has nothing that we want that was not taken from us by force and given to him. He haß no land, no birthright, do heritage—nothing but a right to help govern, which was wrongful ly given to him. When we take the ballot from him we leave him iu far better condition than he found himself when he came among us as a result of Yankee thrift and speculation. This question would settle itself very soon if pigeon-1 ivered states men would stand out of the way. ■»" ■■■— - S A MOTHER TELLB HOW SHE SAVED HER LITTLE DAUGHTER’S LIFE. I am the mother of eight child ren and have had a great deal of experience with medicines. Last summer my little daughter had the dysentery in its worst form. We thought she would die.

It proved to be one of the very best medi cines we ever had in the house. It saved my daughter's life.

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.
