Beveral generations to recover, if k

^CJ^rorking out his ultimate sal- si
wfation on a high plane doubtly e
hard. Every succeeding Kepub- 1<
lican Ailministra ion has per- b
sisted in ignoring the white race o
in the South and in driving d
it into closer and closer union b
lor the preservation of the hon- I g
or and integrity of the land tl

it ha? cost them auy recognition
in the National Government, lor a
which, in spite of all, they have b
as great a love and loyalty as
any who fill her offices or sit in b
her council halls. C
It was on December 13. 1889, a
in Boston, that there fell upon
the ears ot an astounded u
audience a trumpet blast that o
was heard in the uttermost parts c
of the country, and compelled li
the North to pause and listen,
and listening, to learn the lesson t
it should have learned Inne h
since. Oh, I wish I could write 1]
that great speech of Henry Gra- t
dy on the race problem upon the t
hearts ot all mv countrymen, h
North and South. It has lessons s
for both. t
I am going to quote you some i
fragments, in tlie hope it may f:
induce you to read and learn 1;
the whole of it. Hear his state- I
ment of the problem and of the a
demand the North is making
upon us for its solution : c
x' "1 thank God as heartily as '
you do that human slavery is ^
gone torever from American soil n
But the freed man remains, and v
with him a problem without pre- r
cedent or parallel. Note its ap- n
palling conditions. Two utterly v
dissemilar races on the same 0
soil, with equal Dolitical and a
civil rights, almost equal in 1
numbers, but terribly unequal ?
in intelligence end responsibili ^
ty, each pledged against fusion ; c
one for a country in servitude to *
the othe', and freed at last by a g
desolating war.... Under these p
conditions, adverse at every t
point, we are required to carrv c
these two races in peace and v
honor to the end. a
"Never, sir, has such a task 8
been given to mortal steward- E
ship. Never before in this Re- 11
public has the white race divided ~
on the rights ol an alien race.
The red man was cut down as a 1
weed,because he'hindeerdthe way
of the American citizen. The 1
yellow man was shut out of this 11
Republic because ho is an alien P
and an inferior. . . .But the black *
man, affecting but one section, 11
is Dinned to the anil ai?t t
people commanded to make good '
at any hazard and at any cost ^
his lull ami equal heirship o! ^
American privilege and prosper- B
ity. It matters no1 that everv ^
other race has been routed or ex- 1
eluded without rhyme or reason. 0
It mailers not that wherever the
whites and blacks have touched 1
in any era or any clime, there 1
has been an irreconcilable vio
lence. It matters not that no ''
two rac *s, however similar, have s
ever lived anywhere, at any time,
on the same soil with equal
rights in peacel In spite of these
things we are commanded to /
make good this change ol American
policy, which has not, perhaps,
changed American prejudice,
to make certain here what
has elsewhere been impossible
between whites and blacks^ and n
to rever.se, under the very worst
conditions, the universal verdict ^
ot racial history. And we are | 1
diiven, sir, to this superhuman "
task with an impatience that v
brooks no delay, a rigor that ac- (>
cepts no excuse and a suspicion ,
that discourages frankness and t
sincerity. We do not shrink ll
from this trial. It is so inter '
woven with our industrial labric '
that we cannot disentangle it it 1

The Story of a Medicine.
Its namft?"Golden Medical Discovery"
was suggested by one of its most iinjtortant
and valuablo ingredients ? Golden
Seal root.
Nearly forty years ago. Dr. Pierce dis?
covered that he could, by the use of pure,
tr'.ple-refuied glycerine, aided by a certain
degree of constantly maintained
heat and with the aid of apparatus and
appliances designed for that purpose, extract
from our most valuablo native medicinal
roots their curative properties
much hotter th.'tn hv tho nc*? a
so generally employed. So the now worldfamed
"Golden Medical Discovery," for
the cure of weak stomach, indigestion, or
dyspepsia, torpid liver, or biliousness and
kindred derangements was first made, as
It ever sinde bus bVn, without a particle
of alcohol in its malce-up.

hoarseness, sore throat, lingering, or

' More Money in Oats Than

Monroe Journal: Mr. W. E.
Fuuderburk ol Monroe made on
on bis larm, two miles south of
Monroe, bushels of oats.
|285 bushels beinz reaped from
! four-acres of land. On the same
four acre field Mr. Funderburlc
I made last year $248.20 worth
of cotton and cotton seed, at an
expeuse of $81.60, or a net profit
of $166.60. The oats just
threshed, The Appier variety,
are worth 75 cents per bushel or
more, but at 75 cents per bush
el the crop is worth $213.75 and
was made at a co^t. $29.00. making
a net profit of $184.75, to
