ENROLL FOR PENSION DATA. - ? Commission Sends Blanks and Instructions to Probate Judges. - v ? Columbia, Sept. S.?D. W. McLaurin, State pension commissioner, has sent out to all judges of probate and members of county pension boards, a letter and application blanks, calling for the enrollment of all Confederate soldiers and sailors, who were on the old pension rolls. The work is to bo completed during the months of Sep? - tember and uctooer. This work is necessitated because of the creation of the pension com- I mission last session of the general j assembly. This year it handled only j those who had never before been on i the pension rolls, all other pensioners being paid out of the. comptroller general's office last spring, because i the work had advanced so far. The j full pension business is now concentrated in the office of the pension comimssion, and a full re-enrollment is necessary. The letter follows: , "Under separate cover I am sending you aplication blanks for re-enrolling all Confederate soldiers and sailors and widows of soldiers and sail* ?? ors who nave Deen uh tut? uiu pcuowi. roll. "These blanks are in different colors, as you will see, one for the men and one for the women. "If you have an aplicant who has never been cn^the pension roll before you are to use the white form, the same as were used by you in enrolling new applicants this year. "Should a widow apply for a pension whose husband was on the olo roll, you will use the new blanks which we are sending you under separate cover. "I would suggest that you have a meeting of your board during the second and fourth week in each month. I am giving September and October in which to complete this work, and I would earnestly request that you send in the applications as soon as they are passed upon by the board at each meeting, so that the work in this office will not be congested. "I am enclosing herewith a copy of the comptroller general's report for 1918, giving the company and regiment of every pensioner on the old I roll. Each applicant will have to verify his record in accordance with instructions, copy of which is herewith inclosed. "I respectively request your prompt attention to the enrolment of these veterans and their widows. After 1 this enrollment is completed, it will not be' necessary to make up any more rolls. I feel sure that I will / have your hearty cooperation in this work, and wish to assure you that this office stands ready to assist you in every way possible to this end. ? THE NORTH AND THE COLORED MAS. # (Fort Wayne, Ind., Journal Gazette) There is something which sheds illumination on our northern hypocrisy, regarding our fairness to the colored people, in the fact that serious race troubles are feared?in the north. Please take note that these serious race troubles are feared?in the north. And Carl Ackerman, the famous correspondent, in explaining why, presents several reasons as follows: 1. The influx of negro laborers from the South during the war which resulted in the overcrowding of colored districts. 2. Lack of proper housing facilities and the antagnonism of white citizens . to an extension of the negro neighborhood." 3. The general policy cf negro laCALOMEL SALEVATES AND MAKES YOU SICK Acts like dynamite on a sluggish liver and you lose a day s work. There's no reason why a person should take sickening, salivating calo mel when a few cents buys a large bottle of Dodson's Liver Tone?a per feet substitute for calomel. It is a pleasant, vegetable liquid which will start your liver just as surely as calomel, but it doesn't make you sick and can not salivate. Children and grown folks can take Dodson's Liver Tone, because it is perfectly harmless. Calomel is a dangerous drug. It is mercury and attacks your bones.Take n ASA Tmcfv AA1ATV>A1 4-Ai^OlT o a uuoc wi v-aiymci buuajr aiiu you will feel weak, sick and nauseat ed tomorrow. Don't lose a day's work.

Unscrupulous city politicians who, because cf the negro vote, hesij tate to do anything toward adjusting ! any disagreements between white and black neighbors. And so we, who have been so in[ dignant over occasional mobs in the [South, usually following attacks on women, are ready to mob colored peo- J ] ! pie because they want to work. Dear j j me, how strange?from we people of j I the north. One might almost fancy j \ that there is a touch of hypocrisy in I our blood. The colored man has a ! right to work. He has to work or j starve. He has a right to the protec- j tion of our laws. And it is remarkable that ^he seems to have better protection in his economic rights in the South than in the north. The fact is that northern politicians, twin brothers of the carpet-baggers, the j most infamous breed ever developed I in America, are only interested in the colored man's right to vote. Some day the colored man will realize something of this. <8?
