Merriam, who as director of eensus at Washington, D. C., repeat- diy showed our people how preju- ‘iced he could be, has resigned. It is a pity he did not see fit to do this many months ago. Good riddance! ——___ President Roosevelt has given the (rejudiced whites in the south an- ‘other “bat” in the mouth. They have been begging for such treat- ‘ment for a long time and, thank the ‘Lord, they are getting it at last. Good and a plenty. too. , Now Bishop Turner has “gone and done it’—patted on the back one- ‘eyed Ben Tillman, the abusive sena- ‘tor from South Carolina. We cannot abuse the bishop; only pity him. He fhas been a great man in his day, which clearly is not this day and time , President Roosevelt has reappoint- a Dr. Wm. Demos Crum collector of ‘customs at Charleston, S. C. He said ‘he would do this if the senate ad- ourned without taking action, when 4nsisting upon either Mr. Crum’s con- 'firmation or rejection. The senate’s ‘committee on commerce to which ‘was referred the Crum appointment decided to report adversely on it. The senate failed to take any action in he doctor's case and in order that he might continue to hold the position, it was necessary for the president. to ‘reappoint him immediately upon the adjournment of congress, March 4, Senator Ben Tillman said last week ‘that the senate would never be al- ‘lowed to take any favorable action lin tne matter as Jong as he was a ‘member, stating that he could pre- vent such action by continued talk- ing, assisted by others opposed to Dr. Crum’s confirmation. If the sen- ate continues to fail to take action, the opinion prevails thot on each ad- journment of that body President Roosevelt will reappoint him, and thus enable him to hold office’ just the same as if he were confirmed. ‘The president is to be commended on the manly stand he has taken and gnatréaine. SOUTHERN MORBIDNESS. In 1820 the southern mind was greatly inflamed, owing to the insti- tution of slavery, which, as a natural consequence, incited men to deeds of violence and rage. In 1850 the fever of excitement was intense and the strong. men of the nation rallied their best efforts in order ‘to allay the growing feeling of defiance and rebellion ingident to the terrible in- fluence of domestic institution. To suppress this morbid spirit, our best statesmen gave warning of the dan- ger which must be averted. The highest wisdom was in demand to re- strain the passion and rashness of heedless men. Webster and Clay and Benton were foremost in their en- deavors to check’ the rising tide of re- sistance to governmental authority. ‘Then came Seward and Chase end Hale and Sumner calling the nation from danger and to duty. Madness seized the southern heart and in wild impetnosity the demon of slavery sought to break asunder and destroy the union of states. People little be- Neved what they were soon called to experience. The people of the south little dreamed that they were pro- voking a war which would soon in- volve the lives of millions of Amer- Yea’s brave sons, But they dared to venture, they dared to invite the Dhoodiest war ever known to civiliz- ved man, and in 1860 the whole Amer- foan continent stood in martial array while men in the gray and the blue confronted each other in deadly con- flict. Through a sheer morbid frenzy southern men asked and demanded sacrifice at the hands of the nation, A terrible, feanful sin was upon the people and an atonement was to be made. The result of the late war has deen given to history, yet the lesson of that sanguinary struggle remains unlearned. The south is. still joined to its idols and the demon of caste, ‘of prejudice and slavery still impels whe southern heart to dire mischief. After thirty-ceven years of peace and growth the nation has not redressed her wrongs, has not righted griev- ances too heavy to be borne. An atonement suited to our offenses will ‘be demanded at the hands of the na- don, and the maddened south, heed- Jess, reckless, vindictive and defiant, (will ensnare again our country into interminable evils unless by some rovidential intervention we are res- ened. But to-day the south is court- ! the destruction of the nation. Reisaeaton supercilious, proud and wain-giorious, they challenge God Al- mighty and seek to reconstruct His omnipotent end immutable law of sight. They ebuse the president of the United States and in their su- preme wrath assume the right of regulating the affairs of His family. What care they whether we have a government or not! All the day long they sing of social equality and shout the story of their superior blood. For such folly and foolishness they must answer sooner or later at the bar of retribution. For more than a hun- dred years the Dutch republic so lived and finally went down to in- Glorious defeat. God grant that the southern people may see the error of their way, turn from their evil and live. —__ NOT IMMORAL, BUT NON- MORAL. 80 determined is the southern press to make a case of the absolute unfitness of the Negro to dill posi- tions of honor and trust under the government that it ds argued that the African is not only immoral, but non- moral. But this is but an attempt to seem to be wise upon pure ignorance. ‘All men possess a moral nature and though the Memphis Appeal man has upon his own ipse dixit declared the Negro to be non-moral, yet the truth of his moral qualities is admitted upon the assertion that brain devel- opment continues with the Negro till he reaches the age of 14. This is (prima facie evidence that the purena- tive African possesses discriminating Powers, which are just as keen and susceptible as those of any other race. The editor of The Commercial Appeal admits this fact, and in ad- mitting so much, he is bound to ad- mit that he has only stultified him- self in his imbecile endeavor to deny ‘to the Negro faculties of mind which are inherent in his nature. He claims that the sutures of the skull have a premature closing, a thing which is the very bugbear of super- lative nonsense. But even were this to be admitted (and it cannot be), then what ‘becomes of the mind, which is the composite of intellect, sensibility and will? What becomes of the soul, the very attribute of our spiritual being? Certainly these must remain forever as a character- istic element of ourselves. The pres- ent age of letters and learning is its own argument that all human minds acquire growth and development and the mind of the Negro is no excep- tion to this law. Every manifesta- tion of mind is a clear demonstration of the fact, that humanity is prog- ressive the world over, and though it gathers growth by virtue of associa- tion and contact, we need no strong- er proof to establish the fact that the argument of the premature clos- ing of the sutures of any race of peo- ple is a base subterfuge and is illogic- ally untrue. It may be admitted that men sometimes when demented and prejudiced have proven too much and in so doing prove nothing, but the editor in his wild attempt to de- grade the Negro has only succeeded in slandering his own race and dam- aging ‘his cause. MOB VIOLENCE COSTS $9,000. ‘The people of Champaign county have finally been compelled to pay $6,500 for the lynching of “Click” Mitchell at Urbana in 1897—$5,000 of the amount was the judgment under Ohio's anti-lynching law, $500 inter. est due on that amount, and $1,006 costs and extra fees in carrying the case from the common pleas court of that county to the supreme court of Ohio. An editorial in the Plain Dealer of Sunday, in referring to the effect- iveness of the law which has certain- ly commanded “more attention from the mob than any other law” against lynching and mob violence > in the country, rather questions its effect- iveness. In 1893, 1894 and1895—three years—there were more lynchings and mob violence demonstrations by several times over than there have been (with the occasions for the same even more numerous) in the last seven years. It was in 1896 that the editor of The Gazette introduced and secured the passage of an anti- lynching bill which is now Ohio's “mob violence law. The deterrent ef- fect of the law upon officers and citi- zensalike is clearly exemplified in the experience of the state during the last seven years and for the three or seven years previous to 1896. ‘The law is no longer an experiment, as the Plain Dealer would lead one to believe. The $6,500 paid by the offic- ials of Champaign county and the $2,- 500 Logan, an adjoining county, was mulcted of becd#use of a mob violence demonstration during the pendency in the courts of the “Click” Mitchell- Urbana case, have had their effect, not only upon the taxpayers and of- ficials of the two counties named, but, upon those of every other county in the state. The proof of this is the practical blotting out of lynching in Ohio since the court judgments in the ‘two cases mentioned. The mere knowledge of the fact of the passage of the bill had its effect for good, be- cause there is absolutely no doubt of the fact that its deterrent effect was most marked during the interim of the date of its passage and the “Click” Mitchell lynching which came immediately upon the heels of the de- cision of a common pleas judge of this state, attacking the constitution- ality of the law. The Logan county affair followed closely the Urbana demonstration. But since the state supreme court’s favorable decision anent the constitutionality of the Jaw, we have not only had no lynch- ings but practically no mob violence demonstrations. A comparison of the last seven years with the seven years or even three years preceding the year 1896 will establish beyond all question or doubt the fact that the law is and has been effective, and is @ perfect success. GUR GREAT SLANDERER. ‘The despised Commercial Appeal of Memphis devotes its editorial col- umns mostly in caricaturing and de- erying the colored people of the eountry, It will be observed that ‘his viperous sheet, while claiming the friendship of the southern whites for the race, applies itself sedulous- ly in denouncing them, and thet, too, in the same spirit as if they were brutes. With calous indifference to the merest claims of humanity, the Commerial Appeal in unmixed bru- tality strikes the race with @ malign- ity unmatched by the most depraved and vicious of the untutored savage. A betrayal of such inhumanity illus- trates the hatred and contempt which the editor of the Appeal feels for the weaker element of the human family. But if the editor of the Ap- Peal possessed those finer and nobler attributes of soul which characterize the higher order of mankind she could never descend to that lower plane whence eminates the worst and meanest qualities of inferior races. The Appeal man seems well adapted to these demeaning prac- tices, hence it would seem needless that we should find it necessary to offer our protest. But mingling among the same people under one common government and bowing alike at the same sacred altar of prayer, it must be not a little goad- ing and even crushing that we should be subjected to such humiliation and shame. It is certainly beyond human comprehension to determine the im- Port of action so inhuman and unnat- ural that the black man may be thus assailed, insulted and outraged, as though he possessed not the ordinary instincts of the dumb brute. On the one hand, the Appeal man offers treaties on philosophical subjects, discourses in seeming wisdom upon statecraft and economics, pleads the cause of the poor and has even given himself as the champion of the ex- slaves for pensions, But the plea is @ blind pretense. The Appeal man knows only too well that a bill to pension ex-slaves will never become a reality. If the Appeal man would prove his friendship for the race, let him show himself just and generous; let him cease his vilification and de- nuneiation of a people who stand to- day almost helpless and defenseless under the mightiest republic known to the world. If he would be mag- nanimous let him not play the hypo- crite, and when black men in the nortih convene to declare their sym- pathy for their southern brothers or to express their grievances, let him not hasten to proclaim to the world that the south is being denounced by northern Negroes. But the Appeal man is not only hypocritical, he is ungrateful in the extreme. To-day more than a thousand Afro-Ameri- cans are subscribers and constant readers of that journal. They watch eagerly to catch the news. But imag- ine their chagrin when they find themselves traduced, dehumanized and deceived by the very journal to which they find thenselves giving patronage and support. Is not this brutality of the meanest type? Sel- dom, indeed, de we find just such a type of humanity. But it reveals it- ‘Se in the loathsome character of the individual denominated ‘CIVII- IZED MAN. We therefore add that ‘since the Commercial Appeal is in- -cendiary, that since it shows nothing of the spirit of magnanimity and justice to the race, let Negroes patronize their own journals more and shun their traducers.

He Went West and Prospered. Freeland, Kans., Mar, 9th—One of the most prosperous farmers in Harper County is Mr. N. H. Mead. Some thirty-four years ago he left his home near Clarence, N. Y., and came to Kansas. Here he has thrived splendidly and last year harvested over one hundred and forty acres of wheat alone. But everything has not gone well with Mr. Mead, for his health has not been good for the last few years. He has suffered a great deal with Kidney and Bladder Trouble and could get nothing to stop it. Lately, however, he has improved a great deal and he says that he has none of the old symptoms left and is feeling splendid again. He used Dodd's Kidney Pills and this remedy seemed to work wonders in his case. He says himself: "Dodd's Kidney Pills have made me well. They are all right and a reliable remedy for Kidney Trouble. They helped me right from the start, giving me great relief, and finally cured me." He chooses night who refuses light.—Ram's Horn.

Information of Recent Date Collected in Various Ways and Condensed for the Convenience of Our Busy Readers. CONGRESSIONAL The senate of the Fifty-eighth congress met in extraordinary session on the 5th. The oath of office was administered to 30 newly elected senators and after some other routine business an adjournment was taken until the 9th. Three newly elected senators were sworn in on the 9th. A short executive session was held and the Penama canal treaty was read. The senate on the 10th spent the entire day in discussion of the Panama canzl treaty, in executive session. Three masked highwaymen boarded a Detroit United railway car in Delray, Mich., at midnight and stole a gold watch from Motorman Fred Follette. Conductor Marah beat the men off with a brake iron and did not lose anything. The difficulty between the hat manufacturers and their engineers at Danbury, Conn., has been satisfactorily adjusted and the threatened shut down of factories will not take place. Never in the history of the window glass industry in this country have manufacturers and jobbers been confronted with such a serious situation as at present. If the plans of a number of leading producers to close down their factories temporarily are successful, it is said, higher prices are assured, while if it fails, it is predicted that the most ruinous price war which has ever been inaugurated will be a certainty. Fire on the water front at Fairhaven, Wash., destroyed the Murchison saw mill, and the Hill-Webon wharf, together with two Northern Pacific passenger coaches. Total loss $130,000. The sugar producers of Germany want the government to introduce the Austrian system of alloting to both refiners and raw factories the amount of sugar they may produce yearly. According to advices received from Peking, an outbreak, and with it a carnival of murder exceeding the Boxer outbreak, is regarded by many as imminent. A syndicate composed chiefly of Cleveland capitalists is securing options on almost all the coal mines on the Kanawha and New rivers in West Virginia. The decrease of $5,284,925 reserve reported in the New York bank statement for the week that closed March 7, brings the excess surplus down to $666,975, by far the smallest recorded at this season for many years, and the lowest actual figure, with two exceptions, noted within 12 months. The court-martial which tried Lieut. Chester Wells for casting away his vessel, the naval tug Leyden, on the south coast of Block Island, January 21 last, has acquitted that officer. The ferry boat Neptune, plying between Allegheny and the West End, was sunk in the Ohio river near the foot of Chartiers street, Allegheny, by the steamer Margaret. The Neptune is a total loss and the crew and passengers had to swim to the Allegheny side in order to save their lives. The Kansas supreme court has declared invalid the nuisance claim of the prohibitory law, which practically destroys the injunction section of the statute and makes it more difficult than ever to enforce the law. Ten thousand miners of the Elkhorn and Flat Top coal fields, on the Norfolk & Western railway will be given a voluntary increase in wages of ten cents a ton, beginning April 1. In the presence of 3,000 spectators including officers of the state of Tennessee, the city of Chattanooga, the city of New York and many naval officers, the United States cruiser Chattanooga was launched at the shipyards of the United States Shipbuilding Co. at Elizabethport, N.

The American Seeding Machine Co., with an authorized capital of $15,000,000, has been incorporated at Trenton, N. J. The company is to manufacture seeding machines and agricultural machinery of all kinds. In a head-on collision at Danville, Va., between two passenger trains on the Southern road, James E. McArthur, of Gaffney, S. C., a travelling man, and W. E. Neal, an overhauler, were killed. Joseph Coleman, who was assisting Neal, was severely hurt and several passengers were injured. Demands have been made on all the shipyards in the vicinity of New York by the Boilermakers' union for a general increase in wages and shorter hours of work. The labor men say that if the demands are not granted there will be a strike of all the trades connected with shipbuilding. C. R. Devlin, Irish nationalist, formerly Canadian commissioner in Ireland, has been elected without opposition to represent Galway in the house of commons in place of Col. Lynch, who is undergoing a sentence of life imprisonment for high treason. The police caused a sensation at Pittsburg by raiding the Keystone Development Co., closing the offices and arresting six officers on a charge of conspiracy to defraud. The company has been in existence about two months and has been promoting a scheme to procure homes upon small monthly payments. Fire is raging in the coal mine of the Northern Pacific Railroad Co. at Chestnut, Mont. As far as possible all approaches to the fire have been bulkheaded and it is hoped to smother the blaze. All operations at the mine have been suspended for two weeks. Over 200 men are idle. One hundred families living below Alton, Ill., have been rendered homeless and many have lost their belongings as a result of the rise in the Mississippi river. Hundreds of farmers living in the lowlands about Harrisburg, Ill., have been forced to move by the rising of Saline and Bankston creeks. For miles the country thereabouts is a vast sheet of water. Townsville, North Queensland, has been visited by a cyclone, in which many persons were killed or injured. A part of the hospital building collapsed during the storm, killing six persons. Schools, churches and residences were destroyed, and many of the inhabitants were rendered homeless. Andrew C. Wheeler, better known as "Nym Crinkle," a well known newspaper writer, died at his home at Monsey, N. Y., the other day. An attempt was made at midnight to burn the American Window Glass Co.'s No. 3 plant at Hartford City, Ind. The tar roof over the cutting department had been saturated with oil and a match applied. There is intense feeling against the company for the dismissal of the men and the introduction of the blowing machines, and the attempt to burn the plant is laid at the door of one of the men. Edward Coffin, who is to command the America, the ship of the new Ziegler polar expedition, his first officer and 17 whalers have sailed from New York City for Tromsoc, Norway, to fit out the ship.

The president has appointed William Plimley, of New York, to be assistant treasurer of the United States at New York, to succeed the late Conrad Jordan. As the result of a factional fight in the Mount Pleasant Baptist church six miles from Johnston, S. C., one man was killed and three were seriously wounded. Dr. Don Sang, Chinese doctor and exalted member of various Chinese secret societies, reputed to be one of the wealthiest men of his race in this country, is dead at his home in Chicago. His medical training was secured in his own country, but most of his practice was in America. He made a large part of his fortune in the gold fields of the west in '49. William De Labarre, director of the Washburn-Pillsbury mills, Minneapolis, is in Magdeburg, Germany, buying machinery for the briquette works that W. D. Washburn intends to build at Bismarck, N. D. Briquettes, which are fuel made from lignite, are widely used in Germany. It is estimated that 55,000 square miles of lignite underlie the Dakotas and Montana, while another wide belt extends through the Gulf states from Florida to Texas. A snow plow which was being transferred from one section of the Old Colony street railway to another became unmanageable at the top of a steep hill in Fall River, Mass., and, dashing down the incline, crashed into two cars loaded with passengers. Both the passenger cars were almost completely demolished and five persons sustained wounds Sir William Mullock has obtained the consent of the postmaster general of England to reduce the rate on Canadian newspapers and periodicals posted in Canada for transmission to England to the same rate as if posted for delivery in Canada.

United States Minister Powell has achieved another success in obtaining from the Dominican government the withdrwal of the degree lowering the port charges which seriously affected the interests of the Clyde steamship line. There is a fever of excitement in the cod liver oil market. Within 4 few weeks the oil has risen from $18 to $70 a barrel. Seals are causing the trouble. They have appeared in large numbers off the Norwegian coast, the chief source of supply, and have destroyed the fisheries. Samuel K. Dow, formerly one of the most prominent lawyers of the Chicago bar and partner of Chief Justice Fuller, is dead. Mr. Dow was one of the founders of the republican party and was active in the movement looking to Abraham Lincoln's first nomination. J. Hobart Herrick, former president of the New York produce exchange, fell two and a half stories as he was stricken with apoplexy in the Union League club, and died from his injuries.

Episcopal Bishop William Moreland, of the diocese of Sacramento, is to be placed on trial in San Francisco to defend himself against a number of charges made by Rev. William Bollard, of Vallejo, Cal.

On the 11th the senate devoted the day to consideration of the Panama canal treaty. Mr. Morgan did nearly all the talking. PROSPERITY IN CANADA. The Farmer In Western Canada Achieves Wonderful Success. One of the first things that the man who wishes to change his residence endeavors to find out is where he may go and succeed. It need be a matter of little doubt or indecision now. During the past four or five years the development of Western Canada has been so rapid, and the conditions of life there so widely known, that upwards of 100,000 Americans have taken up their homes there, and the experience of these people is that they are thoroughly satisfied with their choice of home. The methods of farming there are similar to those adopted in the United States, but the operations are simpler, the yield of grain greater, and the profits more satisfactory. Ranching is carried on with lots of success. Mixed farming is always profitable, while the results in grain-raising are as certain as splendid soil, excellent climate and lots of sunlight can give. The yields of — but nothing is as satisfactory as the experience of the farmer himself, and extracts are selected from one. A good, intelligent farmer, named Mears, John Mears, to be exact—left Cavalier County, North Dakota, two years ago, and followed the thousands who had already gone to Canada. He had twenty-five years' experience in Minnesota, in buying grain, including flax. But in all his experience, he never saw a district so well suited to the growth of flax as Western Canada. The financial results of Mr. Mears' operations in a single season are as follows: Wheat, 3,000 bushels, 1 hard at $7 1/2 c, $1,785.00. 2,680 bushels, 1 Northern at 54c, $1,457.20; oats, 1,750 bushels, at 35c, $612.50. Speltz, 154 bushels at 75c, $115.50. Flax, 324 bushels, at $2, $628. Total, $4,598.20—A return of more than $4,500 from a little over 250 acres, an average of $18 per acre—is surely testimony sufficiently strong to satisfy the most incredulous as to the money to be made out of the soil of the Canadian West. It is to facts like these—arguments expressible and demonstrable in dollars and cents, that the steady northward movement of American farmers is due. Mr. Mears is settled near Arcola. Assa. A number of Amerleans who have chosen Western Canada as a home had the idea that a man enjoyed less freedom in Canada, but they soon found their mistake, and say the laws of Canada are the most liberal in the world, and such as prevent the litigation which breeds so much bad feeling between people in the United States and costs them so dear in lawyers' fees.

Threatened with Loss of Hearing, Sick and Sight From the Ravages of Catarrh. Pe-ru-na Cured Him. "I Feel Like a Young Man Again." Mr. J. W. Fuller. A GREAT many remedies to temporarily relieve catarrh have been devised from time to have been devised from time to time, such as sprays, snuffs, creams and other local applications, but, as a rule, the medical profession has little or no enthusiasm in the treatment of catarrh. It is generally pronounced by them to be incurable. to be incurable. It therefore created a great sensation in medical circles when Dr. Hartman announced that he had devised a compound which would cure catarrh permanently. The remedy was named Peruna and in a short time became known to thousands of catarrh sufferers north, south, east and west. Letters testifying to the fact that Peruna is a radical cure for catarrh began to pour in from all directions. Thousands of such letters are on file in the office of The Peruna Medicine Co. Rev. E. Stubenvoll, Pella, Wis., writes: "I feel obliged to extend you my personal thanks for my complete restoration. All through the winter I suffered from throat and lung trouble, but recovered my entire health by the use of your excellent remedy, Peruna." The following letter from a prominent gentleman of Los Angeles, is a case in point: Mr. J. W. Fuller, President of the Jewelers' Association of Los Angeles, Cal., has been in business in that city for seventeen years out of the forty-five that he has been engaged in business.

It affected my sense of smell, hearing and sight. I spent lots of money with doctors and the use of local applications to relieve me but to no purpose, until my attention was called to the wonderful effects of Peruna. "I must say that I met with most surprising and satisfactory results. Peruna took hold of the complaint and drove it entirely out of my system. "Although well along toward the allotted span of man's life I am pleased as a child over the results, and feel like a young man again."—J. W. Fuller.
