That famous, or rather infamous Candler letter is causing much talk in Georgia politics. It was very un timely and cannot be easily patched over. Col. G. R.

The Lexington Echo says the news papers* have already elected a govern or for Georgia, but probably the peo ple will have something to say a lit tle later on. A special from Brunswick- says: ♦*lt is believed that Spencer Atkinson will sweep the state for governor, ” We think the young man who said this made a mistake. He should have said it is believed that the state will sweep Atkinson out of hearing. He has no more cbanceof being gov ernor of Georgia than Tom Watson has of being president of these United Slates.—Tattnall Journal. Come, brother; don’t make such an exaggerated comparison.

That Handler letter wa's 'not so much of a personal matter to Judge Meyerhardt as it is becoming with the admirers of Gov. Atkinson. Georgia has never had a better gov ernor than W. Y. Atkinson. Livingston is trying to establish a post-office in Douglas county by the name of “Sunshine.” He had better distribute a little sunshine in this neck o’ the woods, else it will be a dreary time on primary day.

The roundi«g up of Gov. Atkin son’s administration is reaching a point where it may be fairly estima ted and without any real diversity to | his good stewardship. As the way of I newspapers, he has been sharply I criticised when editorial buffoonery was short of exciting incident*, and „ <lot of demogogy has pranced around under the guise of fearless expression but as a matter of fact, Gov. Atkin son has stood the test of stewardship under much pressure as well as any of his reent predecessors, and Geor gia has not suffered at his hands. It is true that there has been much said of |an Atkinson ring, but it would be a matter for a man to remain in BErrgia polities whithout being some of a ring, and there is probably HO danger in the man who has a ring of his own.—Brunswick Adver tiser.

Headaches, indigestion, biliousness and are simply Nature’s warnings of serious disease is thing to do io to tamedF the system with Dr. Pierce’s Discovery. It vitalizes and Swvigorates the entire constitution. It helps the liver to filter out all bilious impurities. It gives tire digestive and nutritive organs power to extract nourishm nt from the food and turn it gifo rich, red. healthy blood. It creates appetite, good digestion’, and solid, muscular strength. It is far superior to the mere temporary j stimulus of malt-extracts. It is better than cod liver oil emulsions because it is assimi lated by the weakest stomach. “ About fifteen years ago " writes Mr. John Mc-S Michael, editor of the Plattsburg, (Mo.) Leader,. “ I was in very poor health, had no appetite, war sluggish, and so lifeless it seemed impossible for J me to do anything that required effort.

The boys study like the Chinese children do. They stand with thtir backs to tht teacher, swinging their bodies to and fro, and shouting their lessons at the top of their voices. Think of what a babel that is when twenty boysjare screaming the lessons at one time!
