The Climax—What?
The Dreyfus case has France by the
ears. A little while aim it may have her
by tae throat.
There are same opera'bouffe features at
tendant upon the z.uia trail, tue Gallic
temperament is dramatic. Your Freovh
mau always imagines amiseif us bwiug on
me other aide oi tae luoaigats. Tne read

it is difficult to penetrate with anything
approuomi.g exactitude me motive of
zoia.
There has been nothing Hugoesque in
the career of the 'author ot “Nana." He
■writes nooks, .primarily, lor notoriety; and,
dn a secondary way, nor the big checits his
■publishers send him. lie is a dissector and
not a diagnostician. As a literary celeo
iity ne stands in tne same relation to the
reader as would a physician who, answer
ing a call, says: ‘You have typao.d fever,
any friend, two dollars. Gooa day," leav
ing you poorer in purse and minus a pre
scription. tilth a persistency, mattes
ibeen ootn astonishing and ludicrous, Zoia
tins tried lor years io .beat down the doors
of the French Academy. And with a con
sistency that has been both sincere and
exceptional, tine forty immortals nave
barred his entrance. Thiis exclusion has
stamped bum as one wno seeks literary
name by unapproved methods.
lie is the central figure today in the
greatest trial in France since that uigut
when parliamentary judgment ■was passed
upon Louis Capet, whose royal head was
thrown to the hungry and ensanguined
guilioitiiie.
lit stands charged with publicly defam
ing govermental and military oiidcials. He
retorts that truth is not defamation and
■that publicity may remove the bandage
itroiu the eyes of tue French people, ale
boldly asserts that the trial oi Dreyfus was
U farce. He proclaims himself the cham
pion of Justice, and throws the gauntlet
into the faces of the potent chiefs of the
Frtnch army.
Such courage is rarely witnessed. It has
the martyr llawr about it. It may have
the martyr's lei minatiion, for the life of
Emile Zola today could not be insured for
a sou.
The generals of the array, a majority of
the legislature, and the Faure government
solemnly asseverate that Captain Dreyfus
was fairly and legally tried and convicted.
There are those who deprecate the re
opening of the Dreyfus case, arguing that
one man’s imprisonment is nothing com
pared to the morale of the French army
find the safety of the republic.
Again, there are others (and their pa
triotism cannot be questioned, though their
discretion may) who predicate that the se
crecy which characterized the Dreyfus
ease and the opposition of militarism to its
retrial are for the purpose of precluding
inquisition so far that the caged man now
on the “island of Devil," was made the
scapegoat for more distinguished sinners.
The political complexion of the two main
alignments—Zolaisis and anti-Zolaists—
are uniquely interestin.The Socialists
and Anarchists are followers of Zola, not
that they love the “Apostle of Realism,”
tout that they hate the army and its allied
potencies. Your bourgois shouts: “A ‘has
Zola! not because he hates the prisoner
much, but because ihe hates the {Semite
more.
Many splits have taken place in ithe
chamber of deputies—in fact, that body
is taking on a new political aspect. Drey
fusism has outsped all other issues.
The (French has a word, “denouement,”
signifying discovery of a plot, the solation
of a mystery, issue, outcome.
Ah. the denouement! What will it be?
Mill the man on horseback subvert the
(Republic, and will the sword once more
rule in La Belle France, as it did a hun
dred years ago?
Union AgainstZShysters.
The Publishers’ Association of New York
•has offered rewards aggregating $5,000 for
proof against lawyers who have excited
groundless actions or legal proceedings
against any daily newspaper of the big
metropolis. The offer is warranted by the
penal code of New York state, which is
intended to protect the press from unwar
ranted assault and the various schemes of
libel blackmailers.
In so far as we know this is the first at
tempt of publishers to combine against a
certain sort of lawyers who lie awake
nights in the hope of falling into a night
mare ■where some one can be conceived to
have been slandered, and spend the hours
oi daytime hunting up people supposed to
have been maligned, though they be inno
cent of their alleged injuries.
The shyster lawyer will be forced to find
some more remunerative field for his car
rion calling. The business of the courts
must not be continually interrupted in ar
-I‘iving at 6 cent verdicts.
This action on the part of the Publish
ers’ Association of New York, is evidently
in line with the policy to be adopted by
ihe American Newspaper Publishers’ Asso
ciation. for the advertisement of the re
ward is signed not only by Edward Payson
Call, president of rhe New York Assoma
lion, but by W. C. Bryant, secretary of
both the New York and greater associa
tion.
A point of importance is that when a
lawyer approaches some one alleged to
have been libeled offering to share possi
ble profits, the victim can act as a witness
for the -publishers, secure at once his re
ward and not wait for any improbable re
ward from the courts.
By Popular Vote.
Ex-Secretary John G. Carlisle, in his
article in The Forum, advocating the elec
tion of the president and vice president by
direct vote of the people, declares that
“this is the honest, democratic and Ameri
can method of ascertaining the choice of
the people.” He says further that “it will
scarcely be contended by one who has
Carefully examined the subject that our
institutions will be made less secure, or
that any substantial interest will be im
periled.” If these two statements be true
beyond question. his remedy for the ex
isting evil would seem to be commendable.
Mr. Carlisle suggests a constitutional
amendment providing that the president
and vice president shall be chosen by the
people of tie various states by ballot on a
fixed day—each state to be entitled to
electoral votes equal to the number of its
Federal senators and representatives, and
each person voted for "shall be entitl d
to have counted in his favor a number of
the electoral or presidential votes of each
state corresponding to the proportion of
the popular vote received by him in such
state.”
This remedy is not Mr. Carlisle’s by v r
tue of priority of discovery. It has grown
to be a popular belief. Whether states
men as wise and patriotic as those who
founded the republic are ready to make
the change remains to be seen.
Advertising.
Lavish and extravagant advertising has
been one of the rocks upon which many a
worthy venture has been wrecked. Judi
cious advertising pays, and should be fa
vored; the class of people whom it will
reach should be considered, a bicycle ad
vertisement read but once does very little
good, and for that reason you should aim
to reach your prospective customers often
When you select a method of advertising
keep hammering away on the same place
until you have impressed the people you
are after with the idea that you have got
a good thing and know it, and are not
afraid to spend money to convince them of
the fact. A poor article is seldom adver
tised very long, and the public is discern
ing enough to realize that you would not
persistently advertise a poor wheel.
Scattering advertisements in hotel lob
bies, city directories, maps, programs, etc.,
are usually procurid at a cost very much
out of proportion to the results achieved,
and should not be used unless your profits
are providing you with a safe surplus.
One inch in a good local paper, displayed
in the same place each issue, will do more
to keep yourself and your bicycle before
Ute public than many advertisements of
the kind mentioned above.—Advance Cata
logue of Cleveland Bicycles.
Folly of Writing Letters.
The imbecility of letter writers is a sub
ject as -old as the world. As a corallary to
the French proverb, “Look for the
woman,” one can well say: “Look for the
letter.” De Lome is not the first, nor will
he be the last. Those who could stand on
his right and left and acclaim in chorus:
“Me, too, Dupuy,” are legion.
Letters have caused wars—wars that
have drenched the world in blood. The
disastrous Moscow campaign was caused
by a letter. Emperor Paul and the em
press dowager would not give the sister and
daughter in wife to the “scourge of Eu
rope.” Napoleon discovered the truth by
means of a letter, the Austrian alliance
followed, and them the ruin of the grand
army amid the snows of Russia. The Brit
ish minister, Sackville-West, wrote a let
ter for which Cleveland handed him his
passports. Blaine wrote the Mulligan let
ters, -and failed to become president of the
grea test republic in the history of the
world. ’ The chief factor in the conviction
of Jackson and Walling was the letter
written by the former to Will Wood. Then
•here were the celebrated “Baby Bunting”
letters, and in the already famous case of
Lloyd versus Lloyd the episode that cul
minated in the divorce court was the ab
straction of a leter from the desk of the
defendant. Talleyrand, statesman, philos
opher and genius, said: “Never write a
letter, and never burn one.” Sage advice
is this. If there must be letter writing let
the other fellow do it, and when you re
ceive a communication from him don’t de
stroy it. Let your motto be: “Don’t
write, don’t burn.”
Preacher Praises Press.
Rev. E. H. Rawlings, of Richmond, Va.,
Methodist Church., delivered a most elo
quent sermon recently on “The Bible in
Christian Culture,” to a large and inter
esting congregation.
In speaking of different sources of cul
ture, he said, in part:
“One of the greatest sources of culture
is the newspaper. One of the greatest in
stitutions in modern society is the newspa
per. So interwoven is it in the very fabric
of things that there is not a phase of our
civilization it does not touch and influence
I't is not always what we would like to
have it. Nor is anything else earthly or
will anything earthly ever be all we would
like to have it this side the Pearly Gates.
But so close does it come to us, so vitally
touches us, that we cannot ignore it if we
would, and we should not if we could.
"The newspaper is not only here, but,
by every token, has come to stay. I for
one am glad it has. While we rebuke firm
ly and persistently its shortcomings, we
will do its kindly. We will not by indif
ference and opposition turn It over to the
devil and the politicians, but by our very
interest claim and keep it for God a-'d
rlghteosuness. We will give it our sym
pathy. we will give it our support and
sometimes our prayers, and will do all in
our power to make its spirit in modern life
worthy of its great influence and power.”
DANGER IN SODA.
Serious Results Sometimes Follow its Exces
sive Use. .
Common soda is ail right in its place
and indispensable in the kitchen and for
cooking and washing purposes, but it was
never intended for a medicine and people
who use it as such will some day regret it.
We refer to the common,use of soda to
relieve heartburn or sour stomach, a habit
w*hich thousands of people practice almost
dally and one which is frought with dan
ger; moreover the soda only gives tem
porary relief and In the end the stomach
trouble only gets worse and worse.
The soda acts as a mechanical irritant
to the walls of the stomach and bowels
and eases are on record where it accu
mulated in the intestines, causing death
by inflamation or peritonitis.
Dr. Harlandson recommends as the saf
est and sure cure for sour stomach (acid
dyspepsia) an excellent preparation sold
by druggists under the name of Stuart’s
dyspepsia tablets. These tablets are large
2u grain lozenges, very pleasant to taste
and contain the natural acids, peptones
and digestive elements essential to good
digestion, and when taken after meals
they digest the food perfectly and prompt
ly before it has time to foment, sour and
poison the blood and nervous system.
Dr. M uerth states that he invariably
uses Stuart’s Dyspepsia Tablets in all
eases of stomach derangements and finds
them a certain cure not only for sour
stomach but by promptly- digesting the
food they create a healthy appetite, in
crease flesh and strengthen the action of
the heart and liver. They are not a cath
artic, but intended only for stomach dis
eases and weakness and will be found reli
able in any stomach trouble except cancer
of the stomach .All druggists sell Stuart’s
Dyspepsia Tablets at 50c per package.

CAUGHT AT LAST.
Sam Thomas of Swainsboro, Wanted by the
Police.
Sam Thomas, who, up to a short time
ago, was a well known resident of Swains
boro, but who has been “wanted” by the
police on the charge of larceny and run
ning a blind tiger, was arrested yesterday
afternoon by Officers Plunkett and Du
mas.
He was taken to the barracks, and while
there it is understood that he acknowl
edged the truth of the charges against
him.
He will be taken back to Swainsboro
some time today.

Famous Washington Parrots.
Chief Justice Fuller a Mexican par
rot of which he i« very fond and of whose
Acquirements he Is exceedingly proud. Its
latest accoinplishiueiit is to call the chief
justice “grandpa. ” The title was not sc
plear ing at first, but since bis last married
daughter, Mrs. Beecher, has presented the
family with two grandcl. Idren in two
years be Is perfectly resigned to the inev
itable title, even from a parrot’s lipa.
There are several distinguished friends of
thochief justice who talk parrot with him
and swap bright sayings cf their pets.
For one, the British embassador bas an
exceedingly talkative and well Informed
bird. His name is Jacob, and he bas been
a pet in the family for 13 years- Not long
ago Jacob was blown from the window
seat of the dining room of the embassy
and was picked up in the street by a boy—
a good boy, as it happened—and conse
quently was restored after about a week,
in which the family n uly went distract
ed.
The good boy was rewarded by the finest
atlas that Sir Julian could find, with his
name in it. as a reward of merit, and the
good boy is the envy of all his school
mates.
The wife of the Mexican minister, Mme.
Romero, has a.parrot who is a fine lin
guist. He speaks Spanish and French
and occasionally English. He is a beauti
ful Mexican bird and Is quite the Idol of
the family. Miss Mitchell, daughter of J.
J. Mitchell, cousin, of Mrs. Stanley Mat
thews, has a parrot of rare attainments,
who talks and sings. Judge Advocate
General Lieber also has a well trained par
rot.—Washington Letter in Chicago Trib

The Roots
of Life
( ancer stick s at the very roots of
life.- It is beyond all human power
to foresee its coming. In the begin
ning it is just a speck or small lump
or pimple. That is the time to s'zop
it. Don’t delay an instant. Every
pimple or mole is a possible Cancer.
In a year it may be eating your life
away. For
Cancer
Take Swift's Specific. It is the
only known cure for this deadly dis
ease. It will free the system of the
poisons that cause Cancer and other
morbid growths. Even after Cancer
has a deep foothold, it will cure, but
it takes longer. It is a medicine
that goes right down to the very
roots of life in the blood, and forces
out every vestige of impurity. It
goes to the seat of the most obstin
ate cases, which are beyond the
reach of other blood remedies.
No sufferer who cares for life can
afford to lose time with surgical
operations or torturing plasters, as
such treatment cannot reach the
blood. Swift's Specific is the
only Real Cancer Cure on the face
of the earth.

The Reasons of Jt
It is not by accident or bj' chance that
the Ivers & Pond piano is held in such
high esteem. There is a good reason for it.
The New England Conservatory of Music
did not hapen to buy 227 Ivers & Pond
pianos in preference to other makes.
There- is a reason for it. It was not merely
good luck that led nearly two hundred of
the most prominent musical and educa
tional institutions in the country to se
lect the Ivers & Pond. It was the result
of careful investigation and sound rea
son.
There are good sound reason why you
should decide upon an Ivers & Pond if
you are going to buy a piano. The reputa
tion of the makers for liberal and fair
dealing is your safeguard. The important
patented improvements found in no other
piano is another reason for deciding in
its favor. But it is the watchful and pains
taking care that follows every piano from
start to finish, and the conscientious and
intelligent attention given to even the
smallest details of construction that is the
reason why the Ivers & Pond Piano can
be depended upon to give the best results
and the best wear.

“Courted lato Court" has been meeting
