FULL TICKET FOH BIBB'S VOTERS A New Polling Place Has Been Opened at Town of Manchester, CANDIDATES WANT NO HACKS Made an Effort to Bring the Matter Before the Executive Commit tee But Failed to Get Action, The County Democratic Executive Com mittee held a meeting yesterday afternoon to make the final arrangements for the primaries on Monday. The most important thing done at the meeting was to establish a new voting precinct at (Manchester, which as an in corporated town has 'the right to a sepa rate 'precinct. Heretofore 'Manchester has voted with Vineville. The question of the use of ‘hacks and carriages at the primaries was brought up in an informal way by the candidates. They had intended petitioning the com mittee to .take action preventing the use of the hacks, but the committee had journed when the question came up and a quorum not being present it was not deem ed advisable to reassemble the committee. Hacks and carriages from a considerable pot lion of the expense of the candidates ami it was their desire, or the desire oi some of them to avoid this expense, and ask ,the committee to put a penalty on the use of hacks. . But the individual members of the com mittee present when the matter came u.p did not see how this could be done effec tively. They were of the opinion that the proper method for the candidates to adopt, if they desired to do away with the hacks, would be to meet and agree among them selves not to use the hacks. At any rate no action was taken and it is more than probable that the hacks and the livery men will reap their accustomed harvest on election day. Everything is now ready for the prim aries. The ‘papers for the election go up to Camp Northen today and the managers or-the election there, Messrs. Tom Sherei, J. A. Thomas. Jr.. Robert N*. Hazlehurst and Fritz Jones will have charge of the polls at the camp. The Polls at .East Macon, Godfrey and Findlay’s foundry will remain open until 6 o’clock instead of 3 o’clock as hereto fore. Following is the ticket that will be voted for: Ticket for Democratic nominees to be voted for on June 6th, 1898, in Bibb coun ty. Georgia. In voting,this ticket I pledge myself to support the nominees or the Democratic party, and that no ballot cast at this prim ary shall be counted unless- this pledge is printed thereon and not erased therefrom.

To Commemorate Feminine Features of the Work in Irans-Mississippi Exposition. Omaha, Neb., June 4. —A touch origi nality has surrounded most of the plans of the Trans- Mississippi Exposition in Omaha, but nothing mure clever than the composite picture which will be reproduced on (lie official medal, says the Chicago Record. , Forty-four of the handsomest women oi the western states wrre cnosen by compe tent judges and their picturese forwarded to the oftic.al photographer. Tntse wa men illustrate th strongest type of West ern -womanhood, and the result in eomno t .ite form has most thoroughly satisfac tory. ‘ - lae picture shows a face at on'e strong and lovable, a tine profile with a strikingly intellectual east. • Referring to those women whose faces have been .neorporated in this typical pne tognaph special mention must be made of 'Mrs. Winona S. Sawyer, of Lincoln, who has been wisely chosen as president of the woman’s boaid. She embodies in he - gen eral characteristics a sigularly broad, com prehensive spirit, which brings everyone into.happy accord where she presides. Mrs. Thomas Kimball, ,the first vice president, is wejl known as a public spirited woman, whose weialth and leisure have been devo.- ted to the best in woman’s interests. Mrs. Harford is chairman of the exec utive committee, and will preside over all its deliberations. She,is among Omaha’s most prominent club women, and has an unusual share of ability and rare judg ment. 'Miss Harford is a close ally of her clever mother, and a valued assistant, as also is Mrs. N.

Instructions have been received by. the agency in this city of the Pacific Mail Steamer Company, to retain in the port of ‘Squ Jose for further orders the steamers City of Panama and Newport, both of which are now anchored off the roadstead. It is believed that the Newport may be ordered to return to San Francisco to be utilized as a government transport and will transfer her cargo, mail and, passen gers to the 'City of Panama, which will then proceed 'with them southward. Deafness Cannot be Cured. By local applications, as they cannot reach the diseased portions of the ear. There is only one way To cure deafness and that is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused (by an inflamed condition of the muieous lining of the Eustachian tube. When this tube gets inflamed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing and when it is entirely closed deafness is the result, and unless the inflammation can 'be taken out and this tube restored to its normal condition hearing will be destroyed forever; nine eases out of ten are caused by catarrh, 'which is nothing 'but an in flamed condition of ‘the mucous surfaces. We will give one hundred dollars for any case of deafness (caused by- catarrh) that cannot be cured by Hall’s Catarrh Cure. Send for circulars, free ' F. J. CHENEY & CO., Toledo. O.

Washington, June *4 —“Notes on the Philippines islands,” have been issued by the stale department as No. 131 of the ad vance sheets of the consular reports. One expert extensively .quoted, Frank Karuth says that extensive gold deposits have turned up quite near the sea, assuring a large output for many years to come. It has all been proved-that they extend over a wide district. Some facts of interest aside from mining are noted. For instance the Philippine archipelago contains nearly 2,000 islands. Two of them are larger than Ireland. Luzon with 42,000 and Mindad with 38,000 square miles. Earthquakes are not infrequent. The rainfall is not excessive, nor is it continuous. The climate js very healthful for a tropical region and diseases such as yellow fever are unknown. The natives are mostly malarys., but in the interior are remnants of a race of Papuan origin. The family tie is very strong, children are orderly, parents respected and the nfte has an inbred courtesy and prudence and ready hospitality is never mi?sing. Eight million natives inhabit the Philippines; food resources are ample and famine is unknown, management keeps more people in poor cirxumstances than any one other cause. To be successful one must look ahead so that wtmn a favorable opportun ity presents itself he is ready to take advantage of it. a little forethought will also save much expense and valuable time. A prudent and careful man will keep a bottle of Chamberlain’s Colic. Cholera and D.airhoea Remedy in the house, the shift less fellow jViil wait untH necessity com pels it and then ruin his best horse going tar a doctor and have a big doctor’s bill to pay besides; one pays out 25c, the other is out a hundred dollars and then wonders why his neighbor is getting richer while he_ is getting poorer.

SICKLES TALKS ABOUTJHEWAR He Told the Students of Union College That for Quarter of a Century STRUGGLE HAS BEEN PENDING Remember the Maine is Not the Sole Cry That Urges People On, But an Uprising, Schenectady, iN. Y., June 4—Dan id E. Sickles last night delivered a lecture foefore thh students of Union college. His sub ject was, “Spain,” to which country he was formerly a United States minister. He sought to explain in connection with the topic of Spain, the origin and cause of" the present war which he said had been im minent and inevitable lor -more than a quarter of a century. The cause, he said, ha'd however existed much longer, growing out of the different factors arising in the relative civilizations and governments produced from the sys tems —one of independent self-government growing out of the people as the fountain base; the other was the residium o.f the government existing on the basis Os an ancient despotism and a monarchist sys tem which permitted cruelties, exactions and treatment that (Americans were ignor ant or. The cry of “Remember the (Maine,” was not the cause of the war; but poured upon the elements that existed, it crystallized and made powerful the current of hostility of principles that statesmen recognized and foresaw, but the people would realize later as they had the differences between slavery and freedom which caused the war of ’6l. General Sickles said that history was only repeating itself: that there were irre concilable differences between the fruits of Spanish colonial despotism and Amer ican ideas of self-government, self-respect and the freedom of manhood, hence the inevitable reason, sooner or later, war, and now it has come. He said we must ■ keep the Philippines. It was a consecrated 'ggrqund won by American valor and the favor of divine providence. The Maine was avenged at (Manila. He looked to it as the seed planted that should cause the American people through their representatives to enact legislation that would restore the American flag and the American ship, • the supremacy in transportation and upbuilding of a coun try that is only held when wooden ships were the sole carriers and fighters. “The war,” he said, “has solidified the country. All our soldiers are now boys in blue. North and South are solid under the flag. The Anglo-Saxon race is united for humanity and civilization. lit only remains for the statesmen and representatives of the .people in congress to enact the laws that will solidify the result of energy and the brain products of America’s sons.” A Texas Wonder.

The Regiments to Make it Up Will Number About Forty- Five Hundred. San Francisco, June 4. —So far as has been given out, the second expedition to» the iPhillipines will consist of the First Colorado and Tenth Pennsylvania volun teer infantry regiments, the First battal ion of the Twenty-third infantry' and two light batteries from the Utah volunteer artillery. The Utah artillery wag not included in the orders originally issued, but it is semi-officially stated at the headquarters of (Major General Ottis that battery A, Captain Young, and 'battery B, Captain Grant, would go with the next transport fleet. , It is also regarded as probable that one battery of the Third United States artil lery will also be directed to go with the same expedition. The battalion of the Twenty-third infan try, United States army, which has been ordered to be in readiness to embark by next Tuesday, consists of companies D. E. F and H, under 'command of Lieutenant Colonel J. W. French. ■lncluding a company of engineers, the troops designated in the order of Wednes day night for the expedition number ap proximately 2,600 officers and men. The ■China. Zalandria, Colon, Centennial and Ohio ought to carry’ 4.500. Colonel Barry, of the Seventh California, received assurances some days ago that his company’ would go with this expedition, and especial efforts have been made to thoroughly equip the regiment and he ex pects to be included in a later order. Expedition Lieutenant J. B. Bennett, of the Seventh United States infantry, has been appointed adjutant of'the department of California.’ A dispatch from Senator TJiurston has been received stating that the secretary of war had instructed General Merritt to include the Nebraska troops in the second expedition. Including the Utah light artillery, which it is learned at a late hour has been substi tuted for the company of engineers to foe sent to Manila, the second expedition will consist of 2,535 officers and men.

Jenkins, noble grand. Mrs. .Mary Simpson, vice noble grand; ‘Mrs. R. R. Grier, secretary (Mrs. Lula Frink, treasurer. Deputy District Grand (Master T. E. Ryals exemplified the unwritten work and presided at the election. The lodge is growing at each meeting, and has nearly a hundred members. ENORMOUS POSSIBILITIES. Possession of the Philippines Will Give an Advantage to Merchants. The commercial opportunities awaiting the United States in the countries adjacent to the Fhillipiue Islands are shown by a series of tables made public by the Bu reau of stiatisiics at Wasnmgtou, says tne Chicago Times-Herald. An examination of the details of these tafoles shows that the purchases made by those countries adjacent to the iPhillipines are largely or the class of articles produc ed in the Untied States. The imports into China, lor instance, included in 181*6 more than $64,000,000 worth-of cotton goods, against less than $40,000,000 in the previous year, $4,000,000 of woollen goods against less than $3,000,000 worth in 189a, an in crease in imports of wheat Hour from §762,707 in 1892, to §1,216,668 in 1806; an increase in machinery from $674,572 in 1892 to $1,668,078 in 1896. The exports of cotton cloths from tlie United States to China increased from 27,- 076,642 yards in 1893 to 140,121,035 in 1897, mineral oils from 27,878,055 gallons in 18’93 to 42,627,184 gallons in 1897, provisions from $25,942 in 1893 to $45,640 in 1897, man ufactures of tobacco from $67,640 in 1597 worth in 1893 to $229,956 worth in 1897, total exports of merchandise from the United (States to China in 1897, being three times as much as in 1593. , From the United States to the British East Indies the exports of cotton cloth also increased in 1897 as compared with 1893, although they were not as great in 1897 as in 1894 and in 1895. The exports from the United States to the Dutch East Indies nearly doubled from 1893 to 1897, the chief articles being naval stores and mineral oils, the increase in the latter be ing from 15,560,640 gallons in 1893 to 24.- 935,998 in 1897, in the face of the competi tion from ‘Russia (and elsewhere. The tables also show the steady growth of exports from the United States to Hong- Kong, which, as the distributing point for •that part of 'the world, is an especially’ im portant index to the trade possibilities of that section, the tables showing exports to Hong-Kong in 1897 being nearly 50 per cent greater than in 1894. The most rapid growth of commerce with that part cf the world is show’ll by the tables of imports into Japan. They show a steady growth from 1893 to 1897 CASTOTIIA The he- /? r.iatio ( aa ilgiiM’.ure / x -. Z- ■-i• • - .... vrappt layTTsupplies. Recruiting Office for Engi neers Has Opened at San Francisco. San Francisco, June 4.—The company of United States volunteers from Willetts’ Point, sixty men and three officers, has or ders to remain here for the present and recruit to a total of 150. It will be necessary to get eighty-four men, six of the company being away, but available. As this is the ranking arm of the service, and as the men receive a little better pay than in the infantry, no diffi culty is expected in securing the requisite number on short notice. A recruiting of fice will be opened today. Immense supplies of mining stores, im plements, etc., are being received here un der the direction of Captain Potter, of the engineer corps of the regular army. He is an expert on the subject, and will take to Manila with him everything necessary to strengthening the fortifications. Captain Thompson, chief signal officer to General Merritt, is (also buying largely. He has charge of the signal service of the army olf invasion, and will have under him over one hundred experts. It is probable that the different islands will be conected ■by cable, which are being purshased. Armored cables’of sufficoent strength were not obtainable here and were sent from the East.
