A case in point is Mayor Collier, of Atlanta, who, in answer to a letter addressed <to him by Mayor Price, of Macon, undertook to give his views as to the effect of prohibition In Atlanta. This letter seems to have brought down up upon Mayor Collier the wrath of the prohibitionists, and they propose to "show him up” some night this week. We are not Mayor Collier’s champion nor apo logist, but it occurs to us that our pro hibition friends make a mistake in assum ing that because a man does not accept prohibition as being the best solution of the liquor problem he is, necessarily, a “liquor man,*’ or is Influenced by some ulterior motive. This seems to be their Intimation as to Mayor Collier, and yet we doubt if it is justified by the facts. In the first place, Mayor Collier has never alligned himself with the so-called “liquor element,” but, on the contrary, has always been recognized as being In every sense n representative citizen of Atlanta. So much so that the was chosen for the presidency of the Atlanta Exposition Company, which position he filled with great honor and credit to himself and to the entire satis faction of everyone connected with that great enterprise. He is one of the leading business men of Atlanta and his word would be accepted anywhere. We mention these things, not so much to defend Mayor Collier from the attacks of tho prohibitionists as to show the value of his testimony when he says “high li cense and strict regulations” is a better solution of the liquor problem than pro hibition Itself. This Is our own opinion and wo are naturally resentful of the idea that anyone entertaining this opinion “be longs to” the liquor element. We do not believe Mayor Collier is any more an ad vocate of whisky than we are, but he has a right to state bls views us to the relative merits of high license and prohibition. And we do not hesitate to say that we agree with him on the proposition that high license and strict regulations are preferable to the no license and blind tig* r system. And yet we are not willing to be put down as an advocate of liquor, for we uro not. We will go as far as any one else to promote temperance. We simply be lieve that high license and strict regula tions will do more to this end than will the other system. This, as we understand it, is also Mayor Collier’s view. To attack him, therefore, is ‘to attack others who, quite .as conscientiously, think as he does. We have already commended Mayor Col lier’s views to the mayor and council of Macon, in the hope of inducing them to adopt a system that will regulate the sale of liquor in Macon as it should be regu lated. We now appeal to the temperance people of the community to insist upon some such plan of reform. In this way we may accomplish something of real value to the community and of benefit to all our citizens. Otherwise W'e will probably ac complish nothing, except to keep the com munity wrought up for the next several months. Now Russia and Germany are trying to bring about strained relations. But iwe will never have any more confidence in a European quarrel. Protectorate Over Egypt. Now that France has given in, it is be lieved that Lord Salisbury will proceed at once to establish a protectorate over Egypt. This is the step which Bismarck advised Gladstone to take years ago. The relation of Great Britain and Egypt is anomalous. It has maintained since ISB2 an occupancy, and over-lordship as to ad ministrative matters, which constituted a virtual protectorate, yet Egypt has re mained nominally a part of the Ottoman empire. The khedlve ranks at Constan tinople as an hereditary provincial Vali, or governor. The sublime porte has al ways protested against Great Britain’s oc cupancy of Egypt. France also has de nounced it, although the powers have agreed that it did not constitute a causus belli. lit has been from regard for French susceptibilities that the English govern ment has hitherto refrained from pro claiming the protectorate, which existed in all respects except in law. The holders °I Egyptian bonds in France, of whom there is a large number, would not be displeased with such a step. Os course, Turkey would protest, but that would not amount Co anything. The situation would be further cleaned by such action on the part of Great Britain. Vie beg to suggest that Atlanta extend a special invitation to Lieutenant Colonel Myrick and Colonel Berner to attend her peace jubilee. Chief Boifeuillet. Council did the right thing last night in voluntarily voting a fifty days leave of absence to Hon. John T. Boifeuillet. thus disposing of the chief of police matter for the time being. Mr. Boifeuillet made no effort whatever to retain the position after being elected clerk of the House of Repre sentatives. so that council’s action is all the more a compliment to him, it being the voluntary and unanimous opinion of that body that he was entitled to a little extra consideration under the circum- : stances. As is well known. Mr. Boifeuillet had to make a long and expensive fight for the clerkship, and although successful he will • not be able to enjoy any of the benefits of the office for some time to come, so that it is no more than right :hat his home people should stand by him in the matter. But, aside from his personal rights in the premises, it is a conceded fact that the city could not improve upon the pres ent chief of police. In fact, to have to make a chnage now would work a distinct disadvantage to the city, and council rightly concluded that it would be wiser to grant the chief a fifty days leave of absence rather than dispense with his ser vices altogether. He has made one of the most efficient and popular chiefs that ever filled that position, and we believe almost I everyone will be pleased at council’s ac- I tion. , Weatßer forecast: Sam Jones and warm er tomorrow night. Lieutenant Colonels. The gra ifying announcement is made that Governor Candler does not propose to ' prostitute the title of lieutenant colonel i by paying off political debts therewith, as some of his predecessors have done. There was a time when to be a member I of the governor’s staff was an honor that any Georgian might feel proud of, but of Late years the title has been conferred mainly on political workers of the suc cessful candidate, many of whom failed to measure up to the standard of citizenship which had always been considered requi site to such an appointment. Governor Atkinson used these staff ap pointments solely as political patronage, and managed to gather about him the largest and most varied assortment of staff officers ever before known. His prodigal ity in this matter might have proven a good thing for the uniform makers, had it not been that more than two-thirds of the eighty or ninety lieutenant colonels created by Governor Atkinson did not created by him did not think enough of the compliment to invest in a uniform. In limiting the number of staff appoint ments, Governor Candler will bring about a welcome change; one that will make the title of lieutenant colonel mean something. Spain refuses to give up her pawn ticket on the Philippines. That was a pretty bluff France made in the Fashoda affair. Spreads Like Wildfire. You can’t keep a good thing down. News of it travels fast. When things are “the best” they become the “best selling.” Abraham Hare, a leading drugigst, of Bellevue, 0., writes: “Electric Bitters are the best selling bitters i have ever handled in my 20 years experience.” You know why? Most diseases begin in disorders of stomach, liver, kidneys, bowels, blood and nerves. Electric Bitters tones up the stom ach, regulates the liver, kidneys and bowels, purifies the blood, strengthens the nerves, hence cures multitudes of mala dies. It builds up the entire system.

Banks. By Associated Press. Victoria, B. C., Nov. 2 —Frank J. Walk er, of Atlin City, who came down by the Farraton en route to Chicago brings mea gre news of a story current when he left the north of the loss of a phrty of seven Californians headed by A. F. Englishart, of Pasedena, from which locality all hail ed originally. The casualty occurred in a swamp lying between the new gold fields and the term inus of steam navigation from Bennett lake. As nearly as could be ascertained the party lost the trail being inexperienced backwoodsmen and wandering into quick sand forming the bed of a dry creek were engulfed. A searching party was sent from Atlin City to investigate but nothing had been heard from them when Walker left. The names are not obtainable. A Sure Sign of Croup. Hoarseness in a child that is subject to croup is a sure indication of the approach of that disease. If Chamberlain's Couch Remedy is given as soon as the child be comes hoarse, or even after the croupy cough has appeared, it will prevent the attack. Many mothers who have croupy children always keep this remedy at hand and find that it saves them much trouble and worry. It can always be depended upon and is pleasant to take.. For sale by H. J.

Milwaukee, Wis., Nov. 2—The state su preme court in the case of (Banker John Barth, of the defunct South side Savings Bank against John Graf and other bonds men of Banker John Koetting, has render ed a decision in favor of the plaintiff. The case involves over SIOO,OOO in property of Banker Koetting which his bondsmen tried to dispose of but were restrained from doing so pending a decision of the court. The decision is favorable to the creditors of the bank which failed in July 1893. New Selections. The wise elocutionist is now laying in her winter stock of selections. We say “her” because tho masculine elocutionist has become rapidly extinct since the regu lations against lynching were so easily evaded. This has left tho business largely in tho hands of a few professional women and a largo number of promising ama teurs. In a community with as many churches as ours it is our proudest boast that lovely woman is not amenable to re straint in tho same degree that ruder man is; hence the number of uninterrupted re citers. But the coming season offers a pleasing diversion from the prevalent monotony of the art. A brand new lot of selections, all founded on tho war, will be launched upon a patient public. There will be, among others: “The Boy of El Caney.” “ The Dying Marino” (piano accompani ment). “The Child of Guantanamo.” “The Tale of a Turret.” “Tho Powder Monkey of the Bomba seen. ” “The Mule of Matanzas” (with imita tions). “What Captain Philip Said.” “The Bursting of the Dam” (dedicated to Captain Bob Evans). —Cleveland Plain Dealer. Wanted to Vnload. Captain Barnaby of the United States coast survey steamer Blake tells a charac teristic anecdote of Captain Robley D. Evans of the United States battleship lowa. While aboard the Blake at Key West Lieutenant Commander Edward D. Tausig, hydrographic inspector, went alongside the lowa, which was lying eight miles off the port. Hailing Captain Evans, who was leaning against a rope lift* line which had been substituted for the rails removed in case of action, Mr. Tausig askeef the doughty commander if he had any message to send to the depart ment at Washington, an ho would leave for there next day. “Tell them for me, Tausig,” said the captain, “that I have a cargo of ammuni tion on board the lowa that I am mighty anxious to be allowed to discharge.” The reply produced a laugh, which was heartily joined in by the bluejackets on the lowa who were grouped nt-or the cap tain. The message wr-s subsequently de livered, and it was not long alter that the cargo of aromunitien w.s being vigorous ly discharged from the icwa. CASTOR IA For Infants and Children.

While fishing in the Schuylkill river the other day Harry Davis, a Bridgeport lad, caught a huge but singularly deformed eel. It was long enough to be knotted about the fisherman’s waist and as thick in places as a man's wrist, but in the mid dle, where it should have been thickest, the eel was no bigger than a baby’s finger. On examination Davis found at the place of deformity something hard and metallic. H<- scraped off the slima and brought to light a broad gold band—a wedding ring —with the inscription: “Paul to May, 1890. Mizpah.” Evidently the eel in its very infancy had either been caught, en circled with the ring and then returned to its element, or else the ring had been lost in the river and the eel bad contrived somehow to get it on.—Philadelphia Rec ord.
