FOR CONGRESS:
HON. GORDON LEE.
LEADING POPULIST
CRITICISE WATSON.
Hon R, A, Giddens, one of the
leading populists of Whitlield
county, says the Dalton Citizen,
who considers Tom Watson one
of the greatest men that ever
lived, is criticising his stand in
the gubernatorial race. His let
ter to this efleet, and which is
tilled with a number of excellent
points on why Governor Holte
Smith should bo re elected, fol
lows :
E liior Citizen:
The platform promises that
Governor Hoke Smith stood on,
which were so overwhelmingly
endorsed by the people of Geor
gia, he s^ill ptands on. Two-
t' ads of his promises huve been
redeemed and are now Georgia
law.s
Everybody knows that the pro
hibition bill blocked the action
of the legislature for almost half
the session. Governor Smith did
all that anybody could have done,
consider,ng the (ircumstances.
Nobody doubts but what he will
do all in his power to place the
remainder of his promises on the
statute books if re-elected.
Those who oppose his reflec
tion must have some reason for
their opposition. They may be
opposed to the redaction of
freight and passenger rates,
they may be for free passes,
thev may be opposed to state
prohibition, or they may be op'
posed to African disfranchise
ment.
Governor Smith Relieves in
treating the railroads fair and
more than one railroad official
has said thJt he had been treated
right, and had no complaint to
make against Governor Smith;
but at the same time our gover
nor is pledged, and he is deter
mined that the railroads shall not
mistreat the people of Georgia.
Gan any saue voter object to
that? Free passes may be a very
pleasant special privilege; but
can all of the people have free
passes? Equal rights to all and
special privileges to none is deni
ocratic doctrine. Does anybody
object to Governor Smith on this
score?
Governor Smith signed the bill
and now stands by it, for state
prohibition. He says it is a step
upward and on a higher plane of
civilization. This is certainly on
the right side. Is the selling and
drinkiug of liquor an element, of
morals or of prosperity? Gieat
God, what, a question!
What southern mail or what
Georgian will uot vote for the
amendment to the constitution
to eliminate the ignorant and
purchasable negro as a political
factor in Georgia? As a blind
tool in the hands of mtmied po
liticians he has been used to cor
rupt and debauch the ballot box
more than all other agencies put,
together. Stephen A. Douglas,
of llinois, once said that, this is
a white man’s government, made
by white men and should be ad
ministered and controlled by
white men. I beg you to remem
ber that Douglas was the demo
cratic nominee for president
against Abraham |Linceln. Lin
coln said he believed in freeing
the negroes, but not in giving
them the power of the ballot,.
Governor Smith endorses and
stands on the same platform.
For the life of me I cannot see
svh.y any fair-minded man can re
fuse to vote for the re-election of
Hoke Smith. I have been an ar
dent admirer and follower of
Tom Watson for fifteen years.
He is perhaps the most magnetic
and brilliant man in the state.
He is the author of the free de
livery, a piece of statesmanship
that has sent the rays of enlight
enment into our country homes,
and its grand and ennobling ef
fects will be felt and blessed by
unborn millions yet to be. Dur
ing the Cleveland administration
if bacchanalian revelry, he seems
an oasis amidst a barren and
sandy desert,. After his death
the country children of Georgia
will, and ought to, erect a monu
ment to his name and fame, that
will catch the first glance of the
rising sun and receive his last
lingering touch in his setting.
Hut no man can aflord to merge
his - individuality. Great men
make great blunders. I am sore
ly grieved and mortified at Wat
son’s \ picking and nagging at
lloko Smith. Watson said he
supported Hoke Smith for the
principal cause of negro disfran
chisement. Clark Howell said
the primaries protected and
guarded white supremacy. 1
can’t see what Watson means
and certainly think he has blund
ered. Watson seems to regret
that he supported Hoke Smith in
the last election. He places him
self in the ugly and unseemly at
titude of having slapped Clark
Howell in the face when Clark
was trying his best to give him
good advice. He is tryiug to
hold tht stirrup while the old po
litical ring vaults into I he saddle.
Then we have it—the dog has re
turned to his vomit and the sow
to her wallowing in the niiie.
God grant that the forces of
reform shall not be staid or turn
ed back, and that the morail
trend of the state is neither kill
ed nor scotched.

Sobering Up.
In the April American Maga
zine “The Interpreter” delivers
himself of a tremendously inter
esting temperance talk. He
savs, in part:
It is not in drunkenness it
self and alone that I find my
chief objection to the use of al
cohol—although thA sight of a
reeling, sodden creature in the
street, or of a man of more con
trol or habituated to less poison
ous drink distorted into a mental
•hape unbelievable—r .‘fined be
come coarse, witty become com
mon-place, alert become sleepy,
generous become suspicious, gen
tle become combative, boasting,
cruel, defiant, foolishly lustful,
absurdly proud, egotistical, jeal
ous, afternating between a dis
gusting gayety and a maudlin
melancholy, unsteady, vacant,
resentful and dangerous —is
enough to make any thoughtful
man resolve never again to ‘take
a drink.’ But drink is not al
ways at its worst when its appar
ent sway is most complete. The
crimes of alcoholism, violent ex
plosions of alcoholic mania some
times murderous in character,
are put down in the records. But
no one has reported the crimes
against the world indirectly re
sulting from alcohol. It is by the
terrors of its indirect results that
the alcoholic is driven back to
the dangers of its direct results
But alcoholio poisoning has
not run its course even with the
strongest when its first inflamnia
tion has subsided. How often
have I seen men upon whom
great interests depended hesitate
from a sheer, unnatural fear of
themselves and their powers to
venture on the business of the
day before stimulating their de
graded nerves anew. They were
afraid to sign their own names to
papers or checks, to meet their
subordinates, to consult with
their equals. Their purposes, so
bold the night before, shivered
and disappeared in the dawn of
the morning after. Their cour
age was turned into timidity;
their minds were filled with ap.
prehensions of danger; all their
s> mptoms simulated acute nerv
ous prostration. They were ca
pable only of meannesses and
treacheries that fears beget.
They dared not venture. They
were distrustful of the world and
of themselves.
“Gan any one tell me that a
judge who has sat up all night
reveling Is fitted properly to ad
minister justice in the morning
—that he is not either timid,
careless, nervous, apprehensive,
afraid to carry out the functions
of his office, or, if the drink per
sists in him, violently prejudiced,
irritable and oppressive?”

It Reached the Spot.
Mr. E. Humphrey, who owns a
large general store at Omega, 0.,and
Is president of the Adams County
Telephone Co., as well as the Home
Telephone Co., of Pike county, ().,
says of Dr. King’s New Discovery:
“It saved my life once. At least I
think it did. It seemed to reach the
spot—the very seat of my cough—
when everything else failed." Dr.
King’s Now Discovery not only
reaches the cough spot; it heals the
sore spots and the wonk spots In
throat, lungk and chest.. Sold under
guarantee at Cooper’s drug store. 50c
and 41.00. Trial lmttle free.
The true fatal form of croup Is
really diphtheria of the larynx. The
symptoms from the begluing are se
vere. The miiccus membrane ot that
part of the throat Is swollen and in
flamed, and a membrane is formed
and the child will literally be choked
to death if the air passage is not
opened. The throat ls so smalt and
narrow that It, quickly becomes
blocked. Before the days of anti
toxin deaths from true croup were
very frequent, but the ravages of
diphtheria have been wonderfully
lessened by the use of the serum. In
the olden times tracheotomy was
practiced, by which is meant that a
slit was made in the throat and a
tube introduced below the place
whore the throat was stopped up,
through which the air could enter
the lungs. Tracheotomy was seldom
performed early enough to lie of avail.
A procedure which lias saved lives
of many children is called “intubn-
tion of tlie larynx.” A metal tube is
passed into the throat, and provides
an opening sufficiently large to admit
the air into the lungs. It is n great
improvement upon the othermethod,
as it does not necessitate cutting
through and opening the wind-pipe,
thus making a wound which must be
dealt with after the trouble is over.
None of the different kinds of croup
occur much earlier than six months,
and the croupy child outgrows it and
generally leaves it behind soon after
he Is five years old.—“Health and
Sanitation,” in The Ladies’ World

A Californian’s Luck.
“The luckiest day of my life was
when I bought a box of I\ucklen’s
Arnica Salve;” writes Charles F.
Budahn, of Tracy, California. "Two
25c. boxes cured me of an annoying
case of itching piles, which had trou
bled me for years and that yielded to
no other treatment.” Sold undei;

feeling that is commonly felt In spring or

take the Restorative. The bowels get

To cheek early cold, or Grippe with "Proventlc*"
means sure defeat for Pneumonia. To stop a cold
with Preveutics is safer than to let it run and bo
obliged to cure it afterwards. To be sure. Pro
ven ties will cure even a deeply seated cold, but
taken early—at the sneeze stage—they break, or
head off these early colds. That's surely better.
That's why they are called Preventlcs.
Preventlcsare little Candy Cold Cures. No Quin
ine. no physic, nothing sickening. Nice for the
children—and thoroughly safe too. If you feel
chilly, if you meeie. if you ache all over, think of
Preventlcs. Promptness may also save half your
usual sickness. And don't forget your child. If
there Is feverishness, nlghtorday. Herein prob
ably lies Preventlcs’ greatest efficiency. Sold in
6c boxes for the pocket, r-lso In 26c boxes of 48
Provontlcs. Insist on your druggists giving you
