IMPORTANT MEETING TODAY.
No subject is of more importance to the
people of Columbus at this juncture than
a correct census of her population and ma
terial resources. The belief is strong that
the enumeration which has been made
does not do her justice, and a determined
effort is to be made to secure the remedy.
With this object in view, a meeting of the
Board of Trade will be held at the Library
Rooms this morning at 10 o’clock to take
such action in the premises as may be
deemed advisable. Under Section 5 of the
Census law there is prospect that some
thing satisfactory may be accomplished.
In the first place the section required that
all enumerators shall be residents
of the sub-districts for which they
are appointed. This proviso was
not regarded in the appointment of
enumerators for Columbus. Again the
section states that “whenever it shall ap
pear that any portion of the enumeration
and census has been negligently and im
properly taken the superintendent of the
census, with the approval of the Secretary
of the Interior, may cause snch incom
plete and unsatisfactory enumerations and
census to be amended or made anew under
such methods as may in his discretion be
practicable.”
Columbus has good ground under this
section to apply for a new enumeration
and census, and upon this point action
will be taken to-day. Let every member
of the board who feels an interest in this
important matter attend the meeting to
day and take steps to have Columbus
properly placed before the country.
The University graduates have had such
a big swing in holding political offices in
Georgia that Mercer has decided to enter
the lists. Congressman Grimes has been
defeated by a Mercer graduate in the
Fourth; Clements has 'retired before
Mercer graduate in the Seventh, and if
Maj. Barnes is defeated in the Tenth it
will be by a Mercer graduate. Is the
country to understand that Mercer has
gone into partnership with the Alliance?
Mr. Edward W. Bok, the editor of the
Indies’ Home Journal, sailed on Thursday,
July 24th, on the “Augusta Victoria” for
an extended tour through Europe. As
oue of the very youngest and brightest
representatives of American journalism, it
is not unlikely that Mr. Bok will receive
considerable alter.t'on from the famous
literary people lie is to meet. He gee •
freighted with letters of introduction from
prominent Americans to many of the most
distinguished people abroad, and will re
turn home early in October, after visiting
Berlin,
ROBBING THE VETERANS.
While all conservative citizens through
out the Republic are becoming alarmed at
the reckless pension legislation that is
rushing the treasury on to bankruptcy,
and leading Republican journals even call
ing a halt, the country should not forget
the active part in the ruinous business
taken by the pension sharks in Washing
ton. The New York Tribune says that “it
is mainly due to the claim agents that the
granting of additional pensions is pushed
with so mnch vigor each year in Congress,”
and that “so long as the law permits these
persons to charge liberal fees for acting as
attorneys this pressure will doubtless con
tinue. These able patriots, Republicans
all,help hound these bills through Congress
on the plea that the country must support
the old soldier, and then they charge
the old soldier an exhorbltant price
for collecting his pension. It
stated that Corporal Tanner, who was
kicked out of the pension bureau for mal
feasance in office, is making $100,000
year in Washing as a pension agent This
$100,000 is so much blood money drawn
from the old soldiers. And there are hun
dreds of Republican patriots in Washing
ton fattening off the excessive fees extorted
from the veterans, and deducted from their
pension money. This is the secret of
much of the clamor for additional pen
sions.
Down in Georgia the pension business is
conducted on a different basis. The allow
ance granted by the State to disabled vet
erans is but a pittance, but its collection
for the claimant is a work of love. No
Georgia lawyer would think of charging
disabled veteran for drawing his paper:
and helping him to his pension.
THE AMENDED FORCE BILL.
The saeretary of the State Democratic
committee of New York, has just returned
home from a two month’s business trip
through the South, and gives the New
York Star the follwing as the opinion en
tertained by the Southern people of the
force bill.
“Oh, they oppose it bitterly. Republi
cans as well as Democrats are against it,
They see in it only a blow at the prosper
ity of the entire South. This money which
I spoke of as having been invested within
the past year, where does in come from?
Why, from the capitalists of the North and
East, and it is from these that the develop
ment of the South must largely come
Southern people, Republicans as well as
Democrats, believe that if the force bill
is passed it will paralyze the pros
perity of the South. Every bit of
sectional feeling and bitterness that ever
existed will be fanned into flame again,
Chattanooga is a Republican city. The
negroes are a large element ol the popula
tion, and yet there is but one colored man
in office, and he is a court clerk. The ne
gro is given his full rights there. He has
the full right to vote, and his vote is
counted, and in no part of the South
which I visited was it otherwise; but your
Southern Republican has as strong
prejudice against being governed by
the negro as does the Democrats
There is no hostility toward col
ored men. They all want to live
happily and prosper, and save money and
acquire property, and I firmly believe that,
except in a few instances, the colored men
have their full rights in the South. I could
find no instance to the contrary through
the sections through which I traveled.
What the Southern people want more than
anything else is commercial prosperity,
They only ask to be let alone, so that they
can build up the industries of the country
as they are already built up in the North
and East and are building rapidly in the
West. If there are ‘wrongs, they will
right them, and they are righting them.
They are solving the race problem
along with the other hard problems they
have had to solve, and it is but little won
der that they look with alarm at a measure
calculated solely to humiliate them, to
cripple their industries and paralyze the
prosperity which is opening through the
investment of Northern capital all over the
South. The question is a serious one for
Southern people, and they are alarmed at
the outcome, as they have reason to be,
and the protest against the measure comes,
as I said before, from Democrats and Re
publicans alike.”
The reports that are being sent out from
Washington that the Force bill, as revised
by the Senate committee on elections, has
been shorn of its most objectionable fea
tures, should be received with distrust by
the opponents of that iniquitous measure.
To break the force of the opposition to it
and to calm the storm of indignation that
is sweeping the country, members of the
Senate committee may have given out that
the bill has been greatly and materially
modified, but there is grave doubt of the
fact, and as there is little to expect but
partisan action in that committee there
should be no let up in the opposi
tion to the measure. As confirma
tory of this view of the matter
taken by the Enquirer-Sun, the Chicago
Inter-Ocean, one of the rankest of Repub
lican journals, says: “The Senate bill as
reported does not differ in any material
point from the House bill, and it is entirely
safe to say that the House would accent
all the amendments proposed, if correctly
reported, without hesitation. They do not
touch the core of the matter, either weak
ening or strengthening it.”
The people of the South should not suf
fer themselves to be lulled into indiffer
ence by reports that the bill, as revised in
the Senate, is unobjectionable. It is .ob
jectionable and obnoxious. The whole
principle is obnoxious, and should be de
feated if possible. There is no demand,
or necessity, or justification for any sort of
new election law with Federal interference
at the polls. *

non. Leonord Rhone, master of the
Pennsylvania Grange, has issued an ad
dress to the farmers of that State, in
which he urges them to vote for Hon,
Robert E. Pattison, the Democratic nomi
nee for Governor, lie says Mr. Pattison
while Governor, labored incessantly for
the rights and protection of the people,
whilst Mr. Delamater, the Republican
nominee, failed to keep his promise to vote
for the farmers’ tax bill in the State Sen
ate, but on the other hand spoke and
voted against it. In brief, Mr. Rhone says
Mr. Pattison is a candidate on the side of
the people, whilst Mr. Delamater is the
candidate of the corporations and corrupt
powers of the State. With the labor and
farmers’ organizations against him,
would seem Senator Delamater has a hard
road to travel.
The Chicago Tribune, a Republican pa
per, says that the course of Green B.
Raum, the United States Commissioner of
Pensions, “is mortifying to every Illinois
an.” It objects to “the unrebuked appear
ance of his son as a pension agent at
time when the business, owing the passage
of the dependent act, is to be a most prof
itable one.” Alluding to the Tribune’s
wail, the Cincinnati Enquirer observes:
‘The objection seems to us unwisely tak
en. What earthly difference does it make
whether Raum, Tanner or Dudley gets the
usufruct ? They have all been Commis
sioners of Pensions, and the two latter are
now openly running pension claim offices,

Commenting on the assertion that the
Southern press endorse the boycott scheme
the Baltimore Herald says: “Those who
read the Southern papers are inclined to
laugh. The fact is that no paper, so far
as we know, which can be called repre
sentative has ever favored the scheme. It
fell as flat as a pancake on the South, and
still flatter on the North. The boycott
indeed, is already so dead that it never
will be resurrected, except for the pur
poses of the newspaper paragrapher aud
punster.”
Boston Herald makes the following sig
nificant comment: “Vice-President Mor
ton is a very busy man nowadays. He has
just finished a fortnight at Saratoga, and
he is now at his summer residence on the
Hudson. He will remain there but a few
days, however, and will then go to Bar
Harbor. And yet some people seem to
think that the Vice-Presidential office is
mere sinecure.
The renomination of Col. II. A. Ilerliert

JOTTINGS FROM WAYCROSS.
Wayckoss, July 30.—[Special.]—The
past three days has witnessed the greatest
fall of rain that has been seen in this sec
tion the present year. Everything has
been flooded, and still the prospects are
good for a continuance of the dripping
weather.
Day by day the people who are willing
to sacrifice individual happiness to serve the
dear people in the capacity of some local
office come to the front. Last week sev
eral more candidates made their public an
nouncement for various county offices,
but still the candidacy for representative
remains in statu quo. So far as any pub
lic announcement shows forth, Col. J.
M. Denton, of Coffee county, is the
only man that has been spoken of for
Senator from the Fifth district, and he has
not yet formally agreed to offer for the
place, claiming that his personal interests
are of too much importance to engage in
any political contest at this time. It is
Coffee county’s time, in pursuance of the
rotation system. If Col. Denton declines
the place, no doubt some other good man
from Coffee can be found who will willing
ly assume the honors.
Mr. Walter F. Blackshear has been
wrestling with a heavy case of yellow
jaundice the pa9t three weeks, but has
about come out on top and will soon begin
business on his own hook, as soon as able
to be himself again.
The B. and W. railway are making rap
id strides in laying tracks for their new
yards, having a large force of hands at
work, some grading, some putting down
ties, while others come on and lay the
iron.
Wilson «fc Spangler will turn on steam
at their laundry works today. The pros
pects are good for a profitable and lively
business from the start, as nearly the en
tire city has given them assurance' of their
patronage.
TROUBLE IN SAMOA.
Sydney, N. S. W., July 31.—The
steamer Lubeck, which arrived here from
Apia, brings rumors of disorder in Samoan
villages. In the opinion of Europeans,
these disorders point out the necessity of
the three treaty powers, England, Ger
many and the United States, forming a
proper government for Samoa.

IS IT WELL
WITH m KIDNEYS?
Few appreciate the constant duties perfoimed
by the Kidneys, yet fewer appreciate how easily
these important organs are deranged.
The Kidneys are bean-shaped, tilled with veins,
arteries and little tubes; these tubes filter the
water from the blood; the water thus collected is
poured into the ureters, and by them conducted
into the bladder.
Another function of the Kidneys is to eliminate
urea, uric acid and other waste products which
so quickly poison the whole system if left to
course through the blood.
Now, when the Kidneys become diseased and
fail to discharge their important functions, the
skin, liver, bowels and lungs undertake the work
of elimination—a work these organs are unfitted
to perform.
It is readily understood that with this unnatu
ral condition of things the whole body will soon
become diseased, and death, alas! will too often
follow. •
“Keep the Kidneys in good tone and you will
preserve your health” is a motto worth remem
bering.
Stuart’s Gin and Bncliu
Is a true Kidney tonic. It is quickly taken up
by the blood and is filtered ont by the little Kid
ney tubes, and is consequently directly applied
to the affected spots.
If you have any Kidney, Bladder or other Urin
ary trouble,
Stuart*s Gth and Bncliu
is the remedy that*will make you well.
Sold by all druggists.
