WILL HE MAKfTti iE RACE ? ’
| The Atlanta correspondent of the
Henry County Times writes thusly:
nle tell you,’ said a well posted
politician the other dav, “there is go
iug to ^ a big surp'rise given the
this district. There IS a
plain, hard sensed, thrifty farmer liv
i„g down in Rockdale county, who
John ^ lf anybody D. Stewart. does) is I going allude to succeed
to Hon
W . L- Peek.” \Ve asked him from
where could come his following?”—
“His following! Why it would come
from all over the district. He is an
Allianceman, and oue of the right
sort. He practices what he preaches,
and he preaches sound doctrine. Ills
home county will put him out; New¬
ton, Walton, Henry and Douglas will
go for him certain, and he will have
a big support in the other rural COUD
ties. Yes, sir, Bill Peek is the com
ing man.”
CALL AND SEE HIM.
Mr. VV. E. Smith is now with the
popular establishment of J J. Dear
ing. where he would he pleased to see
all of his friends and acquaintances.
He says that prices will be so lo.w and
terms so easy that everybody can live
and dress well, at small cost, if they
will only trade at Dr. Dearing’s store
this year. The rooms are packed with
new goods and the shelves are full, so
he desires to distribute them through¬
out the land so that old and young,
rich and poor, can he happy and sat¬
isfied. New goods arriving daily and
Mr Smith am) other accommodating
salesmen in the store are always in a
pleasant humor and are ever ready to
wait on customers. A kind and cottr
teous welcome is always in waiting
for the trading public at Doctor Dear
ing’s store. Call and make yourself
at home there when you come to town,
and examine goods and prices.
t ( HERE’S A SENSATION.”
Voder this head the Atlanta cor*
r<*fntiident uf the Augusta News says:
“A big MUisation was created in Alli¬
ance circles the other day when the
^.gnatiou of Felix Corbat, as presi
deDt of the ^change was accepted,
1 "’ 1 U- L Pwk vvas elected 1,1 llls
place. He has been opposed, howev
r. by L F. Livtngton, president of
the , btate Alliance, . who , wants to be
governor, ami , wants it . , had. , r Corput ,
has , not been . as friendly „. ,, , to Livingston T • • .
as the latter would like, and has been
at work against him. The point of
attack, so far as can be learned, was
the salary Corput received. This has
been $3,00l). Some of the directors
have intimated that the sum was too
much, Corput said he’d none of it,
and stepped down and out. There
was also talk of mismanagement, but
the directors denied that there was
an y truth in that. There was a stor
my meeting. Livingston wanted to
be president of both the alliance and
the alliance exchange, but in this was
thwarted by the election of Peek, who
takes the place at $1,000. The fight
is likely to have a strong bearing on
the guburnatorial election. Corput,
who is very strong, has been under¬
stood to favor VV. J- Northen, The
result cannot be predicted, but the
alliance is sure to cut a big figure in
the campaign.” Our “Lon” has the
inside track in the race for governor,
and the public will hear of “sensa¬
tion” after sensation before the nomi
nation, but Livingston has the confi
deace of the people, which cannot be
shaken by sensational publications or
bv unjust insinuations that he will be
satisfied with nothing less than the
earth. The music has opened, let
the ball begin, and in the meantime
remember that so far as L.v.ngsto *
concerned “he’s all right.
In speaking of this “sensation the
Mon. Felix Corput, under his own
signature, says: U My attention is
called to a recent correspondence to
Au-iibi.i Evening N.«, «U*
ta„ , lernlency t, mi,lend «»d I
disaffect members of the alliance. I j
desire to state that, outside of the
meeting of the board of directors, my
resignation and the election of Mr.
Peek, there is no foundation for any
portion of the sensational correspon
ilence. No “speculation” was discov
ereil to be on toot, no “criminating
evidence” was found against any °
eers of the exchange, Mr. Living
and myself tire <in the best of
at "ti friendly fitian
terms and perfectly significance no attaches
rial or political and theonlyattac -
to my resignation, the board of di¬
made on my salary by withdraw
rectors was to request me to
tuy resignation.'

Ses : “i can recommend Electric Bitters as
the very best remedy. Every buttle sold has
given reiie! in every case. One man took six
bottles, and was cured of Rheumatism of
years’ standing.” Abraham liare, druggi.-t,
Bellville, Ohio, affirms : “The best selling
medicine i have ever handled in my 20 yea 1 s’
experience, is Electric litters.” Thousands
of others have added their testimony, so that
the verdict is unanimous that Electric Bitters
do cure all diseases of the Liver, Kidneys or
blood. Only a half dollar a bottle at Brooks
