Just as soon as the necessary
arrangements can be made the
Advertiser will be an eight-page
paper.
Secretary Herbert thinks we
pa> half a million too much for
each war ship. What’s half a
million between friends? Half a
dollar would be too much for the
Texas.
Comptroller Tickles says in his
report that the Southern banks are
in a good condition, and that there
have been fewer failures south
than in any other section of the
country.
The late A. T. Stewart said: “If
you have two bushels of potatoes
to sell, spend the price of one
bushel in advertising the other.”
But there are dull men in business
who allow their two bushels of
potatoes to rot while a rival in
business advertises and sells a car
load.
The Spartanburg, S. C., Herald
jumps into things this way: “ Sup¬
pose Bryan had been elected and
twenty-eight banks, involving §21
000,000 should have failed in fifteen
days! What a howl would have
gone up. Yet, with the great and
good goldbug Grover Cleveland at
the bat and McKinley on deck,
this is just what happened.”
The editor of an exchange ad¬
vertised in an editorial for infor¬
mation on the subject of how to
run a newspaper. To his aston¬
ishment he received 113 answers
saying, “Run it as you d--d
. please.” That is the way he says
he is running it bat is still ready
to take turnips and cord wood for

Constitution is one of the bright¬
est, braniest and best newspapers
in this or any other country, and
the enterprise and push displayed
by its owners deservedly receives
the full patronage and endorse¬
ment of all the people. Long
may she waive.
Eugene V. Debs, the great labor
leader, lias left the peoples’ party
and become an out-and-out social¬
ist. In a recent letter he says that
he supported Bryan and ’free coin¬
age, not because he regarded the
free coinage of silver as a panacea
for national ills, but because it fur
nished a rallying cry and common
ground against the trusts, syndi¬
cates and corporations.
l im legislative committee that
is to determine whether there is
ground for impeaching Judges
Reese and Sweat, are now getting
down to work. Some verv rich
and racy testimony is Being drawn
out, but it is to be hyped that this
wi.: not be the me*Sns of drawing
the investigation,^ out until next

dollars and tlw-n ending in a farce.

TJAE trusts tumble.
Ar a result of the Calvin anti
-.Jjrtist bill, passed by the last legis¬
lature of this state, the America^
Tobacco Company and ttie Loril
lard Snuff Company have notified
their jobbers throughout Georgia
that the iron-cl?d contracts they
have been doing business under
are now off. This throws the
market wide open for competition
and will be the means of cheapen¬
ing tobacco products of all kinds,
The manufacturers of Railroad
snuff are inclined to be obstinate,
however, and claim that the new
law can have no effect in the
contracts now in force, but say
they will make no further contracts
under old rules.
Be this as it may, we are glad to
-
note that , the , companies forming ,
these trusts inevitable. are bowing so grace

THE GEORGIA OUTLOOK.
The outlook for Georgia, finan
daily, is very promising and is
enough to put a quietus on the
calamity howlers and to encourage
all who are doubtful as to our
future prosperity. The facts in
the case indicate that Georgia is in
as good a financial condition as any
state ! in the L*nion, and our banking
institutions are safe and sound, as
a rule, the exception being few and
far between. The banks of Rome,
Atlanta, Macon, Savannah, Colum¬
bus, Augusta and other smaller
cities and towns are in good con¬
dition with growing deposit ac
counts and substantial surpluses,
with a healthy and promising bus¬
iness outlook for the coming year,
says the Rome Tribune. There is
no cause for apprehension in finan¬
cial circles, in spite of the ominous
croakings of a few agitators who
have predicted disaster until they
frightened themselves and alarmed
a few others of the weaker sort.
The commercial condition of Geor¬
gia, during the past year, has been
fairly good, in spite of the adverse
circumstances and surroundings
and the unsettled condition of
affairs incident to the heated polit¬
ical campaign Of course the
financial interests were strength¬
ened by the steadiness in business
circles and we have been enabled
to enter into the new year with
flying colors.
The ordinary informs us that
Monroe county will receive between
§5,000 and §6,000 in the three pen¬
sion payments shortly to be made
to confederate veterans. This will
add' considerably to the circulat¬
ing medium of this county.
WASHINGTON LETTER.
Washington has been very dull,
politically, since congress took a
recess on December 28th, until
January 5th. Business was resum¬
ed Tuesday and will have to be
pushed forward vigorously in order
that all the necessary appropria¬
tion bills should be passed before
the 4th of March.
The resolution of Senator Cam¬
eron to recognize the independence
of Cuba, again attracts the atten¬
tion of the senate, but has less
prospect of passing that body now
than it had previous to the recess.
A very important bill that is to
come up in the house is that to
fund the debt of the Pacific rail¬
road s-to the ____
r,..
Pacific railroads provides for the
issue of bonds by the Pacific rail¬
road companies to the amount of
the whole balance now due by them
to the United States, about §112,
ooo,oco, the bonds to bear interest
at the rate of 2 per cent per
annum.
The opposition to the bill is
gaining strength daily. The Cali
fornia delegatinn is almost solidly
against it. It can be said also that
unless congress takes action, the
president will have to move in the
matter of the foreclosure of the
government’s mortgage on the
Pacific roads.which amounts to
§33 >°°o,oo 3. Thegovernment con¬
tends that the railroads are already
in default, and have been for years.
This the railroads deny, claiming
that the charge for transporting
government property has offset the
claim against them. The latest
statements show, however, that the
Union Pacific owes the govern¬
ment §53,000,000 and the Central
Pacific §57,000,000, or in all about
§112,000,000.
The last New Year’s reception
at the White House, given by the
President, was a dull affair com¬
pared with those that have taken
place in the past years of his occu¬
pancy of the executive chair. 1 he
attendance was not so large as
usual, and it was remarked that
the silver democrats of the senate
and house were conspicuous by
their absence. The New Year
receptions have long been declin¬
ing in popularity. It was the
proper thing in the time of Andrew
Jackson to provide a substantial
lunch in the east room of the White
House on New Year's day, but,
then, the president and his house
hold did not expect so many visi
tors as come now. On one occa
sion in the memory of persons still
living in Washington, the crowd

Representative . John Alien, of .
Mississippiy^ually comes to con-
gress each session with an assort
raent of new stories, and is telling
a pretty good one concerning the
recent campaign. He said that on
a certain occasion a silver man,
who was going through the country
making speeches, stopped by the
road side in Missippi, ir.d got into
conversation with a man who was
hauling water to a neighborhood
that had been dried up by the pre¬
vailing drouth. The silver orator
thought to make a good Bryan
man out of the water carrier, so
he said to him ; “What is that
sheep worth that is passing over
yonder in the field ?" “I suppose
he is worth about §2,” replied the
man. “ Well,” continued the
silver spellbinder, “if Bryan
is elected that sheep will be worth
$4. ’ “Yes,” said the who
man was
hauling water “I have no doubt of
it, and if I had this barrel of water
in h- I suppose I could get
about Si.ooo for it.”
Senator Allen, of Nebraska, will
try to get up in the senate at the
first opportunity, the resolution he
offered to provide for an investiga¬
tion of the vote at the last election.
There is no expectation of such an
investigation being made, but it
will give a chance to discuss the
issues ol the election again. Mr.
Allen, Mr. Teller and other prom
inent silver-men will join in the
debate. Senator J ones, of Arkan¬
sas, chairman the democratic
national committee, finds encour¬
agement for the democrats in the
fact that they polled for Bryan a
million more votes than were cast
for Cleveland. He claims that
two-thirds of the intelligent voters
of the country supported the Dem¬
ocratic candidates, and is hopeful
of success in 1900.
According to Senator Teller, the
silver senators will not make any
opposition to the passage of a res¬
olution appropriating §100,000 to
pay the expenses of commissioners
from the United States to an inter¬
national monetary conference if
one shall be called. Mr. Teller is
of the opinion that a conference
would result in definite action, even
if called by the European powers
and the United States. He thinks
Great Britain will continue to be a
Stumbling block.
Ordinary _ ,. „ Mobley _ , , requests us to
say that all invalid and indigent
pensioners, also all widows of con
federate soldiers who airf u
—«—>—, 1 ^ pensions'will please come
forward without delay and sign up
their applications. The ordinary
is very anxious to get this matter
completed as soon as possible as
his time is limited for this business.
FOR PENSIONS AND TEACHERS
State Treasurer Will Soon Pay Out
Considerable Money,
State Treasnrer W. J. Speer is prepar¬
ing for the heaviest disbursements of the
year. In about 20 days he will pay the
school fund for the fourth quarter of
1890, amounting to about $.800,000. On
January 11, the payment of indigent sol¬
diers’ pensions will begin. Tlie legisla¬
ture appropriated §150,000 for this pur¬
pose, and most of it will go this month.
The payment of widow’s pensions
amounting to $240,000, will begin about
February 1st, and most of the amount
will be disbursed before the end of that
mouth.
The payments of maimed soldiers pen¬
sions will begin March 1, and will be
completed as far as possible before tlie
first of April. The pensions of all classes
aggregate $580,000. In the first quarter
will also come the payment of 870,000 to
the lunatic asylum, about $20,090 to the
civil establishment, and large amounts to
t he various state institutions. Treasurer
Speer says the disbursements of the first
quarter will probably exceed a million
dollars,
Tlie payment of tlie school fund will
gladden the hearts of 8,COO teachers, and
the $5SO,000 pension money will reach
nearly 20,000 persons. Tlie number last
year was 9,381.
While all these disbursements are in
progress the slat-- treasury will receive
considerable money from taxes and other
sources of revenue. The first of January
brings the annual reports of insurance
companies, with the payment of fees and
taxes amounting to about $00,000.
The tax paid by the 182 companies
doing business in Georgia was as follows
in 1S96 and will be about tlie same this
year:
Fire insurance companies......$21,141.25
Old Line Life companies....... 23,822.57
Assessment companies......... 4,108.48
Accident and Indemnity Go's.. 1,822.11

Question. — I had a sow that had pigs
in the early fall. S ion afterwards she
got down in tiie loins and I put her up
.Jo fatteu. She then commenced and
contiuued breathing hard, but seemed
to thrive and fatten. Upon killing her
I found the meat full of small lumps
about the size of No. 2 squirrel shot, aud
each little lump had a s ick around it
full of clear water. The lumps were all
through the heart also. Want would
you call the disease aud could it have
been cured?
Answer —Your hog was troubled
with what is called measles. “This dis¬
ease in hogs results from small internal
parasites which are embryo forms of the
common tape-worm, being caused by
eating the egg of the common tape¬
worm of m.aii. Measley pork is unlit
for human food, and if eaten without
being most thoroughly cooked, will be
sure to cause tape-worms, as the eating
of trichina infected pork will cause
trichina. It L; a well known fact that
dogs are subject to tape worms, probably
from eating raw flesh, lionea they void
the eggs of this parasite, aud if swine
eat their excrement thov will be liable
to become infected. Allow lig hogs to
eat the excrement of other animals is a
fruitful cause of this disease. Haw flesh,
such as the refu 0 from slaughter houses
should never |, be fed to hogs, as it may
contaia t emb , T0 tapa . worms> and
will bo lial-e to produce measles in the
fiogs that p it. This disease seldom
Ht-ks-gesor-.
aliv rofgnr 1 U a.*> incurable. It is more
"
easily pn-v ntod than cured. If, how¬
ever, tuk'-a in the early stages, daily
small do c.3 of Sulpher, saltpetre, or ep
som salts be given for two or three
weeks, with a liberal supply of whole¬
some, nutritious and easily digested
food, the eggs might be passed from the
stomach and bowels, but this is by no
nieaii3 certain.” The foregoing is taken
from Flint's American Farm -i\ a most
excellent authority, Too symptoms of
this disease make it easily distinguish¬
able; the animal coughs, is feverish, ou
examining the skin watery pimples c.r
pustules o? a re birth color w 1- be found.
There is a weakness of the hind legs,
and sometimes a disiharge from tiio
eyes and nose. Any curative treatment
will be useless, except in the vary ear L*
est stage of the disease.—State Agricul¬
tural Department.

Urealii.ifi: » Colt.
Question. —In breaking a colt to har¬
ness wouid yon advise me to use a blind
bridle or not?
Answer.— Most horsemen are strongly
opposed to the use of “blinders,” as
they are callt'd, claiming that in a great
many cases they cause disease of the
eyes, and not infrequently blindness.
Besides this, a horse is more easily
frightened when he has on a blind bri¬
dle, because of tho fact that he gets a
distorted view of objects by the road¬
side, when without the “blinders” he
would see clearly every passing object,
aud find no cause for fright. Loud,
startling noises are also apt to frighten
the animal whose eyes are covered with
blinds. Hearing the noise, but not be¬
ing able to see what makes it, ho nat¬
urally imagines something terrible is
after him, aud just as naturally runs £=
get away from it. No one can give any
good reason for using blind bridles, and
my advice is, never put one on your
colt, and you are more apt to make a
gentle animal of him than by use of the
“blinders.”—State Agricultural Depart¬
ment.
