Editor Herald:—The action of
Coweta in instructing her delegates
to the Senatorial Convention not to
be controlled by rotation in casting!
their votes for a candi ate for
State Senator, but to seek for the
man beat qualified for the ottce
without reference to the county of
his residence, has brought promi
nent the discussion of the question
of continuing the rotatim system
in this Senatorial District.
The convention did not say, nor
intend to say, the delegates must
not cast their votes for a Dou h !a-
county man provided the best man
for the position is to be found in
Douglas county; it si npiy said sur
vey the entire district and cast
your vote for the best man, let him
come from Meriwether, Coweta,
Campbell or Douglas. Is this ac
tion wise? Is it timely? The pur
pose of this article is to show it i-
bjth wise and timely, and with no
intention to augment or diminish
the claims of any particular candi-
late.
I have never lieen aide to see any force
in the argument favoring rotation exclu
sive of qualifications in the office of State
Senator, certainly there can lie none now,
is the district can safely be counted on as
being Democratic
It does not obtain to any other office,
state or federal. If founded in wisdom
why not apply it to all offices? Why not
*s well rotate members to the Legislature
iround to the different militia districts
•f the counts-, Congressmen to the differ
ent counties'eomposing the Congression
si districts, and and Solicitors
General, to the counties conqiosing the
judicial circuits? If the principle is g-iod
in one case it is good in all. The fqgt
hat it does not prevail in all is an argu
ment why it should not in this particu
lar case.
It puts locality above men and meas
ures. Is the object of a high office like
that of State Senator designed merely for
a c.-rtain county, and a certain man in
that particular county ? orisit not rath
er to be ferved to promote the high and
best interests of all the counties and all
he people of the entire district, nay
•ven the whole state? And to this end
should it not lie filled by the very lies!
man possible in the district, regardlesso;
be place of his residence in the District ?
Iffice is a public trust, designed for tin
lublie good and not intended merely for
ocal or personal honors.
Another argument against tlie rotation
ystem as applied to this and other Sen-
itorinl district in flic State is, that ur
ler il each Senate is necessarily compos-
id of new and inexperienced men in that
particular branch of the Legislature. N<
: hink'ng man 'rill ignore the value of ex
perience in any sphere, much less it:
value to a man to fit and equip him for in
efficient and effective Senator. The Sen-
ale is supposed, designed,' fo be made uj
f men taken from among statesmen ol
acknowledged ability and mature char
acter and experience. Besides having
some powers that do not belong to the
House, it is expected to supply the nec
essary check to hasty and ill-considered
action by tho House. To maintain this
dignity and successfully carry out this
design every Senate ought io hav
more or less experienced men in its body.
Tlie rotation system renders this improb
able, and. if adhered to throughout the
state, impossible, if 1 remember
reetly the. Senale of 1880 and ’31 had
only two men in it that had ever served
before. The Senate of 1882 and ’83, and
1884 and ’85 had 1 think about the same
number. I know the number of experi
enced men in each body was quite small
lam not to be understood as favoring
keeping a man in the Senate or any other
office just for office sake; blit 1 do insist
that if a district has tried a man and h
lias proven himself worthy, efficient and
acceptable, and his constituents desire
to continue him in service longer than one
term, that no rule, rotation .<r otherwise,
should deprive them of this light. That
the rotation system does proscribe thi:
right no one can deny, for at every elec
tion the office must be handed around.
The next and only question is. Is thi
the proper time to abolish it? It is gen
erally conceded that it is not desirabl
perpetuate it. But the query arises, Is
tHis the occasion in justice and equity to
all the counties composing the district, to
put an end to it ? I answer, Yes. It is
always timely and in order to correct an
existing evil. Take the adoption of the
present constitution in 1S77 as a standing
point, and it is proper to do so. For by
that constitution the office is created, the
term fixed, its powers given and all legis
lation is had. Since its adoption the
office lias just beeu around to each coun
ty. In 1878 & ’79, the first election' al
ter the ratification of the Constitution,
the office of Senator from this D : strict
was filled by Mr. Duncan of Douglas; in
1880 & 81, by Mr. Wilson of Campbell;
1882 & 83, by Mr. Martin of Meriwether;
and in 18S4 & ’85, by Mr Kay of Cowe
ta.
But take tlie bate of the formation ot
the District as it is, or the ascendency
ofthe Democratic party into power iii
t lie State, as a time to reckon from, in
1872, and then in justice and equity
the honor of furnishing the Senator has-
been equally shared by the several coun
ties composing the district,and its aboli
tion at the time would work no hard
ship. There have Iteen but six Senators
trom the district since its formation, <ir
since the present party came into power.
Meriwether with a population of ls.uuo
has had it twice in the persons ot Mr.
Peavy amt Mr. Martin; Coweta with a
population of 21,ten has had it twice in
the persons of Mr. Brewster &. .Mr. Kay:
Campbell with a population of in,000 lias
had it once in the person of Mr. Wilson;
and Douglas with a population of 7,000
has had it once in the ]ieraon»r Mr. Dun-
e.iu. So, base it on tlie ratio of popula
tion, and no one cat
He, or unjust to do so. Take the last
mentioned time as » basis to reckon from,
and then the honor has beeu equally
shared ami n< wrong will i.c done any
one on that score to abrogate it now.
But. l>e it remembered that prior to !87.<
t .e rotation system was not strictly ad
hered to in this Senatorial District. In
the conventions which nominated Mr.
I’eavvand Mr. Brewster there were can
didates from each county tiefore the
Conventions str ngly urging their
claims and the results were only reach
ed after spirited sessions. Neither
were nominated because of rotation.
It having been equally shared, to give
to Douglas now on the doctrine of rota
tion will be but to start it around again,
and whoti is it ever to cease?

Editor Herald:—On the Sun
day morning before tlie Sunday in
July, in company with Prof.
G. R. Thurman, I made my way to
New Hope church in Campbell

he last moments of the dear one.
A quarter past two o’clock the an -1 chairman and J. C. Alta way Sec.
gel of death descended and bore | The arranging committee report-
1 way on tlie golden wings of inno-1 ed the iollowing:
cence the soul of Mrs. Sarah Es-
iept to the spirit land, amid" the
sobs ol the husband, her father,
Mr. Gilam Kidd, her brothers and
-isters and the wails of her chil
dren. She had lived a member ol
the Baptist church for years and
liletl in full hope of eternal life.
The day before she died she called
her dear children to her bedside
and imparted tier dying blessings,
and to one for whom she seemed to
feel considerable concern, she said,
“If you arc willing to help your
father pray that you may be a more
dutiful child and affectionate sis
ter, give him your hand.” The
daughter extended her hand to her
father, who was on the opposite side
of Ihe bed, and the mother, taking
hold of their hands, sealed the vow
with her own hands, and we hope
by the grace of God they may keep
it so long as they may live. There
occurred other touching incidents
which moved the stoutest hearts
and wrang a tear from the dryest
eyes, which space will not allow me
to mention.
The burial was arranged for 10
o’clock Sunday morning. The hack
stood before the door, the pall beat
ers were at hand, when it was dis
covered by the nurse that her bab
Frank Amis, aged 10 months and
days,was sinking and a request was
made to wait a few moments, and
at 9:15 o’clock the angel re
turned and relieved little Amis oi
his pains by bearing his precious
soul to the arms of Jesus, which
seemed more than the heart-bro
ken father and children could bear.
When the father knew that his
precious child was sureiy dead, he
said, “1 want it buried in tlie arms
of its mother.”
About an hour passed hurriedly by
when it was laid upon .its mother’s
arm, the lid adjusted and soon ihq
procession started to Elim ceme
tery, where after religious services
by deacon A. B. Brown, they were
burial in the midst ol a .arge circle
of relatives and friends.
Rev. F. J. Amis, who was conduct
ing a meeting at Yellow Dirt, was
sent for and at 4 o’clock preached
their funeral sermon front the text,
“Let me die the death of the right
eous, and let my last end be like
his.”
The deceased leaves a husband
and seven children, together with
tather and other relatives to
tnourn her loss. It io a remarkable
fact that her oldest sister, Mrs. John
Story, who died a few years ago,
carried her infant babe in her arms
to the grave. We join the entire
community in deepest sympathy j
for the bereaved family.

day and was conducted by various

invited to dinner, which was plen
tiful and delightful for the large
crowd present, estimated by many
to be 1,500 people.
The ladies around New Hope
can’t be excelled in fixing up some
thing good to eat.
The citizens around the church
are just as good and t lever- as this
world has. The music was good,
sweet and solemn, selected entirely
from the old Sacred Harp. This
singing meets once a year in mem
ory of Maj. B. F. White, author of
the old Sacred Harp, and no other
book is used on the occasion.
Many of tho time pieces were
sung and I must say they excel in
style, choid and harmony the mu
sic of the present age, for gran-
dure and humble devotion. They
take us back in our feelings to
the days of ancient yore. Oh how
they make us think of our fathers
and mothers and beloved old saints
who once sang them on earth, hut
now sing in the land of eternal
praise.
The next meeting will beheld at
Liberty church, (j miles N. W. of
Newnan, embracing Saturday be

claim to public confidence based cn t’.e

sies, or the senseless mumblings of an

cumulated wisdom and leseurch of nine

that “The blood is the life.” the .Medical
Profession, in sill enlightened countries,
has studied, ••-refully, patient;, .-:id
laboi iouslv the composition of r I *• B;n«>d,
its tendencies to disease, ami the
icims that make and keep ii pure. The
Blood Tonic is no secret compound. Any
physician can see the formula. We «oi
ly c airn for it the host known Blood
medicines carefully and scientifically
combined. For more than a quarter of
a century we have prescribed it with
the most satisfactory results, and if

The sutfering and deaths they pr«>dt.<-e
are incalculable. Thousands «f chil
dren suffer through days and months,
and are dosed with all kinds of “drops”
and soothing syrups to no purpose. The
constant irritation kept up by worms
produces disorder and derangement of
tlie entire digestive apparatus, making
the child fretful and irritable, and some
times causing fits.
Dr. E. S. Lyndon—Dear Sir:—We
obtained through Messrs. Hunt, Rankin
& Lamar, of Atlanta, some of your
Worm Oil, and it is so far superior tc
anything we have ever seen, that in fu
ture we will haj r e no other kind in
store. We have been selling Worm
Medicines for quite a number of years,
and can say (as well as our customers)
that your Worm Oil is more effectual
than" anything we have ever sold.
Should you wish testimonials, we will
send them to you from our best<*itizcns.
This letter is unsolicited bv any one,
and is written solely to commend you
far getting up a good" thing.
Yours truly,
Robertson, Lellik«^ Co.

symptoms of worms. T tried calomel
and other Worm Medicines, hut failed
to expel any. Seeing Mr. Bain’s certifi
cate, I got a vial of your Worm Oil, and
the IDst dose brought forty worms, and
tlie second dose so many were passed
did not count them. S. II. Adams.
Athens, Ga.
A few nights since I gave my son one
dose of Worm Oil, and the next day he
passed sixteen large worms. At the
same time I gave one dose to my little
girl four years old, and she passed
eightv-six worms, from four to fifteen
inches long. W. F. Piiilltpj-
Athens, Ga.
The Worm Oil is perfectly harmless
and will remove every worm, when giv
en according to directions. It costs on-
ly 25 cents. It is worth that much to
feel assured that your child is not
wormy.
ONLY A QUARTER OF A DOLL AIL
For twenty-five cents you can buy
a package of Smith’s Liver Tonic.
Can be taken in powder, or in solu
tion. No trouble to prepare it. Put
a twenty-five cents package in
pint of whisky, and it is ready for
use. When a mild cathartic is de
sired, put one package in a quart
of whisky. The cheapest and the
best liver medicine. Cures head
ache always, aids digestion, and
relieves constipation.
