SB It la a, dul^ day In the senate when Mr. Tillman can’t drop a tack whore It Will make somebody jump. ■i I If ■H i Does anybody remember a chap by the nnme of Longworth whose name, for some roaSon or other, was very much In the newspapers a little whllo Itr •_ | Tho man who goes to the basoball , games nfcd enjoys them has an Inex pressible pity for the man who does not go and who knows nothing of the ‘.v/ standing of tile clubs In tho various ' .leagues. ; ■ 4' The rate,bill, nor any other bill, will - prohibit the use by congressmen of : ffree railroad passes, until tho people the country themselves decide to ^Mfflettlo the matter, and give their pub- f jic sorvnnti orders which the latter j, . 'dare not disregard. The President has added no new >, | laurel wreaths to his Interesting col- «% ; -1jboUon through his connection with m'M the recent railroad rate legislation. It win take another forolgn war or a isoal strike to afford him an opportun- • 1 ' jty fot: ellmhlng hack Into tho good '•graces of the public. *«! ^ ,* s stated that President John Jfjti' .Mitchell, of the United Mine Workers, Ijfci? Vlll soon cease to ho a jahor loader. *nd devote.his attention to the law. o is evidently tired of the super*' strenuous life which his present posi tion has made it necessary for him to lead for the last, several years. Atlanta had a real alee time with .Vice-President Fairbanks, Saturday, add contrary to expectation the tern- : peraturo round about tho capital didn’t • take a tumble. The vice-president had lieen over in Birmingham rubbing ol- v bows with a body of Southern Meth- ' odists quite genial enough to melt an Uieberg, .and had not had time to re* BH stime his normal Arctic status when he Reached the Georgia capital. & ,;;lf Senator Bailey is not timber of fee presidential dimensions, then we are '' iio judge of men, and if the South , vpould not like to vote, in 190S, tickets bearing his name, then we don’t know Southern sentiment. How much bet- . ter it would be for the South to vote, even though she voted alone, for a big man like Bailey, who stands for Dem- . ybcracy, than to waste her voteB and \ |ter enthusiasm on some Northern Democrat who would probably not be elec?ted, and who, even should the par ty be victorious, might prove bitterly disappointing. ' , - BOTH COMMITTEE!) MEET. Inquiries received by THs Herald during the past few days Indicate un certainty or a misunderstanding In tho mlnda of some of the members of the Democratic Executive Committee of the Second Congressional District with reference to the meeting or meetings of the committee tn this city on next Thursday, the 24th Inst. An Intelligent reading of the resolu tions passed by the district committee when It met to order the primary which was held,on the 10th Inst., will make It perfectly plain that the pres ent or old committee will meet at Al bany next Thursday to consolidate the i returns from the primary and to de clare the result, and that the new committee that was elected In the pri mary on the 16th Inst, will also meet at 1 o’clock p. m. of the same day, at Albany, to qualify and effect Its organ ization. Both the retiring committee and tho committee elected for the next two years will, therefore, meet in Al bany on next Thursday. The term of the present committee does not expire until the returns from tho primary held on the 10th inst. have been con solidated and the reault declared. As soon ns this business has been dis posed of, however, the term of the present committee expires and the term of the new committee begins. TO TOP THEM ALL. The American-navy is to have that big battleship—the biggest fighting machine afloat. In spite of the earnest protests of loading Republican members against the extravagance of naval expenditure, the house has resolved to delight the heart of Jingoism with the present of the $10,000,000 •battleship. It Is said that when launched It will be the greatest monBter of destruction that floats upon the waters. Is not that a sufficient ground of na tional pride and exultation? Estimat ing the number of taxpayers at 20,- OOO.OOO^by the time the great big toy Is finished this will he only 50 cents a head. Parental fondness is daily expend ing much larger sums In toys to amuse ehtldren-of snlnllor growth. President Ronsovelt, too, Is crying for tills play thing, and In view of tho action of the house tho senato will hardly bo so eruol ns to refuse him this gratifica tion nftor so many rebuffs. , Persons sensitive to low tempera- t\iros' who lmvo been alarmed at the predictions of certain geologists that In the course of a few thousand years tho earth would become too cold to admit of nnlmnl life will ho relieved by the asRurnnces of Professor Chamber- lain. of the University of Chtcngo, that tiro globe was not once red hot, has not cooled down to Its present highly variable hut generally tolerable tern- lierature, and will not In the course of time reach the condition of perpetual winter. The professor says the world Is not steadily contracting and cooling, hut has actually annexed unconsidered trifles floating about In apace, with the effect, of adding something to Us size end heat; and he ventures the predic tion that It will he a pleasant place of residence for millions of years. Real Democrats—and that’s the sort the State Democratic Committee Is supposed to represent —can't quite bring themselves to the point of ac cepting tho contention of the Atlanta Journal and Us crowd of "Democrats Pro Tom.,” ns the Macon Telegraph has aptly dubbed them, that the term “Democrat." as applied by the State Committee tn Us rules and regulations for the Democratic primary, can he aa insult to any man desiring or otter ing to participate In a Democratic party primary. Cutting oats Is now the order of the day on the average farm in South west Georgia. Speaking of oats, we are reminded that at about this time last year, or perhaps a little earlier in the month of May, there came a storm which played havoc with the oats in this region. Without any such dis aster this season, the'yield of the oat crop promises to he good. The population of Albany cannot Increase to any considerable extent until more houses are built. The de mand for houses, both for business purposes and dwelling places, Is un precedented. The city Is losing sub- Btantlll accessions to Its population and business Interests daily, on ac count of having no houses available to those wanting to locate here. If former Senator Chandler' toere still entrenched In the congressional position which ho held for so many years, he would probably not be so particular about selecting respectful language in referring to the President It Is one of the prerogatives of an act ive senator to pay his respects to the chief executive with the gloves off. la Term “Democrat” an Insult? Prom the Macon Telegraph. The Atlanta Journal, which la no longer a Democratic newspaper, tells the Populists that it Is an “Insult” to them to ask them to take the Demo cratic pledge! There Is party disloyalty for you! An “Insult" to ask a man to become a Democrat! What do you think of that, you old battle-scarred Democrats? What do you think of that, you old fellows who have kept the faith from the dark days of reconstruction until this good hour? What do you think of that, you young Democrats who have heard your fathers tell of the struggles they had to get over negro soldier bayonets to the polls to vote a Democratic ticket? An "Insult" to Invite a man to take the Democratic pledge, Indeed! But that Is the program that the Telfair Enterprise is helping along. We freely grant it the right to go with that company If It wants to, but as for the Telegraph, if It cannot get a pure ly Southern Democracy it will take the best Democracy It can get, and fight loyally for It.

BEC&msm A MOTHER Is an ordeal which all women approach with indescribable fear, for nothing compares with thd pain and horror of child-birth.

Thousands of women have found that the use of Mother’s Friend during pregnancy robs confinement of all pain and danger, and insures safety to life of mother and child. This scientific liniment is a god-send to all women at the time of their most critical trial.
