The Smlth-Howell joint debate at
Rome on Saturday appears, from all
reports that we have seen, to have
been the most orderly meeting the
feud cnndldnteB have yet had.
, The Smlth-Howell Joint debate at
Rome on Saturday appears to have
been less personal and violent than
the former “sputementa" of the .feud
Candidates, but the performances of
the rlvnl Atlanta organs In reporting
the debate were just ns bad as ever.
The Philadelphia Record units that
this be set down to the credit of the
heathen: "As the Pacific Mall steam
er "Korea” sailed from San Francisco
on Wednesday for the Orient she was
boarded by about 600 destitute Chi
nese, rendered homeless by the big
Are, who are going bnclt to China at
the expense of the Chinese govern
ment. As the refugees walked up the
gangplank they each received a small
sum In silver from the Chinese consul
ns pocket money. The quality of mercy
Is a Christian characteristic, but It
not a ChrlBttan monopoly.”
NEW8PAPER EblJJkrSH AGAIN.
Another patrlof has come forward
with an appeal for "purer English In
the newspapers,” and glveo utterance
to a wall of distress which he says Is
Inspired by hts study of this language
as It Is printed In the dally and weekly
press of the country.
It Is a pity that some philanthropist
of the Carnegie type has not provided
an Island In some remote quarter of
the globe and thrown It open to those
tortured individuals to whom modern
newspaper English Is a perpetual
nightmare. Such sufferers are happily
few, but they should not be Ignored.
What a delightful thing It would be to
herd them all together in some quiet
corner of the earth where, with a
printing press, a barrel of Ink and a
few fonts of type, they might pubs the
remainder of their days in the blissful
enjoyment of a literary Utopia which
they have found Impossible In the
newspapor-cursed English , speaking
world In which they now live and al
most move.
Happily for the generality of man
kind, newspaper English suits the av
erage reader very well. The journalist
who follows the pace of the twentieth
century writes In the course of a year,
either of editorial or other matter,
considerably more than the painstak
ing author of " standard ” literature
produces In a lifetime of devoted
labor. The newspaper writer marches
at the front of the procession of pass
ing'events. be has threshed over a
new Issue and pasted It In memory’s
scrap-book long before the painstaking
“writer for posterity" has dipped his
pen In Ink to begin his labors. The
latter day Journalist writes as he runs.
Instead of concentrating hts thoughts
upon a single subject, he handles for
ty In a day, and by the next day has
forgotten all about the most Important
of the lot In his pursuit of forty more.
He 1b a worker of the present and for
the present, though the result of his
labor leaves Its Indelible Imprint on
the futurh. He cares less for style
than for details and more for direct
ness than for fine word painting. He
servos a public which wants facts and
truth without unnecessary elaboration
at|d without wastej of time In the serv
ing.
Nevertheless, newspaper English Is
not the uncouth monster pictured by
some of our perturbed purists. Its
average of excellence Is high, and con
sidering the trying conditions under
which it Is produced, nothing else that
Is written In fills day and generation
Is quite so good.

In a statement given out from
Mr. Bryan’s olllco In Lincoln. Neb.,
It Is Bald that many of the Issues
of 1896 will stand good, but that
there will be no need of engender
ing animosities by discussing til
the campaign to come the financial
Issues of that year. If that state
ment had been Issued a couple of
years ago Judge Parker might
have been President of tho United
States now.—Philadelphia Record.
Well, Mr. Bryan and Senator Ben
Tillman nnd other good Democrats
who Insisted on nn unequivocal dec
laration on “financial issues" In 1896
and 1900, agreed to and reported to
the St Louis convention two years ago
a platform In which these Issues were
virtually eliminated in the Interest of
Democratic harmony, but Judge Par
ker wouldn’t have it so, and sent a
telegram from his home at Esopus
which not only amounted to a declara
tion which appeared to have been in
spired by consideration for the inter
ests of Wall street, but looked like au
unnecessary and uncalled for slap in
the face for Bryan and the 6,500,000 of
loyal Democrats who had stood by
him In the two previous presidential
campaigns. If there were any “ani
mosities” stirred up over past “finan
cial Issues” In 1904 Judge Parker was
alone responsible for It
■v
One J. O. Groves, one of the most
prominent and successful negro farm
ers tn Kansas, has issued an appeal to
his race which they would do weh to
heed. In effect he advises them to
take their eyes and their minds off the
cities, the Pullman cars, soclni equali
ty and other vain imaginings, and go
back to the soil to become successful
and independent farmers. He shows
thorn that their best Interests lie in
making themselves home owners in
the rich farming regions of Kansas in
stead of Hocking to the towns, “dying
like sheep with the rot," instead of
owning and living in plenty and inde
pendence on their own farms. And
the Montgomery Advertiser well says
that his advice is of the best, and will
apply in tho South with even more
force than In Kansas. The congestion
of negro population In the cities Is
one of the greatest evils of tho times,
and more advisers like Groves would
be a good thing.

Albany is the “Convention City,, of
South Georgia, and deserves to be.
My. what a big advertisement this is
for that city. Others should seek to
Imitate her.
From the Nashville Herald.
Editor McIntosh Intimates that the
water plugs in the vicinity of the scene
of the joint debate will be kept
"cleared for action” when Clark How
ell and Hoke visit Albany.
From the Griffin News.
The Macon News Is calling for a
Smlth-Howell joint debate in Macon.
“Take ours," says the Albany Herald,
which is sick of joint debates, dedar-
ing that they are no good to either of
the parties involved and only serve to
make neighbors and friends unneces
sarily hot at each other.

BECOMING
A MOTHER
Is an ordeal vMiich all
women approach with
indescribable fear, for
nothing compares with
the pain and horror of
child-birth. The thought
of the suffering and danger in store for her, robs the expectant mother
of all pleasant anticipations of the coming event, and casts over her a
shadow of gloom which cannot be Bhaken off. 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. Not only does Mother’s Friend
carry women safely through the perils of child-birth, but its use
gently prepares the system for the coming event, prevents “morning
sickness,” and other dis
comforts of this period.

$1.00 per bottle. Book
