Mr. Jns. Swann hns given $20,-
000 to the State Technological
School in Atlanta. Tills is one
of Georgia’s most useful and de
serving educational institutions,
and Mr. Swann, could not have
placed ids benefaction more
wisely.
The groat question, Docs the
Constitution follow the ilag ? is
now being argued before the
United States Supreme Court. It
will determine the status of Porto
Rico and the Philippines, and is
one of the most important ques
tions ever brought before the
court.
Senator Clay’s great speech in
the Senate last week against the
ship subsidy bill marks him as
one of the leaders of that body,
and Georgia is proud of him. The
cartoonists of the opposition press
have recognized his leadership
by paying him their “delicate
compliments.” Stove Olay is a
“briclt. ”
At Rockport, Ind., a white man
was waylaid and murdered Sat
urday night by a couple of ne
groes, who were promptly lynched
by art infuriated mob,mul another
“suspect” sliared the same fate
on the following night. These
same negroes were suspected' of
being implicated in a number of
robberies, and the Indiana mob
gave notice that they would run
down and lynch any burglars in
future. It seems to us that In
diana is likely to carry the lynch
ing business to extremes!
Governor Candler last week
appointed Hon. G. Gunby Jor
dan, of Columbus, to succeed
Hon. T. C. Crenshaw as State
Railroad Commissioner on the
expiration of tho latter’s term of
office Oct. 16th, 1901, making the
appointment now in order that it
might be confirmed by the Sen
ate. Mr. Crenshaw took Mr. Jor
dan’s place on the Commission
six years ago under appointment
of Governor Atkinson, and lias
made an excellent official. Mr
Jordan is one of the best Com
missioners the state lias ever had,
and his re-appointment gives
general satisfaction.
President McKinley lias ap
pointed Hon. Judson 0. Clements
to succeed himself on the Inter
state Commerce Commission, in
which lie lias rendered such ex
cellent service for the past six
years. The appointment is an
excellent one, and President Mc
Kinley receives for it the grate
ful appreciation of the South—
and of Georgia especially. Mr.
Clements served this district in
Congress with distinction for a
number of years, and the “bloody
Seventh” never had a more able
or worthy Representative. His
retention on the Interstate Com
merce Commission is very grati
fying to his host of personal
friends throughout tiiis section.

SEW £ HU ROII ORGANIZED.'
The new Canal Street Methodist
church was formally organized last
Thursday evening, Rev. T. R. Mc
Carty presiding at the meeting.
Rev. G. \V. Groce, a consecrated
local preacher, has been placed in
charge or the church lor the year,
and services will be held every Sun
day at 11 a. m. and 7 p. in., with
prayer meeting every Thursday eve
ning.
Mr. Allen Garrard is superintend
ent ol the Sunday School, which is
held every Sunday at 2:30 p. m.
Mr. A. Stedman was elected secre
tary, and Messrs. Geo. Knight, J. P.
Sanders and W. J. Hughes.as stew
ards.
The new church starts out with a
large and earnest membership, in a
handsome new building, and with
bright prospeots for usefulness, j
FOIl THE SOUTH TO HE MEMBER.
This year's cottun crop of the south,
worth on the farms about $-150,000,000,
will be worth live ur six limes as
much by the time it readies all its con
sumers after manipulation by 105,-
000,000 spindles. Of those spindles
the south operates but 0,000,000, Rais
ing three-fourths of the supply of
raw cotton In the world, the south
manufactures about one-sixth of its
crop. There is n wonderful future for
cotton nmuufuntiiring in the south.
Southern Irun interests have been
givenlrenewed vigor during the past
month, and work in the coal mines is
being pushed to the utmost, their oui-
put finding a ready market at home
and nbrpad.
Southern railroads are orowded
with trafllc, and through them world
wide financial influences are becoming
more closely identified with Southern
development,
Every cotton mill built In the south,
every furnace blown in, every mine
opened, means employment for a
greater number of persons, a larger
market for agricultural products and
a greater share In the commerce of
the couhtry, which Is destined to ex
pand mightily with the construction
of an Isthmian canal and the enlarge
ment of American shipping facilities.

Keep tho bowels active if you would

Many persons have had the expe-
rieuce of Mr. Peter Sherman, of North
Stratford, N. H., who says: -‘For
years I suffered torture from chronic
indigestion,but Ivodol Dyspepsia Cure
made a well man of me.” It digests
what you eat and is a certain cure for
dyspepsia and every form of stomach
trouble. It gives relief at once even in
the worst cases, and can’t help but do
you good. E. Bradford.
“A Burnt Child
Dreads the Ffre ”
You have been ill. Oh,
the weary, dreary days of
illness and that depressing
tired feeling. Nauseous med
icines taken copiously. You dread to
Hunk of it. Be noise after this. Half
teaspoonful doses of Hood's Sarsaparilla
•colli keep your blood pure, bright clean
and wholesome, and half the battle with
disease is won. It puts the dreaded
enemy to rout as nothing else can.
After the Grip—"After the grip I
was weak, suffered from catarrh and
was run down. In a week after I began
taking Hood’s Sarsaparilla I felt stronger.
It relieved the catarrh and gave me an
appetite.” John Roberts, Ionia, Mich.

W. L. Douglass, the shoe manufac
turer, employs 1,200 hands in the fao-
tory at Brockton, Mass., and pays out
$17,433 in wages each week. The an
nual business amounts to $3,000,000, all
of which Mr. Douglass says is due to
newspaper advcrtising.-Fourth Estate,
Look at your tongue.
Is it coated ?
Then you have a bad
taste in your mouth every
morning. Your appetite
is poor, and food dis
tresses you. You have
frequent headaches and
are often dizzy. Your
stomach is weak and
your bowels are always
constipated.
There’s an old and re
liable cure:
Don’t take a cathartic
dose and then stop. Bet
ter take a laxative dose
each night, just enough to
cause one good free move
ment the day following.
You feel better the
very next day. Your
appetite returns, your
dyspepsia is cured, your
headaches pass away,
your tongue clears up,
your liver acts well, and
your bowels no longer
give you trouble. ,
