FOR GOVERNOR:
AU HN D. CANDLER, of Hall.
FOR CONGRESS, ‘Ith District.,
HOWARD THOMPSON, of Hall.
Spain must now hush up or put
up a fight. We believe she will
hush up and also let Uncle Sam
name the conditions.
It took democratic action in con¬
gress to give the presidential back¬
bone the proper stiffning.
“1 call the Toccoa Record
quite a dandy paper, with a push
that ought to make it highly pros¬
perous.”—Extract from letter ot
Hon. J. M. Fletcher, editor of the
Manchester (N. II.) Advertiser.
The report of the Board of In¬
quiry of blowing up of the Maine
will be found in this issue, What
are we now to expect from congress
and the president of the United
States?
Hon. Thos. Watson has notified
those in power that he will not be
the populistic candidate for gover¬
nor of Georgia this year. Your
uncle Allen D. was probably the
buzz saw Tommy did not care to
monkey with.
Railroad Commissioner Atkin¬
son, who says that he is running
for governor, seems greatly wor¬
ried that your Uucle Allen wont
join him (n mud slinging. He said
he was sorry Col. Candler had sized
him up so completely and, in a let¬
ter to Col. Candler says : “I would
not have been able to bring myself
to believe it possible for you to sup¬
pose for an instant that any discuss¬
ion in which we three might have
engaged could by any possibility,
degenerate into the mere vaporings
of school boys or the indecent brawl¬
ings of the blackguards.
“The reference to school boys
and blackguards I little expected
to find in your reply, and you will
pardon me if 1 confess my disap¬
pointment that you did not choose
to place upon higher grounds your
refusal to engage in the joint dis
cussions suggested.”
Atkinson and Berner have been
throwing mud and guano at each oth
er, and a nosegay of antiquated aro¬
ma at Candler for the past month.
Candler was eminently correct. At¬
kinson is never far from a bunch of
the choicest billingate on the market
to aid his digestion and to hurl
at his superiors in both intellect
and manhood.
For Senator.
Ex-Representative M. T. Perkins
is a candidate for the senate. It is
probable th it Mr. Perkins can get
out more democratic votes in the
general election—when they are
really needed—than any other man
in the county. For Democratic
success and harmony it is best,
probably, that no other Democrat
contest the “chance” with Mr.
Perkins.
If the Democrats win it will be
by a united effort and the polling
of every Democratic vote in the
county, and circumstances seem to
point to M. T. Perkius as the Dem-
ocratic standard bearer for senator
from the 31st senatorial district.
Industrial South.
The following is an extract of a
speech made by Congressman
Griggs of Georgia :
We shall continue to agitate.
The money pow er may threaten or
cajole at its own sweet will. Gen-
tlemen may press unsought advice
and modern interpietations of an-
cient truths to their heart s content.
Their threats and cajolery, their
admonitions and interpretations,
will fall on deaf ears.
We long since outgrew our child-
hood’s belief in the mythology
which tells of the she wolf that
nurtured Romulus and Remus on
the banks of the yellow Tiber. We
™L' ,0 my^lo"; r U:U'
on our credulity the maternal in-
stincts of Wall street’s bulls and
:ars.
We have ho faith in a prosperity
based on confidence alone. We do
not believe that the great Jehovah
commands submission to depres¬
sion, whether it comes from Egypt
or from Babylon. We shall never
believe, while reason holds her
that too much cotton means
nakedness and too much wheat
means hunger. We shall not cease
our agitation until every jot and
tittle of the Chicago platform, that
second “Declaration of Indepen¬
dence’* is enacted into law.
Indeed, we shall not then cease
agitation, for we shall still be
mindful of the truth that “eternal
vigilance is the price of liberty.”
With the return of that prosperity
which shall be founded on the rock
of “equal rights to all” will come
the opportunity of the South. Tier
people, wide awake and elert, en¬
ergetic and determined, will not be
slow to grasp it.
They will utilize their God-given
forces for their own advancement.
If the end is New England’s undo¬
ing (and I do not believe it) she
will owe it to the degeneracy of
her sons. But if it must be, if si¬
lent factories and smokeless chim¬
neys shall be permitted to stand
amid New England’s hills, magni¬
ficent monuments to her former
greatness, grim sentinels of her
present distress, the people of the
South will be grieved, but they will
not be thereby turned from their
duty to themselves and to their
children. In their own way and
in the fullness of God’s own time
they will work out the task set be¬
fore them, without dishonor to
themselves and without material
harm to their neighbors.
In noting the fact that a La-
Grange negro who was under sen¬
tence of death for killing another
while in a state of intoxication be¬
cause the victim would not “set
up” the drinks, the Early county
News makes the following perti¬
nent and timely comment : “It is
getting time for the juries, the polit¬
ical judges, solicitor-general and
the pardon commission ofGeorgia to
realize that society is entitled to
some clemency and not the law¬
breakers all. That beastly drunk¬
enness should come in as an exten¬
uation of the crime of murder may
seem a very important discovery to
the minds of our amiable pardon
commission, but it does not strike
us as being very new in its political
application. 5 )
The Cat is out of the Wallet.
From the Dawson News.
The Waycross Herald, which is
one of Judge Atkinson’s chief or¬
gans, has let the cat out of the wal¬
let. In an ungarded moment it
confirms the suspicion that Judge
Atkinson is in the gubernatorial
race as the representative of a clique
of politicians who, in the event of
his success, hope to profit by it.
The Herald is not pleased at the
large number of newspapers in
south Georgia that are opposing
Judge Atkinson, and in order to
influence them to help along the
scheme throws out this bait :
“The newspapers in the wire-
grass which now refuse to support
a man from their own section for
governor may have an axe to grind
themselves at some time in the fu-
ture and it may be that they will
have to grind it themselves.”
In commenting upon the Herald’s
bold admission that Judge Atkin¬
son is being supported on the “axe
to grind” principle the Atlanta
Commercial says :
“This is rich. The Herald must
have a poor opinion of the functions
of a governor if it thinks the office
was created for the purpose of
grinding axes. If the Herald has
no better use for Judge Atkinson
than to grind axes for the wiregrass
pullers it should in self respect keep
silent.”
The foundation of Judge Atkin¬
son’s candidacy is being gradually
revealed, and the people are rapid¬
ly making up their minds to defeat
the schemers.

Printer’s Ink.
There was a man in Toccoa town,
attd he was wondrous wise; for
when he marked his prices down 5
he then did advertise.
And when he saw his trade in-
crease, with all his might and main,
he marked still lower everything,
and advertised again.
And when he advertised again,
his rivals cursed and swore, to see
folks go with a mighty rush to pat-
ronize his store.
And when they sat in solitude
and saw him custom win, that man
behind the counter stood and raked
them nickles in.
And when he raked the nickels
and saw his fortune rising, he took
a goodly lot of ink and kept on ad-

D. W. Edwards: “I see no rt a-
son why I should not favor a new
school building.”
Mr. W. L. Vickery : “Our pres¬
ent school building is a disgrace.
There is not a town in the slate
with half the population of Toccoa
that has as sorry a building. Anew
school building should go up this
summer. There is no use to wait.*’
Air. E. R. Davis: “I am for a
new school building. It ought to
be put up at once. Our present
building is nothing but an old barn,
and is not large enough. It would
be senseless to add more to that.
We must have a new house, and
higher course of study. It has been
some time since I used to go to
school down there, but I know how
cold I used to get. ? ?
Mr. R. A. Ramsay; “We must
have a new school house, and now
i sthe time to build it. The house
ought to be ready to enter this
fall.”
Mr. B. P. Brown : “A good
school building will do Toccoa
more good than many courthouses.
It is what we need and must have.
Now is the time to act. With a
new school building and our course
of study raised , there is no reason
why we should not have from fifty
to one hundred boarders here the
very first term.”
Cashier W. R. Bruce : “I am
frank to confess that we are much
in need of a new school building,
and I will give as much as any man
in Toccoa towards building one;
but I do not believe it would be
right to issue bonds for that pur¬
pose at the present time. It is not
right to tax non-residents who own
property here for such purposes,
and I shall fight the proposition.
The tax rate is too high now.
Mr. W. J. Hayes: “We ought
to issue the bonds and put up the
building at once. Our school build-
iug is a disgrace to the town. > j
Mr. R. M. Wheeler: “If we
want to build up Toccoa, that is
the only way to do it now. We are
getting behind all other towns.
We have the advantage of a public
school system, and we Gught to
benefit by it by making it as effi-

Dr. J110. Mcjunkm : “If an y

posed to issuing $15,000 or $20,000
worth of bonds for that purpose,
but most heartily favor building a
five or six room house, and the is-
suance of bonds to raise that
amount. Toccoa ought to have a !
better school house, and now is the
time to build it. It would be a,
great benefit to the town, and a
bonded debt of $6,000 or $7,000
could not hurt us.’*
C. L. Mize : “We are living for
our children, and any thing we can
do for them, in reason, ought to be
done. Our present school building
is not sufficient to accomodate the
children of the town, and as
tors now stand, we cannot ask any-

NEW DISCOVERY
CAUSES
Specialist Surprised by Its An-
nouncement.
** .....” ble ^
awe-inspiring display of medical
learning and general discussion oi
current topics of vital interest to
the medical fraternity, made up
the session of the southern branch
of the American Larynological,
Rhinological and Otological Socie¬
ty, which was in convention in
the Kimball house in Atlanta last
Monday.
Half a hundred of the most re¬
nowned specialist in the south were
together to deliberate
the best methods of success¬
fully accomplishing their work.
spent a day in swapping ex¬
periences and debating the merit of
various methods. Forty-eight pa¬
pers were on the programme besides
the discussion on each paper.
The doctors present were from
dl over t tie southern states and all
>f them are men of prominence.
They are all specialists, most of
them confining their practice to
nose, ear, mouth and throat troub¬
les, or disease caused by the growth
of adenoid vegetation.
The feature of the convention
was a new and important discovery
in the physiology of the ear, which
discovery it is said will revolution¬
ize the treatment of deafness and
ear troubles. This discovery is the
result of years of study by Dr. W.
F. Cole, of Waco, Tex., who is an
old Georgia boy reared in the sound
of Toccoa Falls.
The discovery was made known
for the first time Monday, and even
then only to the doctors in session.
The details of the discovery will be
made public in May, when the
matter will be published simulta¬
neously intbe medical andscientific
journals of this country and Eu¬
rope.
The accepted theories that have
been a medical relig; 01 tor Centui-
ies are smashed bv Dr. Cole’s dis¬
covery. It has been always accept¬
ed as a physical fact that soum
waves are transmitted from ! fit-
outer drum of the ear to the innei
by the ossicles or chain of little
bones that connect the outer and
inner sections of the ear. These
little bones are very delicate and
are liable to decay, and ear special¬
ist have always regarded a case of
deafness caused by the decay of
these little bones as being very dif¬
ficult to cure.
Dr. Cole claims that sound waves
are not transmitted over the ossicle
bones. He says the sound waves
first strike upon the outer drum of
the ear, then pass through the air
in the tympanum and then strike
upon the drum that is directly con¬
nected with the fluids of the inner
ear or the labyrinth of the ear.
For one hundred years doctors
have observed the phenomena
which led Dr. Cole to make his
discovery, but they have been mis¬
led. Dr. Cole’s discovery was en¬
tirely accidental even though he
has been studying the matter for
years. He noticed that most ear
doctors treated ear troubles on the
theory that after the ossicles were
ff es t r0 y et j the sound waves are still
traveled through the cavities left,
but he, by stopping these cavities
w jth cotton, found that the sound
waves W ere transmitted with much
g rea t er e ff e ct. He investigated and
found that the cavities had, instead
of transmit tin H K the sound waves,
] ost them by dispersing the waves
j n t h e cavities. By following this
jff ea j) r Cole says he discovered
w ff a t will set aside the beliefs that
h ave ff een prevalent for ages.
The discovery created quite a
sensation among 0 the specialists. 1

Which is better, to thoroughly

the many dangerous
which are so prevalent during
summer? Impurities hare been
accumulating in the blood all
winter, and right, now is the.time
C oume of SwifUs Specific bU is n«dfd
to dean*, the and pur,
fy the system, toniug up and
strengthening it all over. Those
who take this precaution now are
comparatively safe all summer;
but to neglect it is to invite some
form of sickness which is so com¬
mon during the trying hot season.
It is now that a course of Swift’s
Specific

will accomplish so much toward
rendering the system capable of
resisting the evil influences which
are so liable to attack it during
the summer when sickness is so
abundant. It is the best tonic
