An article wliich appeared in ai
tss.ie of The Journal, of April 14t’
is i-urely having a splendid effect, it
a much a*
“Down wi h Such Political Schemes’'
is being cussed and discussed a greai
deal, and especially by the few poo
pie who reside in Banks pountv, am
who, in order to carry a politics'
point appear to be willing to see soun
of their Democratic friends go dowi
in defeat in order to get some Popii
lists into the County offices; and, by
*o doing be able to control such infin
dices *s are made by these office seek
eis’ nomination and election.
Since this article app -ired and, be
cause a most awful political schem
was exposed bv the Journal, there ha
been a great deal of uneasiness felt
by those office seekers who are no--
members of the County Democruti.
Executive Committee—who can now
be cal'ed full fledged candidates.
Tie Journal has been a st ong be
liever in clean, fair and honest polities
and has ever been mum on this mat
ter, until such a rotten and mean
p dltical scheme a* the one which wa
outlined week before last become
known to us, Then it becomes our
duty to do everything within our pow
er to defeat such s hemes aud those
*>■ lie ters as uiav te found guilty of
perpetrating such r scheme.
Since the people of Ranks County
have been made aware of this scheme
—which is calculated to i”jure the
Democratic party in this ct.nuiy, and
to benefit ONLY A FEW OFFICE
Seekeis, — they have raised a terrible
howl, because of the unusual actions
of the Democratic Ex'tve Committee,
which consists principally of these
same office seekers, wtio, it is claimed
are doing all within their power for
thcmsclve, and for those supporters
of lion. F C. TATE and his few
friends m this county who do not ap
pear to cure what becomes of the old
time Democratic party ands ime of
tic* present D. mo;ra.ie county office
holders,
Unless we are very badly deceived,
in our fond hope that theold time and
true Democrats of this county will sdl
rise up and defeat this scheme that
will (if successfully carried out) result
in the almost utter ruin of the party;
von will see one of the most marked
change in the coudilijii of ciunty
politics that yon havj had the pteas
ure of having witnessed in many days.
We believe thatlhe Executive Cos *,
mittee has found itself in a pot of as
hot water as it tins ever experienced:
au l they are at a loss to know how
to proceed to do a good lot of work
for Mr. Taje and at the same time he
the choice of a majority of the Dem
ocratic voters of this county, for some
county office themselves. Such tricks
are not in accordance with the w ishes
of the true Democrats ot old Banks.
We realize that the Executive Cum
mittee know* that they have a most
difficult undertaking before them; in
thu Petting of this matter straight, and
still reserve for themselves even the
slim fighting chanee for their own
nominations and el< ctions which very
nearly the entire Executive eommitte
is working so earnestly for.
An insight into their little scheme
is not a difficult undertaking for the
many frienos of the present County
Democratic officers, and those true
democra's who are running for those
offices that will be left vacant by the
.xpiration of the t-aruis of those who
will not re-enter for re- election: And
ortho friends of Hon. Howard ibuiu
aon, who have given these matters a
‘itlle serious thought:
We believe that ere tong the Exec
utive Committe of Banks county will
be made aware of the fact that they
made a fatal mistake in attempting
to run such a scheme as that rough
shod over the true Domociatic voters
>f this County We also believe this
same Executive Commiteee will b.
orced to veald to the wishes of the
majority of the Eetnocratie voters pf
Banks Counny; and be perfectly wil
ling and only too glad anil anxious to

THE POWER TO COMMISSION.
Washington; April 23.—(special)
Under the call issued by the president
today, Georgia’s quota of the volunter
army will be 3,1/4 men.
Ths president's action in fixing the
figures at 125.000 created a good deal
of snrpnae because of the very p"si
tive announcement tqat tba number
would be 100, 000, but today he and
the se rotary of war reached a fina]
determination upon the figures named
in the proclamation. The exact rea
son tor tins is not apparent.
Letters and telegrams pouring in
upon senators and repiesentat ves in
dicate there is a general belief—first,
that the militia wil be called out in
tact. and second, that nobody else ex
cept one who is now enrolled as a mil
itiaman is to be given a chance. Roth
of these ideas are enoueous.
Under the call issued by tha Pres’t,
the stale militia organizations are not
called out as such. The call of the
president is for volunteers, and it w ill
be communicated to the governors of
the various states through .he war
department. Idle members of the
militia companies cannot be ordered
to respond to this call. Tuey have
as much volition in the matter as has
anybody else. Each individual is to
act for himself. If he voiun'eers he
does it purely as an individual.
Owing to the demand, or rather
the toques', made by the militia or
ganizdions through their represents
tives in congress, the bill which paved
the way for the president’s call ter
volunteers was so worded as to make
it possible for organizations existing
to volunteer in a body and thereby
preserve their organizations.
IT IS OTTIOX.VL WITH THEM.
Rut there is nothing to compel the
individual members of these state or.
ganizations to become a part of the
volunteer army unless they them
selves choose tc do so. In other
words, the call is for volunteers, and
the members of the militia comparics
are given tlie first chance. If the men
who are now enrolled as member- of
the militia companies aie given the
1 first chance. If men who are now eu
! roiled as members of these companies
find it impossible or inconvenient to,
them to enter the army, there is noth
ing to compel them against their wil
Many to enter the army at tins time,
end their failure to do so will paw
the way for others who may want to
volunteer.
The call is upon the governors for
volunteers. The governor of G-o
rgia, for instance, is asked to furnish
3.174 soldiers. In furn suing the.-,
soldiers the member* of themihtii
arc to be given the chance, flit
records of the war department show
that there are 4 355 militia nen actu
ally serving in Georgia, It therefore
militiamen up to the number 3J74
desire to serve, there will be no chance
tor anybody else Lul as I have said
It is entirely optional with each man
whether he becomes a volunteer or
not, and there may be chances far
many peop'e who are not members oi
any ol these companies.
The power to commission officers
up to and iirfiudiug colonels is in thu
hands of tLe gouinor, and is given
him for the express purpose of pre
serving the present organ:;: .tiaus if
‘hey desire it. In many cities thv&e
members of the militia organizations
who cannot go to the front are step
ping out, and their places are being
rapidly filled by others who want lo
go This plan will probably be foll -
owed everywhere.—OllL, In Atlanta

Stomach trouble is the common
name applied to a derangement of
the system which is keenly felt but'
vaguely understood. It may moan
inability to retain food or to digest
it. It may mean nausea, pain after
eating, fullness, inordinate craving
for food, or entire lack of appetite.
Whatever it means, there’s trouble,
and it’s with the stomach. If you
have stomach trouble, you will be

man who had it and was cured by

The province of Manzanillo has been

of a man who has been there, but not
pacified in the way Weyler wished it

A Locomotive’* KeuiHrtalile Jump Tliu
Snooping far I’asscpger ou a Itoug’j
Trains That Left the Truth and
lioturneU Haunina at Full Speett.
Tbt-re is wo question tbafwcllor
tben'icated cases arc ou record where
i it;,'.lrons wrecks .of railrctui tre -nn
have been averted ly rlniest seemi.ig
miracles. James K. White, general su
perintendent of the railway mail service
at Washington, relates the particulars
of a remark ibio jump of 2b bet made
by a locomotive. As Air. \v bile Ulls
the story, It was on the Ist of bcptcm-
Ler, lti)2, v.bcu a New York ai.d Uii
ct go mail train on the New Ytxk Ctn
tral, which vas ltbind time ai.d run
ning at a very l’igb rate of speed,
readied New Hamburg, where a 2b firrt
draw of u bridge was open, which open
space it is claimed the engine cleared
end lauded safely on the main portitn
of the bridge, thu rest of the train go
ing dov. n through the opening. While
the engine, it is said, made the leap of
2b feet iu safety, the engineer and fire
men, not having time to jump, were
both killed. John H. Cain, a postal
clerk, v.iir) killed, and JVI. E. Tow icy,
clerk iu tiungo, was seriourly injured,
the other postal clerks escaping unhurt.
While none of thu local railroad men
knows of any locomotives that are as
good jumpers as White’s or that do the
bounding jockey act, some cf them
know of miraculous and b.'.irl ri adth es
capes. Carlton Baris ( f the eld Ohio and
Mississippi for many years and mote
recently with the if. and O. 8. W. toils
that he auu i.'ii bwift a number of years
ago were riuing on a Uuin over tl a
Ohio and Eig bandy read when an ac
cident was narrowly averted. But let
Haris Ell the story;
“The read was about tbo roughest at
that thro I bud ever ridden over. Thete
were only a few passengers cu the train.
Swift and I were in the forward coacli
talking to the conductor when the soli
tary sleeping car passenger tame stag
gering in and said: ‘Mr. 0; uduetor,
jour road it so rough I can't sleep in
my berth. 1 have been pitched cut of
my berth twice iu the last quarter of
an hour. There must he something the
matter.’
“Tbo conductor picked up his lantern
and said, ‘Come on, anil f 11 go back
with you and see v. hut s wrung.’ Kwift
and I sat whore we were Luffing, and
very soon v>o saw that the helicoid
was being very violently pulled and the
engineer was whistling for brakes. The
train finally canto to a standstill, and
Swift and l kept cur seats and kept ou
talking. As, after five minutes or more,
there were no signs of the train going
ahead, we concluded to go hack and see
what was the cause of the delay
“The conductor and trainmen were
grouped about the sleeper with their
lanterns, and we 6con found cut that
the sleeper had left the hack ami had
1 pen running ever the tics for bow far
v.'e never knew. The night was pitch
dark and it was raining very hard. It
took rho n on at least three hours to get
the shepor on the rails again. The
wheels were vi ry near the end of the
tics, .mil had ;he train gone 100 yards
li.iiia. thu t.ee;at would have been off
the ties and over n high UTibnukiueut.”
Frank I 'm'.in cf the Missouri, Kan
sas anrl Texas eaid:
“I remember of n disastrous wreck
bring dlrac-'t lfiraculom iy averted cn
the Met. ..plus and Little Reck read
tlojjg a bunt It J. A pu.fcteßger tiuiu
was traveling i : a high rate of speed
when mo engine tbitw a j mce cf rail
about iLico In t leng out cf the track.
This i : oof rail was thrown at lca;t
25 feet licui the track. Swung-: as it
teems, the Li dcr baggage <av, coaches
and sleepers went over this place where
the rail was out and gained the rail
again without one of tbo ears leaving
the truck except when the wheels went
(.own cn to the tics at one end of tue
Lrokcu mil, only to mount the rail
again at the ether end of the track.
About ail tbo inconvenience the pas
sengers experienced was a slight shak
ing.”
Assistant General Passenger Agent
Ryan said:
“I remember two instances when the
lives cf engineers and firemen were
saved by a seeming intervention of
Providence. A number of years ago a
new trestle was being put in, and false
work') had been i rectqd to permit of tba
temporary passage of trains. The work
men had failed to put in some necessary
bolts. The first train that came along
was a freight. As soon as tbo engine
struck tbo false work it gave way, and
down went the engine. Tbo fall was ;
'• a of 50 i; et, and iu falling thu engine
made a complete revolution and alight
ed ou the ground upon its wheels right
side up, and the euginet r and fireman !
Loth escaped injury, although they |
were probably pretty badly jarred by I
the fail.
“The other case I know of is that of
a train running at a good speed when
tlie engine run into a large rook that ■
had fallen oa tbo track just at the !
month of a tunnel. The impact caused !
the tender to lend up from the rear end
and form a protecting hood over the en
gineer and fireman in the locomotive
cab, and they were uninjured. Had this
not occurred, they would either have !
been badly injure or had their lives
crushed out. ”
Another passenger man said yesterday:
“When I was a sleeping car conductor ;
on the old lota line, about 30 years ago, I
the train was late, and we were going j
