WEDNESDAY, JULY 10, ISM.
Our diplomats abroad arc kept
busy—drawing and spending their
salaries. Pleasant employment, this.
A man may be a dandy and not a
dude. Ard he may be a dude and
not— Well, he can't be anything else.
It is said that the American mosqui

Mr. Bull, the mosquito will present his

What lias become of the corres
pondence between Gov. Gordon and
Gov. Taylor, in reference to the hip-
pocket ltoodlurnsjwho had taken re
fuge in Tennessee? It would doubtless
be interesting reading. Lets have it.
Germany is still threatening the
pluckly little republic of Switzerland.
Germany' ought to lie ashamed of
herself. But we haven’t noticed any
blushes on the hard cheek of Bis-
mark.
A big ball is on the tapis in Atlan-
a, to celebrate the completion of the
tew capitol. Every member of the
egislature is expected to appear in
. swallow tail coat and a freshly
aundried shirt: neck ties arc optional.
Tom Woolfolk has been taken back
© Bibb county jail. Tom is sonic-
hing of an elephant on Bibbs hands.
Ter pocket book, at least, looks like
in elephant had stepped on it, since
the series of trials took place in Tom’s
The great priz.e fight, fought in the
tate of Mississippi, in violation of the
aws of that state, was an outrage on
he people of that commonwealth. If
Massachusetts will persist in producing
cruisers, let them ply their vocation
n the land ol baked beans.
Encourage Public Improvements.
The danger that the pendulum will
swing just a “lcetlc” too far, in the
matter of railroad legislation, appears
to be cropping out in Atlanta. Geor
gia, while protecting her citizens
against monopolies, whether they he
railroads, trusts or combines of any
kind, should not go to the extent, in
the first case, of crippling railroad
building. Give everybody a chance
to build a railroad. Encourage their
building. They arc the great devel
opers of the day. Hostile legislation
against any class, whether it he the
riclt or the poor, big corporations or
small ones; provided these corpora
tions arc doing, or propose to do, a
legitimate business, is a ruinous policy.
Georgia, just now, is on the eve of the
greatest development of her resources
known in iter history, and any legisla
tion which would drive capital front
the state, would he suicidal. These
enterprises, these capitalists, can lie
given encouragement ami a fair show
ing in Georgia, without endangering
tho rights of the people. I he inter
ests of railroads and people are not
inimical; rather are they mutual. The
people arc interested in new and com
peting lines ol roads; and the roads
arc interested in the prosperity of
every citizen along their lines. If the
people prosper the railroads prosper.
Let justice be done till parties, people^
railroads and all corporations.
The Boston Herald says that “if
climate, accessibility and natural re
sources count for any thing, the great
central section of our southern coun
try is destined to he the manufacturing
center of the United States, this be
ing only another form of saying, the
future workshop of the world.'’
When Boston will get down front
her stilts and talk this way, it would
appear that the millennium is gradu
ally dawning.
The chief electrician of the Western
Union complained at lack of courte
sies extended by the matin gets of the
iSullivau-Kilrain tight, and charged
that these pugilistic gentlemen were
trying to squeeze every dollar they
could out of the public. The W. U.
lias been engaged several years in the
“squeezing” business, itself.
A good deal of guessing is going on
as to who is the real purchaser of the
Dublin and Western Air Line, ic-
ccntly bought in at public sale by Mr.
B. A. Denmark. Mr. Denmark is
persistently reticent.
If Tanner, Forakcr, Chandler, In
galls & Co., carry out their plans,
two hundred and fifty millions of
dollars, additional, will he required to
pay the pension roll oi the country.
Is there no way of lighting these
vultures back from the public
treasury?
A Texan has made llte discovery
that chewing tobacco is a preventive
against consumption. Wonder it
Lorillard hasn't put up this job through
the wild western Texan?
Every state in the south ought to
iss a stringent law against prize fight-
g. Here is a chance lor some mem-
:r of the Georgia legislature to give
illivan a blow, a blow which John L.
innot return. And in this lies the
fety of the Georgia legislator.
Ben Butler has his cocked eye on
inada. He advocates the absorption
that territory and people. Canada
ill .never consent to come into the
nion—so long as Ben Butler lives.
Itey may come in after Butlor gets
it, Shrewd fellows, these same Ca-
idians.
Col. Buck will dispense the census
tp in Georgia. Here’s a job for
mebody in Thomts. Put in your
•plication. It is sometime until the
jrk begins, the 1st of June, 1889,
it there is nothing like being on
me—or ahead of time. A man who
■ts an office now lias to scuffle for it.
nd there’s a heap of scuffling going
i. The democrats are scuttling—on
e outside. They will he scuffling to
it back in ’92. Taken altogether
ere is a lot of scuffling going on.
The man who has just boen appoint
ed governor of Wyoming is said by
the chief justice of the supreme couit
of the Tcritory to be guilty of fraud and
perjury, and the judge seems to have
made out bis case. But the governor
is a good and consistent republican
and can count on holding his office.—
Telegraph.
O, yes, ot course.
The Question of School Books.
From all over the state there
going up complaints against the wrong
done to parents by the system of com
netting them to buy a certain series of
hooks for their children.
A great deal is being said concern
ing trusts or combines, and justly, too,
but the publishers of school hooks
have escaped so lar; and yet, if there
are more inlantous trusts in the coun
try than those into which the aforesaid
publishers have entered, it has failed
to show itself. Whether willingly or
otherwise, the school hoards in the
various counties in the slate have fos
tered these trusts by buying their
hooks at about 200 per cent above
what they should cost.
No wonder the people are kicking,
and if they grow so loud in their com
plaints as to overthrow the system ol
school hooks now in vogue, it will he
a fine exemplification of the old adage
that the voice of the people is the
voice ot God.
He Wants Them to Emigrate.
Topeka, Ivans., July 8.—W. L.
Edgelsott, a prominent tiegro politician
of this State, is the prime mover in a
scheme to induce the negroes of the
South to emigrate to Oklahoma. He
has organized an immigration company
composed of some of the prominent
colored men of this State, and he ex
pects to have one himdred thousand
colored people in Oklahoma by next
July. He intends to go South him
self shortly.”
Now we may look for an Oklahoma
craze among the negroes. The whites
have been sold, and G'uflec is to he
made the next victim. If the latter
arc smart they will give the new terri
tory n wide berth. They will never
final a better place than the South.
Strength to vigorously push ft busi
ness, strength to study for u profession,
strength to regulate 11 household,
strength to do a day's labor without
physical pain. Do you desire strength?
It you tire broken down, have no energy,
teel as it life was hardly worth living,
you can be relieved and restored to ro
bust health and strength by taking
P,own’s Iron hitters, a sure euro for
dyspepsia, malaria weakness and all dis
eases requiring a true, reliable tonle. It
arts tut the blood, nerves and muscles,
and regulates every part of the system.

We desire to suy to our citizens, that for
years we have been selling Dr. King’s New
Discovery tor Consumption, Dr. King’s New
Life I’ills, l.ueklcn’s Arnica Salve and Elec
tric Hitters, and have never handled reme
dies that sell as well, or that have given
such universal satisfaction. We do not hesi
tate to guarantee them cverytjmc* and we
stand rcaily to refund the purchase price, if
satisfactory results do not follow their use.
These remedies have won their great popu
larity purely on their merits.

Any attempt by the legislature to
prohibit any foreign or state road, from
competing when the Western anil At
lantic is offered for lease, will he a
mistake. Take tho bridles off and let
the biggest bona fide bidder have the
road, with the proper restrictions.
Wannmaker is changing the color
of the postage stamp from green to
red, and he is, also, changing the color
of the postal route agents from white
to black. Wanamaker appears to be
color blind.
Four or five persons were killed
outright on a railroad train, near Bir
mingham, Ala., the other day. Bir
mingham is determined to sustain its
well earned reputation for lawless
ness.
The rental of the state road ought
to be sufficient to put the common
schools on a good tooting, and to lend
a strong helping hand to the State
University and the branch colleges.
T’is said that Ferocious Forakcr is
