Let Us Have the Trains Again.
IT ere is great complaint in Savan
nah over the removal of trains 5 and
6 by the Savannah, Florida & Western
railway. It is to be hoped the even
ing trains to and from Savannah will
soon be restored.
The epidemic is practically at an
end. The quarantine will soon be re
moved, and with a revival of business
over the Savannah, Fior d* and West
ern the return of the night trams is
anxiously awaited.
The mail* are delayed. Travel is
inconvenienced. Communication with
points in South Georgia has almost
been suspended. The slow move
ment of letters and papers, the inter*
ruption to passenger travel has been
very serious.
Letters from Valdosta have been
known tb go to Jacksonville, thence
up into Georgia by the Georgia South
ern railroad, and fioal'y into Savan
nah by slow and tortuous routes.
This .thing should be speedly reroe*

Let us have prompt improvements
in the train service on this grelt high*
way. The people are tired of the
crippled service. They ask its resto*
ration. Savannah has suffered by this
withdrawal of important trains. The
Press hopes to chronicle the return of
these trains in a very few days.—Sa
vannah Press.
Savannah is not the only town in*
convenience! by the taking off of
five and six. ThomasviUe feels it
severely. The way the trains have
been running fur the past two or
three weeks it requires about two
days time to go to Savannah. This
is a great draw back to business and
we sincerely hope the old schedule,
will soon be restored.

Instructions Relative to School
Year.
To the County School Commissioners 0/
Georgia:
So many" inquiries, asking for per
mission to begin the schools tor 1894
the first of November, reach this de
partment, that I deem it my duty to
issue this circular for your informa
tion and^ guidance.
The School Laws in unequivocal
terms makes the school year and the
calendar year co-incident. This pro*
vision baa been emphasized by the re
fosal of- the General :Assembly to
change the date of commencement of
the scholastic year to the first of No*
yember as was proposed.
It would indeed bora “leap in the
dark” to commence the public term
now, when no man out tell what the
funds for 1894 ^riU be, what the
length of the termjrill be, what new
conditions may' be imposed by the.
Legislature soon to. assemble, or what
changes.in exiating*lawB may be made.
Some important alterations and ad*
ditions Will be recommended to the
General Assembly, which we trust
will.meet with their approbation and
become law; and np school before
theselacts are made known by this
departmefit could possibly reap any
benefits from these proposed amend*
meats.
As the officer charged with the ad
ministration of the school laws, I can
not authorize any school to begin the
public term new, or consent to any
arrangement for November and De
cember to be counted in as a part of
the school year of ’94.
I instruct you, the County School
Commissioners and the Members of
the Boards of Education, not to make
any arrangements, whatever, for. the
schools lor 1894 until instructions are
is wed from the Department of Edu
cation. .
The circular contaiuing«full direc
tions will be issued on the first day of
January, which is the earliest date
that authorizes ma to give you notice,
as to the approximate amount of the
School laud. Let us hope that the
circular in question will contain in
formation that will make 1894 a mem
orable year in the history of popular
education in Georgia.

The Repeal Bill Finally Passed.
The silver repeal bill, over which
the Senate so long wrangled and of
the nature of which all our readers
are familiar,- has finally. passed both
house*, and has received the Presi

It was taken up by the house shortly

nearly three hours of fillibustering

GEN. CLEMENT A. Eli®
HIS ADMIRABLE ADDRESS TO
THE VETERANS.
He-Appeals fo<* Organization and Sug
gests a Form of Constitution
For U. C. V. Camps.
•EKATK VETERANS. >
October, 1893/ Q
Cieeular'Xo. 1. • . -
The Major“ General commanding
the Georgia Division of Confederate
Veterans Associations takes this
method of submitting to the attention
of All Confederate association, and
Confederate comrades In Georgia the
following explanation of Confederate
Survivors Associations, and' the plan
by which it is proposed to make them’
permanently useful to thp State, and
he requests a . careful reading an<T
preservation of this circular.
1. From the time when the Confed
erate soldier returned from his battle
fields to rebuild', under adversity, the
wasted wealth of his State, it has bedn
felt that associations should bo formed
among those who had become brothers
indeed in the, tria’s of four years of
war. Accordingly many such frater
nities were organized and the reanion
of old comrades from year to year
have proven tp be occasions of de
lightful and increasing, interest But
the time has come when there is a
demand that these associations should
be made more general, more practis
cal, and become the, agencies, through
which the best memories of our great
struggle for principle should be pre
served and handed down as authentic
bis’ory to prosperity.
2. To meet this demand the organ
ic rti >n known as the 1 United Confed
erate Veterans was formed and each
State was constituted a division with
Xf»j*»r General appointed to the
nmand. In accordance with this
general plan the Major General com
manding the Georgia Division is pro
ceeding to organize Confederate As
sociations in every couoty in Georgia
with the assistance of his staff and
County Aides, together with the cor
dial co-operation cf his Confederate
comrades
The movement has met with univer^
sal favor and in a short onr
hopes will be realized by the forma
tion ofu good working camp in every
couuty.
3. It will b8 distinctly noted that
no political or sectarian discussions
are allowed and that the worthy ob*
jects are strictly fraternal, peaceful,
historical, patriotic and benevolent.
Ail Confederates who did any service
for the South, will be gathered to
gether with their wives, their sons and
their daughters, in a common pur-
mtereet of a high iodal character.
Our sons and daughters are deeply
interested in the story of the war,
and these occaaions will foster their
reverence for that exalted patriotism
which inspired their father’s to offer
life for imperiled liberty. \
7. Let all these objects be vigor*
, , — - —- . ously accomplished4n perfect brother-
Headq’ters Ga. Division. 1 ly accord. We recognizi a bond in
United Confederate Veterans. y our Confederate Bvamathies miliar
Moses and Tate. .Lawson and Rus
sell were paired.
AFFIXING THE SIGNATURES.
The bill was engrossed immediately,
and in twenty minutes, at 3:10 o’clock,
the formal announcement was made
to the Senate that its amendment had
been agreed to by the House. The
bill was hurriedly enrolled by Chair
man Pearson, of the committee on en
rolled bills, and at 3:30 o’clock was
presented to Speaker Crisp for his
signature. A fleet-footed messenger
cirriedjt to the Senate, where it was
signed two minutes later by Vice*
President Stevenson. Chairman Pear-;
son, with the bill under his arm,' en
tered a carriage waiting for him on
the p’aza in front of the capitol and
drove rapidly to the white house.
The President had been kept duly ad
vised of the progress of events.
A LIST OF THE VOTERS.
Indeed ho manifested so much
interest in the vote ia the House that
at his request a duplicate of the
names of those who had voted for and
against concurrence was made soon
after the roll call was completed, and
thiaJist was lying on his desk when
Mr. Pearson arrived with the bill.
Secretary Carlisle, Attorney General
Olney and Private Secretary Thurber
were present. After felicitating with
each other for a few moments over the
victory that had. been achieved, the
President took up the engrossed copy
of the bill and read it aloud. Then
picking up a quill pen he affixed his
autograph at 4:25 o'clock. And thus
sixty-five days, four hours and twen
ty five minutes after the extraofdinary
session convened the remedy of the
financial distress which Mr. Cleveland
demanded in his message was applied.
The vexed question u settled and
it is to -be hoped that all bitterness
that may-have been engendered by
the long strife will subside and that
unity of sentiment and concert of ac
tion may prevail in the democratic
ranks. The party has many ^pledges
enunciated in the platform to fulfill
and the party should poll itself solid
ly together for the work.
The Georgia Legislature. ;
The home has passed a bill to in.
crease the number of supreme court
judges from.three to five. The bill
passed by a votc of r26"to at.
The fioaince* committee has ageed
to report adversely on the bill to Jo-
crease the salarys of superior court
judges from $2,000 to $2,500.
Mr. Norman, of Colquitt, has intro
duced a bill to prohibit the 'sejmng.of
creeks and pondsJn that caualy.
The senate, after some discussion
on the cigarette bill, voted* to re
commit it. ^
out cherishing, any section’ll animosi
ties whatsoever. The history of the
great war will be gathered from the
recollections of the private so’dier and
citizen as well as from the officers and
records, so that posterity will learn
the thrilling facts from the actors
themselves who made the history.
The spirit of patriotism which de
scended to us from our heroic ances-
tory will be transmitted to our chil
dren through which alone can be
maintained our theory of popular
government.
4. In order to carry out ihjse noble
purposes an appeal is now made to
all Confederates to form one sub
stantial organization at least in every
county in Georgia without de’ay. To
do this let the following practical
stepe be taken by two or more com
rades in each county where uo asso
ciation has beerf formed:
Issue a call through your local
newspapers, all of which hav$ gener
ously aided our cause for a meeting
of all Con federates residing in the
country, to be held- at a designated
day at the county .site. When as
sembled and a temporary chairman
being appointed have the objec’s of
the meeting explained and adopt a
constitution after the form appended
to tbu circular, with such changes as
local circumstance* may require.
After addresses have been made
choose an early-date for the next
meeting, appoint committees, and let
all parties go enthusiastically to work.
5. The Constitution hereto append
ed will be> sufficient general guide,
hot jn addition it is suggested. that
the Historical Committee should be
composed of men from all command
and all parts ot the county and should
be divided into several sub*cgmmit
tees under the direction of the His
torian. It is the duty of this Com
mittee to compile complete rolls of. aU
companies from the county, and all
individuals who went from the county
into service and also those now resid
ing in it. The domestic history of
the county should be writ-ten to show
what was done at home to sustain the
Southern cause. The fact most also
appear that the material and . moral
welfare of-the county since this was
built up by Confederates and their
children. While fully appreciating
the fraternal citizenship among ns all
we know- that the South owes its
prosperity to Southern enterprise, and
we believe that it has resources now
developing, which inll make it the
great influential section of the Union,
The recoid when completed should be
placed in the custody of the ordinary
or clerk of the superior court.
6. The Annual Reunion should be
■ made an occasion of general oounty
our Confederate sympathies peculiar
to people who are conscious of the
purest patriotism in the brave at
tempt of the South to assert by arms
their faith in constitutional free, gov
ernment. Time will soon bear away
every Confederate soldier from earth j
but his fame will not fail unless the
love of liberty andjieroism die out
among men. . We are still strong in
energies, in numbers and in glorious
purpose to promote the welfare of the
“Land we Love,” and/we will con*
tinue our efforts' to the last. Then
we shall have the happiness tb -torn
over to onr children a splendid state
redeemed from all vestiges of war,-
prosperous in every section, as the
noblest heritage that ever fell to any
generation.
8. Confederate comrades of Geor
gia I You are earnestly urged to co
operate in this movement and give
yonr patriotic assistance to the pur
pose of perpetuating the true story of
Georgia’s illustrious part in the Con
federate War, and of recording the
history of those efforts in peace, which
are bringing a notable prosperity to
the State.

Apolya Remedy.
The several recent attempts to mur
der and murders of rich men and con-
troling spirits by cranks, suggest the
question, what is responsible for these
unprovoked and cold blooded* crimes?
Of course the primary -cause is a
diseased mind/bat that U not all.
A diseased appetite and‘moral
weakness create a love for whiskey,
hot association alone makes the drun
kard, There is not a case On record
where a man became a drunkard that
“ever took a drink except by himself
and in the privacy of his own cham
ber. It is the congeniality, and
similarity of tastes He finds in bar
room companions "that creates the
sympathy and temporary pleasure
that ta^es him froMMushomeand
family at night' to TEe ratoons, and.
kindred institutions and lands him in
the gutter and police station before
morning. ’ •
Just so with the crank, who, with-
out provocation, slays, in a mad mo
ment, the man who happens to be the
object of abuse and hate of his daily
companions. The primary responsi
bility for these crimes is a disordered
mind, but it is associations-that des
▼elops its dangerous qualities, and
turns in the direction of the bloody
crime, which, in too many cases, has
been the result.
-There is too much unwholesome
and incendiary agitation in this couns
try. Too much abase of prominent
men by business and political enemies
for selfish purposes. Words of abuse
from political or business opponents,
though they be uttered for a purpose
altogether selfish, and their author
may know that he is lying -in 'a gen
teel way, are not understood' by ig
norant people such as those who
would rob a fellow-man of his life on
an imaginary provocation, and make
on their minds a deep and dangerous
impression. >
Cease useless agitation.
Eliminate personalities from polit
ical and business rivalry both by the
press and the people and there will
be no more such crimes as the foul
assassination of Mayor Carter Har
rison.
The abuse of one piomiuent man
"in business or politics by another with
a labor agitator or ward politician or
two to scotch up when off alone with
his ignorant companions excites envy,
jealousy, hatred and desperation till
the man who has already a morbid
mind thus poisoned believes it his
Christian duty to end the career of
the blunt*of the abuse constantly
poured into his ears and finds pleasure
in an evil and an insane moment in
sacrificing his own life and that of a
fellow being to carry out what his
burning .brain and diseased mitd
leads him to believe is his duty and
a service to his imaginary oppressed
and ill used brother.
One of the fundamental principles
of this government is the right of
free speech, but free lying and abus
ing, free insanity and free murder
is quite another thing. Iu many
cases the greatest developers and
greatest pub ic men are the worst
abused ot all God’s earthly crealuies
by their business and political oppo
nents, and the iguorant classes of the
opposition believe every derogatory
sentence utteied and form their opin
ions and act according’y.
This is a bad state of affairs and is
growing worse, and as there is no
question as to the root of the evil, the
remedy must be applied.—Macon

P P, for the cure of rheumatism, neural
gia, dyspepsia, biliousness, etc. In 1861 I-
■' attached with bilious muscular rheuma-
, and have been a martyr to it ever
e. I tried all medicines I ever heard of,
and all the,doctor3 in reach, but I found
only temporarily relief: the pains were so
bad at times that that I did not -are whether
I !*ved or died. My digestion became so"
impaired that everything 4 a*e disagreed
witn me. My wife also suffered so intense
ly with dyspepsia lhat her life was a bur
den to her; 6he would be confined to her bed
for weeks at the time; she also suffered
greatly from giadiucss and loss of sleep.
Sometime in March 1 was advised to take
PPP, and before we (my wife and I) had
finished the second bottle of I»P P,-o
gestion began to improve. My pains sub-^
ridel so much that I have been able to work,
aud reeling like doing what 1 haven’t done
before in a number of years. We will con
taking PPP until we arc entirely
cured, and will cheerful!/ recommend it to
all suffering hurnai ity.
Yours very respectfully,
J. S. DUPRISS.
