not be shaken off. And back of all, the
gigantic figure of tbe -‘only victor,"
(Inner Cleveland, looms up as if to take
command. There Is onongh uncertainty
to add spice to the contention, and
there will he no cat and dried program
of events. It takes a crowd of Demo

fashioned kind of entlmalatm like our
fathers used to make. Keep your eye

Stories of The Street.,
Legislator Calvin turns out os many
-bills as a modern author does novrls,
and makes a hit oftener. The Savan
nah Press very pertinently remarks:
The resolution of Mr. Calvin of Rich*
mond to provide for special exercises In
the public schools in Georgia com memo-
Jjrivo of Mr. Stephens andGcncralGor-
don, lea good one. This is better then
a holiday to ebeerve the day of their
nativity. Sometimes we think that the
best tray to celebrate the anniversary of
Jefferson Davis’ birth would be by ex.
ercises iu the schools rather than a holi
day in the hot inn outside of the sohool.
The Georgia lawyers are good at mak-
iug recommendations. Here are some
of their recent oues presented to the bar
association, but not acted upon:
It ahould be unlawful for a state offl
oarormembor of tho legislature to ao-
oept railroad passes, and the legislature
Hhculd appropriate out of the publio
treasury a sum sufficient to pay the rail
road fan of such officers and legislators.
Rotation of judge* over the state is
reoommendod. All superior court jud
ge* to hold for six yean. Salaries of
supreme court judge* should be (MOO
and superior court judge* $0000.

A man at the postoffiee yesterday
morotng who owed both box rent and

It is said tlmt the long tuple gins to

WHAT IS CATARRH?
Hyomei Duly Guaranteed Cure for Udn
Common and Disagreeable dieaaan.
Hvornei cures catarrh by the
method of breathing it iuto the air i
ages and longs. It kills the geraa of
catarrlial poison, heals aud sooths tho
irritated mucous membrane and effec
tually drives this from tlie system.
If you have any of the following
symptoms, catarrhal germs are at work
somewhere in the* mucons membrane
of the throat, bronchial tubes or fisnat
of the lungs.
Offensive breath, hoakiasss of raic*
drynesa of the ncse, discharge from tke-
nos«. pain in the back of tbe hand, nob-
iug of tlie b.idy, pain iu i rout of tbo
head, dropping m tbe liicoat, month
open while sleeping, tendency to takc-
oold, burning pain in the throat, tick-
ling back of the palate, hawking to clonr
the throat, formation of crusts in tbo
nose, a pain in the chest, a cough, dry
ness of the throat in the morning, ifitch
in the side, spasms of coughing,
of liable appetite, cough short
awl hacking, variable appetite, low
spirited at times, rising frothy and mu
cous, ooagh worse nights and mornings,
expectorating yellow matter, lorn of
vital force, a feeling of tightness across
the upper part of the chest, difficulty in
breathing, frequent sneezing,
Hvornei will distroy activity of nil
catarrlial germs in tho respiratory organs
and in a few weeks tlie core will* ho
complete.
This is a strong statement, bat J. W.
Peacock empliasizes it by agreeing to
refund your money if Hyomei does not
