It Was attempt to blo&d the mam lame, to con fine and noddle fasts, and to prevent the matter go^ng before the Thomas- vllle people. He objected to the pro vision requiring tbe mayor sod council to favor mnoicipat ownership before it wet committed to the people. The present adminUtmllon liad declared neither for nor against mnnldipel own ership, but it was in favor of letting the people express their will at the polls. He said 'that what was sauce to the goose was sauce to the gander; and that if arbitration hound one side it ought to bind the other. He favored t/ie local bill, and hoped that it would' pass. Mr, Roddenbery's speech was punctu ated by frequent applause, and the smile-wreathed faces of the spectators when lie made some unusually telling shot, showed that he had the crowd with him.

A local bill bus been introduced iu the Honse of Representatives by Representative Mitchell authorizing Tliomusville lo use, buy or build aud equip an electric light plant for the oity’s street* and bnildlnga, with power to operate iudi plant fpr the city'a benefit aud to sell electric light and powor to qbnaumsrt. A general bill authorising cities and towns to oWn, operate, boy or sdll plants was lutroducod in the senate by Sena tor Park at the request of an owner o* a pi irate plant in Newnau. This gener al bill if passed would of course govern ThomaavUlo. But tbe general bill con tains certain other important provisions whloh wore bought out nod defended iu.a speech before council, by Got. 8. G. McLendon, attorney for tho Thomuvllle Electric Light Company. Col. McLendon ie an eaay, graceful speaker. He la one of the best inform ed men in the sdatb. His talk* are rich in illustrations and teem with historical allusions. He speaks earnestly but quiet ly nnd occasionally lay* strong ompliu- sis on a strong point. He first gave a history of the general bill, sliowlug that it applied to other cities than' Thomas- rllle, was not aimed at Thomasville alone, aud was by no means, a secret nor did its backers endeavor to ruslijt through. He showed that Alder man Hansel! approved of tlio bill and was present at its heariug before the general judiciary committee, Ho took up the bill aeetiou by section. He said that Its opponcut.i had objected to the issuance of bouds. Honda "may," not must" bo issued. He defended tho section providing tlut any city or town Iu which private capital is invested most bsfoije dee roy! ng it by public compctitiou offer to buy or oompel arbitration, either of which may bo declined by the owner of tho private plant. He referred to tho section mak ing arbitration binding upon tlie munic ipality and not upon the private plant The spectators tip-toed from room, the clerk bogau to read the bills, puyable, committees droped reports and tho excitement whs over. Bat n new feature that hints of fdturo (rouble was carried away by those who had boon present. Col. McLendon, the corpora lions' attorney, admitted the right or the city to grant a purchase to any one besldel the present electric light com pany. which holds a twenty year fran chise, bat would not grant the oily’s right to engage in that business itself. This may mean litigation. Announcements. For Sheriff.

It really seems refreshing in ' these dayt of germs and microbes to know that there .is one disease at least where a germicide does not have to be used to cure it. Djrrpepaia is a plain, ordinary, < mon miserable disease that has all kinds of causes except, a gerui.

No one should hesitate trying this remedy. It is as certain to be successful, in curing dys pepsia and stomach troubles a* any thing can be. A two weeks' treatment costs bot 60 cents.
