WATSON’S VIEWS. Thevleweof Mr. ThowneE. Watson on the last nationnl else lull are of In tcrest. He sajs that no hope of roform Is found in the Domooratlc party. He hopes In crganlze the proplo along the Uue, of "■Jeffersonian Domooracy” es laldish reform pnirer, and propagate "Jeffersonlau Democracy." He evb den tlv do. a not expect any ooalltiou with Ucarst or B.ynn. Iu regard to Georgia he eaye: "My own etato of Georgia is ax oom pletely ouder the thumb of Morgan and Balmont, one ot whom controls tho Boo them railroad comblue, tho other cf whom ooetrols the Leniaville & Nash ville oombine, a* the state ot Peuntyl Vania ia under the oentrol of the Penn aylvania railroad. The situation la •imply appalling and would not be be- lleved by anyone who waa not conver ■ant with the faots. I expect to retnrn home and open a campaign on the Hum ot Jeffersonian democracy to take onr state government out ot the oomrol of of Morgen and Belmont, and to pnt is iu the oootrvl of Georgia people, where it belongs. In nearly every southern state there is a similar contest to be waged against corporation tyrauuy. By the time the next presidential election comes a-wntid there is every reason to believe that there will be a sufficient sentiment iu favor of the reform princi ples embodied in the national platform of tiie People's party to win soccssa at the polls. It all depends upon the work which is done iu the yean between now nud then. I expect to do my share of it,ttiiat is all I can my at present. I will, however, repeat that I have not purchased or routed a home in New York, or anywhere else, and do not ex pect to do so.

We haven't heard that anyone is worrying over the financial condition of the A. C. L. but it they are their minds can 1 o relieved by reading tha following dispatch from Rlcltmoud. Richmond, Nov, IS —Stockholders of the Atlantic Coast Line met to-day and declared a dividend of twenty-five per cent on the common stock; twenty per cent cash, five per cent on certificate of Indebtedness, pavabls in January. The capital stock was increased to fifty million dollan. Thera was no change in the officers. Tbe porcluue of the Jacksonville and Southwestern railroad was approved. Very favorable reports about the Lowry cotton picker are being tent oat. The following is a sample; The Lowry Cottou Picker, u tcefod in Albany last week, pawed a grand success. Capitalists from the North were present and agreed to famish the money to place it on the market. It is claimed that it will pirk nt least one- fourth of next .years' cotton crop. It will pick tan bales a day, at n coat not exceeding four dollars a day, and nt present prices for picking cotton will pay for itself in thirty day* The light proposition is' weighing heavily on tho scales of jnstico. The new gome Iuwb have made qur-i! scarce on the market. We will tike qaail on snbsciiption.

A keen observer svys it is ■ peculiar feature ot Wall street tpeeniatiou that the novice never gets his oourage worked np to buy stocks nutil tlie market is right on the top, and he never couclnde* to sell nutil the market is clear on the bottom." Political statisticians will be interested in knowing that the Democratic con gressional vote in the eleven districts totals #4,398. This ia about 30,000 more than Parker’s vote. Judge Griggs, in onr owu district received 8,03tVotes and bad fewer cast against him than any othtr candidate. 17 of the ballots in the second, bore the name of A. Finley, who wee a candidate in the eleventh. Theee 17 were the only one* coat against tho Judge. We often hear the admonition to temper justice with mercy. It ia also n good idea to temper mercy with justice, beggars Hook to Thomasville daring the whiter months and indiscriminate giv. lng make* impostors .wax fat.

Every Two Minutes Physicians tell us that all the blood in a,healthy human body passes through the heart once in every two minutes. If this action be comes irregular the whole body suffers. Poor health follows poor blood ; Scott’s Emulsion makes the blood pure. One reason why SCOTT’S EMULSION js such a great aid is because it passes so quickly into the blood. It is partly di gested before it enters the stomach; a double advan tage in this. Less work for the stomach; quicker and more direct benefits. To get the greatest amount of good with the least pos sible effort is the desire of everyone in poor health. Scott’s Emulsion does just that.
