THE BANNER solicits news from Its friends
In the city, but we cannot reealva announce
ments of meetings and similar notices ovei
telephone. We ask our friends to kindly write
all such notices and mall them to the editor of
The Banner, or send to the office by messenger
We are always glad to print such notices for
our friends, hut wa just have not the time to
taka them by telephone. Our friends will
please bear this In mind.
All communications for publication MUST bs
accompanied by the real name of the writer.
The writer’s name will be withheld when the
request is made, but the editor must know from
whom each communication comes.
There will be no deviations from these rules
In the future.
We should not lo«8 sight of the fact
that we are still In need of the uniOD
depot.
It develops that there was an etTort
made to assassinate the Czar of Russia
a few days ago.
The new hotel shonld be worked np
np before the new city hall and the gov
ernment building are completed.
The summer school fund took a nice
jump Tuesday and yesterday and we
should keep It jumping until it is oom
pleted.
The New York Time* wants to know
It all executed murderers are martyrs
bocaose they have died from their con
victloni.
The Washington Post has discovered
that there is enongh of the New England
anti imperialistic league left for dinner
giving purposes.
A GREAT MAN.
We have observed that men and news-
»apers who were hitter in their denun-
iatiou9 of Grover Cleveland a few years
.go are now admitting that he is a great
uau, a great leader and a true Demo
net. All of this is encouraging as it
nukes for a united and aggressive Dem
ocracy in the n< xt presidential campaign"
tiis words of cheer and guidance once
more command the respect of the misled
rank and Me, and it is evident that Mr.
veland has the popular confidence and
it cannot be denied that it extends far
yond the limits of the party to which
le gives allegianoe. The statement of
nis views written for the New York
World has been accepted by the Democ
racy as the proper party policy and a
beacon that lights the way to the harbor
of victory. He does not measure his
words in exposing the Btraying oil' after
false gods that resulted in the defeat of
the party in every national election
since 18D'J, but he doos not dwell on this
dark picture with any feeling of bitter
ness, but. on the contrary, his touo is
one of good cheer for all Democrats.
It is in pointing the proper course for
the Democratic party to follow in the
present and the future that his words
merit and should have close attention.
He well says 1 "The hope of the Demo
cratic party lies in the inevitable discov
ery by our people of its benevolent aims
and purposes," because so altered aie
the views of proteotiouists that "they
are inclined to accept with favor the
adoption of the Democratic doctnue ol
a tariff for revenue.”
Mr. Cleveland makes clear that lu i>
confident that aggressivo expansion sacli
as we are witnessing today in the Phil-
ippines, and its incompatability with
what has always been regarded as true
Americanism will bocoine an important
factor in political thought, and fie is
also confident that "the tremendous
growth of trusts, the immeuBe business
aggregations and the manner in which
they stills healthful competition and
throttle individual enterprise caunct
long he passed unheeded by the voters
of the land.”
He sees and the members of his party
sees only hope and confidence In the
future of the Democracy, hence he asks
that it be true to itself and its profes
sions of devotion to the welfare, not of
class, bnt of all the people.
A few days more and the present ses
sion of the general assembly will go
down in history—and there will be very
little in the record to brag about.
The Sparta Ishmaelite "trusts that
Governor Terrell will never have occa
sion to brag abont how cheaply he can
borrow money.” Amen! says the Al
bany Herald.
The Times-Union and Citizen an-
noncee that from all points of the north
ern half of the compass come reporta of
heavier tonrist travel Florldawards this
winter than ever before.
The Banner's dot oontest will close
Monday at midnight. Those who have
not sent in their answers and want to
participate in the distribution of the
prize money shonld get in their answers
at onoe.
The Angnsta Chronicle says: “In
Hyle’a presentation of ‘Nathan Hale’ at
the opera honse at Saturday matinee,
there is a lesson in patriotism that will
do any American oitizen good to hear
and see.”
The commercial traveling men with
headquarters In Athena are great adver
tisers for this city. All along the line
they tell of the greatness of Athens and
in this way oontribnte largely to the
growth of the city.
Editor W. T. Shy tie, who has recently
taken oharge of the Adel News, is doing
splendid work on that paper. Mr. Shytle
was for a number of years connected
with the Valdosta Times. He is a splen
did young man and The Banner predicts
that he will make a great snocees in the
management of the Adel News.
Some effective work shonld be pat in
within the next few weeks on the pro
posed fair for next year. There is little
time to lose now if we woold make a
greet success of the agricultural fair in
Athens next year. SuOh a fair would
do the oity m:re good than all the earn!
rals and street fairs combined, and we
shonld not let this opportunity pass.
Eruptions
Dry. moist, scaly tetter, all forms
of eczema or salt rheum, pimples
and other cutaneous eruptions pro
ceed front humors, either inherited,
or acquired through defective di
gestion and assimilation.
To treat these eruptions with
drying medicines is dangerous.
The tiling to do is to take
Hood’s Sarsaparilla
and Pills
Which thoroughlycleanse the blood,
expelling all humors and building
up the whole system. They cure
Hood's -Sarsaparilla permanently cured J.
G. Hines. Franks. III., of e.-zenia. from which
he had suffered for some time; and Miss
Alvina Wolter. Itox 212. AI iron a, Wis.. of pim
ples on her face and l.aek and chafed skin on
bar body, by which she had been gristly
troubled. There are more testimonials lu
favor of Hood's than can be published.
Hood’s Sarsaparilla promises to
euro and keeps the promise.
Nelson*. Only Defeat.
Nelson, like :i11 the prettiest com-
■minders on sen or hind, made his inis
lakes and his failures, hut there is only
one instance on record of his having
been actually defeated in a direct at
tack. Ti ls occurred at Santa Fritz, in
the Cnttrry islands, on .Inly ‘2-1, 1707.
The pine-* was very strongly fortified,
mil Ncls ai, in the face of a fire of fifty
nuns from the batteries, attempted to
storm the town by boats. The attempt
was frustrated liy tlio strength of the
mole and the nonapiicarance of a land
force which shonld have co-operated.
A hundred and fifty men were killed
and a hundred wounded on the British
side, and Nelson lost Ills right arm.
Two flags were also captured, and
these are still kept lu the cathedral of
Santa Cruz.
A nation Voices
Could hardly express the thanks of
Homer Hall, of West Point. Ia. Listen
why: A severe cold had settled on his
longs, causing a most obstinate cough.
Several physicians said he had consump
tion, but could oot help him. When all
thought he was doomed he began to

sumption and writes: "it completely
