Good Advice.
George F. Rowell Co n of New

authorities of the country, give
this advice to those who want to
reach the public:
"The best advertising medium
is THE DAILY PAPER. The
beat advertisement ia the one
that tells what you want to say
in the - fewest and plainest
words. So display it that it
will catch the eye. Insert it in
the best daily'paper—mind you
—THE BEST,”
It may coat more, but it will
pay you in even greater proper-,

McIntosh on the ‘‘committee.”
The methods of the Blalock commit
tee appear at tbia diatance to ba very
indiserete and unbcifnesa like. First
one department ia visited and then an
other, but nowhere does the work of
the commutes appear to have been
thorough or complete. As soon u any
thing suspicious is discovered, the foot
is at once given out in an insinuating
way which promises “something sensa
tional” by some member of the com
mittee. And ao the publio fa kept con
tinually on the tiptoe of expeotancy.
But what hu the oommittee discovered
that is really sensational? So far the
aenaationa are all like the era of pros
perity promised by the McKIhley ad
ministration-future delivery.
The truth of the matter is, the Blslock
oommittee has been talking too much
on the outside from the day it first met
to begin its work.. One member of the
committee hu even felt called upon to
write cards for the newspapers, airing
hia views and preferring charges against
the head of one of the departments.
And this in advance of a complete or
final investigation of that department
by the committee. It will be time
enough for the oommittee to talk when
ita report is submitted to the legisla
ture, and if the members would get
down to business and talk leu they
might aooomplish more, and not be all
the summer about it.—Albany Herald.

MARRIAGE LAWS OF PERU.
Letter Prom AMi.ti.nt Secretary Day to
MiitUlei-4 Uiiiativo Thereto*
Chicago, July 12.—At a special ses
sion of the Chicago Methodist minis
ters’ meeting Rev. John Lee, chairman
of the committee on religions liberty foi
protestant3 in South America, read the
following letter, which was received in
reply to a communication addressed to
President McKinley, protesting against
the discrimination against protestauti
in various partions of the South Ameri
can republics:
Department of State,
Washington, June 21, lt»97.
The president has referred to this de
partment your letter of the tenth inst.,
relative to the marriage laws of Peru,
Bolivar and Ecuador. O;. Oct. 26, last,
our minister at Lima reported that the
Peruvian bill containing the registration
of marriages and foreigners failed for lack
of agreement between the two houses.
The senate passed a bill satisfactory to the
foreign element and the house of deputies
amended by providing for civil marriages,
The session came to an end before an
agreement could be reached.
On March 31, last, the' department ad
vised our legation at Lima of its hope
that Peru would adopt a marriage law
more consonant with the general practice
of foreign nations and expressed its con
cern lest the civil rights of American citi
zens in. that quarter might be impaired
through the deficiency of the existing law.
It was further stnted that this govern
ment would be glad to learn that the sub
ject would be revived at the next session
of congress and satisfactorily disposed of.
Copy of your letter will be forwarded to
onr legation in connection with the in
struction referred to.
Kespccfully yours,
William R. Dat,
Assitant Secretary.

Jasp.tr, Ga., July 13.—Already poll
tics in this, the. Ninth congressional
district, is beginning to warm up. Hon.
F.C. Tate, our present congressman
finds himself confronted by the candi
dscy of Hon. Howard Thompson, of
Gainesville. The financial question
promises fair to bs the issue. Mr.
Thompson, it Is understood, will con
tend for a continuation of a sound cur
rency, while Mr. Tate will continue* to
advooste free silver at 16 to 1. The
Morgantown News was out last week
in a two-column editorial denouncing
Tate and, turging the candidacy
Thompson. Just what the outcome of
the campaign will be is hard to foretell
bpt it is fair to suppose that a general
“wool polling” will result.
The Republican “pie banters” are
hot about the way the offioes have been
dealt ont by Col. Bock and his ool
leagues, and Chairman Day of the Re
publican executive committee of this

grees in the lest election. The post

Memphis, July 13.—The funeral train
bearing the remains of Tennessee’s dis
tinguished senator, Hon. Isham G. Har
ris, arrived in the city at 7:30 a. m.
The party whioh accompanied the re
mains from Washington is composed of
James, Edward and Charles Harris, the
late senator’s sons; Mrs. Edward Har
ris, a daughter- in- law; Edward Harris,
a grandson, and Miss "Mary O. Harris,

of the family were Colonel H. W. Wall
of McKenzie, Tenn., the late senator’s
private secretary; Judge A. M. Lam-
breth, in charge of the decorations; Ed
ward Ray and Zachariah Taylor of

Asheville, N. O., July 13.—The At
lanta street railroad case, growing ont
of the attempt of the city of Atlanta to
compel the Consolidated company to
give transfers over its lines, is being
heard in the United States courtroom
hero by Judge William T. Newman.
Argument was begun by Judge Ander
son on behalf of the city and it is ex
pected that the close of the hearing will
not be reached before Wednesday.
In this case City Attorney Anderson,
Assistant City Attorney Pendleton and
Alex King of their associate counsel.
King & Spalding, appear in behalf of
Atlanta. On the side of the Consoli
dated are Brandon & Arkwright, N. J.
& T. A. Hammond, aud Carroll Payne
of Payne & Tye.
Mayor Charles A. Collier is an inter-
terested listener to the proceedings.
If the city’s demurrer is sustained
the transfer law will go into effect im
mediately. If thi c is not done, the case
will go to a hearing on its merits. In
this event Judge Newman will appoint
a special master whose duty will be to
investigate thoroughly iuto the condi
tion of the Consolidated and make a re
port as to the reasonableness of the
city’s demand for transfers.

Hampton, S. O./ July 13.—The cam

out of the 1.500 white voters. Senator
McLanrin reintroduced the hand pri
mary, started by Senator Tillman. Mo-
Lanrin wanted to know how many
thought his tariff policy right About
half the audience raised their hands
and applauded. Later on ex- Governor
Evans called for a raising of hands of
all who raised short staple cotton and
only a few raised their hands, mnch to
the amazement of all.
Senator MoLanriu said that Egyptian
ootton had almost driven ont Pee Dee
and Allan oottons. He favored the Lat
imer dispensary bill because he thought
the state and not the nation shonld dis
pose of the liquor question for South
Carolina. Ex-Governor Evans said if
Senator McLauriu’s tariff views pre
vailed it would impose a 40 per cent tax
on the farmers who used manufactured
goods.
Candidate Mayfield opposed the state
dispensary and denied emphatically
that he was in any political deal or com
bination, as he was the very first to an
nounce liis senatorial candidacy.
Ex-Seuator Irby denounced all alleged
political plots to el;ct McLanrin and
said that the newspapers were not giv
ing the people what they wanted. He
said General Butler told him that Mo-
Laurin had said that Tillman told him
(McLanrin) that he was going to break
his political neck. This, Irby says, was
the beginning of the present estrange
ment between himself and Tillman,
since healed.
Senator McLanrin said he had no re
collection of the matter.

many high state officials, including
Treasurer Craig, Comptroller Harris,
Secretary of State W. S. Morgan, Ad
jutant General Sykes, Hon. John
Thompson, speaker of the senate, and
Morgan Fitzpatrick, speaker of the
house.
The train arrived at the Nashville,
Chattanooga and St Louis depot on
Main street and immediately thereafter
the local committees took charge of the
remains. Carriages were in waiting
for the members of the. fnueral party
and a magnificent hearse, heavily draped
in '.Jack, received the casket holding
the remains of the dead senator. The
confederate veterans, Captain Carnes
commanding, in fall uniform, acted as
an escort of honor.
The line of march was quickly formed
and the cortege started for the First
Methodist church, at the corner of Pop
lar and Second streets, in the following
order: Mounted police, the confederate
veterans, pallbearers, the bier, family
of the deceased, congressional delega
tion, Governor Taylor and staff, various
local committees. *
Although the hoar was early, hun
dreds of citizens viewed the solemn
march to the church, where the re
mains were to lie in state throughout
the morning. Arriving at the church,
the oasket was placed in a large open
area, w*here thousands of citizens, many
of whom were lifelong friends of the
dead statesman, viewed the remains.
The large room had been appropri
ately draped by the ladies of Memphis
and the soenes within the church were
most impressive. /Tears bedimmed the
eyes of many visitors as they looked
npon the dead face of their fellow-
towsman, and many rare floral tributes
were dropped about the casket by old
friends.
The interment took place at Elmwood
oemetery late in the afternoon.

Talk of Burning the Brute Who Aasaulted
Ex-State Senator Campbell’* Daughter.
McDonough, Ga., July 13.—The sher
iffs of four counties and big posses are
still pursuing Oscar Smith, the negro
who assaulted the 6- year- old daughter
of former State Senator Samuel Uamp-
bell and then fled to a swamp.
Smith has been pursued into Henry
county. The mob is growing larger
every hour. Conservative estimates
now place its number at 2,000.
If the sheriffs capture Smith they may
have to fight the mob. Most of the
pursuers intend to see him hanged to
the tree nearest the plaoe where he is
captured, but there is some talk of press
ing the stake into service.

HON. J. L. POWER, •
MISSISSIPPI’S SECRETARY OF STATS. 1
he told me I bad cancer, I became
alarmed, and hastened to New Orlea&j
for treatment.
“I went to the leading hospital ia
that city, where I received the best
medical attention, but the cancer con-
tinned to grow worse until the physi
cians finally said that I would have to
have an operation performed, as that
y hope for me. This I re
fused to submit to, as I knew cancer was
a blood disease, and my common sense
told me that it was folly to expect aa
operation to enre a blood disease.
“Knowing S. S. S. to be a good blood
remedy I decided to try it, and the first
bottle produced an improvement. Icon-
tinned the medicine, and in four months
the last little scab dropped 98. Ten
years have elapsed, and not a sign oi
the disease has returned.”
Hon. J. L. Power, secretary of state
of Mississippi, says: "I regard the cure
of Mr. Wifi liams as remarkable, and it
demonstrates that S. S. S. is a wonder
ful blood remedy. I saw him recently,
and only a small scar marks the place
where the dreadful disease held forth."
3Gfae many caustic plasters which are
applied to remove cancers are more pain
ful than death, and the danger of a sur
gical operation is as great as the disease
Itself. No caustic plaster or surgical
operation can cure cancer, because it is
a blood disease; the destructive cancer
cells are in the blood, and cannot be
entoutor removed by local treatment
As the disease must be forced from the
blood, it is only reasonable to rely npon
areal blood remedy for a cure, onewhich
goes direct to the cause of the trouble
and removes it. A mere tonic cannot
core any blood disease.
S. S. S. (Swift’s Specific) is the only
known cure for cancer and other obsti
nate and deep-seated blood diseases such
as Scrofula, Eczema, Catarrh, Rheuma
tism and Contagious Blood Poison. Itu

and Is the only blood remedy guaran
teed to contain not a particle of mercury,
potash or other mineral, which means
so mnch to all who know the disastrous
effects of these drugs. 4
