If the Htrike on the great western rail
roads continues and develops, the over
land stage routes will have to be revived.
The good town ot Roston will proba
blv now stick to its “culchaw” und let
prize fighters alone. Who would have
dreamed a few weeks ago that the papers
of that city would now be talking in
terms of derision of the great and only
John L. Sullivan?
Cedartown is lo have anew paper,
and it is to be edited by Mr. Montgom
ery M. Folsom, late of Macon. The new
venture is gotten up by a stock company
composed of the leading citizens of the
town, and will be backed by a capital of
$3,500.
The editor of an exchange saysfrankly
that he “does not understand the tariff
problem.” If all the editors of the coun
try should take a notion to be equally
candid about the matter, the reading
public would probably be treated to a
first-class surprise in the way oi acknowl
edged bewilderment.
The damage done to New York from
the late blizzard will reach twenty mil
lions of dollars. This shows how much
more severe a blizzard is in the East
than in the West. The “Rowdy West”
must look to her laurels, and pay espe
cial attention to her crop of blizzards if
she doesn’t wish to take a back seat.
The citizens of Newnan have a true
idea of the way a town should be built
up. They organized a strong company
for the purpose of erecting a cotton fac
tory the other day. A correspondent
says of the meeting: “The meeting was
enthusiastic, and evinced a determina
tion on the part of the people of New
nan to iuvest their surplus money here
after in home enterprises instead of send
ing it away and putting it in wild-cat
speculation in Alabama, as many have
done to their sorrow.”
For the first time in many months,
there is a decrease reported in railroad
gross earnings. In the first week of
March, sixty-five roads being heard
from, there was a falling off of 19 per
cent, as compared with the correspond
ing week of 1887. This loss is trifling,
it is true, but the fact that it comes
after a long period of uninterrupted
gains makes it notable. The strike on
the “Q” line, which has interrupted busi
ness to some extent also on its connec
tions, is probably one of the causes of
the decline in aggregate earnings.
Our Congressmen, though great and
good are not, it would seem, entirely
above making little mistakes in English
now and then, and generally their mis
takes are very humorous. For example,
Hon. S. S. Cox once described a certain
pension claimant as being “thoroughly
wounded in every respect.” Mr. Carlisle
has been known to direct the members to
“pass through” the two tellers in taking
a vote, instead of between them. Mr.
Bland, of Missouri, said in a debate that
he had “returned back,” and the Hon.
Timothy Campbell was heard to declare
that Mr. Lynch, of Pennsylvania, was
“the baldest headest man in Congress.”
Professor Drapfr, of New York, has
just published a comparative statement
of winter temperatures for the past
sixty years. This shows that the coldest
winter the United States has known
since 1832 was that of ’55-6, with a
minimum average of 22.2 degrees above
zero; the next was ’56-7, with a mini
mum average of 22.4 degrees, while the
present winter stands third, with a
miuiuurn average of 22.83. This record
is for the latitude of New York city, but
it is substantially that of Yi ashjngton.
There has not been in this section any*
thing like the low temperatures of 1880-
1, when the mercury in this city went to
14 below, but the cold was steady and
greater.

The Equinoctial Gale.
The storms of last week were without
exception the most complete, destructive
and terrific that have ever been known
for this season of the year. It blocked
travel, and almost stopped communica
tion between the various sections of the
country. There have been heavier falls
of snow, heavier rain storms, worse
tempests of lmle and sleet, but taking
all in all, no storm of the past so com
pletely isolated the peopleastheonethat
swept over the country last week. It
blocked railroads, and broke up telegraph
and telephone communication.
The storm extended from the foot-hills
of the Alleghenies into Alabama and
Georgia, and swept the line of that range
eastward to the ocean and northward
into Canada. It was a genuine Dakota
and Manitoba blizzard.
A Terrible Railroad Accident.
L&st Saturday morning the first section
of the fast mail train from New Y r ork to
Jacksonville went through a trestle near
Blackshear, Ga. Eighteen people were
killed in the accident and between thirty
and forty injured. The private car of
President Wilber, of the Lehigh Valley
road, with Mr. Wilber and George Gould
ind wife and others in it was on one of
the trains. President Wilber is reported
to be seriously injured. George Gould
unhurt, and Mrs. Gould slightly injured
The damage is generally estimated at
about $75,000, but no one outside of the
officials know much about it.

Congressional timber is seasoning

will begin to fly in the very early subse

Seven hundred and fifty funeral pro
cessions wended their way to the New
York cemeteries last Monday, the result
of the late blizzard. This record is up
to the one made during the heated term
of last summer.
The candidacy oi our distinguished
fellow citizen, Col. Thomas Milner, for
the judgship. is very favorably spoken
of by the people over the circuit. He
will make a fine race, with very encour
aging prospects of “getting there.”
Another state treasurer has gone
wrong. This time Kentucky is the loser,
to the extent of several hundred thou
sand dollars. Treasurer Tate, or as he
was familiarly, but erroneously called,
'‘Honest Old Tate,” has skipped out,
most likely to that bourne from which no
ilefaulter hardly ever returns, Canada.
The republicans of the state are in high
glee, and think this defalcation will beat
the democrats this year.
The railroad men at this point arecon
siderably interested in the strike of the
engineers on the Chicago, Burlington and
Quincy and other roads, and the signs
are good that this strike will be extended
South, in fact all over the country. A
W. & A. conductor gave it as his opinion
that the strike will be general over the
entire country by the first of next month.
There is no doubt there is something in
the air among the engineers, their actions
and remarks made concerning the strike
being suspicious to say the least. The
engineers, it is said, will carry their point
with the C., B. & Q. if it takes everj* en
gineer in the country to do so. In the
mean time the real sufferers, the people,
are looking on with grave apprehension.

Salt Rheum
The agonies of those who suffer from severe
salt rheum are indescribable. The cleansing,
healing, purifying influences of Hood's Sarsa
parilla are unequalled by any other medicine.
“I take pleasure in recommending Hood's
Sarsaparilla, for it has done wonders for me.
I had salt rheum very severely, affecting me
over nearly my entire body. Only those who
have suffered from this disease in its worst
form can imagine the extent of my affliction.
I tried many medicines, but failed to receive
beneilt until I took Hood's Sarsaparilla.
Then the disease began to subside, the
Agonizing Itch and Pain
disappeared, and now I am entirely free from
the disease. My blood seems to be thor
oughly purified, and my general health is
greatly benefited.” Lyman Allen, Sexton
N. E. Church, North Chicago, 111.
** My son had salt rheum on his hands and
the calves of his legs, so bad that they would
crack open and bleed. He took Hood's Sar
saparilla and is entirely cured.” J. B. Stan
ton, Mt. Vernon, Ohio.
From 108 to 135
•
“Ivras seriously troubled with salt rheum
for three years, and receiving no benefit Horn
medical treatment I decided to try Hood’s
Sarsaparilla. lam now entirely cured of salt
rheum; my weight has increased from 108 lbs.
to 135.” Mns. Alice Smith, Stamford, Conn.
If you suffer from salt rheum, or any blood
disease, try Hood’s Sarsaparilla. It Inis cured
many others, and will cure you.
