THURSDAY 'FEBRUARY 8, 1900.
Kentucky is still in a turmoil.
The Boers hare licked the English
again.
It is to be hoped that politics will get
on a little higher plain this year in
Oeorgia than it has been for several
years past. Men ought to be manly
enough to respect men who differ with
them politically and not stoop to things
that are crooked, little and wrong to
hold their supremacy. Men can be
honorable and honest in politics if they
want to.
Col. Peek In Winder.
Col. Peek, one of the leading and able
reformers of Georgia, and one of the
leaders of our great movement who has
never faltered, Dover become weary or
tired in working for it 1 growth and ul
timate triumph, spent Sunday and
Monday in our city visiting his daught
er, Mrs. M. D. Irwin. We had the
pleasure of his company fo- an hour or
moro Monday in our sanctum which we
greatly enjoyed. He is one of tho meu,
whom to meet, makes you feel better
and causes you to feel more determined
to work on and battle for the great re
forms that re, d’ar to to the hearts of
all true populists. He believes in stand
ing by your conscientious principles
and eontinui jg to fight for their suc
cess Co’ Peek alligned himself with
the populist party when it was first or
ganized, in fact, was one of its organiz
ers, and no man in Georgia has done
more in its behalf than he. He is a
man of strong personalty indominable
energy and deternrnation and puts his
whole soul into a cause he feels to be
just and right. Col. Peek is very hope
ful as to the future of our party and
says we will make things lively in Geor
gia as well as other states this year.
The conditions for Peoples party
growth are just as good as they were in
the Spring of ’96—better in fact for
there has been a great awakening in
the cities as to the desirability of the
adoption of the principles set forth in
the Omaha platform. All that is lack
ing now is enthusiasm among the rank
and file.—Missouri World.

The young man can see no hope in
the future, in the business world for
the door of opportunity has been closed
to him by the trust; then why should
doclose his eyes to the great battle now
going on between the foroes of capital
ism on the one side and l&boi in its va
rious forms on the other. The stako to
him is transoendent, yet in a vast ma
jority of oases we find Lim intensely
ignorant on economic questions, blindly
following the blind who were his pro
genitors: Awake, Oh young man, bes
tir yourself if you would be saved from
grinding slavery.—Jeffersonian.
The people begin to see the necessity
for a revolution in our industiial sys
tem. They are acknowledging the
truth of state socialism they begin to
see that the capita’istic system has been
with us long enough, aud must be su
perceded by a saner one. They begiu
to see that it is not necessary for flesh
and blood to be sacrificed upon the alter
of human greed. The competitive sys
tem stands indicted before the bar of
justice, because of its oppression and
injustice. At no far bistant day the
people will render a verdict of “guilty l”
The voice of the people shall be heard
in clarion tones. When it sounds let
in jus tic and oppression tremble.—Ex.

Farmers are rustling things, making
ready to plant the largest crop of cotton
ever known in this section. In spite of
all that has been said and published
urging the farmers to reduoe their cot.
ton acreage, it seems it has done little
or no good. Every one seems to want
the other fellow to grow less cotton, but
is not willing to take his; own advice.
We dont believe in the over production
theory, as strongly as some do, but there
is a limit to all things. There is no
good to come to the farmer who raises
cheap cotton to buy farm supplies.
We have been oareful to notioe, for
the pa t-few years, so we wou’d make
no mistake, and onr observation has
been that those whe make their farm
selfsnstaining are the only ones who
are free from debt and arc meeting with
any success. But men are queer mor
tals. The good book says: “every man’s
way is right in his own eye,” and may
he this is the reason that many of our
acts are hard to understand.
It is well that all men do not agree.
Difference of opinion has often led to
noble inventions. Then again, it would
rob many of their only job—viz, to find
fault So its best for all things to move
on in discord, concord would produce
me notony, and monotony is repulsive
to human sensibelity.
The war in South Africa is still going
on. The brave Boers seem to;be able to
take care of themselves. Uncle Sam is
sending large packages of sentiment,
congratulation and hurrah, to these no
ble braves—but it takes something more
real than sympathy to aid to advau
tage in such struggles. The South
African gold fields look as inviting to
the English, as the rich valleys and
mine3 of the Phillipinea do to tho Unit,
ed States. Uncle Sam is doing for the
Phillipiuoes exactly what the English
are trying to do for the Boers. Oh,
how terrible war is. May war among
us rever be again. The effects of (he
war between the states is seen and felt
on all sides till now. Men are restless
in their nature, nothing that God crea
ted has a disposition of perfect repose-
This restlessness, when directed in the
right way, leads to propress and pros
perity, but when it is alowed to run in
the wrong direction, death and distruc
ion follows. J.li. Moore.

G. W. DeLaPerriere.
I believe in labor; I believe in its
humanizing and regenerating power.
ludeed, I believe that a man’s craft
furnishes the chief basis of his redemp
tion. While a man is making a house,
he is helping to make himself. While
he chisels the block of marbel, he is in
visibly shaping his own soul. And it
does not matter much what a man does
—whether he builds a poem or hoes a
field of oorn. The thing of chief impor
tance is tna spirit in which he doe; his
work. It must be done thoroughly and
and in the spirit of loving service.
Work of this order is a perpetual prayer.
Work of this sort is sacred, however
lowly—sacred thongh it be the sweep
ing of a gutter or the carrying of a hod.
The spirit of use, of loving service,
sends a gleam of the ideal into every
labor. And man needs the ideal more
even than he needs bread. The ideal is
the bread of the soul.
But while all true work is beautifnl
and holy, it is also a fact that exoe3ses
are evils—a faot that overwork and un
derpaid work tend to break down in
stead of building up. Work is good for
a child, but I can put such heavy bur
dens upon him as to deform nis body
and stunt his mind.
Mi 1 let’s picture is more terrible to me
than anything in Dante. It is just as
hopeless, and its scene is more real,
more human. I saw in it the slow, sure,
awful degradation of man througn end
less, hopeless and joyless labor. This
man’s battle with the world has been
too hard, too brutal. His battle has not
been confined to his owu life: it extends
backward in grim and and shadowy
outline through his long train of pnees
try. This man is not going upward, in
step with the divine music of the world
Tho motion of his life is arrested, if it i9
not in reality reversed He is degraded
below the roving savage, who has a step
of dignity, a tongue of eloquence.—Ed
ward Markham in Saturday Evening
Post.

Yea, August Flower still has the
largest sale of any medicine ia the civ
ilized world, Yo -• mothers’ and grand
mothers’ uevr tbon bt of using any
thing else for Indigestion or Bilionsness.
Doctors were scarce, and they seldom
heard of Appendi !tr - , Nervous Prostra
tion or Heart failure, etc. They used
August Flower to clean out the system
and stop fermentation of undigested
food, regulate the action of the liver,
stimulate the nervous and organic ac
tion of the system, and that is all they
took when feeling dull and bd wth
headaches aDd other aches. You only
need a few doses of Green’s August

The most pleasing bit of news lately
is that Mr. Rockfeller has embarked in
iu the banking business, applying the
Standard Oil methods to finance. No
methods are better. There are several
thousand bankers in the country who
will learn what this means before many
years. One Boston bank has felt it. If
these little fellows think they are going
to get the cream or even the skimmed
milk ont of the banking business, they
are mistaken. That is easier, far easier,
than the oil business to monopolize.
What they have will be gradually
scooped by the Rockfeller interests, and
the owners will be marely clerks to his
imperial finance. The country bankers
are being used as cats’ paws to control
the public, and they will get taken in
by the very system they are helping to
erect on the nations. There are chick
ens that come home to roost. What
they are bo anxious to do to others will
be done to them.—Appeal to Reason*

This certifies that after l had been
aftlioted for ten years, I took treatment
from Dr. Banks for forty-five days and
desire to say that I was wonderfully
mproved and am sure that E;. Banks’
short treatment helped me more than
any treatment I took during the 10 years.
I was afflicted with great nervousness,
kidney troubles, indigestion, sleepless
ness etc.
My husband and I most heartily re
commend Dr. Banks to all our friends.
