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. Items Picked Up By The Way. 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. Mrs. J. K. Miller, Newton Hamilton, Pa., writei, “I think DeWitt’s Witch Hazel Salve the grandest salve made.” It cures piles and heals every thiDg. All fraudulent imitations are worthless. 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.

Winder, Ga., 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* “After doctors failed to cure me of pnenmonia I used One Minute Congh Cure and three bottles of it enred me. It is also the best remedy on earth for whooping congh. It cared my grand children of the worst oases,” writes Jno. Berry, Logan ton, Pa. It is iho only harmless remedy that gives imme diate results.

Harbins, Gwinnett County, Ga. 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. Mrs. j. c. Lowry. Jan. 35, 1900.
