(.Chicago Tribune.) For leavening power, keeping qual ities, purity and general excelleucy the World’s fair jury decided that Dr. Price’s Cream Baking Powder has no equal. On each of its claims it was awarded a first prize or a diploma. All the baaing powders entered for prizes were subject to a most exhaust live examination, and the jury was the best equipped to make the decis ion of any ever gotten together. Their verdict was supported by the te-ti rnony of Dr. 11. W. Wiley, chief chemist of the United States depart* merit of Agriculture at Washington. Dr. Wiley is an expert in tood pro d nets and the highest authority on such matters in America. This ver dict settles a long debated question as *o which among the many baking powders arc the best.

We congratulate the party in the fact that in the event of the nomination of either Evans or Atkinson, the whola party can support him freely, for either geutleman would make a good governor. In debate Mr. Evans is no match for “W. Y,” and yesterday it was a victory for Atkinson beyond a doubt. When the speaking was finished Atkinson was car ried through the streets on the should ers of his enthusiastic friends, to the News building followed by an enormous crowd. WhenW. Y. asked the General what he wanted to do with the Soldiers.’ Home? He replied that he would sell it, W. Y. read from the Atlanta Journal an interview with the General two years ago that didn’t say so then. Mr. Atkinson then exclaimed: ‘Tam the only man who ever run for governor in this state, who could truthfully claim that he had ever converted a preacher.” The Giiffiu crowd a* the end of of the debate were three to one for Atkinson. SUNDAY SCHOOL ASSOCIATION The quarterly session of the Butts County Sunday School association will be held at Wortliville Friday, March the 80th.
