Dewey and Wheeler would make a strong presidential ticket. The boys say Col. Candler Mowed tiic wrong end of the silver horn. The Brunswick Times is w broad ns it. in long, and as good ns Brum, wick deserves. The gratshoppers have taken pi. session of the corn fields of Kansas, and are leaving a barren waste behind. September 28lh will be Georgia day at the Omaha exposition. A party of Georgia editors is being made up to go on dial occasion. 11 we beat the pops this time they will never lie able to get together again, and dissension among our peo ple will be at an end. Hon, Jno. C. MeDonal lias been re elected Chairman of Eleventh District Executive Committee. A better se lection could not have been made. Msj. M C. Butler, 'of (South Caro lina, heads the Cuban military com mission, and Gen. W. W. Gordon, of Savannah, is a member of the l’orto llicnn cammission, Mo, hear of prominent pops de nouncing their party leaders every week. The office hunters in that par ty are going beyond the bounds of rea son and dc’oney in their headlong ef fort to carry the negro vote. The Breeze lias as great respect for the better element of the colored citi zens, as any populist in Collee county can possibly have, and we hate to see the pops making tools of them and getting their votes on false promises. Reports front over the state show that the decent Populists are growing suspicious of tho scoundrelly leaders who are trying to swap their votes with Republicans. An honest Popu list can not vote a Republican ticket. Brunswick Advertiser. The democrats are willing for the negroes to put out a republican ticket. The pops want the negroes to endorse their ticket. And yet the pops say the democrats are meddling with the ne groes. In the name of “Jehovah and the Continental Congress" who is do ing the meddling? Il - tho general custom to call col lege classes by the last two figures of the year in which they graduate. For instance the class this year was the class of MS. It is already a problem as to what the class of 1900 shall be called. Will it be '‘naughty naught,” or “oughty ought Tho Douglas Leader has become a travesty upon journalism. It is al most as bad as the Dupont Guido once was—patent outside and a sorry mix ture of Populism and Republicanism on tlie inside. The Leader evidently needs a big dose of worm medicine.— W.iycross Herald. Mark Twain is the next famous man to be "anecdotalized” by the Ladies’ Home Journal, and bis closest friends have contributed twenty tun nv stories alsiut the humorist for the article. The stories will show that all the good things about Mark Twain ha\t it been told. Several in.li vens “snapshot” pictures of Mark i have . i is. been loa.u ; by his trie litis I '—all print.vet for the lirst time. I BLANCO, TIIH BLUFFKIt. Captain General Blanco is not so expert a butcher as Wcylcr but be is an equally accomplished liar and he keeps his type-writer in just as good ruuning order. He has issued a pro clamation announcing that owning to the intervention of foreign powers .Spoilt had been Mreed to i.Lc disgrace ful issue of suing for peace and giving up Cuba, as she could not tight all the powers combined. This is calcu lated to lire the Coltiberiau heart with a propci sense of Spanish import ance. Honor ia saved. It requires a lot of saving but it has been done. Blanco also appears 'o he a good Christian. He suggests that the Cu lm be forgiven and he no longer re gal ad as enemies. That is very nice of lijj.i especially now that the Cu bans are likely to be on top. it is eminently proper to forgive a man who has , u down, ft may have the I ■ .... it mum!.-; a great deal more dignified. TUG i’ASHING OJ I’OI’L'JjISM. The purpose of leading Populists and reformers in the Eleventh district is displaying itself. The Douglas Leader, probably the organ of the dis trict, (?) lias two very suggestive para graphs in its last issue. It says : “The Old Eleventh speaks out, in the nom ination of Hon. J. M. Wilkinson, which makes us feel higher, larger round.” It also notified Col. Brantley that his “old party is dead,” and that McKinley will officiate at the funeral obsequies in 1900.” There seems to be a square deal of the leaders all along the line It is perhaps just as well that the honest voter should know that their leaders arc ready to dojiny thing to get office; but no decent, honest, conscientious Populist will trail himself into the Republican party as a moans of getting relief from bad legislation.—Brunswick Advertiser. You very aptly picture the condi tions as they exist in Coffee county. The politicians of the Populist per suasion rue doing everything in their power to keep the parly together. Nationally the party is dead—killed by its own leaders while they were fighting among themselves, but Kx ally they hope to get elected to a tew more offices before the thing finally peters out. The office-seekers are getting des perate, and are allowing the more rea ped able white people to quit their party rather than lose the negro vote. This is proven every week by the great number of populists who are rejoining tho democratic party. They say they cannot follow thoir populist leaders into the Republican party. Be sure and register!

About one month ago my child which is fifteen months old, had an attack of diarrhoea accompanied by vomiting. 1 gave it such remedies as usually given in such cases, but as nothing gave relief, we sent for a phy sician and u was under his care for a week. At this time the child had been sick for about ten days and was having about twenty-live operations of the bowels every twelve hours, and we were convinced that unless it soon obtained relief it would not live. Chamberlain’s Colic, Cholera and Diar rhoea Remedy was recommended, and 1 decided to try it. I soon noticed a a change for the better; by its contin ued use a complete cure was brought about and it is now perfectly healthy. —C L Boggs, Slumptown, Gilmer Cos. \V Ya For sale by \V F. S'bbett.
