The white men who courted and pretended to love the poor negro so well just after war were called scalla wags. The Populist. Convention at Valdos ta, which nominated Hagan for the Legislature, did not endorse Wilkin son for Congress. if we heat the pops this time they will never be able to get together again, and dissension among our peo ple w ill be at an end. —" 1 —~ Congressman Brantley makes his first speech of the campaign in Doug las. Brunswick and Waycross were anxious for this houor. T The populists of Ware county have quit tlio drive. They have not lipid a single meeting this year; nor will they put out a ticket this year. Judge Peril it ni of the Wayciv.-s Evening Herald is throwing guncotton into the Populo-Kepublico combina tion. Keep up the lick, Brother. It is shameful negligence in any man to send his wife, daughter or pa rent off to spend the summer, without sending her the Breeze. Ten cents a month is all it costs. We hear of prominent pops de nouncing their party leaders every' week. The office hunters in that par ly are going beyond the bounds of rea son and decency in their headlong ef fort to curry the negro vote. The campaign in Cotfee will be short but sharp. The people should thank the Democratic party for put ting off the campaign. The democrats have not named their ticket yet, but the pops have been trying to tqMju the campaign for two months. Four white populists are holding post-off ees under the present republi can administration in this county. Now, if they arc such great friends to the negroes why didn’t they let the negro lepublicans have these offices. It is plain that the pops are fooling the negro and taking all the good things for themselves, and are not wil ling for Mr. Nigger to have anything They have to rued out to he a hand of office see kers. GOING TO jj FAST. The Breeze, like :ull patriotic Ameri can newspapers should do, has hurrah ed and cavorted, the editor lias stood on his head and fanned his frantic frame with his owi) sh—or—coat tail, all because of our great victory over the Spaniards; but now that we have have had time to cool of!'a bit and “allow reason to regain its sway,” as Judge Joel Sweat, would say, we have concluded that Uncle Sam has played the mischief. W 1 ml have wc been licking Spain fur, anyhow? And after licking her, what business did we have taking all her possessions? Besides, what use have we got for them? In annexing new territory and as suming protectorates over foreigners and otherwise meddling with the pos sessions of other nations we are depart ing from the teachings of our fore fathers and the founders of our gov ernment. Old ideas are forsaken, and wc are treading the path of aggressive war, of foreign conquest and of alien territorial aggrandizement. Wc should call a halt and tie Uncle Sam’s star-bespangled coat tail in a hard knot around tiie base of Wash ington monument. MIDRLK-OF-1 IIE-I*URDLERB. O, yes; of course the pops of Coffee are strict (?) middle-of-the-roaders. Middle-of-tlie-puddlers would be a bet ter name for them. They have departed from tlio teach ings of Torn Watson and are now actually fusing with the Republicans! This act is the last dying kick of the Populist party. The party will die because the honest, conscientious vot ers will not follow the politicians into the Republican party. They are los ing good white men from their ranks every day in this county. There were some honest, well-mean ing populists, lmt they will never be republicans i A RKI'URLICfIN ORGAN. In the last issue of the great Doug las Leader, a paper published at Doug las, in Coffee county, and heretofore supposed to be a populist organ, we find the following editorial paragraph : “Wo are for our republican nominee first, last and all the time. ’Rail for J. M. Wilkinson!” Wo thought the Leader was a popu list paper, but the above capping shows we were in error. Anyway, it is consoling to know at last to what party it belongs. In the meantime, tlio Breeze will snow under all its weak efforts at boost ing into office the “gentlemen from Valdosta." —Ocilla Dispatch. GltEKll I <>lt OFFICE. ‘‘Anything to beat the Democrats,” is apparently the principle of the Pop ulists in the Eleventh district. The corner stone of the l’opulist party at the time of its formation was alleged to be equal rights. Now, however, the party leaders are ready ami will ing to swallow protectionism, or any thing else, for the sake of defeating the Democracy, The Eleventh dis trict Populists, who have eudotsed the Republican candidate lor Congress, arc fully conscious of the fact that they have aliigned themselves against the host interests of the district, but the spirit of revenge .it so strong with in (hem that they are willing that the district should be sacrificed. We do not believe that the Populist leaders o' the Eleventh will be able to deliver the votes of many white men to the Republicau candidate.—Savan nah News, OASTOniA. £ nrt the. >?TI)8 Kind Yoa HIW t;3)S Bought W*\\ Jpapcr.

While making an attempt to clear away some shavings from a planer he shoved his hand against the blade with the above result. There are a few people in this sinful world who do not regard, as binding, any thing short of ‘black and white.’ And now they say that a certain ‘Perfessor’ had collected too much spondulix for teaching school.

The Packers at tlio Battle of Santiago de Cuba were ail Heroes. Their Hero ic Efforts in Getting Ammunition and Rations to the Front Saved the Day. P. E. Butler, of pack-train No. 3, writing from Santiago, De Cuba, on July 23rd, says: “We all had diar rhoea' in more or less violent form, and when we landed we had no time to see a doctor, for it was a case of rush and rush night and day to keep the troops supplied with ammunition and rations but thunks to Chamberlain’s Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy, we were able to keep at work and keep our health ; in fact, I sincerely believe that at one critical time this medicine was the indirect saviour of our army, for if the packers had been unable to work there would have been no way of getting supplies to the frout. There were no roads that a wagon train could use. My comrade aud myself had the good fortune to lay in a supply of this medicine for our pack train before we left Tampa, and 1 know in four cases it absolutely saved life.” The above letter was written to the manufacturers of this medicine, the Chamberlain Medicine Cos., Des Moin es, |owa.
