Under Democratic administration Georgia pays $223,000 this year for negro education. '■ 1 Bob Dickerson is a good campaigner, and he will lay Ecord in the shade to the tune of one thousand majority. Uncle Ligr Tanner, the populist nominee for representative, Concedes that two of the democratic candidates will he elected. In spite ol all the Breeze says about Oapt. Ban Milikin's political move ments the editor wants it understood that he is our personal friend. Joe W. Bennett of Brunswick will he elected Judge of the Brunswick circuit without opposition. Mr. Ben nett is a line young man, an able lawyer and will make a good judge. The editor of the Douglas Leader, the negro populist fusion organ of Coffee, claims that lie never went to school but eleven days. The columns of his paper indicate that he made poor use of the time.—Brunswick Ad vertiser. V —————— Over in tire good old democratic county of Ware the negroes have put out a full republican county ticket, and tkev say if the white pops do not vote for their ticket they will get even by scratching Ecord, the populist nominee for Senator. If you do not believe that populism and republicanism is running together in this district just go to the court house in Douglas to-day aud hear Capt. Ben Milikin and Col. .1. M. VVilkinst n make their speeches. See how they slobber over each other. Just after peace was declared Spain announced that she has anew explo sive called dsza, with which it i* hoped to accomplish wonders. It is pro jected in the form of a rocket and is guaranteef to sink anything from a towboat to nu island. An Ameri can gunner might use it with effect — a Spaniard, never! I DEMOCRATIC VICTORY. A close and careful canvass of the political situation, in Coffee county warrants the conclusion that the dem ocrats will win in the county election. The populist majority in the last election was made up of the illegal negro vote. The democrats were careless and did not purge the registration lists two years ago, but this time no pains will he spared to make the registration come up to the • full requirements of the law. The Breeze believes that the candi dacy of Henry Girtman was largely instrumental in bringing out the full registration in the Pickren district. This is the best democratic district in the county, and the democrats of the entire county are overjoyed at the prospects of a big majority from that precinct. The Br-' /.e congratulates the demo crats of this district for their good worn, it is the banner district of the county, and if we can hold the pops down in the balance of the county PicKren district will win the election for us. KKPUUIiICAN MIH-ItUMd. There is no particular need of for getting that in 1804 Gen. Phil Sheri dan recommended to the war depart ment that Gen. Russell A. Alger he dishonorably discharged from the ser vice. Alger was as complete a failure as a soldier as he has proven himself to be as secretary of war. He would never have come to the front in politics or any other line, after his disastrous rout at the Minneapolis convention as a candidate for the presidential nomination by bis party, had it not been for the fact that when McKinley lost what money he had, also his wife’s fortune and $119,000 additional in an Ohio scheme, Alger contributed $20,- 000 of the money that put McKinley on his feet again. Putting it plainly, Alge virtually bought the position of secretary of war, the duties which he has conducted most miserably and made an utter failure of. Other Re publican statesman are in the same boat with Alger, so many of them that they feel that all of them must stand together or they will break to pieces like a chain made of fog. AN KXIM, 1 NATION. The statement in the Leader of this week that the Breeze is being sup ported by private contributions is a LIE out of the whole cloth. Out hooks will show that we make enough to pay our expenses, and instead of our democratic friends contributing anything to the support of the paper there arc scores of them indebted to us for advertising and job printing. The statofnent that the editor of the Breeze docs not pay his postage is another LIE Finley, the postmaster, who also writes the clumsy and un couth rot for the Leader lias been let ting our postage bill stand until it amounted to enough to offset an ac count we have been carrying against him for two years. Wo had promised not to notice the Leader again, and we only notice it tlris time to brand its editor as a liar. Appling is Ben Milikin's home county, but it is said that he had a .powerful hard time triyirig to make the negro convention at Baxley in dorse the populist county ticket. The negroes were nearly evenly divided and they will stay so until election day The Breeze has been very charitable towards Mr. Ecord, for, as every while pop in Coffee county knows, we could have said a whole lot about the charge against Mr. Ecord that he killed a ne gro in Irwin county a few years ago. But we do not care to injure the char acter of our paper by indulging in such political tricks. Wall flaper.

Sick or Well, a Hush Sight and Day. The Packers at the Battle of Santiago do Cuba were all 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 loss violent form, and when we landed we had no time to sec a doctor, for it was a case of rush and rush night and day to keep the troops supplied with ammunition and rations but thanks 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 front. There were no roads that a wagon train could use. My comrade and myself had the good fortune to lay in a supply of this medicine for our pack train before we left Tampa, aud I 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, lowa.
