The Cordele Sentinel. J. W. Bivins. W. A. Snow. BIVINS A? SNOW. Editors - and - Publishers. Tea MS OP SUBSCRIPTION. One Tear...... ? sis Six Months .. Three months ■ Friday, April 14, 1899. OSdal Organ if City of Cordele. Mr. A. J. Tison is authorized to solicit and collect subscriptions, advertisements and job work for The Sentinel. l’orto Rico lias 300 coffee farms. The people of McRae nre trying to get a branch line built between the G. – A. road and their city. Over fifty new subscribers is the record of the Sentinel in t he last thirty days. Bring in your dollar and join the rush. Some one said that the editor of the Hornet had sold out, and would leave town. The Hornet says, ‘ ‘that it is a lie out of the whole cloth.” Why not say, “the gentle man is mistaken.” It does not appear that much inter est is manifested by southern Geor gians in preparing an exhibit for the State fair to be held in Atlanta next October. Why can’t Dooly county carry up a display that will take first prize? The Houston Home Journal says Georgians may not find profit in shipping their corn to other states for sale, but their corn and other home-grown provender may be transformed into fat hogs and cattle for other than Georgia markets. The Hornet tells The Sentinel “good-bye!” This is too sad! We cannot say "good-bye!” Change your name, and come again, and may you be able to keep in our sight and remember the lessons you learned from the Sentinel— “It is time we were dropping politics;” “Let’s nil pull together and make Cordele the best town in Georgia.” “The man who throws cold water on the establishment of new enter prises in a community, by wagging his tongue in an illogical and pessi mistic fashion should be indicted by the grand jury as a public nui sance,” says the Hawkinsville Dis patch and News. The Hornot says, “There are hold ing office in this county now, men that have, by their actions during this municipal muddle, shown pret ty conclusively where they stahd.” It adds, “Wo make no charges now, as this is another matter and will be taken up at the proper time.” Look out, office-holders in Dooly! you must agree with the Hornet or sink into everlasting disgrace and oblivion! The American Cotton dinner says: “Shame on shame, that the south has enough raw material to supply her every want, yet she buys com paratively everything in distant markets. Goes to Boston for shoes, New- York for dress goods, Kansas City for bacon and lard and St. Louis for Hour and corn meal. Di versify your crops as much as you please, but you will never get rich as long as this state of affairs lasts.” About throe weeks ago The Senti nel dared to write a little article on “politics in Cordele,” in which we dared to favor harmony and peace. The little Hornet—usurper of all political nghts in Cordele—came flying around to investigate our rights in the premises; whereupon the Sentinel turned a little light upon the partisan spirit of the Hor net and the paper in an almost in conceavable short space of time begs pardon for referring to the Sentinel and adds that it will not refer to us any more. An occasional dose of Prickly Ash Bitters keeps the system healthy, wards off disease and maintains strength and energy. For sale by Cash Drug Store. Hornet in Polities. Hornet, the Sentinel knows you well, The truth you know not how to tell; To “partisan prejudice” you appeal; When your leaders speak, you meekly kneel. Your announcement, when you were born, Was “partisan politics”—own up the corn'. You simply announced this was your aim,— You succeeded well in “stirring up Cain.” We admire those men you represent, And for you and them no harm is meant; We simply call to mind, that all your life You’ve punched up people to political strife. You now announce against “harmony” “peace,” And that your fight will never cease. Look what you say on April the sixth: “You want no harmony in politics!” Have you written so much along this line— To change the subject, you’d lose your mind ? Did you ever think of the interests here, And for these interests do you not care ? Remember, the Chautauqua is coming along, Change from “cussin’ ’’—sing a song! Of all bad things for a town Is a newspaper “running all men down.” “Good men are on both sides,” said J udge Butt, But the Hornet continues in the same old rut The same judge said “we should be shamed,” But the Hornet stings—for Hornet it is named. Now, don’t you think it ridiculous That a paper’s aim is to stir up fuss ? To see it stop, both side® would be glad, But to ask It to stop, makes the Hornet mad. The people will follow the Sentinel’s advice, For all our people, we think, are nice; We throw our arms around them all, Arid say, “united we stand, divided we fall.” Effort Will Win. Don’t give up ; always keep try ing. Effort, effort, effort—that is life. What you actually accomplish does not matter so much as what you try to accomplish. Only a few can be great; for the great become great by the help of the many little, upon whoes shoulders they stand. This is how humanity grows. Effort, the constant effort of the many, makes greatness possible for the few and progress certain for all. Dr. Maury specialist, M.

ONLY ONE CURE '"1 FOR SCROFULA. S. S. S. Is the Only There are dozens of remedies recommended for Scrofula, some of them no doubt being able to Remedy Equal to this afford temporary remedy relief, which but completely S. 8. S. is absolutely Scrofula the only is obstinate, deep-seated cures it. one of the most Obstinate Disease. blood diseases, and >3 beyond the reach of the many so-called purifiers and tonics because some* thing more than a mere tonic is required. S. S. S. is equal to any blood trouble, and never fails to cure Scrofula, because it goes down to the seat of the disease, thus permanently eliminating every trace of the taint. The serious consequences to which Scrofula surely leads should impress upon those afflicted with it the vital im- met portance of wasting no time upon treatment which can not possibly effect a cure. In many cases where the wrong treatment has been relied upon, complicated glandular swellings have resulted, for which the doctors insist that a dangerous surgical operation is necessary. Mr. H.E. Scrofula Thompson,of Milledgeville, glands Ga., writes: “A bad case of broke out on the of my neck, which had to be lanced and caused me much suffering. I V was treated for a long while, but the physicians were un able to cure me, and my condition was as bad as when I began their treatment. Many blood remedies were used, but without effect. Some one recommended S. S. 8., and I began to improve as soon as I had taken a few bottles. Continuing and have the had remedy, I was soon cured permanently, never a sign of the disease to return.” Swift’s Cl — Specific— S. S. S. FOR THE BLOOD —is the only remedy which can promptly reach and cure obstinate, deep-seated blood diseases. By relying upon it, and not experimenting with the various so-called tonics, etc., all sufferers from blood troubles can be promptly cured, thl| ! 1 l in ^8 ar ^ 8u ^ er ‘ n £ w hioli gradually but surely undermines <Hisn'ui ti )n ely vegetable, and never fails to m Tetter, ..

Ulilted Staes Should Govern. Should the United States turn the island over to the Cubans and allow the natives to run their own govern ment? This is a question that the A1 bany Herald argues in a sensible wuy, as follows: “Although a great many of us are reluctant to admit that such is the case, it can no long er be denied that the Cuban people have succeeded in convincing the world that they are unfit to govern themselves, Their politicians are hotheaded and impetuous, fickle and full ot prejudice, their great aim m life seeming to be to line their pock ets with money grabbed from the public till. It would be criminal for the United States government to turn the island over to its own peo ple before they have learned to live without perpetual dissension and in ternal strife. And who can tell when that time will come?” Small Things Count Big. Men who would never think of al lowing a note or a large account to stand open are too frequently care-, less in regard to small accounts. After all, says a writer in one of the trade journals, wo are judged by small things, and what good is it if a man meets bis bank obligations promptly, and causes a number of people to whom he owes petty ac counts to go about talking of how hard it is to get him to pay up. Be I as particular about the 1 ittle accounts as the big ones. Do not snub a collector because he calls for a small amount when it is due. It is your fault that he has to call. Borne people resent either bes ing drawn upon or called upon for a small bill. They forget that it is the other man who has to stand the expense and trouble of collecting. Be also as prompt in collecting your own accounts as in paying others. If the losses made each year by small debts, neglected because they are small, could be. recovered there would be handsome dividends in most businesses. Sheriff's Tax Sale.

Without it there would be no bread, no meat, no water, no life, no gospel, no Jesus, no father, no mother, no brother, sister, home or heaven.” I In Egypt the custom is for Princesses to hide their beauty by covering the lower part of the face with a veil.
