The County Should Provide, On Saturday last at The Dooly County Teachers Monthly Institute, a motion was put and carried that a representative be selected to present to the next grand jury the necessity of local taxation in the county for the maintenance of the public schools for at least nine months in the year. Upon nomination Rev. J. M. Kelly of Vienna was elected to represent the public interest, and Prof. R. J. Prentiss of Cordele, for the Teachers Association. In consideration of the above, we beg leave to offer a few remarks: The great resource of the public schools is, and must continue to be, some form or forms of public taxation. Towns and cities seeing the necessity of this tax, as well as the benefits accruing therefrom, have pretty gen erally adopted it. and consequently the country places are suffering to day. The basis of school taxation, or the ultimate sources of school supply, is an important subject, Whether more money can lie had for the schools often depends upon the man ner in which it is proposed to levy the tax. If the discipline of a good school is adapted to prevent crime, the length of the course of study is even more important to this need. The wealth of the county or state is measured by the aggregate prod uct of the raw materials plus these same raw raateria's converted into manufactured goods. Counties and states as well as nations become rich in proportion as they multiply man ufactories. Mere products of raw material can never make the county of Dooly rich. It requires intelligent educated labor to do this; hence the necessity for Dooly’s advance. We challenge dispute on the fol lowing facts: 1st, Those states in the Union have the greatest prosperity that have the lowest percentage of illiteracy. 2d, Those states that produce the greatest amount of wealth annually, by converting raw material into man : ufactured products, are those states that have the fines‘ system of public schools. 3d, Crime decreases among the na tive population just in proportion as intelligence spreads among the labor mg classes. These statements being true, as A SMALL SPOT m MOST VIOLENT CASES HAVE JpSSrSX, shows disposition to heal under ordin no ADDCIDCn IT CIDCT 1C arv treatment. No one can tell how soon these MTUmCU III rind I Hu will develop into Cancer of the worst type. So many people die from Cancer simply be uppp PIMPI PC °* use they do not know just what the disease is; mtnt rimrLCOi they naturally turn themselves over to the doctors, ana are forced to submit to a cruel and dangerous operation—the only treatment which the doctors know for Cancer. The disease promptly returns, however, and is even more violent and destructive than before. Cancer is a deadly poison have in the blood, and an operation, The plaster, or other external treatment can no effect whatever upon it. cure must come from within—the last vestige of poison must be eradicated. Mr. Wm. Walpole, of Walshtown, S. D., says: “A little blotch about the size of a pea came under roy left eye. gradually growing larger, from which shooting alarmed pains me at and intervals consulted ran in good all directions. doctor, who I became pronounced greatly it Cancer, a and advised that it be cut out, but this I could not con sent to.

A surgical the blood operation does not reach the blood—the real seat of the disease—because can not be cut away. Insist upon S. 8. 8.; nothing can take Rheumatism, its place. Contagious S. S.

It is not the increase in the number of bales of cotton, the bushels of corn or the bushels of wheat, the price of any one of which can be cornered in New York any day in the year, but it is in the increase of brain in the masses of the people, that will make us truly great. Nobody has ever yet made a “corner” on brains. But there is another side to the question. That other side is not the money side and not the mere financial value of edu cation. Besides, it is as true now as it was two thousand years ago, that man cannot live by bread alone It is a serious question whether mere money-getters are worth much to the world. We, want underlying our public education a better thought. We desire that our children shall learn at school and at home, in soci» ety and everywhere, that the best product of civilization is manhood and womanhood, which cannot be pur chased in any of the markets of the world. The state that maintains u political power must be founded on a democ racy of learning. Therefore each county and state must provide for the education of her rulers. How may she do this except through her public schools? But, “Heaven was not reached in a single hound, Hut w e build u ladder by which we rise From the lonely earth to the vaulted skies, And we mount to the summit round by round.” Negro Picnic at Beech Haven, Negro picnic. A gun. The coro nor. The negroes had a picnic at Beech Haven Saturday and two of them never came back. It seems that the red serpant, whisky, was not the cause this time, but Satan in a negro. The negro Red is a bad coon, and it is said be snapped his pistol on a man in Cordele a few njghts ago. As to the killing we get the Grovania letter to the Telegraph : “There was a very large negro pic nic held near lr;re yesterday. Some of the negroes were quite boisterous, which resulted in the killing of one negro named Bob Pino. are the particulars of the killing: Bob Pine, a negro from near Perry, G*., came up to a negro known as Alabama Bed and handing him $5 asked him to change it. Alabama Red took the bill, put it in hie pocket and drew his 44-calibre pistol and in stead of changing the bill he deman ded Pine to give up the rest of Ills cash. Pine was frightened and turn ed to run He had made but a few steps when Alabama Red shot him in the back just above the hip, the ball mnging upward. Alabama Red then took the balance of Pine’s mon ey, about $3, and went about the crowd boasting of his crime. Pine died on the ground in about an hour. The other negroes were too afraid of Alabama Red to attempt to arrest him and ran whenever he came toward any of them, but he w as arrested as he boarded the shoofly train by the conductor and baggage master and taken to Elko and turned over to a bailiff, who carried him to Perry jail. He is a notorious charac ter and the negroes are glad he is be hind the bars.” SCOTS EMULSION . »■'-*lvos» V* OF COD-LIVER OIL WITH HYPOPHOSPHITES should always be kept in the house for the fol lowing reasons: ■MiX FIRST — Because, if any member of the family has a hard cold, it will cure it.
