EDITORIAL NOTES. Mr. Henvv M . Gladys proposed history of the south will doubtless be a valuable and interesting work. There is not a more brilliant writer south, or one whose heart heats truer [ 0 her every interest. Several-counties are taking active anti energetic measures to secure the location of the experimental farm and station. The competition is lively all< l ^ does not yet appear which win. The Georgia Press Association pro pose to take a pleasant trip to the west in June, returning bv the way of Cincinnati. This annual pleasure excursion is the one bright experience in the life of the hard worked Geoi - gia editor. The first number we have received of , the , new Wesb w Point Press, „ edited r , | by W. B. Callaham, came to us Mon day evening. . T It IS . a SIX . Column ■, pa p er ^ Frinifull o f news and every line gives evidence of the editorial ability of the writer. The Journal hearti¬ ly wishes success to the new paper. It is a hopeful indication of good to the country, that the majority of the men composing Harrison’s Cabi¬ net, though men of wealth are self made. If they exercise the same bus¬ iness sense—governed by the right principles—that i *. made them show , ful , as individuals, ., they ,, may Muse administrative ability m affairs of state. Rev. Sam Small opened the prohi¬ bition campaign for the November election in Atlanta at DeGives opera house. He had a packed audiaace „»J made »en,e teUing point, again.! the high license whisky tariff regula tors. His remarks were received with much enthusiasm. Atlanta has an ordinance forbid¬ ding minors in liquor saloons. Com¬ menting on this, in his speech open¬ ing the temperance campaign in At¬ lanta Sunday Sam Small said it was good to stop the minors, lint better to stop the majors too. The fight would be won if we could stop out the Geo gia Majors and Colonels as well. In the supreme court reports of Georgia will be found the brief of evidence of a witness who testifies that a Talbot county farmer was so good at figures that the witness built a gin house for him according to his plan and specifications, and so close was the calculation that when the job was finished the witness took all the nails left, home in one hand while he carried the other surplus material home on the arm at one turn. This close calculation seems to have been overmatched by the commission em¬ powered to build Georgia a capitol. Authorized to expend a million dol¬ lars they now pronounce the job com¬ plete with only eighteen dollars and some cents over. It has been a very neat calculation. For the Hamilton Journal.

Refetence in .conversation is fre¬ quently made to “die good old times of our fathers," clearly implying that the world is making no moral pro gi ess. It is true that the world is not better morally than in the ages past? look few facts. There Let us at a are in the United States 81,717 ministers of the gospel, 886,000 Sunday school teachers, 115,610 churches, 17,672, 872 communicants, $163,000,000 has been contributed to home and for¬ eign missions in the last 20 years, 28,000 churches have been erected in the last ten years, or an average of 8 per day. $69,000,000 has been, put in denominational colleges , $21 000,000 in non-denominational col¬ leges. The world has 300,000,000 of professing Christians. These tacts demonstrate that in no period of the world’s history wa» moral sentiment and honest integrity so effective and potent as now, spreading light and happiness to so large a class of the human family. The average intelli¬ gence and morality are higher than at any former period and the influence for good may be observed with all classes of men. The minions of evil have retired to the dark places of earth, a d a healthy public opinion stands as a guiding beacon on t ie hi g hwa y of lime ’ The great Henry „ Grat on the Irish statesman, once said that big otry may survive persecution but t, can never survive toleration. Chris tians and religionists of every name and order are growing more liberal and broader in sentiment and action. The most unpopular, if not the most odious thing known is intolerance. Evc-ry one, be his cre ed what it may, is entitled and allowed to worship. ac- - cording to the dictates of fits own conscience. Keen Italy in her m,<l night darkness is learning this lesson.

M KUOR. «*■*»• « *■ THE LOST ATLANTIS. Fot many centuries there has been a tradition of a long lost island At | anl j s -fhe Greek geographers loca ted it in the Atlantic Ocean, west of northwest part of Africa and the Pil larsof Hercules. The sea-kings of Atlantis are said to have invaded Europe and Africa, and to have been defeated by the Athenians. All the legends agree that it was a vast island, of inexhaustible resources, and inhabited by a race of superior people. For ages this island hay ex¬ j jgted only in legendary of modern lore. But research now : | lel ,| 1C light the w i j s uirne( ] f u j( upon tire investigation, p e |-, 0 ] f j t | ie i ost Atlantis at our very doors. So the bigoted medical fraternity goes groping about in the dark, seek ’ ing for an Atlantis or Esculapius, when if’they investigate, they would behold the lost Atlantis at their very door. With their ancient text book, a case of physic, a paper in their waist coat giving them license to practice, experiment and dose with injurious drugs, cauterize and perform unnec¬ essary acts, with no ( ,eison or laws to hold them accountable, they continue their bigoted, unjustified practice, staring into vacancy, and imagining that they see in themselves an Es culapius. Wrapped in ancient bigotry, they are crying out against all improve¬ ments tLat have been made in medi cal science. They denounce any new idea advanced by a layman or an opposition school a» a fraud. Why? Because humanity will not be ben fieted? Not at all, but because their special ism did not make the discov ety. concede Yet they that there is no remedy known to their -materia med ica that will cure an advanced kidney malauy and the disease arising there¬ from—although many of them know from crowning proof that Warner’s Safe Cure will—but unscrupulously treat symptoms and call them a di¬ sease, when in reality they know they are but symptoms. A few of the more honest physi cians admit that Warner’s Safe Cure is a valuable remedy, and a great blessing to mankind, but say, in so many words, when asked why they do not prescribe it, that they cannot, according to their code. Nevertheless’ the world is fast be¬ coming satisfied that the cure for kid¬ ney and liver diseases, in whatever form or condition, has been discover¬ ed, and there is no doubt but War¬ ner’s Safe Cure and its fame will live long after such bigotry as we have in¬ stanced is dead and buried. The late eminent physician and writer, Dr. J. G. Holland, published in “Scribner’s Monthly,” and showed his opinion of such bigotry, and no doubt was satisfied that Atlantis might possibly be discovered in a pro¬ prietary medicine, when he wrote ed¬ itorially, as follows: “Nevertheless, it is a fact that many ol the best proprietary medi-I cine s of the day were more success-; f u j than many physicians, and most o them, it shouk e remem erec, were first discovered or 1used m actu a l medical practice. \\ hen, however, any shrewd person, knowing their vir tue, and foreseeing their popularity, seC ures and advertises them, then, m the opinion of the bigoted, all virtue wen t out of them, SATISFACTION OR MONEY REFUNDED. ^ ; y ce i e brated German com J eme dies arc so l d at the fob , P J ® Store H r a taula Cochra „. p M TallYj vVhitesville, Ga. | jecommend these remedies as re¬ liable goods.
