EDiTOfi.lL NOTES.
This will be a year of elections.
This forebodes strife and conten¬
tion.
Bill Arp’s History of Georgia
will be used as a text book in our
public schools this year.
Young man don’t swear off.
Just drop your bad habits without
swearing.—Picayune.
It was funny to see the Atlanta
Constitution take the Evans boom
out of the gr p sack of the Jour¬
nal and run away with it.—Ish

Evans. —The Evans avglanc-he is
sweeping onward despite the lit¬
tle mounds thiown up here and
t.. _ . throughout Georgia by the
Atki nson opposi t ion.—Monroe
Advertiser.
Amaxure Photographer— Q ues.
Can good pictures be taken at
night? A ft s. Yes; in fact it is
safer to take a real fine picture at
night so that you can get away
with it easie...—Ex.
Slugger Mitchell,might be some¬
what pleased m case Governor
Mitcho-ll succeeds in squelching
the Corbett-Mitchell prize con¬
test in Florida.
It may or may not be true, still
it is said that the democrats of
the Ways and Means committee
have decided by a vote of 8 to 5
to report in favor of an individ
ual income tax.
The old eapitoi building in Mil
ledgeville, recently destroyed by
fire, will very probably be re¬
placed in the near future.
“Give us bonds,” is the demand
of the moneyed interests, “uive
us relief !” is the cry of the peo¬
ple. Let t le democratic party
take its choice.—Constituton.
----v.z. -ccw*—--
The Constitution becomes some
what wrought up because of some
assertions indulged in by Me A i
lister, and thus retorts.

At the proposition this paper
is exactly with you brother.
h ^ observed that Candi
dale , Atkinson takes his stand
reservedly, on the Georgia demo*
era He platform of *92. If General
Evans Io as wise as a candidate
lor Governor ought to be, he will
not hesitate to go and do
wise.—Henceforth, a great
democrats are not going to take
candidates on trust. Thelshmael
doesn’t hesitate to place itself
that category.—Ishmaelite.
“Recent legislation and the re¬
sults of legislation soon to come
before Congress is convincing
that this coumtry is too large and
its interests too varied to be un¬
dergone government. The time
is fast approaching when this fact
will be brought out quite forci¬
bly.”
The foregoing, taken from the
Oglethorpe Echo, is true to a let
ter and the opinion expressed
must prevail before our southern
section can come ful?y up to (he
bounds of its merited prosperity.
Sbiftiiig- Confulence.
Six months ago men with mo; -
ey to loan did not have confident e
in the ability of borrowers to pay
it back and they kept the r mon¬
ey.
Now people who would other¬
wise be borrowers have no confi¬
dence in business prosperity and
the values of property and they
let the lenders money -alone.
The instigators of the present
money panic m.y yet be called
on to contribute their share ol
the losses that their folly has
brought upon the people. It: is
said that “Chickens will coine
home to roost.”---Fort Valley
Leader.
A Hcmm-iia.ble School.
One of the most noted schools
in the State is Gordon Institute
at BarnesvRle, Ga. The histciy
of >the school is remarkable.
Twenty-five years ago, it began
its career as an ordinary academy,
but it has reached out from time
to time and added new and at
tractive features, so that now it is
almost a miniature university in
the number and perfection ol' its
departments. Besides the ordi¬
nary literary*features, it has de¬
partments of Military Science,

Saved Her Life.
Mrs. C. J. Wooldridge, of Wortham.
Texas, saved the life of he.r Pectoral. child by tho
use of Ayer*3 Cherry »
“One of my children had Croup. ThO
case was attended by our physician, and wat
supposed to lie we'll under control. hard One
night I wa.s startled by the child's
breathing, and on going to it found it stran¬
gling. It had nearly ceased to breathe.
Realizing that the child’s alarming condition
hail become possible in spite of the medicines
given, I reasoned that such remedies would
be of no avail. Having part of a bottle of
Ayer’s Cherry Pectoral in the house, I gave
the child three doses, at short intervals, ancl
anxiou ' sly waited results. Prom the moment
the Pectoral was given, the child’s breathing she
grew easier, and, in a breathing short time, naturally. was
The sleeping child cmietly alive and and well to-day, and I do
is Cherry
cot hesitate to say that Ayer’s Pec¬
toral saved her life.”
