A BLOW TO THE TRUST
Court Decides Trusts Cannot Collect 1
for Goods Sold in Missouri-
St Lot is, M>, May —Trusts :c i
ceived a knock->nt blow in the court
of appeals yesterday, which is likely
to drive them out of business in the
state. The judges unanimously de
cided that trusts canrot collect for
goods sold within the borders ot the
state. The Missouii anti-trust law is
sustained and it is further declared
that all pools to fix a limit to prices of
any commodity are illegal.
The dicision today was particularly I
against the National Lead Trust, which '
sold goods to a St. Louis lirm and was 1
endeavoring to collect therefor. I
The trust people have made a very
desperate fight, exhausting every legal 1
resource in their attempt to defeat the 1
constitutionality of the state anti
trust law. The fact that the judges 1
were unanimous in their opinion :
makes the decision a strong one. The <
merits of the case and the constitu- 1
tionality of the Missouri law have I
been widely discussed. There is a ‘
growing sentiment in other states 1
against, trusts, and it is believed .that <
as a result of the unanimous decision £
of the court, auti-’.rust laws are to be t
introduced in the legislatures of other I
states, will follow the essential features c
of the Missouri law, which has ah
ready stood the test. The law is de- £
dared to be a model of its kind, it hav
ing been framed by some of the ablest a
constitutional lawyers ifi the country, c

A Fine Beef a
Director R. J. Redding, of the Geor- c
gia Experiment Station, sold a beef
cow this morning for $-18 <>s, which is
probably the largest amount ever real* 1
iz?d from a beef in this county. t
The cow was a Holstein, having a t
large frame, and Colonel Redding says (
be could have put 200 pounds more fat
on her. when she would netted over 1
$ ;>5
The price paid was 3j cents per e
paund gross, and the purchaser says ‘
he would like to take a car load at the f
same price. .
There is money in raising cattle in r
Spalding county, and we are glad to 1
see that the farmers are becoming in* '
c
terasted in the matter. H
Only last week a car load of fine 1
Spalding county milch cows were sold
to a party from New < trleans, who paid
over SBOO for the lot.
Dirt has been broken for the erec
tion of the Dixie Creamery in this city, c
and when it begins operation, dairy I
farms will take the place of cotton
fields and the farmers of Spalding, at <
least, will be prosperous and happy, '
The manure from their dairy will ena
ble them to raise cotton, if they care '
to do so, at a profit, when selling it at
5 cents per pound. i
Off For the Satilla. <
At 8 10 tonight the members of the
Satilla River Fishing Club will leave <
for their annual outing on the banks i
of that noted river.
All day long drays have been haul- i
ing goods to the car, which is side
tracked in the Southern yard, and |
judging from the varied assortment
with which it is filled, the party ex- <
pects to have everything necessary for i
their comfort during the ten days they
are gone.
The following members of the club I
will leave tonight :
W. D. Davis, T J. White J A I
Brooks, Eli Brewer, J. F. Stewart, R.
F. Strickland, R. A Drake, E. C.
Smith, F. B Terry, J H. Smith, Doug
las Boyd, Joe D. B .yd, J B Mills, F
G. Bailey, J M Kimbrough, Jr.
Deafness Cannot be Cured
by local applications as they cannot reach
the diseased portion of the ear. There is
only one way to cure deafness, and that is
by constitutional remedies. Deafness is
caused by an inflamed condition of the
mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube.
When this tube is inflamed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and
when it is entirely closed, deafness is
the result, and unless the inflammation
can be taken out and this tube restored to
its normal condition, hearing will be de
stroyed forever; nine cases out of ten arc
caused by Catarrh, which is nothing but
an inflamed condition of the mucous sur
faces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any case of Deafness (caused by catarrh)
that cannot be cured by Hall’s Catarrh
Cure. Send for circulars; free.

GOMEZ IN THE SADDLE-
■ Junta Decides to Organize a Cuban
National Guard of 12 000
Havana, May 3 Die junta of
Cuban generals met yesterday, Gen.
Gormz presiding. The meeting adopt
ed resolutions removing from active
service several generals and other an
tagouiets to Gen. Gomez, The de
posed officers are highly indignant.
They assert that the junta has not ths
right to remove them.
The junta also decided to organize
a Cuban national guard cf 12,000, des
pite General Brook’s statement to Go
mez that such a force is unnecessary
and that the country was unable to
bear the expense.
D. F. Dolan, the special agent of
the postoffice department, has just re
turned from a trip into the country.
He has been engaged in establishing
a free mail delivery at Pinar del Rio,
Sagna, Caibaiien, Matanzis and Car
denas. In the latter two cities lie
merely perfected the work already be
gun. In the other three places he
abolished the Spanish system, where
three cents was charged for each let
ter delivered. The letter carriers now
get $350 a year in gold, which is more
than they’ formerly received. The peo
ple are greatly pleased with the
change.
Since November 307,903 tons of su
gar cane have been ground
A dispatch from Puerto Principe
says that bandits have appeared in the
outskirts of the city, where they sack
ed a store, kidnapped the propritor
and bis wife and committed other
outrages.
Spreads Like Wildfire.
You can’t keep a good thing down.
News of it travels fast. When things
are “the best,” they become ‘‘the best
selling.” Abraham Hare, a leading
druggist, of Belleville, O, writes:
“Electric Bitters are the best selling
bitters I have ever handled in my 20
years experience.” You know why?
Most diseases begin in disorders ol
stomach, liver, kidneys, bowels, blood
and nerves. Electric Bitters tones up
the stomach, regulates the liver, kid
neys and bowels, purities the blood,
strengthens the nerves, hence cures
multitudes of maladies. It builds up
the entire system. Puts new life and
vigor into any weak, sickly, run
down man or woman. Only 50 cents,
sold by Harris and Son and Carlisle A
Ward, druggists. Guaranteed,

Charlotte, North Carolina, illustrates
j the advantages of cotton mills. The
Manufacturers Record, in referring to
that progressive Southern city, says ;
“Ten years ago Charlotte, N C , had
a population of about 10,000 and one
cotton mill. Today its population is
more than 28,000 and its twelve cotton
mills are running day and night in
the manufacturing of cotton yarns,
gray cloths, ginghams, toweling, wed
ding, sash cord, hosiery, batting, and
wadding, and its five clothing factories
are titilC.iog every hr nr of daylight to
keep up with orders, These factories
are the direct result of cotton mills,
while as an auxiliary feature of textile
life there are the four firms which
contract to design, build and equip
cotton mills complete, and which are
kept busy, while the five machinery
and supply houses are shipping goods
every day.”
We call the attention of our local
capitalists to the above showing. It is
a striking one and illustrates what
manufacturing does for a town. The
cotton mills now here have proven a
success so far, and there is room for
more.
We are in the heart of the great
cotton producing section of the state,
and cotton can be delivered at a fac
tory here without a cent being paid for
transportation. The question is one
which every properly holder who feeli
any interest in building up the town
should ponder and study.
When Nature
Needs assistance it may be best to rcndei
it promptly, but one should remember tc
use even the most perfect remedies onlj
when needed. The best and most simph
and gentle remedy is the Syrup of Figs
manufactured by the California Fig Syruj
Co.
Pitts’Carminative is pleasant to tin
taste, acts promptly, and never fails t<
give satisfaction. It carries children ove
the critical time of teething, and is th
friend ot anxious mothers and puny chil
dren. A few doses will demonstrate it
value. E. H. Dorsey, Athens, Ga., w rites
“I consider it the best medicine I have ev
er used in my family. It does all yoi
~ claim for it, and even more.”
