"I am not the Republican national convention,” said Senator Hanna to a reporter for the Chicag ■ t ribune the other day. Then that puts a new aspect upon the lace of things. Many persons have thought Mr. Hanna was the whole thing in Republican nation al politics. The deficiency of rainfall is begin ning to be felt all along the coastline, as far north as New York.

My lungs became hardened. 1 was so weak I couldn’t even sit up in bed. Nothing help ed me. I expected to soon die of Consump tion, when I heard of Dr. King’s New Discovery. One bottle gave great relief. I continued to nse it, and now am well and strong.

The New Orleans Picayune says that the fight against trusts and combines is already beginning to produce healthy results It declares that while the great trusts have not been destroyed, or even materia y crippled, their stocks and securities have great ly decreased in value. If this be true, the battle against them is well nigh won. Make them so unprofitable that their stocks will be valueless and they are conquered. No public sentiment car be strong enough, however, to do this. Nothing short of the strong arm of the law will conquer the trusts. A llackward Boy. President of the Company I guess yon’d better discharge that boy. Manager—Why? He seems to be a nice, quiet kind of a boy, and I haven't noticed that he has nt.cted President —That’s all very true, but I don’t think he has the making of a financial genius in him. He's been around here for more than three weeks now and hasn’t given either you or me to understand that he knows mors about the business than we do. — New York World.

LAND POOR. A Scheme to Give Every Man a Farm, by a Person Who is Land Poor. 1' ‘ s Mr. Editor : Some years ago I took an t idea that land was the safest investment j that a man could make in Georgia, and as j a consequence, I am now land poor; have more than I can profitably make use of, and consequently want to get rid of some, ' or all of it, and I have decided to adopt the following measure to get rid of it; I will say,in the first place, that the land is the best in Monroe county, is fine ly watered, and is adapted to raising cat tle, sheep and hogs, and is the best tor i cotton, corn, wheat, oats and other grains in the county. There are a number of ] tenant houses on the place, and a home recently built that cost me over $3,000 to < build. The land, in the first place, cost 1 me from $25 down to $4 per acn■—saying altogether, about $lO per acre, without improvements ; and to get nd of it, I will average the whole place at $lO per acre, in the following way : I will have the entire place, 1,600 acres, sub-divided into 50-acre lots, at $lO per acre, giving more than 50 acres to one party, if desired, and less than 50 to another, acc Tiling to his ability to pay for it, as the case may be, the entire quantity to be drawn for. In other words, the number of lots and quantity of land to be put in a bat or box, and drawn out under approval of a com mittee of gentlemen, at some stated time, so that all shall have a fair chance to get a home at a low price, and no one has a chance of losing their m iney, or failing to get their value, as paid, and some get a farm at far less than cost The land is 12 miles from Macon, a city of some 50,000 or 60,000 people, and is adapted to maiket gardening, and for northern people who know how to work, it offers a fine opportunity for a colony of energetic citizens. It is all together, and would make a fine water, springs, creeks, etc. The laud is timbered with hickory, beach, oak and pine, and some cedar ; in fact, it is the best : place I know of, and I am satisfied the ed itor of the Call will vouch for what I say- ,' I would be glad to have any parties who mean business, to go over the plantation, familiarize themselves with the advan tages, and communicate with me at Barnesville, before going into the matter, assuring them that I mean what I say. In addition to the terms offered above, I have concluded to make the terms of pay ment in four annual payments without interest, which is tantamount to putting the price of the land very low. The : titles to the land have been in the posses- ! sion of one or two parties for years, and I have never been questioned and are as ' good as gold. I am not particularly welded to this j plan of getting rid of my lands, but only j suggest the idea—any better plan would] be thankfully substituted. 8. B.
