Official Paper of tt» Ordlury

M Griffin.
We wonder il lbs reduction in tbe
school land appropriation will disband
the university foot ball team?
Gee. Wheeler will resign from con*
grees and retain bis commission in tbe
army. He says bo will resign In a few
weeks; that bo preferred army life and
fell as young as when a boy. He hopes
soon to bo old enough to make a good
soldier.
Tbe democrats might make trouble
for McKinley by putting up Joo
Wheeler lor president In 1900, with
some good northern democrat for
second place. General Wheeler, by
tbs way, is tbe only warrior-congress
man who refused to draw bie congres
sional salary while in tbe service-*
Minneapolis Times,
Ssnatoi Chandler would "dislike to
bavs the race problem come.into poli
tics again,” but does not see how it
can be kept out. He believes "some
notice will have to bo taken of what
has bsppened in North and South Car.
ollna” And why not in Illinois, where
the constitution was nullified and tbe
governor threatened to‘‘shoot to pieces
with Galling guns” colored citisens
from Alabama who sought the right of
working near tbe former home of Ab
raham Lincoln?—New York World.
The Savannah News says a North
Carolina negro named Hardee has
solved the rsce prob'em, so far as it
applies to himself. He owns a farm,
which ho purchased by bis own efforts,
upon which he has a good dwelling,
several good horses, a drove of cattle,
a number of hogs, sheep and goats; be
has a neat little bank account and bis
note is readily discounted at tfte bank
whenever be wishes to make an in
vestment. He taketi absolutely no in
terest io politics, never attempts to
fores himself into social equality with
the whites, attends to bis own busi
ness, pays bis debts and respects bis
neighbors.
Mr. Blalock’s Position.
Mr. Blalock was treading dangerous
ly near the line of demagogy in bis
speech on Tuesday on tbe school ap
propriation, when he made an issue
between town and eoontry, and in
veighed against the former. He seems
to regard it as the heaven given and
inalienable right of 117 Georgia coun
ties to be supported by the other twen
ty counties, and to resent as imperiia
nonce ths desire of the twenty counties
to be relieved of at least a part of their
burden of taxation.
If the conditions were reversed—if
tbe country counties were paying into
the state treasury more money than
they got back out of il; if the country
uuuuiies were contributing from 11) to
50 per cent, of their school taxes to
the support of schools in. cities—the
cry ol protect that-would go up from
Mr. Blalock would craok the akiea;
and it would be a just protest, too.
Gan it be possible that Mr. Blalock
thinks it right that the 117 counties
should be perpetual pensioners upon
tbe twenty counties because they have
tbe power to outvote the latter ia the
legislature? There is no reason for
any controversy between town and
country. Tbe former is not asking for
privileges, indulgences or favors. All
that is desired is just treatment, such
as both town and country eswntjes
have a right to expect from thw legis
lature—Savannah News.

HOW TO FIND OUT.
Fill a bottle or common glass with your
water and let it stand twenty-four hours;
a sediment or settling indicates an unheal
thy condition of the kidneys; if il stains
your linen it is evidence of kidney trouble;
too frequent desire to pass it or pain in the
back is also convincing proof that the kid
neys and bladder are out of order.
What to 80.
There is comfort in the knowledge so of
ten expressed, that Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp-
Root, the great Sidney remedy, fulfills ev
ery wish in curing rheumatism, pain in
tbe back, kidneys, liver, bladder and every
part of the Urinary passages. It corrects
inability to hold water and scalding pain*
in passing it, or bad effecto following use
of liquor, wine or beer, and overcomes that
unpleasant necessity of being compelled
to go often during the day, and to get up
many times during the night. Tbe mild
and the extraordinary effect of Swamp-
Root is soon realized. It stands the high
est for Ito wonderfal cures of the most dis
tressing cases. If you need a medicine you
should have the best. At druggists fifty
cents or one dollar.
You may here a sample bottle and a
book that tells more about it, both sent,
absolutely free by until, if you send your
address to Dr, Kilmer A Co., Bingham
ton, N. Y. When writing be sure and
mention that you read this generous offer
in the Middle Georgia Farmed.
Everybody Says Bc.
Jascarets Candy Cathartic, the most won
derful medical discovery of tbe age, pleas

THE C
m LIFE INSURANCE CO.
OF NEW YORK.
Breaks The Dividend Record.
It has always held the record securely, but the claim paid by the compa
ny upon a policy issued to Mr. Mark Banks, ofOonnecticut, the particulars
of which are given here, shows that THE MUTUAL LIFE has in this
stance eclipsed all previous dividend results:
p.ia
How does this happen? Mr. Banks paid all the premiums in cash,
he did this for fifty-four years. He did not utilize any portion of the divi
dends in payment of premiums, but permitted the Company to invest these
for his benefit. Here are the particulars:
Policy No. 1,283. * Issued March 5,1845. Amount $5,000.
Age 40. Annual premium, $l6O. Life Plan.
Original insurance in 1845,-U
Dividend additions paid in 1898,. ,la,UZo.w
Amount of death claim
54 Premiums paid by insured- o>ow-
Realized to estate over premiums paid- • • • • $5,888 00
Being nearly equal to a return of all the premiums paid with two and a halt (2J) per
cent, compound interest per annum, with insurance increasing annually trom vo,w
at age 40, to $17,028 at age 94. ,
The dividend additions paid to the estate were 139 per cent. of all tbe premiums
paid for the insurance.
Mr. Mark Banks was the treasurer and cashier of the Greenwich Savings
Bank, and died at the good old age of ninety*.four. He appreciated the
newer of compound interest, and his wisdom is exemplified by the result o.
Eis method of investment —a result that has never been equalled by a policy
holder in any other company in the world.
For best plans of insurance please consult me.
