Io an interview with Mr. Charles
A. Dana, that veteran journalist says
that Cbaancejr Depew “would un
doubtediy beat out of-eigbt in New
York any man the Democracy could
put up, with the exception of Govern
or Ilili.” It pains ua to sec that
Bre’j Dana still insists on essuming
the role of a prophet, notwitbstand
ing the fact that it has repeatedly
been shown that he is anything but
g prophet. To our certain knowledge,
none of bis political prophecies has
oome true since those daily predic¬
tion* of Mr. Cleveland’s defeat which
A the Sun was accustomed to reiterate
•along in the fall of ’84.
TALK AGE ON HOOD LIQUOR.
The Rev. Dr. Talmage is in favor
of pare, good liqar, and is down on
the vile stuff usually drank over.bais.
At a police court in New York he
made thesepbservations: “Drunk and
down was the charge made against
most of tboBo who were put under
scrutiny, ftnd most of us would run
right oft into temperance harangues.
Bat I do not believe that genuine
brandy or whisky oi wine does the
most of this. The most of these de
;V~ 5 have not
gtroyedjnen and women
had an honest drink for ten years.
The liqnor sellers mix up all sorts of
poison and call it ram. Genuine ram
tabes one more gradually down, de
sconding only an inch a mile, and de
ceives him with the idea that he is
not descending at all, until it is too
late to bait, bnt the awful slnfl these
wretches buy for three cents a glass
diops them as by a stroke of apo
plexy. They are as certainly drug
god as though some ono had poured
down their throat a dose of ‘Paris
green.’
•‘While our temperanco men are
lighting rum(and way God give them
gpoedy victory) the offioers of the
law should, with chemical experts,
go through the liquor saloons of New
York and show that not ono of them,
from Central Park to the Battery, is
selling what they pretend to soil, amt
present the horrors of liquor adulter
ation. When a few mornings ago I
saw the people arraigned for drunk
ness and noticed their burnt cheeks
and cracked lips and bleared eyes,
and consumed manhood and woman
hood, I telt like crying Fire! Fire! In
the swill that bad been fed them by
the liquor sellers were mixed log
wood, sugar of lead, yarrow, deadly
nightshade, turpentine, copperas, oc
colas indices, sulphuric acid, indigo,
potash, cochineal, blue vitriol and
other delicacies.
“Wbat is tho use of the Board ot
Health in any city if it allows such
liquid infamies? Great outcry against
oleomargarine in butter, and chicory
iu coffee, but bow harmless these
compared with this beverage of dyna
mite! Tell these poor victims what
you are going to give them when you
fill their glasses on the counter of
the groggery and they would decline
the sanctification of body and soul!“
An Imperative Necessity.
What pure air is to an unhealthy locality,
what spring cleaning U to the neat house¬
keeper, APcpvft so bu is » Hood’s uwu b Sarsaparilla cnrcttpun to every-
body, at this season. The body needs to be
thoroughly renovated, the blood purified and
vitalized, the verms of disease destroyed.
Scrofula, disorders Salt cured Rheum, by and Hood's all Sarsaparilla other blood

THE STATE SENATOBSHIP.
Spalding County being entitled
by the rotation rule to the Stale Sena
tor from this district, the agitation of
the subject which has been going on
lor a week or so past is not premature.
It i* well that it should como soon,
in order that a candidate may bo se
lected who is agreeable to the whole
party. Especially does this seem to
be the case in view of recent divis
ions caused by the prohibition ques¬
tion, and Democratic leaders are
obliged to be cautious to avoid
swelling the contingent of the third
party. Outside of this, however, it is
true
of this district, as ol all other dis
tricts in the State, that an able and
competent man should be chosen to
deal with the important questions
that will come up in the next General
Assembly.
So far we have heard but one
name mentioned prominently in con
nection with this position; and that
is tho name of Judge John I. Hall.
While Judge Hall has made no pub
lie announcement that he is a candi
date, yet bo has signified to b’s friends
that he would be willing to accept
the office if tendered him. That he
would make an admirable repr“senta
tive there can be no doubt. Ono of
tho ablest and most prominent law¬
yers in tbe.State, with a thorough ac
quaintance not only with State mea¬
sures, laws and policies, but with
men, there would be none in the
Senate who could outrank him. Ilis
views have already been published,
and are wise and conservative. He
has not been a partisan either for
or against prohibition and his declar
ation that he is not in favor of chang
ing the present status of that ques
tion by legislative enactment should
be satisfactory to the anti prohibi
tionists, while it has already been
endorsed by the former organ of the
prohibitionists. will find better
Where you a man
fitted not only for the position but
for tho situation!
In four weeks of May the receipts
Of cotton from our Southern plan¬
tations amount to 39,464 bales,
against 24,095 bales, the average for
that period of the two years last pre¬
ceding. There were 6,711,297 bales
of the last crop already counted and
sold at the end of last week, and if
t he average additional supply of the
last two years, 246,434 bales, comes
forward by September, which ends
the cotton year, the crop of 1887
yielded 6,957,731 bales; but if the
present weekly excess holds through
tho season it will be 7,105,591 bales.
This, tho biggest crop of all, is the
crop that the humbug Bureau of
Agriculture estimated at 6,300,000
bales.
Storms of many varieties raged over
the country Sunday night and Mon
day morniug, A waterspout that was
more like a river from the sky than
anything elso burst over a section of
Nebraska, doing great damage. Un
precedentecl rainfalls ate reported
from Illinois. Hail fell in Iowa. An
amatuer cylone swept over a portion
of Ohio and West Virginia, unroof
ing houses, carrying away fences
and causing other destruction. Sev
oral lives were lost.
The Kentuckian who brings a
heavy damage su>t for tho Joss of
three inches of his hair, may not
know it, but he is bulling the wig
market. Hair is scarce and costly lux
ury, and we are losing more of it
every year. Tho man who has lost
three inches of tiair should not make
a noise and bring a lawsuit, bnt he
he should quietly apply a little coal
oil and hope for tho best.
