COMFORT FOR OCR ESKMIES. We take pleasure iu adding to the physical comfort and pleasure even of our enemies. We realize bow essential it is for the Southern Republicans to be restorod to office. .With unswerving patriotism and party fealty they have looked for¬ ward to the time when they could find active employment and fitting re muneration. In Harrison’s letter of acceptance ia a passage that will *et at rest any fears of Democrats remaining in of- fise. Toe President elect, so called, aaya: “The law regulating appointment* to the classified civil service r»ceiv ed my support in the Senate in the belief that it opened the way to a much needed reform. I atill think so, and therefore cordially approve the clear and forcible expression of the convention on this subject. Only the interest of the public ahould sug ge*t removals from office. It will be my sincere purpose, if elected, to ad vance the reform.” Ia Life Wurth Llrtef ' Hew often dues the pattent mother who has juat kid away the utile one that fed Bgitoi^sails from tfte effects of teething, 3 CO*eRICKS II meg* BKB. i good and prwentar* poaiponed tb« «oxieti*» or atpirations cf the tare. W< are all juat now »ery much concerned about the political ion and probable course of the first Congress. It is natural just ter the election we should give such heed to election results. Today it is clear that the balance of power in the next House of IteproseutstiTes depend* upon a narrow margin that the ordinary casualties of life in p 0 m lcfl may alter. But the first session of our next Congress will not commence during the Administration ...............— of - Clfieoland. Apart from extraordinary and im probable contingencies demanding an extra session, the newly elected Congressmen will not assemble until after the expiration of more than a year. The responsibility that now rests upon the Democracy of the United States ia not what will bap pan in the legislative sphere at Wash ington daring the session of 1889*90 bat for what will be done in the sea aion of 1888-89. The second session of the Fiftieth Congress bas a great duty and a great opportunity. The majority in the House of Representatives does not represent a defeated pa-ty. It stands for those who elected its mem bers, and it is bound by the princi pies, traditions and mandates of its constituents as completely as if there had been no national election this year. Especially is it thus beholden in view of the facts that the majority of the voters of the country have not pronounced against Democratic principles, and that the corrupt use of mouopoly funds and the employ ment of intimidation over ners have been sufficient to turn scale of legalized determination the popular verdict against the free will of our people. Iu our government of ehecka and balances providing for the survival of duly appointed authority after the registration ef adverse sentiment as to other branches of public it is all important that no division of the governmental service should regard its mission as until its commission has expired. Tho Supreme Court and the are still Re publican, after four of Democratic executive power. House of Representatives is Democratic by a good working ity, notwithstanding the elections 1888. Tho immediate duty of all orats is, therefore, ta the bands of our representative* the present Congress, ae thai may live up to tb* standard of ocratie faith and yield nothing might be used to Democratic vantage in the comparison Cleveland’s and Harrison’s trations. It will be always borne mind by our Congressmen that result of tho election of 1892 chiefly depend upon the history the Democratic era that will not interupted until March 4, Lot ns do well our part until the of our commission from the can people, and leave nothing our opponents to trade upon their own acts of performance omisiion when responsibility upon them. The future of the country now chiefly depends on the firmness, doui and solidarity of the ic majority of the Fiftieth Congress. We are confident that there will no shortcoming to deplore, no rash ness to regret. The spirit of Democratic masses is Their delegates must not fail to spond to it by their council tbeir votes.

Editor— 1 The fallowing article noHigned Appeared in the ConMitu lion of last Friday: NOT FOR WOMACK. AN ARTiCf.lt IX VKSTBBDAf’a CONST! TC TION WHICH PROVOKED A 8MII.K. A friend of Mr. Emmett Womack, the pop- ulsr solicitor general of the Flint circuit, pointing to the following article, whicli ap¬ peared in yesterday’s Constitution said: “l would like to know where your report- er got that piece of inf irmation. He cerlaln* ly did not get St from Mr. Womack.” The following is the article referred to : Colonel J. D. Stewart, member of con¬ gress lrom this district, spent a few days iu the city peuding tke re-election of his friend Emmett Womack as solicitor general. After this had been accomplished lie returned home, highly pleased with the result. The article created some amusement among Mr. Womsck’B friends, and it seems as if the laugh la on Congressman Stewart. The story of his connection with this race is told as follows : Congressman Stewart came np to Atlanta from tirifllu as a friend of Mr. Womack’s with the intention of doing what he could to have him re elected by the legislature. He was the judge of the Flint circuit when Mr. Womack was solicitor-general, and there has always existed a warm friendship between tlietwo. When Mr Btewart arrived in the city he found that a tremendous pressure was being brought to bear by Rockdale coun ty in favor of Mr, George W. oleaton, who aspired to Mr. Womack’s posltien. Mr. Gleaton’s supporters from Rockdale county were particularly zealous in his behalf, and approaching Congressman Stewart they no¬ tified him that theircounty was in his (Stew¬ art's) congressional distriot, and that it would accordingly appreciate any fav¬ ors which Mr. Stewart might extend to Mr. Glcato . Just how this affected Mr, Stewart is not known, but it appears that Mr. Stew- art at once lost his enthusiasm in Mr. Wom¬ ack’s race, and as a Iriend of Mr. Womack's said yesterday : “The distinguished congressman satisfied the Rockdale delegation that Mr. Gleaton need f car no trouble from him. It certainly appears that Mr. Womack did not not re¬ ceive the b enefit of Mr. Stewart’s influence, and it is reported that the well-known solici¬ tor of the Flint circuit does not cherish a lov¬ ing memory of Congressman Stewart's visit to the city.” I beg leave to say in reference to tho above article that it is not true that I “spent a few days in the city pending the re-election of Mr. Worn nek.'’ For the fact is that on Wed nesday, the first day of the session, I was taken sick at Griffin, took my bed on Thtmlay and from that day until Sunday morning was under the care of Dr, Drowry. of Griffin—and when I got up S uuday during the day it was ngainst his protest. I went to Atlanta on Sunday night and was also there a part of the day Mon day pending Mr, Womack’s election, Neither Sunday night or Monday did any delegation from Rockdale county or any of the supporters of Mr. Gleaton approach mo or notify me ‘‘that their county was in his (Stewart’s) congressional district and that they would accordingly appre elate any favors which Mr. Stewart might extend to Mr. Gleaton.’ No such meeting, conference or cousulta tion ever took place, and the whole scene depicted is a pure fabrication. It is a well known fact in the dis trict where we live that for personal reasons I bad a special friendship for Mr. Womack, and hold both him and Mr. Gleaton in high esteem as gen tlemen of character and intelligence. I make the ubovo statement of facts as absolutely true and for tho purpose of vindicating myself from tho false charges nud insinuations contained in the article referred to. John D. Stewart. Catarrh 1* * constitutional disease, caused by scrota. lou» taint in the blood. Hood’s Sarsaparilla, being a constitutional remedy, purifies the blood, builds up the whole system, and per¬ manently cures catarrh. Thousands of people Who suffered severely with Uiis disagreeable disease, testify with pleasure that catarrh Can be cured by taking Hood’s Sarsaparilla. Mr*. Alfred Cunningham, Fallon Avenue, Provi¬ dence, B. I., says; “ I have suffered with catarrh la my head for years, and paid out hundreds of dollars for medicines, but have heretofore received only temporary relief. I began to take Hood's Sarsaparilla, and now my catarrh Is nearly cured, tho weakness of my body Is all gone, my appetite is good —1* fact, I feel like another person. Hood’s Sar- iapartlla Is the best medicine I hare ever taken, and the only one which did me perma¬ nent good. I cordially recommend It.” A gentleman in Worcester, Mass., who wa* Cured Ot catarrh by Hood's Sarsaparilla, says: “ I would not take any moneyed consideration for the good one bottle did me.” If you are a sufferer, do not put off taking a simple remedy till your bronchial tubes or lungs are affected, an$ consumption has gained a hold npon you. a.
