Americus, Oa., April 12, 1801.
Db. Skklyk, the well-known college
president, declares that at the present
rate of progress the women of the coun
try will at the end of the present century
be better educated than the ineii.
It has been over a week since General
Alexander was reported by the railroad
newspapers to have resigned in favor of
Hugh Inman. Do these papers propose
to let the Central railroad people run
that road without their help as long as a
week at a time?
Carter Harrison shows his lack of
knowledge of the elections of the South
when he attempted to compare the
frauds in Chicago with a Southern elec
tion. The elections in the South are
strictly honest when compared with
those in some of the Northern States.
Tiie New Orleans Delta publishes cor
respondence to show’ that the three Ital
ians, Trashina, Dagnetto and Marches!,
who among the lynched murderers at
New Orleans are claimed as Italian sub
jects, were bandits who could not re
main in their own country, and that
they lived in New Orleans under assumed
names.
A cable despatch from Paris announc
es the death of M. Edmond Dehault de
Pressense, a well known Parisian Prot
estant author and pastor, and who had
been for nearly ton years a life Senator
of the Republic. lie was the author of
many able books on religion and semi-
religious subjects, his “Life of Christ”
being generally considered ono of the
happiest of all the replies to the work
of M. llenan.
Wbesti.ino with the intricacies of the
dog law iii the Georgia Legislature pics
the full measure of statesmanship of
which little Tommy Watson was capa-
bio, and he is now engaged in an at
tempt to illuminate the Egyptian obscu
rity that surrounds his name by saying
something In the papers so startlingly
ridiculous that somebody will feel call
ed upon to notice him. Let Tommy
crawl back into his hole and pucker the
perimeter of said hole around his Lilipu-
tian microcosm, or words to that effect.
The New Yerk Herald advocates the
theory that dust is the promoter if not
the cause of la grippe, saying: “It has
been noticed that la grippe is much
more contagious during a time when the
air is permeated with the One dust
which is whipped off the street by the
wind. The grippe microbe seems to
find a lodging place in the particles of
dust, and as every roan who walks in
the publio street is bound to inhale a
certain quantity of dust he is sure to
take into his system the grippe germ.
If the body is in a healthy condition the
microbe has no effect; If, however, the
microbe happens to light on a person
not in good health la grippe U sure to
add another victim to his already long
Mist,” The Herald calls for extensive
aise of street sprinklers as a proventa-
Ttive, and some physicians agree that the
rfacts seem to support the correctness of
the Ilorald’s theory and the remedy.
Simultaneously with the sailing of
Baron Kara, the Italian minister, from
New York yesterday, comes the rumor
that Minister Porter is to be expelled
from Italy, because Secretary Blaiuo
has not yet answered Rudiui’s hist note,
touching the Matia affair. While the
opinion seems general that Italy is
merely bluffing, stranger things have
happened than that the Italian navy may
steam into New York harbor and call
for some such indemnity as $100,000,000,
sium that would have to be paid in-
stanter at the point of the destruction of
the city. In spite of General Kell’s as
sertion we have a good navy, there are
•o many thousands of miles of exposed
and defenceless seacoast from Portland
to Galveston that were our navy ten
times its present si/.o we could scarcely
hope to be safe from a levying of tribute
by Italy or any other European nation
with such navies as several of them have.
Harrison’s fear of the Grand Army
of the Republic and Its vote in the next
convention and elections, is the only
thing that deters him from demanding
the resignation of Gen’l Rosecrans as
register of the treasury. The general is
as good a Democrat as he was a soldier;
and being appointed by Cleveland still
holds over, much to the disgust of the
president and the chagrin of tiie Repub
lican aspirants. Should he bo forced
out, such a howl would be raised by
the old soldier element as would effec
tually fix the fate of the administration.
Yet the threats are both loud and deep
from good Republicans who want the
office Rosecrans so ssfely holds, that
they will make trouble If the president
don’t provide for them, and.betwcen the
politicians who want the soft berth and
the soldiers who insist that Rosecrans
.nasi not be fired, the president is in
a quandary from which the general re
fuses to deliver him by resigning. Let
Rosecrans hold, and let the president

THE TIMES-RECORDER.
The *1 imks-Rec obi»kk, of Americus,
grows better with each issue. It is in
deed an honor to its city and section.—
Cordelian.
After a suspension of publication for
two weeks the two Americus papers
1 have been consolidated. Mr. Bascotn
| Myrlck will he managing editor of The
Timkk-Rkc'OBHEB. They were two of
the best papers in the state and they
have been greatly missed during their
suspension. Success to the combina
tion.—Cuthbert Liberal.
It was a pleasure the other day to note
among our exchanges The Americus
Timkh-Rktoiidbk, a consolidation of the
Times and Recorder. WithC’apt. Myrlck
ami Major Glessner at the helm the
success of our morning contemporary is
assured. We are glad to see that the
water war is over. We’ve had plenty of
rain of late, and hope the consolidation
is a forerunner of good weather.—Macon
County Citizen.
Tiie two bright dailies of Americus
that have undergone a “drouth” for
some time have consolidated under the
head of Times Recorder, Editor Gless
ner, of tiie Recorder, retiring. The
press loses a valuable member in Mr.
Glessner’s retirement, but we will con
sole ourselves on the fact that lie has
not retired from Georgia, and Sumter
county should congratulate herself upon
having such an enterprising man for a
citizen.—Fort Gaines Chronicle.
Sunday morning we received the first
issue of The Amebic is Timeh-Rkcohd-
kb in its consolidated form. This issue
was gotten up hurriedly and was of
course imperfect, hut the management
assures the public that it will issue a
first-class paper when the business and
new management lias been thoroughly
organized. We welcome the paper back
to this office, and hope the editors will
hereafter have plenty of water and not
be forced to take something else.—Ma
rion County Patriot.
The Times-Recoiideb, of Americus,
made Us appearance Sunday. It was
the first paper from Americus we had
seen in three weeks. The paper is own
ed by Americus, almost every business
and professional man in the city owning
stock in it. Mr. Itascom Myrick is busi
ness and editorial manager. Connected
with him are Messrs. 11. A. Chapman
and J. W. Furlow. Mr. A. S. Harper
will be city and news editor: Major W.
L. Glessner will bo corresponding editor.
It is a strong team and will give the peo
ple of that thriving city a first-class pa
per.—Cuthbert Liberal.
The Americus Tjmes-Rkcokoeu made
its appearance last Sunday for the first
time. It Is the result of the combina
tion of the Times and the Recorder. It
is a creditable paper now, though it is
announced that the paper is not what it
will be as soon as the necessary arrange
ments can be made. It will take the
press dispatches and have able corps of
correspondents. Mr. Bascotn Myrick,
who was editor of the Times, has been
elected editor and business manager;
Mr. H. A. Chapman, late of the Calhoun
Times, Mr. J. W. Furlow, an old Ameri
cus boy, and Mr. A. S. Harper, formerly
of the Recorder, are also on the editorial
staff. Major Glessner is editorial cor
respondent, while C«»l. II. C. Storey says
he will take a rest. We wish the new
paper much success, os it will no doubt
have.—Richland Gazette.
It seems to be taken for granted by
the press of the state that Col. Living
ston has so carefully put up his fences
that his "re-election to the presidency of
the State Alliance is assured. Col. Liv
ingston made a speech in Albany Friday
to a meeting of Alliancemen, but some
how or other the Colonel didn’t seem to
think it worth his while to speak at
Americus, so he gave us the go-by, as
did Editor Harry Brown earlier in the
week. Perhaps the program is to save
up the bellicose Larry for this wicked
town, and let him pour out the vials of
his wrath upon its unregencratc, who
don’t dance the highland fling when
Col. Livingston fiddles, but who prefer
Alliance music played by a different
musicians.
Colonel Anna Dickinson, after a
brief period of alleged insanity, is again
on deck, and is suing tiie Republican
National Executive Committee for cam
paign services in 1888. Colonel Anna is
now best remembered by her venture of
the character of Hamlet upon the theat
rical boards, wherein the poanut gal
lery guyed her so unmercifully about
the vacuum that existed where the
calves of Hamlet’s legs ought to have
been, that she quit the stage in high
dudgeon and plunged into Republican
politics. Matt Quay still owes her
$5,000 for her Harrison speeches, and
the debt isn’t likely to be any smaller
until the interest and lawyers’ fees eat
up ihe principal and leave the eloquent
Anna to seek another engagement.
\Yun Luna.
This is the queer name of a Chinese
laundrytnan in Hartford, but he has
probably two lungs, like most of us.
Some crying babies seem to have a doz
en. Lungs should be sound, or the
voice will have a weakly sound. Dr.
Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery
makes strong lung.*, drives the cough
Away, generates good blood, tones the
nerves, tmilds up the human wreck and
makes “another man” of him. Night-
sweats, blood-spitting, abort breath,
bronchitis, asthma, and all alarming
forerunners of Consumption, are postive-
Iy cured by this unapproachable remedy,
I If taken In time, Consumption itself
can be baffled..
JUUGK CRISP AND THE TARIFF.
Perhaps there has never been a great
er waste of ink and paper than that in
dulged in by several papers in defending
Judge Crisp’s tariff record.
Nobody but the Judge’s political op
ponents, supplemented by crank Jones
and little Tommy Watson, have had the
temerity to assail the Gibraltar of Ids
political record; and why anybody
should consider it necessary to defend
the Judge against such partisan and
asinine attacks is a mystery to The
Times-Recobder.
Judge Crisp goes to Kansas City to
day not to defend his own record, but to
promote the cause of tariff reform in
the strongholds of protection.
Inasmuch as Tiie Times-Rrcordeb is
published at J udge Crisp’s home, and
has persistently advocated his candidacy
for the speakership, it might be regard
ed as an evidence of lukewarmness that
The Tiues-Rei'ohdeu docs not now
raise a war whoop and rush to the res
cue of its candidate. The truth L, no
such demonstration is justified by the
facts, nor needed to defend that which
is unassailable.
Such attacks as have been made so
far only display tiie partizanship or im
becility, or both, of those who make
them, and don’t deserve to be treated
with the dignity of a serious reply.
The Times-Recobdkb has never waiv-
ered in its belief that the calling and
election of Judge Crisp is assured, and
such futile assaults as are being made
on his record serve only to emphasize
tiie eminent qualifications which his
character and record give him for the
Speaker of the House of Representa
tives.

How I whs Cured of So-Called Cancer.
Lulaton, GA.
Dear Sir—This is to certify that I
was a sufferer with a place on my under
lip for fourteen years, and was under
treatment of different physicians, but
they done me no good. I had lost hope
of being cured by medical treatment. I
then went to a doctor living in Florida,
who treated them by art. After going
to him it got well, apparently, for a
while, but returned as bad as ever. I
then concluded to try P. P. P. (Pricklv
Ash, Poke Root and Potassium), and af
ter taking five bottles (pint size) was
cured. I also find it to be a good medi
cine to give a good appetite and to give
proper digestion. Yours truly;
L. J. Strickland.
