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 ^qulrra. s : ftjgf 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. AMONG OUR NEIGHBORS. Richland now enjoys a money order office. Fort Valley is to have a military or ganization. The Macon Presbytery will meet at Cuthbert on the 15th inst. Webster court adjourned Thursday evening after a few days session. Cuthbert lias a prospect of a telephone exchange, and the Liberal is earnestly working for it. The telegraph office at Cuthbert has been moved from the depot to the busi ness part of town. Mr. Freeman Walker, a prominent cit izen of Lumpkin, died at Ids ho&e in that nlace, last Sunday at the age of eighty. 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.
