Spbakxb Crisp’s selection of John T.
Waterman, of Americus, as private sec
retary gives general satisfaction.
Fobakeb's adberants In hia fight for
the Ohio Senatorsblp, are dropping oft
like “land flies from a dandelion,” and
•“solitary and alone” be will toon stand—
the victim of hla own Iniquity.
A steam pipe exploded under the seat
of Jerry Simpson. Things are looking
blue for this third party apoatle, but tbe
wind still murmurs through Peffer's
whiskers. His capillary adornment is
.proof against anything short ot the
■arch angel's trumpet
Preparations are being made on a
grand scale in Amerlcui to banquet
-Speakor Crisp when be comes home for
athe holidays. The voice of Edgar Sim
mons will be misted, kt he wonld proba
bly have been one of the prinoipal
speakers.—Enquirer-Sun.
Editor Moore of the Macon Evening
Hews, having convinced himself, that
Thomas Watson la a “bump on tbe con
gressional log,” la now dedicating hla
energies to scalping the Sun. When Ed
itor Moore unllmbera bla gatling gun
you may expect tlie walls to tumble
down. .
The Hew York Herald vigorously ad
vocates the active co-operation of Hew
York In making the World’s Fair at
Chloago a brilliant Industrial success.
This la the proper spirit to display, for
the hatchet should have been burled too
deep for the resurreotion angel immedl
• ately after the alto was chosen.

The government of Hayti has Anally
token a atop which hat been In contem
plation for some time, and whtrh has
been the subject of much deliberation
on the part of Prealdent Hlppolyto and
bla cabinet This la no leu than a pro
clamation by the President annonnolng
a general amnesty to pollUeal offender!
This carries with It the Immediate liber
alion of political prisoners now In cus
tody in the various prisons of the Re
public.
Editor Evan P. Howell, of Atlanta,
has signified bis Intention of being prer
entat the grand reception given by
Amerleus to Speaker Charles F. Crisp
upon that statesman's visit home for the
holidays. Captain Howell liu labored
nobly in advancement of Judge Criap'i
claims to the speakership all during tbe
contest, and able articles from Ills pow.
erful brain and his own personal Influ
ence have been unspalrlngly devoted to
the consumatlon of the Georgia repre
sentative's success. Amerleus will
warmly welcome the distinguished friend
of her favorite citizen, and will in some
way reciprocate by a cordial and heart
felt welcome, not only as a friend of
Crisp, but on his own aoeount, for few
men in Georgia have labored more faith
fully and successfully for the advance
ment of the Empire 8tsto, or have more
ardent admirers than Evan P, Howell.
HOBBID VANITY.
A Pittsburg woman stirred up quite a
sensation by her repeated attempts to
“shuffle off tbe mortal coil" with tbe aid
of a pistol. This spectacular melodrama
la evidently a well calculated plan to
evoke sympathy, since sho swears she
will kill herself if the case Is not with
drawn. Her moral sensibilities are ao
distorted that the forgets her shameleu
conduct to her kind husband and inno
cent baby In her desperate efforts to
shield her morbid vanity. She seems to
court tbe basest bypoorloy, provided it
glosses over her crooked career, and she
avoids the appearance of evil in her pub
lic or social capaolty.
Such sensational blppodroming is be
coming common now-a-days and only
the severest public censure will remedy
this alarming evil. Exposure to such
depraved souls Is regarded as disgrace
and their moral frailty that betrays them
Into the paths of vice will not sustain
them in an effort to face the conse
quences or live down their ulterior
effects.
Hoxt to good character I prize prlntors’
ink.—Peter Cooper.
In London Harrison's spread eagle amf
stilted message was not very warmly
lauded. The London Globe sarcasti
cally comments on the message, which It
cays, la “adroitly traoed| on oatoh vote
lines. In some passages spread eaglelsm
Irserred up hot; In others nervous Yan
keos are assured that the government
knows how to climb down, as In the
case of Chill and the Behring Sea dis
pute.’’ Lord Salisbury, the Globe adds,
need not bo much frightened at Presl
dent Harrison’s tremendous menace and
•expressions of ooncern at foreign en*
•croach monte Upon territories controlled
by American governments. Tbe paper
further says that If Venexuels passed
under American control the least that
could bo expected would be that the
suzerain power would forthwith guaran
tee the Venezuelan debt. The Globe dis
putes the statement mode In the message
that the prosperity of the United States
in entirely due to the McKinley bill. On
the contrary, It says the prosperity of
the country la duo to an exceptional
harvest there at a time when Europe Is
short of grain. The St. James Gaxetto
Hays that the most important point in the
document is that part wbieh has refer*
ence to the results of the McKinley
tariff. The figures presented, the Ga
zette declares, compare significantly
with British figures, which remain sta
tionary. It la all very well to say that
the Americans will presently discover
the* mistake In their fiscal policy, but,
perhaps, they may not. In tbe mean
time, the calculations of the supporters
of the McKinley bill are working ont
much better than any one in England
bad reason to expect.
Isn’t it about time to look about for
Christmas presents? Call and see what
an elegant line we have.

“ What’s that ? A new invention
which works all the year round?
Surprisin’-—these days are not like
the old times. Bleedin’ was the
only remedy them days. Bat now,
ns you sav, Dr. Pierce’s Golden
Medical Discovery is a true remedy
for the blood.”
It’s not like the sarsaparilla*, that
are said to be good for the blood
in MarcE, April and May. Tbe
“Golden Medical Discovery” works
equally well at all times, in all sea
sons and in all cases of blood-taints,
or humors, no matter what their
name or nature.
“Golden Medical Discovery” Is
the only Blood and Liver medicine,
sold by druggists, guaranteed to
benefit or cure in every cate, on fur
trial, or money paid for it will
bo promptly refunded. World 1
