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. •••• ■ 1 " i 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. James Flicker a Bro. “ 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.
