AMERICUB, GA JUNE 13, 1906.
William Jennings Bryan will
surely lead the democracy next
time. Mark that prediction.
It is a question if even Missouri
will enthuse over Bryan when he
presents himself arm in arm with
Cleveland and Francis.
An Atlanta politician is called
“the talking ilower aud honey bee
of Georgia.’’ Bob Taylor aud his
fiddle will get no walkover.
Eighteen Germans landed in
Brunswick Monday to work in the
lumber mills there, aud 200 others
will arrive there this 'week.
A Canadian meat inspector re
ports that he has not seen a dis -
eased hog in two years. Perhaps
he should consult an oculist.
Most of the Cleveland and Park
er faction will support Bryan. He
will be the nominee in 1008, and
he will make a strong canvass.
And Willie Bryan says with
girlish coyness, “this is so sud
den.” Os course Uncle Will nev
er expected anything of the kind.
Democrats are right in suppos
ing that Bryan can get more votes
than any other man in the Demo
cratic and Populist parties com
bined .
Oakland has boomed its real es •
tate so hard that the San Francis
cans have been driven back to
their own town as the most promis
ing suburb.
Carelessness in packing houses
is not confined to the United
States. The noisy foreign critics
live in glass houses in the food pre
servative line.
Hundreds of letters are being
sent out to populists asking them
to write Judge J. K. Hines to
stand for the populist nomination
for governor.
Clark Howell certainly showed
up Hoke Smith in Atlanta Friday
night. Os all the political turn
coats, Hoke Smith' is the prize
winner,—Rome Tribune.
Many county conventions in
Ohio, Indiana and other states
have declared for Bryan. The
present outlook is that he will be
nominated on the first ballot in
1908.
Representative John M. Bank
head of Alabama, recently defeat
ed for renomiuaiiou by Captain
Hobson, has announced his candi
dacy for alternate United States
senator.
Missouri’s state convention has
demanded Bryan’s nomination in
1908. A large portion of Missou
ri’s county Democratic conventions
of 1900 had previously boomed
Bryan for the candidacy.
Gorman’s successor in the Sen
ate comes like a voice from a past
generation. He is three years
youger than Senator Pettus and
two months younger than Senator
Morgan, has an aristocratic name
and served in the Senate nearly
forty years ago.

MORE LABORERS ARE WANTED
Some very*notable speeches were
made at the meeting of manufac
turers at Warm Springs last week
on the subject of immigration.
The meeting was attended by man
ufacturers, farmers and railroad
men, all of whom w ant to get more
labor in the state. Thousands of
farmers say they can not get
enough help to make their crops.
Everywhere the factories complain
that they are short of help.
The railroads say that labor is
very scarce with them. When a
contractor gels a good force some
other contractor sends an agent
around and he lures off all that
he can get.
An Alabama man said that liis
company is putting up a building
which was to cost $200,000. On
account of the scarcity of labor the
cost will be $20,000 more than
that sum.
Frank P. Sargent, Commission
er-General of Immigration, came
down from Washington and made
an address. He said that Georgia
can get immigrants if she will go
at it in earnest.
Less than 2,500 immigrants have
come to Georgia in the last ten
years, while more than a million
came to the United States last
year. He advocated a state bu
reau, saying that Georgia ought to
publish iu foreign languages some
thing about resources and oppor
tunities and send this matter
abroad. He also favored a direct
steamship line between Savannah
aud some European port.
The only effort being made to
bring settlers and labor to Georgia
is the work done by an association
of a few railroad men. Col. Sa'm
C. Dunlap favored Mr. Sargent’s
ideas about a state bureau, and he
suggested that the work could be
carried on by the Commissioner of
Agriculture without creatiug a
new office.
President E. B. Gordon, of the
Georgia Industrial Association,es
timated that the idle looms in the
state due to labor shortage is equal
to twelve large mills shut down all
the time.
WHETHER MALADY OR FALaCY
Is there sujh a thing as hydro
phobia? Many medical authori
ties say not. The popular belief
that there is, is probab’y inerad
icable. Many dogs are killed in
the belief that they are mad when
as a matter of fact they are not.
The Washington Post asserts that
belief in hydrophobia is a “med
ieval superstition,” and that the
great neurologists have so de
clared. However, fear of mad
dogs and belief in madstones are
well nigh universal among those
who have no real knowledge of
the subject, while those vho are
skeptical are not disposed to take
chances, and the cry of “mad
dog” sends them scooting. An
eminent neurologist of Philadel
phia, Dr. Charles W. Dulles, says
the disease in human beings is
simply imaginary, and that cau
terization is a foolish method of
treating a supposed victim, as it
shuts the supposed poison in the
veins instead of drawing it out.
But people who believe in the ef
ficacy of the alleged madstone tell
marvelous tales of how it draws
the poison out and saves the patient
from violent death. It would be
iuteresting to know when, where
and how belief in the madstone
originated. Undoubtedly most
cases of so-called rabies are not
rabies. Almost any old remedy
would cure an imaginary disease.
,\:ipitleon’a Poison.
A curious detail of Napoleon Bona
parte's costume was Ihe religious care
with which lie kept hung around his
neck the little leather envelope, shaped
like a heart, which contained poisoD
that was to liberate him in case of ir
retrievable reverses of fortune. This
poison was prepared after a recipe that
Cabanais had given to Corvisart, and
after the year ISOS the emperor never
undertook a campaign without having
his little packet of poison.
Sunday Beer Costs His Dear.
Appleton, Wis., June 11—Rev. A. H.
Zechel, a representative of the Wis
consin Anti-Saloon League, was found
guilty of violating the Sunday labor
law by purchasing beer on the Sab
bath to .secure evidence that a sa
loon kec-per bad violated the Sunday
closing law, The jury was out half
an hour.
IS WORTH ITS WEIGHT IN GOLD
It is stated that American gin
seng brings sl3 to S3O g-old per
pound in Manchuria, or $1 to $2
per ounce according to quality and
stock on hand. Native cultivated
ginseng sells for from $2.50 to sl3
jier pound. Wild Manchurian
ginseng, such as is sent to the Em
peror of China, is valued at from
$650 to SBOO gold per pound. The
“sang diggers’ ’ of the woods and
mountains of Georgia have often
heard that in China “sang” is
worth its weight in silver. The
wild Manchurian article is worth
four to five times its w r eight in
gold.
Mr. Rockefeller, whose ship
diet was crackers and milk, has
arrived in the domain of King Ed

tea. No safe and sane mind would
want to be Croesus or Caesar on
such terms.
Devotion.
That was a roniarkabl.* instance oi

referred some time ago, wherein a hus
