THE HERALD'S CHOICE.
The Herald thinks the only available
timber for the presidential race can be
found In the West. It claims that the
grangers are suspicious of Wall street
and will not support a man who is In
sympathy with the gold barons. It
says:
“A gentleman who has had unusual
opportunities of feeling the pulse of the
South and West remarked to out Wash
ington correspondent:
The Herald • • • |« dead right in saying
that the Democrats with a Western candi
date will win next time. and with an East
ern man they cannot.
“The West will be a very important
factor in the next Presidential campaign.
That goes without saying. It may even
prove to be a decislvo factor. It is,
therefore, good politics, as it is also fair
play, for the Democrats to recognize
that fact aud govern themselves accord
ingly.
“Tho superstition that the Fast has
any superior rights iu the National Con
vention is fast becoming obsolete. There
was some reason, perhaps, for this arro
gance during the period of Western ado
lescence. The communities on the sea
coast were, until the last thirty years,
years, more firmly knitted, more solidly
conservative, and more productive of
executive capacity iu public office. The
West had a great country to develop,
was pulling itself together and gradually
getting iuto organized shape.
“But all that has passed iuto history.
It is a mere reminiscence, tho peculiarity
of a generation that is gone. Today the
great central portion of the country pro
duces statesman thoroughly equipped
by education and genius for the highest
positions within the gift of the people.
Thare are none better in any part of this
Republic. .‘Since it has vindicated its
right therefore to a prominent place in
our national councils, there is no reason
why its enterprise, prosperity and pat
riotism should not be cheerfully honored
by allowing it to name the Democratic
candidate for 1802. *
“More than this, the Democrats can’t
afford to offend tho people of the West
by thrusting down their throats anj
candidate who will make success uncer
tain. The business of the party is to
choose an available leader, who will not
be handicapped by entangling alliances
from the start. Nothing* could be more
unfortunate than to place in the field a
man, whether it is Mr. Hill or Mr. Cleve
land or Mr. Flower or any one else, who
is known to have close relations with a
local organization like Tammany Hall.
Unless this is avoided we shall have not
only an embittered canvass but an inev
itable defeat.
“Tammany has its sphere of useful
ness and it ought to be satisfied with its
present political possessions. It has
supreme control of this municipality,
with all the perquisites the term sug
gests. It has reached out for capture of
Albany. Decently its representatives
went to Washington and wire pulling at
the capital was begun in real earnost.
At least one candidate for the Speaker-
ship of the House has relied on Tam
many to secure his position.
“Against Tammany in the city and
State we have little to say. But the
Democratic party can do nothing worse
for itself than nominate a Tammany
candidate for standard bearer next year*
It would wreck every prospect of win
ning the battle which can certainly bo
won if the situation is properly handled
—as surely as tho crops have failed In
Russia, An anti-Tammany cry during
the next election would be as deadly as
the decree of fate, for there is a pro
found couviction amoug voters at a dis
tance from New York that Tammany
and patronage are convertible terras.
That impression, or, if you like it bet
ter, that prejudice, would influence a
sufficient number to throw the advantage
into the lap of the Republicans.
“It is poor policy to carry a needless
load in a race. When a party volun
tarily piuions itself it is folly to predict
a victory. And when a party has the
right of way conceded to it it desorves
defeat unless it uses every means which
honorable aud shrewd politics can de
vise.
“We therefore insist that the Demo
crats can elect their candidate in 1802
provided they choose a man who will
take his stand ou national issues pure
and simple, and not be hampered by
local embarrassments which will con
stantly call for explanation And apology.
Such a man may not be found in the
East, but he can certainly be found in
the West, and if the West gives him its
votes he will be elected.’’
“At last, 1 can cat a good square meal
without its distressing me!” was the
grateful exclamation of one whose appe
tite had been restored by the use of
Ayer’s Sarsaparilla 4 after years of dys
peptic misery. A teaspoonful of this
extract before each meal sharpens the
appetite.
ONLY THE CASH StWS IT.
A subscriber to .an Iowa paper being
in arrears and desiring to discontinue,
declined to take the paper from his
post office.
The publisher kept sending the paper
and brought suit as a test case, and the
United States Court Judge decided that
a subscriber cannot stop his paper until
he pays up. The publisher can continue
to send, and the delinquent is legally
liable until he pays up in full.
Henry Curtis Spalding claims that the
idea which Greathead utilized in bis pat
ents for tunneling really originated in
America.
THE SOUTH'S EXPORT BUSINESS.
The Manufacturers’ Record of Balti
more, of November 28, in reviewing the
industrial progress of the South, says:
“The development of the South’s for
eign trade, upon which the Manufactur
ers’ Record has so frequently commented,
and which was emphasized last weok in
the announcement of the inauguration of
four steamship lines from Newport
News to Europe, receives another illus
tration this week in the establishment of
five steamer lines from Norfolk to Lon
don, Liverpool, Glasgow, Havre and
Antwerp. The magnitude which this
business has already attained is shown
in the fact that the government report
of the value of foreign exports from tne
United States for October puts the total
from all Southern ports at $44,100,000,
against $58,800,000 from the rest of the
country, the shipments from the South
being over 42 per cent, ot the total for
the month. The tendency of Western
trade to seek foreign outlets through
Southern ports is being daily impressed
upon the country, and while Newport
News and Norfolk, with their regular
steamer lines, are making heavy ship
ments of grain, dour and provisions,
lumber, etc., the more southerly Atlan
tic ports ara also advancing rapidly, and
New Orleans and Galveston are hand-
link a big grain and general business,
tbe shipments of wheat from the former
city for tbe four months ended October
:>1 having been 0,200,000 bushels against
201,000 bushels for the corresponding
time last year. This growtii of tbe
South's foreign trade is destined to have
a wide-reaching influence upon the pros
perity and progress of this section.
Added to tho steady industrial advance
ment which is going on, it moans that
the manufacturing interests are to he
supplemented by great commercial cities
'with their immense traffic.
The laws of health are taught in the
schools; hut not in a way to no of much
practicable benefit, and are never illus
trated by living examples, which in
many cases might easily he done. If
some scholar, who had just contracted a
cold, was brought before the school, so
that all could hear tho dry, loud cough
and know its significance; see t.ie thin
white coating on the tongue, and later,
as tlie cold- developed, see the profuse
watery expectoration and thin watery
discharge from the nose, not one of them
would ever forget what the first symp
toms of a cold were The scholar should
then ho given Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy freely, that all might see that
oven a severe cold could he cured iu ono
or two days, or at least greatly miti
gated, when properly treated as soon as
the first symptoms appear. This remody
is famous for it’s cures of coughs, colds
and croup. It is made especially for
these diseases and is the most prompt
and most reliable medicine known for
tlic purpose. 50 cent bottles for sale by

The grand jury in Monroo Superior
Court, having served two weeks, was
about to be dismissed, when the counsel
in a case that had tried sprung the ques
tion as to the legality of the proceedings
because ono of tho grand jurymen was
no", a naturalized citizen. This week a
nmmbor of criminal cases were tried,
many bills were found, criminals con
victed and sentenced—all tho work of
the present grand jury. All aro now
pronounced null and void, under the dis
covery of tho inoligibility of the juror.
E. J. Mallory, tho grand juryman, is a
Canadian. Tho family have lived here
many years, but he failed to take out the
requisite papers. Judge Boynton or
dered tho grand jury hack for next Mon
day.—Monroe Advertiser.
Editor Triplett, of Tliomasvillo,
rises from the mastication of Thanks
giving turkey to make this after-dinner
speech: “Col. Livingston lost his influ
ence at the Indianapolis convention by
opposing the third party, but he has re
tained it in Georgia, by declaring him
self an organized democrat, And Geor
gia’s intiuonce will be woith more to
Col. Livingston than tho qiuencc' of all
the third party howlers, including Peffor,
Jerry Simpson, Ellington, Watson and
Sister Lease. O, yes, Col. Livingston
can dispense with the influence of these
people. He is solid so long as the Dem-
cratic party stands at his back. And
they arc standing there now.”
W. II. Wilder, Mayor of Albany, Ga.,
says lie lias suffered with Rheumatism
for liftccn years, and in that time lie
tried ail the so-called specifies, but to no
purpose. His grandson who was on the
B. A W. Railroad, finally got him a bot
tle of P. I*. P. The first bottlo of P. I*.
P. showed Its remarkable effects, and
after using a short time the rheumatism
disappeared, and lie writes he feels like
a new man, and takes pleasure in rec
ommending it to Rheumatic sufferers.
Misfortune runs in waves. Only a
few days ago Cyrus W. Field lost Ills
wife. Then his son fails in business
disastrously and disgracefully and goes
to an insane asylum; and now the ven
erable Cyrus W. Field himself is at
death’s door, while his daughter, Mrs.
Llndley, is almost hopelessly ill. This
is a sad ending of the family of one of
the most distinguished men ot this cen-
tnry, and everybody will sympathize
with him in his troubles.
“l use Ayer’s Cherry Pectoral freely
in my practice, and recommended it in
cases of Whooping Cough among chil
dren, having found it more certain to
cure that troublesome disease than any
other medicine I know of.”—No says Dr.
Bartlett of Concord, Mom.
WHY NOT AMERICUS?
The Hays Chair Company of Talla
poosa, Ga., will complete their plant
and be ready for business In a few
weeks. This will be tbe only concern
in the South to manufacture the finest
grades of chairs, upholstered, etc. The
Swift Powder and Cartridge Works, to
be established at Tallapoosa, will be the
largest concern of the kind in the United
States, employing about 1,000 hands
These are the things that make a
city grow and add to its wealth. Are
our people making any effort to bring
manufacturing concerns here? If so,
they are keeping remarkably quiet about
it. Yet it is only by such enterprises
that our city can continue to prosper.
Sufficient inducements can easily be
offered by Americas to various i idus-
tries, large and small, to bring them
here; for instance, the donation of sites
and land, etc.
Why should not the car factory talked
about last year be built? This is the
best place in the South, on account of
the proximity to pine timber, low
freights, etc., and the idle capital in the
Nortli could he brought here for such
an investment if our people would go to
work.
Woed-working plants of various sorts
could lie located here to advantage.
Buckets, tubs, barrels, hubs and spokes,
ciiairs, clothes pins, shoe pegs, spools,
plows, axe and broom handles and other
tilings too numerous to mention can bo
manufactured as cheaply aud profitably
here as anywhere else in the country.
Then why should not a systematic effort
bo made to advertise our advantages and
bring manufacturers here? “Heaven
helps those who help themselves;” now
is a grand time to begin to do our part.
AT THE WORLD'S FAIR.
The Georgia editors meet in Macon
to-morrow to put Georgia in shape to be
represented at the World’s Fair. What
the Legislature couldn’t, do the editors
can.
The Times-Recorder hereby enters
J. F. Ross for Sumter county's part of
the exhibit, aud if every county will do
as well as Sumter, Georgia will have
nothing to he ashamed of at the World's
Fair, appropriation or no appropriation.
If overy one of the 1:17 counties in Geor
gia had a Ross, and a Ross exhibit,
couldn’t the Georgia editors paralyze
the universal world at Chicago with the
aggregation?
If tho farmers of Georgia will furnish
the backbone, the editors will supply
the hurrah; and such a combination will
he hound to win over anything the effete
East or tho wild and woolly West can
show.
At a recent callod meeting of the’ city
council in Brunswick, resolutions of ac
ceptance of Colonel Goodpear’s proposi
tion to deepen Brunswick’s ocean bar to
twenty-five foot within ton months, were
passed unanimously. Shortly after tho
proposition was accepted, Colonel Good
year received telegraphic offers of fi
nancial support from Barber A Swan,
capitalists of Utica, N. Y., and the
Brunswick Investment Company. Col
onel Goodyear asks as a remuneration
for ids work, if successful, 1,300 feet of
water tront that is now practically val
ueless, because of inaccessibility, and a
small piece of marsh land. If not suc
cessful ho will not accept or bo given
any tiling. Besides the offers of financial
aid every ownor of water front and land
near or adjacent to the front asked for,
havo voluntarily donated ono-teuth of
thoir property to Colonel Goodyear, if
his scheme succeeds.
Rome, Ga., has had a quarter of a mil
lion dollar cotton fire. If about a quar
ter of the crop could bo burnt up, tho
balance would bring two cents per pound
more. Experience is a bitter teacher,
but it looks as if nothing short of bank
ruptcy will teach the cotton planters
that over-production Is as bad as no pro
duction at all in its results. Cotton is
now at prices in New York that are
bolow tho "cost of production, and the
prospect for an early advance don’t soem
good.
If the staid and dignified .Savannah
Nows expects to maintain itself as the
representative of that city’s thrift aud
progress it will have to move up lively
in the procession or the Press will usurp
its functions. Editor Stovall is making
ills paper a revelation in journalism to
the people of that erstwhile slow city;
and if Savannali will do as much for the
Press as It will do for Savannah great
mutual benetlt will result.
It is reported that Ben Butler is set

WOMAN!
A strange study, this. A deep sea,
iuto whose depths one can peer and—
only peer. A fathomless mystery, we
know this: To man she is a blessing or
a curse. There is nothing negative about
woman. Be she an angel ministrant or
an opposite, woman's potentialities are
active, constant and enduring. She lifts
or she drags down. She is light, sun
shine, cheer, comfort, inspiration, or
she is gloom, despair, hopelessness and
cowardice.
Her hand is the hand of succor or the
hand of smiting power. Her voice is
sweeter than that of siren’s or it Is
harsher than the rifted lute. At her
shrine men worship, or turn away oft in
pity, oft in anger
At the last, woman is queen. She rules
where money, ambition, place and power
fail to win the coveted goal. Her word
is tho Anal law; from her sentence at the
last there is no appeal; or if appeal be
made there is no reversal.
About woman strong men weave gar
lands of love and on her head place cor
onets of devotion. For her sako the
knight poises his lance and savage meets
death with a smilo on liis lips. In every
clime woman is queen, and no light of
sun or sparkle of star is so radiant as
the light and sparkle of woman's eyes.
On woman God’s tenderest benedic
tions rest; to her come Heaven’s sweet
est. gifts.
She is our mother, sister, wife!—Trib-
une-of-Rome.
CORDELE REVIEWED
Cordele, Ga., November 30.—[gp,.
cial.]—Mr. Julius B. Shipp died at hij
home in this city last night at 10:30
o’clock. His death was not unexpected
as he has suffered some time with an
abscess on the lungs and there was no
hope for his recovery.
He was a brother of Col. j, e. ^
Shipp, Col. C. J. Shipp, Mr. w. y-
Shipp and Dr. G. W. Shipp of this city
He leaves a wife and nine children, foui
boys and live girls. He was forty-t* 0
years of age. He will be remembered in
Americus as one of the Arm of Shipp
Bros., who did business in that city sev!
eral years ago.
He was a consistent member of the
Methodist church, a man greatly loved
by bis friends and if be had an enemy
he did not know it.
His remains will be buried here with
Masonic honors at 10 o'clock to-morrow
morning.
The annual session of the South Geor.
gia Conference will convene here Wed
nesday morning. The presiding elders
and preachers who have examinations to
stand are already arriving. The confer
ence promises to be an interesting occa
sion.
The Flow of It.
Ilow poor, how rich, how abject, how
august, how complicated, how wonder
ful is man: and it might be added, how
“more so” is woman. With her pecu
liarly delicate and intense organization,
she is the superlative degree of man.
Even in disoases she excels him, having
many that he has not. She has, liow-
ever," found out a grand remedial agent
for tlie cure of her diseases, in Dr
Pierce’s Favorite Prescription; a medi
cine suited to her nature, made for the
express cure of those diseases which af
fect her. It is especially effective in all
weaknesses incidental to motherdood,
while it is also a potent restorative tonic
for the feeble and debilitated generally.

glish language the political term “to

and will he applied to tlie disappearance
of hank assots after the manner of the

Royal Baking Powder
Leads All.
“ The Royal Baking Powder is absolutely pure,'
for I have so found it in many tests, made both for
them and the U. S. Government. The Royal Bak
ing Powder is undoubtedly the purest and most
reliable Baking Powder offered to the public.
“HENRY A. MOTT, PH. D.”
Late Chemist for U S. Government.
“All chemical tests to which I have submitted it
have proved the Royal Baking Powder perfectly
healthful and free from every deleterious substance.
It is purest in quality and highest in strength of
any Baking Powder of which I have knowledge.
“WM. McMURTRIE, E. M., PH. D.”
Late Chemist-in-chief U. S. Deft of Agriculture,
Washington, D. C.
“The strength of the Royal is shown to be 23 per
cent, greater than any other.
“ As a result of my investigations I find the Royal
Baking Powder far superior to the others. It is pure,
contains none but wholesome ingredients, and is of
greatest strength.
“F. X. VALADE,
“Public Analyst, Ontario, Dominion of Canada."
The latest investigations by the United States
and Canadian Governments show the Royal Bak
ing Powder superior to all others in leavening
strength.
Statements by other manufacturers to the con
trary have been declared by the official authorities
falsifications of the official reports.
