HHOne of the mcst important ques |B>ns before the present Legislature El the school question. We should Iwier have said the question of ■c3Jng fcue children in Georgia. T® farmers Alhance has taken advanced upon this subject, and the expects something to be done. Wm G. A Nvmnallj. presideht of Htercer University has already ap- Heai-eiß before the educational com |Bi.tteeT)f the House.

He proposes to have far more done by these district commissioners and save at least ten thousand dollars yearly to the state. The office of {county school com missioner has proven a very dear one to the people, and we J hink Dr. Nunnallys* suggestion a most exctll ent one. He also proposes to take the same amount of money spent by the state and insure an eight months school instead of three months, as hereto fore. Dr Nunnally has studied the question of education, and had more means of penetrating the subject for the past year, than most any man in the state. He has been all over the state, mixing with the people and seeing from actual contact with them what is needed. We shall have more to say later. Now that the elections by the Legislature are all over, that body can settle down to work, and we doubt not but it will. Indications now point^ to Blaine as the republican candidate for Pre sident 1892 The young men of Macon have be come interested municipal lace, and have to put out a ticket. It has been reported that Senator Ingalls will become editor of the New Yor%Sun, with Editor Dana. It will be a congenial pair. The depopulation of the country and womans suffrage are two ques tions of the greateat importance to* our southern people. The Chattahooßee Valley Expo sition at Columbus was said Mto be an excellent show, probably tne best the state has had this year. V - Hon. Roger Q. Mills, the great tariff leader says the result of the recent election is simply a rebuke to the Republican party and its policy. James Marshall a young man was a few days ago for the pock ets of Ike to Hon. William E. just eleected Governor of Massachusetts, is being talked of as a presidential possibility, but the country wants jj^^Cleveland. Mr. ChrJlie Jones, a brother of the Rev.

Congressman Crisp is mentioned in compajwon with such recognized leaders af Wilson, Russell Pattison and others. Read the extract from the Philadelphia Record. If the farmers of Georgia would get out of debt, and depend upon their work only for a living them would be more independence througM out the country. „ M r £ The T.

P- Morton, lately elected Y. P. of the U. S. Justice Fuller refused to at- Thurman banquet, because he would have some polici cal bearing. He proposed to keep the highest court in the U.

It has created a great deal of interest. Some say that feature will certainly compromise the temperance cause. While others are said to be enthusiastic supporters of the meas urs NEWS JOTTINGS.

' ‘•THE WORLDS DESIRE.” The latest novel of Rider Haggard has Ulysses for its hero, who is car ried on a voyage into Egypt, and Helen of Try is “The Worlds De sire,” who gives natoe to the book. The scene is laid at lhe time the Is raelites were prep Ming for their exodus, end their departure and the overwhelming of Pharaoh’s hosts in the pursuit of them are among th e incidents of the story. THE MONEY MARKET. It is known that the money mar ket has been uneasy for some time, promising at times a money panic. While the financial situation is not yet what the country would desire, the crisis has doubtless been pass - ed. The cause of the pressure is said to have been caused by the english investments in Argentine Republic* and other South American booms. These booms sunk vast treasures of English investors. The banks of London wex*e disturbed and they af fected the money market of the world It is stated that a syndicate of the Ro thschilds went to the support of the great banking house of Baring Bros, and averted a collapse. It is thought now that the money market will be come <^sy. W It is evident to the observant mind Riat those who framed the state con stitution did not foresee the status of a canvass for Ufcited States Sena tor before the Legislature. It was unfortunate indeed that all elec tions had not been set on the heal of organizing the two houses. Just as soon as the two houses are organiz - ed there should follow the election of every other officer. The time consumed between the opening of the session and the election of a sen ator is almost thrown away. And beside the lost time there is too much opportunity of log rolling and engen dering bitter feelings. Comparatively nothing has been done so far, though the body has been in session two weeks. HE IS THE MAN. It is a condign and not a theory. The tariff is a tax. And the ueople know it. Massachusetts koows it and sends new Democratic Congress men to vote. Missouri knows it and replaces McKinley Republicans with tariff reform Democrats. Ne braska knows it. Maryland turns down her Republicans and puts in six straight Oemocrats. New York knows it and so does Ohio. Kansas has knowledge and so has Minnesota. There is a typical American who told the country the truth because it was his duty. When he might have in sured his return to the White House by silence he spoke. Manfully he met the purchased by the bribes of wmec 1 lobbyists, and calm ly he placed his trust in the sober tnought of the people. Yesterday’s election was the triumph of a vitali zed püblic triumph is the vindication of Grover Cleveland's courage and patriotism. Tariff reform and free elections have been approved. They must have a personal representative for 1892. The public opinion which has gone back to the constitution of the fath ers must have a leader about whom there is no doubt and in whom there is no deviation. The typical Ameri can is the typical Democrat of the generations which has before it the work of crushing the upstairs of plutocracy. America for Americans and not for a special class. Grover Cleveland is the only leader the Americans will have who voted yes terday a slpendid Democratic majori ty into the House of Representatives. These Americans are business meD farmers, laboring and professional men. Cleveland and tariff reform are together on their lips. The stalwart youth of the nation will consent to b%led by no other. They who voted for Russell in Massachusetts, for Tarsney in MiAouri and tor Robin son in Kansas wished they were also voting for Cleveland. The tariff is a tax. Grover Cleveland said it and the people know it. Cloveland and a a tariff reform in 1892.* A business administration, a business tariff and free elections.— Times. THE SOUTH PROSPERS. The Manufacturers Record speak ing of the financial condition of the Country, contains the following about the situation in the south: She excitement in Wall Street, if long continued, would necessarily have an injurious influence upon all linas of business in all sections of the country, but as trade and manufac turing interests everywhere are pros perous, it is not probable that the stock jobbing operations of New York will have more than a tempor ary effect upon general business. Un der any circumstAces, though, the south is in a better position to stand even a panic than any other section. It has gathered big crops that will aggregate in value for the year near ly $1,000,000,000, its cotton alone,, including the seed, counting up this 1 i year between $450,000,000 and $500,000,000, every dollar of which it will draw from the north and Europe. Its farmers are practically out of debt, and many of them have a good surplus; its manufacturing interests are prosperous, aud its rail roads are crowded with freight traffic. The whole south is advancing rapid ly and if dependent its own financial resources could stand the strain far better than the west. A MINISTER’S V CURE. A MINISTER AND HIS LITTLE BOY CURED OBSTINATE SKIN DISEASES BY THE Cu ticura Remedies. Praises them in THE PULPIT, HOME. AND IN THE STREET. CURED BY CUTI. CURA. For about thirteen years I 112% been troubled with eczema or some other cu taneous disease which all remedies fail ed to cure. Hearing of the Cuticura Re medies, I resjJved to give thorn a trial. 1 followed directions carefully, and it affords me much pleasure to say that before using two boxes of the Cuticura, I four cakes of Cuticura Soap, and one bottle of Cuticura Resolvent, I was en tirety cured. In addition to my own case, my baby boy, then about five months old, was suffering with what I supposed to be the same disease as mine, to snch an extent that his head was coated over with a sofid scab, from which there was a constant flow of pus which was sickening to look upon,’ be sides two large tumor-like kernels on the back of his bead. Thanks to your won derful Cuticura Remedies, his scalp is nerfectlv, well, and the kernels have been scattered so that therdfs only one little place by his left ear, and that is healing nicety. Instead of a coating of scabs he lias a fine coat of hair, much better than that which was destroyed by the disease. I would that the whole world of sufferers from skin and blood dises sos knew %ie value of your Cuti cu"a Remedies as I do. They are worth ten times the price which they are sold. I have never%;ed any other toilet soap in my house Slice I * bought the first cake of your Cuticura Soap. I would be inhuman, as well as ungrateful should I fail to speak well of and re commend them to every sufferer I have spoken of them, and shall continue to speak of them from the pulpit, in the homes, and in the streets. Praying that you may Jive long, and do others the same amount of good you have done me and my child, I remain, yours gratefully (Rev.) C. M. MANNING, Box 28, ac worth, Ga. Cuticura Remedies.

COLLIER, Ur Laiies Fine Frees Goods! A fact worth knowing is that blood diseases which all other medicines fail to cure yield 'slowly but surely to the blood cleansing properties of P. P. P. (Prickly Ash, Poke Root and Potassium. Many lettars are received by the P. P. P. Cos. from patients, saying they had used such and such a blood purifier and sarsaparillas, mentioning their names and stating they did no good, and they did not get well un til P. P. P. (Prickly Ash, Poke Root and Potassium) was tried. These letters we started to publish, when the various manufacturers wrote us fearful letters, and we discontinued same, but P. P. P. (Prickly Ash, Poke Root and Potassium) is trium phant on every occasion, and has made a host of friends in cures of Syphilis, Rheumatism, Scrofula, Blood Poison, Dyspepsia, Malaria and Female Complaints. People wonder when they find how rapidly health is restored by taking P. P. P. (Prickly Ash, Poke Root and Potassium). The reason is simple, as it is a powerful combina tion of the roots and herbs of the home woods. THIS SPACE IS FOR Northwestern Mutual Life Insurance Co s S. Murphey Special Agt, Middle Georgia.
