The % Policy of Greed.
Have we no message of peace for
the world? Undoubtedly we have.
The nation that has done most for
peace and humanity has not changed
its character. The people, deceived
by craft, cupidity and mendacity,
rushed into war, partly because their
wrath was aroused by what they re
garded as the mu r der of the sailors
of the Maine, and partly because their
humane susceptibilities were appealed
to by the tales which came to them
of the cruelties practiced by the Span
iards upon the peaceful inhabitants of
Cuba. The nature of the American
people has not changed, and the time
is coming when the wretched jxrlicy
of greed will be revealed to them in
all its hideousness, and then there
7
may be an uprising which will be
greatly regre’ted by those who have
invited it. Their very attitude in the j
war, the motives that are now sway-;
ing the minds of many who want to i
keep the Philippines, will some day
lead them to overthrow the system '
which has succeeded in turning the !
great powers of the governmeut to the
task of promoting private interests
and adding to personal gain.—Ex.

A Story of the Pope.
“There is a story now going the
rounds ot clerical society which has
the merit of being true,’’ says the
Rome correspondent of the Pall Mall
Gazette. “Leo XIII, with all his
virtues, has, like all mortals, also his
small defects, one of which, as is well
known, is closeness with regard to
money matters. Some members of
his family cannot, however be accused
of this trait, and have consequently
got into trouble. One of these, who
stands very near the Pontiff, when
very near the end of his resources
remembered that Leo XIII not long
ago had sold a vineyard belonging to
the family in common without ever
speaking of dividing the proceeds.
The young man, spurred on by ne
cessity, took his courage in both
hands and went to the Pontiff. Af
ter much circumlocution he arrived
at the point ot asking, for what he
considered his share. ‘Share!’ ex
claimed the Pope, with benevolence.
‘My son, have you not been to the
church of the Stigmata? Have you
you not seen the family chapel, the
the paintings, the portraits of your
grandmother and your two uncles,
and the of St. Camile, your
own patron, and St. Sylvia, the pa
tron of your grandmother? There,
my son, is where your share has
gone.”
Who is to Blame.
Kidney trouble has become so
prevalent that it is not uncommon
for a child to Ibe born afflicted with
weak kidneys.
If the child urinates too often, if
the urine- scalds the flesh, or if, when
the child reaches an age when it
should be able to control the passage,
and it is yet afflicted with bed-wet
ting, depend upon it, the cause of
the difficulty is kidney trouble, and
the first step should be toward the
treatment of these important organs.
This unpleasant trouble is due to a
diseased condition -of the kidneys and
bladder and not tG a habit as most
people suppose.
If the adult has rheumatism; pain
or dull ache in tfc’- back; if the water
passes in irregulu. quantities; or at
irregular intervals or has a bad odor;
if it stains the linen or vessel the col
or of rust; if the feet swell; if there
are puffy or dark circles under the
eyes: your kidneys are the cause and
need doctoring. Treatment of some
diseases may be delayed without dan
ger, but not so with kidney disease.

One Minute Cougfi Cure, curet
Thai u whet it was ovule tor.
GOOD RoftDs.
In this day of multiplied fence
straddlers it is quite encouraging to
find men like Brothers Whittle and
Bush, who are ready to express them
selves openly on issues of vital impor
tance to our country. But if Mr.
Bush is right in his doctrine of the
preservation of these hill barriers in
our public highways—showing them
to be so restful to our burden draw
ing mules, then he should have pre
ferred serious charges against our
grand jurors in the nature of “cruelty
to animals” lor not having huge
mounds built in every Ifcvel stretch of
road in our county.
Mr. Bush's experience taught him
that “two good mules could pull two
thousand pounds over the hills of
which we complained.'' If the little
North Georgia bovine, that played
such a lively part in making Joe
Browrf famous, had weighed even as
much as “256 lbs. - ’ he could have
drawn a “6 ton wagon" along “a lev
el macadamized road" as easily as he
carried the 'master who followed him
into fame. But for grand-jury antag
onism the level hill through Potato
Creek swamp would have been duly
macadamized with small broken
stones and the public generally, as
well as Mr. B.’s teamster who said
the work there “wasn’t worth any
thing,” would have been materially
benefitted in their traveling through
the past wet season and in the future.
Mr. Whittle draws attention to the
question of the legality of the work.
If we are not misinformed some of
Pike’s grand juries in the past have
recommended improvements to be
made at both places that grading was
done. Petitioners to the number of
600 for Mitchell hill and something
like 100 for Potato Creek swamp,
were presented to the board ot road
and revenues, but even with this
pressure the county attorney was
consulted and under Ins advice the
work was done. Read the following
from our pamphletized road laws,
1 Chap. 3, Section 87: “The Ordina
‘ ries (ißoard of roads and revenues) of
I the several counties have authority:—
! To appoint the places for the erec
j tion of public bridges, county ferries,
1 turnpikes and causeways and to make
I suitable provision for their erection
i and repairs by letting them out to
| the lowest bidder, hiring hands, or in
j any other way that may be for the
public good and agreeable to law-.”
Some of our laws are more or less
conflicting, and Section go puts a
different face on the same proposi
tion, while Section 91, which treats
of the penalty for non-compliance by
Board R. & R., collapses on the
term “contract.”
Here are different shades of law
that admit of different constructions,
but if the grand juries acting under
this phase of our laws insist that they
are right, what was the matter with
our county attorney who gets or got
fifty dollars a year for legal advice,
was he ignorant, guilty ot “mal-prac
tice,” or what?
Pike county was the client of said
attorney and clients are “entitled to
redress” from their attorneys “for un
skillful advice.” (Ga. Code 1895,
Section 4,420.) Clearly then the
county grand jury should look to said
attorney for “redress.” The county
was unmistakably the “client” in
above instance—he was in the coun
ty’s employ and paid out of the coun
.ty treasury. If our hill-grading was
done under his “legal advice,” he is
legally responsible to the county—
his client— for “unskillful advice”—
for misapplication of the law. And
the board of R. & R. would be re
sponsible, only, for any extravagance
it might have exercised in the prov
ince of this legal advice of our county
.attorney.
We don't remember to have heard
any party say he would have “con
tracted” for the work at less than it
cost the county. Ought not the
grand jury, who so strenuously op
pose spending public money for such
public benefit as hill grading, have
been more scrupulous about the tax
ation of the $190,000 they found
short on last year's tax digest? At
last year's tax rate. sir.2o, state and
county, under our “double-tax” law
for “unreturned’' property, the
amount would have reached $4,446.
00. Pike’s pro rata would have been
two thousand and ninety dollars. We
beg to refer Bro Bush, right along
here, to his doctrine of “good econo
my.” If the grand jury that found
this large, illegal deficit did not take,
or have taken proper legal steps for
collecting this money—these taxes
due fhe-state and county—ought they
not to be held responsible for it by
the people of the state and county
through the next grand jury? We are
simply asking for information in the
interest of justice along here.
When a legal organization is
clothed with as much authority as
are our grand juries, who are sup
posed to hold eve r y citizen in the
county, our county-paid attorneys
not accepted, responsible to the law,
if there is not, we ask, a law to hold
them responsible, ought there not to
be 013,e? 0 Even the president of the
United States is subject to impeach-
THREE HAPPY WOMEN
Relieved of Periodic Pain and Backache.
“Before using Lydia E. Pinkham’s
Vegetable Compound, my health was
being gradually undermined. I suf
fered untold agony from painful men
struation, backache, pain on top of my
head, and ovarian trouble. The com
pound entirely cured me. — Mrs.
Georoie IVass, 923 Bank St., Cincin
nati, 0.
“ For years I had suffered with pain
ful menstruation every month. One
day a little book of Mrs. Pinkham's
was thrown into my house, and I
sat right down and read it. I then
got some of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vege
table Compound and Liver Pills. 1
can heartily say that to-day I feel like
anew woman; my monthly suffering
is a thing of the past. I shall always
praise the Vegetable Compound for
what it has done for me.— Mrs. Mar
garet Anderson, 33 Lisbon St.,
Lewiston, Me.
‘'Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound has cured me of painful men
struation and backache, The agony
I suffered during menstruation nearly
drove me wild. Now this is all over,
thanks to Mrs. Pinkham’s medicine and
advice."— Mrs. Carrie V. Williams,
South Mills, N. C.
The great volume of testimony
proves conclusively that Lydia E.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound is a
safe, sure, and almost infallible rem
edy incases of irregularity, suppressed,
excessive, or painful monthly periods
rnent.
If the grand jury made a find of
$4,446.00 tax money and did not
have it turned into the public treasu
ry, why should they not be held le
gally and morally responsible to the
loyal tax payers of Pike county? Bro.
Whittle, in his answer to us, went so
far as to say that the grand jury was
under an oath to act without “fear or
favor.” We have lived in the flesh a
good while and know it is hard to be
consistent, bill in the interest of “lair
play” we beg to ask this question:
Which hurts us the most, $1,200.00
put in hill grading on public high
ways, or $4,446.00 conceded to tax
dodgers? We sprung one issue with
the present Board 12, and pushed it
so vigorously that the county attor
ney was called in to advise in the
matter and he endorsed our construc
tion on the law involved and said
board yielded readily to the point. If
the attorney in question was em
ployed simply in behalf of the board
and paid for by them,, then they
would constitute his client and they
would have to look to him for “re
dress” in case of “unskillful advice.”
Our wide tired wheel proposition
is synopsized in this: Let the coun
ty pay for extraordina, y work and
some bridge lumber on public roads
in wide tired wheels instead of cash.

Slander.
What gross injustice is often done
by slander. And this word comprises
a multitude of sins from idle gossip
of harmless intent up to malicious
detraction of one’s character. Alas!
how much mischief is hidden beneath
those baneful words, “they say.” And
who are “they?” The cowled monks,
the hooded friars, who glide with
shrouded faces in the procession of
life, muttering in an unknown tongue
words of mysterious import? Who
are “the) ?" The midnight assassins
ot reputation, who lurk in the by
lanes of society, with dagger tongues,
sharpened by invention and malice,
to draw the blood of innocence, and,
hyena-like, banquet on the dead.
Who are “they?” “They are a mul
titude whom no man can number,”
searching for victims ig every city,
town and village, wherever the heart
of humanity throbs and the ashes of
mortality find rest. Skulkers, cow
ards. Give us the bold brigand who
thunders along the highways with
flashing weapons that cut sunshines
as well as shades, give 11s the pirate
who unfurls the black flag, emblems
of his terrible trade, and show the
plank which your doomed feet must
tread; but save us from the “they say
ers” of society, whose knives are hid
den in a velvet sheath, whose bridge
is woven with flowers, and who spread
with invisible poison even*the spotless
whiteness of the winding sheet. Of
all such enemies beware.

It Was a Genuine Coin.
The cashier in the registry de
partment at the postoffice is a very
much indignant man, all because of
the fact that some of the clerks have
been using him as the butt of a prac
tical joke, says the St. Paul’s Globe.
Somy ingenious servant of Uncle Sam
having more time than he knew what
to do with, conceived the idea of
coating a quarter with a tin foil,
which he proceeded to do so ilex
terously that the tin foil looked as if
made on the coin. Then another
young man took the quarter around
to the registry window and shoved it
in for change.
“What is this ?” inquired the cash
ier as he rung the coin and listened
to the fiat sound it gave out.
“It’s perfectly genuine,” declared
tho joker.
Then an argument ensued. The
jokist refused to take back the coin,
and the cashier insisted it was coun
terfeit. Finally he threatened to re
fer the matter to Capt. Lawrence of
the secret service, and became so
positive that a trifling wager was laid
on the genuiness of the disputed
quarter.
After the stakes were in safe hands
the joker whittled off the tin foil with
a jien knife, and now the cashier is
looking for a chance to get even.

possessed from his earliest infancy,
and the relics which Col. Yillers
brought back from South Africa, the

Marriage a Serious Vocation.
“A woman who is blessed with
good sense does not consider at the
start that marriage is a role to be
skillfully and successfully enacted, or
a grand of which she is to be
the admired and indulged centre or a
mere incident in a life crowded with
other activities,” writes Helen Wat
terson Moody in the March Ladies*
Home Journal. “She knows that
marriage is a serious and steady vo
cation, and that the true wife is one
who enters marriage not thinking
how much she can get out of it, but
how much she can put into it. It is
this larger conception of marriage
which makes women dwell by their
own firesides in sweet content with
what is commonly called the ‘narrow
limits of home/knowing well that no
true home is narrow, since it must
give cover to ‘the whole primal mys
teries of life—food, raiment and work
to earn them withal: love and mar
riage, birth and death, right-doing
and wrong-doing- -all these common
places of humanity which- are most
divine because they "Ss most com
