There is only one way to euro deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an inflamed con
dition ol the rauciious tinging of the*
Eustachian Tube. When this tube
gets inflamed you have a rumbling
sound or imperfect hearing, and when
it is entirely closed, Deafness is the re
sult, and unless the influmatiou can ho
taken out and this tube restored to its
uorrnal condition, hearing will be des
troyed forever ; nine esse* out of ten
are oaused by catsrrb, which is nothing
hut an inflamed condition of the mucu
ous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of Deafness (caused bv
catarrh) that we cannot cure by taking
Hall’s Catarrh Cure. Send for circu

M«. li. F. Nisbkt, the Farmer’s A 1
liance candidate for commissioner of
Agriculture is making it exceedingly
warm for commissioner Heudersou.
He has shown that Mr. Heuderson has
grossly missuaged the department, and
tin* ollices uuder him are all tilled by
his relatives. Mr. Henderson belongs
to the Capitol Cliques, of whom there
aie yet other scabs of the same ilk that
need peeling off. Let the people put
iu houest respectful democrats in the
office. Outside of Mr. Henderson Mr.
Tip Harrison needs turning a drift

Everybody Kasws,
That at this season the blood is fill
ed with impurities, the accumulation of
months of close uonfinement iu poorly
ventilated stores, workshops and tene
ments. All these impurities aud every
trace of scrofula, salt rheum, or other
dise.se may be expelled by taking
Hood’s Sarsaparilla, the best blood pu
rifier ever produced. It is the only
medicine of which “100 doses ona dol
lar” is true. i m
Tun time is at baud wheu “the hay
j seed socialist” is a power iu the land.
The legislation for fifty years or more
liaFbeen for the beuelii of the classes
against the masses, but this thing will
change, aud that quickly. The labor
ing people will send U. 8. senators and
congressmen to congress, who are
fresh from the people.
Impure Hlood is the primary cause
of the majority of diseases to which the
human family is subject. The blood
m passing through the system visits
every portion of the body—if pure,
carrying strength aud vitality ; if im
pure. disease aud death. Blood poison
is most dangerous. Prick'y Ash Hit
ters will rentier the last' impossible,
ami will regulate the system so that
health will be a sure result.
1 kesident L. F. Livings'on would
rather go to congress than be governor.
Well, we need just such a man in Con
gress.
11 kkk is a step 10 the light dtn-e
--tion. Clayton county ha* built a num
ber of new, sulisttntial justice court
houses. Henry eddnty shop hi do • the
same thing. The people in the lever
al districts pay their money for cjunty
purposes, then why should the county
not give each district a suitable comt
house for the transaction of business.
There is a lot of money spent for worse
purposes!
‘•Five years ago I had a constant
cough, night sweats, was greatly reduc

The Clayton County Alliance met at
Flat ltock, on Friday, April 4th. Hon.
W. L. Peek, of Rockdale, was present
aud made a speech. He is a good talk
er, and explained the proposed sub
tieasury plan, full speeches were also
made by the piesideut of Fulton Coun
ty Alliance, Mr. W. H. Ilougess, of Al
liance Quarterly, aud Mr. Daniel, of
the .Southern Alliance Farmer. The
next meeting will be held at the Rock.
Politics are beginuig to be discussed
now. We hear of several probable
candidates. Mr. Joel D. Lee is men
tioned for State Senator with several
probabilities, Mr. A. P. Adamsou, sec
retary of Clayton county Alliance, is
spoken of for representative. For
congress we hear of no candidates, un
less we may couut Judge Stewart as
one.
Messrs. W. C. & J. H. Estes are
now shipping meal to several merchants
on khe E T. V. &. G. R. R., with theii
names neatly stamped on the sacks.
The writer passed safely his nine
teenth birth day last Monday March
31st. In looking back over the blur
red pages that record our past life, we
can see nothing that could not have
been doue better, and a great many
things that could not have been done
worse. It is the experience of most
of us. But if we find our past hag
been unsatisfactory, we have the future
before us to improve upon. We are
all in a measure the architects of our
futures and we should strive to build
them to “plumb the line.”
We think that Brother Muggins
should have thought twice before muk
ing that ungracious remark about
Jouesboro. He should remember that
ouce upon a time, when Griffin was
even more of a jug city than it is now.
Jonesboro was one of her best custom
ers. We have to admit, however, that
Jouesboro is not as blooming and pros
perous as she once wag, but she is
still hieathing, snd is the home of a
happy aud and contented f eople. I
fear, Brother Muggins that you have
ruined your congiessioal prospects by
this act of indiserttion.
The young people enjoyed a musical
entertaiumeut at the residence of Mr.
N. (J. Adamson’s last Saturday uight.
The farmers are up and a great
many ahead with their farm work.
Some have planted cotton.
Bill Lstei is undoubtedly growing
fat.
Still we have no debate.
1 here has been a mad dog scare
around here for some time. One boy
was bitten by a mad dog iu the neigh
borhood of Mt. Zion.
We have a most flourishing Sunday
School at the rock. More interest is
shown, anil the attendance is much
larger than ever before. The su|ierin
tendant his assistants and the cotupe
tent corps of teachers, take great pride
iu the performance of their duties, and
are laboring to make the Sabbath
School. The music is also especially
good, as the young people take the
greatest of pride and delight iu it.
Mr. John S. Gradeii aud family and
Mr. James Giaden, of Atlanta, was
down at this place Sunday.
W e still have a flourishing school at
Hickory Flat, presided over by Miss
Julia Caldwell.
The latest fad is an April fool draw
iug. There was one at the residence
of Mr. James J. Waggoner’s on the
4th. The writer drew one without
buying a single chance. \V e always
were lucky, and very much valued by
the female population. We can coti
eeive of nothing better than this. If a
fellow is popular annmg the ladies, he
can roost high and crook his finger at
the mad crowd. W e are i.ot ex
actly a female suffragist, but we wouia
like to receive one ballot cast by a fe
male. Modesty prevents me mention
ing what
Ihe Kock Alliance has adopted res-!
olntious, asking all classes, whether or
not members of the Alliance, to aid
them iu the fight against jute bagging 1
trust, and declaring in unmistakable
teims that we will use cotton bagging,
and that we will pntronixe no ginner
that furnishes oi wraps any cotton in
jute
There is oue thing that we have ob
served and that is the people of Geor
gia do not want Tom Glenn, of Atlan
ta, for Governor, and the paper that
tries to force him ~u the public is no
frieud to the Alliance.
Soon the inquisitive census enumer
a’or will hie himself abroad, to correct
ly asceitain how many we are, and
how many our family is. We are just
a numeral.

to lie about again.
Eoou the candidate will be giving
his friendly hand to the beloved voter,
and then the fun will commence.

We renew our second to correspon

Apr. 9. Bill Snooks.
Until the blood is cleansed of impu*
rities, it is useless to attempt the cure
of any disease. Rhumatism, which is
traceable to an acid in the blood, has
been cured, in numerous cases, by the
use of Ayer’s Sarsaparilla, external
treatment being of no avail.
Mhady Urove.
Rain.
April begins business like March,
but the clerk of the weather cannot
stay off his kazip always.
The farmers are planting cotton.
Billie Fields is likely to get rich this
year, he has bought the odd sacks of
guano.
It pretty rough on the dirt
shoveliug gangs on the public roads
in our neighborhood this week. Lum
Fields is a good road boss, though.
Mr. J. W. Fields has a large crop of
guano.
Dock Stone has been reading the
Testament some lately.. He says Pe
ter and some other fellows were com
manded to put up their fish hooks and
arm themselves with the drag net of
religion and go seining fbr men. Dock
ain’t much on fishiug for folks, but he
makes the horny heads quake.
Singing at Mr. A. D. Martios’ 2nd
Sunday afternoon.
This neighborhood wants Mr. J, M.
Johnson for State Senator.
Jim Foster has not married yet, but
he is fixing to.
The dolorous notes of the first whip
poorwill of the season fell upon our
ear a few nights ago. In falling they
did not break the running gear of
hearing, but it made us feel awfully
like we were do >r neighbor to a ceme
tery, or that we had a half dozen ene
mies for messmates. The old fellow
may have meant no harm, but if its all
the same to him, he need not chant his
hair-raising roundelay any more in our
camp grsund.
Spring has arrived and likewise the
poet. Let him sing, for he can’t hurt
no body much.
Apr. 7. Rambler.
Hood’s Sarsaparilla has the largest
sale of any medicine before the public.
Any honest druggist will confirm this
statement.
Fair View.
You have heard of scarce articles,
commodatics, and “sich” like, but if lo
cal news has not gone a gilpin, then 1
am a liar after the manner of Eli, sur
named the Perkins.
The latest thing in the tonsorial line
is oui new barber He shaves without
soap or razor, but wheu he lets you up
your head feels like it had lain in a
brush heap while burning. The raon
dus operandi is like this : he lathers
you with soft solder and shaves you
with a hush hook.
It may bo fair, but it’s awful hard
that a mau who speuds 36G days in a
year tryiug to make cotton to nay for
the fuu he has had. when he is called
upon by a road overseer to work the
roads that he does not pack one. in a
coon's existauce. But thus it is, and
its appearauce can be no teaser.
John Babb is no bad walker. He
got anxious to see his dona the other
Sunday aud let out to the station a
foot back to intercept the Peanut, but
that train being late he measured his
heel on the ties, and got there all the
same.
Apr. 8. Jumbo.
Many people habitually endure a
feeling of lassitude, because they think
tliey have to. If they would take Dr.
