Hon. .T. C. C. Black of the tenth
1 Congressional district won’t accept the
nomination any more. T his was a
surptise to many.
Senator Gorman of Maryland speaks
of the situation in Thursdays Constitu
tion. He proposes to stand by the
platform and ticket put forth at ( hica

Hon. Walter J. Woodall, Assistant
State School Commissioner, is in the
harness and doing good work. Com
missioner Glenn has a splendid f o
worker.
Instead of taking the usual week off
to celebrate the Fourth of July, Bio
Ht.rdv of the Bartlesville Gazette got

The brave and dashing Hot) Berner
seems to have gotten into a political
fight down it the Senatorial district
A democrat and a statesman, he will
always he foifnd where the fight is the
lierciesf He goes in to win.
It seems that some democra's in
Spalding are not willing to abide by the
result of th'-ir primary. Judge J. S.
Boynton was nominated to the legisla
tive race and yet the man he defeated
will be run against him by a wing of
the democratic party
Hon. James M. Griggs has been
nominated to congress from the second
congressional district. Mr. Griggs is a
good man, a tried democrat and a
true statesman. Three times baa be
been honored with office, —represeuta
tive, solicitor and judge, —and three
times has he worn well the honor. He
will, doubtless, be pushed for the
speakership.
Indian Spring was recently the scene
of the largest Teachers County Insti
tute ever held iu the State. It is be

pleasant and profitable stay at Cumber
land. __
The Chicago Convention.
The democrats have met in natioual
convention, aud performed thoir duties.
How correctly or incorrectiv, time only
can tell.
A short while ago we were looking
J forward to the convention as the great
j event, politically speaking, of the year,
j Now we viewed it only in the retro
j spective.
In a few days a great convention
has met,framed a platform for a nation
al party, put out a ticket for that party
and returned home.
Viewing that platform we find* it
about what we expected.
Its leading feature is the very strong
position it assumes for the free, un
limited, and independent coinage of
silver at the ratio of 1G to 1.
This seems to be in strict accordance
with the views expressed by our state
convention, which met in Macon re
cently. Georgia seems to be over
whelmingly in favor of the white metal,
j aud consequently the platform should
suit her exactly.
The issuance of bonds in times of
peace are just as bitterly opposed as
the present monetary system. The
platform believes in their being issued
odlv in times of necessity and then
upon the sanction of Congress.
The tariff question and the impor
; tation of foreign pauper labor are touch’
! ed upon in no uncertain terms.
I The platform has its exceedingly
strong points and will have a followiug
J that will surprise tho gold men.
The nominees for the Presidency
1 and Vice Presidency will prove adraw-
| ing card.
Mr. Ilryan, nominee for Pres., is
known over the entire Union. In Con
gress he won fame as an orator that
will be lastiug. He is a gentleman,
sterling worth, intelligent, eloquent,
energetic and moral, he is a person to
attract men to him. His running mate
Mr. Sewall is cut from the same pat
tern. He is a ship builder from Maine.
No less intelligent, gentleman’y, and
refined than Mr. Bryan, he will be a
j/ood ruuuing mate for the Nebraskan.
These men are thoroughly in sympathy
with the platform and will always and
everywhere stand by it.
McDonough, ga-. Friday, jui.y 21, ustiti.
Crisp anil Bacon on the Nominee.
Ex Speaker Chas. F. Crisp, of
Georgis, nays of Mr. Bryan: “The
nominee is a man of great ability,
earnestness and force of character.
1 During his fiist term iu cougress—the
fifty second sessiou—l appointed him
on the ways and means committee,
notwithstanding it is unusual to appoint
a new member on that committee. He
had, however, been an earnest advocate
of tariff reform aud came from the right
section of the country. It was soon
proveu that uo mistake had been made
iu putting him upon that session he
made a speech ou the subject of tariff
reform which gave him a national rep
utation. lam sure if elected his ad
ministration would be in every way suc
cessful.” t
Senator A. O. Bacon, of Georgia
says: “Bryan is a platform in himself.
Ile stands for the silver cause in its
every aspect. His whole political
coarse has been involved with the cause
of the white metal an his light for it
and his peculiar ability as a magnetic
leader, entitle him to leadeiship. With
Bryan and Sewa.l we will sweep the
country. So wall has for years stood
for our cause and his lighting has been
done on grouud where lie found little
sympathy. It is an ideal ticket.”
A Presidential Prediction.
It lias beeu predicted at the demo
cratic head quarters in Chicago that
the following states will cost their elec
torial votes for Bryan in the fall:
Alabama, 11; Arkansas, 8; Califor
uia 8; Colorado, 4; Florida, 4;Georgia,
13; Idaho, 3; Kansas, 10; Kentucky, 13;
Louisiana, 8; Maine, G; Maryland, 8;
Michigan, 14; Mississippi, 9; Missouri,
17; Mantana,3; Nebraska, 8; North
Carolina, 11. North Dakota, 3; Ore
gon, 3; South Caiolina, 9: Tennessee,
12: Texas, 15; Utah, 3; Virginia, 12;
Washington, 4 West Virginia, G;
Wyoming, 3. Total 228 As 224
votes would decide the matter and give
Bryan a majority of 5. This many
miss it. But as it is an official predic
tion it will do to clip out and save.
Last summer one of our granJ child
ren was sick with a severe bowel trou
ble. Our doctor’s remedies had failed,
then we tried Chamberlain’s Colic,
Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy, which
gave very speedy relief. We regard
it as the best medicine ever put on the
market for bowel complaint.— Mrs. E.
G. Gregory, Frederickstown, HJo,
This certainly is the best medicine
ever put on the market for dysentery
summer complaint, colic and cholera
infantum in children. It never fails to
give prompt relief when used iu reason
able time and the plain printed direc
tions are followed. Many mothers
have expressed their sincere gratitude
for the cures it has effected. For sale

“Now, gentlemen and ladies,’’ said
the street faker, exhibiting a bottle of
his famous hair restorer, “this prepar
ation used externally will iusure a full
suit of hair to’ the smoothest pate in
the crowd. But remember this one
necessary precaution, when the hair is
once grown, then take a couple of
doses in temally.
“Wbat’s that for?” asked the pros
pective purchaser,
“To clinch the roots,” replied the
faker, as he handed down the bottle
and pocketed . r »0 cents.”—Washington

We live in a country of which the
principal scourge is stomach trouble.
It is more wide spread than any
other disease, and, very nearly, more
dangerous.
One tbiDg that make it so dangerous
is that it is so little understood.
If it were better understood, it would
be more feared, more easily cured, less
universal than it is now.
So, those who wish to be cured, take
Shaker Digestive Cordial, because it
j;oe8 to the root of the trouble as no
other medicine does. The pure, harm

it is composed, are what render it so

Under the above caption the Way
nesboro 'True Citizen makes some very
pertinent remark" regarding the prac
tice of lynching. It says:
“At a late meetiug of the Lawyers
Association the discussion of the sup
pression of lynching took a prominent
part. It is a vital question.
'The central in this grave matter is
to teach the masses to rise above the
detestible crime of taking the law away
from its proper channels and placing it
in the bands of unreasonable mobs.
Certainly this is true, but teaching
without precept has always been held
to be of little avail, While it is held
out that the law is the great protector
of society, it is constantly exhibited
that law is mostly indifferent about so
ciety, and leaves it to suffer to take
care of itself. When a lynching takes
place like that iu Columbus not long
since, it is quite the fad for the press
to flare up, condemn the community of
law breakers, assassins et cetera, and
Mien as suddenly sudsido without going
to the bottom of the whole matter and
condemning the courts that refused to
furnish to an outraged community legal
vengeance for the most infernal ol
wrongs. Was it not about time for
the Columbus people, who are in all
respect a law abidiug community, to
be out of all patience with the law
that allowed lawyers to dally two years
with a crime that hud burned iuto the
hearts of every good citizen? Lawyers
and courts are given too nig/ch scope in
in this country to defeat justice in
punishing criminals. 'The press seems
to see but half the difficulty, or wil
fully refuses to ceusure that half which
ueglects its duty.
So suiely do English courts punish
crime justly and speedily that no one
ever hears of lynch law ou English soil,
or that accused persons are punished
unjustly,. The same blood flow in out
veins, the same love of law, justice,
fair play and freedom lives in our peo
ple as in those Anglo Saxons, and
there would never he a caso of lynch
ing among us if the same legal protec
tion was givon to American society.
If the boasted power of tlio press is
worth anything to the people, here is
a subject on which it can profitable ex
ert it.”

ever die; I don’t think you love each
other because I never marry any ol
you; i don’t think you love me because
you have not paid my salary. Your
donations have been mouldy fruit anil
wormy apples, and ‘By their fruits yt
shall kuow them.’ Brothers, 1 am go'
mg to a better place. I have been
called to be chaplain of a penitentiary.
■Whither I go ye cannot come, but 1
go to prepare a place for you.’ May
the good Lord have mercy on your
souls. Good-by.”

“You should get your ears lopped,
Brain,” Baid a “smart” tourist to an
Irish peasant, whom he was quizzing;
“they’re to largo for a mau ” “Ah’
faedad,” replied the Milberuian, “I was
just thiukin’ yours would wau’t to be
made larger; sure they’re too small for
an ass.”
“Barney” was a noted car driver at
a well kuown Irish watering place. He
helil that the “salt water” was vastly
improved by mixture with a “drop of
the croytbur,” hut would not commit
himself to the opinion that the latter
element gained anything by the com
bination. lie sometimes drank more
of it*“neat” than was wise or well for
the father of his weak family. One
hot day after a long drive and a liber
al fare, Barney turned into the best
bar in town and asked for a “sprinkle,
just to keep down the dust.” The
pr prietor, who would rather have oth
er customers than poor Barney, came
iu as the latter was raising the glass.
••Barney,” he said, I’d rather you
wouldn’t be driuking, my boy. You
know you were sorry for this too.”
“Begora, I might,” replied Barney;
“but, sure, it’s safer to be sorry for
takin’ it than for not takin’ it.”
