The Washington Post thinks “Mr. Dart, of Brunswick, missed a golden op portunity when lie failed to invite Ed itor Pruett, of Albany, to go down to Brunswick and sit out the epidemic with him, and this settle their little quarrel. In a duel of that kind the combatants would indeed, be upon an even footing. The Brunswick Times-Advertiser is doing its best to locate its absent sub scribers. The job, we opine, is more difficult than stopping the onward march of yellow fever. . - The Press has brought Brunswick’s case before the people, humanity has asserted Itself and the sufferers are re lieved for the present. The fever record for Jesup yesterday, was one new case, 3Irs. Sands and one discharged, the Southwell child.. 3Ir. Hendricks, who died at Bruns wick yesterday, was an ex-policeman. case of yellow fever is reported twenty miles north of Hazelhurst. The case is that of a 3Ir. Leggett, of Jesup: isolated and there iS~no danger of ts spreading iu that section. Let Brunswick be of good cheer. She is nearly out of the woods. An expert physician at Brunswick has given it as his opinion that negroes cannot become immunes from yellow fever. Hahira has donated $80 to the Bian> wick sufferers. Mr. Harry L. Schlisinger, of Atlanta, has raised $750 for the Brunswick suffer ers. lie is doing a splendid work. There is a negro population in Bruns wick of about 70 per cent. Idleness and hunger and exposure have probably played an important part in their in creased sickness. The tendency of malarial fever has been to develop into the prevailing sickness.—T.-A. The commissary force is reduced by the illness of two men. Those remain ing on duty are doing double work. It is impossible under the circumstances, for them to promptly acknowledge con tributions. They will do the best they can, however, and request the public to excuse any dereliction. The frost reports from all over the country indicate that yellow fever’s days are numbered. So mote it be. The commissary at Brunswick is giv ing out 1,500 rations daily. A slight frost appeared in the vicinity of Brunswick on the morning of the lGtli inst r' - Hon. H. G. Turner has shown a con stant interest in matters at Brunswick for the past month and besides individual contribution has directed some very l portant arrangements to our relief He has kept in daily correspondence with Mayor Lamb, and is ever ready to give counsel and effort in behalf of the dis tressed.—Times-Advertiser. The small death rate of our scourge has been made upon cn uncertain basis and before the real conflict is over. The sickness has been of very severe type, but has been treated with the utmost skill and by the most energetic of physi cians. The harmony of the forces and the sympathy and patriotism of the management has made a big count the relief afforded.—Times-Advertiser. I The right of the minority is to ac cept defeat as gracefully as possible. Texas has a railroad that runs through sugarland. That should be a sweet little road. Congress may pass some laws af ter awhile, but at present Congress is not in the law passing business. The thread of a silk worm long enough to reach around the world would weigh only forty-seven pounds. A race war in Perry county Ar kansas is said to be eminent. The race troubles grow more frequent daily. Another outrage in Tennessee yes terday. The invitable hemp pulling that always follows will take place to-day. There seems to be no chance for compromise in the Senate, and the country remains in a state of* dazed expect /. * irfillman »s ruaaiog-lus—dispea*-- sarybusiness for revenue only, why not tack on a gambling attachment. Tillman should go the whole hog. Senator Brown’s health is said to be very poor. Your uncle Joe has been puny for a long time. -He’ll be here however when many of ns have turned up our toes. Had the President any idea of the kicking quality of his “wild team of colts” he would have kept them out in pasture all summer and enjoyed his fishing at Buzzard’s.—Chicago Intcr-Ocean. An exchange says “Utah is begin ning to show considerable anxiety for sisterhood among the states.” We thought it was a ^part of Mor- manism to do away with sisterhood by marrying the sisters. Professor Brooks, of Smith Observ atory, Geneva, N. Y. has discovered another very large comet with a very short tail. Professor Smith will not be entitled to the gratitude. of the America people. It is the long tailed comet that we are after. Is the fact that negroes are now killed by yellow fever the same as other people, an evidence that they are advancing in knowledge and civili zation ? Judge Merslion is no doctor, but we'll wager a “sweet whispers” that he can enswer the question. When the Democratic party learns bow to handle the dissenters within its ranks—the men who, for reasons not in consonance with party loyalty, ignore the platform they helped to make—then and not until then may we expect that unity which would add glory to victory and prosperity to the whole country.—Capitol. A prominant Griffin gentleman says that there can only be one solu- tion to the money question, one that the gold bugs and silverites will agree to—and that is to mix 'em up and coin 'em together.”—Griffin Call. Does onr contemporary mean to in* elude the President and both branches of Congress in the coinage ?
