TIB TELEGRAPH AND MR. GUERRY.
'This paper is not a supporter
or Mr. Querry, but it does not hes
itate to say that the recent attack
made upon him by the Telegraph
has done more to help him than
anything which has occured in
the campaign. Mr. Uuerry is an
absolutely clean, brave, able and
upright man. His whole life—
personal add political—is without
stain. Every one iii the state who
knows its publio men must be
fully cognisant of the character of
Dupont Querry. The Telegraph,
: as his home psper, may dilTor
5 from him politically, but it, too,
must know his character. That
paper uses this language concern
ing Mr. Querry:
"The craftiness which would
dodge the responsibility at homo
let itssting remain abroad." * * *
"We denounce this as low cun
ning,” * * * “Mr. Querry knows
that his assertion is as false as it
is malicious. lie knew it when he
Uttered it, and he quails when it
'is made public."
These words, in their last anal
ysis, oharge Mr. Querry with craft
iness and low cunning, falsehood,
malice and cowardice! Mr.Quer
ry is neither crafty nor cunning.-
He in incapable of falsehood, is
without malice, and is of proven
courage. The language used by
The Telegraph, is not warranted
by the faots. It appears that in a
conversation at Gniuusviiie, Mr.
Querry said in speaking of The
Telegraph: “It is so soaked with
liquor that when you open it to
read it you can smell whisky.”
This wds only a figure of speeoh.
It did not ..mean, suggest or say
that any. |kx$pu connected with
The Telegraph was a drunkard.
What it did mean was that there
is a strong anti-prohibition senti
ment in Macon mid that The Tele
graph was in accord with that sen
timent. Is this not the truth?
-The same thing might be said of
the Chronicle, of Augusta, or the
Vawa, of Savannah : in fact of every
’ly paper iu tho state. The oities
led to prohibition. The
iss represent the senti-
leir constituencies,
in favor of prohibi-
dailies are op-
OTHER PEOPLE'S MAIL.
Mr. W. A. McNeill, postmaster
at Waycross; has requested the
Journal to call attention to a re
cent ruling of the postal author
ities. They have fixed » penalty
of $200, on parties taking mail
out of the postoffice, other than
their cwn, and not returning it
It might be well for persons
who are not aware of tbia, to
make a note of the fact, as it may
some day, save them some trouble.
The law roquiree people to look at
their mail before taking it out of
the offles and if they should hove
mail- other than their own they
must return it at once. It also
includes newspapers. The excuse
'that'it is the postmaster’s fault,
does uot exonerate the individual
If you have been carelessly hand
ling other people’s mail, that may
hove inadvertantly got into your
possession, you had better take
warning, or it may give you
trouble,

WOMEN AND JEWELS.
Jewels, candy, flowers, man—
that is the order of a woman’s pre
ferences. Jewels form a magnet
of mighty power to the average
womeu. Even that greatest of all
jewels, health, is often ruined iu
the strenuous efforts to make or
save the money to purchase them.
If a woman will risk her health
to get a coveted gom, then let her
fortify herself against the insidu-
ous consequences of coughs, colds
and bronchial affections by the
tegular uk of Dr. Bosch os’s Ger
man Syrup. It will promptly ar
rest consumption in its early stages
and heal the affected longs and
bronchial tubes and drives
dread disease from the system.
It is not a cure-41! but it is a cer
tain cure for ooughs, colds and all
bronchial troubles. You can get
