Tue Atlanta Tammanyites are havißs |
hot shot poured into them from every di- |
rection, '
WE notice that many able newspapers
are trying to define ‘‘where Mr. Hill {
stands.” We trust he is not standing on |
his head. ;
TuE governor of Texas has entered up- |
on a lively campaign. He has fifty ap- ‘
pointments between April 21 and July 4.
This is cne Hogg that knows how to get i
over ground. |
CounTrßY weekly editors were never
kn®wn to be a liberal minded-class—al
ways willing to subvert their own inter
ests for the public weal, This is evi
denced by their strong advocacy of Tom
Watson’s bill to tax incomes where they
run up into the thousands.
I.ax JouxsoN has decided not to be a
eandidate <sr the state senate from the
Columbus district. He has recently en
tered with all his energies into the in
surance business, and has concluded that |
business and county politics do not work
well in double harness. Mr. Johgson's
wisdom is that of an octogenarian. |
Ou, the cranks. We have Jack the
ripper, Jack the slasher, and now Jack
the hugger isthe latest development in
Gotham. The last named Jack has
a fondness for embracing the female
form divine ‘“‘anywhere and everywhere”
he gets an opportunity. Other huggers
are not so promiscuous, but they get
there just the same. :
News comes from polite Chicago that
the latest social fad is the revival of a
feminine courtesy which was the proper
caper, instead of a bow, in the days of
good old Mother Hubbard. Sooner or
later the courtesy is liable to stray down
this way. So if you happen to be salut
ed with a sudden dip and squat on being
introduced to a fashionable young wo
man some fine evening, just hold your
ground, She hasn’t lost anything,
Hearineg that her former nursling,
Liavws~~aa Millcr, was in Gaine:ville,Fla.,
Lina, his colorea we—.,,, paid her way
from Jacksonville, where shes. 1.,
ed, to go tosee her former charge and
newly made bride, While there she
went to a jewelry store and bought a
silver gold-lined shaving mug and a sil
ver handled shaving brush and made
him a present of them. This,afier twen
ty-years of the teaching of hatred to her
former owners and their off-spring by
her self-styled friends, is worthy of
note.
A cunrious Jawsuit is reported from
Shenandoali, Va. A few Sundays aco
the wife of David Jones carried their
infant to the Episcopal church to be hayp
tized. Before the ceremony biog o
Jones 2rore and exclaimed: “Hold up;
you christen that child you do it agains
the wisti and rcligion of the father, [
am an iglish Bapuist.”” The wife said
it was hier wish to have the child chris
tenea, and the minister proceeded witn
the ceremony. The husband then had
the clergyman arresied under a law
which states that a father has the spivit
ual and educational control of the ehila
until it arrives at the age of mat iriy
The case has been sent to court, wiei.

“1 have just recovered from a second
attack of ihieturippe this year,” says Mr.
Jas. O. Joues, publisher of the Leader

used Chamborlain’s Cough Remedy, an
I think with considerable success, on'v

been equally as bad as the first but fou

CHARACIER N FOLITICS. |
The great speech deilivered at Ann .
Harbor last week by ex-President Cleve- !
land, on the subject of characterin pu]-i'
ities, was almost drowned by the nnisv%
of the maehine at Albany. The politi- i
cians of the country, those who are now l
running and yelling with the machine.;
turned deaf ears to the voice of the great |
Demoeratic statesman who had gone a:,
great distance to sty to the youth there |
assembled, and to the youth of the land,
that there is something higher and nobler
in politics than its spoils. 1t was a lofty
theme, worthy the man and woithy the;
hour. The two thousand or more stu
dents who heard the address must have
heen impressed with the nobility of the
thought and the crystal purity of the
patriotism winch pervaded it. If they,
and with them the youth of the land,
shall take the lesson into their lives as|
an inspiration and guide into the citizen
ship and its responsibilities which they
are soon to assume, the future will be
full of hope for the Repablic.
The following is an extract from Mr.
Cleveland’s speech:
“ beg you, therefore, to take with you
wken you go forth to assume the obliga
tion of American citizenship, as one of
the best gmfts of your a'ma mater, &
strong and abid ng faith in the value and ‘
potency of a good conscience and a pute |
heart. Never yield one iola to those
that teach that these are weak and child
ish things, not nceded in the struggle of
‘manhood with the stern realties of life.
Interest yourseif in public affairs as a
duty of citizenship; butdo not surrender
your faith to those who discredit and de
base politics by scoffing at sentiment and
pinciple, and whose political activity con
sists in attempts to gain popular support
by cunning devices and shrewd manipu
lation. You will find plenty of these
who will smile at your profe=sion of faith
and tell you that truth and virtue and
honesty and goodness were well enough
in the old days when Washington lived,
but are not suifed to the present size and
development of our country and the pro
gress we have made in the art of politi
cal management. Be steadfast. The
strong and sturdy oak still needs the
support of its native earth, and as it
grows in size and spreading branches, its
roots must strike deeper in the soil which
warmed and fed its first tender sprout,
You will be told that the people have no
longer any desire for the things yvou pro-
Ifcss. Be not deceived. The people are
not dead but sleeping. They will awake
! M gumt e dteavg omd SUTULIRT the maonoy
| changers from their sacred temple,
“You may be chosen to public office,
i Do not shrink from it, for holliny office
iz also a duty of citizenship, But do
not leave your faith bebind you. Every
public office, sm»all or great, is held in
i trust for your fellow-eitizens. They dif
| fer in impoitance, in respon-ibility and
| in the labor they impose; but the duiies
i of none of them can be well performed if
’ the mentorship of a good conseience and
; pure heart be discarded. Of course
'fiil,(‘r equipment is necessavy, but with
§ out this mentoirship all else isinsufficient.

WHY SIMPSON IS CALLED “SOCKLESS." |
-SSR i
A Story From an Official Source as to How ‘
He Xecured the Soubrigquet. f
From the Chicago Mail, ‘
“There are thousands of persous who |
wonder why I am called ‘Sockless’ Simp
son,”” said that representative of the
State of Kansas to an acquaaintance yes
terday. “But there are very few who
know the real reason. I was a young
fellow with a considerable fondness for
the society of young ladies, and I was’
very proud of my feet,”” The Congress
man stretched out his neatly cased ped
als for the inspection of his ifriends, and
glanced at them with pride. ‘“‘We all
used to wear tight boots,” he continued,
“sometimes so tight as to be very uncom
fortable. There was a fellow who had a
foot just a trifle smaller than mine. He
could wear boots a size smaller than I,
and a mutual acquaintance, who, by the
way, was a young lady, spoke about it to
me omne evening. 1 wasin the habit of
wearing heavy woolen sock, and I knew
that if I should take them off I could
wear smaller boots. To my great joy, I
found, on trying, that I could wear a
size smaller than my rival, and I at once
purchased a pair. I went to call that
evening as usual, and found him there,
proud in the possession of feet which
were really snialler than mine. Thesub
ject came up—l believe I started it—
about the size of our boots, to a meas
uremnent, Of course, I won, and he
seemed to feel as badly over it as if he
had lost a horse race. But the bootmaker
who was in possession of my secret gave
me away and the boys all got on to the
story. Do I wear socks now? 1 should
say that I do.”
To the humble and credulous, as well
as to the rich and skeptical, Dr. Bull's
Cough Syrup is a true and welcomed
friend. Price 25 cents.

Young Folks, Think of This.
Every boy and girl should understand
the obligation to write to the host or
hostess upon arriving home from a visit.
A short note is all that is necessary,
merely a pleasant, friendly, grateful
word, telling of safe arrival, and ac
knowledging the kindness that made the
visit a pleasant one. I remewmber a so
cial sin of omission of which I was guilty
I had made Lydia a visit, and upon my
return home neglected, through girlish
carelessness, to write tle little note. I
realized my discourtesy when it was so
late that I was ashamed to write,
! Ido not know whether Lydia has for
| given me, for T never had the moral
I tvarage to-ask her; hut I have not. for
igivvn myself and have never been able
i to recall that visit with sati-faction, ank
fuli because I was guilty of neglect. Neg
leet is the one unpardonsible sin against
friendship. You may sin grievously
iihl‘u}lgh ilil'*‘tl\' temper, or foolish, im
pulsive actiovs. but cold negleet can
i never hope for forgiveness,.—West Shore.
ITCW IS THE TIME.
Now is the time to invigorate and
{Ol Uy your constitution, by using a few
bo'tles of Dr. Jolin Bull's Sarsaparilla.
You need it, Everybody needs to take
th excellent alterative, and blood
eleanser at this seasonof the year. It
wilti cure you of weakness, It will give
yousitensth, it may save you an attack
of pnewmonia or other severe spells of
sickuess, for at the approach of spring
the =istem iswvery susceptible to taking
ot unless fortitied by the use of this
reszedy, 1f you are in the habit of tak
ing iodide of potash each spring,
Ly it this vear, dissolved in
3 « ’
Cr. John tull’s Sarsaparilla
Thus talon, fodide of potash has no evl
after effect on the stomach, liver and
fidneys. Each vottle of Bull's Sarsapa
rilla contains 48 tabiespoonfuls of medi
cine. A bhall! once lodide of Potash
added to a bottle of Dr. John Bull's
Sarsaparilia equals five grains to each
table-spoonful, and thus you know ex
actly how much yon are taking,
IF= Alfred Howell, Cairo, 111., writes:
“Foo yours I have been afflicted with an
incurable case of blood disease. Bull's
Sarsapaviila is the only remedy that
gives me any durable relief. Whenever
L take iodide of potash I aiways take it
with Bull’s Sirsaparilia. It always has
a better effect on my systemn when mixed
with this Sarsapariila.”
