The Amendments.
It should ba remambered that
at the eleetion mext Wednesday
for State officers two amendments
to the constitution are to be voted
upon. The following fully ex
plains the proposed amendments:
“The first amendment proposes
to ehange the rule which provides
that all%ocnl bills shall originate
in the House. KExperience has
shown that this rule puts the bar
den of the work upon the House,
while the Senate often sits idle
waiting upon that body. The
change proposed provides that lo
cal bills may be introduced in the
Senate ag well as the house, so
that the waork of lagislation may
begin at both ends of the Genoral
Assembly.
“The second amendment pro
poses to amend the section of the
constitution in regard to aid
to Confederate soldiers. The
cous‘itution now provides that the
legislatare may make provisions
for those old soldiers who have
lost a limb or limbs while in the
service of the Confederate States.
Experierea with this matter has
shown that there are old soldiers
who have been badly disabled
without losing a limb, and the
amendmeut proposes to enlarge
the scope of this section 8o as to
include aid also to those who have
been disabled without loosing a
lHimb”.
! 1t is likely that both of the
amendments will be ratified at the
polls.
The newspapers appear to be
getting considerabie amusement
out of the faet that the opposing
candidates for Goveraor of Ten
nessee are brethers. One paper
snys that the people of Tennessee
have occasion to congratulate
themselves on getting rid of a mad
slinging campaign. “The Repub
liean candidate caunst well call
his opponent a slab-sidsd son of a
saw-loz without reflecting at the
same tima on his own origin,
while the Democratic candidate
will be restrained, for the same
reason, from hurlinz the charge
against his antagonist that his
grandfather stole a satting hen
from her nest.”
Guerry, who was recently in the
Congressional race in this district,
has been nominated for the State
Senate. The Guerrys are to tho
front for oflice this season.—Val
dosta Times.
Guess youare somewhat mista
ken,Bro. Pendleton. CoI.RR. A. Tur
nipseed is th 2 nominze of the Dem
ocracy from Mr. Guerry's dis
trict. However, his father has been
nominated from ths neighboring
district and this probably led you
into your error. As Solieitor Gan
eral of the Pataula cirenit Col.
Jim Guerry would scarcely find
time to serve as Senator, as the fall
courts have bagun,—g£arly Couanty
News.
THAT was an unwarranted slar
male by the Vallosta Timos
whon it said “the Guaerrys ara to
the front for offiza this s3ason.”
It was not Col. J. H. Guerry, who
sought the nomination for Con
gress, that was nominated for the
Senate, but his fathor, Hon. T. L.
Guerry, of Georgetown. With
very little trouble the Times could
have better informed itself in re
gard to the facts in th~ casa.

can learn the truckster of Terrell

relling about the manner in which

- As the special train bearing the
veterans of the Grand Army of
the Republic was waiting on the
side-track at Kingston, Ga., on
| Inst Wednesday, a large crowd of
people, both white and eolored,
igathemd around to see their
Northern friends. According to
the Kingston correspordant of
the Atlanta Constitution, a little
’negro boy, black as the ace of
spades, a son of the well-known,
i stiff-legged Bill Elliott,was stand
‘ing near with both eyes and
lmouth wide open, when one of
the ladies, seeing him, called him
to her, game him a nickle, and
bending down, placed her arm
round his neck and gave him a
resounding smack on his full,
rolling Ethiopian lips. They gave
delicacies from their lunch bas
kets to their colored brethren.
| The negross langhed in disgust at
the kiss the “white lady gave
Chap Elliott.” If the woman
who stole this kiss from the Geor
gia darkey had negotiated for it,
it is doubtful whether she would
have procured it for a nickel.
The kisses of women who have
no more respect for themselves
than this one had are not appre
ciated in the Soath—not even by
the little darkies.—Albany News.
In Atlanta they assess a dog $1
for being adog—with privilege to
ran at large; in Tennesse they as
sessa man 50 cents to become a doe

come a lawyer without being as
sessed at all. It cosls a dollar
more to be a dog in Atlanta thana
lawyer in Augusta, while, cven in
Tennessee, you can become a doe
tor for 5) cents less than it costs
to be & dog in Atlanta. Don’t be
a dog.—Macon Daily News.

Indjans on the Train.
The small boy of Smithville
was in his glory when, on
last Satarday morning, it
was announced that the “In
juns” would pass thhough on the
train that night. Buat they did
not arrive until 3 o’clock Sunday
morning. A large crowd was in
waiting at the depot to get a look
at them, many having come trom
other points to take in the show.
But very little was seen of them,
a guard being placed on each
platform to prevent the curious
irom prying in. Bat the small
boy climbed in anyhow, and he
says this is how the Injuns looked
to him at a glance:

A dozen or more young men,
from Dawson and Albany, were
left behind when the train moved
off, and great was their wrath
against the whole Indian tribe as
having been the cause of it. One
man said: “Here I am, left in
this town, with only fiftv cents in
my pocket! Hang the Injuns!”
It was as good as a circus.
And after all, they didu’t get a
look at them! The only one that

The agonies of those who suffer from sever

‘I take pleasure in recommending Hood':
Sarsaparilla, for it has done wonders for me

over nearly my entire body. Only those whe
have suffered from this disease in its wors
form can imagine tho extent of my affliction
I tried many raedicines, but failed to receive
benefit until i took Hood's Sarsaparilla
Then the disease began to subside, the
Agonizing Itch and Pain
disappeared, and now I am entirely free from
the disease. My Dlood seems to be thor
oughly purified, and my general health is
greatly benefited.” LYMAN ALLEN, Sexton
N. E. Church, North Chieago, 1L
“My son had salt rheum cn his hands and
the calves of his legs, so bad that they would
crack open and bleed. He took Hood's Sar
saparilla and is entirely cured.” J. B, STAN
TON, Mt. Vernon, Olio.
From (08 to i 35
“I was seriously troubled with salt rheum
for three years, and receiving no benefit from
medical treatment I decided to try IHood's
