The Survival of the Fittest.
WAYNESBORO, GA,. NOV. 21, 1900
Oim Paul Kruger is lionized in
France,
Col. Roberston is our state Adju
tant-genera!, Gen. Pnil. G. Byrd
having retired for him.
The emperor of Russia may die
without tlie aid of a bomb this time
Typhoid germs have him in hand
and havn’t let up.
At present the franchise fight on
street railways and lights in Atlan
ta is off, a kind of armed neutrality
having been established between
the forces led by Atkinson and Hurt
respectively.
The gobblers are gobbling, but
not altogether for Thanksgiving
day. It is mostly confined to rail
roads in the South by northern rail
way gobblers, who are gradually
taking in the earth.
Secretary Root went to Cuba it is
alledged, in the interest of annexa
tion. Well, it is all right if the pop
ulation there say so by a fair popu
lar vote. But that does not matter;
the present administration is after
Cuba and it’s already “good as
our’n.”
Montana Clark seems to have
things coming his way all the time
now. Even Daly goes and dies at
the very nick Of time. New what
will the dignified senate do when
Clark marches in defiantly? The
Hard ways of the transgressor do
not bother Claik a little bit.
The American jockies in En
gland seemed to have down Lord
Durham and his ring against them
to expel them from the Eogl'sh
turf. John Bull may successfully
tackle Boers and Zulus, but when
he undertakes to wrestle with a
yankee race rider he is outclassed
and “not in it.”
Mr. R-twins bill to kenp ihe polls
open at country precincts untii th->
closiug hour at the county site is
objectionable. The legislature thn
always has its section-of-ilie code
fiend. Long time before Mr. Rawl-
began to aspire to legislative honors
—and that has been a krng time-
this law was fixed for the benefit of
the country voter. He could see ill
polls closed and get home before
night. In many respects it is a great
convenience as it stands, that the
freeholders can count out the votes
before night and return to his home
while it is yet light. Why imposp
the hardship that would naturally
follow? Mr. Rawls and others who
are eternally tinkering with laws
ought to give our forebears some
credit for sense.
Ob sakes! Augusta buying votes
n the white primary { Don’t talk
about negro venality any more. W’e
did think that could not be done in
the proud South amoDg whites
Where are we drifting for Heaven
sakes! and who is the white can
didate that suffered it. Are such
proud of the victory ?
The Marietta Journal cites legal
authority from the U, S. supreme
court. (10th Howard 383 447) that
“there is no power given by the con
stitution to establish or maintain
colonies bordering on the United
States or at a distance to be ruled
or governed at its own pleasure.”
After the recent victory of the im
perialists, Mr. Hanna’s junta will
smile blandly and go right on over
the obsolete constitution.
Our friend,the Augusta Chronicle,
for our smiling so loudly because ii
called our city' 1 Waynesboro village”
comes back at us and saucily re
marks, “better a first-class village
than a fifth rate city.” We drop
ped our broad smile and began to
scratch our head foEc-we call ’em-
uleas. Then we roamed around
among the census returns and, great
Scott! where did we*find our favor
ite suburb! Fifth? Well, nix.
COTTON.
The Cotton Growers’ Association
was in session this week in Macon
and did great work. At it ex-sec
retary of the interior, Hoke Smith,
made a magnificent speech. Hon W
L. Peck however struck the key
note when he took the ground that
every cotton plantation in the South
would be a gold mine, if cotton was
made a surplus crop.
There is the South’s greatest op
portunity. We may talk, every one
of us, as we please about manufac
tures of iron, cotton and oil mills and
smaller industries, but nothing will
make the South greatest and weal
thiest country on earth so soon at
its total freedom takes place in th
matter of food products. Everything
that a farmer of the South can
make within his own territory that
will relieve him of the slavery and
grind of buying what he eats makes-
him an independent sovereign.

Speaking of calling's convention
for framing a new constitution the
the Atlanta News says, “the matter
should be very seriously considered
We need more leaders—honest, un
selfish, capable men—patriots seek

pot house politician is in the places
where statesmen ought to be, thick

If Chandler of New Hampshire
loses his place in the senate of the
United States the South will lose
an enemy, but may have another
able bodied one in bis place. New
Hampshire people do not believe
tbe South has ever seen more than
half dozen new testaments and a
couple of Webster’s Blueback spell
er. It will require sometime for
New Hampshire to find out the
South is not tbe seat of war in tbe
Philippines.
Betting
Thin
is all right, if you are too fat;
and all wrong, if too thin already.
Fat, enough for your habit, is
healthy; a little more, or less, is
no great harm. Too fat, consult
a doctor; too thin, persistently
thin, no matter what cause, take
Scott’s Emulsion of Cod Liver
Oil.
There are many causes of get
ting too thin; they all come
under these two heads: over
work and under-digestion.
Stop over-work, if you can;
but, whether you can or not,
take Scott’s Emulsion of Cod
Liver Oil, to balance yourself
with your work. You can’t live
on it—true—but, by it, you
can. There’s a limit, however;
you’ll pay for it
Scott’s Emulsion of Cod Liver
Oil is the readiest cure for
“can’t eat,” unless it comes of
your doing no work-you can’t
long be well and strong, without
some sort of activity.
The genuine has
this picture on it,

A Village Blacksmith Saved His little Sons
Life.
Mr. H. H. Black, the well known
village blacksmith at Grahamsville,
Sullivan Co , N. Y , says: “Our lit
tie son, five years old, has always
been subject to croup, and so bad
have the attacks been that we have
feared many times that ho would
die. We have had the doctor and
used many medicines, but Cham
berlain’s Cough Remedy is now our
sole reliance. It seems to dissolve
the tough mucous and by giving
frequent doses when the croup}
symptoms appear we have found
ihat the dreaded croup is cured
before it gets settled.” There is no
