But come in and see what we have. AU8USTA, G A sept IS 19-00-am. b .(Erne (Eitizen. 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. Tetter List.

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 ing the welfare of their people in different iO the allurements of of fice.” We certainly do. The little pot house politician is in the places where statesmen ought to be, thick as grinning monkeys in a manager- ic. 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, take no other. If you have not tried it, send for free sample, its a- greeable taste will surprise you.

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 danger in giving this remedy for ii contains no opium or other Injuri ous drug and may be given as con fidently to a babe as to an adult.For -ale by H B mcmaster druggist, Waynesboro, Ga. —Yes, A.
