GA„ DEC. 8, 1900 The Czar of Russia is better. 01 course we lefer to his sickness only. The newspaper liars are getting in their work on the Boxers again This time it is via Berlin and is no doubt a German pretext. After all the American jockey has captured the Englishman’s bus iness likes if he has not conquered his prejudices. Since the American ockey “gets there” ihsy want him. Gen. Egan is destined under the president’s favor, to escape further humiliation for ‘ cussing out” Gen. Miles the commander in chief of the land forces. Gen. Egan is a good Republican and that’s enough coup led with a promise not to swear sc loud next time. Yes, the soldiers home bill was defeated. Mr Herrington, of Burke, was present and voted for it Burke’s other representatives were absent from their seats and did not vote. The old soldier has no righb that a Georgia legislature is bound in any way to respect or take care of. Ridge. j Correspondence Citizen. Dec. 3. — Mrs. B F. Collins and lit- , tie daughter visited relatives here last week. I Miss Cora Smith, our cbarmiDg school mistress, spent last Saturday | and Sunday with relatives near Blythe. Matt Prescott and James Miller, of McBean, visited the Ridge last ; Sunday afternoon. Lucien Knight and charming sis ter, Miss Bertha Msy Knight, of McBean, passed through here las' Sunday evening en route to Heph zibah. Mrs. Lucy L. Peel aud winsome little grand daughter, Miss Minnie Lou Reynolds, of Millen, returned home last Saturday after spending sometime here with her sister, Mrs. N. T. Avret, Mrs. L. J Kilpatrick and briglh little children, of Munnerlyn, have returned home after spending some time with her parents at this place Miss Eula Collins is visiting friends in Burke county. The Philippine war is estimated to cost two million of dollars a day and the worst of it is there is no end of it in sight. Some very can did Republican papers are begin nine to grumble seriously. If tno question ol this war’s continuance was not settled by the election wiil somebody please tell us what was settled ? THE PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE. The president’s message- from a Republican standpoint is very fim and Hannah’s cigar at an angle 01 forty-five degrees expresses as much satisfaction as a young coon’.- tail after an oyster supper. He fol lowed the line marked out by Bryan pretty well, and imperialism, mili tarism, with big standing army and trusts are with us to stay. The pres ident’s platitudes over trusts look out of (he message winking the off eye as if put there to make Hanna rub his hands over his stomach and laugh. The president rings out the esto perpetua in about these words, “The republic was never so strongly en trenched in the hearts of the people as now. The constitution, with few amendments, exists as it left the hands of it’s authors.” Indeed it does and why not? It isn’t in anybody’s way at all when the Republicans are iu power; and the Democrats do not care to alter it when in power. Therefore it stands about the same. Plutocracy, trusts and imperialism are past that point where they should stop to in quire after it and they do uot stop That august individual, the Repub lican president, could not if hi would make his pariy pay any at tention to it further than to kick it one side whenever it obtrudes ilselt seriously in the plutocratic path.So. in this manner the esto perpetua confronts the great union of statrs to day. The Chinese question is what could have been looked for. The Chinese are wrong not to wish for eigners in their own country, par ticularly Americans from the Unit ed States; and they are inferential- ly wrong because they want to come over here and stay with us re ciprocally. So far as the Philippines are concerned, whatever delightful language the president may use about liberty, free government and the like, beneath it all the Filipinos were only constructed by provi dence to be civilized by rapid fire guns and Krag-Jorgensen rifles. The end of the century, it is plain, changes nothing. Like Pizarro in Peru, Cortez in Mexico we butcher and slay in the name of civilization those whose territory we want, and can call ourselves truthfully scien tific savages. Christianity and the rifle go hand in hand and the march to peace and good will on earth Is Blythe. Correspondence Citizen. Richmond Lodge No. 412 of F.and A.

The most pitiful thing is that same baby, thin and in pain. And the mother does not know that a little fat makes all the differ ence. Dimples and joy have gone, and left hollows and fear; the fat, that was comfort and color and curve-all but pity and love-is gone. The little one s:ets no fat from her food. There is some thing wrong; it is either her food or food-mill. She has had no fat for weeks; is living on what she had stored in that plump little body of hers; and that is gone. She is starving for fat it is death, be quick! Scott’s Emulsion of Cod Liver Oil is the fat she can take; it will save her. The genuine has this picture on it, take no other. If you have not tried it. send for free sample, its agreeable taste will surprise you. SCOTT & BOWNE, Chemists, 409 Pearl St., N.
