The Survival of the Fittest. WAYNESBOROjGA., SEPTEMBER 14.1901 And now a guard is appointed for Iianna. This makes things a little ridicuious. How about Sampson? The $400,000 dollar bet on the in ternational yacht race is now ofT, for the reason that it was never on. The Atlanta Journal certainly “scooped” the whole shooting match —if the slang can be allowed—In ihe news of the shooting of (he pres ident, and also concerning th.4 Wel lington interview about the presi dent while ho lay on his i eJ from the wounds oi the'assas.-nn. The Journal seems to have made up its i mind that it will not be left. Think of a Georgia journal giving the news to ihe streets of New’ York in spite of the saffron hned ! There is 179,652.312 surplus dollars m the United States treasury after deducting expenses and the gold re serve up to date. The new boat to defend the America Cup has been beaten by the old one, the Columbia. The last will have to defend it again. Shaffer has Dot succeeded in the strike and now he is assailed and abused. Such is the fate of him who is not near enough related to Eii to “get there.” By a majority vote at Warsaw, Inu., in the Bible convention—large majority perhaps—it was decided that heli fire and not hades was fu lure punishment- Dr. Broughton, of Atlanta, Bap tist minister, was tendered an ova tion on lua return from Europe. He is refreshed and ready for the fray again even if it does include the mayor. Lieut. Hobson is not improving his popularity in ihe South by fawn ing around the 400 of New York City and getting engaged to the daughters of pronounced Angloma niacs and Millionaires. Venezuela, having the fate of Cuba, Porio Rica and the Philip pines before her, has kindly inti mated to Oom Samuel that she will try to worry along with Columbia without his finger in the pie. Sam is snubbed. Hon. Pope Brown ought to suit the farming people. He is a man of convictions, honest of purpose, intelligent, good judgment, and one of the very best all round men in the state. The Montgomery County Monitor remarks: “Who said that North Georgia would staud aside and let us name the next governor? The idea is rather fishy.” We guess that since Hon. Dupont Guerry has an nounced anti-whiskey, the Monitor inear s the idea is merely “moon shine” up in N. G. The negroes and the negropho! ist in the Ecumenical Methodist council now sitting in London are giving the usual amount of foolish gabble to the world about the South, and ihe English are slobbering over them, forgetful of the many thous and negroes *hey have lynched in South Africa and elsewhere simply to rob them of their country. What infamous hypocrite these English puritans are any way. Mr. McKinley in his late Buffalo speech Thursday is reported to have said, “If perchance some of our tar iffs are no longer needed for reve nue or to encourage and protect our industries at home,why should they not be employed to extend and pro mote our markets abroad.” \Vm L. Wilson our great Southerner h dead, but Mr.. Grover Cleveland still lives to read this utterance with interest. It looks as if the place offered Howison on the Schley Board of inquiry was a rude attempt to put up a job on Admiral Schley, which being detected required an abrupt breaking up of the same. He h h been kiDdly advised to step down and cut and of course will not a’ tempt to remain. What can h« thought of an admiral on th8 retir ed list who would be guilty of try ing to pursuade the world he cou d set impartially in a cas ■ after hav ing almost personally slandered the one he sits to try? It is simply scandalous. Mrs. Felton in the Atlanta Jour nal of Saturday last took the words out our mouth when she opened «>n that ecumenical council sitting in L >ndon. The trouble with us was we didn’t know we had then, until snr- said them but they are the ones we want for our use. When she liken* the fiend which that religious body defends who is burned aiive by outraged husbands and father*, to 11 mad dog many a man will recog nise the word as most singularly anDropriafe spelt backward or for ward, for if the God of the innocent and pu r e has not damned such a wretch to everlasting fire there is n W o use for a hell, and the brg.nnlng of bis punishment by fire 13 merely preliminary to bis fate. THE SIZE OF THE COTTON CROP. The question of the probable size of the cotton crop this year is exer cising the minds of not only the South, but the whole world. Ol course the planter is anxious to know, because the value of his crop, when out of the hands of specula tors are determined on the basis ol supply and demand. There is a va riety of opinions mainly because different parts of the cotton belt have been differently effected by the heat and by the rains, floods, la bor. and even other causes like in sects, etc Whatever will enable the public to form au opinion has been sought. The state of Texas lias been the mam object of inquiiy as the size of the crop there materially influ ences the market. Any source of information from Texas is general ly sought with interest by all. A ietfer from that state was re cently (dated 10th irist.) received here which adds something to our source of information. A gentle man who is engaged in the business of drumming for a large machinery company and traveis over almost the whole of the state declares that it is his belief not a half crop will be made. It can be stated that he is an experienced cotton planter of Texas and is able to judge the con dition of the crop from ch»3e person able observation. We give the re port for what it is worth. Telfairville Sept. 12th.- Miss Minnie Wil- i liams, one of Macon’s very aftrac j five and most highly 7 accomplished young ladies is the guest of Mrs. i Eu!a McNorril. , Rev, and Mrs R E.

Y M not, something must be f wrong with its food. If the | mother’s milk doesn’t nour- J ish it, she needs SCOTT’S §■ EMULSION. It supplies the elements of fat required for the baby. If baby is not nourished by its artificial food, then it requires Scott's Emulsion ? Half a teaspoonful three t * or four times a day in its bottle will have the desired f effect. It seems to have a I magical effect upon babies 1 and children. A fifty-cent bottle will prove the truth of our statements. Lawtonyille. Correspondence Citizen. Sept. 12.—A little rain would do this community good, as we have not had any in two weeks Mr Rub8 Chance visited his son at Sylvania Saturday. Mr. and Mrs. E. E.

We are afraid fall not only affords us this privilege of a good time for sleeping, but will bring on our com munity chills and fever. It is also pleasant in the day. Good cotton picking time. Mr. Ed Joiner and family have moved from our viilage. A great many from this section anticipate visiting Waynesboro when Sam Jones will lecture.

For years I suffered from dyspepsia, at times causing me to stay in bed and causing me unfold agony. I am completely cured by Kodol Dyspepsia Cure.
