Especially on the Pike we presume, Rl ei s ~ There is a greal’ demand throughout the country for pure water, There isalso a mild demand for Bock beer. " T e The Republican party is not expecting any revelations in the Smoot matter until after the November election, i e The King of England’s family name is Wettin, but, if reports are true, his ministers must think it is Buttin, C eele &R GED P 8 QI o “Achistenaya vodka’ is the Russian’s favorite booze. It probably gets easier to pronounce as your jag accumn lates, i e Great cannonading in front of Port Arthur! Isn'tit strange that Port Arthur doesn’t tumble to the racket and fall, sure enough. B U Nkl A man has invented a non-intoxicating whiskey,This may settle the whiskey problem, but the jags we shall have with us always. £y sk e il Its a little early for the sea serpent to be butting in, but he is up against the World’s fair this season and no one can blame him, i b N i | There would perhaps be more retire ments from active politics if it were so the patriots could retire on full pay.— Albany Herald, S : : it e() et The Mayor of Marquette, Mich, went fishing recently and cannot be found. Evidently the snakes bite early up there, wherher the fish do or not. e e By telling all the things that are not true concerning the Kloeckre mystery the Atlanta papers may finally succeed in telling us we know what is true. e e G 4 PGt e The Mobile Register (Dem ) says: ‘Georgia instructed for Parker, There is no_doubt that such action has greatly im proved Parker’s chances. . Why did not Alabama do the fame thing? If Parker *is themanon whom to unite why not say so and rivet the saying with a good resolution’ of instructions? Georgia is all right. See e T The Democrats of Georgia in Conven tion have expressed themselves in no un certain tones as to whom they preter as the nominee of the Democratic party for President. The convention unqualifiedly endorsed the candidacy of Judge Alton B, Parker, of New York, and Georgia's dele gation to the national convention was in structed to vote for him so long as, in the opinion of the majority of the delega tion, there is a reasonable probability of his receiving the nomination, The unit rule was adopted and the Georgia dele gates wiil vote solidly upon all questions before the notional convention, } To the action of the convention. no. Democrat can make objection. The friends of Judge Parker were in the ma jority, and the convention was decidely for him, However, nothing was done that was calculated to embitter any Democrat who may prefer some other candidate for president. f Shiriffs Sale. | rGEORGIA.—Lee County. ~ Will be sold before the Court House door of said County, on the first Tuesday in July next, between the legal] hours of sale, the following property, to-wit: One hundred and one fourth (looY ) acres of land in the Ist, district of Lee County, Georgia, being the North half of lot of land number one hundred and forty-eight (148).
