Newnan, Ga., Friday, September 7,1888.
Oommuuicated.
The Agricultural Department.
Mr. Editor:—Having overlooked the
reply of “Ripples” in The IIeralH
and Advertiser of 27th July, and not
getting paper of August 3d, I did not
know until a short time ago that he had
replied to my article.
“Ripples” gives a tabular statement
of some expenses of the Department,
and says that he gives the information
because I “seemed to be a little incred
ulous.” lie would have it appear that
I am astonished at what he discloses—
that I am incredulous that such things
should occur. I am unwilling for “Rip
ples” to place me in a false light. By
what word or words did I indicate that
I was incredulous ? He mentions items
the use of which, in all departments, is
well known. And have not these or
similar things been published in the an
nual expenses of the Department since
its organization ? And have they not
been read and known and passed upon
by our Governors, and investigated by
a committee ? Why should I be incred
ulous about things that are so well
known, and which, I suppose, every
body knew except “Ripples” and his
54 members of the Legislature who
were farmers ?
“Ripples” complains .that there were
two subscriptions to the Macon Tele
graph paid by the Department for one
year. But the same defect in his vision
that caused him to see a “thousand”
items of private use in the expenses of
the Department, and caused him to
read the salary of the Commissioner
as $3,000, and to put down the annual
expenses of the Department at more
than $40,000, is still troubling him. In
this instance it makes him see double.
Let him notice and he will see that
there is but one subscription at the
same time. One is up to January 22,
1887, and another from January 22,1887,
to July 22, 1887.
“Ripples,” in his first communication
on the Department, said the cost to run
the Department by the year was $50,-
450 00. He has now fallen back to the
report of the investigating committee
of 18S3, and says they reported the ex
pense for that year to be $26,318 03.
Here his vision gets wrong again. They
reported the expense of the Agricul
tural Department proper to be $13,-
200 00 at that time. (See page 2 of re
port.) There was an expense for in
spection and analyses of fertilizers be
sides amounting to $13,118 03. Both
put together amounted to $26,31S 03.
But the Agricultural Department can
not be charged with the inspection and
analyses of fertilizers. The law has put
the direction and supervision of both
in the hands of the Commissioner; but
they are distinct and separate—both as
to duties and expenses.
The “crookedness” of the Depart
ment is a favorite expression of “Rip
ples.” But 1 must take him to task for
some crookedness in his replies to my
articles. He says that the “toiling peo
ple are taxed to pay for the rent of
wells, and for ice to go in the water,
Piiat the heads of departments and
their families may use.” This is the
same as charging positively that the
heads of departments rent wells and
buy ice to go in the water for their
“family” use, and then make the State
pay the expense. This would be a very
grave offense, and no man should make
the charge against any official, except
on positive and unmistakable proof.
Is the Commissioner guilty of this great
offense ? I see no evidence of it in the
records and reports. Let “Ripples”
produce, the proof.
Again, “Ripples” says: “I notice that
to one man the Commissioner pays as
high as $12 per bushel for kaffir corn,
and to another only $4 per bushel”;
and he adds: “But, then,what kinsfolk
have to sell is a little better, than what
other people have.” I quote his exact
language."This language implies, plain
ly and without a doubt, the positive
charge that the Commissioner, in buy
ing the seed of kaffir corn, gave to one
man $12 a bushel because he was kin to
him, while he gave to another only $4
per bushel. This is a fair construction,
and the only construction that can be
put upon the language. Is this charge
true? Has the Commissioner done this
exceedingly dishonorable thing? By
reference to the report of expenditures
from which the items about the kaffir
' corn were taken, 1 see that in 1S86 the
Commissioner bought of one H. J.
Moats kaffir corn—five bushels, at $12
per bushel, and on May 14, 1887, when
t he season was far advanced, lie bought
of J. H. Watkins one-half bushel of
kaffir corn for $2—or $4 per bushel.
The difference in the time of buying
would reasonably account for the
change in price. Seed of some new pro
duction, or a new kind when first in
troduced, will often sell very high, but
in a short time, when the excitement
is over and it is late in the season, the
price falls very much. Xow, can “Rip
ples” sustain this charge ? What au
thority or proof has he thatH. J. Moats
is a relative of Commissioner Hender
son? As one who has known Jack Hen
derson longer and better than any man
in this county, I deny botlf the forego
ing charges, and I call upon “Ripples”
$o produce the proof, or his authority
for saying that the said Moats is a kins
man of the Commissioner. And I also
call upon him for the proof of the oth
er charge : that the Commissioner was
using the public funds to furnish water
and ice for his family use. If he can
not or does not produce the proof jvhen
thus called on, I then call on him, as
an honorable man, to take both charges
back, and to admit in the same way he
has made them—that is, over his sig
nature—that he has made unfair
charges, and charges that are untrue,
against the Commissioner of Agricul
ture. What will he do about it ? Let
us hear from him. Let me say to
“Ripples” that H. J. Moats is in no
way related to Commissioner Hender
son—no more than “Ripples ’ is. This
I .say upon authoritative evidence, and
can produce it if “Ripples” calls upon
me for it. And let me commend to
“Ripples” the consideration of how
exceedingly wrong it is to bring charges
against persons, in office or out of of-
fice—particularly such charges as affect
their character—except on the most
positive and incontestible proof that
such charges are true. A Farmer.
Trial by Jury Abolished in Austria.
Pal) Mall Gazette.
A very severe measure was promul
gated at Vienna yesterday, and there
is much question as to the motives
which have inspired it. Trial by jury
in the case of crimes and offenses com
mitted by Socialists or Anarchists has
been suspended by ministerial decree
for the duration of one year in fifteen
districts in Austria, Bohemia-, Moravia,
Syria and Corinthia, including all the
large cities. The approval of Parlia
ment will of course have to be obtained.
One of the offenses under this act is
the possession of explosive materials.
In order to fully appreciate the signif
icance of this matter, says the Standard
correspondent, it must be remembered
that the decree will give the govern
ment power in the districts named,
without judicial order or warrant, to
arrest and imprison or expel, not only
suspected persons, but all who shelter
them; to forbid the manufacture, sale
or possession of arms and ammunition;
to prohibit not only public meetings,
but also the assembling of crowds, and
to make most stringent regulations con
cerning passports, and arrivals and de
partures of foreigners. The police will
be at liberty to make domiciliary visits,
and also to search newspaper offices
and take summary proceedings against
publishers and editors.

Quitman Free Press: “Old man
Brown and widow Smith ain’t their
names, but it will answer just as well
as if they were. Old man Brown, as
many are prone to do, had got in debt
some way, and had resorted to the
homestead to save his property. All
went well till Mrs. Brown was one day
taken sick and called to that land where
homesteads are unknown. Old man B’s
creditors learned of this and were fix
ing to close down on the old fellow.
He remembered the homestead he had
had and wished he still had it, but the
stern fact stared him in the face that
he didn’t, and his creditors were begin
ning to crowd him. Then a bright
thought occurred to him. This bright
thought was the widow Smith. He
sent word to her of his condition, and
asked if he might call on ‘business.’
Widow Smith consented,old man Brown
called, and the widow Smith is now Mrs.
Brown Xo. 2, the homestead is .on again,

Down Two Years With Rheumatism
and Now Entirely Well.
I have been troubled with rheumatism - for
two years; had gotten so I could scarcely
walk, and was in pain nearly all the tune.- At
ni°-ht could not sleep for the excrucnuing
pain. The bone in one of nay legs was very
much enlarged, and I fe-sred that amputation
would be necessary. After trying many dn-
ferent patent medicines claiming to cure
rheumatism and other wmplaints, I was -al
most discouraged until about two weeks ?jgo,
when I had to give‘up business, Mr. Wi J.
Willingham, of vour city, hearing of my com
plaint, advised the use of your medicine, and
assured me of his confidence in it as a cure
for rheumatism. I at once purchased a bot
tle, hoping it might relieve me, but not having
much faith in it, or in anything else; t.ut,
thank God, I am very muen relieved, ana-1
firmly believe I tv ill get entirely well. The
swelling has gone down and I am in no pam
whatever. Am at work again, and have been
for several days. Can run up and down the
stairway in factory as- nimbly as ever. I
thank you for this earthly salvation to me.

“Yes,” replied the workingman, “and
1 am a home consumer.”
“True,” responded the manufactur
er, “but you can afford to pay the high
prices because the tariff gives me big
profits, and I am therefore able to pay
you wages in proportion.”
“Why don’t you do so then,” asked
the workingman.
“Because I amnot in the philanthropy
line of business, and I don’t have to.
Labor comes in free of duty, and the
competition of labor governs the rate of
wages.”
“I see,” said the workingman, “I
never could clearly understand before
how the tariff kept up wages, but of
course I see it now.”

, 1 have been a practical druggist in Tyler- for
! a number of years, and In that time have a.nl
j occasion to examine, try, and notice the eject-
of nearly all the highly recommended prepar-
a*ions or patent medio nes on the market, as
I have suffered untold misery in /self, the past
number of years, from a severe form of in
flammatory rheumatism, and could find
nothing to cure or relieve me. . I had almost
drawn a conclusion that all patent medicines
were more or less frauds until about one year
ao-o, I was induced by a friend, now living in
Tyler to try a preparation known as 3 B., or
► ■otanie Blood Balm, and a.ter a long per
suasion on his part, 1 finally, made up ms
mind tQ make on*-more effort to rid mssell
of the terrible affliction; anti now ii affords
me the greatest pleasure of my liie to state to
the citiz ns of Smith county that I amenlire-
iv cured, with no traces of tne disease led,
and all effected by the magic healing proper
ties-of B. B. B., which I consider the grand
est, purest, and most powerful blood remedy
known to man. I have been subject to in
flammatory attacks since ten years of age,^
and uu to the present time have had hnir.,
The last spell came on me in November, 1N», >
over a year aeo, at which 'ime I was connned ,
to my bed for eight weeks, passing the nights \
in misery, with no sleep except when produc
ed by narcotics and various opiates. I he
week previous to using B. B. B. ,up to that
time I had only eaten six meats and could
scarcelv sit up without support; but after us
ing three bottles I was able to relish my
meals and to walk up town, and after six bot
tles had been used, thank heaven, I was en
tirely cured, and not the slightest pain felt
since that time. When I returned to business
in February my weight was 14o pounds, but
oraduallv increased until my regular weight
was again attained, 210 pounds. The noticea
ble fact in what I have so cheerfully stated is,
that this unparalleled and remarkable dis
covery B. B. B. cured me in mid-winter, at
the very time my sufferings and misery were
the greatest. I take it on myself as a practi
cal druggist to. heartily, cheerfully, as well as
conscientiously, recommend this glorious
blood remedy to all sufferers from rheuma
tism or blood troubles, and not only myself,
but the firm of McKay & Adams, who handle
it, will eheerinUy indorse

A lady friend of mine has for several years
been troubled wii li bumps and . imples on her
face and neck, for which she used various
cosmetics in order to remove theffi and beau
tify and improve her complexion; but these
local applications were only temporary and
left her skin in a worse condition. 1
I recommended an internal application—
known as Botanic Blood Balm—which I have
been using and sel-ing about two years; she
used three bottles and nearly all pimples
have disappeared, her skin is soft and smooth
and her general health much improved. She
expresses herself as well satisfied and can
recommend it to all who are thus affected.

Company, Atlanta, Ga.—Gentlemen : I had
suffered from that terrible disease, dyspepsia

Line tried everything I could hear of, and
spent over three hundred dollars in doctor’s
bills, without receiving the slightest benefit,
Undeed., I continued to grow worse. Finally,
after I despaired of obtaining relief, a friend
recommended B. B. B., (Botanio Blood Balm)
and I began using it; not, however, expecting
to be benefited. Alter using half a bottle I
was satisfied I was being benefited, and when
the sixth bottle was used I felt, like a new
man. I would not take $1,000 for the <*ood it :

I have had catarrh of the head for nearly
six years. I went to a noted doctor and he
treated me for it, but could not cure me, he
said. I was over fifty years of age and 1 gave
up to die. I had a distressing cough ; my
eyes were swollen and I am confident I could
not have lived without a change. I sent and
got a bottle of your medicine, used it, and
felt better. Then I got four more, and thank
God! it cured me. Use this any way you
may wish for the good of sufferers.
