A GREAT VICTORY FOR DEMOC
RACY.
Tne election of Hon. Jos. M. Brown
for Governor by one hundred and ten
thousand majority last Wednesday was
a «reat triumph for the State Democ
racy, and a rebuke to independentism
in Georgia that will undoubtedly be
felt in the coming Presidential elec
tion. There was never any doubt as
to the result of the Governorship con
test. A party wet-nursed by such a
punk-burner as Willy Kandy Hearst
and sponsored by such a Hilly dreamer
as .John Temple Graves could not, in
the nature of things, have any standing
in Georgia; hence, from the outset the
candidacy of Yancey Carter was abso
lutely hopeless, and he was not taken
seriously at any stage of the campaign.
This wus comfortingly evidenced by
the fact that he failed to carry a sin
gle county, receiving less than fifteen
thousand votes out of a total of one
hundred and twenty odd thousand.
This, of course, is the end of Yancey,
and it is not likely that we shall hear
of him again in Georgia politics. As
for Hearst, he may find other dupes in
other Status to exploit his peculiur po
litical dogmas—so long as his money
lasts, at least -but it is a safe predic
tion that he will not again invade Geor
gia, even under the aegis of the facile
and flamboyant Graves.
The only other State contest settled
in Wednesday’s election was that for
the office of Pension Commissioner.
The Legislature, at its recent session,
passed an act making this office elec
tive, and ns this action was subsequent
to the State primary, it was not deemed
practicable to call a primary to nomi
nate a candidate. All candidates,
therefore, were voted for in the gen
eral election. There were live candi
dates in the race, but the returns show
that, the present Pension Commission
er, Hon. John W. Lindsey, received
more votes than all his competitors put
together, and he has been elected for
another term.
The returns show that the disfran
chisement amendment was ratified by
a majority of thirty or thirty-five thou-
snnd.
West Point Herald: “Hon. W. C.
Adamson, our genial and efficient Con
gressman, honored our city with a
short visit Saturday afternoon. The
Judge is always intent upon looking
♦Her the interests of his constituents ,
and is deservedly appreciated by his
hosts of friends, not only here, but
throughout the district.”
Italian emigration to the United
Slates is still decreasing. During Au-
ugst only 4,262 emigrants left Italy for
America, while 20,582 returned home.
The number of Italian emigrants to
North and South America from Jan. 1
to Aug. 31 was 81,115, while in the
same period 203,449 returned to their
native land. Of this number 104,445
went from the United States.
Just eighty-three Coweta suffragists
indicated a preference for Yancey
Carter in Wednesday's election—
eighty-three and no more! This is the
most pitiful showing ever made in Cow
eta county by a candidate for the high
office of Governor.
Savannah Press: “Judge Adamson
states the situation very accurately
when he says that the influences which
have heretofore contributed to Demo
cratic defeat are for Democracy this
time, and that therefore we are going
to win.”

Confederate Mothers.
In response to Col. Carmical’s re
quest that the names of living mothers
of Confederate veterans be sent to
The Herald and Advertiser. I write to
say that Mrs. Mary E. Leigh, widow
of Mr. Benj. Leigh, residing at 86
Jackson street, this city, deserves to
be on this roll of fame. Immediately |
descended from the Houston-Culber^on ]
families—names illustrious in the his
tory of Georgia and Texas—the fire of
patriotism glowed inherent in her |
veins, and no “Woman of the Confed
eracy” ever wrought more nobly than
she in directing her slaves, and making
with her own hands those garments of
warmth and comfort, not only tor the
two brave soldier boys that marched
away from her own home to fight their
country’s battles, but other members
of Co. A., 12th Georgia Battalion, who
were enduring with them the rigors of
a Northern climate. When the troops
were returning from Pensacola she met
the trains and carried many long clus
ters of cherries, from a large cherry
orchard in front of her beautiful coun
try home, to give to the soldiers in the
coaches and on top of the cars, where
they had climbed to get a first view of
home. Is not Mrs. Ben Wright also
the mother of a soldier boy who drew
his sword in defense of our fair South
land? Grim war—
"Kenavo tho swnril, but not the hand that drew
And B truck fur liberty the dyintr blow."

YOU NOTICE HOW
Deafness Cannot Be Cured
by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deaf
ness, and that is by constitutional rem
edies. Deafness is caused by an in
flamed condition of the mucous lining of
the eustachian tube. When this tube
is inflamed you have a rumbling sound
or imperfect hearing, and when it is
entirely dosed deafness is the result,
and unless the inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to its
normal' condition, hearing will be de
stroyed forever: nine cases out of ten
are caused by catarrh, which is noth
ing but an inflamed condition of the
mucous surfaces
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of deafness (caused by ca
tarrh) that cannot be cured by Hall’s
Cuturrh Cure. Send for circulars free.

Dressy, stylish, distinguished in clothes, some men al
ways look. Do you know how they do it? We’ll tell
you. They buy here
Hart Schaffner & Marx
Clothes. That means all-wool, perfect tailoring, and
correct style to begin with. They buy, in addition to
a fancy weave suit, a black thibet or cheviot, or a blue
serge; and occasionally change oft’ for a week, get the
suit they’re not wearing pressed, give it a little rest
in the closet, and then put it on fresh and new looking.
You can do that, and you ought to; it’s clothes-
economy. We’ll see that you’re dressed right all the
time if you say so. This store is the home of Hart
Schaffner & Marx clothes.
$17.50 TO $30.
Our line of popular priced suits at $7.50 to $15 is
one of the strongest ever seen in this section. Boys’
and young men’s suits made in the new, snappy styles.
The New Styles in Fall Regals
Every man in Newnan should drop in and see the
handsome new styles in our complete stock of Fall
Regals.
There’s a Regal custom style to suit everyone’s
preference, and you can be certain that your Regals
will have the same true shape when you are ready to
discard the shoes as they did the day you bought them.
Furthermore you can be sure also that the Regal
quarter-size litting will be just as smooth and com
fortable the first day as the last.
The truth is, we have given so much attention to
the shoe business that we think we are better prepar
ed than most stores to supply the wants of all the
trade. We have secured the best lines we know of,
and guarantee any shoe under the following brands to
give satisfaction: “Star Brand” shoes for all the
family; “Regal” and Florshium shoes for men;
“Dorothy Dodd’’ shoes for ladies, and Goodman’s and

for Governor, was beaten nearly three

Wednesday’s election, although a
quiet one, was tremendously eventful
in results.
Old Coweta kept her Democracy on
straight Wednesday, as she always does.
Boor Yancey! Perhaps he will know-
better next time.
