week three car-loads of oats were con

to be mixed to the etxent of about 35
per cent, with barley oats, chaff and
other stuff' as valueless for feed pur
poses as shavings or sawdust.

lion. Hewlette A. Hall, chairman
of the State Democratic Executive
Committee, has issued a stirring ad
dress to the Democrats of Georgia, and
it is a slogan that should arouse the
people and kindle the watchfires from
one end of the State to the other. It is
a bugle call to party duty—-a rallying
cry to loyal Democrats everywhere to
make effective their protest against
Republican misrule and Rooseveltism
by going to the polls next Tuesday and
helping to elect Bryan. Mr. Hall’s ad
dress concludes as follows:
"The Republican party stands for a
strong centralized government and for
a policy destructive of the Constitu
tional rights of the States. The su
premo anil paramount issue in this elec
tion is the preservation of Constitu
tional government and the right of the
people to rule. These are some of the
issues upon which the people of Geor
gia must pass on election day. Are
Georgians ready to give up the princi
ples of Jefferson and Jackson for the
policies of the Republican party, which
has been hold together only by the co
hesive power of pu'-lic plunder? Geor
gia Democrat- have followed the old
(lag in many a battle;- they will not
desert the colors now. They have seen
it ws’ e in triumph and their hearts
have rejoiced; more often they have
seen it go down in defeat and the peo
ple have mourned. While success has
ever gratified and cheered their hearts,
yet defeat has no power to chili the ar
dor of their love for Democratic prin
ciples. The cheering news comes from
every section of the country that the
Democratic party is united, aggressive
and hopeful. The cause is not un
worthy of your active enthusiasm.
Georgia must give Bryan a majority of
the total vote. Let every Democrat
remember that his vote is needed.”

campaign. Even with these things to
overcome, however, Judge Adamson
believes that the Democracy will be
triumphant on Nov. 3.
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
imperfect hearing, and when it is
entirely closed 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; ni.ie cases out of ten
are caused by catarrh, which is noth

mucous surfaces.

Full official returns from all of the

majority of 101.143 over his opponent.

Democratic candidate for Governor of

much lias been considered a laj'ge one,
the total in the election two years

Brown’s total in the recent election
went to 113,555. Carter received 12.-

ocratic Victory.
Columbus Knqulrer-Sun. 27th inat.
udge Wm. C. Adamson spent last
night in the city on route home from
Buena Vista, where he spent yesterday
in the interest of Democracy. Judge
Adamson was seen by an Enquirer-Sun
reporter and asked what he thought of
the prospect for Democratic success
next Tuesday. The Judge, who has
just returned from a two-weeks’ cam
paign tour in New York, New Jersey
and Rhode Island, where he delivered
a number of speeches in the interest of
the National Democratic ticket, was
very hopeful.
1 believe that Bryan will be elect
ed.” said the Judge.
It looks like we have ’em beaten,
if we can only keep ’em so,” ventured
the reporter.
I don’t believe they can beat us
this time. 1 believe that Bryan has
such a lend in New York, Ohio, In
diana, Colorado, and Nebraska that the
Republicans, with all their money and
influence, will be impotent to help
themselves. And the Republican ma
jorities in many of the other States
will be greutly reduced, if not entirely
overcome. I was at committee head
quarters in New York, and took a trip
to Connecticut and Boston on business
for the committee. 1 did not make any
speeches on the trip, but I find that all
the Democrats of the East are going to
vote for Bryan, and nearly every Pop
ulist of the West is going to di the
same thing. I believe that wi'.n the
Australian ballot system, which would
allow workingmen to vote without
their employers knowing how they vo
ted and under which intimidation and
threats would bo ineffective, every
State in the East except Pennsylvania,
Vermont and New Hampshire would go
Democratic this time.
"But the thing in which I am very
much interested at present,” said the
Judge, “is the vote in Georgia. While
I found the woods full of Democratic
speakers and the people filled with en
thusiasm for the Democratic ticket in
the East, while 1 was greeted by the
biggest kind of audiences, the thing
that most interests me right now is the
vote in Georgia. 1 want the Georgia
people to go to the polls and vote. It
is necessary for them to do so. I am
not urging as to how they shall vote,
because 1 have such confidence in their
integrity, honesty and patriotism as to
believe that when they get to the polls
the large majority of them will vote
for Democracy. No State but Georgia
requires the electoral ticket to receive
a majority of the votes cast in an elec
tion. but if the Democratic ticket in
Georgia does iiot receive a majority it
throws the election of Presidential
electors into the Legislature, and the
Republican party, which is in power,
will not permit the Georgia Legisla
ture to select electors if the vote of
Georgia should be necessary to cast the
deciding vote. In the meantime every
opponent of Democracy in Georgia is
being urged to go to the polls and vote,
and they are going. Every black and
white Republican will be there and
vote for Taft, and the others who are
opposed to Democracy will be there.
They are going to do all in their power
to prevent the Democratic ticket from
receiving a majority of the votes, so
as to throw the matter into the Legis
lature. The Republicans are doing ev
erything possible to defeat Bryan. In
fact, the followers of all the other
parties are fighting Bryan. They are

having nothing to say against the other
candidates, which shows that in Bryan
they recognise the man whom they will
have to beat. They know the fight is
between Bryan and Taft, with the
chances strongly in favor of Bryan,
and the combination is against him. 1
am much concerned about the vote of
Georgia. While I don’t believe that
the combination will be able to prevent
Bryan receiving a majority, if Georgia
would give Bryan 100,000 or more votes
this time it would h ive a wonderfully
moral effect upon those fellows who
are talking about cutting down our
