WARMLY INDORSED BY HIS
HOME PEOPLE.
A muss meeting of the citizens of
Coweta was held in the court-house
Tuesday to indorse Hon. Hewlette A.
Hall for Attorney-General, and to give
public expression to the high esteem in
which he is hold by his home people.
The meeting was presided over by
Major W. A. Turner, and Mr. T. B.
McRitchie was made secretary. In
stating the object of the meeting Major
Tumor paid a fine tribute to Mr. Hall-
referring in moHt cordial and appre
ciative termB to his ability as a lawyer,

to his strong Christian character and
blameless life. In appointing Mr. Hall

ters of the State as a man of unblemish
ed probity and n lawyer of the highest

The resolutions were heartily seconded
by Judge A. D. Freoman, Judge W. A.
Post, Messrs. W. C. Wright, R. 0.

of Mr. Hall’s high standing with his
home people. The resolutions were
adqpted by a rising vote.
serves re-election upon the record he
has made in that office as well as
upon his merits as a man.
’Little Joe" allows that he’ll keep
it.
A GOOD MAN TO KEEP IN OFFICE.
Hon. 0. B. Stevens, of Terrell, an-
' nounces this week for re-election as
- Railroad Commissioner, and that he
will be the choice of the people by an
overwhelming majority in the coming
State primary is as well assured as any
thing could be that hadn’t already hap
pened. He is opposed by Col, J. A.
Perry, a lawyer of Lawrenceville; but
as there are already threo lawyors on
the Railroad Commission—one of whom
is Standing for re-election, and is with
out opposition —it is not likely that the
■ voters of the State will be inclined to
further pack the Commission with
members of the legal profession by add
ing another lawyer to the board.
The original Act of the General As
sembly creating the Railroad Commis
sion provided that one member should
be a lawyer, one a practical railroad
man, and one a business man. The
Act of UK'S changed the composition of
the board by adding two members.
When the Commission was reorganized
under the new Act Gov. Smith appoint
ed Hon. S. G. McEendon and Judge
Geo. Hillyer, both lawyers, and Hon.
Fuller E. Calloway, a business man.
The latter subsequently resigned, and
Gov. Smith appointed Hon. Murphy
Candler, another lawyer, to fill the un
expired term of Mr. Calloway. Hon.
Warner Hill, also a lawyer, and Hon.
0. B. Stevens, farmer and business
man, held over. When McLendon was
suspended from office by Gov. Smith,
and the act of suspension was later
A-ont'irmod by the Legislature, Gov.
Brown appoiated Hon. Jas. F. Gray,
an experienced railroad man of Savan
nah. to fill the vacancy caused by Mc
Lendon’* suspension. As the board
stands now, therefore, Chairman Hill
and Judge HUlyer (lawyers,) are hold
overs, and Candler, (lawyer,) Gray,
(railroad expert.) and Stevens (far
mer and business man.) are seeking re-
election. Mr. Stevens is the only one
of the three who has opposition, and his
opponent is a lawyer. If the latter
should be elected there would be four
lawyers on the board and one railroad
expert, while the business and farming
interests would be unrepresented.
For these reasons, if for none other,
we feel sure that Mr. Stevens will be
re-elected. As a matter of fact,
he is one of the ablest and most
useful members who has ever served
on the Railroad Commission, and de-
HANDY.
Rev. Frank Amis filled his regular
appointment at Elim Saturday and
Sunday. On account of the rain Sun
day morning the congregation was
small.
Owing to the continued rains the
farmers are looking decidedly "blue."
The prospects are that they will have
to work their crops until late in the
season, or else "lay-by” in the grass.
Gardens are fine this season, and at
almost every homo there are more
vegetables than the family can consume.
There is also an abundance of apples,
peaches, and blackberries for making
pies, jellies, preserves, pickles, etc.

There la more Catarrh in thla section of the
country than all other diseases put together, and
until the la9t few years was supposed to be incura-
ble. For a great many years doctors pronounced it
a local disease and prescribed local remedies, and
by constantly failing to cure with local treatment,
pronounced it incurable. Science has proven ca
tarrh to be a constitutional disease, and therefore
requires constitutional treatment. Hall’s Catarrh
Cure, manufactured by F. J. Cheney & Co., Tole

Many Sudden Deaths From Poison
ous Rheumatism.
Rheumatism has for years been re
garded as an exceedingly painful dis
ease, but it has only been discovered
within the last few years that it is this
terrible trouble that is either directly
or indirectly causing thousands of
deaths yearly throughout our country.
Rheumatism of the heart, neuralgia of
the heart, paralyse, uric acid poison
ing, are among the most dangerous
forms of the disease. If uric acid is-
allowed to stay i» the system sudden
death can scarcely be averted, but if
any sufferer will go at once to Brown
& Brooks' and get a bottle of Block>-
ine, the guaranteed remedy for rheu
matism, they will positively be cured
Bloodine in large bottles costs 50
cents. In old, chronic cases where
there is acute pain, Bloodine Rheu
matic Liniment should be used with
Bloodine.
