A STRONG APPEAL. Chairman Neel Wants Every Democrat at the PoIJs for Bryan and Muddox. Headquarters Democratic Exec utive Committee, Seventh Congressional District. Borne, Ga., Oct. 22,1900. Ed. Messenger:— The National eleotion occurs on Tuesday, Nov. 6, 1900. It is now only a few days until that time. The purpose of this letter is to mnke an earnest appeal to yon, and through you to every Democrat in yonr county to go to the polls election day and cast a ballot. There appears now to be great apathy among Democrats in Georgia, resulting from oyer-confidence. On every .side the statement can be beard that Maddox has a walk-oyer for Congress, and that Bryan will carry the State by an overwhelm ing majority. This idea prevails to such an extant that many Democratic vote s may decide that their votes are not needed and remain awuy from the polls on election day. There is danger in indifference. Many an eleotion has been lost by it. It is learned that the Re publicans are, iu a quiet way, making a diligent effort for Mc- Kinley in Georgia. In several of the£counties of the 7th District they are claiming majorities. Ad •ttort is being made by the Pop ulist candidate for Coogress in this district to win the Republi can vote. There is no danger it ; Democrats will wake up and act, I but it will be hazardous to as ’ aurne that everything is all right and let the election go by default. It is believed to be the duty of every good citizen to cast his 1 ballot. The responsibility of gov- I orument is in *ouie measure oust i upon every citizen. Judge Maddox has made an I ideal representative in Congress. He is always on the alert to serve t his people. Ho has given bis , whole time, thought and energies i to the service of his constituents, lie has taken high rank as a rep resentative and made a national reputation as a legislator, it should be a pleasure to every Democrat iu the district to vote for Maddox. And Brynu ought to carry the district by a great majority. He is making a gallant and gaining is stirring the people to great eu- I t iusiasui. He has pushed the I tight for the common people into j the very temple of the.iuoney- I obaugers, and is causing them to \ tremble with apprehension. He i is equipped with a great heart, a i Mighty intellect and the con- J sciousnoss of a just cause. He is everywhere iuspiiing his friends j will confidence and tilling his I enemies with fear. I appeal to Democrats iu the i Seventh district to bestir theni | Ives for the success of the i P *rtv. On November 6th let every '■ v.fter exercise his franchise. Make a sacrifice of time and business, if necessary, to get to the polls, kb well the majority. Eyen if there were no opposition, it is import ant to have a fnll vote. It is a favorite trick of Northern and Western Republicans to gnv the Congressmen from the Booth on the size of the vote on which they come to Congress, to charge in timidation in elections, and to assert that because they are elected by such a small vote that they represent nobody. Judge Maddox should have at least ten thousand majority. He can have it if his friends will only go to the polls. I ask every Democrat who reads this to pledge himself to cast a ballot on November 6th, and give one day to the cause of good government. W. J. Neel, Ch. Cong. Ex. Com, 7th Diet.

There is only oue way to oure deafness, and that is by constitutional remedies. Deaf ness is caused by an inflamed condition of the muoous lining of the Eustachian tube. When this tube is inflamed you have a rum bling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed, deafneess is the result, and unless the inflammation can be tiken out and this tube restored to its normal condition, bearing will be destroyed forever. Nine cases out of teu are caused by Catarrh, which is nothing but an inflamed condition of the mucous surfaces. We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case of Deafness (caused by catarrh) that cau not be cured by Hall’s Catarrh Cure. Send for circulars free. F. J.
