Politics are getting warm in
several Georgia counties rath¬
er early.
Oklahoma is now a state
and a new star will be added
to Old Glory July 4 , I9O8.
And still the money con¬
tinues to flow into New York
from Europe. A little com¬
ing our way wouldn’t look
bad.
Since Atlanta’s population
has increased to 168,000 she
thinks she’s It, spelt with a
big “J.’ 1 We think about
the same.
Georgia is not the only state
in the union that has voted
prohibition. Alabama has also
gone dry. Several states are
apt to follow presently.
Led by women strikers
rocked trolley cars in Louis¬
ville, Ky. These Kentucky
women surely are intending
to enter professional baseball.
Uncle Sam has now come
to the rescue of the banks and
will issue $i 5 o,ooo,ooo in
canal bonds and treasury
notes. It is to be hoped that
w: will get a few of these
treasury notes.
Because their wages had
been cut from $1,50 to $1.25
per clay, Italian laborers at
Gadsden, Ala., got even by
cutting the points off their
shovels so they would hold
about one-third less.
The Home Tribune is ask¬
ing who is the greatest man in
Georgia and also asks all not
to speak at once. We would
like to inform them that to
the best of our knowledge he
has been dead several years.
President Roosevelt has
called a meeting of the gov¬
ernors of all the states and
territories to meet at the
White House, for the purpose
of considering the resources

perhaps your voice will be
needed.

An exchange,says the Sum
merville News, says that the
biggest trust on earth is the
country newspaper. It trusts
everybody, gets cussed for
trusting, mistrusted for cuss

gets cussed for busting. There
is but one way to bust this
trust —pay your SUBSCRIP

What you done all summer, say? *
Wliar’s your clothes so fine?
How you use to sport aroun’;
How you use to shine.
How you use to frolic ’bout;
How you use to play,
Never seem to care at all
Till summer pass away.
’Member how I talk to you
’Way long in last June?
Better hurry up, says I,
Winter’s cornin’ soon;
But you jes kept on at play,
Never cared at all;
Now, Mr. Jack Frost's got you,
Got you in de fal.’

MADDOX AND HIS METHODS.
Considerable important bus¬
iness was transacted at the
last term of the Cherokee
Circuit court. Five murder
case-5 as well as a number of
other matters, were disposed
of in a sitting of five clays.
We think this a rather re¬
markable record and one
worthy of reflection b) tax
payers and citizens in view of
the fact that wfien the Solici¬
tor General saves the county
time and money, he likewise
protects that closest friend of
man—his pocketbook.
In numerous courts such
cases would have consumed
many weeks of time, requiring
the attendance of good citi¬
zens and interfering with their
personal and individual affairs
to such an extent as to entail
great loss, aside from the
wearying monotomy of “hard
sitting” and unpleasant de
tails.
It is all right if spring plow¬
ing is not pressing and the
fall crops are gathered of if
trade is a little dull to ride to
town for a day to see what is
going on, and take no active
part. But after all court is a
serious thing, and to the man
who has to go—and all must
serve at times—it must be a
satisfaction to have such an
official as the present encum¬
bent at the.helm, whose sys¬
tematic methods of organiza¬
tion run the wheels of justice
steadily and thoroughly with¬
out by-play or infringement
upon the time of those in at¬
tendance further than required
by circumstances and condi¬
tions.
The record he has made
speaks for itself and we are
inclined to believe that his
official conduct has impressed
itself in practical way upon
the people of the Cherokee
Circuit.—Dade County Senti¬
nel.
Hon Gordon Lce , con
gressman from the Seventh
Congressional District, was in
Trenton Wednesday shaking
hands with his many Dade
county friends. Mr. Lee will
be in the race again for the
position which he now holds,
and there is no reason for op
position. Mr. Lee has repre¬
seated the Seventh District
for two terms, and roads,
P“ blic buildings and every
<! uestion that is of im P ortance
to our people has Deen un

elected, and we are satisfied
that he will be. Opposition
to him will be entirely political
and personal, and both should
be cut out in the interest of
the public service. Mr. Lee
is a valuable citizen .and offi¬
cial and the people are in
favor of keeping him in con
gress.—Dade County Sentinel

J. B. Holst Company has
brought suit against the Central
of Georgia Railway Company for
the recovery of the value of
twenty-three bales of cotton
which were consumed by a fire
in the cotton yard of the com
pmy on the 16th of November,
19057 The value of the cotton is
placed at $1,367.16 and they
allege damages in the sum of
$2,000. Weil Brothers have
brought suit against the same

bales of cotton in the same tire,
the value of which they place at
$522.94, and allege damages ' to
the extent of $1,000.

SHAKE INGREDIENTS
WELL IN BOTTLE TO MIX
Tells How To Prepare a
Mixture To Overcome
Dread Disease.
To relieve the worst forms of
Rheumatism, take a teaspoonful
of the following mixture alter
each meul and at bedtime:
Fluid Extract Dandelion, one
half ounce; Compound Kargon,
one ounce; Compound Syrup
Sarsaparilla, three ounces.
These harmless ingredients can
be obtained from our home drug¬
gists, and are easily mixed by
shaking them well in a bottle.
Relief is generally felt from the
first few doses.
This prescription, states a well
known authority in a Cleveland
morning paper, forces the clogged
up, inactive kidneys to filter and
strain from the blood the
poisonous waste matter and uric
acid, which causes Rheumatism.
As Rheumatism is not only the
most painful and tortuous di¬
sease, but dangerous to life, this
simple recipe will no doubt be
greatly valued by many sufferers
here at home, who should at once
prepare the mixture to get this
relief.
It is said that a person who
would take this prescription
regularly, a dose or two daily, or
even a few times a week, would
never have serious Kidney or
Urinary disorders or Rheuma¬
tism.
Cut this out and preserve it.
Good Rheumatism prescriptions
which really relieve are scarce,
indeed, and when you need it,
you want it badly. Our drug¬
gists here say they will either
supply these ingredients or make
the mixture ready to take, if any
of our readers so prefer.
