After the declaration Of the basic
principles of the party, honest and
economical government, the greatest
good to the greatest number, justice
to all and special privileges to none,
opposition to republicanism comes
next in order.
It can be accepted as a fac? that
the worst the democratic party can
do would be infinitely preferable to
the best the republicans will do.
This is proven by the political histo
ry of the last twenty years. "While
the republican platforms and speak
ers have made special pleas and en
ticing promises, the result has con
tinually been service to the rich
classes in antagonism to the needs
of the great masses lower down in
the financial scale.
As to national currency, tariff tax
ation, colonial expansion, interna
tional and interstate commerse, and
all other matters of national concern
to the people, the two great parties
occupy diametrically opposite posi
tions.
In the republican mind,favoritism
runs riot, and the wishes of manu
facturing and commercial trusts, na
tional bankers, and other great ag
gregations of money,are more potent
than the needs of the people gener
ally^
Democracy opposes all this, and
on that line the party of the people
is preparing to win in the "conflict
this* year.
Practically on this line, Gov. Can
dler, in a recent speech in Atlanta,
said
The republican party has defied
the constitution and the laws of the
land from the date of its birth to the
present day. The democratic party
is, the only party that ever has been

is essentially a party of the people

The growth of towns is recogniz
ed as a sign of prosperitj'. Well,
the towns are larger—how about the
prosperity? There are cheap board
ing houses, and heads of families
do chores, while the children have
school advantages. I notice that one
man is driving a laundry wagon
since he left' the farm. Others are
not doing so well. The towns grow
and fungus grows. Men are too
proud at first to acknowledge their
mistakes, and the pinch tightens un
til they can’t correct them. So they
continue to loll about town.

Farmers in this section are anx
iously awaiting suitable weather to
plant their corn crop.
We interviewed several good far
mers a few days ago, asking them
what amount, of cdrn and cotton
they were going to plant. Each one
“gave in” much more grain than
cotton. The information received
from them goes to show that the
farmers are not so deluded by the
increased price of cotton as to neg
lect the crops that are the staff of
life and the salvation of our coun
try. We have only two farmers in
this section who have not the gold

ing grain fields seem to be the spe
cial pride of the farmer.

United States Health Reports.
After exposing and condemning manv
of the doubtful and even injurious prep
arations for tha hair and scalp which are
' produced and put on the market by dif
ferent manufacturers,it is indeed a great
relief to be able to make a report upon
so worthy a preparation as “Anti-kink ”
It ri a preparation that will straighten
and take the kink out of curly hair, and
is manufactured and sold to tbe trade by
Darragh & Rich, of New York City. In
common justice to these gentlemen, we
as heartily commend it as we have in the
past condemned many so-called hair
growers and restorers, and other prepa
rations for the hair and scalp.
For some days “Anti-kink” has been
the subject of a painstaking investiga
tion on the part of the compilers of these
Reports, and a spirit of fairness impels
the statement that the most searching
examination brought to light much iu.
connection with “Anti-kink” that is wor
thy of the highest consideration; in fact,
it in every respect merits our highest
praise, and affords the most gratifying
results and absolute safety in its use -
There, is no head of hair, that is so
kinky or curly, no matter what the na
tionality or color may be, that a thirty
(30) day treatment of “Anti-kiak” will
not straighten out in a most gratify idg
maimer.
If properly and vigorously applied, as
directed, it will impart such a lustre and
brilliancy to the hair as will make the
nse of all other preparations as Brfllian-
tine entirely unnecessary.
We have devoted much time and labor
to a thorough investigation of this truly
wonderful hair preparation,in order that
we might mtelligently advise our read
ers all over this broad land, whose inqui
ries reach us by every mail as to its vir-;
tue3 and worth, and it. is with a high
degree of satisfaction that we find the
results of our investigation warrant us
in riving “Anti-kink” the strongest ed
itorial and official endorsement of the
United States Health Reports. Those
who follow the suggestions herein con
tained may rest .assured that in every es
sential feature “Anti-kink” will be found
to be a most- excellent article, and sure
to achieve success where directions are
followed. Salesmen wanted,
