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 or ever can be the people’s party. It is essentially a party of the people and for the people. Dethrone and hurl down from their high places those in power now and the republi can party and you will see prosper! ty return to this country. It is our religious duty to defeat the republi cans. We can do it and we must do it. The republican party is not now and never has been in sympathy with the great masses of the plain people of our country. It has fos tered monopolies and trusts and has Citizens of Cochran are steps to build a cotton mill.

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.

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 en wheat field. The beautiful grow ing grain fields seem to be the spe cial pride of the farmer. Mr. J. H. M. Cliett is wrestling with the chills. He was very sick last week, but is better now. Our school, under the tutorship of Miss Barfield, is getting along nice ly. She has a full school, having re ceived, since Prof. Lamar’s death, all the pupils of that school. Miss Bar- field is one of the best disciplinari ans we have known since the public school system was established. Candidates! Still they come. But what is the matter? We hear of no one. who seems to have a hankering to go to Atlanta. We talked to two of Fort Yalley’s most prominent men yesterday. Both said they couldn’t afford to go to Atlanta, as it would cost'more than the office would pay. Our chaingang, under charge of our clever superintendent, Mr. Har ry Coffee, is in fine shape. We dare say our commissioners could not pick the eounty and get a better man. Commissioner Hays deserves much credit for the able .manner in which he managed the financial part of the business.

Well, it puts onthe gear every once in a while and rains. The music pupils of Henderson gave a reception last Friday evening at the residence of Mr. and Mrs. C. Pearce. Everybody had a nice time, but they would have had a better one if it had not rained. The recep tion was from 4:30 to 8, and tea was served at about 7. Messrs. J. H. Wimberly, C. Pearce, J. W. Hodge and son went up to Macon last Friday to see Dewey,but it rained so they could not get to see him. Miss Lucy Eicklighter came to Henderson last Saturday, and lec tured to the ladies Saturday and Sunday, evenings. Misses Mattie Pierce and Alice Barfield went out in the country and spent a day with the family of Mr. J. L. Eubanks. The .time for the April picnic is not fay off. t arn always glad when that time comes. Mr. J. L. Eubanks went to Perry on business last week. Mr. j. H.

MERITORIOUS PREPARATION. The Porto Rica question seems to be causing the republicans much trouble, in congress and among the “faithful” of that party in several states. They are not yet able to see and follow “their plain duty.” This week may be devoted to dismission in the senate, with a party caucus necessary to bring about a vote in accord ■ with the wishes of the ad ministration. — . Loud’s postal bill has been defeat- ed again, this time by the decisive vofeuf 162 to 119. As it has been devfeated by three successive con gresses, it is improbable that the measure will|again be urged. A large share of the honor of defeating the bill is properly claimed by the dem- crats, as toe negative vote was east principally by democratic members.

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.
