Is the celebration of July 4th
consistent, at this juncture?
South Georgia is sure to make
successful progress in stock-raising.
Georgia farmers can’t buy farm
products cotinually with profit to
themselves.
Excessive heat caused seveial
deaths in northern and northwest
ern cities last week.
D oubtlees the Filipinos and Por
to Ricans don’t undestand that they
have any cause to celebrate the 4 th
of July.
Athens people will most hospita

Georgia Weekly Press Association
next Tuesday and Wednesday.
The Hawkinsville Dispatch says
the free use of iodine at once reliev
ed a child of that county who was
bitten by a rattlesnake, and most
likely saved the child’s life.
Up to last Friday night 101 car
loads of Georgia peaches had been
shipped to northern and eastern
markets. Nothing has been made
public concerning the prices at
which the fruit was sold.

The Southern railroad authorities
have announced that arrangements
have been made for the sale of 10-,
000 acres of land along the line of
that road in Georgia, to be used to
establish a colon}' of Finlanders.
Gen. Maximo Gomez came to the
United States from Cuba last week.
He has business in New York, and
says his visit has no political signifi
cance whatever. He s praises this
government for its work in Cuba.
Political socialism is steadily
gaining strength throughout the
United States. The contentions of
the ablest writers on the subject are
very insinuating, and a campaign of
education is steadily manipulated.
The legislature of Wisconsin has
refused to enact a law forbidding
marriage between whites and ne
groes. Those legislators should have
extended opportunities in their state
to study the dark side of human na
ture.
From July 25 th to 29 th the Inter
national B. Y. P. U. Convention will
be in session, and on the 23rd and

way will sell tickets at one fare for
the round trip, good to return until
July‘31st. Chicago.

This July will have the unusual
distinction of embracing two full
moons, in the afternoon of the 1st,
and in the morning of the last day.
As there will be two fulls of the
moon, the people should be careful
not to get too full of anything else.

Several Georgia labor unions have
resolved to antagonize the School of
Technology at Atlantis because Pres
ident Hall refused to persuade stu
dents of the school from accepting
positions in the Southern Railway
shops made vacant by striking union
machinists.

Many people believed it then, more
believe it now, and not a few hope
it is true. We are inclined to the
opinion that his nomination by the
republican convention would be
pleasing to democrats generally.’

“Only marriage beats teaching.” Be
that as it may, teaching is doubtless
a fit preparation for matrimony. It
is reasonably certain that a young
woman who can successfully instruct
and confroll a lot of school children
is well qualified to properly manage
a husband.

the hatchet with his old enemy, Ex-
Mayor McKisson, and caused his
convention to praise Senator Fora
ger to the skies and endorse him by
name for re-election. The only ex
planation that Washington can think
of is that Mr. Hanna intends to be
the candidate of Ohio in 1903. and,
to secure fair treatment at the hands
of the Foraker faction, consents to
bury old animosities and tie Foraker
no his chariot by making the senior
senator his candidate for re-election.
Without the help of Hanna every
one knows that Foraker could not
get back to the Senate. If re-elect
ed with Hanna’s aid, common de
cency will compel him to help send
a Hanna delegation to the conven
tion of 1004 and probably go there
in person to make a nominating
speech. If Mr. Hanna really aspires
to the presidency, he is certainly go
ing at his campaign in a masterly
fashion. A presidential aspirant
wants harmony and loyal support at
home, needing to be presented with
enthusiasm and earnestness. If Mr.
Hanna is not a candidate for. the
presidency, he-is at least, in Wash
ington opinion, acting very much
like a man who is or who may wish
to be, and who is planning to have
things well in hand in anticipation
of the fateful hour when he is to de
cide whether to go in or not.”

All doctors have tried to cure Catarrh
by the use of powders, acid gases, inhal

causing them to crack open and bleed.
The powerful ac ds used in the inhalers
have entirely eaten away the same mem
branes that their makers have aimed to
cure, while the pastes and ointments can
not reach the disease. An eld and expe
rienced practitioner who lias for many
years made a close study and specialty
of the treatment-of Catarrh, has at last
perfected a treatment which, when faith

permanently cures Catarrh, by remov

choicest summer resorts in the south.
It is probobly true that almost ev

which would draw some woman to
him, but it is difficult to frame a
statement in general terms of “What
Women Like in Men.” This is the
task which a very well-known au
thor, under the nom-de-plume of
“Rafford Pyke,” has undertaken in
the Cosmopolitan for July in a clev
er essay, which proves him to have
made woman the subject of thor
ough observation and comprehen
sive study. “The foreign girl,’’ says
the author, marries the man with
whom she will be happy, the. Ameri
can marries the man without whom
she will be unhappy.”
