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 bly entertain the editors of the 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 24th the Central of Georgia Rail way will sell tickets at one fare for the round trip, good to return until July‘31st. Chicago. —r -K>-< 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. —— s 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.

Hanna, the controller of the re publican party, was preparing to be come a candidate for the presidency. 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.’ Concerning his present political efforts our Washington correspond ent says: Mark Hanna’s efforts to secure harmony in Ohio, differing so radi It is reported that each of them will soon become the better-half in|a mat rimonial copartnership. In this con nection the Macon Telegrpah says “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 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.” —Mr. Josiah Bass, one of Hous ton’s prominent citizens, writes as follows: “After trying various remedies, without obtaining any benefit, I was cured sound and well by Mucalee Chill Stop.

Their pow ders dry up the mucous membranes, 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 fully u.-ed, not only relieves once, but permanently cures Catarrh, by remov ing the cause, stopping the discharges and curing all inflammation. It is the Only remedy known to science that ac tually reaches the afflicted parts.

It is no ordinary The nomination of a southern man for president on the democratic tick et would insure an earnest and hon est campaign against high protec tion in tariff rates and against the aggressions of industrial and com mercial trusts, to say nothing of up holding the constitution. Georgia fruit growers felt much outraged last week when the rail roads issued an order that an extra freight charge of 20 cents a crate would be placed on peaches when ever a carload contained fruit for more than one consignee. This was exceedingly unjust, a combination between the railroads and the most influential commission merchants, and the storm of protest caused the order to be rescinded. tional reason, but only in accordance with the measure of merit.

A very cheap seashore excursion is given by the Central of Georgia ‘Tybee by the Sea” on July 9th, next Tuesday, permitting a stay of four days at Tybee or in Savannah. Very best accommodations. This is for one train only, scheduled to pass Fort Valley at 1:20 p. m. and to leave Macon at 2:15. From Ogle thorpe and stations between there and Macon the round-trip fare is $2.50. This is an exceedingly cheap trip, and during the summer there will be no better opportunity to spend several days at one of the choicest summer resorts in the south. It is probobly true that almost ev ery man has in him certain qualities 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.” If July should be comparatively as hot as June was, the crops of Georgia and other certain states will be severely injured beyond recovery. Even now the crops are very much below the average of recent years in “““ “^ ^Fnrtharfipfavor- pro\e disastrous. GEORGIA— Houston Countp . M. A. Edwards, administrator of the estate of John A.
