The silence now of candidatess

able, and decidedly pleasing to the
people.

The farmer who failed to produce

fully will soon learn that there’s where
he made a mistake.
The cotton growers and the spec
ulators disagree as to condition and
the prospective size of the crop, the
growers insisting that present prices
are too low.
It is already in evidence that the
“leaders” of the republican party
will not be able to lead President
Roosevelt contrary to his strenuous
will. He proposes to exercise his
■own judgment.
Czolgosk, the assassin of Presi
dent McKinley, has been tried and
convicted of murder in the first de
gree, and sentenced to death. The
trial occupied less than two days,
and developed nothing not already

some of the controlling himself, and
that is not pleasing to the profes
sionals.
It may be too much to expect
that any republican official will con
sider the interests of the country
greater than the interests of those
who control much money and de
mand special privileges, but such
hope is entertained.
In this connection the following
from our Washington correspondent
is interesting:
“It is becoming more and more evi
dent every day that there will be a
battle royal in the Republican party
in Congress this winter on _the sub
ject of reciprocal trade arrangements
with foreign nations. Mr. JEtoose-
velt has declared in favor of these,
and the American Protective Asso
ciation—which practically controls
the destinies of all eastern Congress
men—has declared against them.
Issue will soon be joined; indeed, it
is already asserted that Mr. Roose
velt is weakening. Such would not
be expected from a study of his rec
ord in the past, but it is worth while
to remember that when he declared
so unreservedly for the treaties, he
had not felt the force of the opposi
tion. The Tariff Association did
not consider that he, as Vice-Presi
dent, would have anything to do
with the decision of the question
except in the highly improbable
case that the Senate should be a tie,
and had taken no steps to influence
him Now that he has so suddenly
been elevated to so powerful a posi
tion, the Associarion is moving
heaven and earth to convince him of
the inadvisability of taking any ac
tion. “Wait awhile,” they say, “and
study the situation. President
McKinley’s declarations on the sub
ject were not positive, but only ten
tative and he was open to argument
from our side. Do you be the same”
“Besides,” they add, “it would be
such a pity to antagonize those who
would hold the strings of the purses

A Fiendish Attack.
An attack was lately made on C.
F. Collier of Cherokee, Iowa, that
nearly proved fatal. It came
through his kidneys. His back got
so lame he could not stoop without
great pain, nor sit in a chair except
propped by cushions. No remedy
helped him until he tried Electric
Bitters which effected such a won
derful change that he writes he feels
like a new man. This marvelous
medicine cures backache and kidney
trouble, purifies the blood and builds
up your health. Only 50c at

The Central of Georgia Railway

Late dispatches show that all the
Philippine Islands have not been
subjugated. On September 28th a
company of United States soldiers
was attacked by insurgents at Bar-
langiga, Island of Samar, and all
killed or captured except 24. The
company was composed of 72 men
-and officers, nnd they were attacked
'while at breakfast.
It seems that the Schley court of
inquiry is likely to bring discredit
upon the navy department. If Schley
is shown to have acted in the Santi
ago campaign contrary to orders
and duty, his promotion by endorse
ment of the navy department was
wrong. If the finding is in his fa
vor, then the navy department has
been a party to outrageous persecu
tion. The cdndnct of the govern
ment officials seemingly indicates
that Schley is"fin trial for crime, and
that the government is anxious to
convict.
The Georgia soldiers’ home at
Atlanta was destroyed by fire last
Monday, There was insurance to

8 o’clock, directly after the inmates
had eaten their breakfast. The At

The Farmer and the Roundlap Bale.
Under its new management the
business of the American Cotton
Company is being vigorously push
ed. The Southern farmer is fast
coming to see that his interests and
those of the Americaii Cotton Com
pany lie in the same direction. Every
unnecessary expense in marketing
cotton is that much taken out of the
farmer’s pockets, and every dollar
he Baves by having his cotton put
up in roundlap bales is that much
added to his profits. The American
Cotton Company’s interests lies in
enabling the presses it builds to
bale as much cotton as possible. In
order to secure this result it is es
sential that cotton growers shall
continue to find advantage in the
use of these presses. There is no
requirement that a single bale of
cotton be sold to the American Cot
ton Company. Roundlap bales,
with all of their advantages, can be
bought in open competition by any
responsible buyer and handled
through to the mills, but whenever
the ordinary cotton buyer declines
to purchase roundlap bales on this
basis the American Cotton Compa
ny stands ready to buy them.
The farmer who hauls his seed
cdtton to a roundlap gin may retain
as complete control over it as if he
took it to an old-style ginnery. He
can sell his cotton with or without
the seed, or he can have it custom
ginned (selling or keeping the seed)
and hold his roundlap bales until he
is ready to sell, with the assuranoe
that they are always salable at the
full market value of roundlap cotton.
The American Cotton Company
makes liberal advances on held
ronndlap bales. *

All doctors have tried [to cure Catarrh
by the use of powders, acid gases, inhal
ers and drugs in paste form. Their pow
ders dry up the mucous membranes,
causing them to crack open and bleed.
The powerful acids 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 old and expe
rienced practitioner who lias for many
years made a clos» study and specialty
of the treatment of Cat arrh, has at last
perfected a treatment which, when faith
fully u-ed, not onlv 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. This
wonderful remedy is knowD as “Snuff-
.flesthe Guaranteed Catarrh Cure”
