THE COMMONER,
(Mr; Bryan’s Paper.)
The Commoner has attained within
six months from date of the first issue a
circulation of 100,000 copies, a record
probably never equaled in the history of
American periodical literature. The
unparalleled growth of this paper de
monstrates that there is room in the
newspaper fields for a national paper de
voted to the discussion of political,
economic, and social problems. To the
columns of the Commoner Mr. Bryan
contributes his best efforts ;and his views
of political events as they arise from
time to time can not fail to interest those
who study public questions.
The Commoner’s regular subeription
price is $1.00 per year. We have arrang-
• ed with Mr. Bryan whereby we can fur
nish his paper and Home Journal to
gether for on& year for $1.90. The reg
ular subscription price of the two pa
pers when suberibed for separately is
$2.50.

The Foil; Valley Roller Mills.
On Tuesday afternoon, Febru
ary 3rd,at 2:80 o’clock little Ruby,
the six-year-old daughter of Mr.
and Mrs. W.JjH. Harris, pressed a
button which started the machin
ery of the Fort Valley Roller Mills
to work.
There was a large crowd of
prominent ladies and gentlemen
present to attend this, the “open
ing of the Fort Valley Flour Mills,
and each lady was the recipient
sf a sample of the regular brands
of flour to be manufactured by
this oompany.
This mill was organized some
time ago with a capital stock of
$18,000. W. H. Harris, president
of the Dow Law Bank, was elected
president, H. L. Harris, seo’y, S.
W. Hunter, of Terre Haute, Ind..
superintendent.
A large and commodious build
ing three stories high, hesides a
basement, was determined upon,
which has recently hsuh complet
ed. The machinery is the latest
pattern and combines all the im
provements of modern times.
The capacity of th° mill is one
huudred and twenty-five barrels
of flour arid six hundred bushels
of meal per day. -
The management has contract
ed for and will receive five oars of
wheat per week, and so conven
iently has everything been arrang
ed that they can unload a full oar
of wheat aud place it in position
to be ground at a very small cost.

Another New Railroad.
It is generally conceded, now,
and the News has iuformution
from a reliable source that a new
railroad will soon be built between
Cordele and Hawkinsville.
The distance will only be about
twenty-eight miles, but will trav
erse and open up some of the fin
est timber und farm lands in
Dooly county. Besides these
great advantages, Cordele will
have another competing railroad
rate- to deep water, for, when a
road is completed between these
two points, connections will be
made right straight through, via
Tennille, Augusta to Charleston,
S. C. We need the road and
must have it.—Cordele News. '
If we are not mistaken this is
not the first time that our Cor
dele contemporary has announced
the early building of a railroad
from that point to Hawkinsville,
but vye hope it has the news
straight this time, and that some
thing definite will soon happen
In the meantime it should not be
forgotten that Hawkinsville is
ready, willing and waiting to do
all she can to bring the road this
way.—Hawkinsville Dispatch.
A veteran of the Spanish war
recently applied to the Secretary
of the interior a case in which he
claimed a pension on account of
corns he had contracted by wear
ing army shoes. The department,
after an exhaustive course of rea
soning. comes to the conclusion
that corns are not a pensionable
disability. The decision says:
“Corns are inconvenient, but are
seldom incapacitating, and when
they are,the remedy is simple and
within easy reach of any one. The
soldier’s patriotism ought not to
terminate with his military ser
vice. It should prompt him to go
to a chiropodist rather than to the
pension bureau.”

Breeders of Socialism.
The chief teachers of socialism
in this country are those who 1
have ostentatiously paraded their
power, uuder present conditions,
to, con jure enormous wealth from
combinations, from trusts, from!
water, from railroad disorimina- j
tion from legislative fiivor. When j
people see vast corporations built j
up by secret contracts with com- !
mon carriers in violation of law, 1
when thoy see other corporations
permitted by lll-adjuBted tariff
duties to sell their goods here
for so much that it i9 profitable
to purchase abroad those same
goods manufactured here ai.d
freight them back, it is no wonder
that they grow discontented. We
firmly believe that a plunge into
socialism would be the ruin of
this country. Its' salvation ^must
be found in freft initiative and
enterprise as of old. Whatever
seems to large bodies of the people
to trench upon thc&t freedom by
granting special privileges tends
to provoke demands for stion reg
ulation of equality as will kill in- ‘
dividualism and enterprise. Those
who stand as leaders of the recent
great developments ot private en
terprise should be the first to use
their power with moderation, and
above all things, should remove
every ground of complaint, if
they wish to see long-oontinued
the industrial liberty which has
made possible this countrj’s phe
nomenal growth in wealth.—New
York Tribune,
Derived $300 from an Acre of Oane.
The Tatnall Journal in a reoput
issue presented uu interview,,with
J. B. Wilkes, Jr., of Lyons, G-a.,
in which he declared that one
acre planted in sugar cane yielded
him $800. He said:
“I will tell you what I made
last year on thirty-six acres of
ground. Well, to begin with, from
one acre of sugar cane I sold for
chewing purposes $106.15, made
250 gallous ol as nice syrup as
one could wish to see, which I
sold for 50 cents per gallon, mak
ing a total of $150; saved from
the same acre enough seed to re
plant the acre which is worth $40.
Be rides, I have five children and
they had plenty of cane to chew
all the season,, to say nothing of
what I gave my neighbors and
friends when they ciime to see me.
I made a Calculation from one
acre of sugar cane I realized about
$800. I also had in cultivation
four acres in short cotton, from
which I gathered two bales and
sold for $72; eight acres in long
cotton, made three bales, which 1
sold for $185. I planted twenty
acres in corn, and from that I
gathered 840 bushels, which was
worth $340; I made forty bushels
of peas-land about seventy-five
bushels of the best potatoes I ever
gathered. Besides the, above, I.
have enough meat, fodder, hay
and other forage to run my farm
another twelve months.”

Escaped an Awful Fate,
Mr. H. Haggins of Melbourne,
Fla., writes, “My doctor told me
I had consumption and nothing
could be done for me. I was giveu
up to die. The offer of a free trial
bottle of Dr. King’s New Discov
ery for Consumption, induced me
to try it. Results were startling.
I am now on the road to recovery
and owe all to Dr. King’s New
Discovery. It' surely saved my
life.” This great cure is guaran

Gen. Booth, the Salvation Army
leader, has been a pronounced
vegetarian for years. He even re
fuses to indulge, in butter, milk
or vegetables cooked in fat, living
entirely on cereals, principally
boiled rice. The General says he
is a vegetarian for two reasons.
One is his belief that primitive
man ate no meat and the other is
that after a long trial of that diet
he finds himself much younger
than his years.
