The peanut has been the butt
of many a jest and furnished the
subject" for much ridicule in a
pleasant sort of a way Georgia
has beer, denominated by the
would-be funny man as the “goo
ber” state, and the inhabitants
called “goober grabblers.” The
peanut, or its synonym, has been
employed in the realm of ridicule
to belittle personages in public
life. We have ofteu heard the
term “peanut politician” applied
to one who held high positions,
both Federal and state.
But the so-called facetious man
is not content to allow this valua
ble product to rest with beariug
the odium of a derisive pseudo
nym to officials, they must needs
go further in their efforts to tab-
bbo it and call the cheapest part
of our theaters the “peanut gal
lery.” They associate this valua
ble nut with urchin and tatter
demalion, on amount of his fond
ness for it, arid also to give ex
pression to the insignificance, in
their minds, of the product itself.
They, however, reckon without
their host when it is assumed the
“goober” is so trivial a thiug iu
the markets of the country. The
Telegraph iB a friend to the ridi
culed peanut and desires to cham
pion its oause,
The census reports show that
in 1809 there were 11,964,957
bushels of peaputs raised in the
United States, valued at $7,271,-
280. Georgia in that year had
100,689 aores, 1,486,776 bushels
netting the producers $985,749.
Nearly a million dollars for pea
nuts 1 It ill beooms one to deride
any produot whioh makes a state
ten hundred thousand dollars
richer in a single twelve-month.
These figures do not show all the
sources of income derived from
the groundpea. The vine makes
good provender for both cattle
and hogs, while the oil from the
nut has iu latter days been large
ly used in the compounding of
medicines and lubricants. Not
only does the “goober” furnish
a delectable flavor for the palate,
but it has oome to be one of the
medicinal boons to humanity, and
is continually invading the me
dian ioal realm as one of its
hand-maidens. More than all this
it is without a peer for fattening
live stock, particularly hogs. Its
varlue as a pork produoer exoeeds
by far the figures given above
whioh relate particularly to the
Bale by the bushel.
Virginia leads all the states in
the aoreage, bushels and value of
the “insignificant” peanut. The
“Old Dominion” gave to the
world in 1899, 8,718,847 bushels,
representing 116,914 acres, and
$2,261,148. North Carolina comes
next, 95,856 aores, 8,460,489 bush
els netting a revenue of $1,852,-
110. Alabama is next to Georgia,
ranking fourth, with 78,878 acres,
1,021,708 bushels valued at .^588,-
228.\ The Southern states pro
duced over ninety per oent, of
the crop, whioh made us nearly
seven million and a half rioher in
1899 from .gales alone by the bush
el. Th6 peanut has crossed the
Atlantic and found its way into
the .English, German and Freuoh
markets.
All hail to the peanut; may it
live always 1
W. F. Brown of the Richland
farms .tells us that since Novern
ber 1 they have sold $1,000 worth
of hogs, $750 of which was clear
profit. Mik Brown says they are
just beginning to realize on their
hogs, and that in the next few
months and from this time on
they hope to more than duplicate
the above named dividends.. A
remarkable feature of the Rich
land farmers is that they do not
permit a stalk of cotton to grow
upon their entire tract of 4,000
acres. Moral: Raise hogs; raise
ane; raise—anything but cotton.
A Thoughtful Mau.
M. M. Austin of Winchester,
Ind. knew what to do in the hour
of neefl. His wife had such an
unusual case of stomach and liver
trouble, physicians could not help
her. He thought of and tried Dr.
King’s New Life Pills and she
got relief at. once and was finally
cured. Only 25c, at Holfczolaw’s

St. Louis Republic.
Blown-in-the-bottle Democracy
must be the prime possession of
the Democratic nominee for Pres
ident. It will appear iu his man
ner and speech. It will be reflect
ed in his character and'by his
acts; a type of Democracy em
bracing and embodying the old,
profound, eternal principles of
the party, a type which will sum
mons and lift the voter above
slight and local deflexions and di
vergencies, which will ring hpme
to ancient and honorable senti
ment and stir the deeper loyalties
of men.;
It must be a type to beget and
spread the motive of large liberal
ity, propitiation, concession and
common purpose; to move the
master impulses beyond small
rankling; to inspire with the in
domitable spirit of winning.
Grounded ir. Democracy, a can
didate chosen with reference to
principle, to qualities of states
manship, to experience and broad
Executive capacity will draw irre
sistibly the sympathy and enthu
siasm of the country.
From Minnesota to Mississippi;
from New York to Oregon, he
will attract the confidence and
aotive support of evety Democrat,
especially the old-fashioned Dem
ocrats who guard the traditions of
the party. Character, purpose and
broad executive capacity to fit the
nation’s clearly defined needs will
appeal as well to the intelligence
of the vigorous younger element.
A Democratic President is want
ed for a plain purpose—a purpose
respeoted by most men irrespect
ive of,party lines and particularly
appealing t« the people in the
producing regions who are out of
sympathy with the present admin
istration’s trust-tariff policy and
plans. A large part oj. this pop
ulation in the West and North
west, though nominally Republi
can, will find its interests allied
with a Democracy whioh supports
a man of virile power, firm pur
pose and broad executive facul
ties.
Never were extensive powers of
execution and accomplishment
more imperatively demanded by
the people’s situation. A man
qualified by training to meet the
people’s needs and on whose judg
ment they relied for safety against
too-great extremes must draw
force and inspiration from every
source, except the source tfhich
now controls the leading politi
cians of the Republican party. □

Says War is Surely Coming.
Before 1912 the American peo
ple will probably fight'a big war.
The Universal Peace Society may
weep and moisten successive ban
danas, but gunpowder is in the
Yankee blood, the itch for a fight
grows and grows, and the young
men need a scrap to harden their
muscle and give them mauly ex
perience, for it can’t be a dollar
hunt all the time without peril of
national degeneracy. Something
is coming; it is in the air; the
trusts grind away, and the opu
lent grow fat around the waist;
religion softens daily; the pulpits
deal out mush and are blue pen
ciling the Bible; the average
young American sinks into the
employe class, gets restless and
listens to the socialists who med,-
itate placing society on a basis of
equal pay for the loafer and the
industrious, auda uniform alarm-
clock scheme for getting every
body up to work at the same hour.

A Demonstration of What Chamber
lain's Colic, Cholera and Diar
rhoea Remedy Can Do.
“One of our customers, a high
ly respected citizen of this place,
had been for ten years a sufferer
from chronic diarrhoea,” write
Walden & Martin, druggists, of
Enterprise, Ala. “He had used
various patent preparations and
been treated by physicians, with
out any permanent benefit. A few
months ago he commenced taking
Chamberlain’s Colio, Cholera and
Diarrhoea Remedy and in a short
time was entirely cured. Many
citizens of Enterprise who know
the gentleman will testify to the
truthfulness of this statement.”
