School is Improving.
' Mrs. M. E. Fields spent Saturday and
Sunday in Gainesville, returning to
Hoschton Monday morning. The
Hoschton High School, under the man
agement of Mrs. Fields and Miss Sallie
Candler is still growing, and new stu
dents are constantly being enrolled.
It is very probable that more rooms
will soon be added to the school build
ing, and other improvements made.
There are no better teachers in the
state than Mrs. Fields and Miss
Candler.

THE GOVERNOR’S APPOINT
MENTS.
Governor Atkinson has ap
pointed Judge Spencer R. Atkin
son railroad commissioner,^ Col.
James E. Broom state librarian,
and Judge Samps Harris associate
justice of the supreme court. The
appointments were sent to the
senate Wednesday morning, and
were promptly confirmed, with|the
exception of Judge Hams’ who
had not at that time accepted the
position tendered him.
A number of other appoint
ments- of county and city court
judges and solicitor generals were
sent with the above, and were
also confirmed by the senate.
Quite a surprise was created by
the resignation of Judge Atkinson
from the supreme bench to accept
the appointment of railway com- 1
misBsoner. He is a strong man
and the legal fraternity over the
state will regret to see him leave
the supreme bench. \
The appointments are very sat
isfactory to the people. The
fourth congressional district re
ceived its full share of recognition
from the Governor, whose future
interests will likely be looked
after by the people of that section.
“To the victors belong the spoils, ”
and no one can blame Governor
Atkinson for rewarding his friends.

DEMOCRACY TRIUMPHANT.
The state elections Tuesday re
sulted in a triumph for democracy.
Even in republican strongholds
where there seemed to be ho
chance of success for. the demo
cratic ticket, the result has. been
surprising, and republican maj or-
ities have either been reduced or
entirely overcome. ?'•
New York, Kentucky^ Nebraska,
Colorado and Virginia went dem
ocratic, while in Iowa and Massa
chusetts the republican majorities
were greatly reduced. Ohio, the
home of President McKinley and
Mark Hanna, has been almost
completely wrenched from repub
lican control, the democrats win
ning the greatest victory of the
decade in this fight. This state
was regarded as almost certain for
the republicans because of the fact
that it is the home of the repub
lican president and his chief po
litical adviser, and because it has
almost always been a republican
stronghold and is usually put
down in the republican column.
In New York, city and state,
the democrats won a glorious vic
tory—a victory greater than even
the most sanguine democrat had
hoped for. Robert VanWyck was
elected mayor of Greater New
York by a plurality of nearly
100,000. The state government is
in the hands of the democrats,
the defeat of the republicans being
overwhelming.
Although this is an “off year”
the result is very gratifying to
democrats and shows conclusively
that they can win in 1900 if the
principles of true democracy are
contended for and the anarchistic
elements of the Chicago plat
form are eliminated from the cam
paign.
So long as the old tiPae princi
ples of the party are held up and
maintained, democrats can al
ways safely count on the masses—
they will stick to the party of the
people. But when the principles
of Jefferson are ignorod and the
wild heresies of Altgeld are sub
stituted in their stead, defeat is
inevitable.
In New York, Tammany refused
to' allow national issues to be
injected into the campaign real
izing that it would ..be impossible
to win under such conditions.
The fight was made by the regular
organized- democracy which, by
its sensible action in ignoring
Bryan and his extreme free silver
views, gained control of the gov
ernment of the second largest
municipal government m the
world. Control ot the state govern
ment of New York was also thus
secured.
One other thing which has been
fully demonstrated is that the
people everywhere, even in the
McKinley-Hanna state of Ohio,
are disgusted with republican rule
and negro bossism. They want
no more of it in theirs, and indi
cations now point to a triumph of
democracy in 1900.
Liberty Hill, La., Aug. 24, 1895.—On
April 18th, 1895, I was shot With a
double-barrelled shotgun, loaded with
buUets or rifle balls, 12 taking effect,
6 passing through my body, thus mak
ing 18 wounds. These were dressed
with Dr. Tichenor’s Antiseptic, and
kept saturated with it, nothing else
being used externally. There was no
inflammation or sloughing or offensive
smell from the wound, and I rested and
slept without opiates. Within 50 days
I was able to take charge of my farm
ing interests. I owe my life to Dr.
Tichenor’s Antiseptic.—J. E. Boden.

Scrofula is a blood disease. Ayer’s

Dr. J. C. Ayer’s Sarsaparilla is a

for scrofula equal to Ayer’s Sarsa
parilla.
“I was cured of a long-standing case of
scrofula by Dr. J. C. Ayer’s Sarsaparilla.
The disease first manifested itself when I
was a child, by breaking out in red blotches
.all over my body. I was not free from the
trouble until I took several bottles of
Ayer’s Sarsaparilla. That effected a per

“Has Done Me Worlds of Good.”
Gainesville, Ga., Oct. 12, ’97.
Africans Company, Atlanta, Ga.
Dear Sirs: Eleven years ago I had a
bad case of rheumatism and the ’veins
in my legs bursted. Since then my
legs from my knees down have been
covered with running sores. I have
tried every remedy known, and phy
sicians have given me almost every
thing in an effort to effect a cure, all
to no avail. " Two months ago I began
taking Africans and have taken nearly
three bottles. The running sores on
my legs are rapidly healing, and I have
thrown aside my crutches, being now
able to walk without them. Africana
has already done me worlds of good,
and I believe in a short time I will
again he entirely sonnd and well.
Very gratefully yours,
THOMAS WALKER.
