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.

It is useless to say that Mr. Jackson captured the prizes at the Athens flower show,* for his flowers take the premium wherever exhibited. In its subtlety.

Theatrical people say this usually kills a thing pretty soon. 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. ’rV is & specific for scrofula in Its worst and most malignant forms. Scrofula is a blood disease. Ayer’s Sarsaparilla is a blood purifying medicine. Mineral medicines only drive scrofula below the surface. Dr. J. C. Ayer’s Sarsaparilla is a vegetable remedy and it eradicates the disease. There is no remedy 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 manent core.—Mbs. E. H. Snydeb, Lehigh- ton, Pa. New Orleans, Dec. 12, 1888.—I have witnessed the effects of Dr. Tichenor’s Antiseptic and know its value, and can therefore .conscientiously recommend it.—S. D.

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. Ask for It!
