January has had a pretty bad
record for rough weather. Mon
day is the last day of the month.
Politics will engage the atten
tion of the people of Georgia this
year. It is something they enjoy,
however.
Candler’s letter met with a
hearty “amen” from the people.
It looks as if the will of the people
will prevail this once.
Always Democratic, The Cracker
is ever ready to champion the
cause of the people and to fight
for the principles of the party.
The war horse, the plow boy,
the statesman, the honored citi
zen—all these elements are com
biner! in Allen D Candler. Much
more could be said of him but
these are enough to commend him
to the people of Georgia.
Hon. Hut Jenkins of Eatonton,
is a brilliant "young man and no
doubt he would make Georgia a
good Governor. His time is not
yet, however; he should wait a
little while, and the people will
honor him in due season.
Candler’s nomination for Con
gress in the Ninth district ten
years ago was the death knell of
independentism in Georgia; Can
dler’s nomination for Governor
this year means the death knell of
populism in this same good state.
Hon. Allen D. Candler has ad
dressed a letter to the members of
the general assembly touching his
candidacy for Governor. He re
strained from approaching them
during the session because he did
not wish to add to theiivaunoyande.

1 SPLENDID PROSPECTS.
The amount of building now
going on in Gainesville and the
numerous improvements being
made, together, with the frequency
of real estate deals, augurs well
for the future of the “Queen City.”
It shows that property here is val
uable and that investments are
considered not only safe, but prof
itable as well. New stores are
being built, new residences are
being erected, new business houses
are going up and altogether there
is an activity in this respect which
amounts* to something like a
boom; a boom in fact, though not
in the sense that it is t emporary,
for it is a growth which is contin
ual and permanent.
In commercial circles every
thing is moving along in a lively
way with Gainesville, though the
month of January is always a
quiet one. The prospects for
business for the year appears to be
good, and it is believed by the
most level headed that the busi
ness of the merchants is going to
be better than previously. They
are preparing for a good business
for 1898, and unless something
unforeseen occurs they will not be
disappointed.
Everything ‘considered, Gaines
ville’s growth in every way during
the present year, it is believed,
will be greater than at any time
within her history. Her citizens
should stand together and see to
it that not one of her intesests
is neglected; that they will do
everything in their power indi
vidually and collectively, to
promote the progress and advance
ment of the town.
Allen Candler and Howard
Thompson—fearless fighters for
Democracy—will be the nominees
of their party for Governor and
Congressman respectively. Their
nomination means overwhelming
majorities for the ticket they
head.
It is understood that Governor
Atkinson will not be a condidate
for United States Senator to suc
ceed Major Bacon. He intends
resuming the practice of law, so
it is said. A number of years in
politics has made him a very poor
man, and he is now going to work
to replenish his fortune. It is
the same old story of a man
ruined by politics.
Of the Knife.
Mr. Lincoln Nelson, of Marshfield, Mo.,
writes: “For six years I have been a
sufferer from a scrofulous affection of
the glands of my neck, and all efforts
of physicians in Washington, D. _C.,
Springfield, Ill., and St. Louis failed to
reduce the enlargement. After six
months’ constant treatment^ here, my
physician urged me to submit to a re
moval of the gland. At this critical mo
ment a friend recommended S.S.S.,
and laying aside a deep-rooted preju
dice against all patent medicines, 1 be

Christmas has come and gone
and the North Georgia Agricult
ural and Mechanical college has
again resumed her regular business,
having lost but two or three of its
old pupils; and to compensate for
these many new ones have already
matriculated. This college offers
to the poor boy as well as to the
rich, advantages that are not sur
passed by any college in the state.
With her new faculty, new appa
ratus, new departments, and her
normal course for teachers, begin
ning the • first of March, she be
gins her spring term under the
brightest auspices in her history.
The three college literary socie
ties play a very important part
m the development of the orator
ical powers of the pupils, both
male and female.
The honor roll for the month of
December is as follows: Senior
class, Miss Hattie Rogers; Junior
class, Mr. Benjamin G. Parks;
Sophomore class, Willie M. Smith
and Leon N. Shohan; Freshman
class, Smith A. Harris, Miss Eva
McKee, Jake W. West and George

This experience is like that of all who
suffer with deep-seated blood troubles.
The doctors can do no good, and even
their resorts to the knife prove either
fruitless or fatal. S.S.S. is the only
real blood remedy; it gets at the root of
the disease and forces it out perma-

It Stops Leaks.
We call special attention to the ad

ple who know him and his work.
Whether your roof leaks or not, you
had better have him examine and paint
it. See what he says and then confer
