THE GEORGIA CRACKLE Gainesville, Ga., January 29,1898. HAVE YOU NOTICED THAT e ® O © THE CRACKER IS PRINTING MORE NEWS, BETTER NEWS, * FRESHER-NEWS, THAN ANY PAPER IN GAINESVILLE ? Read The Georgia Cracker and keep posted. / 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.

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 gan its use. Before I had used one bot- $ DAHLONEGA. 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 L. Patterson; S. F. A. Willie J. McKne and Leon Sosebee; S. F. B. Miss Estelle Harris. not through with my second bottle yet. Had I only used your S.S.S. long ago, I would have escaped years of misery and saved over $i5 0 *” ,, . 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- ■“SSS.
