A DIRTY ATTACK-
The Pickens County Herald,
Congressman Tate’s home organ,
is waging a bitter and vituperative
personal fight against Hon. How
ard Thompson, altogether unwar
ranted and uncalled for,and if Col.
Tate gives the Herald’s attacks
his endorsement, he is not the man
we take him to be. If Col. “Tate
is bold and manly in his conduct”
he will promptly give the Herald
a spanking by slapping its dirty
little mouth and sending it to
bed.
The News-Herald wants to see
fair-play in this campaign, and

M R. EDWARD HARDY, the Jolly man
ager of Sbeppard Co*s. great store st
Braceville, Ill., writes: “I had never
been sick a day in my life until in 1890. I
got so bad with nervous prostration that I
had to give up and commence to doctor. I
tried our local physicians and one in Joliet,
but none gave me any relief and I thought
I was going to die. I became despondent
and suffered untold agony. I could not eat,
sleep nor rest, and it seemed as if I could
not exist. At the end of six months I was
reduced to but a shadow of myself, and at
last my heart became affected and I was
truly miserable. I took six or eight bottles
of Dr. Miles’ Nervine. It gave me relief
from the start, and at last a cure, the great
est blessing of my life."

In the death of Edward Bellamy,
which occurred at Chicopee Falls,
Mass., on Sunday morning, the
world lost one of its best thinkers
and most brilliant writers. In
the reading of his book “Looking
Backward,” he perhaps secured a
larger audience than any other
writer on the obstruse and unin
viting subjects of political econ
omy, with the possible exceptions
of Henry George and “Coin”
Harvey. His beautiful imagery in
the book mentioned delights the
fancy, and his generous sentiments
touch the heart and awaken grand
emotions, though he may fail to
convince the head that his utopian
ideas are available and practical.
Nervous prostration is a term com
monly used to indicate a weakened and
debilitated state of the nervous system
and a vitiated condition of the blood.
Its symptoms are unusual nervousness,
great irritability, and incapacity for
physical or mental labor,and it is caused
by errors in diet or hygiene. Dr. J. H.
McLean’s Strengthening Cordial and
Blood Purifier is recognized everywhere
even by the medical profession, as a
superior remedy to counteract weak
ness of this character. . Price 50c and

Loss of American dollars to
French milliners and hotel and
seaside resort keepers is bringing
the press of Parish to some sense
of the blunder it has committed in
insulting the United States and
the people thereof, says the Mem
phis Scimitar. Your European
is forever talking about us as a
nation of sordid money grabbers,
but nobody loves cash more than
she does, or is more fully aware of
the fact that no travelers separate
themselves from their coin so
readily as do Americans. The
pocket nerve is fully as acute on
the other side of the water as it is
on our side.
A persistent pain in the back is in
dicative of disorder in the kidneys.
Diceases in these organs are so rapid
and deadly in their progress they
should not be neglected for a single
instant. Dr. J. H. McLean’s Liver and
Kidney Balm has an established repu
tation among medical men for curing
these diseases. It has in many cases
brought about relief and cure after
the attending physician has exhausted
his resources. Price 81.00 a bottle.

the methods employed by the
Pickens County Hferald in behalf
of Col. Tate and the Gainesville
Eagle in behalf of Col. Thompson.
Both are striking below the belt.
But by far the most contemptible
piece of bushwhacking emenates
from the Pickens county organ of
Col. Tate, the writer skulking un
der the title of “A Ninth District
| Democrat.” It is published as
j the leading article in the Herald
l of last week, on its editorial page.
The article is as follows.
TATE CONTRASTED WITH THOMPSON.
No more striking contrast can
be found than that between Tate
and Thompson.
“Tate is a strong man ; Thomp-
a weak one. Tate has large legis
lative experience; Thompson has
none. Tate is faithful and true;
Thompson false *.and treacherous.
Tate is bold and manly in his con
duct ; Thompson slick and dirty
in his methods. Tate seeks office
for the honor of serving his coun
try; Thompson for the money
there is in it. Tate is an unswer
ving democrat; Thompson a po
litical skewbald. Tate has always
fought under the democratic flag
and supported democratic princi
ples ; Thompson united in the
coalition between the independ
ents and republicans to defeat
democratic candidates and demo
cratic principles in the Ninth
District. Tate has etood for free
silver and financial reform;
Thompson stood for the gold
standard when -his brother-in-law
held office under Cleveland, and
until he found he could not win
on that line, then true to his utter
disregard or principle, he deserted
the gold crowd. Thompson is
without ability, and destitute of
principle.”
“A creature of amphibious nature,
On land a beast, a fish in water.”
It will be a long time before
this political nondescript is nom
inated for congress by democaatic
votes. (Signed):
A 9th District Democrat.
The editor of the News-Herald
knows Col. Howard Thompson to
be a high-minded, honorable gen
tleman, and one of the foremost
citizens of Gainesville. He is a
member of the Baptist church, a
a leading Mason and a prominent
Odd Fellow. He satnds high in
the estimation of his fellows, and
is utterly, incapable of being the
“villian” that this dirty and
scurrilous assassin of character
impugns him to be.
If this is a sample of the cam
paign,Col. Tate’s home organ in
tends waging, Col. Tate owes it to
himself and to the democratic
party to denounce it openly and
disclaim any endorsement of such
dirty methods against his oppo
nent, which his silence might con
strue.—Lawrenceviile News-Her

Morro Castle.
There is a Morro castle at Ha-
vanna and one at San Juan, Porto
Rico. Many persons are curious
to know why the Spaniards have
these two castles of the same
name.
The word Morro in Spanish
means promontory and these
castles are so named because they
are perched upon commanding
elevations in the two cities.
The word is frequently spelled
Moro and is supposed rather gen
erally to mean “the Moor,” but
the spelling and the interpretation
are incorrect. There is a rocky
plateau in Mexico which is also
called Morro, and on its vertical
sides are inscriptions which were
cut by the early Spanish invaders
of that country. Morro castle,
Havana, was once considered one
of the most powerful fortresses in
the world, but it is out of date
now, and when the 13-inch guns
of our warships are turned loose
on it, they will wreck it m short
order. There are several fortifi
cations in the vicinity of Havana
much more formidable than the
famous old castle with its infa
mous history.—Atlanta Journal.

the world no people love
their country as do the people of
these United States. It is the
fairest country on God’s green
earth and worthy the heart’s best
devotion. War is destructive in
its results and demoralizing in its
tendencies, and calls for the best
efforts of men and women to save
from wreck and ruin the high
standard of Christian civilization
reared in the years of peace and
progress. Home duties are more
numerous and no less important
than bearing arms. A large major
ity of men can render better ser
vice for their country at home
than they could in the army. Up
lifting influences, carrying on in
dustries, raising food supplies,
rendering sustaining help, mate
rially and morally, kindness and
charity, are demands that call for
the best efforts of head and heart
and best uses of means.

Something to Know.
It may be worth something- to know
that the very best medicine for restor
ing the tired out nervous system to a
healthy vigor is Electric Bitters. This
medicine is purely vegetable, acts by
giying tone to the nerve centres in the
stomache, gently stimulates the Liver
Kidneys, and aids these organs in throw
ing off impurities in the blood. Electric
Bitters improves the appetite, aids di
gestion, and is pronounced by those
who have tried it as the very best blood
purifier and nerve tonic. Try it. Sold
lor 50c, or 81.00 per bottle at M. C*
Brown & Co’s. Drug Store.
An Old Idea.
Every day strengthens the belief of emi
nent physicians that impure blood is the
cause of the majority of our diseases.
Twenty-five years ago this theory was used
as a basis for the formula of Browns’ Iron
Bitters. The many remarkable cures effected
by this famous old household remedy are
sufficient to prove that the theory is correct.
Browns* Iron Bitters is sold by all dealers.
For myself I have no doubt that
too much advice is usually given.
It is only the word in season that
can be of any avail, and the word
in season seldom or never comes to
those whose minds are constantly
harrowed up and irritated by words
out of season.—Learned.
Cuba is known in history under
seven names. She first was An-
tilla; then Juana, after a Spanish
prince. Fernandina came third,
followed by Santiago and the Isle
of Ave Maria. Then the original
Indian named Cubanacan, signify
ing “where gold is found,” was
finally adopted, and usage short
ened it to the first two syllables.
No humane person will expect a
horse to work against a sore shoulder,
nor to rest quietly under galling har
ness or saddle. When these troubles
appear the proper method is to remove
the cause of the sore and apply Dr. J.
H. McLean’s Volcanic Oil Liniment.
It is a superior remedy for galls and
sores,chafes and burns on animal flesh.
