POO* PIWIT.
| When Admiral Dewey landed in
New York city on his return from
the Philippine Islands, he was giv
en perhaps ths greatest reception
ever given any man by the Ameri
can people. His praises were
sounded in every part of the Uni
ted States. He was the idol of the
people. But when he married and
gave to his wife the home that the
people had given him, a reaction
began. One mistake has followed
pie should be given an opportuni
j ty to honor him for his heroic
servioes in war, as Washington,
Grant, Taylor and other* have
been honored, it is highly prob
able that it would result in his
overwhelming defeat and shame.
His contemplated visit to Atlanta
was denied him by telegrams from
the city authorities asking our
Congressmen ond Senators not to
invite him to come. His an-
nouuaement for Presidency falls
equally as flat. Poor Dewey I It
is hard that he, who has fought
the greatest battle upon the sea,
should lose the love of his country
men.
•KNSCS DIRECTOR I'REFKRS WOMEN.
Some time ago it was announced
that women were to be gradually
eliminated from the governmental
departments at Washington. Ev
ery reason but the true one, which
is that women have no votes, wo*
given as an excuse for such
course. In contrast with this ao
tiou of various heads of depart
ments in Washington against wo
men, it is refreshing to find one
man who overides political bosses
and insists upon employing those
best fitted for the work, irrespec
tive of sex. The following an
nouncement comes from Wash
ington:
Gen. W. R. Merriam, Director
of the Census, refuses to accept
any more men as clerks. He
wants women. He has addressed
a letter to each member of Con
gress and informed him that here
after he will not permit the ex
amination of men for positions.
On July 1 he will employ from
1500 to 1800 women. Against
this there has been a decided pro
test, Republicans and Democrats
alike have political favors to re
pay, and women vote in only a
few states. Already there have
been charges that men have been
found deficient in examinations,
while women are nearly always
passed. Director Merriam will
have the employment of nearly
6000 persons, and insists upon ap
pointing women to nine-tenths of
the places.
Senators receive fifteen appoint
ments each; Republican represen
tatives six; Democratic represen
tatives three, and members with a
"pall” as many as they like. Few
senators or representatives have
filled their quotas, and unless ap
appointments are made before the
examinations in April Director
Merriam himself #ill make the
selections from the civil service
eligible list. *
what thk prohibitionists aki
I>OING.
We see from our exchanges that
there are going to be a great many
candidates for representatives and
senators in tbe next legislature.
The explanation of the extraordi
nary number of applicauts for
these honors is that there is a
quiet movement both on tbe part
of the Prohibitionists and on the
part of the liquor element to elect
men to the legislature that will
support their respective causes
Tbe Prohibitionists, from the best
information we can gather, have
tbe advantage in the fight thus far.
The last House beiug strongly in
favor of the Willingham bill, and
as many of the old members will
return, it is claimed that there
will be no trouble in the passing
of a Prohibition measure in that
body. In the Senate, too. the
Prohibitionists seem to have the
advantage. Many Senatorial dis-
tricts, which were represented by
anti-Prohibitionists before, will
send strong Prohibitionists to the
next Senate. Mr. J£d Wright, of
the tenth district, was opposed to
the Willingham bill. It is almost
sure that Mr. G. G. Ford will be
the next senator from ths tenth,
and he is a strong Prohibitionist.
Bartow county is going to send W.
H. Lumpkin to vote for the Wil
lingham bill, in which district the
last senator was an anti-prohibi
tionist. A like situation prevails
iu the Nineteenth district, lepre
seuted in the last senate by Judge
Columbus Heard, of Green coun
ty, which district will be most
likely represented in the next by
Mr. J. C. Jerhnagan, a member of
the last House from Warren coun
ty. Mr. Jerhnagan comes from a
dry county and voted for tbe Wil
lingham bill, while Senator Heard
never left his seat while the meas
ure was up in the Senate, and
when the time came voted against
the bill. Other instances could
be given upon this line, but these
are sufficient as a pointer to what
is going on with reference to this
issue in Georgia.
THAT LKTTKK.
Hon. Thomas E. Winn is re
ceiving the commendaiion of the
press throughout the state for that
manly and patriotic letter which
he wrote the Constitution and
which appeared in The News-Her
ald a few weeks ago.
If the Democratic party had de
clared for the free coinage of sil
ver iu 1892, as it did in 1896, and
will do this year, he would never
Uft 4.U - T\ a J -
that the Democratic platform is
in keeping with his sentiments,
what better is there for him to do
than to endorse it ? Some of our
Populists seem to be a little alarm
ed at Col. Winn’s letters. They
need not be, for the Populists as
a national, state and county or
ganization is rapidly losing, and
they will all, sooner or later, have
to do eithor as Col. Winn has done
or affiliate the negro rule. They
needn’t deny that their party U
dying. Two ol their leaders in
Georgia have openly left their
ranks this year. Where is apr m
lneut man that has joined them
since Christmas ? Can they show
the gain of a single man in Gwin
nett county ? We can point to
some good men who say they are
not going to affiliate with the Pop
ulists any longer.
The convention hall of Kansas
City was burned last week, but
another will be built for the great
Democratic convention which
meets there on the fourth of July.
Mr. Roland Ellis, one of the
leaders in that filibustering crowd
in the last legislature, and candi
date for the senate from the 22nd
district, is to have opposition in
the person of Clem P. Steed.
Mr. Steed’s coming into the race
is a movement on the part of the
Prohibitionists, and this will be
one of the hottest senatorial races
in Georgia.
In speaking of the recent letter
from Hon. Thos. E. Winn to the
Atlanta Constitution, the Dahlon
ega Signal says: "He was a mem
ber of Congress from the Ninth
Congressional district, several
years ago, and haß been an influ
ential member of the Populist
party since its organization. Col.
Winn’s avowal that he will m
future vote with the Democratic
party will strengthen the party
here, aud his course will be fol
lowed by others who have for sev
eral years past voted the Populist
ticket. ”

Democratic primary called by the

REPEAL THE WAR TAX.
Why Ooitinue to Tax the People Million
of Hollars?
March 10, 1900, the U. S. Treas
ury had on hand as shown by the
official statement a net cash bal
ance of over three hundred million
dollars. The government receipts,
in excess of all expenses for eight
months prior to April Ist, were
over sixty-two and one-half mil
lion dollars, or an average of near
ly eight million dollars per month.
At this rate money is being taken
out of circulation and concentra
ted in the vaults of the U. S. Treas
ury in the enormous sums of nine
ty-six million dollars-per year,and
for what purpose or usage ? This
concentration of the circulating
medium cannot fail to result, very
materially, detrimental to busi-
ness at large.
In bis letter to congress, Jan.
10, 1900, the Secretary of the
Treasury said: “The revenues
are now exceeding disbursements
from month to month, and seem
likely to do so for an indefinite
time. This condition would be
a menace to the business world if
assurances were not given that
this surplus would be diverted
from the treasury vaults to public
depositories where, while secure to
the government, it would remain
available to business use.”
The existence of over three hun
dred million dollars in cash means
that the government has not only
the required gold reserve, as per
the law just passed, but also one
hundred and fifty million of dol
lars over over and above all ex
penses, and still the government
is collecting taxes on checks,
deeds, mortgages, medicines, per
fumes, bills lading, telegrams,
money orders, etc., levying upon
the people an unjust, harrassing,
oppressive tax. What possible
excuse can there now be for Con
gress refusing to repeal this un
just stamp tax upon business doc
uments, medicines, toilet articles,
etc? Think about it! Since
July 1, 1899, there has gone
into the public treasury an
average daily surplus of over
two hundred aud seventy thousand
dollars, and it is increasing from
day to day, and now that the gov
ernment does not need the money,
why continue it and tax the peo
ple ?—Ex.

How To
Gain Flesh
Persons have been known to
gain a pound a day by taking
an ounce of SCOTT’S EMUL
SION. It is strange, but it often
happens.
Somehow the ounce produces
the pound; it seems to start the
digestive machinery going prop
erly, so that the patient is able
to digest and absorb his ordinary
food, which he could not do be
fore, and that is the way the gain
is made.
A certain amount of flesh is
