Ths News-Herald is for every
enterprise that will aid iD upbuild
ing our county.
The Toccoa Record is for Carter
Tate for United States senator, to
succeed Hod. Steve Clay.
A farmer that improves his
farm add* reputation to his com
munity, his county, and his state
The farmers can do more for the
upbuilding of Gwinnett county
than any other class of citizens.
We have noticed about over the
county that there are a few farm
ers that use the days.iu which the
ground is too wet to plow, in rais
ing the terraces. This is a good
plan; but, unless terraces are kept
high enough to hold the water
during the great rains, there is no
use of terracing.
We are glad to say there are yet
some farmers that have pride
enough in their community and
county to leave occasionally a
beautiful tree by the roadside.
What is a more delightful scene
than a fine tree by the side of the
public road, to be seen and ad
mired by every traveler that pass
es ?
The "Hepburn Bill,” which has
reci ntly passed the house of rep
resentatives, provides for the pur
chase of sufficient territory from
Costa Rica and Nicarauga for the
construction of a ship canal from
Greytown, on the Carribean sea,
via Lake Nicaranga, to Breto, on
the Pacific ocean, and for the ap
propriation of 110,000,000 to be
used iu its construction.
Next Tuesday the 15th is the
time for the Btate Democratic
primary; and, although there is
not a single contest, yet it is the
plain duty of every Democrat to
go to the polls and vote. Of
course, your vote will accomplish
little, as the entire ticket will be
elected if there isn’t a single vote
from Gwinnett, yet it is a pretty
good plan to form the habit of
always exercising your privilege of
voting.
Chicago has never given any
man the great ovation that she
gave Admiral Dewey on his re
cent visit to that city. The news
papers may say what they please
about Dewey, may curse him if
they wish, but he fought the great
est battle over fought on the deep,
and his name will have a bright
place on the pages of history in
the years to come, when thousands
of the newspaper critics will have
been forgotten.
Ability counts, aud a man, who
possesses a high degree of intelli
gence, will succeed regardless of
circumstances. Hon. Thos. E.
Watsou, in his own words, is num
bered among the political dead,
but he is now achieving enviable
distinction in another field. His
“Story of France” is a literary
production of rare merit, and is
receiving the praises of the high
est critics in the north, as well as
the south. Small, Maynard &
Co., of Boston, have engaged him
to write the life of Thomas Jef
ferson in their Beacon Biographies.
It seems strange that any Dem
ocratic newspaper should ever
speak slightly of Grover Cleve
land. Here is what a leading
New York paper says:
“If Mr. Cleveland were to allow
his name to be mentioned before
the body that assembles at Kan
sas City on July 4, its reception
would be a spectacle worth going
miles to behold. The man who
should mention it would be fortu
nate if he escaped alive.”
Such criticisms as the above are
frequently found in leading Dem
ocratic papers, and to be candid
we have never been able to see the
sense of such uncalled for attacks.
Mr. Cleveland is a gold bug, and
we are against him on that issue,
but he is one of the greatest men
of this day, and the only man
since the Civil War, that has led
the Democrats to success. So far.
as we are able to observe, he hasn’t
a shadow of chance to be nomina
ted for President in Kansas City
on July 4th; but, if he could be
placed at the head of the ticket,
bis views on the money question
and imperialism would sufficiently
strengthen the democratic party
to carry the east, and, of course,
the south will go solidly democrat
ic, regardless of who may be the
candidate for President. The votes
from these two sections, together
with the votes from the other
States, which would be likely to
go Democratic, would insure suc
cess to the Democrats. But it is
folly to talk about Cleveland or
any other maD than Wm. J. Bryan
for the Democratic candidate for J
the ueat President of the United
States. i
STILL THWT OOMK.
We announce every week the re
turn of some Populists to the
Democrats, sometimes, whole
counties. In this issue, we eclipse
jour previous record on this line,
land are able to tell the remaining
Populists in this county that the
Populists of the whole state of
Alabama have recently given up
the fight, and returned to the
Democratic party. The efforts of
the Populists of that stato to have
a state convention resulted in a
failure, only six counties being
represented. Some discussion was
indulged in by the delegates from
these few counties as to whether a
state Populist ticket should lie
announced, but it was finally de
cided to discontinue the fight, and
no state ticket was named. So
the Populists, so far as Alabama
is concerned, is dead.
When it is remembered that
Alabama was a stronger Populist
state than Georgia, for there was
one Populist congressman elected
from that state, and none from
Georgia, it is rather amiming that
Georgia Populists should be the
last to find out that it is useless
to continue their party or
ganization.
The Western circuit has no op- 1
position for Solicitor General, and '
as the counties of Oconee and 1
Franklin have postponed the se
lection c f county offices and rep
resentatives to a later date they
have decided not to hold a prima
ry, but a mass meeting, and in
this manner elect delegates.
Banks, Clarke, and Jackson will
elect everything on May 15th.
Gwinnett and Walton will hold a
primary for state house officers,
Senator, Congressman, and Solic
itor General, but a small vote will
be polled, as no candidate has
opposition.
Mr. Brand, the Solicitor Gener
al, has written to the chairman of
the democratic executive commit
tee of the counties of Franklin
and Oconee, suggesting that they
had better open a primary at the
court house wheu the mass meet
ing assembled and vote by ballot,
otherwise if the question be raised
the state convention might deny
those counties representation.
A BAD ATTACK.
Hickory Level, Ga., May 4,
1900. Mrs. E. Turner, of this
place, had a bad attack of indi
gestion, liver aud kidney trouble
and rheumatism. She could not
sleep, and was nervous and low
spirited. She began taking Hood’s
Sarsaparilla and three bottles
cured her and made her feel that
life was worth living. This med
icine cured her little son of a run
ning sore, and it has been used in
the family for several years.
COTTON OROWSIII' CONVENTION.
Next Saturday the Georgia Cot
ton Growers’ convention will be
held in Macon, and the eyes of
the manipulator aud consumer
will carefully i ote the proceed
ings of this assemblage and its
probable effects upon the cotton
production of the state.
Iu every wise this will be one of
the most important conferences
ever held by the farmers of Geo
gia. They will not only consult
among themselves aud exchange
experiences, but will confer with
the bankers, the warehousemen
and all business men who are in
terested iu the cotton producers of
the South.
The objects of the convention
are manifold, its chief motive be
ing to unite the farmers on one
plan of action and to seek the
best means of getting reasonable
prices for their product.
Several hundred farmers, bank
ers, warehousemen, and business
men from all over the state will
be in attendance, and the entire
state is interested in it. The pro
ceedings will be conducted at the
Academy of Music and will occupy
all of Saturday.
Macon is making preparations
to give the visitors a warm wel- i
come.—Macon Telegraph.

CATARRH CAN BE BY

••DANGER IN THE EARTH AND AIR; DANCER EVERYWHERE.'*
A Win and Venerable Doctor Talks about Advanced Science.
In a leading hotel, in a great city, a famous and aged physician was convers
ing. Listening to his wise and sententious discourse, were a group of well
dressed men, evidently lawyers, business men and commercial travelers
My firm belief, is “ that medical science is certain yet to show that all dis
eases without exception are caused by invisible germs which are living organ
isms. Here is the germ of that terrible disease diphtheria. Here is the bacillus
of typhoid fever; and here is the still more dreadful bacillus of tubercle which
causes that most destructive of all diseases, consumption. This of that very
common aud supposed incurable disease, catarrh.”
“I wish. Doctor," said the traveling man, ‘-that you would tell us about
catarrh. I have had it for years, and lam thoroughly discouraged."
The Doctor answered. “Catarrh, like diphtheria, consumption, typhoid
fever, and a host of other diseases, is the result of a microbe invading the blood
and attacking specially the mucous membrane. This foul and most disgusting
disease is especially prevalent in the United States and it ie rare to meet one
who is not, or has not been troubled more or less with it. How often is he or
she obliged to remain at home from pleasant entertainments, deprive themselves
of many’ intellectual treats, from fear of the disagreeable odor arising from ca
tarrhal affections. In its worst phase, the patient becomes loathsome both to
himself and his friends. ....... . . ,
“ I believe,” continued this gre*t physician, “that the true way to heal ca
tarrh is to medicate the blood. This can be done only by powerful alteratives
which act as blood purifiers.” . , ..
Betsy A. Marett, of Manistee, Manistee Co., Mich., writes:
Dear Sirs:—For ten years I was a sufferer from general debility and chrome
catarrh. My face was pale as death. I was weak and short of breath. I could
hardly walk, I was so dizzy and had a ringing in my head all the time. My
hands and feet were always cold. My appetite was very poor. On getting up
in the morning, my head swam so I was often obliged to lie down again, i naa
awful pains in the small at my back. 1 had a continual feeling of tiredness.
My muscular power was almost entirely gone, and I couldn tgo half a dozen
steps without stopping to rest, and often that much exercise caused me to have
a pain in my side. It seemed as though the blood had left my veins. The doc
tors said my blood had all turned to water. I had given up all hope of ever get
ting well. • I tried the best physicians in the state, but failed to get any relief.
My husband got me a bottle of Johnston’s Sarsaparilla. I took it, and then I
bought another. When these had been used, I was somewhat improved la
health. I continued its use, and felt I was growing stronger; my sleep was re
freshing, and it seemed as if I could feel new blood moving through my veins. I
kept on taking it, and now consider myself a well and rugged woman. I work
all the time, and am happy. lam positive that the Sarsaparilla saved my life.
The sick headache# I have had since childhood, have disappeared, and my ca
tarrh has almost entirely left me. I cannot be too thankful for what Johnston s
Barsaparilla has done for me. I recommend all women who hare sick head
aches to use your Sarsaparilla.
