W During the American Revolu
tion an English magazine pub
dished an estimate of the future
[population of the North Ameri
can eolouies. Placing the popu
lation then at 2,000,000 and as
[sumipg that it would double itself
[every twenty-five years, the writer
[estimated that in the year 1890
[the number would have increased
[to 04,000,000. This may be taken
[as a most remarkable prophecy,
Eyiasmucb a? the census of 1890
[fixes the total population at 62,-
622,250.
I The Alpharetta Free Press says
[that the wholesale merchants of
Atlanta ought to spend some
miouey in an effort to catch Will
[Myers, and intimates that the
|trade of the city has fallen off be-
Icause of the murder of Forrest
|C row ley, and the fear on the part
lof country merchants to visit the
■city. We fail to see how the
■wholesale merchants of Atlanta
lare either responsible for the
■death of Crowlby, or under obii
fcations to offer rewards for his ap
prehension. The “country mer
chant” who is too timid to go to
».tlauta to buy goods, because of
the murder of Crowley, would
probably be afraid to go there to
pay for them.

Eagle, insists that he is a good

W hen flicker, the negro 'collec
' tor of internal revenue for this
sffate, was first appointed, he was
1 besieged by a crowd of hungrv re
publican*, of all colors and condi
tions, for appointments in his de
partment.
To their demands he simply re
plied that he had no patronage to
I distribute, because the deputy col
■ lectors and gaugers were under the
! civil service rule, and could not be
removed, except for inefficiency or
[ neglect of duty. m
This was good news to the few
democrats holding commissions in
| the revenue service, whose thirst
! for government swill was stronger
j tlian self-respect, or caste preju
| dices, but it created an insuppress
j able racket among the small fry
I republican office seekers, which
| threatened to disrupt the party in
Georgia,
But there is, at last, a rift in
the cloud of gloom and despair
that has been hanging over the
loungers about the Atlanta custom
house for the last few months,
through which a ray of hope is
shining into the hearts of this
motley aggregation of patriots.
The attorney general of the
United States has recently decided
that each collector of internal
revenue has the right to appoint
his own deputies, because he is re
sponsible for the faithful and
proper discharge of the duties in
cident to the position, and should
have control of his subordinates.
This ruling seems to be sup
ported by reason and common
sense, and we are glad the attor
ney general has taken that view of
thequestion. The republicans have
control of the federal government
for the time being, are responsible
for the administration of its
affairs, and have the legal and
moral right to fill the offices. If
they see fit to turn out white dem
ocrats, and put negroes in their
places it is all right, so far as we
concerned. In fact, we would like
to see it done, as a decent negro is
preferable to a white democrat
who is willing to degrade himself
by accepting office under a negro
boss.
Put the guillotine to work. Mr.
Rucker, and we will clap our hands
at every “dull thud” made by a
so-called democrat’s head falling
into the basket.
It will thrill our very souls with
joy to witness the consternation
and despair of the pretended dem
ocrats and populists who betrayed
their state and parties by voting
for McKinley and negro domina
tion in Georgia, when they behold
such scenes being enacted, and
-Ciijue to realize the crime they
committedTast NovTSTTiutT.” against
civilization and the Anglo-Saxon j
race.
THE YELLOW FEVER.
There has not been much change
in the yellow fever situation dur
ing the past week. There havo
been about 427 cases in New Or
leans, and an average of 15 new
cases per day. Many of those first
strisken have recovered, and the
disease is of an unusually mild
type, the death rate not exceeding
12 per cent. There have been 95
cases in Mobile, and 15 deaths.
58 patients have recovered and 27
are now under treatment.
Edwards, Mississippi has been
more severely afflicted than any
other locality. It has a popula
tion of 1200, and there have been
344 cases, and 15 deaths. 195
have recovered and been dis
charged from treatment, and 184:
are now down with the fever.
It is now certain that there will j
not be a widespread epidemic, as
it is too late in the season . Unless
the fall is unusually warm, there
will be frost in two or three weeks,
and this will effectually stamp out
the disease.
The Atlanta Constitution printed
a cartoon in a recent issue illus
trative of the idiotic course pur
sued by the state of Alabama
since the present yellow fever out
break, which was a decided hit. It
showed a line of soldiers around
the state boundries, with a placard
in the middle bearing the historic
inscription, “keep off the grass,”
while “Jack Frost” is kept from
crossing over the dead line by
these terrified guards, and putting
an end to the scourge. The quar
antine which has been established
against Atlanta by the Alabama
health authorities is not only
cruel and senseless, but has done
the state infinitely more harm
than the yellow fever scourge. It
bus been demonstrated, .by the
experience |of more than forty
years, that yellow fever is not
infectious in the freestone belt of
north Georgia. Thousands of
refugees from infected

of medicine for it. At last I found
a remedy that effected a cure and
that was Chamberlain’s Colic.
Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy.”

pended upon for colic, cholera
morbus, dysentery and diarrhoea,
It. is pleasant to take and never

Electric Bitters.
Eletric Bitters is a medicine
suited for any season, but perhaps
more generally needed whe the lan
guide, exhausted feeling need of a
tonic aud alterative is felt. A
prompt use of this medicine has
often averted long aud perhaps
i fatal bilious fevers. No medicine
nill act more surely in counterac

the malarial poison. Headache,
Indigestion, Constipation, Dizzi

A few weeks ago the editor was
taken with a very severe cold that
caused him to be in a most mis
erable condition. It was undoubt
edly a bad case of la grippe and
recognizing it as dangerous he took
immediate steps to bring about a
speedy cure. From the advertise
ment of Chamberlain’s Cough
Remedy aud the many good recom
mendations included therein, we
concluded to make a first trial
of the medicine . To say that it
was satisfactory in its results, is
putting it very mildly, indeed . It
acted like magic aud the result
was a speedy ana permanent cure.
We have no hesitancy in recom
mending this excellent Cough
