in a bonded warehouse erected by
a private individual and stand
there until the tax becomes due,
but in no case is the government
liable for any expenses incurred.
In the storing the distiller exe¬
cutes a bond, the condition of
which, among other things, is for
the payment of the tax upon the
spirits produced by him, and,
when the spirits are placed in the
warehouse which he is required
to provido, and additional bond,
known as a “warehouse bond,” is
executed for the payment of the
tax upon said spirits. In addi¬
tion to the distillery, premises
and apparatus are liable for tax.
The government has a first lien
upon the spirits themselves for
the tax due thereon. /Until this
tax is paid the government has
the custody of the spirits by its
officers in these bonded ware¬
houses, At the expiration of
three years or sooner, if the own¬
er desires the possession and use
of the spirits the internal revenue
tax of 90 cents a gallon must be
paid. Very respectfully,
•John W. Mason, Commissioner.”
AN ATHEISTIC SCHEME.
In the last issue of the “Peo¬
ple’s Party Paper” appeared a
a communication from M. M.
Pomeroy, more generally known
as ‘Brick” Pomeroy, which de¬
serves more than a passing notice
from every good paper in Geor¬
gia.
C. C. Post, the atheistic, anar¬
chist, communistic editor of that
paper, and the would-be leader
of the People’s Party in Georgia,
wrote to Pomeroy, the editor of
the “Advance Thought,” an athe¬
istic paper published in New
York, for a contribution to the
campaign fund of the People’s
Party in Georgia. Pomeroy, in
his reply, states that lie ig finan¬
cially unable to contribute any¬
thing to said fund, but will allow
him, (Post) to receive subscrip¬
tions to his paper, the “Advance
Thought,” at a reduced rate, and
to appropriate all the money re¬
alized thereby to the campaign
fund of the People's Party in
Georgia. He further urges all
sub-alliances to subscribe at least
$2.00 to this fund and receive
thvee copies of the atheistic pa
per in return. Mr. Post, in com
menting on the letter, advises all
alliancemen and others who are
in sympathy with the People’s
Party to forward their subscrip-
tions at once.
This proposition has a dual
meaning. It aims to increase in
circulation a paper whose teach¬
ings are entirely agtagonistic to
the Christian religion and at the
same tine furnish money for the
advancement for a political cause
which cannot bear the test of the
light of truth. It m#aps the ask¬
ing of money at their hands for
the purpose of aiding a political
movement founded on hatred,
passion and prejudice. It means
the following of a man who once
said in Douglasplle that he
would give five dollars to a brass
band, but would contribute noth¬
ing to a Sunday-school. It seeks
to promulgate a doctrine in Geor¬
gia -which is at present compara¬
tively unknown. This doctrine
tells men that religion is a farce,
God a myth and eternity a noth¬
ingness. It says tear down our
churches and do away with our
Sunday-schools, destroy our Bi¬
bles and burn our hymn books.
Will our people countenance
such teachings?
This atheistic scheme origina¬
ted in the fertile brain of one G.
C. Post, the man who is said to
be the leader of this new light
party in Georgia—this party
which proposes for the govern¬
ment to own all railroads, pension
all Union soldiers more lavishly,
to allow women to vote and “kick
up jack” generally. But the
Madisonian gladly and truthfully
states that the followers of this
party are growing beautifully
fewer as the days go by, and ere
the November winds come they
will be as scarce as “hen’s teeth.”
The Post-Pomeroy atheistic
third party scheme will not work
in Georgia.—Madisonian.
0 NL Y110 PE OF R ELI OF.
A private letter from speake Crisp
sa.s: “We realize fully the absolute
need of some relief. Our party is
p ! edged to repeal the unjust and un
equal laws, but of course it cannot d<
this until it gets possession of ali the
departments of the government
When aur people reflect about this
and realize the fact that the ICpubli
c m pai tv is responsible for the xis
thg bad laws it seems to me that
they must concede that their only
hope of relief is the Democratic parly,
and that division amonS themselves
can only rasult in keeping the Re¬
publican party in power.

When Leather Whs Money.
Leather was very early used as a cur

this purpose before either gold, silver
or brass came into common use. His¬

The subject oi fruits is one which de¬
serves more than a pacing notice.
Some parents would withhold them al¬
together from their children until after
the second year. This is a very good
general rule, but it will admit of ex¬
ceptions. It is an undeniable fact that
some of them are most wholesome
foods, and the earlier children can be
accustomed to them the better. Very
many even before they are two years
old can safely take, and are much ben¬
efited by, tlie juices of sweet, mellow
fruit. Children also frequently suffer
from habitual constipation, and these
juices act far better than medicinal
remedies.
Notwithstanding all this, the giving
of fruits to children before they are
two years old should be very guarded,
and limited to the juices of those which
are positively fresh, known also to be
easily disposed of in the system and
not likely Ko cause diarrhea. As a
child approaches its third year, its iil
lowarico of fresh fruits may be more
generous, due care being invariably
nsed in their selection; still, modera¬
tion should be the rule, for intemper¬
ate indulgence in oven tho most digest
able fruits is quite sure to be followed
by unpleasant, if not serious conse¬
quences.
Those fruits which are very acid, and:
require much sugar to make them pal¬
should be withheld. Oranges,
and peaches, if perfectly ripe
and sound, may be occasionally allow¬
ed, unless, of course, there is an irrita
jility of the stomach and bowels. Pears
r.re less digestible than t hese, but if
thoroughly ripe can do no harm if not
toe freely indulged in. — Host-Herald.
