High Class Druggists
AND— OTHERS.
Tho bettor class of drugpists, everywhere, .are men of scientific attainments and high integrity,
who devote their lives to the welfare of their fellow men in supplying the best of remedies and
purest medicinal agents of known value, in accordance with physicians’ prescriptions and
scientific formula. Druggists of the better class manufacture many excellent remedies, but
always under original or officinal names and they never sell false brands, or imitation medicines.
They are the men to deal with when in need of anything in their line, which usually includes
all standard remedies and corresponding adjuncts of a first-class pharmacy and the finest and
best of toilet articles and preparations and many useful accessories and remedial appliances.
The earning of a fair living, with the satisfaction which arises from a knowledge of the benefits
conferred upon their patrons and assistance to the medical profession, is usually their greatest
reward for long years of study and many hours of daily toil. They all know that Syrup of
Figs is an excellent laxative remedy and that it gives universal satisfaction, and therefore they
are selling many millions of bottles annually to the weir informed purchasers of the choicest
remedies, and they always take pleasure in handing out the genuine article bearing the full
name of the Company—California Fig Syrup Cos. —printed on the front of every package.
They know that in cases of colds and headaches attended by biliousness and constipation and
of weakness or torpidity of the liver and bowels, arising from irregular habits, indigestion, or
over-eating, that there is no other remedy so pleasant, prompt and beneficial in its effects as
Syrup of Figs, and they are glad to sell it because it gives universal satisfaction.
Owing to the excellence of Syrup of Figs, the universal satisfaction which it gives and the
Immense demand for it, imitations have been made, tried and condemned, but there are
individual druggists to be found, here and there, who do not maintain the dignity and principles
of the profession and whose greed gets the better of their judgment, and who do not hesitate
to recommend and try to sell the imitations in order to make a larger profit. Such preparations
sometimes have the name—“ Syrup of Figs”—or “Fig Syrup” and of some piratical concern,
or fictitious fig syrup company, printed on the package, but they never have the full name of
the Company—California Fig Syrup Co.—printed on the front of the package. The imitations
should be rejected because they are injurious to the system. In order to sell the imitations
they find it necessary to resort to misrepresentation or deception, and whenever a dealer passes
off on a customer a preparation under the name of “Syrup of Figs” or “Fig Syrup," which
does not bear the full name of the California Fig Syrup Cos. printed on the front of the package,
he is attempting to deceive and mislead the patron who has been so unfortunate as to enter his
establishment, whether it be large or small, for if the dealer resorts co misrepresentation and
aud deception in one case he will do so with other medicinal agents, and in the filling of
physicians’ prescriptions, and should be avoided by every one who values health and happiness.
Knowing that the great majority of druggists are reliable, we supply the immense demand
for our excellent remedy entirely through the druggists, of whom it may be purchased every
where, in original packages only, at the regular price of fifty cents per bottle, but as exceptions
exist it is necessary to inform tlie public of the facts, in order that all may decline or return
any imitation which may be sold to them. If it does not bear the full name of the Company—
California Fig Syrup Co.—printed on the front of every package, do not hesitate to return the
article and to demand the return of your money, and in future go to one of the better class of
druggists who will sell you what you wish and the best of everything in his line at reasonable prices.
PROPOSED SITE
OF RIFLE RANGE
DUE EAST OF GOLF CLUB.
LENGTH OF NEARLY 8 MII.ES FROM
FIRING LIKE TO RIVER.
But ORf Olmtncle Now In NVny > I
HiiHiik l’luni, Adopted nntk Work

of IntereztH to Hr Held NVit Week.
City nml County Jointly Mny
llnrilea llonil to Lend Uliwtly
From Imatrru End of Perry St. to
Flrlnit l ine of Range.
Much regret was expressed yesterday
that the Interests Involved in the pro
ject to secure anew rifle range for
the militia had not been able to reach
an agreement at the joint meeting the
day before, so that work on the range
could be begun at once. It is hoped
that at the next conference, to be held
probably Wednesday, that more satis
factory results will be accomplished.
Tfle committee representing the mili
tia, particularly Capt. W. G. Austin,
has been untiring in its efforts to have
the new' range built, and with |'nis end
In view, has expended an amount of
energy and accomplished an amount of
work that all interested in the project
would regret to see w'asted, partic
ularly as there is now but one obsta
cle in the way of a suecnsful con
summation of th plans that it has
taken so long to perfect, and which
promise a range that would be the
equal of any in the United States, and
which would be of value not only to
the militia, but to the business inter
ests of the city as well, as it would
mean that many marksmen would be
attracted to the city because of It.
Locution of Hunge.
The site selected for the new range
la peculiarly adapted for the purpose.
It lies a mile and a quarter directly
east of Bilbo canal, where the canal
is crossed by what is known as the
old Jones road, and about 2,000 yards
south of the Tybee track, with which
It is parcelled, extending along the
’Jhigh land, which would forlm the
range proper, 1,000 yards from the
firing line, at the extreme west of the
property, to a line of Confederate earth
works, which would form the back
stop, and then over a track of marsh
that eactends to Wilmington river, dis
tant hom the firing line nearly three
miles.
The width of the range is I.SBO feet
allowing the following plan of targets
which has been adopted for use. should
the range be secured: Beginning at
*he extreme right, four pistol targets
at 25 yards, four at 50 and four at
75, 8 targets at 200 yards, 8 at 300.
For Kitchen
and Bath
Is Cheapest and Best.
One-pound package sc.
AH grocers.
8 at 500, 8 at 600, 8 at 800, 8 at 900
and 8 at 1,000, extending from the last
■named targets to the extreme left
of the range will be a space of 360
feet reserved for use in skirmish firing.
All firing will be done from a general
firing line, which means that all dan
ger is eliminated in the use
of . the range though every
target be in use at the same
time.
Approaches Needed.
In order to make the range easy
of approach the committee of the mi
litia has suggested to a committee
representing City Council that the city
extend and harden Perry street as
far as Bilbo canal, and that the coun
ty authorities continue the work from
that point along the Jones road
through the Lawton property, through
the Golf Club grounds, which it en
ters almost directly east and through
which it passes between the line of
old fortifications, which are now used
as bunkers, coming out to the west
of the golf links directly on the firing
line of the proposed range.
Both the city and the county au
thorities are inclined to consider the
requests favorably, especially as the
new range will be a permanency, and
as the road proposed is one that has
long been needed, and can make ex
cellent connections with other recent
ly Improved roads that are much used.
The property owners who own the
rights of way are ready to donate
these largely on account of the rifle
range.
One of the principal connections with
the proposed road would he the Oaus
ten Bluff road, which it is Intended to
harden, and which would thus furnish
a continuous driveway over good roads
from the city to the range, then around
by the Golf Club, and either to the
city, or to Thunderbolt via Moore ave
nue. Such a road would be of great
convenience and benefit to the mem
bers of the militia, the Golf Club and
the Forest City Gun Club, besides add
ing another good road to the use of
automobllists.
Ri'ttrr Range Tlinn Sen Girt.
How excellent a range the new one
will be, if perfected according to pres
ent plans, may be seen from the fact
that it will have a distinct advantage
over evn so fine a one as that at Sea
Girt, N. J., where many of the great
est matches of the country have been
shot In recent years.
One of the points of superiority will
be the general firing line, the lack of
which is the great drawback to the
New Jersey range. Another great ad
vantage that the local range will have
Is that it could he adapted to meet any
and all requirements.
In proof of this it is explained that
in case the National Trophy Shoot
be held here the targets can be so ar
ranged that forty teams can take part
in the contest at once.

A communication from the members
of the Augusta Bar Association was
received yesterday by Judge Cann ask

the Augusta circuit on the third Mon
day in April. It is probable that the
invitation will be accepted.
Judge Gary is ill and instructed the
Bar Association to employ its good
services in un effort to secure another
judge, to preside in Augusta. The
extending of the invitation to Judge
Cann, in preference to the other Geor

the Democrats can put up, now that
the money question has adjusted itself.
He thinks that Cleveland and Col.

BAINBRIDGE DOCTORS DIFFER.
One of Them Creates a Scene In the
Town Connell.
Bainbridge, Ga., April I.—At a meet
ing of the City Council last night Dr.
R. L. Hicks was asked to be present
and sjiow reasons why he had made
certain statements in an article pub
lished in the Democrat of Thursday
charging that “hundreds of people are
sickt'or dying in Bainbridge for want
of surface drainage. One or more
deaths are occurring every week in
Bainbridge for want of surface drain
age. Yet the town council of Bain

They are spending thousands of dol
lars on a public park."
Other physicians who were asked to
he present and were there, were Drs.
J. D, Chason, Toole, Berry, Morgan,
Cheatham and Chestnut. When asked
as to his statement as to the death
rate in Bainbridge, Dr. Hicks admitted
that he was wrong. The matter of
hygienic and sanitary conditions was
brought up and Dr. Chason made some
remarks. Dr. Hicks replied that the
doctors knew nothing about the hy
gienic and sanitary conditions of the
city. Dr. replied that the
statement was false, as the doctors
were paid to know such things, and
they did know them. Before Dr. Cha
son could sit down, Dr. Hicks got up
and reached Into his inside coat

Police Smart.

SENATORS.
Simmon* Entered I'pon a fritielnm
of tlie Government for Not Invei
tigiiling the I*o*tnttlce Depart
ment— Sold Democrat* Will Have
an Ideal Man for I‘reKident,
Whereupon Reveridjfe I’re*ed
Him Hard.
Washington, April I.—ln the Senate
to-day Mr. Simmons spoke in favor
of the desirability of a congressional
investigation into Postofflce Depart
ment affairs.
Mr. Simmons declared that the in
vestigation into the affairs of the Post
office Department had been limited to
only one branch of the department, and
said that “wherever graft was looked
for there graft was found; that when
ever crime was looked for, there crime
was found: that wherever swindling
and corruption were looked for there
swindling and corruption had been
found.” If all this had been*found m
one branch of the department, there
was no right to assume that similar
conditions would not be found to exist
in other branches. Hence, there could
be no justification of denial of an in
quiry by Congress.
Mr. Simmons said the reason the in
quiry had not been extended to the
entire Postofflce Department was found
in “the fuar that such a condition of
things would be discovered as would
make necessary an inquiry into the af
fairs of ail the executive departments
in Washington, and that such an in
vestigation might uncover a condition
that would cause the defeat of the Re
publican party in the presidential elec
tion."
In response to questions from Mr.
Beveridge. Mr. Simmons said that he
did not doubt that if crime was brought
to the immediate attention of the Pres
ident he would disapprove of it. He
did not concede, however, that the
President had done any more than his
duty, and he repeated his charge that
it had only been refused because of
fear of disagreeable developments.
Only Two Tried.
He called attention to the fact that,
notwithstanding there had been thir
ty-three indictments as a result of the
Bristow report, only two of the fifteen
government employes Indicted had
been tried, and that it is now pro
claimed that both are Democrats.
Mr. Beveridge asked if Simmons
would not concede "that the source of
the fountain head of the corruption
discovered had been found in the last
Democratic administration.”
"So far as Machen is concerned,” the
North Carolina senator replied, “Bris
tow says that is true.”
Mr. Beveridge wanted Mr. Simmons
to admit that all the corruption dis
covered had centered in Machen, but
Mr. Simmons would only say that he
had no information on the subject ex
cept that supplied by Mr. Bristow.
In connection with the charges
against members of Congress. Mr.
Simmons asserted that while all in
criminating charges were givpn all the
exculpating charges have been sup
pressed. He charges that the effort
had been to divert attention from the
department, hut said that the Repub
lican party need not build any hopes
on success in that direction, for, de
spite such efforts the postoffice frauds
would be an issue in the next cam
paign. The fifteen states represented
by Democratic senators had a right to
demand such an inquiry.
"Does the Senator mean to Intimate
that it may result in a Democratic
victory in the South?” Mr. Spooner
sarcastically asked.
Roosevelt Already.
Speaking of the next campaign, Mr.
Simmons said that the Republicans al
ready had in effect nominated as their
presidential candidate the present oc
cupant of the White House. De
scribing the President, he spoke of
him as "a man of spectacular propen
sities, rash, hard-headed and impul
sive a man believed by thousands,
aye, by millions, including many in
the Republican party, to be by nature
and temperament unfitted, because
dangerous, to be entrusted with su
preme power.”
Mr. Simmons then gave 1. atten
tion to the prospects on the Demo
cratic side, admitting that there are
now factional differences in that party,
but claiming that they would be heal
ed and that the party would give the
country “a candidate who would be
sober and of a judicial temperament;
of sound mind and judicial disposition;
a man who will get a large Republican
vote because Republicans will know
that their interests are safe in his
hands.”
A number of Republican senators
demanded the name of the candidate
‘a.nd some suggested “Parker," but

Mr. Simmons declared that he would
"not show his hand.”
Beveridge Eulogizes Roosevelt.
Mr. Beveridge replied, thanking Mr.
Simmons for the warning that the Re
publican party must fight for its life
in the next campaign. He referred to
his Inquiry of Mr. Simmons as to where
the corruption in the Postofllce Depart
ment originated and declared that he
had succeeded in securing the admis
sion that the Postofllce Department
frauds had had their origin in a Demo
cratic administration, and he congratu
lated the country that the discovery
had been made at a time whea there
was an administration possessed of
sufficient courage to apply the lancet
and let out the poison.
He then entered upon a eulogy of
President Roosevelt’s leadership, say
ing that It had been so wise and pa
triotic as not only to command the
united support of his own party in the
Senate, but also to force a division on
the Democratic side of the chamber.
“The Senator from North Carolina,”
he went on, “has told us of candidates,
but not of Issues. We want it under
stood that we shall have issues, and
that we shall not only defend them,
but that we shall attack those who
attack them.” He went on to say that
the announcement that the Democrats
have a candidate is news to every
body, and he Insisted that Mr. Sim
mons should gratify the curiosity of
the Senate by giving his name. “Tell
us who he is,” Mr. Beveridge appeal
ing to Mr. Simmons.
"I decline to enlighten the Senator."
Mr. Simmons responded, “because I am
not myself enlightened as to what his
name will be, but I know what his
qualities will be.”
Mr. Beveridge: "So you have the
qualities and are looking for a man
to locate them on—a bag of vague and
diaphanous qualities without an own
er.”
Mr. Simmons: "Our candidate will
be such a man as will Insure the sup
port of the large element of your par
ty who will be afraid to support your
candidate.”
Parker or Henrstt
Mr. Beveridge: “Then give us his
name. Is it Judge Parker?”
Mr. Simmons: "He’d make a very
good one, but I do not undertake to
say who the candidate will be.”
Mr. Beveridge: "The Senator insists
on reticence as to Judge Parker; pos
sibly he will tell us whether it is his
fellow-citizen, Mr. Hearst. What does
he say to that?”
Mr. Simmons: “I have stated that I
had in mind the name of no particu
lar man; I don’t think the Senator
should press the inquiry further. The
Senator knows it is not proper that 1
should attempt to name the man in
view of the fact that the Democratic
candidate will be nominated by the
Democratic convention, and not as the
result of the dictation of any boss.”
Mr. Beveridge: “Is you candidate
Judge Parker?”
"That iS a secret,” answered Mr.
Simmons.
"Well, is it Mr. Hearst?” again asked
Mr. Beveridge.
"It would be improper to reply,”
said Mr. Simmons.
"Then.” remarked Mr. Beveridge,
‘"according to the Senator from North
Carolina, Judge Parker is a secret and
Mr. Hearst is improper.”
Mr. Beveridge concluded, predicting
great difficulty on the part of the Dem
ocrats in agreeing both on candidate*
