Providence is on the side of reality. be cit.z ms are trusting that the trustees will not neglect their trust. Build a college! The one who learns to trust one’s self is about the only one who can be trusted by others. If the Summerville High School is allowed to run down it will be very hard to wind up again: much harder than a Waterbury watch. The New York World averages four papers per second throughout the entire year. The World is the gre t .cst paper in the world. In a race riot in Lima, 0., last week two white men were killed and one mortally wounded. Not a ne gro was killed. O, John Sherman, where is thy bloody shirt? Up in New York they are fig uring to get Jay Gould into the penitentiary. If they were to do I this Jay would by some means or i other own the .concern in a short I while. The Kentucky senate, without a :g vote, impeached Tate, •■.. tiling Slate treasurer, and disqualified him forever from hold ing ollice. S. G. Sharp has been appointed to succeed him. Newspaper men see more of the little vanities, follies and animos ities of the human family than any other class. Viewed through edito rial spectacles the world does not present a scene of harmony and peace. It (the tariff) costs the people five times more than it produces to the Treasury, obsti nets the process es of production and wastes the fruits of labor.—Democratic Plat form of 1876, on which Tilden car ried tiie country. It is a fact that it is becoming impossible for a few Atlanta ring sters to dictate to the people of Georgia how they shall vote. The tariff reform movement that is sweeping over th<*Statc conclusive ly demonstrates this. One newspaper says Susan B. Anthony is now sixty-nine years old. Another newspaper says she was fifty-nine years old at the time of the Womans Convention in 1848. If both these papers tell the truth, Susan grows old very slowly. I he recent death of ex-Attorney- General Brewster at Philadelphia I removes from this sc -no of ae non , the last nirnnb ■:• of President Ar thur’s cabinet. President Arthur himself ami Frelinghnvsen, Folger, Howe, Kirkwood and Hunt, and now Brewster, have all died during the brief period since Arthur occu pied the White House. Nature is never false but she is deceptive. The world appears to be flat and to stand still and the sun seems to move. It was only after patient investigation that the reverse was found to be true. This shows that nature never intended hei secrets to lie known at a <r !anc n and that they are to be mastered < only after labor and patient research. i We see from our exchanges that ' the Mormons are proselyting in va- ‘ lions portions of Georgia. These wayward men ought to be smitten hip and thigh wherever they at- ' tempt to carry on»their nefaric us work. It does not speak well for j the communities where they are tolerated, ftr certainly i n u o en lightened section would there be c found any material suitable for t Mormonism. The Excuse Gone. When called upon some time ago by the citizens of Chattooga to pay for right of way for the C. R. <fe C. railroad through Floyd county, the business men of Rome gave as an excus? for not complying, the prob ability that they would be called upon by Pres. Williamson to sub scribe for stock to the road to secure it where it would be most beneficial to Rome. This probability is no longer probable. The place for the road to cross the river has been selected and consequently the road located, and still the citi zens of Rome have not had, nor is it likely they will be asked, to give or subscribe anything. This being the case the time has come for Rome to pay for right of way through Floyd county. The excuse they gave for not doing so some time ago is no excuse now. The railroad will be completed to this place at an early date and away to Chattanooga will go the trade of this county unless Rome comes up. This is not sentiment but a matter of simple business. What is more, it is a fact. What is Rome going to do about it? The citizens of Rome contributed $175 toward rebuilding the Baptist church at Callieun. | A mother-in-law met a sad fate iin Atlanta last week. She was shot and killed by a son-in-law. Isaiah Walton, of Byron, this state, has five daughters whose com bined weight is 1,000 pounds. A, W. Fite, of Cartersville, is a candidate for solicitor-general of the’(herokee circuit. It is proba ble that S. P. .Maddox, of Dalton, will fie a candidate for the same ollice. The Norristown Herald publishes the estimate of some one that a piece of wood the size of a month ’ j old baby would be worn away one : half in six months if handled as | much as the average baby is. It . j ventures its own opinion that if I the woman who handles the baby 'was made of wood she would be j worn away altogether in six months. | These ideas open up a vast field for I speculation. Following out this i line of thought-, it is easy to see that j jif an editor were made of wood, in six months he would be sitting on I the base of his neck, and that a J pretty girl similarly constituted could not be engaged to be married . for a year without breaking in two at the waist. Its a good thing that all’ of us are not made of wood. Emancipation in Rhode Island. Last week’s election in Rhode Island resulted in a Republican triumph, as was expected. The Republicans elected their entire State ticket by majorities ranging from 1,000 to 2,000 and secured the legislature which will elect a I'. S. senator. The reversal of last year's verdict—When the Democrats car ried the State—may be considered a victory by the Republicans that is worth something but it will be without result on the presidential election. The people of Rhode Island at this election adopted an amendment to their constitution enfranchising about 18,000 voters, who have hitherto, because they did not own sufficient property to be bv the laws in force entitled to vote, been disqualified for voting, and as a majority of these new voters ire said to be Democrats it is prob able that the electoral vote of Rhode Island will be cast for President | Cleveland despite the fact that, it is j Republican now. E. Himes, C. V. Hoffman, G. B. I McFall and I). B. Fleming, of Os kaloosa, Ga., were absorbed in a game of whist a few' evenings ago. After a time it became Mr. Mc- Fall's turn to shuffle, which he did, and after Mr. Hoffman had cut the pack proceeded to deal in the usual ray. The astonishment of the players was great when they found that Mr. Hoffman had thirteen diamonds, Mr. Fleming thirteen clubs, Mr. Himes thirteen hearts, ami Mr. McFall thirteen spades. The chances against such a coinci dence are as 942,645,101,247,793,- 001,923,562.06 to 1. To those who do not believe this we say figure it out for yourself. A Democratic club comoosed of colored voters has been organized at Huntsville, Ala., whose members i pledge themselves to vote for ( leve- i land for president. The <'artcrsville < 'ouranr Amari- < can contains the announ- erne it i that T. J. Lyon is a Candida*. ■ Jc-r 1 ■state senator from th is district. ' Mr. Tilden’s Platform. The Atlanta Constitution makes this surprising statement: Mr. Tilden dictated every word of the St. Louis platform of 1876. The Committee did not change a single line, and they were sensible for not doing so. There was no such fool ishness as Free Trade in it. Nor no such foolishness as “tariff for reve nue only.” His platform was suc cessful and he Was elected. We have recently republished the tariff-reform plank of the Democrat ic platform of 1876, upon which Mr. Tilden carried New York and the country, but as our Southern con temporary seems ignorant of it and it is good doctrine at this time we give it again: We denounce the present tariff, levied upon nearly 1,000 articles, as a masterpiece’of injustice, inequal ity and false pretense. It yields a dwindling, not a yearly rising reve nue. It lias impoverished many in dustries to subsidize a few. It pro hibits imports that might purchase the products of American labor. It has degraded American commerce from the first to an inferior rank on the high seas. It has cut down the sales of American manufactures at home and abroad, and depleted the returns of American agriculture— an industry followed by half our people. It costs the people five times more than it produces to the Treasury, obstructs the processes of production and wastes the fruits of labor. It promotes fraud and fos ters smuggling, enriches dishonest officials and bankrups honest mer chants. We demand that all cus tom-house TAXATION SHALL BE ONLY FOR HE VENUE. This terse and forcible denuncia tion of the war tariff makes Presi dent Cleveland’s message seem mod erate and almost tame in compari son. The sort of “foolishness” that Mr. Tilden’s platform did not con tain was the demand which the Constitution and a few other Dem ocratic journals now make—that the internal taxes on whiskey and beer be abolished inorder to render impracticable any reduction in the tariff taxes on the necessities of the people. Mr. Tilden was too sound an economist and too good a Dem ocrat to favor such a policy as this.—New York "World. Oskaloosa, Kan., has elected a mayor and council, all of whom are women. The citizens of that town, i when speaking of their mayor, will I have to say “her honor,” and the members of the council will have to | be spoken of as “councilwomen” or i “aiderwomen” as the case may be.! The mayor and council had deter-: mined to visit Kansas City and see 1 the workings of that city govern ment in order to acquire knowledge I sufficient to enable them to run their town on correct ond approved ; style, but the mayor's baby became I ill with colic and on this account I the trip had to be postponed. The city “fathers” of Oskaloosa propose' to make things hum, and the News I hopes they may. Ten thousand rotting mail-bags j have been unearthed by the new Postmaster-General in the cellar of the Government repairs shop in Washington. They were the ac cumulations of thirteen years of Republican rule. Many of them had not been used sufficiently to be soiled, but they are rotten and use less now. The shop had until re cently been superintended by a Re publican who had been in charge twenty-seven years. Upon discov ering the rotten mail-bags the Post master-General removed him and gave the place to a Democrat. The democrats of two counties in Georgia, Houston and Clark, in convention have declared for a re-1 duetion of the thieving tariff. Their; action unmistakably shows that the people of Georgia will speak in . no uncertain sound in the State j convention and through their dele- : gates to the national convention at | St. Louis for the nomination of Cleveland and in indorsement of his tariff views. It is stated on the outside of this paper that Mr. Harris was droyvnd ed in Coosa river, this is a mis take. Mr. 11. has turned up alive and well since our outside was printed. We congratulate Mr. 11. and hasten to correct the false im pression as to his whereabouts. A statistician, who has figured upon the subject, says there are 31 criminals to every 1.009 bachelors and only 11 criminals to every 1,000 married men. From this he con cludes that matrimony restrains crime and ought to be encouraged. C, P. Gillette, of lowa, was re cently allowed a pension of $16,000 in arrears and (S 72 a month. This is the largest pension ever allowed by the goy ■ckj; ent. Trion News Items, If nothing more happens to the . peach crop wo will have pie yet. In some places there will be a right smart sprinkle of fruit. I heard some gentlemen say a few days ago that the farmers are more behind with their work just now than for ' many years, owing in a great meas ure to thegainy weather during the latter part of winter and early part of spring. I notice a great deal of ■ fertilizers are being hauled off by . the farmers, and everything points to heavy* crops this year if the sca sons are favorable. The farmers seem to be in good spirits, and are ■ pushing their work with a vim. It I seems that an era of prosperity is . dawning upon upon us, which is truly gratifying. The railroad bridge is nearing completion, and 1 will be finished in a few days if 1 nothing occurs to prevent. The pile drivers have completed their 1 work here, and have moved on towaid Summerville. Before many ’ weeks pass the Long talked of, long ; looked for railroad engine and cars ' | will roll into our midst, but it is rather unpleasant to contemplate the idea of the cars just passing 1 right on through our town without stopping, if Mr. Williamson refuses to allow us a depot as has been in timated he intends doing. O 1 wont that be too bad. Please don’t give us the go by in that manner. We wont do so any’ more. Next rail ! road you go to build through our town we will behave ourselves bet- ; ter. Please let us have a depot. I think the course pursued by Judge Bellah in the case of the two negroes arrested here a few days ago was correct. It is true they might have been prosecuted for a higher grade of crime than that mentioned in the warrant, but as I they were not permanent citizens lof the county’, and the difficulty being confined to them alone, and none of our own people injured, it ■ was better to settle the case as was done rather than keep them in jail , until the fall term of the Superior court, and try’ them, which would have cost the county’ more than the ' game was worth. John F. Allman, who was acci- ■ I dentally shot a few weeks ago, is I able to be out; He was over at the I factory Oil Saturday and fllsti on : Monday. He complains of a slight j pain in his head, which seems to be i all the difficulty he experiences from the effect of the wound. j Sunday morning Mr. C. W. I) nan ' and Miss V. E. (Puss) Tatum were married, Rev; G. W. Thomas oflicia | ting. Mr. Doran is employed on the Ifailroad grade; ' Mr. A. C. Ozmef find wife united with the Methodist church at Ti'ioii Sunday. Rev. Mr. Thomas lias ■ been carrying on a scries of meet ings begun on the second Sun lay in this month. He has hr.d good j congregations and lias done some i good preaching, with what effect I eternity alone will reveal. I am ; sorry to say that a great many of four people here do not take much interest in religion. The meeting I closed Tuesday night. Mr. Thomas Haynes, who has I ■ been in declining health for some ■ t ime, died Tuesday morning between I I ten and eleven o’clock at the resi- j j denee of his son-in-law, A. J. IVor- j | thy. The burial will take place to-day (Wednesday) at 4 o’clock.! ! Mr. Haynes was a member of the i Masonic Fraternity’ and will be! I buried with Masonic honors by TH-1 on lodge. There is less sickness here now than has been at any time | in many years. A step-daughter oft Geo. W. Burns has pneumonia, and | one other young lady is sick, which | is all the sickness in the town so 1 far as I know. One of the old land marks of Trion lias been removed. I refer to the old oak tree that stood onthej corner near Mr. Steele’s garden. It I was dug up for the purpose of giv- I ing more room for the street at that I ' point I suppose. What strange | stories that old tree could relate if j it had the power of speach. Many* j a scheme has been planned at the | root of that tree. There is wlere I the youngsters rendezvoused so • the I purpose of arranging the pro-' gramme for the night or day. M ••11, ! well, some of us will doubtless iol ! low the old oak soon. As we g >w ! old and become enfeebled by age j and descase, we must be removed to | make room for others who are more i vigorous. N. H. Coke: . Some Republicans are repo ted . as wishing that Roscoe Conk! ng, | who is very’ sick, would die bee; use ■ his death would remove a stumbling block from Blaine’s path to the presidency. These republicans u :ed not fret. If fate has fixed one thing in futurity more unalterably than . another it js that Blaine will never i be president. Hon. C. N. Featherston, of Rome, was endorsed last Monday by the bar of that city for a place on Hie Supreme bench of Georgia. Mr. Featherston has acquired an envia ble reputation for legal ability’ 1 throughout the Cherokee country ' and would no doubt make a most excellent judge. The Tribune of Rome says At lanta continues to furnish food for scandal. Atlanta can always be ! relied upon to do this. In the i:n --! mediateness of the heretofore end I in the whenceness of the afterward j Atlanta is hard to beat. POLITICAL POINTERS. Summerville, April 13, 1888. Editor News:—As I stated in a former letter to the News the count y paper is one of the best mediums through which to reach th ? mass of voters for it is read by nearly every one of them, and, what is better, understood. A voter, to vote intelligently, should know something of the lead ing issues between parties; and es pecially Just at this time should the consumers of the necessaries of life unierstand the nature of the iniquitous, burdensome tax which rests upon these same necessaries. I wish you could put that word “necessaries” in big italics. It is the policy of governments, usually, to tax the luxuries only, and this is as it should he, for the payment of this tax is then more nearly volun tary. But our government is in clined to reverse this policy, leaving luxuries for the most part out, and doubling on necessaries. Os course, in this short note, I cannot attempt to discuss the all absorbing subject of the tariff even had I the ability. I was glad when the News opened fire on the right side. 1 hope every county paper in the State will touch up the tariff, the useless tariff, every week, in order to counterbalance the fallacious, misleading reasoning of that widely circulated, bought up chameleon of Atlanta. Voters should be told, and told often, not to be satisfied with a man simply because he | screeches, “I’m a democrat; I’m all j right.” I never saw a drunken fool > that didn’t say be was “all right.” ' Let them request him to state spe-I cifically in what particular he is all right; what he is for and what against. It is quite as important to I elect a tariff reform man to the legislature, as to congress, for a reform legislature means a tariff | reform U. S. Senator. I don’t be ; liete we could do better than re elect Alfred It. Colquitt to the senate. It is true he voted for Granny Blair’s bill, but, for aught I know, the Blair bill may prove | beneficial in spite of its objectiona ble features. Otherwise Colquitt’s record is without blemish. If we ever have another legisla ture willing to elect Uncle .Joey to the senate or any other place of ' power, it otlght to be oblivlonatcd, : annihilated, and banished, before its meeting time arrives. He has ever been a wolf, winking blandly at the people with one eye, while he kept the other wide open and well focus ed on the main chance, and that chance—Jo Brown’s. He has ever antagonized the interests of the people he was elected to represent, and alffays ill the interest of just one—Jo Brown. It is quite time he retired; b.ut money has done much in the past and may do it again. In the coming elections let the people be admonished to know for whom they vote, before it too late. I Dig. | : Come, reason together, and build ! a brick college building before I another session is begun- I We demand that all custom-house taxation shall be only for revenue. —Democratic Platform, 1876. : New York city has 3,263 police ' men. It would seem that this army ;of policemen ought to keep the | city straight. It ( the present tariff system ) pro motes fraud, enriches dishonest of ficials and bankrupts horest mer chants.—Tilden’s Platform, 1876. The strike now in progress on the “Q” railroad is said to have cost the road $2,000,000, and the strikers i over $600,000. The Republicans who want Conk ' ling to die are men who would re joice if all the honest men in the country were dead. History is fast being made. Fred- j I erick, emperor of Germany, is very j sick and will probably soon be call ed to join the silent majority. I Sam Small is going to make At ! lanta his home and Georgia hot on the prohibition question. That is if such a small man can do such a thing. Gov. Gordon is making a good governor. He appears to be no res pecter of persons. Those whom he can remove from office who do not come up to a full measure of duty oi who by their reckless acts cast reproach upon the offices they hold are promptly suspended. The re moval of Frank Harralson, State Librarian, is an illustration in point. Congressman Carleton has intro duced a bill calling upon the gov ernment to pay Mrs. John H. Chris ty, of Athens, the sum of $16,000. Mrs. Christy’s husband, now dead, claimed to have been elected to con gress just after the war. Congress never admitted his claim, however, and he did not press it. The sal ary of a congressman in those days was SB,OOO a year. Mr. Carleton thinks Mrs. Christy is entitled to this sum ; hence the bill, Slmmino L'v?r 3adulator is what the name iii.iicates a ''Reg ulator" of that most important or gan, the Liver.

MarOii April May Are months in which to purify the blood, as the system is now most susceptible to benefit from medi cine. Hence now is the time to take Hood’s Sarsaparilla, a medi cine peculiarly adapted for the pur pose, possessing peculiar curative powers..

It creates an appetite, tones the digestion, in vigorates the liver, and gives new life and energy to every function of the body.
