A contemporary asks: “How shall

grandmother.
A French astronomer, who has

Mars through strong glasses, has

not only inhabited, but that the
people there are actually building

than ver in these, our distant

We have succeeded in making
our readers acquainted with the
views of Messrs. Reece, Shumate
and Clements upon the tariff ques
tion. As well as can be judged
thus early, the candidate nomina
ted for corgress from this district
will be one of the gentlemen named
• above. Judge Branham and Col.
Phillips are practically out of the
j race, and their supporters, reali-
> zing this, will make no decided es-
> fort in their behalf. Col. Phillips
' mav get the vote of his own county,
Cobb, and Judge Branham may get
< the vote of FJpyd, but neither are
! by any means certain of a single
' vote. We have heard that Judge
Branham intends to decline making
the race, and to throw his influence
’ to Ca.pt. Reece. If this is true, the
Captain will be a formidable com
petitor.
The views of the three leading
- candidates are, in the main, the

suffer in the hands of either.

Hens as Missionaries.
In enforcing, in a recent sermon,
the point that there are no condi
; tions, however unpromising, which
may not be utilized for developing;
good results, Rev. S. W. Lee, of
Mobile, Ala, relates how Rev. D. C. ’
Brown, a circuit preacher, raised i
his missionary assessment. He was
sent to a very poor circuit in North !
Georgia. He recognized that if he!
raised his missionary money he I
would have to adopt extraordinary!
measures. This he determined to
do. He made a round on his
circuit and asked his sisters of the
church if they would give him a
hen each. Forty-live of them com-
I plied with his request. He also had i
! them promise to set these hens and
i to let the proceeds go toward the
) mission: y cause. At one time he
i had forty-five missionary herik.each
sitting on as many eggs as she!,
could well cover. In the course -of |
a few weeks the preacher had per- ■ ,
haps as many as 509 missionary!
chickens. When t hey reached that i'
interesting age in the life of aj
eldcken known as the “frying size,” !
they were sold, and the proceed;'j

LETTER FROM JU, CLEMENTS.
House of Representatives,)
Washington, D. C. May 28, ’BB )
Mr. J. W. Cain:—Dear Sir—
Your favor asking my “views upon
the tariff question” came too late
for reply last week. The power of
the government to exact from the
citizens a part of his earnings is a
great one and should be exercised
only for legitimate and constitu
tional purposes. Every dollar ex
acted beyond the necessities of gov
ernment honestly and economically
administered is so much oppression.
For several years past the reve
nues under present laws have ex
ceeded the expenditures, large as
they have been, and it is safe to say
that they have been several millions
larger than they would have been
had there been no surplus. Last
year alone the excess was sixty
millions of dollars and there are
one hundred and fifty millions now
accumulated in the tieasury of sur
plus. With this on hand and in
view of the annual increase of rev
enues it is perfectly safe to reduce
at once the annual income seventy
live or eighty millions of dollars. I 1
believe that the reduction should be
made upon the necessities of life in ,
daily and universal use among the
people. As far as possible many of j
these should be put on Hie free list, !
and others greatly reduced. But |
we must deal with things as they '
are and as we can. With the solid
opposition of the Republicans in i
the House ancl in view of our small .
majority of only about fifteen we
' cannot hope to pass just such a bill !
■as I believe would be right. The
interests <Jf the people of this great '
country extending from ocean to |
ocean and from the gulf to the
I lakes are so varied and conflicting, ;
embracing the great agricultural, j
commercial, manufacturing and 1
mining interests of the most active I
and progressive people of the whole
j world, that it is difficult to frame a I
! measure that can secure the votes |
: necessary to pass it. The funding I
! bill of the Ways and Means Com- !
; mittee proposes reductions by add
; ing to the free list a large number ■
i of articles of common and necessa- [
ry use among all the people, such !
as wool, woolen goods, blankets, i
underwarc, etc., salt, cotton ties, !
soap, and many others amounting!
to about $22,000,000; also reduc
tions on articles left on the dutia- j
ble list, amounting to nearly $30,-1
000,000, and the tobacco tax in all !
forms, including the license for sale I
thereof except on cigars and che-1
roots amounting to about $24,000,-!
000. I believe other articles might!
have been put on the free list and I
the cost to the consumers thereby I
reduced, but this bill if passed will
be a long step in the direction of
equality and justice to the whole !
people and would leave for circula- ;
tion among the people this excess, j
so much needed for that purpose I
but which is now being absorbed by !
the treasury, there to lie in idleness
causing stringency and threatening !
panic in thp financial world and in
viting extravagant and wasteful !
appropriations. Any legislation
upon this question with our very
small Democratic majority, and a
part of that not in accord with the
proposition to reduce the tariff,
must, of necessity, be the result of
concession and compromise. It is
that or nothing. Therefore I am
for this bill as the best that can be
done now. If the great body of the
people—the consumers throughout
the country—only realized the
amount of tax paid by them daily
in the enhanced price of the goods
they use, caused by the tariff, and
the fact that about four-fifths of
this tax goes into the profits of the
i protected monopolies they would
demand a reduction of their bur-
! dens in a manner that would not
|be ignored. There is no authority’
i in the constitution noris it consist
lent with honesty and good morals
I for the government to lay prohibi
tory taxes for the purpose only of
taking from the earnings of the
many to insure the profits to the
few. It should collect taxes only
for public purposes limited to the
public necessities and beyond this
leave every citizen self-reliant, to
pursue happiness and prosperity
under equal laws.
Very truly yours,

IN MEMORY’.
God, in His all-wise providence,
has again visited the Baptist church
and Sunday’ school of Summerville;
and taken from their number one of
the most beloved members and pu
pils, Della Maxey, the only daugh
ter of J. W. and M. J Maxey. She
died of typhoid fever Saturday noon,
May 26th, at the age of II years
and 18 days. During the part of
her sickness in which she was ra
tional she was often heard to ex
claim : “O, merciful Father,” which
showed her confiding trust in Him
in whose army she had become en
listed. One evening of the series
of meetings of 1886 she joined a
little band of girls, some of whom
were Christains, who were going to
a quiet place for prayer meeting.
After hearing some of her associ
ates tell of the great love of the Re
deemer she gave her young and
tender heart to Him who said:
“They that seek Me early shall find
Me,” and accepting the first oppor
tunity she, with some of her play
mates, presented herself as an ap
plicant for membership in the
1 church, which was granted with
j much joy. After which she was
! always one of the members who
! grasped a Bible and w’ent to some
i undisturbed spot there to sing, talk
and pray’ with and for those who
would go with them, desiring also
to be Christians which often re
! suited in the happy union of si.als
i with Christ, and such results would
j persuade them to leave their place
I of prayer and meet us at our door,
! telling us by the angelic smiles
! with which their faces were clad,
■ that they had won other souls for
the Master. We are assured that,
! though she was young, a Hower not
full blown, and only a short time in
' the Savior’s vineyard, she had tro
) pilies to cast at Jesus’ feet, and
i that she has been gathered from
I this earthly field and carried up
! higher, there “To be kept in the I
j Crystal Vase in the deathless man
: sions above to make Heaven fairer
! and sweeter with her immortal
! bloom.” She was a frequent visitor
! of our family, always by her ch mr
j fill voice and light footsteps bri:ig
! ing pleasure into the home circle.
! She often gathered with us around
! the table—often knelt with us
I around the family alter—which
bound us together both in natural
! and spiritual love. We offer our
i prayerful sympathies to the bereav
ed family, hoping that her death
may be sanctified to their good.
Father and mother remember our
! Savior said: “All things worl? to
gether for good to them that love
the Lord,” and also his prayer:
“Father, I will that they also whom
thou hast given me, be with me
! whet'b I am.” Let your anticipa
! tions be for that time, when, with
j ecstasy’ beyond our comprehension,
you will meet her on the shores of
i eternal bliss, to part, no never. And
I another comforting thought is that
your family is now represented in
; heaven. While she will be sadly
missed by father, mother and broth
! ers, throughout their home; she
j will also be missed in her class, by
j teacher and classmates; in the
choir, the social prayermeotings,
the “girl’s prayermeeting,” and in
the families she visited. Others
may take her seat in the Sunday
i school class; but still in memory
we preserve it as hers. She will
■ never more mingle her voice in the
praises of God on earth, in which
, she so much delighted; but we feel
she sings with heaven’s minstrels,
j in sweeter and clearer strains, the
i praises of the Lamb.
“Ween not, dear parents, for sh? is
J at rest,
i She is sleeping, but not forevernmro,
i But loaning her head upon Jesus’
On the banks of the ]X'ariy shore.”

Tha Romarkable Cures
Which have been effected by Hood's
Sarsaparilla are sufficient proof
that this medicine docs possess pe
culiar curative power. In the se
verest cases of scrofula or salt
rheum, when other preparations had
I been powerless, the use of Hood's
Sarsaparilla has brought about the
happiest results. The case of Miss
I Sarah ('. Whittier, of Lowell, Mass.,
| who suffered terribly from scrof
ulous sores; that of Charles A.
Roberts, of East Wilsofi, N, Y.. who
I had thirteen abscesses on his face!
| and neck; that of Willie Duff, of
Walpole, Mass., who had hip dis
ease and scrofula so bad that phy- '
sicians said he could never recover, !
are a few of the many instanced in !
which wonderful cures were effected
by this medicine.

Trion News Items.
The track on the railroad was
laid to the end of the trestle work
where it joins the bridge last Satur
day afternoon between four and five
o’clock. As the men who put up
the bridge had foreclosed a laborers'
lien against the same which had not
yet been settled, the track layers
were ordered by Constable Carroll
to not lay tiack on the bridge and
so the work came to a stand still.
Yesterday (Tuesday) the matter
of the lien against the bridge was
settled, the men receiving seventy
five cents on the dollars for their
claims, and work on the bridge was
resumed. The track will be laid
across it today, and then they ex
pect to move forward very rapidly
laving two miles a day, as the force
will be doubled. Another strong
force of convicts will be put to work
on the lower end and in a couple of
weeks, if nothing interferes, the
tracklayers will meet and the trains
will pass through from Chattanoo
go to Rome. The first engine and
train of cars came to Trion last
Saturday p. m. but stopped just at
the f4Rce back of the church which
is corporate limit, but yesterday
p. in. the engine and train rolled i
into the town proper : a portion of
the train crossed the wagon road i
near the river.

An 1 important Announcement.
New York, May 5, 1888.
Gentlemen: I feel In duty bound '
to you, as well as to all sufferers by
rheumatism, to write to you my ex
perience with this terrible desease,
and the use of Swift’s Specific, hop
ing that these words will be benefi
cial to all who suffered as I did.
About six weeks ago while in bus
iness, I was suddenly attacked with
excruciating pains in my feet,
knees and hands. So severe the at- |
tack that I took to my bed immedi
ately, and in two or three days my
joints were swolen to almost double
their natural size, and sleep was
driven from me. After suffering
the most excruciating pain for a
week, using liniments and various
other remedies, a friend, who sym
pathised with my helpless condition
said to me:
“Why don’t you get Swift’s Spe
cific and use it? I will guarantee a
cure, and if it does not the medi
cine shall cost you nothing.”
I at once secure 1 the F. S. CJ . and
using it the first day, had a quiet
night and refreshing sleep. In a
week I felt greatly benefited. In
three weeks I could sit up and walk
about the room, and after using six
bottles I was out and able to go to
business. Since then I have been
regularly at my post of duty, and
stand on my feet from nine to ten
hours a day, and am entirely free (
from pain. These are the plain ,
and simple facts in my case, and I
will cheerfully answer all inquiries
relative thereto, either in person or
by mail. Thomas M arkii.i.ie,

It Is a Curious Fact
That the body is now more suscep
tible to benefit from medicine than
at any other season. Hence the
importance of taking Hood’s Sarsa
parilla now, when it will do you the
most good. It is really wonderful
for purifying and enriching the
blood, creating an appetite, and giv
ing a healthy tone to the whole sys
tem. Be sure to get Hood’s Sarsa
parilla, which is peculiar to itself.

Be Sure
If yon have macle up your mind to buy
Hood’s Sarsaparilla do not be induced to take
any other. Hood’s Sarsaparilla is a peculiar
medicine, possessing, by virtue of its peculiar
combination, proportion, and preparation,
curative power superior to any other article.
A Boston lady who knew what she wanted,
and whose example is worthy imitation, tells
her experience below:
To Get
“ In one store where I went to buy Hood’s
Sarsaparilla the clerk tried to induce me buy
their own instead of Hood’s; he told me their’s
would last longer; that I might take it on ton
days’ trial; that if I did not like it I need not
pay anything, etc. But he could not prevail
on me to change. I told him I knew what
Hood’s Sarsaparilla was. I had taken it, was
satisfied with it, and did not want any other.
Hood’s
When I began taking Hood’s Sarsaparilla
I was feeling real miserable, suffering
a great deal with dyspepsia, and so weak
that at times I could hardly stand. I looked,
and had for some time, like a person in con
sumption. Hood's Sarsaparilla did mo so
much good that I wonder at myself sometimes,
and my friends frequently speak of it.’’ Mrs.
Ella A. Goff, Cl Terrace Street, Boston.
