Now watch G. Cleveland and A. Thurman get there, Eli! It is said no one can arrest th- Hight of Time, but any one can stop a minute.- Ex. Now stand back and see the red bandanna whip the bloody shirt un til it won't know itself. Hon. John li. Taylor is a candi date for congress from the district now represented by Mr. Grimes. Ex-Senator Tabor, of Colorado, uses a bar of gold worth $12,000 as a paper weight. It holds thep 'per down. The fact that Allan G. Thurman ’ has a clean record after living for a long period in Ohio speaks vol umes in his favor. The Republicans show a disposi- ! tion to laugh over the Der oeratic i ticket. They will weep over their own ticket in November. It- appears that some people in Rome actually thought that prohi bition laws would stop the sale and consumj tion of whisky, A Thurman speech : “1 feel t- n years young-.”.' since I was nomina te I by the Democracy for vice-pres ident.” (Tremendous applause). ■ “A Halt on the Divide,” is the picturesque and truthful head-line which the Topeka Commonwealth puts o'-o r the news of Sheridan’s reconnoitering of death. Judge C. C. Kihbee, the present incumbant, and Hon.D. M. Roberts, of Eastman, an able lawyer, are avowed candidates for the judge ship of the Oconee circuit. The Democratic candidate for governor of North (’a.iolina is Fowle I and tie- candidate of the same partv | for the same office in Arkansas is Eagle. With such lenders the Dem- ! ocrats ought to fly. A convention of parrots will soon ! be held in Turin, Italy, and it is ex- ’ pected that a great many wise old ’ fellowswill be present.

(let right on; the re ■- is not s rotten ; 1 -■■„ ~ y , nail in it and nothing small ebon tJ ! the men who are on it except their I « rascality-■ Hip-hip-hurrr.h-li-h I;; j ( p An Enthusiastic Contempo rary. The Chattooga News gays: “Rome, after bragging for three or four weeks about the good effects of prohibition, has now awakened to the fact that men still drink in prohibition cities. Rome is learn ing what the balance of the world already knows.” Yes, when Rome and Floyd county went “dry” they fully expected whisky would be sur reptitiously smuggled in from Chat tooga and Gordon counties, which still cling to the “flesh pots” of that which causes nine-tenths of the crime, pauperism, widows' tears and orphan's woes of our land, and wrings from the tax-payers great drafts from their pockets to pay) for the excessive court litigations I year in and year out. But we have! a mayor not to be fooled with on : this liquor business, as Chattooga has been apprised of recently, in his demands upon a Summerville mail-carrier of a deposit of S2OO in the city treasury, or 30 days break ing rock “pro bouo publico,” for bringing your devilish stuff in our midst. Try it again, won't you, and our determined mayor will go for you to the tune of SSOO and twelve months in the chaingang. Three times three cheers for Mayor Ayer. —Rome Clipper. Now, we assure our angry con-; temporary that we haven't sent, nor ; have we caused to be sent, any whisky to a single one of Rome's; thirsty citizens, ami, therefore ■ Rome’s determined mayor will not just yet fine us SSOO nor send us to the chaingang twe’ve months, one or both. As much distorted as Rome’s prohibition ordinances are they do not authorize even a deter-: mined mayor to send any one to the chaingang more than six months; I for a single violation, and it would ‘ ) take a very determined and a very! lawless mayor to impose a sentence j of twelve months, as the Clipper- I would have any Che believe. i So far ns is known Chattooga. county has not smuggled any whisky into the city of Rome. That; citizens of Rome have become; thirsty and have sent to Chattooga county for whisky is true, but if this is smuggling Rome is the guil-) tv party and not Chattooga county. ) The people of Chattooga county are as a whole law abiding and) scorn to resort to smuggling to I evade the law. No; the sins of I Rome can’t be justly charged to) Chattooga county. Now, then, a word to the excited (‘lipper: When the waves of the Atlantic and Pacific oceans by a mighty effort rise up out of their beds and kiss each other across the highest peaks of the Rocky and Alleghany mountains then Rome will be a prohibition town. Then your citizens will be thirsty no more, and then no more- will you be grieved and your soul be vexed at their violation of prohibition laws, i Do not get excited—’o excited that; 1 you want to send us, who are inno- 1 I vent of violating Rome’s prohibi- - tion laws, to the chaingang twelve | i months, when ti e hi diest penaltv i ; only six months—and watch for ' the signs of the waters of the oceans, for by them you will know when prohibition goes into effect. ) Cleveland was unanimously nom-, ) inated for President by the St. Lou is convention last week. Thurman) was nominated for vice-President! on the first ballot, receiving 712 | votes, while Gray received 97 and) Black 32. Before the conclusion of the ballot it was moved to make! Thurman’s nomination unanimous,' which was done. The platform adopted is in harmony with the! President’s message, and strongly; declares fora reduction of the tarii'. The Vi ills bill was unanimously en-; dorsed and its passage recommend-) cd. Thus squarely committed to a! reduction of the tariff and with | Cleveland and Thurman as leaders the Democracy appeals for endorse-, ment to the people. From the out look now there is not much doubt but that in November it wili be I forthcoming. T. I. N.

Thci'c are many ways in which I malicious pei'sons can give vent to that trait of character and still not lay themselves open to a flat-footed charge of slander or make them selves liable for damages. The most complete illustration of this proposition is found in the Atlanta Constitution of date of June 13th. That paper, while professing to be friendly to Cleveland, deals the most powerful blow yet aimed at him. It is intended as an annihil ator, and unless warded off by a timely exposure, cannot fail to have a most appalling effect. In its is sue of above named date the Con stitution says many flattering things ; J J 00 ■of Cleveland, and at first glance ; any one would Conclude that it was ready to fight, bleed and die for him. But this is a delusion made all the more reprehensible by the mode adopted in carrying it out. In this paper is a picture intended to represent the President. And such a picture! It makes the President look like a Berkshire hog, an ou rangoutang, a monkey—anything! in fact except the great President of this glorious country. Several life-long Democrats have come into this office, viewed the picture in astonishment, and, when told who ; it was intended to represent, turned ) sadly away, muttering, “I can’t vote for s.ich a looking man as that!” The picture will deprive Cleveland ) of the support of many such men as ) these unless their minds are freed from the idea that it is a correct likeness. The picture, however, does not resemble the President; neither does the President resemble the picture, its appearance in the ! Constitution is the result of a deep laid plan, the diabolicalism of which was probably never equaled by the ! conclaves of darkness in its gloom ) iest councils, to stub Cleveland in i the house of his supposed friends. It is as complete a case of foul play as was ever originated, and we brand it as such. We are here to expose such schemes. Our facili ties in this line are unsurpassed, and those who want to keep posted ) as to the tricks employed to defeat the will of the people and turn this great country over to the Republi ) cans had better subscribe for the News without delay. J. C. CLEMENTS. The following is the closing par ! agraph of a speech recently deliv ered by lion. J. C. Clements in con- I do not object to the incidental protection afforded by necessary taxation, but the present high and prohibitory tax is leading to the aggregation of money in the hands of a few, which is not production of wealth, but simply the transfer of it. The laborer, the man who toils and takes wealth out of the earth, is the man who produces it. It is ; not produced by a system of trans -1 fer, absorption and accumulation. ! Yet this is pointed to as evidence ) of thrift and prosperity, because it results in great manufactures at particular places, forgetting that the masses of the penile from whom it has been taken are lingering and struggling along for a bare sub sistence. IVhtit is the effect? The result is that wc have already inau- Iguratedin this .country a system) i which will male the debtor class, in) the North as well as in the South, I ■ dependent alike. Money is loaned ; upon mortgage on real estate! ) through money-loaning associations ; 'all over the country. The rate of j ; interest, lai ge itself, is doubled by! : commissions paid to men who ne-; gotiate the loans. These mortgages ; ; rest upon men who have little farms | | without other means than their j ) labor to pay the indebtedness, and ) who, under this system of protec ' tion, get. deeper in debt each year ;as the interest accumulates. The result will be that this class will be turned out homeless, and the real estate of the country, as well as the money, will he largely aggregated in the hands of the favored few 1 through a system of oppression up |on those 'who will become pauper ) tenants like the tenants in Ireland. Sorrow is transformed by time I into a pleasant memory. We look [on the face of a dear one for the last time with intense anguish; but when there has been time for grief to be assuaged, we recall all the good qualities of the departed and muse on them till the thought be comes a pleasure. Aiany a middle aged or old person will admit that the memory of one child who died in the lcve>ine.:.> of early youta is now more agreeable than the at tractions of yoy one that lived to! full maphpnb -><l womanhood.

Bodily and mental health depends upon a healthy condition of the blood. The blood particularly in the spring and summer months, becomes clogged with impuriti'. s, which poison and generate disease. A harmless blood purifier is nee s sary to restore a healthy tone. 'Die best purifier and tonic known is Swift’s Specific (S. S. S.). Os its wonderful purifying and tonic pow ers we give a few testimonials: Mr. AVm. A. Siebold, with G o. B. Rowell <fc Co., 10 Spruce Street, New Yo'k,writes: “I feel it my duty for the benefit of others who may be afflicted as I was, to write you this letter, which you can use in any way you choose. I suffered great pain from boils, all over mv neck; I could net turn my hi .id [without acute 'pain. After tni:::r I all the usual remedies, and finding no relief, I used one bottle of S. S. S., and very soon I was entirely >•■•- ) lieved of my “Job’s Comfort'. : .'’ ) Now not a sign of my affliction can be seen.” Mr. M. S. Hamlin, AA’inston, N. . C. writes: “I use it every spring. ;t always builds me up, giving me - ) peti e and digestion, and enabling me to stand the hot summer day.;. On using it I soon become strong of body and easy of mind.” Mr. C. E. Mitchell, AVest 23d St. Ferry, New York, writes: “I weigh ed 116 pounds when I began taking your medicine, and now 152 pounds. I would not be without S. S. S. for several times its weight in gold.” Treatise on Blood and Skin Di s eases mailed free. The Swift Specific Co, Draw er 3, Atlanta, Ga.
