The Party of the People.
The Democratic party is the par
ty of the pceple. It stands in op
position to a party’ whose princi
ples foster centralization and pro
tect monopolies to the profit and
benefit of the Urge combined in
terests of the country and to the
detriment of the masses of the
people.
The record of the party’ in Geor
gia, especially, has been a blight
and honorable one.
Since the terrible days of recon
struction Democrats have adminis
tered the affairs of the state of
Georgia honestly and to the best
interests of the people. The Dem
ocratic party has given Georgia a
clean, straitforward administra
tion.
A line of noble, patriotic - men,
than whom none have been more
illustrious than the present incum
bent, have filled the gubernatorial
chair, and the people’s interests
have been well cared for in every
department of state affairs.
That there is a wide difference
among Democrats upon the finan
cial question, there is no doubt,
but we do n >t believe that this will
prevent a glorious success of the
Democratic party in Georgia this
year. The Democrats cannot
afford to permit this difference
among themselves to cause them
to fail to carry the state by a large
majority.
The Democratic party is the
guardian of the people and the wel
fare of the country. It may occa
sionally make the mistake of put
ting a man in office who fails to
follow the principles and to redeem
the pledges of the party, but these
are quickly put out, and Democrat
ic principles prevail.
It is through the Democratic
party that the masses of the peo
ple must derive the greatest good,
and it is to the Democratic party
that they must look for the pro
tection of their interests.
While there may’ be some short
lived deflections, instignated by
men whoso desire for office is
stronger than their regard for the
welfare of the people, the number
will grow rmaller and smaller, un
til Democracy’ in Georgia will
again see the time when no one
will oppose the expressed wish of
the Democratic party.—Columbus
Ledger.
The effort of any newspaper to
build up a tow n is practically nulli
fied unleis it is backed up by the
business men. A stranger turns
from the nows column of a paper to
it advertising pages, and if ho fails
to find there the business cards of
the merchants and professional
firms, he comes to the conclusion
that the publiser is not appreciated,
in which place it is a good place for
him to keep clear of. No town ever
grew w ithout the active assistance
of its newspaper. Nor can papers
grow- and build up their localities
without the assistance of the town.
Business men should realize this
and remember in giving support to
the newspapers they’ are not only
building up their own business,
but helping to support that which
is steadily working for the growth
of the whole town. —Franklin

About four years ago a ropresen
tatiue from a south Georgia coun
ty’ was married in Atlanta. Before
this, however. a day’ had been fixed
for the wedding but the groom was
so drunk he couldn't travel, and so
it was postponed until a later date.
This time he turned up sober and
the marriage occurred. This little
episode occured while the writer ;
was in Atlanta, and is brought to '
to mind again by the fact that the !
prohibitionists in the aforesaid!
gentleman's county’ have recently
nominated him as a candiddate for
reprerentative in the General As
sembly. The man is rather promi
nent in politics, and a good fellow,
but rather given to looking on the
wine when it is red. But perhaps
he has reformed.

In Memoriam.
, Mrs. Essie Etna Scogins, daugh
ter of Mrs. and Mrs. B . F. Duna
way, was born in Chattooga county
November 12, 1876;professed faith
in Christ and was received into
Ebenezer Baptist church in August
1892, and was truly’ a model Chris
tian. She was married to Mr. T.
. H. Scogins November 3, 1894, and
. departed this life December
, 1895, leaving a husband and in
fant daughter, a father, mother,
brother and sister. May the Al
mighty in his goodness console
them in this dark hour of their
, tribulation.
Sister Essie died as she had lived
a beleiver in Christ. She said
while on her bed of aflliction that
she was willing and prepared to
die. Dear Essie was indeed a shi
ning light, a noble example. She
was loved and admired by all who
knew her, and her sweet influence
is yet, and will ever be felt among
her numerous friends, and espec
ially the young. O, how we do miss
her when we go to church and can
not see her as we once could; but
she is gone and we can only hope
that all who had the privilege of
k nowing her will strive to meet
i her in that “sweet, bright forever”
j where there is no parting. And
while we as friends mourn her
I death, what must be the anguish
■ of that father, mother, brother and
sister, whose home was made hap
py’ by’ her presence. The holy joy
.is theirs of knowing that angel
' eyes are now watching for their
coming, and that your beloved one
will receive you when “life's dark
■ day’ is done.”
A precious one from us has gone,
A voice we loved is still;
A place is vacant in our home
That never can be filled.
God in His wisdom has recalled,
The boon which love has given;
And though the body slumber here,
Her soul is safe in Heaven.
To them in their deep bereave
ment, our hearts go out in the most
sincere and tender sympathy. And
be it therefore reslved,
1. That we bow in humble sub- 1
missission to the will of our Heav
enly Father, knowing that hedoeth
all things well, and that all things
work together for the good of
them that love the Lord.
2. That in the death of Sister
Scogins Ebenezer church has lost
a faithful worker in the church
and Sunday school; her bereaved
husband a devoted wife, her broth
er and sister a kind, loving and
generous sister, her parents a love
ly, obedient and affectionate
daughter.
3. That a copy’ of this memo
rial be spread on our church min
utes and a copy be furnisned the
family, and that the Chattooga
News be requested to publish the
same. Beulah Smith.) Com 1

Tribute of Menlo Baptist
Church.
A conference meeting met to
consider what testimonials of res
pect could be shown to the memo
ry of our brother, Rev. D. T. Espy,
whose death occurred April 3, 18-
96.
He organized Menlo Baptist
church August 7, 1892, with thir
teen members, and served the
church fifteen months as pastor.
During that time it increased to
seventy-one members. He worked
faithfully and always encouraged
us; in writing to a brother in Jan
uary 1896, he said; “It has always
been the great desire of my life to
see a strong, live church at Men
lo,” and resolved that we try to
make it such.
Let us as church members strive
to imitate his Christian wa k, and
carry out the work he so faithful
ly pointed out to us. In 1894 lov
ing hands planted a tree at the
west end of the church in his,
memory’. Long may’ it flourish
there, its leaves trembling over his ,
work, and whispering in the even
ing air a requiem to the early dead.
We feel that we can freely’ mingle
our tears with those most near and
dear to him, and feel that ours is
a common sorrow, and that we
mourn with a common grief i
Where shall we look again for such
generosity’, such high sense of hon
-1 or?
Resolved, that we mourn his ,
■ death, that we deplore his loss,'
and extend the warmest sympathy '
to the family, bereaved and sad- I
dened by the heavy blow. That we
' offer this, not as a consolation to
■ them, but only as that mitigation
1 of pain which comes to the sorrow-,
' ing ones in knowing that the
stricken form bore a noble and
manly’ part in the battle of life
that the hand now cold had ever
found warm greeting grom earnest
palms. That though his spirit
has passed from the present life,
his memory will remain hallowed
in the hearts of his friends.
Resolved that a copy of these
proceedinsg be sent to the family’ I
of the deceased, and one copy be '
spread upon the church cook, and
copies be furnished the Trion Echo
and the Chattooga News for pub
lication. L. M. Hendon,

“MAYBE A SERMON—
MAYBE A SONG.”
Too Sore to Soar-
Now I fully intended writing gentle,
springtime fancies this week, things
that couldn't possibly shock anybody's
feelings, things that would make those
people who read me consider me a very \
amiable, harmless sort of person. I
am sorry 1 must forego the exquisite
pleasure of being considered amiable !
and harmless, but there are things that |
prevent my soaring any on the wings 1
of fancy this time. Possibly my new ,
frock isn’t a success; possibly I have ■
no Easter bonnet, (I haven't) but these
things are nothing whatever to you,
dear reader, and I do not intend to
gossip about my personal affairs. It is i
enough to say that 1 am too sore about
something to soar. Moods like this :
come to people of certain temperaments |
often, when circumstances are disa
greeable. Circumstances have been
disagreeable to me, and I, in turn, pur
pose making myself disagreeable for a
bit. I feel like a worm that has been
trodden upon and teased, and 1 am go
ing to “turn,” now.
The Worm Turns—
That scriptural injunction, “let your
communications be yea, yea and nay,
nay,” was spoken before the time of
newspapers. But today the press and
; the pulpit are ranked side by side as
j the greatest powers in the land, and to
! exist, newspapers must have more ex
tensive communications than those
quoted above. It is an assured fact,
■ though, that if newspaper readers
would coniine themselves to “yea and
nay” the editor’s head would lie more
, easily. (Knowing the weakness of
human nature, I wilt state that, b v
“lie,” I mean rest, sleep, lest an un
charitable construction be placed upon
my words. Some editors I believe do
I not lie unless they belong to the op
i position political party, and then we
think they lie whether they do or not.)
But to resume, a writer of newspaper
sketches aud stories must have much
imagination and the gift of turning the
most trilling fact into a palatable or
piquant bit of reading, as occasion de
mands. But sometimes—oftentimes—
the public rather unwisely insists upon
fitting the stories or suggestions upon
| the writer, or some other equally inno-
I cent person.
Now for instance—for you must
know this outbreak is not for nothing—
last week I mentioned incidentally, “a
little woman who was of the opinion
that women hadn’t a dog’s chance, and
who had a big husband who was the
soul of hindness to her,” and because
of that lam in frantic trouble! No,
the “little woman” isn’t after me—nor
will she be, for she doesn’t read my
' stuff—but some folks have kindly bus
' ied themselves and unearthed a little
I woman with a big husband, the soul
Jof kindness, who is after me. Those
kind friends told her that I had been
' writing dreadful things of her, and I
pretended to be such a friend to her,
’ too. Who would fancy my heart so
■ depraved? etc., etc. Os course they
’ didn’t hit upon the right woman and
there’s where the trouble comes in. It
' is really a great deal bettei - not to wor
ry over these matters unless one is sure
to be right. Os course I don’t mind
my part in it, but I regret that the in
nocent “little woman” should have
been dragged into it. Any woman has
a right to feel hurt when she is accused
of slandering the men in that fashion.
| I said a woman “had a right to feel
i hurt;” but this one hasen’t; she and I
I are good friends—still.
I
i The Gossip Microbe—
All this naturally suggests gossiping;
it has led up to that subject inevitably
and possibly there might be a little
' disappointment if I did not write of it.
. In view of this fact I hasten to deliver
myself of the opinion that there’s a
■ very great deal of it—an amazing deal
of it—going on. Who does it? Who,
indeed—l’d like to know, myself. It
seems to be in the air like the microbes.
We breath it in along with the sun
shine and the ©dor of violets and the
miasma, disease germs, and whatever
; else inhabits our Tttmosphere. And
I the trouble doesn’t end with breathing
\ it in—oh, no! we breathe it out again!
I And it frequently happens this mi-
I crobe, which is a bit of “news,” a hint
or suggestion about sombody, acquires
many frills and furbelows as *it goes
the rounds. Somebody adds a little
here, and somebody a jot there, until
its own mama doesn’t know it when it
1 gets back home—or it’s papa, either.
The most innocent little mistake is
made sometimes, and if le f t alone to
lie naked in the sunshine of truth it
will soon wither; but some one
takes it up, it is nourished in the shade
of suspicion and it grows and bears
those gaudy flowers of easy scorn and
amusement. It is now large enough
to cast a shade over somebody’s life
that makes the sunshine seem daik for
awhile, and that is a shame, truly. It
isn’t charitable even to tell the simple
truth about people sometimes. Besides |
there are always preachers and editors ■
here for that sole purpose—the latter
to tell the tale and the former to point I
the moral. But they pay dearly for
this high privilege, I tell you so on the
word of a “little woman” who writes j
for the papers and signs herself

It is often difficult to convince peo
ple their blood is impure, until dread
ful carbuncles, abscesses, boils, scrof

the fact. It is wisdom now, or when
ever there is any indication of

blood, to take Hood’s Sarsaparilla, and
prevent such eruptions and suffering.
“I had a dreadful carbuncle abscess,
red, fiery, fierce and sore. The doctor at
tended me over seven weeks. When the
abscess broke, the pains were terrible, and
I thought I should not live through it. I
heard and read so much about Hood’s
Sarsaparilla, that 1 decided to take it, and
my husband, who was suffering with
boils, took it also. It soon purified our
Blood
built me up and restored my health so
that, although the doctor said I would
not bo able to work hard, I have since
done the work for 20 people. Hood’s Sar
saparilla cured my husband cf the bells,
and we regard it a wonderful medicine.”
