Bishop Turner was announced a few days ago and he was followed by a num ber of other prominent colored men. Last Friday VV. A. Pledger, one of the most widely known colored men in Georgia and as astute a pol itician as there is in this state came out for the governor. He says that Governor Atkinson has been the colored man’s friend and, there fore, he is for the governor. Pledger recommends that his race cast their ballots for the governor. In an Interview last week Pledger said: “First I favored fusion, but si tide the populists are ashamed of the republicans as a party, we must, as individuals, do the best we can, and that 1 shall do by standing by Governor Atkinson, and thousands of others will, perhaps, do likewise, I am sorry that Governor Atkinson is head and shoulders above his party, for I like to see the party bigger than the candidate. I never have supported populists and never will, for I have never been able to understand their communistic the ories. They seem bent a striking down corporations, the very source of Georgia’s prosperity and success, and urging other bad things, and I am sorry democracy is following in their wake, but Governor Atkinson, so far as the interest of my race is concerned, rises above parties in the contest for gubernatorial honors We huow him to be a man for jus tice to all his constituents, and this is all that is required. The reason we know it is because he has been tried, and, since the republicans make no nomination, I recommend that the ballot of the negro be given him. I shall vote and talk for him. Accept Nothing Elsei Let the Voice of every prohibi tionist go forth, “Indepehdent of party, independent of everything” —we will vote for men who will vote in the legislature for the Anti- Barroom Bill—men who will un flinchingly stand up for its passage. This means more to Georgia now than any other measure. Let no prohibitionist accept anything else. Don’t let the enemies of this meas ure mislead you. Don’t believe them when they tell you that it is like unto the South Carolina dis pensary law—or the Barnesville or Athens laws. Don’t believe a pro fessed local optionists when he comes to you and tells you that the ate and great Bishop Haygood was in favor of local option. If he were alive t '-day he would vote for tho men who would vote for the abolishment of barrooms. Don't regard the willful misrepre sentation of the papers, and the men who peddle it around, that Rev. W. A. Chandler, one of Georgia’s truest and most decided prohibitionists, will vote against the Anti-Barroom Bill. Such a statement, the Wesleyon knows to be untrue. He has never had it in his heart to do this, nor has he ever, in any interview, intended to be so understood. He is for the Anti-Barroom Bill. And so are a majority of voters in the State of Georgia. Accept nothing else.— Wesleyan Christian Advocate. A Timely Reminder. Each season forces upon our con sideration its own peculiar perils to health. The advent to fall finds many reduced in strength and vig or, poorly prepared to continue the business of life. The stomach and bowels, the great highway of ani mal economy, is especially liabe ; to disorder iu the fall. The ner vous system has suffered in the struggle. Typhoid fever and ma laria in particular find in the fall that combination of earth, air and water that mark this season as es pecialty dangerous. The falling leaves, the decaying vegetablescon-' tribute their share of contamina-! tion. Hood’s Sarsaparilla furnishes a most valuable safeguard at these important points, and should be used in the fall before serious sick ness has laid you low. AGE FOR ATKINSON. A Leading Negro Newspaper Declares Unequivocally for the Governor. The Southern Age, one of tho .foremost newspapers in Georgia, I that are edited and controlled by colored men, has come out llat footed and unequivocally for Gov ernor Atkinson and the entire state democratic ticket. The Southern Age is the succes sor of The Advocate, which during the last state campaign was such a vigorous supporter of Hines and Peek. The Advocate changed it name to the Southern Age when T. T. Fortune, of tho New York Age, bought an interest in it. For tune was for many years a corress pondent of the New York Sun in the south and ho stands among the most prominent colored men in the United States. The leading edi torial in this week’s issue is as fol lows : “During tho gubernatorial cam paign of 1802=414 this paper sup ported the people’s party ticket be* cause they were pronounced in their platform against some of the methods of the men who conduct campaigns and elections in this state and because we believed tWf live parlies should exist within our boundaries, and also because we hoped that in time the populists would fuse with the republicans and give us recognition on their state ticket, but this they have persistently refused to do, and since they, knowing that it was ow ing to republican votes and sym pathy that they came nearly elects ing their state ticket and placed several of their candidates in the legislature, we believe their action a slap in the face of every republi can in the state and one which they should vehemently resent. “Yet, in spite of all this, know ing they cannot hope to win with out out support, when we ask tl em for some meager recognition for our votes, we ate spurned. After having served them faithfully and well, what thanks do we get for it? Not a single thing. It occurs to us that if they refuse to give us recognition now when they need us most, they will give Us less when they are safely in. In this dilem ma we believe the Afro-American can best subserve his interests by voting for the other side—the At kinson administration. In this ‘land of the free and the home of the brave’ let no man or set of men insult your manhood without re senting it in the proper way. We therefore take the position that since Governor Atkinson and his administration have done their duty like men, without fear or fa vor, and since the populists could have shown their friendliness but didn’t, we should support the At kinson administration in the next election and see to it that all those on this ticket are elected.” u In advising all colored voters to support Governor Atkinson, the Age says: “There are two candidates for the executive chair of onr grand old state —Hon. Seab Wright, of Rome, and Hon. W. Y. Atkinson. “The Afro-American should use all his influence in this election in favor of Governor Atkinson for not in the history of Georgia have we ever had such a man in the ex ecutive chair as our present gover nor. “There is not a governor in the union that has shown himself more pronounced against lynching than Governor Atkinson. “The governor is a man that has shown his ability as an executive officer, regardless of color or party, and if each man does his duty on election day they will cast their votes for Governor Atkinson, and influence their friends to do like wise. “The governor is not like most governors who are controlled by party leaders; he is a man to act just as he believes is just and right. We know this of our present gov ernor, and do not know of his op ponent's ability only by the fol lowers and himself. Let every one rally to the support of Governor W. Y. Atkinson and have at least two more years of hostility to lynchers and the chaingang sys tem. ‘ The populist candidate for gov i ernor is now trying to talk ‘sweet , talk’ to the ignorant class of vo i ters. \\ by is it he rather give j Governor Atkinson the cities while he t'fkes tho swamps? Is it be cause the people of the swamp are more easily fooled than the people of the cities? “It should make every Afro- American’s heart leap with joy and gratitude toward Governor Atkin son when they think of his excla mation : ‘This lynch law business must be stopped.’ Where is there another man who has uttered such an exclamation in the south?” GEORGIA'STAXRATE. It Has Been Fixed for the Coming Year. Atlanta, Ga-, Sept. s.—Governor Atkinson and Comptroller General Wright held a conference today and agreed upon 416 as a tax rate for the present year, and a procla mation will be accordingly issued. This is the same rate ns last year, and is the maximum allowed by the legislature. The SIOO,OOO sinking fund is provided for in this levy. The total value of property returned in the State for taxation is approximately $412,000,000, an increase of over .$2,000,000 over last year’s returns. The returns of realty and perso nal property this year show a fall ing off of $1,000,000, but the rail roads return some $3,000 more than last year, the Central railroad alone giving in $2,000,000 on its main lino from Macon to Savan nah, which has never heretofore been subject to taxation under an exemption granted in its old char ter. The total amount to be raised by taxation for the expense of the government is $2,860,680. After meals you should have simply a feeling of comfort and satisfaction. You should not feel any special indications that digest ion is going on. If yoU do, you have indigestion which meansnot digestion. This maybe the begin ning of so many dangerous diseases, that it is best to take it in hand at once and treat it with Shaker Di gestive Cordial. For you know that indigestion makes poison, which causes pain and sickness. And that Shaker Digestive Cor dial helps digestion and cures in digestion. Shaker Digestive Cordial does this by providing the digest ive materials in which the stomach is wanting. It also tones up and strengthens the digestive organs and makes them perfectly healthy.

Caillouette, druggist Beaversville, 11l , says: “To Dr. King’s New Discovery I owe my life.

Absolutely pure ENGINE’S FEABFUL PLUNGE Locomotive on the Piks’s Peak Cog Railroad Dashes Down the Mountain With Fearful Velocity. Colarado Springs, A ng. 31.—The first accident on the Pike’s Peak Cog railroad since it was opened, five years ago, occurred yesterday and but for the safety breaks used on all cars of this line, a train load of passengers would 'have been hurled down the mountain to de struct io n. Coming down the mountain the side bars on the the driving wheels on both sides ofjthe engine broke apart, rendering she compressed air brakes cn tho engine useless, Conductor Cupman applied the automatic 'r brakes in the passen ger coach and stopped it. The engineer and firemen weto compelled to abandon the engine, which was beyond control and it went down the §5 per cent grade at a terrific speed for nearly half a mile, where it struck a curve, jumped the track and shpt through the air for fully 150 feet, going clear over a boulder 15 feet high upon the mountain side. It ploughed immense Holes in tho mountain and the trailer and engine separated just as tho engine exploded, hurling iron and steel in all directions. The train was a special, carrying Manager Frank Harrison and a party of London & Northwestern railway men and Major S. K. Hopper, of tho Denver & Rio Grande railroad. A Valuable Prescription.

A paper is in no sense a child of charity; it earns twice over every dollar it receives, and helps every enterprise in contributing to the upbuilding of a town or commu nity, says a western weekly.

Ex-President Harrison Praises Both the Officers and Men. General Harrison, in his “This Country- of Ours”article in Septem ber Ladies’ Home Journal, writes of ihe War and Post-Office Depart ment of Justice, and in connection with the first-named he pays this tribute to our standing Army: “Our Army is small, in fact, and minute, when copared with any’ of the ar mies of the great powers, but, under the operation of recent laws relat ing to enlistments, and of laws in tended to protect tho rights and promote the self-respect of the pri vate soldier, and to relievo him from assignments to menial duties, the quality and esprit de corps of the enlisted men are higher, I think, than ever before, and the character and military skill of theofficersare of a very high order. * * The use of the Army—either upon the call of a State to preserve the peace of the State, or under the direct or ders of the President to suppress resistance to tho laws of the United States—has become more frequent of late years, and more than one community has owed its deliver ance from the frenzy of a mob to tho presence of a small detachment of United States troops—men who would do what they are ordered to do, and nothing without orders. There is no menace to the liberties of tho people in our little Army, but its trained and patriotic officers may again, in the case of a great war, as in 1861, become the organ izers and leaders of great armies; and, with the little army of trained men they now command, will, with in the Constitution and the laws, during our longer years of peace, be the conservators of public order.'’ Its Value Recognized by Physi cians.
