SUMMERVILLE NEWS fl 00 Per Year In Advance. J. W, CAIN, Editor and Proprietor. EDNA CAIN, Associate Editor. Summerville, Ga., Oct. 28 1896- Entered at Summerville P. O. as sec Ossd class matter. A vote in time saves nine! —«» — Love levels all things except the heads of lovers. Dr. Felton lets no moss grow on his political convictions Go out and vote for Maddox and Bryan. You cannot afford to neg lect this duty. Don’t leave your neighbor to do all the voting! Go out and do your part! Li Hung Chang has arrived at Pekin. Wonder if his countrymen will ask him as many questions as he asked us. The newspapers of this section ~ *afe pushing Judge Branham’s can didacy for the supreme court judge ship. It is a good thing. •— The Rome Commercial, under the new management, announces square dealing and fair squealing for all. A man is not likely to appreci ate the economy of his wife in sav ing her wedding dress for a possi ble second marriage. Every Democrat is urged to go to the polls next Tuesday and vote. The man who neglects this duty may have cause for regret hereaf ter. Tom Watson is furnishing as ' much material for the newspaper paragraphers as did hoopskirts a year or two ago. Both subjects are windy. To your tents, oh Democrats! and then from there to the polls! Don’t forget that you ought to x- vote! One time is enough but be sure that’ybu vote that one time! A dyspeptic writer in the Atlan ta Commercial says that October is “beautiful only to the frivol ous,” and here comes Folsom with a prose poem about the “glories of October." Is it possible that our Folsom is frivolous? The death of Hon. Trammell Starr, which occupied at his home m Dalton last week will be regret ted by every one who knew him. He was a genial, pleasant gentle man, with many strong and lovable traits of character, and if life had been spared him he would have been, in a short time, one of the leading men in north Georgia. - I » The computing crank has not thought of Mr. Bryan’s speeches as a basis for calculation yet. He would probably find that their enunciation would furnish air enough to carry a balloon expedi tion party to the Arctics. It does not matter about the Arctics, how ever, if they are strong enough to land Mr. Bryan in Washington. If you are for free silver give your vote to Judge Maddox, re gardless of party, says the Walker County Messenger. On the finan cial question Judge Maddox has made his record. His heart is in the cause and like the true soldier he is, wherever the banner is, there he will be found doing faithful, valiant work. Every man should be able to realize that that there are but two possibilities in this campaign. I Either Bryan or McKinley will be ■ the next president. Either Demo-1 cratic bimetallism or the Republi-j can gold To' the extent of Ato Senator. Now that Judge Crisp is dead much speculation has been in dulged in by the papers of the state as to who will be the most available candidate for United i States senator to succeed Senator Gordon. Gov. Atkinson has been promi nently mentioned as a possible candidate for this very important' office, but of course as yet, the pub- ’ lie knows nothing of his intentions I in this respect. If, however, he should become a ■ candidate, and should be elected, I this creating the necessity for an-1 other election for governor, we' want to suggest Gen. Clement A.; Evans as the man who should suc ceed him. It is not known whether Gen. ! Evans wants the office, or whether ' he would accept the nomination if | tendered him, but if he does want ■ it, then the News believes that he ' should be nominated and elected ' without opposition. Gen. Evans has proven himself every inch a man. He has stood nobly by the party, and the party’s nominee, when he, himself, had gone down in defeat. He has withstood the most pow erful pressure from his brethren of the church in reference to the pro hibition question, and yet, without sacrificing one iota of his prohibi tion principles, or receding one step from his prohibition convictions he has remained true and steadfast to the Democratic party, and has proven his honest and just faith in that party by the work he has done for its success. For good and sufficient reasons the News supported Col. Atkinson four years ago, but if the election of a United States senator should create a vacancy in the governor’s office, then the News will support Gen. Evans to succeed Gov. Atkin son, provided he should desire the position, and will give him its most earnest and loyal support. However it cannot be told just yet what shape events may take, and such a contingency may not arise. Next Tuesday. Every Democrat in this county ought to go the polls next Tuesday and cast his vote for Maddox and ■Brvan. This is no time for indifference and neglect. It is no time to let minor differences interfere with your duty to your party, but every man, who believes in the princi ples of Democracy should use every influence at his command for the success of the Democratic nomi nees. Judge Maddox has never be trayed a trust, or broken a promise made to his constituents. He has been true, in every instance, to the faith reposed in him, and if certain desired financial reforms have not been accomplished, it has not been for lack of earnest support on his part. No man has done more than he has done, therefore he is justly and fairly entitled to the loyal and earnest support of every Democrat in the Seventh district. Go out next Tuesday and vote and get your neighbor to go. It is a duty you owe to your party and to your country. If the new management of the Rome Commercial will throw “Thin Space” into the “hell box” and cure the paper of its political jimjams, all will be forgiven. ■ * * —■— Every vote not cast for Mad dox is a half-vote for Massey. Had you thought of it in that light? You cannot afford, by neglect, to give indirect aid to the Republican I nominee. We are receiving daily the very newest and latest styles in Fall Millin ery. Perfect dreams of beauty at I prices that will astonish you for their I cheapness. *O|U and see. Thomson Hiles & Co. We begin Al this Isssie a splendid ' new story s.A Study in is oys“of a series of the stories which have justly m&j? their author famous. If you miss raid ing it you will miss the Do Your Duty, Every Democrat should do his duty next Tuesday. It is no time for carelessness or neglect. If you believe in free silver as a measure that would -be beneficial to the country, go out and vote for Mad dox; otherwise under present con ditions, there is a chance that the Seventh district may be represent ed in the next congress by a Re publican. There seems to be forces at work now to withdraw McGarrity and to concentrate the Populist vote on Massey. If such a movement is on foot, as many believe, it could, of course, be only partially suc cessfully, for there are hundreds of Populists all over the district who will not be delivered to the Repub lican nominee. Yet it is a fact that some of the Populists are mad and will likely vote for Massey. This fact should arouse the Democrats to a full sense of their duty. Judge Maddox has always stood squarely by his constituents and i has never failed to vote right. The I Democrats, therefore, have no ex cuse for not supporting him, es pecially wb~n there is danger of electing a Republican, who is di rectly opposed to the measures that Democrats hold most dear. Now friends, don’t stay at home because you are busy. It is a duty that you own yourself and your country to go out and vote. Not only that, but get your neighbor interested ; get him to go out and vote; see that every Democrat in your community is thoroughly aroused, and have him understand the situation. Let him know the danger there is in neglect and surely then a full vote will be polled, and a Democratic victory assured. . . > —< Yesterday Mr. J. W. McGarrity Populist nominee for congress, was circulating in poster form, his claims of what he had done in the state senate in 1884, One of the bills he introduced had the effect of making every farmer criminate himself who signed a note for fer tilizers, without stating in the note what it was given for. As the farmer is the maker of such notes, he alone would be the criminal. Mind you, Mr. McGarrity don’t say anything about that part of the bill in his circular, but only mentioned the failure consider ation part. The bill for the elec tion of county school commission ers by the people was introduced by Mr. Hogan, of Lincoln county. Other bills were introduced simul taneously in the house and in the senate. Perhaps he was the origi nator of the bill and perhaps he was not. Mr. Maddox’s effort against the fertilizer bill was such as to prevent farmers from unwit tingly criminating themselves by signing a note given for ferti lizers.

New York ■ Boils It is often difficult to convince peo ple their blood is impure, until dread ful carbuncles, abscesses, boils, scrof ula or salt rheum, are painful proof of the fact. It is wisdom now, or when ever there is any indication of Impure 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 I 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 be able to work hard, I have since done the work for 20 people. Hood’s Sar saparilla cured my husband of the boils, and we regard it a wonderful medicine.” Mrs. Anna Peterson, Latimer, Kansas. Hood’s Sarsaparilla Is the One True Blood Purifier.
