SUMMERVILLE NEWS « |1 00 Peb Year In Advance. J. W, CAIN, Editor and Proprietor. EDNA CAIN, Associate Editor. Summerville, Ga., Nov 11, 1896- Entered at Summerville P. O. as sec os<i clans matter. Wough! Gee-whiz! Holy Moses! You Hanna! . n —► • Goodbye bentilinan! Who frowed dat las' brick? Didn’t we get licked, though? —►—• But we licked Palmer and Buck ner. And Massey and McGarrity and others. —• Now let the “welcome ring” and the hewgag blow. - • Now watch the tide of gold turn the other way. Did you see that silver sunset November 3rd? •— Even the roosters hereabouts have quit crowing for day. - ► —• The Republicans are now whet ting their pie knives. Make us thankful for what we are about to receive 1 •——► — • Is a politician said to work like a beaver because he Hings mud? v our uncle Lon Livingston “lit” on his feet again. Lon is a lulu. •—v After all there’s nothing like taking one’s medicine gracefully. It will be a 16 to 1 business af ter all —16 applicants for every of fice. Frank Stanton says theßillville people are still voting and may yet be able to change the result. •——> Now pass the crow while its steaming hot and lets have down with it! u-e-eeh! Judge Maddox made a splendid campaign and deserves the victory he has won. Brag, bluster, blarney and boo dle are factorc to be considered in a political campaign. It looks like a big majority of the people are opposed the free coinage of silver. The Constitution seems to regard the reduced Democratic majority in Georgia with peculiar satisfac tion. Judge Moon. Democrat, was e lected to congress from the Third Tennessee district by a majority over Col. Clift of 2.578. Thousands of people didn't gather around our bulletin board Tuesday night, because we didn't have any. The great issue of bimetallism has been fought to a finish and the white metal is the loser. How the result will affect the business in terests of the country, and what effect it will have on present po litical conditions remain to be seen. The returns show that Georgia sends a solid democratic delegation to congress. They are first dis trict. Rufus E. Lester: second dis trict. James B. Griggs: third dis trict. E. B. I.ewis: fourth district. W.C Adamson: fifth district. L. F. Livingston: sixth district, C. L. Bartlett: seventh district. John W. Maddox; eighth district. W. M. Howard: ninth district. Carter Tate: Tenth district, W. H. Flem ing: Eleventh district, W. G. Brantley. Griggs. Lewis. Adam son. Fleming and Brantley are new man. ERRORS CORRECTED. Our Table of Last Week Is Re vised. Seve-al errors were discovered in the table of election returns published last week which were somewhat misleading. Below will be found a corrected statement which can be relied on as being j correct in every particular. The total vote cast was 1411, be ing about 550 votes short of the ! October election. Levering, prohibition candidate, j got a total vote in the county of 46 votes. Palmer, gold Democrat, got the seen total of 11 votes. Maddox received a majority over McGarrity of 463, and a plurality over McGarrity and Massey of 139. >2 o S’ ss 1 c> g £1 £ g i?

Neel, chairman of the Seventh District Democratic i Executive committee for the faith- I ful and untiring work done by him , in the campaign just closed . i It must be confessed that the I tight was an uphill one all the way, j caused mainly by the apathy and I indifference among the Democrats : of the district, and but for the good management and tireless zeal of ’ Mr. Neel and the splendid cam- Ipaign made by Judge Maddox, the result would not have been nearly Iso flattering to the Democratic party. But all is well that ends well and credit should be given to those -who sided so materially in bringing about that result. ' -■ « I ■■■■■■ • Charles R. Crisp is being boomed ias a candidate for congress from the Tjiird district to nil the unex pired term of his father, the late Judge Crisp. Young Mr. Crisp is highly spoken of as a worthy son j of a noble sire, and his election to fill the vacancy caused by hisfath ! er's death would be a most grace ful thing to do. To Late Candidates. Quite a number of those who an nounced in the News as candidates for o'uce have failed so far to settle for the same. Our terms for these an nouncements are strictly cash, and we must insist that these accounts be set tled at once. We will publish a list soon of all who have paid, and we hope we won t have to omit any names from the list. Please attend to this at once. We need the money and the terms are cash. MENLO, GA. Miss Hermion Boyle, who has been visiting relatives at Holly wood, Ala., returned to this place last Monday. James S. Majors visited Holly wood, Ala., last Monday. Mr. West, of Walker county has moved to the Cooper house in Men lo and will place his children in school. J. G. Majors and family visited Enoch Wade, of Coldwater district last Friday. It was reported that one of Mr. Wade’s children was very ill. Rev. Mr. Parks filled his appoint ment at Ami Sunday. j mt. Springfield of Shinbone val ’ ley, has moved to the G. T. Horton house in Menlo. G. T. Horton has me ved to the Hawkins house, which he recently purchased. Everybody who attended the lec‘ ture of Rev. W. A. Parks last Fri day night report .an enjoyable time. The boys are telling it that two of our young men with their best girls wore very unfortunate in run ning over stumps and falling off bridges Saturday night. Wouldn’t it be a good idea for the young pedestrians to carry a ; light next time. Rev. Chas. Gilbreth of Kensing ton, arrived in town Saturday and will enter Menlo school. The school is on a boom. A large num ber of scholars arrived last Satur day whose names we failed to learn. It will be gratifying news to the friends of Mr. J. W. Wofford to learn that he has been promoted to section foreman and has taken charge of Little River section in Alabama on the Chattanooga Southern railway. Mr. Wofford has been a faithful hand, and rich ly deserves the promotion. It seems that the project to build a college at Menlo is at a standstill. Why is this? Can such an offer be found elsewhere, where an institution of such mag nitude can be established with so small an outlay of capital? What could money be invested in that would be more beneficial to the rising generation than the building of a good college. We are confi dent that if the people would only give a second thought to the op portunity they are letting slip through their fingers they would rally to the support of the enter prise and never stop until the spires lof the handsome building pro | claim to the world that, although small in number, Menlo’s people are equal in enterprise if not su perior to any other town of its size in the empire state of Georgia.

La Grippe | If you have had the Grippe, 0 you know its aches and pains, ~ the fever, the chills, the cough, 4 the depression —you know 1$ them all. The Grippe exhausts g the nervous system quickly, | lowers the vitality. Two things should be done at once: L —the body must be strength- H ened, and force must be given M to the nervous system. Cod- Q liver Oil will do the first; Hy- ■ pophosphites the second. These | are permanently and cleasantly | combined in Scott’s Emulsion, g It lifts the despondency and 3 heals the inflamed membranes of the throat and lungs. But you need net have LA GRIPPE. You can put your system in g a condition unfavorable to it. § You can have rich, red blood; K resistive strength ; steady brain hi and nerves. Scott’s Emulsion E prevents as well as cures. And whether you send or go L for Scott’s Emulsion, be sure I | you get the genuine. I SCOTT & BOWNE, New York. Bank President Isaac Lewis of Sabina. Ohio, is highly respected all through that section. He has lived in Clinton Co. 75 years, and has been president of the Sabina Bank 20 years. He gladly testifies to the merit of Hood’s Sarsa parilla. and what he says is worthy attention. All brain workers find Hood’s Sarsaparilla peculiarly adapted to their needs. It makes pure, rich, red blood, and from this comes nerve, mental, bodily and digestive strength, “lam glad to eay that Hood’s Sarsapa rilla is a very good medicine, especially I as a blood purifier. It has done me good many times. For several years I suffered j greatly- with pains of Neuralgia in one eye and about my temples, es pecially at night when I had been having a hard day of physical and mental labor. I took many remedies, but found help only in Hood’s Sarsaparilla which cured me of rheumatism, neuralgia -and headache. Hood’s Sarsaparilla has proved itself a true friend. I also take Hood’s Pills to keep my bowels regular, and like the pills very much.” Isaac Lewis, Sabina, Ohio. Hood’s! Sarsaparilla Is the One True Blood Purifier. All druggists. sl.

The readers of this paper will be pleased to learn that there is at least one dreaded disease that science has been able to cure in all its stages, and that is catarrh. Hall’s Catarrh Cure is the only positive cure known to the medi ! cal fraternity. Catarrh being a constitutional disease, requires a constitutional treatment. Hall’s Catarrh Cure is taken internally, acting directly upon the blood and mucous surfaces of the system, thereby destroying the foundation of the disease, and giving the pa tient strength by building up the ' constitution and assisting nature !in doing its work. The proprietors I have so much faith in its curative powers that they offer One Hun ! dred Dollars Reward for any case that it fails to cure. Send for list iof testimonials. Address, F. J.
