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

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.

Good Campaign Work,
Too much credit cannot be giv
en to Hon. W. J. 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.

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.

The woman’s page of the Sum
merville News would do credit

lis without doubt the brightest
young newspaper woman in Geor

Cotton is going to market now with
a rush, although theie are a number
of people holding their crops back hop
ing to get better prices.
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.

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.

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,
