sultan is a desire to Ret back that $90,-
000 indemnity which the United States
forced him to pay for the burning of
American missionary bnildings.
These surmises may or may not be
true. It is not beneath the sultan to do
such a thing, and in fact would simply
be a demonstration of his wily charac
ter. If the proof of such an act could
be secured, the United States could very
easily bring him to terms, but there is
no chance to secure the proof.
THE APPOINTMENT
OF GOVERNOR JONES.
Subscribers arc requested to promptly notify
the baslneM office ofUte delivery, failure to
surry papers to porches or failure to deliver
with absolute regularity on the part of the car
rier*. Such notification is the only meane of
knowing of the existence of any cause for oom-
pUlnt. and will be appreciated accordingly.
THIS STATEMENT
IS POWERFUL THIN.
An effort is now being made to relieve
Admiral Sampson of the criticism that
has been heaped upon him on account of
his having read the proofs of Maclay’s
history and approved them.
Mr. Robert M. Thompson, president
of the United States Naval Academy
alumni association, says that Sampson
Tead the proofs up to the point where
Sohley was oalled a caitiff and a coward,
and that those expressions made him so
mad that he refused to read the proofs
furtbor. Ills secretary completed the
proofs and sent them back to the pub
lisher.
That is a powerful thin statement.
We have never heard anything that
would indicate that Admiral Sampson
was wrathy because Admiral Schley had
been traduced. Everything Sampson
has ever done or said indicates a hearty
disgust for and jealousy of Schley. It
would have been a very easy matter for
him to have written Maclay, denounc
ing the use of those terms that had made
him so mad, or even at the time the oriti-
oisms of Maclay’s history were pnblished,
he might have told this story ana not
himself right.
No. it will take more that a statement
from Mr. Thompson to lift the burden
of criticism from the shoulders of Ad
miral Sampson. A statement from
Sampson, at the very first, disclaiming
any responsibility for Maclay’s history
and giving the facts set forth by Mr.
Thompson might have had some effect,
but at this late day not even each a
statement could relieve the public of the
impression that Sampson thoroughly en
dorses the fight that has been made on
Sohley.
JIM PARKER’S HALO
HAS DISAPPEARED.
The appointment of Ex-Gov. Thomas
G. Jones, of Alabama, to a position on
the federal bench in that state has set
the politicians to guessing about the
future course of President Roosevelt,
relative to the distribution of southern
offices.
There are some who believe he ap
pointed Mr Jones in the. absence of any
thoroughly competent republican to till
the place, but the great majority of
those who study politics agree that it is
the opeuiug up of a new policy, where
by it is hoped to create a split in the
democratic, ranks, break up the solid
south, and build up a strong, whit
republican party in this section.
Jim Parker, the colored "Rent” who
played a brief engagement at Buffalo as
the hero who saved McKinley from be
ing shot a third time by knocking down
and jumping on the assassin, and who
was offered $15 each for the buttons on
his coat, has lost his halo. When the
witnesses were called on at the assassin
trial Jim was not among them. He was
not there to relate to a thrilled audience
how he struck down the assassin and
Raved the president. He was not there
because the authorities knew ho had
done nothing of the kind. Private
O'Brien did what the negro Parker
claimed to have done, and he modestly
related the facts on the witness stand.—
Nashville American.
NEW8PAPERS MISUSE
THE WORD “MARTYR.”
The Montgomery Advertiser very
properly wishes that the newspapers
wo-ld quit referring to the late pres
ident as "a martyr." It says: "It is
an unnecessary and improper term. AU
of us cun find something good to say
about Mr. McKinley, and can say it
truthfully and sincerely, without using
a term which does not apply in his case,
and one which there is no reason for
nsing. The president was the victim of
an assassin. He was not a martyr.”
SULTAN OF TURKEY
18 PLAYING EVEN-
It is now stated that in aU probability
Abdul Hamid, Sultan of Tnrkey, or
dered the abdnotlon of Misa Stone, the
American missionary, and that in the
event the demanded ransom is paid he
will be the person who will eventually
receive It. The motive ascribed to the
SENTIMENTAL BOSK
ABOUT CZ0LG0SZ
And now comes an exhibition of the
rarest sentimental bosh, the application
for execntive clemency in the case of
Czolgosz, the assassin. It is true that
the great majority of signers will be of
a virions class, bat there will be on that
petition many a name of prominence
To what are we drifting when men
can get their consent to ask the comma-1
tatiou of the death sentence in each a
case as this? The law says that a man
guilty of mnrder shall be executed.
When that conviction is secured in the
courts and there is no semblance of
doubt as to the correctness of the ver
dict, it is a disgusting sentimentality
indeed that would override the law and
commute the sentence.
Nothing
Tastes Good
And ratine is simply perfunctory—done
because it must 1>»*.
This is the common complaint of the
dyspeptic.
If eating sparingly, leaving much of the
lisrht. meal provided, would cure dyspepsia,
(gw would suffer from it long.
The only wav to cure dyspepsia, which Is
difficult digestion, is by giving vigor and
tone to the stomach and the whole diges
tive system. It is therefore cured posi
tively and absolutely by Hood's Sarsapa-
illa.
The test
of Frank Fay, 10T* N,
onth Boston, Mass., voluntarily
• thousands of others, should lead
I of this peculiar medicine. “My

Hood's Sarsaparilla
promises to cure and keeps the promise.
Accept no substitute for It.
Tallulah Falls Exhibits
Will Be Seen In Atlanta
Owing to the striking impression
made by several of the most important
exhibits at the Tallulah Falls Exposi
tion, wuich tins just closed, they will
be made a part of the Atlanta later-State
Fair, which is now less than n week off,
beginning October 9th. This will add
vastly to the attractiveness of the great
Fair at Atlanta, embracing, as it will,
practically two big Fairs.
Half a eoore of these exhibits will be
■hipped to Atlanta at once and the work
of arranging them will begin immedi
ately.
This Will Interest Many.
