A WORD.
Keep Your Flag Flying, and Hold
Your Banner Aloft.
I see from tlie papers that the state
railroad is to be sold, and that the
chairman of the railroad commission
favors the idea in order that the coun¬
ties through which the road passe
may get the benefit oj the tax arising
from 1 he road -
I see further that Mr. Alexander of
the DeKalb New Era, combats this
idea by showing that the tax obtained
in this way would be a mere bagatelle
com pared with the loss the state would
sustain in ceasing to gt-t the rental
L am surprised that Mr. Alexander
should have based his objection to the
sale on this ground, The constitution
provides that money derived from the
sale of public property shall be used
only for the payment of the public
debt, and the law further provides
that the bonds of the state shall not be
paid beforp maturity
Chairman Crenshaw prices the road
at twelve million dollars, but fails to
say what disposition is tube made of
the twelve millions till the state bonds
are due, fifteen years hence,
Who is tote the custodian of this
snug little sum?
I suppose it will be turned into the
state treasury, unless some other safe
place can be found for it.
Of course the deposit will only be
teuipoaary as the members of the leg¬
islature will have to be seen aud a
number of newspapers will have to be
consulted and at least one million will
be required of to Georgia, build a and depot the worthy banks,
the staie
railroad and whiskey men will be glad
to have a let up in furnishing cam¬
paign funds while this twelve million
is lying idle in the treasury or some
otner safe place. Editor, that
I am truly glad, Mr.
this suggestion to sell the state’s best
property came from a foreigner and
not from a native Georgian. Let Mr.
Gress have the honor.
The sale of the state road at twenty-
five millions would be suicidal with
the present political junta in control
of the state’s affairs,
Justto think of the effort of the
“men who control” to have a prece¬
dent established to go to the treasury
for any and everything the ringsters
may want, upon the order of the gov¬
ernor backed by the opinion of the at¬
torney general who has an opinion for
any and every emergency.
No, Mr. Editor! Hang out the dan¬
ger signal and warn the people of this
insiduous scheme to rob the state of
the finest properties in the land.
1 dislike to write thus, but what are
we going to do? There has certain y
been a great deterioration in public
morals since the days of Stephens and
Jenkins* the commanding dignity,
the courtly elegance, the open, frank
urbanity of former days have been
displaced by the vulger mannerism of
the the politician, olden days and the rugged supplanted honesty
of has been
by the loose views of the time server
and the legerdemain of political jug¬
glery is passing for political acumen
and patriotic devotion to the state's
best interest.

the state road let ns adopt the policy of

This scheme to sell the state road
has.not been equalled in eoruption and
shameless audacity sine*- the Yazoo
fraud,and unless the people are put
upon notice and warned of the danger
the conspirators will succeed 1.1 this
foul attempt, to rob die State.
There hever has been a time since
the formation of the populist party
that its success was more important to
the best interests of tie country than
the present,
The wild hunt for office, the brazen
faced disregard of moral obligations,
the utter absence of ttatesmanship in
our leg’sla ive councils, the sordid
love of gain, the blind worship of gold
are enough to bring the blush of
shame to the brow of every philan¬
thropist in our broad land.
I had hoped that even democracy
had become so disgusted with the
shameful campaign of Candler and At¬
kinson that the state would not be
cursed with another such a disgrace¬
ful exhibition of human depravity,
but from the present indication I fear
we are doomed to witness another
carnival of savagery.
The discussion of questions of pub¬
lic policy seems to be entirely lost
signt of in the mad thirst for official
preferment, and judging by the course
of political aspirants, we might be set
down as a nation of Jesuits endorsing
the damnable heresy, that the end jus¬
tifies the means.
When will the true manhood of our
country arouse itself to the apprecia¬
tion of our danger and assert its maj¬
esty by driving these traders in hu¬
man liberty from the temple o^ free¬
dom and .restoring to us and our child¬
ren the priceless boon of national lib¬
erty bequeathed to us by our revolu¬
tionary sires?
Keep your flag flying, hold your ban¬
ner aloft that we may be inspired by
your lofty heroism and undying love
of truth.—John H.,Traylor, in Dalton

CAUGHT IN AN EXPLOSION.
A Miner’s Description of His Feel¬
ings When He Was Ulonn Up.
A miner who was blown up while
blasting a rock describes his sensations
thus:
“You see, it’s so sudden. It’s over
just about the time you begin to under¬
stand that something is happening.
You know. I had th* cartridge in my
hand and put it down. Then I got
afraid of it. All at once everything
was light. I don’t think I saw the
flash. Anyway my face was not ex¬
actly toward the explosion.
“But then everything got light, lighter
than day—k,nd of blinding. There was
an awful crash. It was just at the
same time. 1 was terrified and wanted
to get away. It was just as if I was
having the nightmare, Somehow,
though. I knew just what the matter
was. A man can think faster than he
has any idea of. I knew that some of
the others were nearer the explosion,
and I said to myself, ‘They’re blown in
bits, that’s certain.’
“You understand, this was all in a
second—all at once, really. Then it was
exactly the same as if I had been hit
with a stick. I thought it was a big
stick, bigger than any man could swing,
and that it must be worked by ma¬
chinery. It bit me on the head and all
over. I went sailing into the air a long,
long way. My ears roared, and the wind
blew into my face. I knew when 1
struck the ground, for I remember say¬
ing to myself, ‘Well, I’m done for.’
“I don’t know just when l lost my
right senses or when they came back,
but when they did come back it seemed
queer that I was there still. I thought
I had been thrown somewhere else. I
could feel fire burning me. It was my
clothes. They were smoking and al¬
most blazing. I was bruised all over
and could not hear very well. My
voice sounded as though somebody else
were talking. That’s all I can tell you
about it.”
Makins the Blind See.
Success it desperate eases by con-
servative treatment is the lesson often
repeated and yet never quite sufficient-
ly learned by any physician or surgeon.
The infinite ingenuity behind the heal-
ing processes, the never renounced
struggle toward normality, is an ever
renewed source of wonder. All that is
needl'd to elicit it is confidence in it.
delay in doing anything radical, watch-
fulness to follow up the hints to action
as they begin to show themselves.
We know of a living and happy pa¬
tient who ten years ago had albuminu¬
ric retinitis from long existing Bright’s
disease despite what all the textbooks
say as to “two years" in such eases.
“Don’t do the irrevocable thing until
forced to do it” is the warning that
has saved many organs and lives.
Above all, never proceed with surgery
(“the despair of medicine”) until physi¬
ologic and medical methods have been
exhausted.
The Wiener Klinischer Woehensehrlft
tells of the success of Herr Heller, di¬
rector of an asylum for the blind, in
educating the remnant of visual power
retained by a “blind" child. There was
only perception of light in a narrowed
field left, but this by education was
made to yield such indications to the
eager mind that after 14 months of en¬
deavor the boy has very useful vision,
can distinguish colors and forms and
even can read.
There are possibly thousands of blind
people who have renounced vision in¬
stead of cultivating it to a degree that
would render the blind types useless.—

Apple Pie Order.
To feel in apple pie order is a phrase
which dates back to Puritan times—to
a certain Hepzibab Merton. It seems
that every Saturday she was accus¬
tomed to bake two or three dozen ap¬
ple pies, which were to last her family
through the coming week. These she
placed carefully on her pautry shelves,
labeled for each day of the week, so
that Tuesday’s pies might not be con¬
fused with Thursday’s nor those pre¬
sumably large or intended for washing
aud sweeping days eaten when house¬
hold labors were lighter. Aunt Hep-
zibab’s “apple pie order" was known
throughout the entire settlement and
originated the well known saying.

Too much housework wrecks wo¬
men’s nerves. And the constant
caroof children, day and night, is
often too trying for even a strong
woman. A haggard face tells the
story of the overworked housewife
and mother. Deranged menses,
leucorrhcea and falling of the
womb result from overwork.
Every housewife needs a remedy
to regulate her menses and to
keep her sensitive female organs
in perfect condition.
