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. £fo, Mr. Editor, instead of selling the state road let ns adopt the policy of "Don’t Give Up the Ship.” BUCHANAN, GA, FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 13, 190I. a statesman instead of the sordid sug¬ gestion of the wily politician, and wipe the foul blot of the convict lease system from the state’s escutcheon by putting al' convicts, long and short term, white ami black, in the service of the state extending the state road from Atlanta to Savannah, as was sug¬ gested by Judge Hines a few years ago. road 2 Talk about selling the state for twelve millions to be squandered by politicians to krep themselves in pow¬ er! No, sir! The idea is simply a per- Bonification of absurdity • p Col Peek said the democrats had taken all the populist platform except a free ballot and a fair count, and he can now add that they have taken all the thirst for office of which they have been accusing the populists and have Parted a campaign for governor 18 monU)a ahPad „f tune, If Mr. Guerry comes to Dalton please tell him for me that Joe Terrel is sixteen years ahead of him, having made himself solid with the whiskey men in 1884 pending the tussel over ^ Northen, and Joe has been very care- ful not to lose their good opinion, and When the nominating convention meets Mr. Guerry will not be known. Mr. Guerry had as well learn that the Methodist-church is a power in Geor- gia, and that Bishop Candler is a pow- er in the Methodist church, and he came out squarely for local option and the church fell into line and the whis key contingent has endorsed local op¬ tion and Mr. Guerry will find these combined influences omnipotent in Georgia, that I need hardly remind you the Methodistchurch is u y church and that Bishop Candler is my bishop and i b > the card You remember that Judge Hines was elected and it required two weeks to count him out, but still my bishop Of my church sustain the party of lo¬ cal option, while Atlanta, Augusta. Savannah, Macon, Rome and Colum¬ bus, the strongholds of whisky, chim¬ ed into the chorus “me, too bishop.” Extremes meet and politics make strange bedfellows. 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 Herald.

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.— American Medicine. 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. A Financial Discussion. Chronic Borrower—Can you lend me $20 for a few days? Weary Friend—Why don’t you pawn your watch? “Because it is a keepsake from my dear mother, and I don’t like to part with it.” “My money is a keepsake from my dear father, and I don’t like to part with it, either.”—Exchange.

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. WINS" CARDUI is doing this for thousands of American women to-day. It. cured Mrs. Jones and that is why she writes this frank letter: Glondeane, Ky., Feb. W, 1901 . I am so glad that, yonr Wine of Cardui is helping me. I am feeling I better than X have felt for years. am doing mv ov.-n work without any help, and I washed last week and was not one- bit tired. That shows that the Wine i» doing me good, before, t am getting and fleshier than X ever was sleep good and eat hearty. Before I began taking Wine of Cardui, I used to have to lay down five or six times every day, but now I do not think of lying down through the day. Mrs. Richard Joses. *1.00 AT DRUGGISTS.
