The notable feature of the busi- situation is the sterdy ad vance of prices, indicating incieas od demand and a renewal of nor mal businefS activities in the face di the uncertainty of the election, saiystheSt. Louis Republic. This is the answer of the Amer icau people to the vociferous who are proclaiming calamity from the stump. It shows the calm confidence of the ‘people in the future and in their ability to work out their salvation under the blessings of law and pop kul'ar sovereignty. V The Republic believes that the country will be the better under ttje supremacy of the Democratic party. We fed sure that the fcma rity of the American ar* ••t the same opinion, and wi I re cord this opini.>n at the polls.

The comfort the. opponents,.pf Democracy are trying’to extrsC' uut of the qlec'ioi.s in Georgia and Florida is of the coides? kiijd. In Florida the contest was Re tween the Democrats and the Pop ulists, and granting that the lu-s in the Democratic vote represents the gold defection, the result shows conclusively that the Dem* qcrats have nothing tc fear In the November election the Democrats and their opponents in >his elec tion wi Ibe togetbf',. a;ud if the Republicanscan votes in the Democratic loss to defeat the combined votes of the Demo crats and Popu ists, or even to defeat the . Democrats, they are welcome to them. But it is certain that part of the loss of the Demoura’s was due to a feeling that it was use less to go to the polls. In the contest between Democrats and Populists the Deuv cra s were sure of success. The Georgia returns hold out glo »mier prospects for the Rept.b l:cans. Against the combined opposition of Republic ns and Populists the D modrate have won a notable victory. The Democratic majority over that of two years | ago has been increased by about, I’o,ooo. 7 here is abundance of inargin between this majority and the normal Democratic de fictions When the Populist vo < has be-; m added to the Democratic vot- the Republicans and Bolto crats will -be snowed under. The results in Georgia and Florida merely emphasize the statement bf Senator .lores that the South >inil v\ es't are solid for Bryan. ' I,l r ■■ ■■- CURGENT TOPICS.

It is supposed to be based on a thorough knowl edge of the relations between Bry an and Stone, and an admission which apparantly comes from the Governor in a roundabout fash ion.” The body of Daniel Murphy was found by relatives on a dissecting table in a New York medical col lege, and steps were taken to se cure SIOOO for which Murphy was i insured. » THE HUSTLER OF ROME TUESDAY OCTOBER 13. 1896. \\^9/^ l, wEye . ■ ....«■ —, ■■■■■ i in ■> Yesterday’s Chattamfogo says: “President Crain, of tj'e IVyuu club, has extended an/ ’’invitation loTlov, Atkins n, of Georgia and Hon.

When the abscess broke, the pains were terrible, and I thought I should not live through it. I heard and read so much about Hood’s Sarsaparilla, that I decided to take it, and my husband, who was suffering with boils, took it also. It soon purified our Blood built me up and restored my health so that, although the doctor said I would not be able to work hard, I have since done the work for 20 people.
