The Hon. AHenCandler is loom
ing up in great sh ape as a gubern
atoral canditate, observes the Ma
con News.
The Harmony Grove Echo runs
up to its masthead the name of
Allen I) .Candler, of Hall, for ths
governorship.
“This is my busy day” is the
sign now hung up at Santa Claus’
private officr, and it will remain
there until the agony is over.

It is said that there are but three
survivors of the war of 1812, yet
3,000 widows of soldiers of that
war are drawing pensions from the
government.
The Savannah coons will have
to be taught a lesson —and that
lesson is that this is a white man’s
country —McKinley, Hanna Co.
to 'he contrary.
Has Gomez been cornered by
Pando? Has Pando been killed by
the Cubans? Is Mr. Gomez ready
to give up or is he on the point of
marching on Havana?
Atlanta is alright,-she has crept
into North Georgia and will riuht
ably illustrate this sec'ion on the
Prison Commission. Here’s to
G’neral ETans. May his shadow
never grow less.
The Hustler Os Rome suggests
that if be desired to cut the cotton
crop there should be a convention
of supply and guano men, they
hold the key to the situa'ion. Not
so Very far wrong either.—Amer
icus Herald.

“Those members of Georgia’s
“olde't ai.d best families” who
go to the social gatherings with
s de strapped to them, exhibit to

civiliz°n in the vicinty of Macon.
—Birmingham Age-Herald.
Douglass Glessner, secretary to
the new Penitentiary Commission,
has ever proven hsms«if a true
man. The Hustler of Rome con
gratu'atee Mr. Glessner, congratu
lates the Commission and congrat
ulates the people on this apg Hut
ment.
=
In re-electing Jake C. Moore, of
Floyd, to the office of Inspector,
the Penitentiary Commission did
eminently the proper thing, Mr.
Moor? has made a model officer
and will prove one of the new
Commissioner’s most able lieuten
ants. Mhe Hustler of Rome I >ves
fair play and is pleased to see that
the Commission begins its great
work by doing a Roman justice.
Hoke Smi'h and Allen Candler
will speak in Gainesville on Dec.
29th Is this the beginning of the
gubernatorial and senatorial caln
paign of 1898? asks the Savannah
Press.
The Hustler Os Rome dont
know about that but we do know
that Mr. Smith couldn’t get into
pursr democratic company.
“The only thing that, makes me
tired,” remarked the injured man
as he was lifted off the stretcher
and carefully p'aced in a hospital
bed, “is that the pesky machine
ran me down was au 1897 model.
Now, had it been one of those
chainless’' —Then he lapsed into
unconsciousness. —Cincinnati.
The latest is a milk trust that
has recently been furmed in India
na. Tis said that at the monthly
meeting of theg* nilem- n intersted
in are op
ened with prayer and JlnU singoj'.-
of the hymn.
- '’Shall we gather at the River?”
WH AT OUGIIT WE TO PA YING ?
We are paying $1 41,000,C00 a
year for pensions—$2. per capita,
or about |lO per taxpayer, says
the New York WorldrAVbat ought
we to be paying? After the pension
appropriation increased steadily
until it reached, in 1871,183, 077,-
383.
This was undoubtedly the out
side limit of honesty and patriotic
duty. From 1871 the pension ap
propriation steadily • declined as
the old soldiers died of w 'in ds or
disease contracted in the war un’il
in 1878 it had fa len to $26,844.-
415.
The rate of decline was about a
million dollars a year. Suppose it
had I-epi steadily on at only ha f
that ra'e.The pension appriation
this year would be about sl7 500 •
000!
Not only would be.but should be!
That sum would give a comfert
able living to every hem st and
needy old soldier who now has to
tike his chances in a shameful
scramble with a horid of sturdy
mendicants.
What a scandal! What a fraud !
Th* Waycross Herald is becom
ing desperate. It says: “If free
silver will relieve the financial
situation and give us a little pros
per, ty let us have it. If we can’t
have free silver let us have free
copper. Let u? have anything that
will lighten the br den of the
manses.”
A GREWSOME ENTERPRISE.
At the execution of William
Carr at Liberty, Mo., for the mur
der of his ittle 3-year-old daugh
ter a photographer was allowed
within the inclosure where the
hanging took place and suc
ceeded in taking 18,000 cinema
tograph photographs of the
closing incidents jf the
mUrdvres’s life, culminating
in the hanging itself.
The News reports tell us that
the cinematopraph machine “ was
in operation from the nioarent
Carr appeared in the inclosure un
til the body w r ae cut down .” Pre
vious so ibis, the same parties di
recting the photographing sf the
scenes of the execution had Visit
ed the prisoner in the Kansas
City Jaii and persuaded him to re
ci’e his story of the murder into
a phonograph.
It is said to be the intention of
these parties to exhibit the cine
matogiaph piciures throughout
the country, with the phonograph
reproduction of the 'murderer's
own ztory of how Le killed his
child as an additional lea lire of
their “attraction.” The ciime
was peculiarly revolting and
he.ntr nding. It is upon this that
t e owners of the cinenatograph
confession doubtless count for
the drawing ot large crowds to
wi'.ne's their grewsome exhibi
tion.
Not fjr a moment should there
be any question as to the action
of the authorities of any city or
town where such an exhibi ion
may be attempted. They sh uld
be promptly convinced that such

'-St;-, her great
force of de
tective rente
dioa has one that will eventually hunt down
and anest that paiticular disease.
Lung and bronchial diseases are among
the most baffling complaints which doctors
have to deal with; because if isn’t the lungs
or bronchial tubes alone which are affected,
but every corner of the system furnishes a
lurking place for these elusive maladies.
They change and reappear and dodge
about the system under numberless dis
guises. They are almost always cotnpli
cated with liver or stomach troubles, nerv
ousness, neuralgia, or “general debility.”
The best detective remedy which Nature
has provided to search out and arrest these
perplexing ailments is Dr. Pierce’s Golden
Medical Discovery. It lays an arresting
hand directly upon the poisonous, paralyz
ing elements hiding in the liver and diges
tive organs.
It gives the blood-making glands power
to manufacture an abundant supply of pure
red, highly vitalized blood which reinforces
the lungs with healthy tissue ; feeds the
nerve ■ centres with power, and builds up
solid muscular flesh and active energy.
For weak lungs, spitting of blood, shortness
of breath, nasal catarrh, bronchitis, severe
coughs, asthma, and kindred affections, it
is a sovereign remedy. While it promptly
cures the severest cough it strengthens
the system and puiihes the blood.

civilization. Their “show” should
not be allowed to open its doors.
The conception of such a form

ghoulish, the carrying of it into

humanity. It is to be hoped
that the manipulators of the pho

BRITISH INDIAN DISASTER.
Tne English Army under Gen
eral Lockhart in the hills of North
eru India has just ended a cam
paign that has been marked
throughout with failure and clos
ed with disaster. General West
m icott’s brigade hao .net with a re
v- r e which leave ihu army help
ess tu sit until strongly rei (.forced
and teru.Liates for the wintor ail
offensive operations.
The war is only nine month’s
o d and it has already cost the
India G vernment £6,000,000.
And India not being able to pay
it has had to appeal to the heme
government. Nothing will be socer
tain to make the war unpopular
as having to pay ior it.
While Egypt and the Cape
Government bore the expenses
against th* Zulus, the Boere and
the Mahdi and England reaped
the g'ory, the English people with
u animons voice declared for a
prosecution of .he campaigns,
bu' when the c*’st began to appear
in the imperial budget a great
hope of p-ace pervaded the na
tion. Such is likely enough to be
the result now.
It seems very hard for England
to learn not to despise her petty
enemies. She received one lesson
from the Zulus, another from tbe
Boers a third in Soudan and a
forth has just been administered
to leaders who has experiences in
ths other three.
Her army is made up of boys
whose lack of physical endurance
is balanced in some degree by the
effectiveness of the arms as di
rected against iliequipped ene
mies bat which will scarcely
s rve her hop*-s against a modern
force If this lesson teaches her
something that will reform her
methods it will not however, be
100 dearly bousrht.
Are The Finets.—The lady
who wan’s to bestow a present
that will be largely appreciated
cant do better than to secure for
her father, brother, husband, or
best fellow a box of Waters fa
