Col. A. A. Murphy, of Barues

Col. Murphey is u strong and influ
*enti«l Populist in his district, and
will oppose the Democratic nominee
for congress from his district this
year.—Cordeie Herald.
We hope the geutlemun will de
cide to run for there is imt a man

pleasure m vutitn- against.
Says the Telfair enterprise: “Per
Sons visiting in Macon lvotn Monroe
county, the home of Hon, R L. Let'
her, express themselves as Certain
that Mr. Berner will run for congress
this year against Hon. C E Bartlett,
the present incumbent, and in the
fiveuf of slid; a contest that Mr. Ber
ner wilt challenge Mr. Bartlett to a
joint debate on the stump throughout
tho district. It goes without saying
that Mr. Bartlett will accept such a
challenge, for ho is au aggressive
fighter. There are ten counties in
the district, with twenty-six votes,
therefv'ro it will requite, thirteen
voles and the fraction of a vote to
nominate.”
We believe Boh Berner has too
much sense to be pushed headlong
iu the race against Judge Bartlett.

Candler’s Letter
The following is the letter writ
ten in- Alien D Candler to Max
Meyhurdt of Rome:
“Without; any solicitation on my part
I find myself a candidate for the demo
cratic nomimiation for governor of Geor
gia. The men who are behind the move
ment are not the professional politicians,
‘the men who control,’ but the rank and
file of our party, the great middle class
who pay the taxes and hear the burdens
of governrnment, I have never seen
such an uprising of the common people
in my life.
"It is a rebellion against the men and
their methods who ravished the demo
cratic party in 1894, aud have dominated
ever since, the men who by methods pe.
GUlhw to themselves deprived Gen. Evans
of the nomination after he had won it,
“1 was against them and their methods
then and they are against me now.
therefoie stood feel at liberty to call on those
who with mo by Gen. Evans In the
contest to stand by mo now. We fought
them in the same phalanx for pure de
mocracy and clean methods with Gen.
Evans as our leader. Now that the same
battling ilag has been put did into us hand aud 1 am
as lie for tne same princi
ples, that I invoke all that the support for myself time.
we gave general at that
'Ihen by political trickery we lost, now
by united action and honest methods wo
will win. We are right and the people
are with us.
Many who were with the tricksters and
traders then, disgusted with their meth
ods are with us now. Let us therefore
lie vigilant and active, and we will in
October bury them and their nefarious
methods so deep that the hand of resur
roo ion will never reach ihein.
Sincerely yours,
"Allf-.n D. Canui.kh.”
The letter of Col. Candler applies
to tricksters and traders only.

The rare success which attends
surgical operation for appendicitis
hasted to a discussion, and a rather
warm one among New York doctorsak
to whether the treatment ot tins uf*
ihetion should not be transferred
from the realm of surgery to that of
medicine.
Dr. M. C. Tony, au eminent phy
sician and surgeon general ot the
Now York National, is u strong ad
vocate Ot easlor oil aud sweet oil as a
remedy lor anuendicitis. Ho says:
“Evolution is all right, but we
have noted no great changes in the
appendix ot man; therefore we be'
lieve the Creator left it there, not tor
the knife of the surgeon, but lor
some purpose.”
The Medical Times gives Dr. Ter
ry’s treatment of append.citis:
“At first cathartics ot castor oil
and sweet oil followed by hot water
are given, until the bowels are thor
oughly cleaned out. This treatment
is folio wed by enemas of glycerine
and sweet oil. Flaxseed poultices
soaked m sweeet oil are kept on the
abdomen. The diet is restricted to
very Itght, easily digested foods.
The oil treatment removes the friction
ot the inflamed tissues and relaxes
them during resolution. In tins way
lie says, he has cured cases ot ehrous
rt , c „ rren t appendicitis. To pre
vent a return ot tbe trouble after tbe
original treatment, he prescribes a
titolespoonful ofsweetoil, folioiveu by
a glass of hut water, before each meat
for several weeks,”
A number of New York surgeons
have attacked l)r. Terry rather sav'
agely it seems to us but ho has his
stout defenders also.
Dr. Terry says lie judges his treat
ments by its results; that be has
tried it on fifty one persons who suf
fered front appendicitis and that for
ty-nine ot them hive recovered.
