An Untimely “Boom”
Squelched.
- ■—
( 4«gu««i Evening Nev ■ ]
Tin- promt, generally throughout the
HtnUi, in *|*-riking out very plainly
on the subject ot the Gubernatorial
campaign. The Home (Courier alway a
honest, eoea fit to remark that for
aome time |MUit there have bean
intimation* that certniff parties coi •
tern plated availing themaelvea of the
occasion of the unveiling ofthestatue
tn Senator Hill, the visit of Jefferaon
Davis, and the gathering of Confede
rate soldier* in Atlanta, to "boom" a
political movement. Notwithstanding
the repetition of such rumors, we
could hardly believe that such a
purfHiae was entertained, or if en
tertained, that it could be carried out.
It was eo manifestly impro|>er and
reprehenaible that we did not think
the good sense of the people would
permit it. We are glad to know that
there was no such demonstration, and
that the only attempt to get up one
(a report of which w« copy from the
Constitution) was a failure That
attempt was made in behalf of General
Cordon a gentleman in direct
antagonism with Mr. Hill upon ques
tions of State politics. \te can ap
preciate the feeling of delicacy which
constrained Gen. Gordon to withhold
hia sanction from such a movement
at that time and under eiiating cir
cumstances. It would have been a
flagrant perversion of the proper ob
ject of the occasion and an imposition
on the )>eoplo who had been congre
gated for quite a different pur| o«.
It must also have been painful to Mr.
Davis, who went to Atlanta solely to
pay a tribute to the memory of hia
dead friend, to witness the preversion
of the assembly which his presence
hud attracted into a gathering so- the
promotion of the (silitical aspirations
of men who antagonized Mr. Hill
while he lived, and whose combina
tions for ruling the State would have
found in him a stu.dy oppouci tis
still in life
In this connection we deem it ap
propriate to reproduce Mr. Hills
estimate of the efforts of politicians to
boost tlieir favorites into places by a
"hip ami hurrah" over their services
in very dissimilar field*. We make
an extract from his address before
the Southern Historical Society at
Atlanta, delivered February 18th,
1874:
"\V« must elevate the atatenianship
of the country. In all republics* an
imbecile statesmanship has succeeded
civil war, and we have not escaped
the scourge. In order to elevate our
statesmanship, two things, in my
opinion, are indispensable. In the
first place, our people must abandon
the insane habit of placing men in
high civil positions suuply because of
their military talents or success.
General lx*e was right. It is contrary
to the very genius mid safety of re
publican institutions, to place their
civil administration in the keeping of
men of military aptitude and training
Brave fighting is no evidence of able
statesmanship. It is usually evidence
of the very contrary. Otherwise,
Captain Jack was the foremort states
man of this age, and, instead of lieing
hanged, ought to have been made
President or Senator for life. If this
habit shall not cease, we shall not
have a civil siatesimm for President
this generation, lu Congress, too,
Wt have generals, mid colonels, and
captain*, and lieutenant*, sufficient to
make a small army, and scarcely
statesmen enough to form a good
committee."

The country is flooded with bogus
medicine men, ami in a few cases a
heavy capital is all they have to sus
tain their prestige. Numerous cleverly

agony while the public were reading
of their remarkable recovery.
Another serious offense In the pub
lication of erroneous statements con
cerning various drugs, such as are
daily prescribed by our’best' phys
icians, declaring them to be deadly
poisons. Lslide of potash, which
i eems to receive their greatest con
demnation, when prescribed by
physicians and in the projier combi
nation with certain compounds, is
not only harmless, but forms one of
the most powerful antagonists to
blood poison known to the medical
world B. B B. (Botanic Blood

genuine certificates from persons who

question now is, if iodide of potash is
