Easy Pill T
Easy to take and easy to act is
that famous little pill DeWitt’s
Little Early Risers. This is due to
the fact that they tonic the liver in¬
stead of purging it. They never gripe
nor sicken, not even the most delicate
lady, and yet they are so certain in
results that no one who uses them is
disappointed. They cure torpid liver,
constipation, biliousness, jaundice,
headache, malaria and ward off pneu¬
monia and fevers.

Representative Rainey’s Libel
Bill.
From the Augusta Chronicle.
The House bill introduced by
Representative Rainey, of Ter¬
rell county, looking to the estab¬
lishment o 1 more liberal libel
laws in the State of Georgia, is
one that must of necessity re¬
commend itself to the equitahle
minded.
The wording of the measure in
full is to the following effect:
A Bill, To be entitled, “An Act
to amend Section 2075 of the
Code of the State of Georgia of
18$2, to limit recovery for libel to
actual damages in certain cases,
to define actual damages in cer¬
tain cases, and for other pur¬
poses.
Section 1.—Be it enacted by
the General Assembly of the
State of Georgia, and it is hereby
enacted by the authority of the
same, that before any suit is
brought for the publication of li¬
bel, in any newspaper in this
State, the aggrieved party shall,
at least three days before filling
or serving the complaint in such
suit, serve notice in writing ou
the publisher or publishers of
said newspaper, at their princi¬
pal office of publication, specify¬
ing the statements in the article,
or articles which ha or they al¬
leged to be false and defamatory.
If it shall appear in the trial of
the said action that the said arti¬
cle was published in good faith,
that its falsity was due to mis¬
take or misapprehension of the
facts, and that a full am 1 fair re¬
traction of any statement therein
alleged to be eroneous was pub¬
lished in the next regular issue
of slid newspaper, or within
three days after receipt of said
w ritten notice as above provided,
then the plaintiff in such case
shall recover only actual damages.
Section 2.—The words "actual
damages’" in the foregoing sec¬
tion shall be construed to include
all the damages that the plaintiff
may show he has suffered in re¬
spect to his property, business,
trade, profession or occupation,
and no other damages whatever.
Section 3. Be it further enact¬
ed that all laws and parts of laws
in conflict with this act be, and
the same are hereby repealed.
The justice and wisdom in the
legislation proposed in the fore¬
going is at once apparent when
One reflects upon what an indefi¬
nite, illusive thing libel is, after
all, and bow exceedingly difficult
it is to deal with it save from an
equitable, rather than a legal,
point of view.*
Newspapers are indeed mere¬
ly servants of the reading public,
caterers to their patrons, their
subscribers, every one of whom
demands all the news, a full and
free account of the day’s doings,
from the most momentous hap¬
penings down to the minutest
social gossip—about every one
but themselves.
This compendium of events fil¬
ters its way, so to speak, through
so many various channels to the
central dispensary of the paper,
that it is not remarkable that
even with the most conscientious
publishers mistakes sometimes
occur.
As a matter of fact, nine hun¬
dred aDd ninefcy-nir.e out of ev¬
ery one thousand papers are con¬
scientious and strive to the ut¬
most to keep everything but
what is admissable and true out
of their columns. It is a part of
their stock-in-trade to do so, as
much as his credit is a part of a
merchant’s assets.
Having done their best then—
j bringing a trained intelligence to
j la bear upon the effort to do no man
wilful wrong, it is only fair
that when through some- mishr
a fancied or actual offense hi
been given, they should be allot
ed to explain and apologize an
mulcted only in such damages a
may have actually accrued.
We think this will be patent t
all right-thinking men, and tea
Mr. Rainey’s bill will find favo
with his fellow legislators.

To the Camilla Enterprise:
Your correspondent has just
received the sad tidings of the un
timely death of his friend ITarrv
Powell, aid begs leave to drop
the sincere tear of sorrow over
his coffin, and place a sprig of
evergreen over his grave. He
knew Harry from his earliest
childhood as a kind hearted, man¬
ly boy and a lordly young man.
He here records that since the
deceased was admitted to the bar
his daily deportment has been
under the eye of the writer and
was such as to deserve universal
respect : and that as a lawyer his
conduct was an honor to the pro¬
fession. The more w« knew Har¬
ry Powell the more we admired
and loved him. His esteemed
kindred and large circle of
mourning friends have the
found sympathy of one who
them all. J. L. Uneerwood.
The Death Penalty.
A little thing sometimes results
in death. Thus a mere scratch,
insignificant cuts or puny boils
hove paid the death penalty. It
is wise to have Bucklen’s Arnica
Salve ever handy. It’s the best
Salve on earth and will prevent
fatality, when Burns, Sores, Ul¬
cers and Piles threaten. Only

flatters itself thus; “Ourorlet
