AMERICUS, GA., NOV. 11. 1800
No matter what did it, it is done.
The gold men will say silver did it.
Aren’t there lots and oodles of “I
told yon so’s” ?
Mr. Bryan wants to know how" bad it
all is before he speaks.
Now let us enjoy that prosperity
and the full dinner pail.
We can all stand on the prosperity
platform, if the prosperity is genuine.
If the republicans are right, and, as
David Crockett would say, know they
are right, then go ahead.
It is dollars to doughnuts that when
the Senate meets after March 4th next
that Tillman and his pitchfork will en
gage m some lively scrimmages with
Teddy and his teeth.
The Augusta Chronicle rises to re
mark that “Bryan has gone to join the
distinguished triumvirate of orators
who never reach the presidency—Web
ster, Clay an Calhoun. ”d
It appears that in the wreck caused
by the Republican land slide the Dem
ocrats have managed to get away with
two United States Senators from Mon
tana, two from Delaware and one - from
Colorado.
Japan is rapidly becoming one of the
most enlightened nations of the earth.
A wealthy citizen of that country has
just ordered a complete American
brewing plant shipped to him and set
up for immediate operation.
Senator Pettigrew talks of a new par
ty, which maybe called the “social la
bor” party. It is to such a party that
Pettigrew ought to belong. He is an
exemplification of the old adage “a lit
tle learning is a dangerous thing.” He
is a radical, a fanatic and is seemingly
ignorant of the principles upon which
a stable and just government is based.
Richard Croker is quoted as saying:
“No power on earth—nothing but
death—can prevent Mr. Bryan from re
maining the natural leader of the peo
ple. Mr. Bryan will certainly be the
leader of the Democratic party for
years to come if he lives. He possess
es the elements of the leader and his
party has confidence in him, no matter
if he is defeated. Defeat cannot shake
that confidence.
The drift toward the cites is the pro
duct in some degree, at least, of the
old desire to give as little as possible
of hard labor to work of accumulating
_ to approach as near as
may be to the base ideal of living as
near as one can without work. The
real misery and unhappiness attending
daily life—not the imaginary or exag
gerated forms of discontent—are found
in the cities, Today, as forever, in
America, as elsewhere, the man is best
and happiest who can make a liv
ing for himself and his family from the
“LEAVE IT TO Tfffc FAITHFUL ”
Benatoi-A. O. Bacon, in a dictated
interview to the Atlanta Daily News,
has this to say in regard to the pro
posed reorganization of the democratic
party:
“I believe in reorganization when
ever necessary; but it should always
originate with the faithful friends of
the party. Without specifying the
name of any one, I don’t think that de
serters from the party should be
quite so eager to take charge of its af
fairs when arranging for the conflict
which is so certainly upon us. We
didn’t have the benefit of their assist
ance when we faced the enemy; and
when we arrange our lines for another
battle, while we shall be glad to have
the rank and file back without dis
crimination these prominent deserters
will only be allowed to take very ob
scure positions m the rear ranks.”

grateful ?

THE CUBAN CONVENTION.
The work of the Cuban constitution
al convention, which met in Havana
Monday, will be followed with much
interest. The majority of the dele
gates favor absolute independence, bat
as the work of the convention is subject
to the approval of Congress, and since
Congress, although p’edged to give
Cuba independence, is also pledged to
establish a safe and orderly govern
ment in Cuba, there is some doubt
whether independence will be insisted
on by the covention at this time
It is thought the convention will be
of long duration, for as one familiar
with Cuban affairs expresses P, “The
contests over seats by several delega
tes will not be the easiest problem for
solution. Each delegate must have his
say,yon know,and only those acquaint
ed with the Southern love for public
declamation can have any conception
of how much time each delegate will
take. Their heads are nearer the sun
than yours of the North. ”
It is generally believed the manner
of government framed will be pattern
ed aftertbat of the United States,and it
may be the convention will ask the
United States to continue her protect
orate over this island in order to guard
Cuba’s foreign relations and preserve
peace in the interior.
NEW USE FOR COTTON
The invention of a process by which
cotton seed hulls may be converted into
superior paper furnishes a quick and
prime market for this part of the plant,
equal to that which exists for the lint.
The inventor, Mr. R. Thomas, now
living in New York, writes a letter to
Colonel William A. Hemphill, in which
he recalls himself as a former Atlantian,
who is still well remembered. He has
passed through the experimental stages
of his process, and now, fortified by
ample capital which he had no difficulty
in securing, he is about to erect mills,
the first one of which he promises to
Atlanta.
This invention surpasses the usual
discovery of skill, because it enhances
with great value the cotton plant, which
already commands so large a share of
the commercial world. Paper is one of
thequickest articles of merchandise,be
ing consumed as soon as made, and
commanding heavy prices. The fact
that the cotton seed hull can be applied
to this purpose gives it a market of in
stant purchase.
FALLING STARS.
It will be remembered that it was
predicted this time last year that we
would witness a meteoric shower “or
falling stars” in the month of Novem
ber. But the prediction was not ful
filled. The “stars” didn’t fall, and it
is now said that a mistake of twelve
months was made in the prediction of
last year but that the shower will cer
tainly come m this, the present month
of November. We shall see.
Prosperity is promised but it is not
going to continue if the south lays
down and goes to sleep. Det our peo
ple go to work and establish indus
tries, among which should be cotton
mills.

the blood is
polluted and the system thoroughly con
taminated by this deadly virulent poison.
Then a sore or ulcer appears on some
part of the body; it may be small and
harmless looking at first, but as the can
cerous cells form and are deposited by
the blood near the sore, it increases in
size and severity, with sharp shooting
pains. No matter how often the sore is
removed by the surgeon’s knife or flesh
destroying plasters, another comes and is
worse. The real disease is in the blood,
and the treatment must begin there. The
poisoned blood must tie invigorated and
purified, and when this is done cancerous
cells can no longer form and the sore will
heal naturally and permanently.
Mrs. Sarah M. Keesling,
041 Windsor Ave., Bristol, -
Tenn., writes: “I am z,i
years old, an! for three
years had suffered with a
severe form of Cancer on
my jaw, which the doctors
said was incurable, and
that I could not live more
than six months. I accept- /
ed their statement as true, 7
and had given up all hope '1
of ever being well again,
when my druggist, knowAg
ingof my condition.recom- tj
mended S. S. S. After tak- f
ing a few bottles the sore
began to heal, to the surprise of the physicians,
and in a short time made a complete cure. I have
gained in flesh, my appetite is splendid, sleep is
refreshing—in fact, am enjoying perfect health.’'

' structive poison and

Five Years For Killing Wife.
Raleigh, Nov. 10.—A negro convict,
Edward Hill, was put in the peniten
tiary here to serve five years for killing
his wife. His defense was that she was
trying to run away. He pursued and
caught her. There was a struggle, she
fell, and he fell urwn her, breaking her
spine. The sheriff, who brought Hill
here from Tyrell county, says there are
grounds for believing his statement true
and that public sentiment is in his favor.

CATARRH
The Mother of Consumption.
How this Dread Disease May be Prevented and
Cured—The Greatest of Specialists Writes
on the Subject.
Catarrh Is the mother of consumption.
By this I do not mean that every case of catarrh Jo
velopes into consumption, but I
fdo mean that catarrh when un
checked, and when given the
proper opportunities for exten
sion from its place of beginning,
which is the nasal passages,
deeper and deeper along the
breathing tract, invariably ends
In Consumption of the Lungs.
Catarrh seldom destroys any
considerable part of the mucous
surface of the upper air pass
ages; it inflames and congests
them, causing usually a super
abundant and offensive dis
charge • but when ft reaches the intensely delicate
linmguif the hair-like lung tubes and little lung _celiß,
the inflamation and congestion which it causes,
closes these small air passages and, allowing the
putrid discharged matter to a rot
ting away of the membrane, resulting in what we
call Consumption of the Lungs.
THE TENDENCY OF CATARRH.
The tendency of catarrh, when It has once obtained
a foothold in any portion of the mucous membrane
which lines every cavity of the body, is to constantly
extend i n every direction.
Catarrh in almost every Instance starts with what is
commonly known as cola In the bead. This cold is
added to by another, because of some extra exposure
or weakening of the system and becomes chronic.
Nasal catarrh is the result. Unless a radical cure of
this condition is effected, the disease passes rapidly
to the throat, to the bronchial tubes, and then to the
lung8 ‘ NEW LUNGS.
Consumption cannot be cured. New lungs cannot
be made for a man any more than new fingers or a
new nose; but catarrh can be curedin all its stages
except this Anal and always fatal one.
A CERTAIN CURE.
In an experience of twenty years, during which
time I have treated many thousands of cases of all
forms of catarrh, I have never yet failed to effect a
radical and permanent cure. The method I employ
is one exclusively mv own, and the remedies which I
use are prepared under my personal direction in my
own laboratories. . „ .. .
Many people imagine they have Consumption when
in realitv the disease has not quite reached that
stage. l am treating and curing cases of this sort
every dav. So long as the process of decay has not
begun in the lungs themselves, lean make the patient
perfectly well and strong again.
BEGIN AT ONCE.
Let me once more urge all catarrhal sufferers to
begin treatment at once, for a month of treatment
now is better than the three months later on.
I shall make for the next month a specially low fee
for the treatment of catarrh not complicated by
other diseases, making no extra charge tor all med
icines, etc., that may be required.
