AMEBJCUS.GA., NOV. 23, 1900.
Tammany’s new role as an up-to
date reformer brings on more talk.
Trying to make militarism take root
in this country is practically seeking to
graft a gun-stock on the tree of liberty.
“What did he do withit all?” Is
’ always the first question asked when
news of a big default is given out. As
Alvord says; “money goes easy.”
Oklahoma’s robust Republicanism
furnishes one of the very many reasons
why that big and progressive Territory
should be admitted to Statehood at the
very earliest possible moment.
The Times-Recorder extends con
gratulations to mayor-elect Felder,
Aidermen Glover, Fort and Cameron.
The city is to be congratulated in the
election of three representative citizens.
Croker is abusing the up-State Dem
ocrats for Bryan’s defeat, and says “all
they want is money.” This, from the
man who testified under oath he was in
politics “for his pocket every time,” is
very much like Satan rebuking sin,
A rural editor, whose name we con
ceal, lest his brethren of the press
should regard him as traveling in the
plutocrat class, emits this "warble:
heart swells up with gratitude
and our voice is choked with emotion,
like a muley cow with a turnip in her
throat. The world is after ail a happy
one, and as we gaze from the window
of our editorial monastery at the sun
kissed landscape, sweet visions of milk
and honey,humming birds and molass
es, brick cheese and ambrosial nectar
dance before our astonished vision like
a calf before a circus procession. Last
Saturday one of our subscribers came
m and paid, in cold cash and in cold,
blood three years’ arrearage and two
years in advance.”
GIVE US A REST.
The country needs a rest from politi
cal agitation. We have had enough of
it to satisfy ns a year at least. We
trust'that the gentlemen who are busy
ing themselves hunting candidates for
Governor will cork up their enthusi
asm and give us a rest. Such chatter
as they are indulging is calculated to
make the country monstrous tired.
REFLECTIONS OF A BACHELOR.
Heaven is like home; it opens after
the other place is shut.
If the devil had eaten the apple him
self, where would we all have been now?
Love is a lot like baby-talk; nobody
understands it but the one that is talk
ing it.
Arwoman s ideas are generally half
her husband’s, half her minister’s, and
the rest her own.
Very few women like to think that
the Lord knows as much about their
husbands as they think they do them
selves.
AMERICAN METHODS
The President of the Grand Trunk
Railway of Canada, Sir Charles Rivers
Wilson, is looking for a general mana
ger for his road, and is reported as
J
saying: “The position of general mana
ger ot-arfr system will go to an experi
enced American railway' man. We have
the greatest admiration for the Ameri-
c an railways and for their methods of
management.”
The methods referred to by Sir
Charles Rivers consist mainly in em
ploying men who are best fitted for the
work. Pull and patronage cut no fig
ure when it comes to securing places
on well-managed American railways.
This is the reason the Canadians come
to them when they want a general
manager for their greatest trunk line.
The American railway man holds his
job because he knows his business.
Would that as much could be said of
our political men, that they hold their
jobs because they know their business.
They do know one business, but too
ofteu it is the business of politics, and
not the business the public pays them
to do.

NO WONDER THEY ARE JEALOUS
The marvelous expansion of Ameri
can commerce is very naturally excit
ing the envy of other nations, and es
pecially of Great Britain and the Ger
man Empire. The French are also
noting the fact with more or less per
turbation, but the French are not man
ufacturers like the Britons and Ger
mans, and they can look upon the
phenomena with less fear and trem
bling.
It seems to be at last dawning upon
the minds of trade competitors that
the time is fast approaching when they
will have to prevent by legislation, if
possible, the inroads which the pro
ducts of American manufacturers are
making into their own dominions and
even into the countries not under their
flags which have heretofore yielded
them much of their commerce.
Despite their efforts, however, noth
ing seems to be able tn withstand the
genius, energy and skill of the Amer
icans. The jealousy of the foreigners
only nerves them to redoubled efforts
to control the markets of the world.
The October bulletin of the United
States Bureau of Statistics tells the
story of what the Americans are doing
in the exportation of the products of
the field and farm so plainly that the
figures are well worthy of reproduction
in this connection.
The exports of breadstuff's for Octo
ber were 821,913,832; of cattle and
hogs, 82,892,351; of provisions, $13,-
934,320; and of mineral oils, $6,129,079.
The cotton exportations, in which the
South is more greatly interested than
in any other one product, totalled 1,-
211,235 bales in October, for which S6O,
391,107 was paid. In order that one
may see what a difference the Cotton
makes to the South, it is necessary to
refer to the export statistics for Octo
ber for the years 1897, 1898, 1899 and
1900. In October, 1897, 1,028,806 bales
of cotton, weighing 520,871,629 pounds,
were sold abroad for $32,291,200. In
the following year the exportations
were 1,136,709 bales weighing 583,873,-
696. Last year only 790,855 bales,
weighing 407,228,905 pounds, were ex
at a cost to the buyers of $28,348,418.
, This year, as shown above, the cotton
exported is only about 75,«XM) bales more
than m 1898, but it has brought the
planters nearly twice as much money.
So, while the foreigners may rage be
-1 cause of the growth of American com
merce and industry, the people at home
can laugh at them and keep on reach
ing out fur new markets,
TWO KILLED; ONE WOUNDED
* Bloody Battle Between Negroes With
Pistols at Columbus.
Columbus, Ga., Nov. 22. Mitchell
Taylor and Charles Comer, both ne
groes, fought a duel with pistols j'ust
outside the city limits about $3.15 due
( on a watch by Comer to Taylor. The
two met up town and only Taylor fail
’ ing to have his pistol prevented the
> fight then. Taylor armed himself and
went out near Comer’s home and waited
for him to come. When the two men
» were near enough they began firing.
Comer was killed and Taylor was badly
wounded.
During the fusillade Taylor’s sister
ran between the men as a peacemaker
and was herself shot through the head
by Taylor. She died in a few minutes.
Taylor was carried to a physician for
[ treatment and will be locked up if be
( lives.
Heavy Rains Damage Railroads.
San Francisco, Nov. 22. —Train ser
vice in South California is at a stand
still owing to washouts. On the Santa
■ Fe between Los Angeles and this city
there are eight washouts, and on the
* Southern Pacific railroad there are three.
Both railroad companies have tempo
rarily suspended their time cards. Rain
is still falling.,
BAD BLOOD,
BAD COMPLEXION.
>
The skin is the seat of an almost end
less variety of diseases. They are known
by various names, but are all due to the
same cause, acid and other poisons in
the blood that irritate and interfere with
the proper action of the skin.
To have a smooth, soft skin, free from
1 all eruptions, the blood must be kept pure
and healthy. The many preparations of
arsenic and potash and the large number
J of face powders and lotions generally
used in this class of diseases cover up
for a short time, but cannot remove per-
■ manently the ugly blotches and the red,
disfiguring pimples.

Mr. 11. T. Shobe, 1704 Lucas Avenue, St. Louis,

With a "disfiguring eruption on her face, which

out result, until we decided to try S. S. S., and by
j the time the first bottle was finished the eruption
began to disappear. A dozen bottles cured her
. completely and left her skin perfectly s.nooth.
She is now seventeen yeers old, and not a sign of
the embarrassing disease has ever returned.”

Sir Arthur Sullivan Dead.
London, Nov. 22.—Sir Arthur Sulli
van, the musical composer, is dead, the
result of heart failure. Sir Arthur Sul
livan’s death was very sudden. While
he was laughing and talking he fell
down and died within a few minutes.
He had been ailing for some time, but it
was not believed his heart was affected.
Recently he had been in better health
than for some weeks past.
Czar Slightly Improved.
Lividia, Nov. 22.—The czar passed a
fairly good day yesterday. At 2 o’clock
in the afternoon his temperature fell to
100.2. At 10 o’clock in the evening it
had risen to 101.7; pulse, 66. During

ico, which has been placed on the run
between this city and the Mexican coast
