D. M. Mill & SON,
Brunswick, Ga,
AFTER an anxious, fretting day, you need some
thing which shall fit your tired body as a well
worn slipper fits a tired foot. It must be
something more than food or drink. If you want
to taste Nervana and forget all your tired and
fatigue, take a cup of one of Chase & Sanborn’s
“Original-Package” teas. These are the leaves the
natives themselves drink with all tneir vigor im
prisoned. It’s a very differen drink from ordinary
tea. Try a half pound.

CONGRESSMAN W. G. BRANTLEY, GEORGIA’S NEXT GOVERNOR.
The Titnes-Cal! today presents to its
readers the likeness of the next gov
ernor of Georgia, in the person of our
distinguished congressman. Hon. Wil
liam G. Brantley.
S<nce the determination of Hon. F.G.
du Bignon not to become a candidate,
all of Southern Georgia has presented
a united front for our worthy repre
sentative. No man in Southern Geor
gia has a stronger following over the
state generally than Mr. Brantley, and
it is freely predicted by astute politi
cians that North Georgia will be al
most as unanimous for him as the
southern portion of the sta'e.
The oendition of Mr. du Bignon’s
health has been generally known for
some time, and those who believed
that South Georgia should furnish the
next governor have been urging Mr.
Brantley to allow the nse of bis nam°.
Mr. Brantley was seen last night, and
expressed a keen appreciation of the
generous assurances of eupport tla'
bad been given him, but to
make any statement at this time.
His friends, however, take the posi
tion that be is too patriotlo to stand in
the way of South Goeorgia’s naming
the next chief executive, and as this
can only be rendered certain by his
THEY FIND EVIDENCE OF OIL.

becoming a candidate, that ho will find
it impossible to resist the enthusiastic
and overwhelming demand that he
make the race.
Many papers, as soon as M-. dußig
non’s announcement was reoeived, edi
torially endorsed Congressman Brant
ley of this oity for the place, among
them the Wayoross Herald, whiob had
the following:
Without any conference with Wm.
G. Brantley, the talented cougressman
from this district, the Herald desires
to say that he is now our cboioe for
governor, to succeed the present incum
bent. Norik and middle Georgia have
already oonoeeded to South Georgia
the honor of eeleoting the next chief
executive, and in oar opinion Wm. G.
Brantley is the man we should concen
trate upon, Mr. Brantley may not be
willing to ohange his Boat In oongress,
which we s’ate by way of parenthesis,
that has homesteaded fur the present if
he so desires it, for the executive chair’
but if he should wish to do so, tt is our
opinion Sat he oan make the change
and that Georgia will be proud to
honor him. The Harald is with Wm.
G. Brantley for governor or for oon
gress or anything else in the gift of
the party.
