GRIFFIN SPRINGS, Ark, has settled the fact that Bright's disease of the kid neys can be cured. When this becomes generally known, as it undoubtedly will, sufferers from all parts of the country will flock thither. The place is most beautifully situated. Its surroundings bespeak health. The writer makes no assertion that cannot be proved. He saw kidney disease cured and has talked with many people who went to Griffin worn out by cares and overwork and who came away restored to physical and mental vigor. The owners of the springs have built large hotel where hundreds of people can find accommodation. They are gentlemen in every sense of the term.

BEN BUTLER's friends, or at least the man who nominated him-the Hon. Charles E. Cunningham-declares that he will be the next president. "Why, just consider" they say; "Butler will cause the election to be thrown into the house. This is sure. When once there, Buffers magnificent powers will shine" Yes, when once there, but getting there will be the trouble with Benjamin. Very few elections have been thrown into the house. The people at large have a way of settling the contests of suffrage.

TIE editor of the Kentucky .Ssale /exvsal thus laments: Brothers of the Kentucky press: When at the recent meeting of the editors of the state in Louisville, we noted that many partook of wine, which was bad enough but what pierced our stomach's soul most was the conduct of one man. The holy bible says, Look not on wine when h is red.' The fellow didn't obey the in- junction, like nearly all the rest did, but he actually let his rcd wine set right be- fore him for at least two hours, and he was looking on it all that time. He should be expelled from the association. n The editor of the Sfass Journal was not the offending gentleman. He never looks upon the wine. Some time ago he vas member of fashionable church. One day he went up to partake of sacra- ment, but learning that wine instead ol corn-capers" was used, he bowed severely and refused to support the ticket.

 Sam Small Uncle Si) has taken charge 'of the editorial department of the Atlanta Cyaekfy, an illustrated journal Mir. Small will soon make a national reputa- ton for the Cyaek<y, for the richness of his humor never fails to find immediate appreciation. The Ameyieas /exysalisf has begun tke second year Of its life. The idea of establishing . magazine for professional writers was . new one, and has, we are pleased to know. met with success. The Amsyieas /esrsali1 should be highly pri1ed by newspaper men, for it illumines the obscurity of the great daily office, searches out the modest man who gives great thought to the world and in- sroduces him to his readers.
 Albert Palii1er, proprietor of the New York .Mersi.g 7os1sal has juss returned from Europe, vhitAer he vent to study the great newspapers.

 All men are farmers for every man sows more or less wild oats. He also reaps the fruits of his labor and hoes his own row through life. Even the poli- tician looks after his fences and nearly every man cuts his corn.
 A poet writing love song for zH< Csyyest says:

 He is not shrewd poet. He cannot turn his thoughts to poetry without think ing of his business. This poet is evidently the owner of a fruit-stand on the street corner.
 There arc four hundred John Smiths employed by the United States govern ment, and therefore John Smith is no

 The efforts now being made to amer Canada to the United States appealsto be creating grea. excitement throughout the country. A petition signed by all the bank eashiers and bank presidents in the different states is being vigorously caSu- lated and will be forwarded to WashinS ton this winter. The annexation of the Canadian dominion would be a seriou. blunder. It would prove great disaster to the banking interests of the country. and would cause thousands of poor cashiers and bank officials to die penSi- less. It would do more It would take away their ambition, all their hopes of future success. Canada has proven the very life of the banking business of the United States and has been the means of furnishing this country with thousands of newspaper generations. Annex Canada Not much. Give the bank cashier fair deal.
