Geo. S. Tate tells an amusing
story of how the CITIZEN got him
into tight place. 1t got into the
CITIZEN a few years ago that Mr..
Tate was selling spool cotton at &c.
and would pay 1c for the empty
spool. In a few days a great mus
cular country fellow walked in with
a load Of empty spools, demanding
pay, and was about to blow up the
store and it's inmates with rage and
big oaths when told that it was only
a joke.
1t is suggested, inasmuch as
our friend d. P. Carter has made a
$50 citizen purse for best trotters,
that a number of others could do
likewise and get handsome prem
iums that would add to our fair. Go

War Between GERMANY and snain

War is imminent. A great many
years ago Spanish voyagers found
and claimed a small group of is
lands nam ed Caroline and claimed
them for Spain but they were never
occupied. Recently Germany laid
claim TO them. Two Spanish gun
boats were dispatched there but a
German man-of-war got there after
they did but landed first and ran up
their colors. When the news got
back to Madrid there was the most
tumultuous excitement The mob
attacked the German embassy, tore
down the coat of arms, dragged it
through the streets and burnt it.
King Alfonso Immediately called
his cabinet and they issued an ulti-
matum demanding German evacua-
ton. Germany demands repara-
ton for the insult to the embassy.

We all abused the republicans for
years for hugging the negro and
keeping the negro question to the
front. At last we had it down and
the problem was being worked out
by natural precipitation-set-
thing itself. When we see Halstead
or Sherman or Hoadley at it now we
call it "waving the bloody shirt, ?"
and the whole country unites to CON
denim them. That is exactly what
the American is condemned for.
Don't let it mislead you by this "se-
parate car" dodge it has invented.
1t has blown up this old smoldering
fire. 1t even sent man around in
neutrality-suspicious. negroes, calling
them Mr.. This and Esq. That, and
hObnobbed with them and tried to
stir them up to make demand for
more rights on the roads. 1t is the
hobnobbing with negroes, melting
them to renewed demands in a di-
rection that is already fruitful of
danger, and disappearing demo
crazy by pretending to be its lead
ing exponent and saying that the
commission was gotten up for the
purpose of getting the negro his
rights. We return to this plain
statement so the reader may keep it
before his mind and not be mislead
by the trashy stuff that the AmerI-
can prints now. 1t has changed
front completely.

What a turning of the tables, my
countrymen. The much-spouted-
over Georgia railroad commission
is proving so disastrous to the bus
mess prosperity that a bill is in
preparation to 'limit the power of
the commission so as to prevent
unjust discrimination by the COM
mission against the railroads of
Georgia.
Another torcible fact is devel-
oped that illustrates the monstrous
lying that has been going on con-
corning the heavenly holiness and
almighty efficiency of this famed
paraded before US for months at a
time, day after day, that the Geor-
gia commission was making people
rich down there, building up cities,
and giving the loveliest low rates of
freight, beseeching Tennessee to
initiate this Georgia humbug and
share in those good things. But
Row comes that very commission
and one of its chief complaints
against the Georgia railroads is
that Nashville gets better rates
than Georgia towns doll! Great
Gould! We thought they were just
revealing in the most ravishing
rates; but while our cumming dem
agogs were implorlng US to seek the
sweet benefits that Georgians en-
.joyed, 10 we were already getting
rates so much lower as to induce
that commission to lodge a com
plant. Where is Campbell Wallace
now?

the premium was awarded to Capt

Duncan. For Tom Brooks colts the
premium was given to 10. NJ. Fry's
colt; certificate to John Denham.
The display of colts was not as
good as usual but hope to do better
next time. From the best infor-
nation we can get there was near
four thousand dollars worth of
mules and horses changed hands
quite an encouragement to the
stockmen to try to make each sue
ceeding show better than the one
before. Moore, McAdams and
other noted traders were on hand,
and W. G. and Porter Carter lent
US helping hand, and others also,
Col. w. d. and Wiley Orr of Diana
were present.

A Song of Gratitude.


In olden times, Bethesda's pool
Was famed for healing ali diseases;
Once plunged beneath its waters cool
Each evil, stain and sickness ceases.
In modern days we find cure,
Of worth as rare, as much deserving;
A remedy safe, quick and sure,
DR.. Richmond's SAMARITAN NERvrNE.
For Epilepsy, spasms, Fevers, Coles, Cramps
Coughs, Colds, or any kind of Phthysic;
Its merit as leader stamps
1t fer above all other physics
1t goes at once right to the spot
Where turks the danger, never swervino
In all the world perhaps there's not
cure like DR.. Richmond's NzRyrHE.
As in the blood diseases lie;
Each artery, each vein, each curve in:
There's nothing makes i'll humor fly,
Like the SAMARITAN NERVINE.
For old or young, for rich or poor,
Whatever class of life you serve in.
To health VIDE open is the door,
From the Samaritan NERvINE.
Then, do you value strength and health.
And think these blessings worth preserving.
Better than all Golcondss wealth,
is DR. Richmond's SAMARITAN NERv1Hr.

Some Law Rrrs and Some Law None


The Americans able correspon-
dent thus corrects some of the eyre
gious statements of the Columbia
writer who transformed some of our
waiting brethren into the wrong
kind of candatical cats:
The Americans fertile and facile
correspondent who wrote up the
political situation in these parts in
Sundays issue, standing on the
vantage ground of Maury's capital,
certainly has listened very atten-
lively, and 1 may say intelligently,
to the Delphic oracle of the political
future. Some of the omens, how
ever, he did not interpret correctly.
In the first place, Andrew Jackson
Alternately, esq'r, and the Hon. No
BILE Smithson do contemplate MAX
ing the race for the chancellorship.
In fact, the former is an avowed
candidate, though the latter simply
"contemplates," as yet. But Mr..
Smithson has no intention of offer
ing for the circuit judgeship. AS
to the congressional allegation, l
must confess that it is suspected
that he has had and does now have)
yearnings (modifed) for the flesh
pots of Egypt.
In the next place, Giles does not
offer Capt. John S. Wilkes for the
chancellorship, and he is no candi-
date therefor. With him we pro-
pose so to arrange matters that
some of the predatory lines to the
opinions in the future reports of the
decisions of our supreme courts
shall read, wilkes, j., delivered
the opinion of the court"
In the last place Giles has no
candidate tor attorney general. Mr..
McCord, who, it is confessed, is one
of the brightest writers and most
and convincing speak
ers in the state, is devoting his
time and talents to neWspaper work.

The Southern CuItivator

We have received the September
number of The Southern CultiVator.
We find this valuable agricultural
monthly continues to improve, and it
is, certainly, doing a good work for the
farming interests of the south. Its pop
ularity is unprecedented and we must
think :dcserVedly so. Farmers in all
sections are awaiting themselves of its
help and instruction. All questions
connected with the business aud inter-
ests of the farm are fully and intelli-
gently discussed; in answer to- direct
inquiries many suggestions are made
as to the management Of the details Of
the farm. Legal questions bearing
upon real estate, contracts and other
practical business matters are discussed
from time to time, and the smaller in :
dustries, dairying, bee culture, ETC., etc.,
are properly features of The Cultivator.
The prize essay in this number is
on Intensive Farming" is fine read
ing and contains many valuable sug-
gestions. This, we understand, Is to be
followed by other prize essays ON i'm
portant subjects and farmers will do
well to avail themselves of the instruc-
ton given in this valuable paper by
sending $3.50 to The Cultivator Pub
fishing Co., Atlanta, GA.

cut one of the lynchers badly, car
RED him out to the bridge and hung
him to a girder. When they drew
him up by violent effort he releas-
ed his hands, and went hand over
hand up the rope, The mob began
shooting at him bnt he got on top
of the girder and came near escap-
ing to the other side of the river,
but was confused and lay down and
the mob lost him. A ladder was
brought and a man went up and
there he lay. A tussle ensued when
Sellers in his weakness fell off and
down 100 feet to q pile of rocks and
was killed.
