Extraordinary license

" 1t seems to me-" remarked one of
our citizens the other day, " that ply
sicians are allowed extraordinary IL
cense in the manner in which they
juggle with the welfare of their pa
tients."
Now here is Dr. who was at
tending Mr. up to the time of his
death, and if he treated him for one
thing he treated him for a dozen dif-
ferent disorders. First the doctor said
pneumonia was the trouble then it
was consumption. Then the patient
was dosed Tor heart trouble, and so on
until just before he died it was ascer,
tanned that disease of the kidneys was
the real trouble, and that which had
been first treated as pneumonia, con-
sumption, heart disease, etc, were but
the, symptoms of kidney diseases.
g But then it was too late.
" This is only one case in hundred,
and | am beginning to lose faith ia the
doctors altogether In fact / haven't
had any need for their services since
| began to keep Warmers Sale Cure
in my house, a little over three years
ago. Whenever l feel little out OF
sorts take few doses OF it, confident
that the source OF all disease is in the
kidneys, which / know Warmers Safe
Cure will keep in good order, and will
eradicate aly disease that may be
lurking there. Had Mr. followed
a similar course, | have no doubt that
he would be alive to-day but of course
all people don't think alike.
Zone thing is certain, however, and
that is the doctors are allowed a little
too much freedom in the way they
have of pretending to know that which
they really know nothing about. II
they don't know what is the real
trouble with the patient, they should
admit it and not go on and expert
ment at the cost of the patients life

Viewed BY Capitalists.

A party Of capitalists filling two spe-
eiai cars left New York Saturday
night on tour of the South, in charge
OF John II. Inman and John @. CAL
houn Hon. Abram S. Hewitt is
among them. The other members of
the party were ex-Mayor Cooper, of
New York John G. Calhoun, capital
list, having large railroad interests
John H. Inman, president of the Rich
mond Terminal company Friedrich
Taylor, banker, New York; b. B.
Thackenthol, Jr, manager OF Mr.. Hew-
tits aud Mr.. CoOpor's blast furnaces,
and James Stoakes, superintendent of
the Trenton, New Jersey, Iron mill.
They arrived in johnson City Tues
day morning on No. 4 and left on
special for Cranberry to examine the
quality and quantity OF the celebrated
magnetic iron ore, the only steel max
ing ore in the South, To say they
were pleased with all they saw would
be putting it mild. They were pleased
even beyond their greatest expec-
tations. They found ore in mex.
haustable quantities. And such ore!
Their mining expert pronounced it
the best in the South After spending
several hours looking over the Gran
berry region they returned to johnson
City and were met by party Of citi-
zens with carriages, but as the hour
was very late they had to decline 60
ing over the city, much to their regret.
A committee OF citizens headed by
Mr.. d. S. Mcintyre, of the First Ma
tional Bank, called on them in their
cars and spent several hours talking
Johnson City to them.
! The party left on No. 3 for Knox
vile and before returning to New York
will visit Charleston, Savannah and
Brunswick to ascertain by actual OBJ
servation the facilities afforded by
these ports as outlets for industrial
products Of the South. According to
q special in the Atlanta Constitution
Mr.. Hewittis reliably reported to have
said that his principal purpose in max
ing the trip was to carefully examine
some of the coal fields and iron ore
districts OF Tennessee and Georgia
and that il his examination confirms
the account he has had of the vast
coal and mineral resources OF those
states, he will probably move his en-.
tire iron mandatory plant, now in
| Pennsylvania, to the South, and most
likely locate either in Tennessee OF
Georgia. This possibility foreshadows
a thing of the greatest Importance tc
the South, as Mr.. Hewitt now employs
in his Pennsylvania iron industry over
1000 men, and a change OF base would
involve his carrying all those hands
with their families, to his new field o.
operation. 1t is impossible to say ex
actly where he may locate, as he has
no preconceived preference, but viii
be governed entirely by his inspection
OF the whole territory, and settle
wherever he find the greatest advan
tages. Johnson City offers induce
ments no other place in the South car
offer and will be considered by Mr.
Hewitt.

The Ticket.

Last Tuesday night a mass meeting
OF citizens was held at Jobe's Opera
House for the purpose OF nominating
candidates for Mayor and Aldermen.
The meeting was called to order by
Mayor Dickinson. H. II. Carr was
elected permanent chairman and DR..
Cox was elected secretary. A motion
was made by Isaac Harr, Esqr., that
the Democrats and Republicans should
unite and nominate a citizens ticket
composed OF a Democratic Mayor and
three Aldermen and four Republican
Aldermen, and that the new Recorder
should be Republican and the Chief
of Police should be a Democrat and
the remainder of the police force be
equally divided. The motion carried.
H. H. Carr and S. Simcox were plac-
ed in nomination for Mayor but the
names of Carr and Simcox were with
drawn and Ike lobe was nominated
by reclamation, A committee was
then appointed to submit the names
of seven Aldermen. After a change
or two the following gentlemen were
nominated II II. Carr s. Simcox,
w. A. Dickinson, Dem, w. B. White

The sad news was received here last
Friday OF the death OF Mrs. II. B. Clark,
which occurred at Winter Park, Fori.
ola, on the 9TH inst. She had been in
poor health for some time and had
been IN Florida only a few months,
having gone there from Boston on ae-
count OF her condition, but the imme-
diate cause OF her death is not known.
Her health had been so very much
improved while in Florida that Mr.,
Clark felt safe in leaving her for
short time and had gone to Boston on
business only Il few days before her
death, and was still there when he re-
ceived the sad news. Mrs. Clark was
formerly Leila May Gentry, daughter
OF Mrs. Gentry, OF this place, and was
universally loved here for her many
good qualities Of mind and heart, in
fact, she was layorite with all who
knew her. The remains arrived in the
city last night and were inferred in
the city cemetery this morning at 10
O'Clock. Rev. +. B. Robertson con.
Quoted the services at the house. Many
friends of the deceased attended the
services at the house and followed the
remains to their last resting place in
the silent city Of the dead. The desc
late husband, motherless son and
mourning relatives have the sympa-
thy of the community In their loss.
