Tomorrow will be tne hest day ia
the year il we have spirit in accord
with the blessings we have enjoyed.
A thankful man ought TO be hap.
Ply man, and happy just in. proper
ton to his thankfulness. A detailed
enumeration Of the many good things
which have come into our lives in the
past year, would doubtless arouse =
spirit Of thaDkfulness in every indi-
yidual of this common wealth.
What grand country; and what
prosperous country, we have! What
grand harvests we have had. And
what an ovsrf1owing abundance of
the good things Of life exists in every
part OF the land.
Our business, industrial, social,
political, and religious concerns are
such as to inspire thankfulness. We
have just passed safely through an
other strain upon our governmental
machinery, which comes every -four
years, and there is more than usual
in this that inspires confidence in
the perpetuity of our institutions.
Democrats are easily thankful for
the general result, and Republicans
can console themselves that lit is as
well with them as it is" There is
nothing so bad but it might be worse.
Therefore Rejoice evermore, and
in everything give thanks" And
while to-day you revel iu abundance.

"A protective tariff is dead cock.
Its Sighting qualities are clean gone.
1t has lost its spurs, and even it's
feathers.
The people scotched it in 1890. II
sent suck Democratic majority to
Congress as had not been known in
the history of the party. But un-
mindful of the rebuke and equally
disregardfnl of the will of the people,
as is their custom, the imperious
leaders Of the Republican party, en-
acted the Mckinley bill in the very
face Of the rebuke They went be
fore the country again, and this time
the people so obliterated, stamped
out, and tro6 under foot the doctrine
Of protective tariff that it canno,
again be made an issue in this gen
Grafton. Even the Republican party,
with all the disregard it has habit
ually shown to the popular will, has
not the audacity or foolhardiness to
go before the country again on that
issue.
Now, therefore, what is left of the
Republican partyp A protective tar
if was its sole issue, and that being
dead. what excuse has the party for
living?
There is no issue indeed, upon
which it can rally. Its mission end.

as has never before been known.
Until new issue arises out OF the
administration Of the Democratic
party, OF sufficient Importance to call
for change of administration the
Republican party will be without an
occupation and withou, sn eScuse
for living. Both protective tariff
and the Republican party arc as
dead as any political issue or organ

The Death of John G. Concoran Purely
Accidental.
Later INQUIRY regarding the sad death
of John c. Corcoran at Glover's Gap
clears up much Of the apparent mys-
terry with which it at first seemed to be
surrounded, and makes il clear case OF
accidental death.
Mr.. Corcoran had left his engine cab
long before the express came up, his
engine having broken down, and he was
Just returning from the sand-house,
where he had left the tools he had been
using in making repairs. While
he was going back to the en-
CINE, walking on the ends OF the
ties, the express came up, turning a
sharp curve at high speed. Mr.. Coch-
rams friends shouted 10 him to look out.
He turned around only to see the train
few feet behind him. He must either
have been paralyzed with fear, or
thought lie was on different track,
and so was struck and killed.
The funeral will take place to-day un-
der the auspices of the A. O. IL. OF this
city, Of which organization the deceased
was an honored and popular member.
The A. o. II. met yesterday afternoon.

also appointed at yesterdays meeting.

ALLEGED FAITH CURE.
The Doctors Pronounced Her a Helpless
CrippIe-she Had Faith, Prayed, and
sTook Up Her Bed and Walked"

SAvANNAH, GA, February Ell
Eighteen months ago Miss Emma
Evans was thrown from carriage
while driving near Perry'S Mill, in TAFT
nall county. Two Of her ribs were
broken and her spine was so badly in
iured that the doctor pronounced her
case incurable. From then until yes
terday she had never walked step, and
at times suffered great pain and fright
full nervous attacks.
Some months ago she was brought to
Savannah by her brother-in-law in the
hope that the physicians here might be
able to do her some some good. Several
experts were called in, but they decided
that medical science could do nothing
except to alleviate her suffering, and
that she would never be able TO use her
lower limbs. To-day Miss Evans, who
has all her life been very devout, was
silently praying that her health might
be restored, when strange sensation
came over her, coupled with the idea
that her prayer had been granted. So
strong was her faith that she essayed to
rise, and, finding herself able to do so,
walked about the room, to the amaze
ment OF her relatives. The case is one
OF the most remarkable on record, and
has caused a great deal of interest.

The street cars had very bad day
yesterday, and there was correspond
ing amount of kicking on the part OF
the public, which wanted to ride and
couldn't get a chance. Several cars
Jumped the track down town, another
burned out, and there seemed to be
something wrong at the power House.
People on the Island are also kicking
hard about the wretched service over
there. With but about three or four
cars per hour, there might as well be
none at all, for in order to catch one,
citizens must 90 to the car line and
wait from one to twenty minutes. or
course none but people Of leisure have
time to do that, and as result the
average Island citizen walks. just as he
did in tho good old days, when there
was no such great improvement" as
an electric railroad over the river.

Interesting Occasloo.

Interesting Occasloo.
John Shade and Bert Hoover last
night gave the following version OF the
their trouble in the "Pig's Ear" saloon
Saturday afternoon: Mr.. Shade says
that when they entered the saloon they
asked for some beer, when Ford, the pro-
prietor, told them they could not have
anything on account OF some trouble that
he had with friend of theirs, some two
weeks ago, about paying for some
drinks. Mrs. Ford made the remark to
her husband to let them have the
drinks, as she thought they were all
right, but as she said this she got hold
of a beer mallet and hit Charley Mulla-
ney in the face, breaking his nose and
using him up In bad shape. At this
time Bert Hoover spoke up and told
Mrs. Ford that she ought not to hit him
that way, and she turned on Hoover
and threw the nallet, catching him on
the cheek ana made terrible looking
Jaw on him. Shade then stepped in to
make peace between the parties when
Ford attacked him with a club
and his wife with a Ratchet, saying
at the time that they would
kill him. The men escaped, and were
taken to a house near by and their
wounds were dressed, aud yesterday
Mullaney was unable to get out of the
house. To-day warrants will be sworn
out for Ford and his wife, charged with
assault with intent TO kill, and from the
evidence already procured it will be
very likely to make the pigs Ear"
think that somebody had slit it with a
knife,
