WHAT THE DEFEAT MEANS.

After the first surprise at Tuesday S
election had subsidized and the politi.
clans had begun to look at the situa.
tion dispassionately there were three
phases presented which affords much
| Democratic consolation. Democrats
have a way OF taking defeat philoso-
phically, for they are more or less ac.
customed to it, but Tuesdays cleo
tions practically settles the vexed
questions and they can be considered
in this order.
Mckinley will be the Repub-
lican nominee for president.
Secohd-The Tnmmany machine win
be more careful about its future nomi-
nations.
Third-The populists haye not
proven themselves political factors in
the south. Explanations and all that
kind of thing will quickly pass by, but
the results of the election must be con
sidered for some time to come.
For the Republican nomination in
1896 Reed, Mckinley and Harrison
nave been most seriously considered in
the popular mind Ever since IIar-
rlson's defeat Reed and Mckinley have
Jeen in training for the place. The
ONO protectionist based his hope on
le gubernatorial election, and by
mmon consent his chances for the

red in his pecultar way thinks he is

ickinley j.. When he returned from
ne ohio campaign he told Repu bli-
AN congressman that If Mckinley was
looted by good majority he would
be the strongest candidate before the
Republican convention. And with
MeKinley's plurality drifting higher
and higher. Reed must consider him
self distanced at this juncture. Reed
has too much vanity and egotism 10
appeal to the people lie had strong
ly inclined to the opinion that the en-
tire campaign would again be fought
over his record as speaker, and he
strutted about the country very much
like a turkey gobbler until he went to
Ohio to help Mckinley roll up big
majority and incidentally accomplish
ed his own defeat
Democrats welcome the candidacy
of Mckinley. 1t means tariff fight to
the end Every other question will
be relagated 10 the rear and the Ohio
protectionist will be called upon to
defend his theories in broader field

But lie Had to Knock Him Out of Time

"Uncle" Attaway Johnson, of Early
county, Georgia, relates hisexpericnce
in life saving as follows:
"The road hands were ordered to
work the road from the Jordan ford
on Dry creek to the BlaSely court
house. Among them was great

Judge Gary's overwhelming major

to anarchy and Atgeld 1t was not a

ELECTRIC LIGHT CURES.
Experts Claim the Treatment Is More
Rapid IN Action Than Drugs.


Rapid IN Action Than Drugs.
Now the electricians have advanced
the proposition that electric light has
curative properties. The new appa-
ratus Is arranged to throw rays OF
electric light upon the whole or any
part of the body. The doctors all
know that ozone is a powerful disin.
fectant. DR. Ohlmueller, the Berlin
expert, has killed the typhus bacillus
in two minutes with ozone, and the
cholera bacillus In five minutes 1t Is
also known that the transmission Of
the electric current through atmos-
phere converts the oxygen into ozone.
thunderstorm clears the air. on
such established facts as these the
electricians base their claims that the
electric light has curative property.
When the rays are directed from
the apparatus to any part of the body
the effect is 10 increase the circulation
and bring on copious perspiration

is thrown TO that place alone If gen
eral treatment, as well as local APP
plication, is wanted, the patient sits
with his back to the apparatus. The
specific rays are thrown upon the
diseased 1ot and the general electric
light is thrown upon the whole body.
Different oolored lights are employed
for different diseases. For some cases
the electric light is thrown through
blue glass. For special effect on the
blood red electric light is used, and
for results on the nervous system the
color is yellow.
Sun baths are as old as the hills.
Electric light baths are something en-
trely new. The doctors examined
the contrivances with good deal of
interest The astonishing. claim is
made by the electricians that this
treatment is more rapid in its action
than drugs. They tell great things
of what it has done for grip-stricken
patients. There is almost nothing TO
which the electric light treatment is
not applied.
