THE JUDGE rs SOUND.

The Calhoun Courier has no patience
with the flimsy and silly charge, born of
desperation, that Judge Query is on
the financial platform of the populis's.
Hear it: "The Russell organs are accus-
ing Jim Query of advocating populistic
doctrines in his speeches throughout the
Slstrict. This is doubtless because the
judge advocates the carrying out of the
free silver clause of the Chicago platform
inst as 'Bright Ben" and other demo-
cratic speakers in the second district in
tegpreted it during the last campaign.
There was no populism in the speech of
Judge Query made in Arlington, and
the popalists present did not fail to vince
under his plain spoken and logical de-
sense of the democratic party. Why
stoop TO such low flung arguments to
holster weak cause?"

BALLOT REFORM.

The time seems to have arrived when
Georgia needs some kind of ballot reform.
The use of whisky and money in cleo
tons is wrong in principle and democrat
izlns in effect, and all good men, OF
whatever party, will frown upon such
nractices as vicious and wrong. On this
subject the Columbus Herald says:
"rhe buying of votes and the debauch-
ery of voters should be stopped. The
harmful practice has been going on SO
long and has grown to such an extent
that it is now almost impossible for a
man to be elected to any office without
buying his way in. This state of affairs
is almost deplorable. Proper laws con-
trolling elections, rgidIy enforced, alone
can remedy the rapidly growing evil"

THE usually serene Albany Herald is
getting testy, and declares that The
NEWS either doesn't understand the
significance of the vote of congress on
the ratios of silver to gold, or is willfully
disappearing Congressman Russell.
Maybe it's both, from the Herald's stand
point But that doesn't blot ont the fact
that Mr.. Russell voted against the coin
age of silver at ratio of Is to /, then
for it at ratios up to 20 to l, then for a
measure that would coin it at a ratio of
Is to /, and rounded it all off with a vote
to stop it's coinage entirely. Can the
Herald approve of such record as that,
much less defend it? We" repeat, what
are Mr.. Russell's silver views? Has he
any? Let his Albany organ answer.

ascribes red hair TO superabundance
of iron In the blood. Red-haired peo-
pie are, as rule. we are told, more
vigorous, more robust and more IN

whose hair is either black or of a
nondescript color, and the reason
which makes their hair red also causes
this excess of vitality, elasticity and
overhowing OF healthy animal life. A

according to this theory, is a good
thing. especially when, as the writer
asserts, it renders the skin more deli
cately white and makes it more liable
TO freckle with the heat of the sun A
dark-haired person rarely frecklcs, the
reason being that owing to the alb
