1t is good news that Gov. Till
mar has agreed to a separate pri-
mary for Senator. That clears the
course and leaves the people a
chance to take care of themselves.

ants and "reformers" ought to get
together to secure proper and safe

Dear Sirs-I will write to inform
you that I was afflicted with Blood

nent physicians, and they could
not do me any good. I saw your
advertisement of P. P. P. in the
Apalachicola Times, and thought l
would try it. The bottle I got to-
night makes seven or eight, and,
oh, how good I feel. I have been

Gentlemen-While in San An
tonic, Texas, last spring, saw
your advertisement of P. P. T.
(Prlckly Ash, Poke Root, and Po-

of rheumatism, and thought l
would try d bottle, finding such
great relief from it, on my return
home I had my druggist, Mr.. John
Mcclellan to order me supply.
After taking ten bottles, I have not
had a pain or ache since, previous
to that I suffered for twenty-five
(25) years, and could not get the
least benefit until tried P. P. P,
and therefore, take pleasure in
recommending it to all.

When he spoke Of the money he
had received as senator, some one
in the crowd remarked, "You have
earned it; you ought to have some
more honors." The General said
that while he was the only one OF
his family that had held office in
forty years, during the war every
one of his brothers had held office
in the Confederate service, but
there was not such competition in
those times. Referring to the
Governors charge of corruption in
Congress, he said it was slander,
though he believed he could put
his hand on two men there who
were popularity believed to be cor
rupt. He urged the farmers to
stick together.
The Alliance was the best or
ganization gotten up for the pro-

were about one thousand persons
at the speaking, including excur-

of the day was that Governor Till

same carriage and the same seat
in riding to the place of meeting.
Gubernatorial candidates Evans
and Pope were not present. The
crowd showed no enthusiasm, and
sat like sphynxes throughout most
of the speaking. Gen. Butler got
some applause when he finished,
and Governor Tillman walked up

sayings and harsh denunciations
of Cleveland.

might be good policy to change the

sWARMs OF WoULD-BE CITIZENS.
And Judes GIegerich Too Busy with Other
Work 20 Attend to Them.

The work OF natural!zing applicants for citizen
ship was suspended in the Court OF Common
Pleas yesterday and will not be resumed until
this afternoon, and possibly not then. Judge
Giegericn, who has been sitting in Chambers In
this court attending to the immense amount OF
the naturalizing which has come up there, was
Obliged yesterday 10 sit with Judge Bischoff at
an additional term OF the General Term of that
court, which will also sit to-day so long as there
is business before 1t. Counsel in the numerous
cases which have been piling up in that branch
of the court had importuned the Judges 10 have
some Of the work disposed of.
These being the1ast few days that persons may
be naturali2ed and be able TO vote at this cleo
tion the stoppage caused n bewilderng condi-
tiOn OF affairs in the County Court House. as
come citizens hung about the corridors. There
seems TO be some uncertainty as to which is the
last day on which one may be naturahzed and
vote at this election. In the Superior Court they
hold that a man must be naturalZed by Friday
night. In the Common Pleas the work will con-
tnue until Saturday at noon. IL seems that a
person must be citizen for ten days before
election and there Is some doubt rs to whether
the day OF naturalization or election day can
be counted.
AhumorOus incident which ealivened the pro-
ceedings In the Superior Court yesterday arose
from decision Of Chief Clerk BOese that can
didRtes for naturalization who had women for
witnesses would have the preference in the
lines. The decision got abroad on Tuesday soon
after II was rendered. and yesterday morning a
large number of candidates had women MEM
beers OF their family or any others that could be
pressed into service To save the candidates from
standing In line from a half 10 n whole day.
