ACANDIDATE'S EXPERIENCE

InaSmuch as we had no Salt
River packet to carry our defeated
candidates up the river, we hope
to atone for the same by dedicating
the following piece of poetry to each
one of them. They can insert their
names where the name of Jim Jones
occurs and see how well it fits them
in this instance:
Jim Jones, he was candidate for Office
so he was;
He'd been workin' long from daylight in
the Democratic cause;
He'd heard about the salary an office
holder draws,
So he went out for an office in the morn
in'
He brushed up his old black beaver and
polished up his boots;
He got him twenty packages of Georgia
made cherOotS;
An they missed him from the village
and political disputes,
For he went in for an Office in the morn
in!
But the office was a-coming', an they
told him for to wait
The road was kinder crooked when he
thought it kinder straight;
But Jones he kept aswingin' on the
Democratic gate,
For, " said he, "rll catch the office in
the mornin'"
Soon the candidates had smoked up all ot
Jones fine cherOotS,
An the mud had worn the polish from his
brogans and his boots;
And he lost his reputation in politica
disputes,
An he never got the Office in the
mOrnin',

A few days since Justice Harlan
delivered the opinion of the supreme
court in the case of Remington VS.
the State of Georgia involving the
constitutionality OF the state law
prohibiting the running of freight
cars in Georgia on Sunday. The
opinion held the law to be valid
Justice Harlan said the legislature
had right to designate a day Of
the week when all labor should be
suspended, and that 1t could not be
claimed that the wrong day hac
been designated The state law
was not, he said, directed at inter

After having once declared the
income tax right, the United States
Supreme court turned around and
said it was unconstitutional-evi-
IDENTITY in the interest of the
money power, Now, the same
court declares, that the gold bonds
of the state of Mississippi,
for the Improvement of the
Mississippi river, are constitutional
and right, although that instru-
ment recognizes silver and green
backs, as well as gold. 1t appears
that our highest courts are sue
cumbing to the influences OF syndi-
Gates, trusts, and the money power
in general. Too bad.

We all know that any tired mus
Gle can be restored by rest. Your
stomach is a muscle. Dyspepsia is
its manner of saying, 81 am tired
give me a rest" To rest the stom-
ach you must do its work outside
the body.
This is the Shakers method of
curing Indigestion, and It's success
is best attested by the fact that
these people are practically free
from what is without doubt the
most prevalent of all diseases, The
Shaker Digestive Cordial not only
contains digested food, which is
promptly absorbed without taxing
the tired digestive organs, but it is
likewise an aid to the digestion OF
other foods in the stomach. A To-
cent trial bottle will convince you
of it's merit, and these you can OBJ
tain through all druggists.

Benediction. ..... by Rev. E. Thompson
The graduates acquitted them
selves splendidly, and many boquets
were laid at eace ones feet, as they
bowed themselves down.
The exercises were truly interest
ing, and the audience, although
uncomtortably seated on account
of being crowded into a limited
space, and that on poorly con-
structed benches for comfort, kept
in tolerably good humor during the
entire evening.
Professor Faulkner, at the close
invited the audience back tonight
to witness the performance of other
classes in the school, promising them
a more varied programme, for an
entertainment.
The trustees of the school have
every reason to be proud of the fine
school they have built up here, and
they should keep their eyes on it.,
and never let the interest lay, for
want of sinews to build it up, Let
them take as their motto Excel
sior,' and with the principal and
corps of teachers they now have, the
school must succeed.

COMMENCEMENT EXERCISES.
The Graduating Glass Of the West
Side Public School Crown Them
selves with Laurels.

The West side Assembly hall was
literally packed last night-the oc-
caSion beiug the commencement
exercises of the West side public
school.
Invitations had been issued by
the graduating class to friends and
patrons of the school, several days
ago, aud the large hall was filled
shortly after night.fall, to witness
the closing exercises, of the Senior
Glass, of 1896.
The stage had been BEAUTIFULLY
trimmed, by deft fingers, with
flowers and vines, notices and
pictures, and the well arranged
stands made it appear more as a
drawing room than the bare stage,
it was before the artists took it in
charge. On the right semi circle
of chairs were arranged for the
music pupils, who were programmed
for instrumental pieces, during the
evening. In front of these chairs
we're other seats arranged for the
corps of teachers, who have been
employed in the work of teaching
the young idea how to conjugate
verbs and construct sentences.
In the centre of the stage, chairs
were placed for the graduating
class, and on the left of these were
arranged chairs for the school
trustees, and other guest of honor,
and in these seats were seated
Mayor Hardin and wife, Mr.. Buff
Kizer and wife, W. R. Grim, Geo. 7.

and invoked the giver of all things,
