THE BOARD OF EDUCATION.
No Meeting Last Night on Account of
Not Having a Quorum.

The August meeting of the county board
of education was to have been held last
night at o'clock at the Chatham Acad-
envy, but was postponed on account of a
lack of quorum.
If there had been a quorum it Is proba-
bic that much of the business could not
have been taken up, for the reason that
Supt. Ashmore was not present, and the
work, in large part, before the board is
the election of teachers to fill one or two
vacancies.
There are eight or ten applications for
the place of principal of the Anderson
street school. These matters will not be
taken up now, perhaps. until the Septem-
Der meeting.

Savannah Ga, Aug. 3. 1S97.-Editor
Morning News: On July 20 last, I wrote
to Messrs Tumlin and Toombs, state man.

been previously made. Yours truly,
81. F. Brooks,
Guardian Helen P. Young"
was very much surprised upon reading
an advertisement of that company in your
issue of Sunday, the Sth inst, to find that
in publishing the above letter of mine the
following had been added to it:
'P. S. If the late Jane NICK. Young had
taken an ordinary life policy in an old
system company, and paid the same
amount in premiums as paid the Mutual
Reserve Fund Life Association, the heirs
would only have received $949 instead of
$1,000. Gain by being insured in Mutual
Reserve, $1,051."
Upon inquiry at your office I was shown
the copy of the advertisement sent in to
you, and there found that my letter had
been added to by the above p s., written
on the remaining portion of my letter
sheet.
l therefore wish to inform the public
that I did not authorize any one to add
anything to my letter of receipt and that
l had not. in any way. any knowledge that
my letter would be tempered with before
publication.
did not make any criticism on any kind
or line of insurance in my letter and
repudiate the alleged P. S. which was
made part of my letter without my
knowledge or consent Yours truly,

A Michigan Man oBers TO Send HIS Dis
covery Free


There is always more or less suspicion
attached to anything that is offered free but
sometimes a man so overaows with generosity
that he cannot rest until his discovery is
known to the world in order that his fellow
men may profit by what he has discovered
1t is upon this principa that a resident OF
Kalamazoo, Mich desires 10 send free 10
mankind a prescription which win cure them
Of any form of nervous debility relieves
them of all the doubt and uncertainty which
such men are peculiarly liable to and restores
the organs TO natural size and vigOr. As H.
cos nothing TO try the experiment it would
seem that any man, suffering with the
nervous troubles that usually attack men
who never stopped to realize what might be
the final result, ought to be deeply interested
in q remedy which will restore them to
health, strength and vigor, without which
they continue to live an existence of untold
misery. As the remedy in question was the
result of many years research as to what
combination would be peculiarly effective in
restoring to men the strength they need it
would seem that all men suffering with any
form Of nervous weakness ought to write for
such a remedy at once. A request to H. c.
Ods, Box 1712, Kalamazoo Mich. stating
that you are not sending for the prescription
ont Of idle curiosity, but that you wish to
make use Of the medicine by giving it "a trial,
will he answered promptly and without
evidence as to where information came from
The prescription is sent free and although
some may wonder how Mr. Olds can afford to
give away his discovery, there is no doubt
about the offer being genuine. Cut this ont
and send to Mr., Olds so that he may know
how you cline to write him. 12-2S-7st

SHERMAN FOR PREMIER.
The Rumors Connecting Him with
the Place Reiterated.
MR.. HANNAFoR THE sBNAToRsH1P

II Is Believed to bo Certain That the Re-
publican National Chairman WIN Take
sherman's Seat In the Upper House Of
ess-McKinley Returns TO Canton.
CLEVELAND, Jan IT, -- The opinion
among those who claim to know Is that
Senator Sherman will be offered and
accept the seoretaryship of state in Mr..
McKinley's cabinet, and that Mr.. Hanna
will not be one of the cabinet advisers Of
the next president. It is believed to be
certain that MIR Hanna will be appointed
as the successor of Mr.. Sherman in the sem
ate, place which he very much prefers to
any portfolio which the president elect
could offer him Inasmuch as the sena-
torial appointment would have to be made
by Governor Bushnell, the arrangement
herein suggested is said to indicate the
friendly feeling which Senator-elect For
aker has for the president elect and for the
chairman Of the national committee.
Regarding the selection of Cornelius M.
Bliss Of New York, for secretary Of the
navy, it is said that Mr. Bliss has been Of
fered the place, but that he deferred his
acceptance until he could ascertain
whether he could so arrange his business
affairs as to permit of his taking the place.
General Alger, of Michigan, is counted as
certain to be secretary Of war.
President-elect Mckinley remained at
the home of Colonel Myron L. Herrick
yesterday. In company with Mr. and Mrs.
HerriclS he attended services at the Old
Stone church There was large congre-
CATION present. The pastor prayed for
, divine blessing upon the president-elect
and those who were to compose his ad-
ministration As Mr.. Mckinley left the
church an amusing incident occurred.
After he had taken his seat in the carriage
three small boys ranged themselves in
line before the carriage door. The presi-
dent-elect bowed and smiled, and was
about to say pleasant word to the young
sters when one Of them, evidently by pre-
arrangement, cried "Three cheers for Nc
Kinley." The cheers were given with q
hearty good will, while the assembled by
ISLANDERS olapped their hands and the
president-elect's face was wreathed in
smiles. Mr.. and Mrs. Mckinley returned
to their home in Canton this forenoon.

Ne Declares That the Result of the Recent
Election shows the Rapid Growth Of
POpulist Principles aud That the Party
Must Henoeforth Work Alone.
Boston, Jan. 11.-George f. Washburn,
a member Of the Peoples party national
executive committee, yesterday issued an
address to the Populists Of the United
States. In part the address is as follows
1--WE are to be congratulated upon the
growth of our party and the fact that in
the recent election nearly half Of the voters
of the Union indorsed much of our plat
form. No party ever achieved more bril-
liant success in so brief q time. Although
handicapped in the late campaign we
emerge from the contest stronger than
ever. Our party alone has a voting force
larger than that which elected Lincoln,
and an able, effective reform press Of
nearly 1900 papers. We elected several
governors, as well as hundreds of other
state, county and town officials. We hold
the balance Of power in the United States
senate, and have four times as many con-
gressmen as ever before.
eve united with the silver forces in the
recent campai gn-not because we believe
free coinage oesilver is the solution of the
better existing conditions, would meet
with the least resistance and would be-
come the entering wedge for our main
issue, viz: full legal tender paper money,
issued and regulated by the government
alone. Having proved our loyalty at the
polls, we are free to act separately on
advanced lines and to emphasize the real
issues our party was born to advocate We
cannot in honor lay down our arms and
cease our activity until the war for which
we are enlisted has ended in victory for
our cause.
The Democratic party proposes to con-
tinue the silver fight. Two parties cannot
exist on the same issue The greater abb
serbs the smaller. Therefore, if we re-
main mere camp followers of another
party, disintegration will result Our
party success alone forced the Democrats
to adopt the Chicago platform and nomi-
nate a popoerat for president Converts
made by party regularity cannot be trust
cd with the reforms Of the future.
I'VE are not Democrats, and cannot be
classed as such. We simply united for a
single campaign. The Democratic party
is but the rear guard of our own. We do
not stand for redemption money, but for
a scientific dollar, kept invariable by
proper regulation Of the money volume.
Then why should high school graduate
re-enter the intermediate grader Our
grandest achievements are in the future.
THE proposed retirement of the green
backs and the discussion of the Pacific
railroad question will bring before CON
gress the two strongest measures of our
platform, and whatever issues the other
parties may adopt the logic of events will
so force upon both congress and the people
the consideration of these measures as to
overshadow all others, and win to our
ranks thousands of voters from both the
Republican and Democratic parties l
suggest that national conference of
party leaders and workers be held as soon
as practicable, that we may have the full
expression of opinion regarding our
future work"
