Most Mothers Know It.

Babies are always suffering from
flatulency, wind collie and gripping,
which, by distending their little bow
els, make them draw up their tiny legs
and cry for pain. To relieve the infant
of this discomfort, expel the wind,
soothe his little bowels and induce re-
freshing slumber, give DR.. John W.
Bulls Baby Syrup, most efficacious,
yet harmless medicine for all baby dis
orders. ~ have used DR.. Bulls Baby
Syrup for eight years. 1t has given

not bewithout it in the house. 1t Is the

WASHINGTON, October 10, '97.--
"What have you got to do with
Cubn, anyhow" That is the plain
English of the cOurteously worded
reply of the new Spanish ministry
to Mr.. McKinley's Qqixotic media
ton proposition, which was used
to prevent Congress- taking action
at the last session that would have
brought peace in Cuba long before
now. Having had one cheek di-
dramatically slapped by Spain, 1t
now remains to be seen whether
Mr.. Mckinley will return the other
cheek for another slap, or will rise
to the occasion by pr omptly recog-
nizing the independence of Cubp,
or even the helligerence of the
Cubans. Present talk in adminis-
trati0n circles indicates that the
other cheek will be turned to the
Spaniards. The opinion is growing
that Congress will have 10 compel
Mr.. Mckinley to do the right thing
by Cuba. F
AS though Mr.. Mckinley did not
have enough troubles of his own,
the two factions Of Virginia repub-
llcans have swooped down upon
him withthe demand that he um-
pire their dispute.
After series OF false alarms
covering period OF moro than ten
years, during which he has been
eligible for retirement, 1t seems.
that Justice Field of the u. 8.
Supreme Court is going to retire
sure enough this time. Attorney
General McKenna is sleied to sue
ceed him, and Cabinet shake-upt
is expected al the same time, which

welt In the Cabinet as Secretary of

The Gold Craze.

The Gold Craze is, by no means,
new malady, but IS as old as his
tory itself. The manifestations
have somewhat changed in the
lapse of generations.
The first serious outbreak of the
malady was some three thousand
years ago, and occurred in the i'm
mediate vicinity Of Mount Horeb,
when the jewish people, who had
not yet advanced to the dignity of
a nation, became 50 generally and
severely afflicted that they reduced
all the golden ornaments, Of which
they had robbed the Egyptians and
cast the metal into the rude form
of calf and adored the image as a
god.
For this offence the children OF
Israel were severely punished and
received special treatment to erad-
icate the malady.
For centuries this peculiar form
Of insanity seemed destroyed az a
national evil and not again until
the beginning of this century did 1t
appear, save In isolated cases.
In the year 1916, THE craze made
its appearance in England In
somewhat modified form. The En-
glish form Of the disease was unique
In that nothing was thought to be
good enough for money save gold.
The British people had not then
and never since have possessed one
tenth part gold enough to furnish
them with money, but such was the
OF the craze that to this
day 1t continues to enslave the
common people of that kingdom.
About the year 1870 this peculiar
form OF idiocy made its appearance
Ia Germany and rapidly spread

part In the campaign because of his
pressing legal engagements, has
been telling his Washington friends
that the Ohio democrats have an
excellent chance to win, If they can
only succeed in getting out a full
vote. He is confident that the re-
publican stay-at-home vote will
reach away up in the thousands,
and is afraid that the same cause
may largely reduce the democratic
vote. He says he never saw such
apathy among rural voters, in an
Ohio campaign, as exists at this
time.
Consul General Lee was in Wash
ington this week preparing for his
return 10 Cuba next week. lie had
conference with Mr.. Mckinley
and several with Assistant Secre-
;ary Day, but did not meet Secre-
tary Sherman at all. Still there
are persons who object to the asser-
tlon that Mr.. Sherman has nothing
whatever to do with the relations
of this government with Spain and
Cuba, calling 1t "preposterousn etc.
II would be preposterous for man
who has been in Washington dur
ing the last six months, and kept
his eyes oyen, to claim to believe
that MIR. Sherman has had any
thing whatever to do with either
Spanish or Cuban matters. The
opinion Is prevalent In Washington
that Mr.. Sherman will be froze out
OF the Cabinet before the first Of the
year.
A personal friend Of General
Lee Is authority for the statement
that he will return to Virginia in
the spring and begin an active
personal canvass for election to
the U. s. Senate, to succeed Ser
atoi Martin.

! Georgia, who Is in Washington on
business before the U. S. Supreme
Court is somewhat indignant at the
Misrepresentation which have
been made of the shooting of the
negro postmaster at Hogansville.
He said: "a great injustice has
been done to one of the best and
most substantial towns in our state.
The report of the Post Office in
spectors will bear out my declara-
ton that there was absolutely no
evidence ofany deep-seated plot on
the part Of the citizens of Hogans-
willie to remove Loftin. There isn't
a spark of evidence to show wheth-
er he was shot by white man or
negro. AT any rate, there was no
conspiracy among the pr mineLt
citizens Of the town, as some of the
papers put it,and all such reports
are Nunfounded aspersions on a
good people. l know the citizens
there, and there isn't better com.
munity in any state in the Onion.
A whole town should not be made
TO suffer for the deed of one mis-
creant. The State officers aie as
anxious as the Federal authorities
TO bring the guilty party TO punish
ment, and every means of detection
Is being used to that end"
Mr.. Mckinley is almost In a
state of panic on, account of his
private advices from Ohio. Boss
Hanna with all his egotism has be-
come alarmed at the Indifference of
so many men who have heretofore
been the most enthusiastic workers
in every republican campaign; he
fears the Indifference will last until
election day and that IL will keep
thousands of republicans away
from the polls, and he has COM
his fears to Mr.. McKin-
ley, who is now trying to devise
some scheme to arouse little en-
lhusiasm among the Foraker re-
publlcans Of Ohio. x-Congress-

"TIme Mt Last Sets all Things Even.' -

We remember there was time
in the history of this blessed coun-
try when the Republican party
vociferously asserted that the
negro was as good as any other
man, and entitled to the same
rights, and the one who had the
temerity to express different
view, was at once called copper
head and n traitor.
In pursuance OF the idea of race
equality Congress of the United
States which was overwhelmingly
republican In both branches, gave
the colored man the rights of full
citizenship.
Recent events seem to prove
that 1t was not patriotism on the
part OF these people that caused
the elevation OF the colored men,
but longing for place.
1t seems never to have occurred
to the milk pated charlatans that
some time in the future the negro
might tire of voting the republi-
can ticket, but that time has come,
and the pincompoops have a bad
case OF grIpes. How they howF

over that Empire, and extended to
Austria and all the states of Europe

BY 1873 it had extended to the
United States and vitiated some of
the brightest minds in this young
republic.
In all these countries in which
the lunacy has become prevalent,
the people have suffered as did the
Iseralites. Hardship, privation,
hunger and famine are ituniversal
effects to be followed in the near
future by national death, unless the
fearful malady is eradicated.

see what action can be taken in the

crosses the Sheetd farm. This Is
where the road was changed last
summer by order of Commissioner

the road on new line without peti-

A few days ago Mr.. Sheets came

County Superintendent McKillip is
preparing to open a permanent exhibit
ton of the work done by the scholars in
the various county schools.
Owing to the lack OF facilities OF inter.
communication and the irregular terms
OF school sessions, it is almost impossible
for teachers and children to become &C.
quainted. There has been no means
whereby the methods OF pedagogy adopt.
ed by the different heads Of schools could
be compared for efficiency and results.
Mr.. McKillipp's idea is to have every
school forward the best specimens in
each grade and line OF his pupils work,
together with an abstract Of the teacher
methods. All these will be properly
classified and displayed in one of the
rooms of the court house. Every one
interested will have basis for compare
son embracing the whole county.
The superintendent proposes to divide
the schools into two classes, the country
schools and the graded schools. The
teacher in each division sending in the
best collection OF work will receive a
handsomely framed, engrossed and illu-
minated certificate. These certificates
will be gotten up by A. C. St. George
Kemp.
While sp,aking OF educational matters,
1t ought 10 be known In future that all
pupils who graduate after full eight

examination will receive diploma
