1t is very cold for tho time of year.
Cotton looks sickly.
On lust Saturday night, April 2lth,
tho depot at Pomaria was robbed OF
three barrels OF sugar and seven boxes
OF tobacco. Two barrels OF sugar and
two boxes OF tobacco were found hid in
the ground about onc-fourth of II mile
from tho depot. 1t WAS bold theft.
Took ID. Hipp & Co.'S one horse wagon
from near tho store TO haul stolen goods
in. 1t is thought that tho entrance to
depot was made by putting q small boy
through ticket hole in negro waiting
room. 1t Is hoped that the parties will
be caught. This is the third oifcnse of
tho sank kind in about one years time.
The auspices Of our Sunday-school arc
encouraging. 1t will prosper without
n doubt if we (the officers and toachers)
work together for Gods honor and
glory.
There Is at this time q beef club
being organized in this community.
We heartily commend the brother who
has undertaken the task. Now is the
timo to organize in order to have fat
beeves by fall. There is nothing nicer
for ncighbors to have than we'll organ
lied beef clubs. Liver dumplings for

his chance and "took u dodge" on tho
Sc tnltor by doing little practicing while
Senator Tillman was away. The op-

ccedcd to spin around like an old stnger.
lc was considerably applaudcd by the
assembled spectators, and Mr.. Latimcr
declared that tho senator had beaten
the famous Josh Ashley in his first at-

and tho willy senator took tho prize, tho
opponents compared notes and they
found that Congressman Lutimcr had

rl6rida's robaeeo Fair

The tobacco fair which the State
Of Florida Is to hold ut LakeCity on the
9th and 2sth Of October next, will
mark new and important era In the
productive history of the United States.
One Of the results Of the war Ia Cuba
having been to cut Off the tobacco sup
ply from that island, has forced atten-
ton TO the eapability of Florida to fill
the field heretofore held by the Great
Antille. Even though IL has been u
matter of ascertained fact that Florida
and portion Of Georgia could produce
a tobacco Of as fine flavor as that
which comes from the Vuelta Abajo,
yet we lack the skilled workmanship
which was necessary not only for the
planting, but for the harvesting and
curing of the product. The misfortune
which has made a desert out of Cuba
by desolating her fields AS well as by
exiting her sons, has been To the adj
vantage of Florida, whose soil, in the
hands Of the Cuba Immigrants. is fast
building upa trade which i'll mean
millions 10 the treasury Of the United
States When Que recollects that but
three years rg.' the only tobacco grown
In FLORIDA Was II few stray patches for
home consumption, and that within
that time an export trade of one mill
lion pounds has h, en- built Up. il will
be seen how rapid has been The pro-
gres AMI how successfully the soil Of
Florida Ii ~ answered the call of the cul-
tivator, II IL Il matter Of history that
this imn, nse trade which has enriched
Cabans nj one tine really belonged to
| a favored section in Decatur county,
Georgia, and running southwark into
Florida. This tobacco, IN the days be-
fore the war, was called f"r In all the
capitals 0f Europe by cnnuoi~st urs who
sought the best there was to he had,
When in the days following 81, the
great blockade cut of this section from
| its market, the trade dwindled away,
and the Havana cigar made its way
into that public favor which 1t has
sustained ever since. 1t seems now
that the fortune of war, which de-
prived the gulf coast of Florida of this
immense trade, will he the means 10y
which n generation later it will be re-
stored To her. The exhibition ut Lake
City, therefore, cannot fail to be one
of deep interest involving as it does the
| successful growth OF one Of the prime
| articles of commerce, and pointing to
such a heavy trade which will assist
IN turning the balance In our favor.
1t will emphasize the fact that the
south is the seat of the great money
crops OF the world, of cotton and corn
| and tobacco, and that it must, there
fore become great in proportion in its
influence upon the nation.

Lock On this Picture Then on that

In Australia, on government-owned
railroads, you can ride distance of
1000 miles for $3.50, first class, while
worklngmen can ride six miles for two
cents, twelve miles for four cents,
thirty miles for ten cents, and railroad
men receive from twenty-five 10 thirty
per cent more wages for eight hours Of
labor than they are paid In this couu-
try for ten hours. In Victoria, where
these rates prevail, the net income
from the roads Is sufficient 10 pay all
the federal taxes, which is another
convincing proof OF the possibility of
government without taxation.
In Hungary, where the roads are
state-owned, you can ride six miles
for one cent, aud since the roads were
bought by the government the mems
wages were doubled.
Belgium tells the same story--farcs
aud freight rates cut down one-half,
aud wages doubled. Vet the roads
pay u yearly revenue TO the govern
ment Of $i,OOOO0
In the United States, under private
ownership, 1t Is tho other way. We
have paid the railroads billions In
land aud money and are now paying
them millions yearly for carrying the
mail, aud yet freight aud passenger
rates are extortionate AS to he almost
prohibitive, white wages paid railroad
employees are degrading and almost
criminal Ia their smallness. Surely,
America has deal to learn from It's
various mother countries.
In Germany you can ride four miles
for one cent on the government-owned
lines. Yet wages are over l@5 per cent.
higher than when the corporations
owned them, and during the past ten
years the net profits have increased
forty-one per cent. Last year the
roads paid the German government a
net profit OF So, U00,000.
II our government owned the rail-
roads we could go from Boston to san
fracisco for $40. Here is the proof
The United States pays $255 for the
postal ear from Boston TO San Francisco.
\ passenger car will carry fifty pas
sengeTs, which at $40 each, would be
Sou, or clean profit of S225 per car
and this, too, after paying 81 per cent.
on watered stock, which Is fully loo
per cent. on the cost Of the road.

No
Patchwork!

One of the most encouraging features
Of a cure made by S.S.S. (SNift' Specitic)
Is its permanency. OF all diseases, it is
we'll known that those of the blood are
the most obstinate, and therefore the
most difficult to cure. The medical
profession, In fact, have virtually adj
nitted that a real. deepseated blood
disease IL beyond their skill.
OF course, their admission is not made
In 50 many words, but actions speak
louder than words, and their inability to
cure, after months and often years Of
treatment, is sufficient evidence that dis
eases of the blood cannot be cured by
doctors. Their mercurial mixtures, al
though taken faithfully, only cover up
the symptoms OF the disease, induci Z
the patient to feel that he is being cured;
but when he Is sooner or later seized
with stitf joints, pain In the bones, etc,
the evidence of the DOCTORS patchwork
Is conclusive. Such results cauuot be ex-
pected from tho use OF 9. S. s. Being
purely vegetable. containing no harm
ful mineral ingredients, 1t Is the only
blood remedy which acts on the true
principle OF forcing the disease from

tearing down the health. No loss of
