In consumption beware of cough mix

opium. Opium paralizes the nerves,
and gives the comma bacillus a good
chance to destroy the lungs. 1t is
always fatal. Brazilian Balm does not
contain trace of any opiate, but stimu-
destroys the microbe, and restores all
that is left of the diseased lungs to a
sound and healthy state which no other
remedy has ever been known to accom-

NEW GUBERNATORIAL ENTRIES.

The announcement of Hon. r. l..
Berner, president of the state senate,
as candidate for governor was an
unexpected political sensation. Col
onel Berner's announcement was
published Frida and filled four news
paper columns. The tone Of his plat
form is strictly anti-corporatlon or
against the entrenchment of the cor
porations, declaring, in other words,
that if the people do not control the
railroads the railroads will control the
people, He also strongly opposes
the aims of the business mems
convention recently held in At
lanta for the purpose of having eX-
empted from taxation, municipal and
county, new manufacturing enterpris-
es. All property, he says, should con-
tribute alike and equally to the support
of the government. If discrimination
must be made, he says, it should be
made in behalf of the operatives cot,
tage instead of the capitalists plant.
He declares that he is the candidate of
no ring or clique, and has an honor2-
BILE ambition to be governor.
Colonel l.. F. Garrard of Columbus,
although he has made no formal an
nouncement of his candidacy, is to all
intents and purposes in the race and
will contest with Messrs. Gambler, At
kInson and Berner for the democratic
nomination.
Altogether the combat deepens.
When it is over instead of one scalp
the sage of Pigeon Roost will have sew

THE BATTLESHIP DISASTER.

The greatest catastrophe in the his
tory of this country's navy occurred
Tuesday night when the United States
battleship Maine, recently sent to
Havana, was blown up in the harbor at
that place. About $50 of the brave
crew of the man-of-war were blown in
to eternity without moments warn
ing, and it will cost the government
millions of dollars to repair the dam
age to the vessel.
How the explosion occurred is a mys-
terry at this wiring, some believing 1t
an accident and others that it was
caused by torpedo guided by the
hand of dastardly Spamard. The
real facts can only be established by a
thorough investigation, which is now
being made, and public opinion should
be suspended until the decision is
known.

If the Brunswick newspapers have
been placed in any uncertain attitude
it has been because they were as com
pletely set to surprise in the effort to
bring Judge Atkinson into the race as
he was himself, and that there has been
an unusual absence on the part of him
self and real friends in soliciting the
precarious advantages Of a press boom,
and the presumable JUNCTION of a clan
destine center of over effusion. The
best illustration of Judge Atkinson's
cleanness and ability will be shown in
the fact that, regardless of local confus-
ion, all parties VIII support him, il no
eXtraneous matters are pushed, where
by doubt may naturally creep.-Bruns-

the farmers of Georgia could raise cotton

from the fact hat ever since he went IN
to office eight years agO-1890-he paid
on average of S1.83 per thousand for four
million tags annually, when through the
aid of that "nvestigating committee
he contracted for tags for 1898 at only 40
cents per thousand? In 1896 he paid
SLIGO per thousand for tags; now he pays
As cents, which means saving 10 the
state of $4,000 this year on this on7 item
alone. If this 'investigating committee
had gotten after Mr.. Nesbltt eight years
ago possibly they might have saved the
state 81, 900 annually, or at that rate In
eight wears the handsome sum of $780,
800! Nobody has made any "charges"
against Mr.. Nesbitt; these facts are just
plain figures. Mr.. Nesoitt has never yet
explained them away.
From the MorgantOn News.
The present incumbent of the Office Of
commissioner Of agriculture, Mr.. r, L.
Nestitt, has held that office now
eight years, serving his fourtE term,

Stevens of Terrell county. Mr.. Stevens
is entirely competent, and has the adj
vantage of being practical farmer,
which avocation he has followed all his
life He is pow state senator from his
district, and is serving his people we'll

farmer, a good democrat, ana good man

From the Dalton Citizen.
Mr.. O. B. Stevens of Dawson, who is a
candidate for the democratic nomination
for commissions Of agriculture, makes a
very modest announcement of the fact.
He names his qualifications, which APP
pear to be excellent, and expresses the
opinion that as rotation in office is a
time -honOred custom of the democratic
party a change in the office of commits

thing for the people. The Citizen takes

THE fees in the Southwestern rail
road litigation may be referred to as
showing what it costs when railroad
gets into court, and the interests which
profit from such litigation. Mr.. r. T.
Wilson of New York, the expert of the
Southwestern, received S150,000 for ar
ranging the bonds of the corporation
and for other services; the fee of Sem
ator Bacon as an attorney was $50
the services of Colonel Miller of Au-
gusta and New York law firm were
put down at $4,000 each, and Mr.. w.
G. Rauol of the Mexican National Rail
way received $4,000 for the part he
took in protecting the interests of the
southwestern. At least the foregoing
are the fees which an Atlanta dispatch
says were paid.

POLITICS AND POLITICIANS.

From the Savannah News.
There have appeared in public prints
recently various suggestions to the effect
that Hon. Henry G. Turner should run
for the governOrship. There is not the
shadow of doubt that Mr.. Turner
would make an able executive, and that
his election would have marked effect in
inducing investments for the develop
ment of the state, since he is known
throughout the length and breadth of
the land as wise, conscientious and
conservative man.
From the Boston Journal.
We wish to call Uncle Allen Candler's
attention thus early to the office of the
enlOmolOgist before he takes the guber-
material reins in hand. This snecure
costs the state $4,000 a year; and r
what? just to tell our farming friends
the difference between june bug and
humble bee. Any of our plow boys in
Thomas county can give us as much in
formation on "bugOlOgy" as Mr.. Ento-
mpIoglst; hence, we are opposed to any
such waste of public funds.
From the Carrollton Times.
Governor Bill, the boss of the "men
who CONTROL" was out of the state when
all of this was going on, and he had not
been at home long enough to stretch his
legs or Straighten QUO his raven locks be-
fore he was in caucus to get out a man

He only uncovered them, and the uncov-
erlng was not to their liking, hence the

From the FIT. Valley Leader.
Some of the Georgia papers declare that
they intend to pursue a neutral course in
the impending race for governor. That
is all right for the paper that hasn't any
convictions; but a man or paper who
knows what ought to be done ought to
help in the doing. As far as the prefer

Horrible Fate.

Beautiful Girl of North Georgia Dies After
Horrible Fate.
ROME, GA, Feb. 18.-One of the
strangest and most marvellous stories eV-
er known here has come to tight in the
case of Miss Carrie Ponder
Three years ago she vas handsome
young woman, blooming with health,
living in Walker county, near the Cohutta
mountains
One day while picking some berries in
a field she was bitten on the third finger
Of the right hand by a rattlesnake.
The wound was cauterized anu she
was stupefied with whiskey, but the
poison was not eradicated, as proven by
subsequent events.
She went into gradual decline, and
her movements assumed the characteris-
tics of those of a snake.
She began to lose flesh, and her dis
ease baffled the best physicians.
She would pull the cover over her head
and slyly peep out with a snake-like gilt
ter in her eyes.
On some occasions she would initiate a
snake in every way.
After enduring this terrible fate for
three years Miss Ponder was relieved by
death last night.

ONE OF TWO WAYS.

The bladder was created for one pur-
pose, namely, a receptacle for the urine,
and as such il is notliable to any form Of
disease except by one Of two ways. The
first way is from imperfect action of the
kidneys. The second way is from care
less local treatment of other diseases.
CHIEF CAUSE.
Unhealthy urine from unhealthy kid
neys is the chief cause of bladder trOub-
les. SO the womb, like the bladder, was
created Cor enc purpose, and if not doc
torad too much is not liable to wea kness
or disease, except in rare cases. 1t is
situated back of and very close to the
bladder, therefore any pam, disease or
inconvenience manifested in the kidneys,
back, bladder or urinary passage is often,
by mistake, attributed to female weak
ness or womb trouble of some sort. The
error is easily made and may be as east
lY avoided, To find out correctly set
your urine aside for twenty-four hours :;
a sediment or settling indicates kidney
or bladder trouble. The mild and extra

for, and he is always willing to do
either.

posed to make fun of AlleniCandler be-
