4 BLOODY nlONyyI

The Atlanta Constitution calls atScn-
tion to the fact that April has been u
month in which this country has begun
and ended nearly all the wars we have
ever wagcd at home or abroad. II war
should be declared this week another
will be added to it's record OF strife and
bloodshed. Here is the record as made
up by the Constitution:
son April 10, l775. occurred the first
battle of the American revolution at
Lexington, Mass. On April Is, 1888,
the preliminary treaty Of peace between
Great Britain and the United States
was formally ratified by the proyis-
ional congress which mes in Philadel-
pha.
since the part which April thus
played In the achievement OF American
Independence was so pronounced, it
seems fitting that President Washing
ton should have been inaugurated on
April 30, 1889.
"The opening gun of the Mexican
war was fred April %, 1915.
"On April IL, 1861, the first gunshot
OF the late civil war was fred at Fort
Sumter. General Lee surrendered to
General Grant on April 8. 1865. Cen
crai Johnston surrendered TO General
Sherman on April 20, 1868.
lis April once more to wear the
bloody gars" OF Mars in the strife which
Is now pending between The United
states and Spain? Such appears to be
the decree OF the fates."

The waters Of the Lithia Springs

pleasant saliney taste, rather palat.

quantity, they do not nauseate, purge,
or produce any feeling of discom-
fort. [ find from the analysis of the
waters, they contain Chloride Sodium,

Lithia, Carb. Iron and Sulphate
Magnesia. These waters act directly
upon the mucous coating of the
stomach and alimentary canal, they

They are everything to infamed or
irritated surfaces. They act upon
the blood, changing it from acid to
alkaline. In Indigestion, Catarrh of
Stomach and Gastrelgia, supple
mented with proper diet, they are
a certain cure. The action upon the
kidneys is marked. Tho Sodium,
Potash, Soda, Lithia, are the best
solvents of uric acid, all calcrli of an

confident that the profession will find
it very useful in cases where this

Tease.
We are willing to do our part when
it comes t. defending the country. but
when it comes to making distinction
and saying the Southern soldiers should
be sent to Cuba while the Northern
soldiers are kept at home to do coast
duty we will certainly enter our pro-

FOR PERMANENT IMPROVEMENTS.

Atn meeting Of the county commits
sioners the FIRST NJ nday in this month
the following resolution vas offered
and will como up for consideration and
action at the meeting to be held on the
first Monday in July:
SIN accordance with an act OF the
Legislature tho Supervisor, with three
members of the board, bo authorized TO
borrow $4,000, or so much US may be
necessary, to build permanent bridges
aud permanent repairs in the county.
That said bonds shall not exceed 5 per
cont. The interest on whole and 81 COO
of tho principal to bc paid each year
until whole amount is paid"
The purpose of this Is to build terra
Gotta drains across the rouds instead of
plank bridges hat have to be rebuilt
every year, and to build steel bridges
instead of wooden ones. In other
words, to mako repairs on roads aud
bridges that will last instead of having
to be repeated every year. The pur-
pose is good one and would in the
end be economy for the taxpayers. IL
should go further, Eo@cvcr, aud in
stead Cf issuing bonds for $4,000 we
should make it 800 900 and build per-
mancnt roads from one end Of the coun-
ty to the other. In this wo would save
NOV only in not having to build roads
every year, but the saving on stock,
the wear and tear to vehicles, and in
time would more than pay the outlay.
And in addition to all this it would
make the country, rs it is in reality
anyway the ideal place in which to
live. But if we can get the start made
on the bridges and SO on the macadam
roads will como.
We hope the commissioners will put
this resolution into active operation.
