MONDAY.

We attended the commences
ment which occurred at the Ken
nesaw academy on last Friday
evening. 1t was certainly a sue
cess. Lotus Eaters" was simply
hard to beat.
We also had the pleasure on
Saturday afternoon of being pres
ent at the picnic there. The mic
was good and all right, but the
walk was sure "out O. sight"
George Benson, of Marietta,
was here Sunday.
l. M Greer, of Lost Mountain.
wheeled it here Saturday and was
the guest Of relatives, returning
Sunday.
Quite delightful birthday din
ner was given at the residence of
Mr.. and Mrs. J A Atkins last Sat-
furday in honor of their daughter,
Miss Nina. Among those present
were Mr.. and Mrs. James Milan,
of the Gem City, and George
Green, of Elizabeth. After the
dinner, few hours were spent en-
| joyabN in fishing. But we must
not fail to tell you that while on
their fishing tour, passing through
a meadow in which a number of
cattle was kept, one of our young
men who j.; noted as fine run
ner, and two of our young ladies,
who by this time probably have
come into prominence as fine run
ners, were enjoying their walk
very highly on that bright and Sc
rene afternoon, when suddenly
one of the cows made break to-
wards them. The young man also
made break and you bet he went
down after it right, too. But the
young ladies were not to be left,
SO they followed suit, and when
the run was up it proved the defeat
of the young man, and the young
ladies regular Nancy Hanks" at
running and ''get there" jumpers,
for they were far in the lead on
both. Of course we will not tell
you the age of the young lady
whose birthday was so happily
spent, for they (the girls, you
know never pass 'sweet sixteen. "
Yes, that young man was here
again Sunday to see that best girl
of his.
Watch next weeks issue for a
few sketches of our people.
Well, ! suppose after almost
five months writing and after you
reading so much about Klondike,
where found, it's value, etc., we
had better change our nom de

But little complaints about bad
stands of cotton.
Miss Alice Brimer, who has been
in Atlanta is at home to spend a
few months.
Some one may want to know
where Pea Ridge is. Those who
are acquainted with the road from
Kennesaw to the Cherokee Mills
will know at once and why it is
called Pea Ridge. You don't
cross but one small stream in the
distance, of ten or twelve miles,
and the road used to go round the
head Of it.
Anything to stop crime or lynch
ing we are iii favor of. We think
another thing that would help to
stop it would be law concerning
travellers or tramps, to take them
up and put them to work on the
streets and roads of the country
when they can not give good ac-
count of themselves. JACK S.

Will you vote to seat Governor
Cages appointee2" He frankly re-
piled: II have not heretofore ex-
pressed myself positively in public,
but / feel the time has now arrived
when should do so. / believe Mr..
Quay will soon be seated, and that
Governor Cages appoiptee will also
soon apply for admission, and l de-
sire to put mysely on record. Now,
wish you would make the follow
ing point very clear in your state
ment: That whenever | have been
in doubt about any question of pub
lie policy, and there has been room
for doubt or danger of error on my
part, have resolved such doubt in
favor Of the people where represent
alive am. California people are
entitled to two Senators in order to
be- on equality with other States of
the Union, and as | said before,
although it is possible that may be
in error in voting to seat guberna-
torial appoiptee where the Legisla.
ture has failed to elect, my error
will at least be cast in the peoples
favor. Besides, we're / to oppose
seating Governor Cages appointee
| would lay myselves upon to criti-
cism.
81 would Immediately be charge
ed with selfish desire to be Cali
fornia's sole representative in the
United States Senate, with all the
honor and emoluments thereunto
accruing, aud with sesking to con-
troll the Federal patronage OF Cali
fornia. 1t will be seen at once that
would be put in a very embarrassing
and awkward position, and as I be-
lieve in the principle that each
State is entitled to her full represen-
tation of two Senators l shall vote
to seat Senators appointed by the
Governor of California, Utah, and
Delaware. My personal relations
with Senator Quay are most pleasant,
although | would not OF course let
this alone be the controlling motive
in supporting him, but may say
incidentally that as chairman Of the
Committee on Public Buildings and
Ground Mr.. Quay mas done much
fro California, and it is my hope to
secure the support of various Cali
fornia public building bills"
Though Senator Perkins did not
say 80, it is understood that one OF
his bills will ask for an appropri-
alton of four million dollars for
new Custom House at San Fran
cisco.
In conclusion l asked Senator
Perkins whether might quote his,
expressed intention to vote to seat
Quay and Governor Cages appoin-
tee. He said:
"Yes, ] wish you would do so, for
| want my position to be plainly un-
derstood by the California people.

Locating the Censor.

St Louis Republic.
Here are some facts regarding the
military censorship of press dis
patches sent from the Philippines.
which, while not entirely unexpected
in their development, should be
thoughtfully considered by the Amer
lean people.
Adjt. Gen. Corbin, the lingering
relic of the regime of Algerism in the
war department, has steadily denied
the imputation that the department
in Washington exercised any censor
ship over Gen. Otis dispatches, fur
Their than to withhold from the public
the plans of future operations.
When Gen. Otis forwarded to the
war department his official reply to
the round robin issued by the
newspaper correspondents in Manila,
the concluding sentences of that re-
port read: Personally, | do not care
what they send. / do not favor any
censorship over news dispatches"
When this official report was made
public in this country, these two SEN
fences, voicing Gen. Otis personal
condemnation of the military censor
ship, were conspicuous by their alb
sence. Their publication would have
placed the onus of the censorship on
the government at Washington. The
war department censor's blue pencil
was, therefore, used To eliminate them
from the report. When Adjt. Gen.
Corbin was asked by the Republic cor
respondent in Washington to confirm
or deny this fact of Washington CEN
sorship, he declined to make any state
ment whatever.
Do you remember the despairing cry
of the army officer who was detailed
by Gen. Otis to perform the unpleas-
ant duties of press censor in Manila?
Il am instructed to let nothing pass
that is calculated to injure the admin
istration," was his unfailiny answer
to the protests of the censored CORES
pondents. There is reason to believe
that he was so instructed. How do
you like the new American practice of
doctoring, classifying or suppressing
war news for the benefit of an admin
istration seeking to succeed itself in

Question Answered.

Yes, August Flower still has the
largest sale of any medicine in the
civilized world. Your mothers and
grandmothers never thought of using
anything else for indigestion or bill
iousness. Doctors were scarce, and
they seldom heard of appendicitis,
nervous prostration or heart failure,
etc. They used August Flow
er to clean out the system and stop
fermentation of undigested food, reg
ulate the action of the liver, stimulate
the nervous and organic action of the
system, and that is all they took when
feeling dull and bad with headaches
and other aches. You only need a
few doses of Green's August Flower,
in liquid form, to make you satisfied
there is nothing serious the matter

As they leisurely return they an
nounce the recapture of the towns,
and Gen. Otis faithfully cables the
announcements to the war department

Explaining for Otis.

Chicago journal.
a Col. Somebody, who. presumably,
is on the government payroll, comes
forward with an explanation of why
Gen. Otis captures and repeatedly re-
captures the same Filipino towns. 1t
would appear from Col. What s-His-
Names explanation that it isn't the
towns Gen. Otis is after. but the in
surgents. and that the tri-weekly cap
ture of certain towns is but an incl
dent of the pursuit of the elusive
Filipinos. 1t seems that our once
intelligent. liberty loving allies, the
brutal and savage Tagalos, have a
habit of gathering in the suburbs of
Manila and taking pot shots at Gen.
Otis while he is editing the truth out
of some correspondent dispatches or
is making up his list of casualties for
the day. This annoys the general,
who is a man of peace and loves
quietude. Accordingly he calls out
fifteen or twenty regiments and or
ders them to drive our rebellious sub
Jects back into the mountainous dis
tricts, where there are no editor-gen-
erals to be harassed.
