The Coming Municipal Election.

We believe that the Democrats of Au-
gusta made a mistake in putting a
ticket into the field, this spring. Ger
tainlv the clean, able and economical
administration Of Mayor Lane merited
the compliment Of an uncontested re-
election from the taxpayers OF THIS
CITY. 1t is a wise thing to keep an
efficient public servant in office. Moth
ing is to be gained by change when
man has shown conspicuous ability to
narfor,n faithfully and we'll the duties
Of his position. However men may
differ among themselves on the great
;esues that separate voters on political
lines the fact remains that none of
these issues are at stake in a municipal
contest A city. as we have before
pointed out. is. upon its admini5tra-
tive side. purely a big corporation in
which every taxpayer is a stakeholder.
The conduct of its affairs affects di-
rectlv every one of its citizens. Clean.
honest. efficient management is what
Is needed and when results show that
il has been secured. the best interests
IF m. public are certainly not to be
served by changing it,
Under the administration of Mayor
Lane the debt of Augusta has been re-
duced by more than $4,000. This is
remarkable showing for the brief
period of l. months.
In its last issue the New Age hints
darkIy at unpaid bills. We are glad it
called our attention to the subject. for
it affords us an opportunity to call at
tention to another splendid showing Of
Mayor Lanes administration. The
municipal fiscal year closes on March
1. 1t is inevitable. therefore, that a
proportion of the bills will not come in
soon enough to be included in the
years expenditures. and will, Of neces-
sity. be paid by the incoming admins
tration.
In making his final review Of the
years work. Mayor Lane estimated
that the bills left over at the close Of
the fiscal year would about equal in
amount those which came over from
his predecessor and which have been
paid under his administration. This
would make an offset and leave the
total figures for the year past, inclu-
sive. the same as stated in the annual
report Of the city auditor. During the
past week. however, the outstanding
found that instead Of equalling the
amount paid during the past year in
settlement of bills contracted in 1852,
they are actually about $1,000 less. Add
this reduction of debt to the amount
already noted and it makes grand
total of S21.54O.S4 to the credit of
Mayor Lanes administration, during
the past year.
Taxpayers Of Augusta. how can this
record be improved upon? Certainly
not by a change; but if at all by con
tinuing in charge of the city's affairs
an administration which has shown it
self so conspicuously worthy of your
confidence and support. On Monday
next let us look solely to the city's
good and do our share in its promotion
by voting the straight Republican
ticket

What TO do Until the Doctor Arrives.

1t is very hard to stand idly by ana
see our dear ones suffer while await
ing the arrival Of the doctor An AL
bany IN. Y) dairyman called at a drug
store there for a doctor to come and
see his child. then very sick with
Group. Not finding the doctor in, he
left word for him to came at once on
his return. He also bought a bottle of
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. which
he hoped would give some relief until
the doctor should arrive. In a few
hours he returned saying the doctor
need not come. as the child was much
better. The druggist, Mr.. Otto Scholz.
says the family has since recommended
Chamberlains Cough Remedy to their
neighbors and friends until he has a
constant demand for it from that part
of the country. For sale by Jno

THE MARIETTA PAPER MILL.

The Marietta Paper Manufacturing
Company, including the Marietta Wa
ter Works, Batting Factory and paper
mill in the country, was placed in the
hands of temporary receiver on last
Thursday by Judge W. T. Newman of
the United States Court.
The bill was filed by Payne & Tye,
lawyers of Atlanta, representing d.
Robinson, trustee for $4,000 of the
company's bonds, the failure to pay the
interest due last June being the cause.
the deed of trust giving the right to
foreclose the entire bond issue.
Mr.. Moultrie NJ. Sessions, of Mariet-
Ia, by consent of both sides, was made
temporary receiver and took charge
Thursday and is operating the mill.
The order of Judge Newman gave the
power to borrow $4,000 to pay debts
due, and the receiver began immediate
ly to issue checks for the company's
debts.
The attorneys, Payne & Tye for the
trustee, and Col. ID. w. Blair, attorney
for the company, say the creditors will
be paid in full.
The affairs of the company will prob
ably be wound up inside of ninety days
by sale of the property by the receiv-
er and reorganization take place.
1t is splendid piece of property, and
is one of the few mills in the country
not in the paper trust.
