No throat or lung remedy ever had
such a sale as Boschee's German Syrup

Twenty years ago millions of bottles

The Census and Persons Away From
Home During June.

Tn" count of the people in the Uni
ted states will begin in all parts Of the
country June /, and end in the cities
two weeks later and in the rest of tn,
country before the close of the month.
The people are to be counted at theis
places of residence, but as many per-
sons and families will be away from
their homes during June there is some
danger that such persons will not be
counted. If they are not counted, the
locality in which they live will be mis-
represented to that extent, and in
some cases this misrepresentation may
be enough to affect the representation

such absentees TO take reasonable pre-
enumeration in their places of resi-
dence. Such omissions are most like
ly to occur in the large cities where
families close their homes and go else
where for the summer. The occurrence
of the Paris exposition this year is like
ly to increase the number absent from
the country.
In all cases of contemplated absence

answers to the questions which are to
be asked with some responsible neigh
Dor who will agree to see that il

Such information might better be left
as a memorandum in writing. as in
that case it is less likely to be over
looked. The questions to which an
sw"rs are desired apply primarily to
the population, but also to all farms
and manufacturing establishments.
They are being published from time
to time in the press of the country.
BY taking this trouble the absent
citizen will do justice to his locality
and his state, and materially aid the
Census office in the performance of its
duties.

A Chance For the Howlers-It has
probably been noticed that quite a
number of corporations of the country
have been increasing the wages of
their employees lately. The b. & O..
company did so last week. and a num-
Der of other railroads have done the
same thing. The Carnegie company
lately increased the wages of its en-
ployes 12R per cent. and on the first
of May even the Standard Oil company
came to the front with a 10 per cent
increase of wages. In practically all
of these increases no application was
made by the men. In the majority of
cases the act has been spontaneous.
Good times have come and the employ
ers are willing to share it with the
employees.
We commend these things to the
attention of those n~ewspaper that
make a speciality of prating OF the
tyranny of corporations and the blood
sucking propensities of capital; who
picture the capitalists gloating over the
mlseries OF his employees. Editors of

attitude Of d~ecency. 1t seems to us
that they W it to themselves and to
'he class that they have abused so
rouhdly to say a word of commenda-
lion for these voluntary increases. In

"A car load of laborers came in on

on the Julesburg division of the Union
Pacific. At the outskirts of the city
about half Of them droppeo o. and

Waycross, Ga, May 10-The Satilla
Manufacturing Company of this place
contemplates many important improve
ments in the near future. They are now
putting in the machinery for a new sash,
door and blind factory, and their entire
plant, consisting of saw and planning mill,
ice factory, light plant and sash, door
and blind factory will be run by electric
ity. The company has a contract with

tion Company 10 furnish ice for all fruit
cars running through Waycross. The
cars are first iced at Sanford, Fla, then
at Waycross and again in this city on
their return. The present capacity of the
Satilla ice factory is fifteen tons daily.
This is not enough TO meet the demands
and large quantities of ice must be pur-
chased from other factories. The com
pany will put in an ice plant with a ca
pacity of fifty ions daily, and have it in
operation by next season. They will also
erect a cold storage house with a ca
pacity of 500 tons. 1t is possible that the
machinery now used in the ice factory
will be taken TO Douglas
Postoffice Inspector Peer, who was here
some time since looking into the merits of
Waycross for establishing the free deAv-
cry system, reported adversely, because.
as he said, the houses were not all num-
bered and street names not placed on the
corners. Mayor A. M. Knight, however,
forestalled the inspectors report by open
ing correspondence with Hon. w. G.
Brantley. Mr.. Brantley called on the first
assistant postmaster general, and received
a personal promise from that gentleman
that the inspectors report would be fgnor-
ed by the department. and that the sys-
tenn will be established here on Sept. !.
The postal year is from July TO July and

The Laurens Town Wants Closer
Connection With Savannah.
Dublin Ca, May 1O.-President j. 8. ST.
mons, Jr., of the Young Mems Business
League, will shortly take up the question
of making Dublin the northwestern term
mus of the Brewton and Pineora Rail
road with President John NJ. Egan of the
Central At present the terminus at
this end of the road is at Brewton, a very
small station on the Wrightsville and
Tennille Railroad, eight miles from Dub
lin. AS matters are now, the BreWton
and Pineora will not connect with the
Wrightsville and Tennille Road either to
or from Dublin, and the people here be-
lieve that it is done purposely to prevent
travel going from Dublin 10 Savannah by
this route, the Central getting the long
haul via Tennille, and only short haul
via the Brewton and Pineora. If connec-
lions were made at Brewton with the
Wrightsville and Tennille at Stillmore,
with the Stillmore Air Line, which is now
owned by the Central, and at Collins with
the Georgia and Alabama Railroad, the
distance from Dublin to Savannah would
he shortened nearly so miles. In past years
Savannah had a monopoly of Dublin 8
business but the building Of the Macon,
Dublin and SaYannah Road from Macon
20 this point, shortened the distance to
Atlanta py 90 mlies, anu PldCeu '1oe Ivy
81 miles nearer Dublin than Savannah. III
a connection was formed by the Brewton
and Pineora Road to Savannah, that city
could make up this 81 miles and gain
nearly 20 more, getting back the trade
lott to Atlanta. Ut will thus be seen that
it is to the interest of the Savannah bus
mess men to aid Dublin in becoming the
northwestern terminus of this road. In a
few days delegation of Dublin business
men, headed by President Simons, VIII
visit Savannah TO wait upon President
Egan, and il is the wish of the Dublin
people that Mayor Myers and President

with them In inducing President Egan to
