Americus is still a bowling wilder

behemoths, mlnkitunks, and the royal

Our crippled electric plant is still a
hospital subject, and inst when repairs
upon it Will be made no one knows. In

SINCE the Ohio convention,
advocates of "the free and
unlimited" are deserving the
heresy like rats a sinking
ship. Among the latest to
turn Il somersault is the Hon.
Charles A. Towne, of Min
nesota. 1t will be remem-
bered that Mr.. Towne as
pired to be a running mate
of Mr.. Bryan last year, and
was nominated for vice-presi-
dent by the Populists and
Silver Republicans on the
ticket with Mr.. Bryan. He
it was, who said in a speech,
delivered on the floor Of the
House of Representatives,
that ''free silver was the SAL
walton Of the country; that
the gold standard meant only
blood and sweat. " In an in
terview a few days ago, Mr..
ToWne "comes down the
tree" and says Gree sill
yer, as an issue, is absolutely
dead. [ do not believe it will
be mentioned in the demo-
cratic platform or campaign
of 1904"

AT present, there are three
candidates for the democratic
nomination for Governor Of
Tennessee-Judge John G.
Ferris, of Nashville /; Hon.
j. 3. Frasier, of Chattanoo-
ga ; Judge w. H. Swiggart,
of Union City. Concerning
the latter, the Nashville Am
erican, of Sunday, says :
"Judge Swiggart is a demo-
crat of the truest type and
with a clean personal and
political record. Those who
know him best admire him
most. While devoted to his
judicial duties, in the dis
charge Of which he has won
an enviable reputation for his
knowledge of law, soundness
of judgment, courage, impair
TALLY and that cold neutral
ity which so we'll becomes
the Judge, he has always
manifested a patriotic and
intelligent interest in politi-
cal affairs and public ques-
tions. He is a speaker and
forceful debater, displaying
an earnestness and energy
which his quiet and modest
demeanor does not indicate.
No man in Tennessee is more
incorruptible, more coura-
geous or animated by a higher
sense of duty than Judge
Swiggart. Without cham
pioning his candidacy The
American can say that Judge
Swiggart would make a most
excellent Chief Executive of
the state"

The following memorial was
adopted by the session of the Boil
var Presbyterian Church July 21st,
1901:
Capt. r. Ii. Wood was BORN
March 9th, 1926, and united, on
profession of faith, with the Pres
byterian church Sept. 10th, 1860.
Was elected elder the last of 1898,
or early in 1894.
He served for eight years as Su-
perintendent of the Sabbath School.
He departed this life June 2sth,
1901.
He was man highly respected,
by all who knew him, for his many
virtues and Christian character.
lie will be greatly missed in all
the walks of life that were for the
upbuilding of his 'ellow-man. Es-
pecially will he be missed in the
church and Sabbath school to which
he belonged.
In the death of Brother Wood
the church has lost a most useful
and faithful member the Sabbath
School, good and earnest Superin-
tendent; the session, a wise and ju-
dicious counselor.
His place will be hard to fill, his
influence and Christian example will
prove decided loss 10 this congre-
CATION. Our loss is his gain, for
since he is absent from us, he is
present with his Lord.
While the session realizes that it
sustains a great loss in the death of
Brother Wood, yet we bow in hum
BILE submission to the will of our
Heavenly Father, who knows better
than we do what is best for us.
To his loved ones left behind we
can say, "Mourn not as those who
have no hope, for we are told in
Gods Holy Word, BLESSED are the
dead which die in the Lord"
Resolved 1. That this memorial
be placed upon the minutes of the
Seasonal Record.
2. That a page of the Seasonal
Record be set apart TO his memory
3. That copy be sent to his
family.
4. That the same be published in
the county papers and Christian

ITEMS FROM FAIRVIEw.

AS we have not seen anything
from this cline in some time, after
a-close perusal of the BULLETINS
pages, l shall attempt TO escape the
waste-basket and appear among its
columns.
Our happenings in the last week
were few, but will tell them with
an unbiased mind.
Among the occurrences, the open
ing of the public school is one of no
inferiority. Thesummer term open
ed last Monday morning, July 18th,
with a nice enrolment, and the
present indications are that this will
be a most successful term. After a
brief vacation the pupils seem to
pursue their studies diligently and
their enthusiasm is such as to cause
the teacher to labor more zealously.
Mr.. d. l.. Ayers, one of our most
enthusiastic farmers and best citi-
zens, left Monday morning for Glib
son ,unty to spend a. few weeks.
Crops are very good i'll this sec
ton, but won't be if it doesn't
rain soon, for it is extremely dry
here.
Several of our young peop'e at
tended Children's Day services at
Cooper's Chapel last Sunday, and
report very interesting time.
There will be services and dinner
on the grounds next Sunday at
Piney Grove, and Rev. A. Lam bert
will conduct series of meetings
next week.
Hauling ties seems to be quite an
industry in this com munity now.
The Sunday School at Piney
Grove is progressing nicely, and
everybody should avail this oppor-
tunity of having their children in
Sunday School.
Mr.. J. T. Ayers has been hitch
ing old "Dancer" at the ]. P.'s-

End of the Democratic Spree.
From the Chicago Chronicle !

What the democrats of Ohio did
on Wednesday the democl ats of
every state in the Union should and
might easily have done Ole year
ago.
In the spring of 1900 the demo-
Gratis were as we'll acquainted with
the political character of Mr.. Bryan
and his populist associates as they
are to-day. They knew that their
continued leadership meant party
disruption and overwhelming defeat.
The delirium of 1896 had passed,
but ii had been succeeded by a cow
ardice which was quite as paralyz-
ing.
One year ago when crazy popu-
list gained the floor of the demo
cratic convention and presented a
resolution indorsing Mr.. Bryan and
his platforms, democratic, populis-
tic, silver republican, socialistic,
and others, there was nobody to
object, although every man in tn
house was well aware that the pro-
posed action was impertinent, fool
ish and dangerous.
This year when person of the
same type undertook to perform the
same act in the Ohio democratic
convention he found no support,
and he and his resolutions were
promptly voted down. The other
crank who used to appear at the
supreme moment with cheap por-
trait of the Peerless One was on
hand as usual, but he never knew
what hit him or his banner. He
Went through a window and his
portrait found the floor, where it
was walked on throughout the re.
mainder Of the proceedings.
These incivilities, emphasizing
the remarkable change which has
taken place in the democratic party,
do not signify disrespect for Mr..
Bryan so much as they indicate an
awakening to the absurdity of per.
hitting emotional irresponsibles of
the populistic persuasion to STAN
pede the conventions of a great par.
ty in favor of candidates and prin
ciples to which it is not and never
can be attached.
The great democratic drunk is
over with. By rights 1t should
have ended year ago.

Heartburn,

When the quantity of food taken
is too large or the quality too rich,
heartburn is likely to follow, and
especially so if the digestion has
been weakened by constipation. Eat
slowly and not too freely of easily
digested food. Masticate the food
thoroughly. Let six hours elapse
between meals and when you feel a
fulness of weight in the region of
the stomach after eating, indicating
that you have eaten too much, take
one of Chamberlain Stomach and

may be avoided. For sale by w. j.
