THE CONTROVERSY ENDED.

The most remarkable controversy of
the most remarkable subject, brought
about in the most remarkable. manner
has come to a most remarkable close.
Never before was the hero of the
worlds greatest battle-on land or on
sea-forced to go before court of ip-
Quiry to vindicate himself of charges
of cowardice and disobedience. It is
therefore not unreasonable that the
trial-or inquiry-itself should take
some remarkable turns.
For long weeks the members of the
court of inquiry at Washington have
been compelled 20 listen in silence to
the attempt of Vindictive malicious
persons to bring discredit upon the
name of the nero of Santiago. They are
men, too, who know the Vicissitudes of
war from personal experiences in en-
gagements surrounded by a halo of
glory second only to that memorable
July 8. 1t is no wonder, then, that
moved by the impulse of Counsel Ray
nor's powerful oratory, they should
have broken all records at the close of
his speech Wednesday and rushed for
ward to congratulate the gray-haired
veteran who has so much at stake.
From a strictly judicial point of view
perhaps it was not just the proper
thing for them to do and it is no won
der the prosecution (persecution)
begged for a postponement of their ar
gument to another day. But we are
glad to see that deep down in Ameri-
can breasts there is a sense Of justice
toward those prosecuted, by official
dom that rises above judicial discre-
ton, as in the good old days of De-
mosthenes and Cicero, of Webster and
Clay, and in the hearts expression,
mutely but more forcefully than
words could convey rebukeS the tyran-
ny of hypocritical power.

SUNNY HILL TO MERIDIAN.

Iamonia, Nov. 4.-Mr. c. w. Ban

Mr.. A-sel Dakle, Jr., is moving from

AN IMPORTANT MOVEMENT.

The determination of County Com
missioners and the City Council to
drain the ponds west and northwest Of
the city is the most praiseWOrthy thing
from a health standpoint either has
done for some time. Malarial fever was
a continual menace to the Southern
part of the city until a few years ago,
when the pond just outside, northeast,
was drained. Since then very little
complaint has been made, notwith-
standing that section is densely popu-
lated
The low lands and the small ponds
northwest and west of the city are nat
ural drains for nearly half the resi-
dences in the corporate limits 1t is
NO wonder, therefore, that they become
fOully contaminated and that sickness
results on that side.
The matter was called to DR.. Por-
ter's attention about year ago, and
he gave it as his opinion that if these
places were properly drained malaria
would have no breeding place in Tai
lahassee and surrounding territory 1t
is fact, too, that must be patent to
the most casual observer who has
given the question any thought at all.
The Importance, therefore, of this
movement cannot be Overestimated. If
the present appropriation of the city
and county be insufficient let others
follow until the work is thoroughly
done. Then let it be continually look
ed after thereafter, so that the drain
may not be stopped or in any way
checked.

SCHLEY AND SAMPSON

The evidence in the Schley Court of
Inquiry is all in, and the work of sift-
ing out the chaff will occupy some
time. With Admiral Dewey at the head
Of the court, the people generally will
be satisfied that the hero of Santiago
will receive fair treatment.
Some of SIMPSONS admirers have
advanced the theory that there must
be something in the charges against
Admiral Schley, because almost the
entire force of naval officials at Wash
ingtOn are against him. Upon this hy-
pOthesis they assert that the finding
of the court must be adverse to the
man who actually commanded and won
one of the most noted naval battles in
the annals of history.
Yes, but Schley is not the first man
who has had to face the animosities of
his enemies. American history records
many similar instances, where jealous
officials have endeavored to ruin the
reputation of military heroes, and tried
to wrest the laurels from Their brow.
Schley is in good company in that re-
spect, and his reputation will not suf-
fer.
George Washington, the Father Of
His Country, was the first great Ameri-
can to be injured by want of support
at the national capital, and to suffer
from intrigues among his officers. But
his name will be remembered in his
tory long after his calumniators have
been forgotten.
The dashing and intrepid John Paul
Jones, who was left unsupported in
Paris, went out upon the high seas and
won his most brilliant victories for
America while his enemies in .Philadel-
phia were making their most vicious
assaults upon his character. His fame
is undying.

ious victories in Florida, was subjected
to the VenOmOus shafts hurled at him
by his stay-at-hOme enemies at the CAN
ital. So vicious was their warfare that
he was compelled to hurry north TO
defend his character against their as
saults. Yet Jackson lives in history.
Winfield Scott was twice court-mar-
tailed after winning glorious victories
for his country. His enemies failed to
make "a case against him either time,
and he was more honored after coming
out of the court than before. What
place in history have his traducers
won2
General Grant was aSsaned with
great virulence by the clique in Wash
ington. Even when winning his greatest
victories, his enemies in Washington
were most bitter in their Genunciations.
He was termed a drunkard, a man
wanting in military knq qwIedge, and
every effort was made to have him re-
moved. But Lincoln was a man of
backbone, and Grant kept his place.
1t will be seen that Schley is in good
company. History has repeated itself
in the past, and will do so again.
Schley will come out on top, right side
I'D with care. An added 1UStre will
glOrify his fame, while Sampson will
suffer in proportion. There was glory
enough for all in the great naval VIC
tory off Santiago, but Schley, the real
hero, Will get the lions share of it.

did it so cheerfully that many were
made to feel somewhat cheap because
they had not done more. Indeed, his
place will be hard to fill.

| II TONIC is a medicine that gives toro
IN to some part Of the system. Tboro
are different kinds of tonics. bnt
the tonic most needed in this coUnt,H
where catarrh is so prevalent il
tonic that operates on the mucous ror,-
branes.
PeTuna is tonic to the mucous mem.
branes of the whole body. 1t gives tono
to the capillary circulation which con.
stitutes these delicate membranes.
Peruna is a specific in its operation
upon the mucous membrane. If iso
tonic that strikes at the root of all ca
tarrhal affections. It gives tone to the
minute blood vessels and the terminal
nerve fibres. Catarrh cannot exist IonO
where Peruna is used intelligentIv,
. Peruna seeks out catarrh in all the hid.
den parts of the body.
Paul LaHdrum writing from Atlanta.
Ga, says:
"In January last began the use Of
your PeruGs and Manalin for what was
termed organic heart trouble. At that
time could scarcely walk to my place
of business without stopping to rest and
on arrival felt completely exhausted.
Had severe pains in my heart and general
dizziness. After using the first bottle of
Peruna began to improve and todayI
feel that am sound man and work
fourteen hours day without any bad
feeling. Paul Landrum.
A. NJ. Ikerd, an employee Of the C. B,
& @. r. R., West Burlington, Ia, writes:
al had catarrh Of the stomach and
small intestines for number of years.
! went to a number of doctors and GOT
no relief. Finally one of MY doctors
sent me to Chicago and I met the same
fate. They said they could do nothing
for NE, that I had cancer of the stomach
and there was no cure. I almost thought
the same, for my breath was something
awful. 1 could hardly stand it, it was
SO offensive. 1 could not eat anything
without great misery, and l gradually
grew worse.
FINALLY got one Of your books, ard
concluded I would try Peruna, and thank
God, 1 found a relief and a cure for that
dreadful disease. 1 took five bottles of
Peruna and two of Manalin, and now
feel like a new man. There is nothing
better than Peruna, and keep bottle
in my house all the time."-A. NJ. Ikerd.

LUCK, PLUCK, PERSEVERANCE.

We frequently hear the remark, hes
lucky cuss, everything he takes hold
of prospers, and seems to turn to
money" The reference is directed to
some one individual who has made a
success of life.
Nearly every community has such a
character, and the generality of man
kind ascribes his success to luck. But
is wasn't luck that made him succeed.
It was downright hard work. It was
perseverance. 1t was common horse
sense and that get there spirit that
most successful business men are i'm
bued with.
Did you ever stop to consider the
character of the man who succeeds
Notice how cOnscientiously he works
He knows no such word as fail. He
starts out to do thing, and he does it.
If he is working for another, he does
not slight the job because the pay is
small. He takes as his motto amy
thing that is worth doing is worth do
ng we'll" He does it well. He works
for the interests of his employer. Does
not have to be watched. His services
are in demand because he can be trust
ed to do his duty.
Such men are never out of employ
ment. You say they are lucky. This is
mistake. They are not lucky, but
plucky. They are possessed of a perse-
vering spirit. They see opportunities
and are quick to grasp them. They
work faithfully and well. That where
their luck comes in. 1t is the kind of
luck that deserves success and wins it
too.
Young man, don't rail at your luck,
but go to work. Remember that there
is always room at the top, and make up
your mind to reach the top. If you
do this you are bound to succeed
Nothing can keep you down.
Of course. if you go at anything in a
sleepy, don't care way, you'll never
amount to anything. People will soon
see that the only object of your life is
to draw your salary and spend it, and
pretty soon you will not have any sal
ary coming, because nobody will en-
ploy you.
You may meet many obstacles, but
don't get discouraged. Keep a stiff
upper lip, and try again. Failure will
not always follow your efforts, and if
you make up your mind to get there"
success will eventually perch on your
banners. Nothing succeeds like sue
cess" Remember this. 1t will help you
to reach the goal, and after awhile peo-
pie will refer to you as a lucky man."
You will have learned by that time that
it wasn't luck, but work. The next
time any one tells you that a certain
man was lucky, just take the
trouble to look UP that lucky mans re-
cord. You will be surprised at the re-
Velation, for nine times out of ten you
will find that it was not luck, but per-
severance and pluck. 1t was a consci-
entious regard for duty. 1t was duty
well done. You can have the same
kind of luck, and it is worth working
for.
