to inform my brother that when the Martin Juntion property was sold, it was sold in a body. And no one but John Jelks of Mem phis and the Augusta represena- tive were bidders for same. Of course the Free Presser was not here at the time of sale and judg- ing from the tenor of his piece, he has been associating with some parties that are no better informed than he. Now back to the managers, they said very lit tie or nothing, but their money did what their tongues could uot do, They furnished the money to help the machine run.
 The Free Press further says: Our brother furth r goes on by saying that $40,000 was appropri- ated of the peoples money with out law or precedent. Our broth ther does not know that the mag istrates of the county appeared in court and voted for an appro- priation.
 We know that the magistrates of this county did inappropriate ($f0, ,000) they voted against an appropriation on the second day of court and a motion was made to adjourn, which the court oyer-ruled as revolutionary in it's nature. Every one knows that a motion to adjourn is always in order. But in this case, it was revolutionary. The court said the books had to be signed first. The next day after the ap- propriation of a few hundred dollars (not 0,000.00) had been made, one of his men moved to adjourn, but in order to appear right, he was allowed to hold the floor until the books were signed, not a5 the movers suggestion, but tt the courts suggestion. WhS didn't he make this suggestion to the man who moved to adjourn the day before? Because, he had not gotten what he was after.

A Good Recommendation.

T have noticed that the sale On Cham berlain s Stomach & Liver Tablets is almost invariably to those who have once used them, " says MT. J. Ii. Weber, a promi- uent druggist of Cascade, Iowa. What better recommendation could any medicine have than for people to call for it when again in need of such a remedy? Try them when you feel dull after eating, when you have bad tast in your mouth, feel bilious, have no ap- petite or when troubled with constipation and you are certain to be delighted with the prompt relief which they afford.

REMARKABLE CURE OF GROUP. A Little Bows Lie Saved.

I have a few words to say re- gardiug Cham berlain.s Cough Remedy. It saved my little boy $ fife and 1 feel that 1 cannot praise it enough. I bought a bottle of it from A. B. Steere of Goodwin, s. D., and when ] got home with it the poor baby could hardly breathe. I gave the med icine as directed every ten min utes until he threw up" and then 1 thought sure he was go- ing to choke to death. We had to pull the phlegm out of his mouth in great long strings. 1 am positive that if I had not got that bottle of cough medicine, my boy would not be on earth to- day.-JoEL DEMONT, Inwood, Iowa.

THE ANSWER.

The Free Press man pursues a very wise course in which to an swer the truths contained in the Eulogy. He begins in his bom- bastic style to class the Eulogy in the list of illft production.
 He studies over the situation and finds no way to refute the solemn declarations, and having at his command an abundance of ,idicule, he laughs and hoots the whole matter to scorn. But, in the distance, stand the menacing ghosts of Tom Patton, Martin Junction deal, Mayberry Smith and the Quorum court appropri- ation, haunting each honest citi- zen by day and by night.
 Referring to our article, our brother says: He refers (speak- ing of the News man) to every laudable enterprise in Augusta and classes it among skin games" and manipulated by a select few who he claims lord it over the rest of the poor devils in Augusta ........ However, # Cur brother would only inves- tigate the matter he would find out that these institutions are not owned and manipulated by the parties who control the coun- tvs affairs. .''
 We did not intend any skin game" insinuations. Every place has reasons to be proud of all legitimate business organizations. But some, of the individuals con nected with the institutions, were silent managers in the Tom Patton deal and the Martin Junction matter. Right here, it might be proper

The 3rd day one Mayberry Smith was so sick he could not be at court, but he was at Snapps with roll of greenback trying to trade horses. Several other esquires changed their minds sometime during the darkness of the night and were ready the next morning to make little ap- propriation. These are facts.
 We are not only opposed to chicanery at Augusta and Cot ton Plant, we are opposed to 1t at home and abroad which our brother very well knows.
 We believe in the officers of our county, state and nation being men of such unquestiondble character, that every father and mother would not be afraid for their son or daughter to follow in their footsteps. What can we promise the youth of our land when dirty schemers are set up as models for the rising genera tion to immitate? We should assert our democratic priveleges and oust the deceivers of our confidence. We should have men whose integrity is uinnspeachable

The Indians called rock crystal an
"unripe diamond" and until the begin
ming of the eighteenth century India
was thought to be the only land which
produced that precious stone. 1t was
not, therefore. until the discovery OF
India that the diamond was known to

''.iidactic history" of precious stones
was written, and In Piiny's time the
supply must have been plentiful, as be
wrote. I'VE drink out OF mass OF
gerus. and our drinking vessels are
formed of emeralds." We are also told
that Nero aided his weak sight by
spectacles made OF emeralds.
But il very difficult TO determine
whence oil the gems came, as discoy-
erers took care to leave no record. The
nations who traded In them were
afraid OF their whereabouts being
known, aud even the most ancient mer-
chants would not disclose any definite
locale. All sorts Of myths have ac-
cordingly sprung up concerning the
origin of gems. "Diamcud' was the
name given to youth who was turned
into the hardest and most brilliant or
substances TO preserve him from the
ills that flesh Ia heir To" Amethyst
was beautiful nymph beloved bS
Bacchus, but saved from him by Di'
