stated this morning before leaving
for home that in addition to the s25.-
600 appropriated by the legislature
for the entertainment OF the G. A. r.
national encampment in Denver from
September TO o. it was expected a
like sum would be donated by the city
Of Denver. and it was believed as
much as both these sums combined
would be raised by private subscrip-
ton, which would bring the entertain
ment fund mp 70 100000, In regard
to the effort being made by the Du-
range board Of trade to have the del
egntes visit Durango. Col Brown said
that very likely the various railroads
would make low rates from Denver
all over The state. which would enable
great many of the visitors to see
The Rocky Mountains and many points
Of interest But the entertainment
committee could not stand the ex-
pense Of any excursions and only
who could afford 1t

count of Durango being so far away
we might get only few. comparative

Grating by the Wholesale.

Grccnville, October 2i.-Somc very
peculiar things have been brought to the
surface by the Investigating committee,
which went through some Of the county
offices last week with fine seive. The
work to which they especially turned
their attention was the methods which
have obtained in the offices of the road
overseers, and the manner in which the
work has been conducted by the over
sccrs, and some of the evidence adduced
by the investigation is strikingly near in
appearance to the other scandals which
have cropped out in various parts of the
State
1t is said that the examination develops
the fact that one ovcrsccr received pay
for building ID bridges in tho county,
when as matter of fact there were only
six such bridges built. Farther, $50 was
received for six days, work before the
work was ever done.

Letter to J. f. Craig, WaIhalla.

Dear Sir: When you see a we'll dressed
Young man, you like to say: "There's a
sample of my clothes. That man is
worth two of himself as he. was when
he came to me-"
We have the same feeling.-.Our paint
on house is worth twice as much as
old-fashion painters paint, lead and oil.
1t looks the same when first put on. In
three months it don't. In three years it
decidedly don't.
Lead-and-oil chalks off in three years
it is considered frst-ratc job that lasts
three years.
Devoe ead-and-zinc is about as good in
three years as it was the day the painter
loft it.
Zinc is the secret of it; no secret at all.
A good many painters know zinc; some
mix it in with their lead We grind it in
not a little: good deal.
It's the zinc and the grinding that does
it. You can't mix zinc by hand. We
grind it in by machinery.
Painters are finding us out, though
some painters are slow.
You know that it pays good man to
wear good clothes. How many custo-
mers have you that know it?
Yours truly,

ProhIbltionlsis Declare Against State Ticket.
1.-THE State. October 27.l


The State Executive Committee,
appointed under the resolution
adopted at conference here last
June, met under the call of the
chairman, G. A. Smith, of Timmons-
vile, last night in the reading room
of the Y. Nj. G. A. The result of
the meeting is given in the resolu-
tions adopted, declaring against the
nomination of State ticket.
The meeting was called to order
by Mr.. Smith, who stated the object
of the meeting and gave the outline
of the resolution under which he
had issued the call, the resolution
providing for the appointment of the
committee which was to call State
convention Of probibitionists.
After Mr.. Smiths remarks Col. r.
Il. Jaynes, of Oconee, was made
secretary of the committee.
There was considerable discussion
OF several resolutions brought be-
fore the committee and the following,
introduced by G. @. Featherstone, of
Laurens, was finally adopted
Resolved, That it is the sense of
this meeting that it would be unwise
to put in the field State prohibition
ticket
Resolved further, That it is the
sense of this meeting that the effort
ought to be made to elect members
of the General Assembly and execu-
tive and county officers who are in
accord with our views.
Resolved further, That we ought
to organize for the purpose of en-
forcing the law in the counties where
prohibition prevails, and to foster
and encourage the sentiment in other
counties.
Resolved, That when we adjourn
we do adjourn subject to the call of
the president and that committee
man be appointed by the president
for any county not having an APP
pointment; and that any appointee
not being able to attend be empow-
cred to appoint his substitute.
After the adoption of these reso-
luti0ns the meeting adjourned.

earnest, heartfelt speech, which fol.
lowed, he won all hearers. He is a
man of such magnetism and real
power that he seems above efforts of
oratory. His voice, not loud, but SO
penetrating, and his enunciation 80
distinct, that, without apparent effort,
it reached to the utmost bounds of
the multitude. There were touch
ing passages in bis allusion to his
mothers memory, and patriotic fire
when he announced himself half
Southern, and distinctly character
.istic sentiments when he looked over
the sea of humanity and declared
himself entirely satisfied with both
the quantity and quality of the chill
dren present.
The brief talk over he re-entered
the carriages, with the committee in
charge, and was driven to the Pres
byterian church, where a reception
was held. Only a hundred cards
were issued to this, and we were
among the fortunates.
Mr.. Stribling and Senator Clay
stood with President and Mrs. Roose-
welt near the front of the church, and
each guest, as his name was pro-
nounced, shook hands and passed on.
Only those with cards were allowed
to enter the building, but before half
the guests had passed in line the
hour for leaving was at hand, and
with word of regret, and cordial
goodbye the President and his party
were gone.
Of MIR. Roosevelt's personal APP
pearance | need say no word. Those
of you who have seen the printed
likeness have seen him as he is, lack
ing only the magnetism and vital
spark that makes him real. OF Mrs.
Roosevelt | have never seen a print
that does justice to the real woman.
She remained in her carriage during
the speeches and it was only at the
church that one saw her well. She
wore a beautiful gown of gray
tlecked with black, while trimmings
of lace softened the bodice. The
hat of gray, with its pink roses, lent
a charm to the fine intellectual face
of its wearer.
BY $50 the Presidents visit to
Roswell had passed into a pleasant
memory, of all who took part in it
will delight to talk to their children
and their children's children.
Old "Uncle William" and "Maum
Gracie," servants of his mothers
youth, were the only black faces we
saw in the throngs of people, and no
one grudged them their happiness
and pride in "Miss Mittie's son." for
they are veritable ante bellum char
acters.
The motto which adorned the
Chattahoochec bridge as we drove
out of Roswell, "May pleasant memo
ries abide" passes from wish to
reality.

GREAT
NORTHERN
WILL BUILD
Liable to Be Railroad Building
War the Coming Season

Omaha, Neb., Jan. 13.-A railroad
building war. for Nebraska and the
Middle West is in sight for next sum-
mer should the Great Northern railroad
carry out its announced plan to build
two connections with the Burlington
in Nebraska this spring. The first Of
the projected line is orun from Sioux
City to Omaha, and the second extern
sion from O'Neill to Thedford, Neb.,
giving the Burlington-G Northern
combination the short line between
Denver and Minneapolis and Duluth,
that being an invasion Of Northwest
territory. Well-informed. railroad men
are of the opinion that this will cause
the Northwestern to extend the Has
tings line into Denver to retaliate
against the Burlington, and the Union
Pacific will be drawn into the fight.

Drowned Man Found.

Olympia, Wash, Jan. 13.-The body
of Thomas O'Connor, cashier at Perci-
vap's dock, in this city, was found ly-
ing downward, in the bay near the end
of the wharf on which he was en-
ployed.
Mr.. O'Connor had been missing since
New Years day, and was last seen
about 1880 in the evening in the vicin-
ity of the dock. He was sober in hab-
its. There are no marks of violence as
yet discovered, and no reason is as
signed for suicide. That he accidental
ly fell from the dock is the only theory
advanced.
O'Connor people are known to live
lin Portland, where it is said he was
once in very good financial circumstan-
ces. He was educated in Europe, and
for ten years was consul in Portland for
Belgium. He came to Olympia eight
years ago to manage an oyster COM
pany's business. Mr.. O'Connor leaves
a family. An infant son was born since
his disappearance. An autopsy will
be held tomorrow.

oATARRH OF THE STOMACH.
A Pleasant, Simple, but Safe and Eff
fectual Cure for It.

Catarrh of the stomach has long
been considered the. next thing to in
durable. The usual symptoms are a
full or bloating sensation after eating,
accompanied sometimes with sour or
watery risings, a formation of gases,
causing pressure on the heart and
lungs and difficult breathing, head
aches, tickle appetite, nervousness and
a general played out, languid feeling.
There is often a foul taste in the
mouth, coated tongue and if the in
terror Of the stomach could be seen it
would show a Shiny, inflated condition
The cure for this common and obstin-
ate trouble is found in a treatment
which causes the food to be readily,
thoroughly digested before it has time
to ferment and irritate the delicate mu-
cous surfaces of the stomach. To Sc
cure prompt and healthy digestion is
the one necessary thing to do and when
normal digestion is secured the catarrh-
al condition will have disappeared.
According to DR.. Harlanson the
safest and best treatment is to use af-
ter each meal tablet, composed of
Diastase, Aseptic Pepsin, a little Nux,
Golden Seal and fruit acids. These
tablets can now be found at all drug
stores under the name of Stuart's Dys-
pepsia Tablets, and not being a patent
medicine can be used with perfect safe
ty and assurance that healthy appetite
and thorough digestion will follow their
regular use after meals.
Mr.. R. s. Workman, Chicago, Ills,
writes: "Catarrh is local condition
resulting from a neglected cold in the
head, whereby the lining membrane of
the nose becomes infamed and the
poisonous discharge therefrom passing
backward into the throat reaches the
stomach, this producing catarrh of the
stomach. Medical authorities pro-
scribed for me. for three years for
catarrh of the stomach without cure
but today I am the happiest of men
after using only one box of Stuart s
Dyspepsia Tablets. / cannot find ap-
propriate words to express my good
feeling. have found flesh, appetite
and sound rest from their use"
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets is the
safest preparation as well as the sim
plest and most convenient remedy for
any form of indigestion, catarrh of
stomach, biliousness, sour stomach,
heart burn and bloating after meals.
