New Building Occupied.

September Ii, 1882, the combined high
schools, now called the Washington High
School, moved into the new building. Mr.
Paul was made principal. with the follow
ing. assistants: Messrs. Frank Angel, T. h
Rockford, F. R. Lane, G. R. Israel and
Misses NJ. A. Scott, F. NJ. Crane, L. NJ
Dame and NJ. D. Browne. A third year
was at once added to the course although
the year before q few pupils had awaited
themselves of the privileges OF returning
for third or postgraduate year
The school grew rapidly in numbers and
once. and very soon became an important
influence in the life of the school Gradu-
ates OF the school entered without diff
Guilty the foremost colleges In the courl-
try, and by the excellence of their work
won for the Washington High School an
enviable reputation. At West Point and
Annapolis Washington High School cadets
from the first took Oh rank.
The course of study was added to from
time to time to meet the educational neces-
sites OF the pupils and to satisfy the con-
stantiy increasing entrance requirements OF
the colleges. In September 1885 under the
supervision of Mr.. r. H KoyI instructor II,
physics. manual training was introduced
Important changes we're also made IN rules
governing entrance and promotion. The
method OF taking from the grammar school
entrance examination continued until 1885,
The pupils who entered in September OF
that year came upon the Recommendation
of their eighth grade teacher examinations
still being given those pup Is who entered

Miss Anna Bushfeld. has
departed for Ohio to attend
college.
Miller and Hand county
should be largely repre-
sented at Huron tomorrow
and next day.
Reports are that some
very poor theatrical shows
are already on the road
the members not walking
either.
The night train west is
late every night now on ac-
count of the fair which ac-
counts for the east bound
train in the morning being
late.
The fair at Huron is
booming. If you go there
for the night do your sleep
ing before you start or save
it until you come back un-
less you can doze standing
as there are no beds to be
had there so they say.
The case against John
Young, charged with the
Todd murder, will be rec
commended by the state to
the judge for dismissal. 1t
was continued from the
spring term with the view
of. more evidence develop
ing, but none has been Sc
cured.

The chances are against
a man succeeding in poh-

is an attack on railroads.
The people Of this new
state want more railroad
extension and to get it a
policy of moderation to-
wards these forerunners OF
civilization must be shown.

: What sulphur Does.

For the Human Body IN Health and
ss plsease. 4 n
The mention Of sulphur will recall to
many Of US the early days. when our
mothers and grandmothers, gave US our
daily dose Of sulphur and molasscs every
spring and fall. N Els \ 8t2 "A II s5$
E 1t was the universal spring and fall
S"blood purifier tonic and cure-all, and
mind you, this old-fashoned remedy was
not without merit
The idea was good, but the remedy was
crude and r,npnutablc, and Il large guam
THY had to be taken to get uny effect.
& Nowadays We get all tho bencflcial8ef eff
fects OF sulphur III II palatable,E concen-i
tratcl form, SO that IA single grain Is lar
more effective than Il tablespoonful of
the crude sulphur. is
In recent years research and expert
ment have proven that tho best sulphur
for medical use Is that obtained from
Calcium Calcium Sulphdc). and sold In
drug stores under the name CT Stuart's
Calcium Wafcrs. They are small choco-
late coated pellets, and contain the active
INC dicnal principle Of sulphur In q highly
concentrated, effective form.
Few people are aware OF the value OF
IN restoring ana
maintaining bodily vigor and health; sui
phur acts directly on the liver and excrn-
tory organs and mlrfles and enrlches the
blood by the prompt elimination OF waste
material
Our grnndmothers knew this when they
dosed us With sulphur and mOlasses every
| spring and fall. hut the crudity and I'M
| purity of ordinary flowers OF sulphur
! were often worse than the disease. and
cannot compare with the modern conccn-
| trated preparation OF sulphur, OF which
| Stuart's Calcium Wafers is undoubtedly
| the best and most widely used.
They are the natural antidote for llyor
4 and kidney troubles, and cure cnnstipa-
| tlon and purify the blood in Il way that
often surprises patient and physician

MIR. HALL THE RACE.

Interest in the gubernatorial cam
paign has been heightened in the past
Jew days by the statement of Hon.
Joseph H. Hall of Bibb that he is IN
the race. He ventured to add that the
people are becoming wearied with the
premature campaign, and that he will
not hasten his official announcement.
Mr.. Hall has long been an inhuen-
tial member of the Georgia house of
representatives, and his legislative
record is his platform. 1t may be
summed up as follows: All foreign
railroad companies must be chartered
in the state; all corporations must re-
turn their taxes to a board of assess
ors, consisting of the comptroller
general and two other state house Off
GERS; transportation and telegraph
companies must not grant passes or
franks to any state officer: children
under twelve years of age shall be
prohibited from working in factories
in this state the negro should not be
disfranchised; lobbyists must register
in Georgia. These issues have been
pretty we'll threshed out in and out of
the legislature. Mr.. Hall has discuss
ed them on the stump time and again.
AS the Savannah Press says, Mr..
Hall is an able man and deserves we'll
at the hands of the people. He is a
fearless. honest and popular man, and
will have following in every section
of Georgia sufficiently large to give
him a prominent place among the
gubernatorial possibilities.
The Dawson news. (Dawson, Ga.) 1889-current, 1905-11-08
FOOL DEMOCRATS.

The suggestions coming so voluoly,
even violently, from certain demo-
cratic sources that Mr.. Roosevelt will
be the democratic nominee for presl-
dent in 1908 are undoubtedly the most
unexcelled sycophancy and foolhardy
ventures that have ever been voiced.
Those who advocate such policy as
a trump card ought to be put in the
deck themselves as jacks, and dealt
out of Office held under democratic
majOrities.
Indeed, it would be pretty trick,
To turn it would be to overturn every
principle of manhood. 1t is beautiful
logic. "We'll nominate Mr.. Roose-
Welt, they say, land the republicans
will be compelled to nominate Mr..
Roosevelt, and Mr.. Roosevelt will be
elected" A democratic and republi-
can fusion is bound to triumph. We
believe it was General Grant who said
the democrats might be depended on
to act the fool at the right time-for the
republicans.
