THE rHAw-wHIrE TRAGEDY.

From the Savannah News.
The Thaw- White tragedy in New
York is one of the most sensational
incidents of its kind that has occurred
for many years, on account of the
wealth of the slayer and the prOfos-
sional prominence of his victim.
There may or may not have been a
basis for the reason Thaw gave for
the act at time of shooting, but it seems
that if he had constituted himself the
agent of retributive justice he would
not have condOned folly on one side
while dealing death on the other.
The career of Thaw, short though it
has been so far, has been marked
with sensation and apparently hand
icapped by his possession of too
much money. 1t is not every man, or
woman, who possesses the native wit to
use money wisely. Too many young
men, and women, are spoiled, and
their lives ruined, by the command OF
richrS. 1t is a law of nature that
mankind shall work for a living. 1t
is an old and true proverb that the
devil finds work for idle hands to do.
The luxurious and idle rich are con-
stantly thrown in the way of tempta-
tons that are unknown to the work

sorrrH SHOULD NOT COMPLAIN.

Commenting on the south's con-
demnation of the Chicago meat pack
ers. the Washington Post says;
''If at any time southern towns, CIT
les and communities have suffered
either in their stomachs or their pock-
cts because of the high price or the
unwholesome character of Chicago
meat products they have only them
selves to blame. There has never
been the slightest reason why they
should not feed themselves from their
own herds, focks, fields, dairies and
barnyards. The south is rich in farm
ing and grazing lands, and the inhao-
itants thereof can raise beef cattle,
sheep, hogs, poultry and vegetables OF
the very finest quality and in unlimit-
ed quantity if they choose. Why
need they go to Chicago, Kansas City,
Omaha or any other distant market
for food which they themselves can
produce? And if they persist in pol
icy so unnecessary and so IMPROVE
dent they mighthave the grace to real
ize that it is their fruit and refrain
from condemnation of others. The
pastures of the south can turn out as
good beef and mutton as the stock
yards of Chicago can. Southern
farms are capable of furnishing as
high class butter, milk, eggs, ETC., as
anv farm in Iowa or Kansas"

A Square Deal

Is assured you when you buy one Of DR..
Pierce'S family medicineS-fOr all the in
gradients entering into them are printed
on the bOttle-wrapperS and their formula
are atteSted under oath as being complete
and correct. You know just what you are
paying for and that the ingredients are
gathered from Natures laboratory being
selected from the most valuable native
medicinal roots found growing in our
American forests and while potent tOcure
are perfectly harmless even to the most
delicate women and children. Not drop
of alcohol enters into their composition.
A much better agent is used both for eX-
tracing and preserving the medicinal
principles used in them, viZ.-pure triple
refined glycerine. This agent possesses
intrinsic medicinal properties of its own,
being a most valuable anti-Septic and anti
ferment, nutritive and soothing demul-
cent.
Glycerine plays an important part in
DR.. Pierce'S Golden Medical Discovery in
the cure of indigestion, dyspepsia and
weak stomach, attended by sour risings,
heartburn, foul breath, coated tongue,
poor appetite, gnawing feeling in stOm-
ach, biliOuSneSs and kindred derange-
mentS of the stomach. liver and bowels.
Besides curing all the above distressing
ailments the Golden Medical Discovery"
is specific for all diseases of the mucous
membranes, as catarrh, whether of the
nasal passages or of the stomach bowels
or pelvic organs. Even in its alternative
stages it will yield to this sovereign rem
edy if its use be persevered in. In Chronic
Catarrh of the Nasal passages, it is well,
while taking the Golden Medical Dis
cOvery" for the necessary constitutional
treatment, to cleanse the passages freely
two or three times a day with DR.. Sage'S
Catarrh Remedy. This thorough course
Of treatment generally cures the worst
cases.
In coughs and hoarseness caused by bron-
chial, throat and lung affections, except con-.
sumption in its advanced stages the Golden
Medical Discovery" is a most efficient rem
edy, especially i'll those obstinate. hang-on
coughs caused by irritation and congestion of
the bronchial mucous membranes. The Dis
covery is not so good for acute coughs aris-
ing from sudden colds. nor must it be ex-
pected to cure consumption in its advanced
stages medicine will do that-but for all
the obstinate. chronic coughs. which. if neg
lected or badly treated lead up to consump-
ton. it is the best medicine that can be taken

THE GOVERNORS MESSAGE.

THE GOVERNORS MESSAGE.
Governor Terrell's message to the
Georgia legislature, which convened
in Atlanta last Wednesday, ranks
with the strong papers of the states
executive.
The message, which was more than
five thousand words in length, dealt
fully with all questions that are to
come before the present body OF law
makers. On nearly every measure II
makes some recommendation.
Governor Terrell gave more atten-
ton to schools than to any other sub
iect. He is particularly impressed
with the necessity for education along
agricultural lines, and advised that
an appropriation sufficient to erect
agricultural buildings at the State
University be made. He points oct
that the prosperity of the state is
largely due to agriculture, and should
be encouraged in every way. Thai
he is right in this matter but few will
deny.
In connection with the proposed az
ricultural college at the State UniVer-
sity he believes there ought to be an
agricultural school established IN
each congressional district and If 1t is
thought not to be advisable to have SO
many agricultural schools supported
at public expense he thinks there
ought to be at least three such schools,
one in the northern part of the state,
one in the central part and another in
the southern part. There is now one
in the northern part.
OF course he doesn't overlook the
importance of the common schools.
He advises Improvement of the pub
lie school system by revision of the
laws constituting it; an amendment
comforting more authority upon
boards of education relative to school
libraries and and school buildings;
a change in the scholastic year from
the calendar year in order to better
the system of paying teachers; con-
stitutional amendment so that all
property with in the limits Of a
school district may be subject to local
taxation.
Among the principal recommends
tions made by the governor are the
following:
A new system for valuing property
for taxation.
An amendment to the constitution
creating court of appeals for the re-
lief of the supreme court.
Comforting upon the railroad com
mission authority to require the issue
of interchangeable mileage books by
the railroads and to fix the terms and
conditions under which the books
NAV be sold.
The enactment of law taxing in
heritances.
A training school for the feeble
minded and detective children in the
state sanitarium, and provision for
improved conditions in the school for
the deaf and the academy for the
blind.
The supplying of standards of
weights and measures to all counties
not already supplied.
A repayment of the loan of $1,000
used for the payment of pensions.
A renewal of the recommendations
made in the message of year ago as
to election laws, immigration, confed-
crate flags and misdemeanor con-
victs.
Altogether, it is very likely that the
present term of the legislature will be
one of the busiest and most interest
ing session of recent years.

STEPPING OVER THE LIMIT.

About the rumor that President
Roosevelt was going to Panama, the
New York Sun is reminded that some
other presidents have been out to sea,
but none has as yet stepped upon a
strictly foreign shore. AS President
Roosevelt set up the republic OF Pana-
ma, perhaps he thinks it is no harm.
President Cleveland went beyond the
three-mile limit when making a trip
in f. G. Benedict's yacht When
President Benjamin Harrison visited
FL Paso, Tex, in April, 1891, he was
met by the governor of the Mexican
state of Chiahuhua, who invited him
to cross over the Rio Grande and put
foot on Mexican soil at Juarez, but
Mr.. Harrison declined. In 1901 when
President Mckinley was on his way to
California he stopped over Sunday at
Ell Paso, but declined to cross the
river, although all the male members
of his party did so.
