Stiff Neck.

Stiff neck is caused by rheumatism
of the muscles of the neck. It is us-
ually confined to one side, or to the
back of the neck and one side. While
it is often quite painful, quick relief
may be had by applying Chamberlain's
Liniment Not one case of rheuma-
tism in ten requires internal treat
ment When there is no fever and no
swelling as in muscular and chronic
rheumatism Chamberlain Liniment
will accomplish more than any inter-
nal treatment. For sale by Whitwell

The people shall vote in each district
for delegates as we'll as for the candi-
dates Each candidate shall have one
vote or delegate for every 10 votes cast
and fraction over five, but the vote
really cast shall determine. That is to
say, If district elect 10 delegates and
the district has votes for any given
candidate the delegates would be en-
titled to one-half vote. Whereas, a
district with 100 votes for any given
candidate will be entitled to 10 votes.
The meaning is to give each candidate
his actual strength in the present elec-
tion, not hampered by any previous
election.
We further recommend that all dem
ocrats entitled to vote for members OF
the General Assembly be eligable to
vote in said election, and for want of
time this committee is unable to for
mulate rules and regulations for said
election and recommend that COM
mittee be appointed and report at the
next meeting held for the Judiciary
Convention to prescribe rules to gov
ern same election.

The Minority report was the follow
ing:
The Democratic Executive Commit
tee, after having passed resolution
endorsing delegated primary eIec-
tion, providing for the election of
county candidates and legislative can
didates, and providing for the election
of delegates by primary and nomina-
ting candidates by primary for all the
offices, a minority report from your
committee which was appointed to ar
range plan under your direction, is
here presented, we beg to submit the
following, to wit:
That all candidates for County Office
and Legislative Office to be voted for in
each county precinct at a regular
primary election to be fixed, and that
when any candidate shall carry dis
trict by majority that he shall have
that entire vote and that Bryan vote
be used for basis. That for every 25
votes or fraction thereof one delegate
shall be voted for and that the vote
for each candidate shall be one vote

DEMOCRATIC MAYOR MAKING
GOOD.

Mayor Gaynor, Of New YOrk,is Civ
ing that city genuinely Democratic
Observation-Disclosures a Tammany ad-
ministration, for there is a great gulf
between what Tammany and Democ-
racy signify-with j"dicious economy
in the administration Of it's business
affairs in all departments, and with
greater measure Of protection for the
rights Of citizens than they have en-
joyed in many years. The indiscrimi-
nate clubbing BY policemen, that
marked the previous administration,
has disappeared, the police under
stand that there is a distinction be-
tween duty properly performed and
persecution for personal or political
purposes, and finally the right of a
man 10 be regarded as innocent until
proved guilty has been sustained in
an order prohibiting the photograph
ing Of prisoners until after they have
been tried and convicted.
In New York, as in many other
large cities, the police have gradually
usurped powers that do not belong
to them, usurped and exercised them
in a most tyrannical fashion One Of
the prerogatiyes they have assumed
has been that Of photograp hing men
and women accused of crimes, placing
the photos in the rogues' gallery, and
retaining them there even after tho
accused may have been acquitted.
Efforts to break up this practice
heretofore have been Of no avail Pho
tographs have been defianffy retained
in the rogues' galleries after acquittals
and only after hard fought legal bat
ties have those possessed of ample
means been able to secure orders de-
stroying such mute evidence of al
LEGGED criminal action on their part. For
the poor there has been no redress
whatever, nothing but contemptuous
Indifference to their grievances.
Mayor Gaynor has peremptorily
remedied this abuse. Hereafter he
has ordered, no person is to be photo
graphed and measured unless con-
victed Of some felony. For such a
stand for the rights Of citizens, 10
matter how poor or humble, Mayor
Gaynor deserves the plaudits Of the
public. 1t is qualification to note that
a man of nerve and Of true Democrat
ic principles is at the helm in the
metropolis. His conception Of pub
lie office is the correct one. 1t may not
lead him, as a similar conception on
the part of Grover Cleveland did, to
the presidency, but it will enshrine
him in the esteem of right-thinking
men in general and serve to perman-
emily break up nefarious practices
that were a disgrace to democratic
form of government.

HAVE you REGISTERED! If NOT,
WHY NOT?

There remain but six days in which
to register, six days during which you
can enter your name on the list of
qualified voters and secure the right
to vote in the approaching state pri1
mary, to assist in the selection of the
senator and representatives from Sum
ter county and of the next governor of
Georgia.
It makes no difference what your
factional affiliations are it is a duty
you owe to yourself, to the County and
to the State to qualify so that you can
exercise the privilege of voting.
TIE six days viii pass quickly. To
put off registering until tomorrow, or
the next day, or with the idea that you
will attend to this important matter on
next Monday or Tuesday is dangerous.
If you do not go and register today
you are apt to overlook it later on
and lose your vote.
There are probably three hundred
white citizens Of Sumter county who
are not yet registered who are in dan
ger of being shut out from the ballot
box. Two hundred or more of ITEM
live in Americas, within a few minutes
walk of the Court House. with abso-
Iutely no excuse for n3t irving the
matter prompt attention. Are you one
of them?
1t is estimated from the returns SO
far received that to bring the regis
tration up to what it was two years
ago it will be necessary for $4,000 men
to register during the next six days.
The recent county fight in Sumter
stimulated the registration locally, but
there are still fifteen to twenty per
cent of the voters whose names are
not on the books.
The man who does not appreciate
the right of citizenship sufficiently to
register has no right to criticise or
complain about the administration of
public affairs. He is neglecting a vital
duty and for that neglect he alone is
responsible. And the strange thing
about the neglect to register is that
frequently those who fail to do so are
men of high intelligence and large
property and business interests.
Register to-day.

MINORFTRAI

II | could just attune my harp
To sing the peoples songs,
To voice their sorrows and their joys,
Their troubles and their wrongs,
l wouldn't care who cut EN- loose
With songs sublime and grand,
But so refined that no one could
Their meaning understand.
If / could be the ragtime muse,
Throw grammar 10 the breeze
And let the meter run itself
However it might please.
Just so it touched the common man
And reached TIE peoples heart
wouldn't care for polish or
The finer points Of art.
If every urchin On the street
Would juggle with my tunes,
If kitchen girls would Groom them Ger
Mid kitties. pots and spoons;
IF pretty creatures who stenog
Would hum them Ger The keys,
wouldn't care what critics said
Or whom / miglt displease.
Yes. let me sing the peoples songs
In hating lines and crude,
Not flying high above their head,
But for their every mood.
The simple song Of home and love,
The lOWly, humble strain
That sort of hits them where they live
And dances through the brain.

The second mile shows the thOrns.
When banners ara flung 20 TIE swing
Of the breeze
And the clarinet tr5lls
It's low puIsing call through antphon-
les,
Then the runners heart thrills
With he JOY Of the race, that stretches
SO fair
Down Arcadlan aisle. An who would
not dare
Through crash Of the music and fash
OF the steel
To enter the contest with true heart
and leal,
and it seemed chiId's play
For the first mile away,
The blood Of the runner exul-antly
flows;
He has made the first nile.
Al the second milestone more slowly
he goes
With less confident smile.
He tignte1s his girdle-nO place now
for rest
Not here waits ne guerdon, the grail
Of his quest
The waving Of banners is lost to his
view
The crash Of the music IS far distant,
too.
Then To win, Or-renOunce2-
lis the second mile counts,
On the threshold Of youth. in the glow
Of romance
Where the dream gardens lie,
Ana chivalry beckons. Where visions
enhance
Shades Of knigh- hood near by
The seeker Of fame wins the first mile
with ease
An. TIE sages were wrong in their
stern prophecies
OF the danger and doubt.
On his forehead the laurel he already
feels
And visits not the turning the mile
stone cOnceals-
And the first mile is OUT
soon he misses the fragrance Of fow-
ers by the way
And the song of tie lark
Is husheI in silence. The shimmering
day
Has already grown dark.
Ere the fullness OF noon His heart
thrills with fear
I'm the gathering gloom, as OF enemies
near.
So he leaves the first mile where sweet
roses grew
/ To enter tire second, where the bTiers
pierce through.
To proceed, oT-renounce2 ?
How the second mile counts!

How seldom, friend, a good great man

Honor or wealth with all his worth
and pains
1t sounds like stories from the world
Of spirits
If any man obtain that which he mer-

Or any merit that which he obtains
For shame, dear friend renounce this
canting strain!
What wouldst thou have a good great
man obtain?
Place-titles- salary-a gilded chain
Or thrones of corses which his sword
hath slain?-
Greatness and goodness are not
means, but ends,
Hath he not always treasures, always
friends.

And 6hree firm friends, more sure than
