Duffy Buys Vollmer Paper

Judge B. P. Duffy, of this
place, closed a deal late last week
for the purchase of the news
paper plant and good will of the
Review at Vollmer and left Tues
day morning for that place to
take up his journalistic duties.
This makes the fourth attempt
for the Judge in the newspaper
field, he having been identified
with several papers in the middle
west in the earlier days of his
career. That he will make the
Review a readable paper and
worthy of it's town goes without
saying.
Mrs. Duffy will also leave for
Vollmer in few days and will
have charge of the Nezperce
telephone office at that point, her
place here being filled by Miss
Violet Blackwell, present opera
tor at Vollmer.
The many friends of Mr.. and
Mrs. Duffy are sorry to see them
leave Cottonwood but wish them
well in their new home.

ATLANTA SEWERS RAN
WHITE WITH MILK
When Milk Inspector Condemned
Lot of 1t.

Atlanta, May 3.-Atlanta's sewers
ran white with milk yesterday. 1t was
fresh, sweet milk, at that, with rich
cream on Topaz gallons of it, ruth
lessly poured in a rat-hole, after hav
ing been condemned by City Milk In
spector Harwell because it was above
the temperature required by the city
milk ordinance.
This ordinance requires that the
milk must be brought into the city at
a temperature not above SIS degrees
Since the warm weather began a great
deal of warm milk has been condemn
ed. but never in such large quantity as
yesterday.
A regular torrent of milk flowed
through the sewer leading from De-
catur street, and whitened the river
for hundreds of yards around the
sewers mouth. The sewer rats arc
probably still licking the cream of
their whiskers.

HOWELL-WATSON SCRAP
MAY NOW TAKE PLACE
As Result of Recent Presidential
Primary.

Atlanta, May 3.-Now that the smoke
of battle has cleared away, and the
Underwood victory stands out plain,
many interesting facts have come to
light in connection with the result.
Chief among these are the figures
which apparently indicate beyond
Question that Hon Thomas E. Watsons
old-time populist following swung
solidly into line behind him, backing
him in his fight for Underwood help
ing carry the state for the house lead
er and re-establishing Mr.. Watson as
strong political factor in Georgia.
On no other hyposethesis can pol.
iticians here explain the fact that
such counties as Ebert and Greene,
which have been sloidly in the Hoke
Smith columns, should have swung SO
completely over to the other faction.
They believe that Watsons old follow
ers have spoken. In the same way
they explain the Underwood strength
in the tenth and eighth congressional
districts, where Mr.. Watson has al
ways been strongest.
1t is felt here that Watson has the
unquestioned right to be included in
the states delegation to Baltimore,
and there are those who believe that
he may become its dominating infiu-
ence, for in its purely Georgia aspect
the Underwood victory was a Tom
Watson victory
This admission is not relished by
the Clark Howell faction on the I'm
derwood sic, and it is intimated that
schemes are already under way to
deprive Mr.. Watson, if possible, of his
share in the triumph.

An Open Letter.

Dexter, Mo-, Feb. TO- 1872
Mr.. John B. Smith, District Mgr, Mu-
tual Life ms. Co., of New York,
St, Louis, Mo.
Dear Sir: l am in receipt of your
favor of the Sth inst, enclosing draft
No. 2452 for $1,565SO, being the cash
dividend on my twenty-pay life policy
No 472,35O for $4,000, which was is
sued to me on November 10th, 1891,
by your company.
The cash dividend under this policy
for the first period of twenty years
was approximately 40 per cent. of the
entire amount of the premium paid in
by me. In addition to this cash divi-
dend of $1,565.SO, l have a paid-up
policy for life for $4,000, on which an
annual dividend will be paid to me for
life. To be exact, my profit for the
twenty years has been $2,5S5.S0, which
is approximately a profit of $107 per
cent.
Being an old banker, am astound-
ed at these amazing figures and re-
suits. No other insurance company
could accomplish such a feat as the
Grand Old Mutual Life Insurance
Company of New York, with its mag
nificent management | only regret
that l can't change all of my life pol

Any one who contemplates buying
insurance to protect those dear to
them and at the same time to secure
safe investment, should select only the
best, which is the Grand Old Mutual

Chicago, ILL.,, May 4.-Chief Justice

school last night in defense of the
laws Of the country. In part, he
said: 44,l3I..l. VIZ
For the first time in the history Of
the republic there exists among the
people widespread feeling of dissat-
isfaction with the administration OF
the law by the courts. There has been
bitter denunciation of some single
decision in the past, but never before
has there been such a general feeling
of distrust of the courts as whole
as prevails among portion of our
population today.
ANY method by which in some de-
liberate and orderly manner the decis-
ion supposed to be Objectionable may
be reviewed is far better than denun-
citation of the courts, even if such re-
view be by referendum of the people,

all about the Boogie-Oogie man. The
costume will be as original as the
story-song and the dolls that each
little girl will carry will also be of
her own manufacture. Each will
initiate a pickaninny and the result,
as shown in the single rehearsal so
far held. is literal scream. Nothing
quite so funny has ever been evolved
