"Man wonts but little, hero be low" was scarcely written of money. The Alliance Is the most Impor tant factor in European politics,? tho Triple Alliance. The Clinton Gazette, having de clared aguinst the Sub-treasury, may expect some wooden headed Solon to proclaim that it has been subsidized. It is estimated that at least 90 por cent of tho whole cotton crop this fall will be covered with jute. ?Augusta Chronicle. How much, Chronicle, will bo covered with lions? Tho Buck-eyo Democrats go into the ring well heeled; tariff for rev enue only, free silver, tax on big In comes, no force bill, but local self government?somohody is going to bo gaffed. In Ohio tho law requires each political party to have a dovlco for their tickets at each election. The democrats choso in their rffi ~"; convention that noblo bird tho '?rooster." That's tho cock that rattled tho McKinley "heelers" last fall. Marching; Through Georg/In. Our caption indicates what is going on across tho Savannah. Fifteen thousand of Georgia's gal lant sons with tho old rebel yell shouted themselves hoarse at Athens on Wednesday last, glori fying Gen. Weaver, tho Green backer, and sockless Jerry Simp son, apostle of the "people's party," both of tho "wild and wooly" west. The crusade is preached through all tho wide border of Georgia. Gen. Weaver calls himself a Jef fersonlan Democrat?and the Geor gia crackers make tho welkin ring. Tho whole thing is exquisitely interesting. Right down the throuts of Joo Drown and Jno. B, Gordon they proclaim that they and their constituency havo been frauds, and actors in a thleivng game of politics, time wiiereof the memory of man runneth not to tho contrary: Well! Till tho advent of these preachers of a revised democratic gospel, wo had thought that tho Gracchi lived in Georgia?and that tho souls of those two immortal Romans dwelt in tho bodies of Alex. Stephens and Joseph E. Brown. "What fools we mortals be" sure enough. Wo have been mistaken, misled, deceived, debauched. We beg a thousand pardons. Kansas and Iowa aro the homo of true de mocracy and we are to get it un adulterated, pure and undefiled from tho throats of those intensi llod Westerners as echoed over the yellow Savannah. They call fcr, ask for, shout for, and howl for a now party! Calhoun, Benton, Toombs and Hayne were fakes and robber barons. Tom Watson and Sam Small is tho ticket. Third, ?next. Will None of Our Daniels Come to Judgment? Tho Alliance excitement has brought some very brainy mc.i into prominence. Sonator Pfeffer und Congressman Simpson, of Kan sas, Congressmen Livingstone and Watson, of Georgia, and many others suddenly raised to tho Nat ional Legislature, have at least convinced tho public since their election that thoy are men of moro than odlnary intellectual calibre. However impractical their Ideas 6h iho Sub-treasury and othor ex tremo demands of Iho Alliance, they present them with such bril liancy as to coerce tho interest of readers and thinkers. o. iytH >\YCi\ XuYclina j"b/y.>a b Of Calhoun und McDufiie") Stack liottso alono of tho new found gen iuses lias attempted to throw light on tho great issues and tho seed, Which ho sowed in Texas, doesn't SCOm to havo taken root.

"Nearly ovorybody recognized that tho earth could not keep pare with tho sun, but the Michigan people would not acknowledge ,this, and positively refused to adopt standard time.

No oilier envestment in the world is so absolutely safe, or con. sidering the protection, more pro fitable than a life or endowment policy in The Mutual Life Insur ance Company of New York, for the following reasons : ist. The contrccl is based upon a natural and universally operating law of mortality, backed by the good faith and continued payments of the largest number (182,013111 1889) of carefully selected lives insured in any company on the re serve fund system. 2nd. The Mutual Life lias the largest reserve fund of any insur ance company in the world?being now over $147,000,000. 3rd. During the forty-seven years of its business, its receipts from interest alone have paid all death claims and left a surplus therefrom of $11,315,901 69. 4U1. Its interest rccciiiis^navc exceeded ail expenses of manage ment by the enormous sum of $55, 447,246.89. 5U1. Its annual income in 1889 exceeding all the requirements for paying death claims, matured en dowments, annuities, surrender values, dividends to policy-holders and expenses (in all amounting to $21,629,502.61) by nearly ten mil lions of dollars, or exactly $9,981, *33'38? 6th. The Mutual Life lias al ready paid to and accumulated for its policy-holders ovci $435,000, 000, which is double the transac tion of any other company in the world.

C. Apr. 10, '91 MR. J. T. HARRIS, Demi Sin:?My en gagements are such that I have not time to call tho attontiuu of ;..?di eai profession to the cases that might ho collected from tho mass that have accumulated during the thirty-eight (38) 'years of constant use of tho waters of your Lithia Spring-.?; The waters of tho i Jl liia Spring uro odorless and colorless, frco from salinary taste, rather palatable. When taken in a considerable quantity they do not nauseate, purgo or produce any feeling of discomfort . I find from an analysis of tho waters they contain cloride sodium, carbonate potash, carbonate soda, carbonate lithia, carbonate iron and sulphate magnesia. The waters act directly upon tho mucous coates of the Ktomuch and alimentary canals they are powerfully alterative and tonic. They are soothing to inilamed or irritated surfaces. They react upon tho blood, chatig? Ingiii it from acid to alkaline. In indigestion, catarrh of stom ach and gastralgia, suppplemcntcd will? a proper, diet they are a cer tain eure. Tho action upon the kidneys is marked. Tho sodium, potash, soda and lithia are the best solvents of uric acid, all calculi of an acid character, whether bilcury or ciptic arc steadily dissolved, 1 am conlldent that tho profession will find it very useful in cases where tblF class of water is re quired. Respectfully, J. q. Wilbur., M. P. Anderson, S. 0., Feb. 24, ?01. MR. J.T. HARRIS, dear Sin:?I return bottles to be filled with your Lithia Water. Have used one crate and feel much improved.

I tried a number of remedies without any relief. Some times the pain in my back was so scvero that I had to have help to get up when sitting down. Some of my friends asked me to try your mineral wator, I did so, and the result was most gratifying. I felt relief after the first day. After using it a week I was entirely well. It has boon some six weeks since I first used it, and my general health is greatly im proved. Too much cannot be said in its praise. It is undoubtedly the best water that I know of, Yours Respectfully. D. M. PATTON Cross Hill, S. 0, Feb'y l, ?01. MR. J. T.

She continued to use and sinco that tinio sho bus not been troubled at all. Very Respectfully, John W.Turner. mountville, s. c., Jan. 20. '01. MR, J. T. HARRIS, Deau Sir:?About six years ago my daughter became alliicted with a cancer of tiro nose, Nothing wo did prevented its spreading. Physicians finally told nie they could do nothing further. She bad no appetite and was re duced to a mere shadow. I conclu ded to try your Lithia Water and to my surprise in a short time she began to improve in health and the cancer ceased to spread. Sho is now using your excellent water constantly and is improving all the time. Respectfully, C. L. Watts. Laurenh, S.O., Mar. 16. '01 MR. J. T. HARRIS, Dear Sir:?For some lime I suffered intensely with gravel affect Ion. I tried every remedy that was obtainable, but without any relief. Had given up hopes almost of being cured. Some ono recommended the Harris Lithia Water and I tried it faith fully und was cured. After using one case of the water I passed live or six gravels. I can not say too much in its praise.
