IMPORTANT TO SUBSCRIBERS IN
ARREARS.
Parties in the city who are in arrears for
theirsubscriptions to the Daily Enq.jikeh-
Sun, and who desire to receive the paper
after the first of January, are requested to
settle their accounts before that date. This
is essential to the proper conduct of busi
ness, and the necessity of it is apparent to
every reasonable man. People do not
expect their clothers, grocers, or
butchers, or shoe dealers, to furnish
them articles they may desire month after
month without payment, and the same
rule applies to newspapers. Every account
due should be settled up before the open
ing of a new year. We cannot afford to
furnish the paper for nothing. There are
but comparatively few o? our subscribers
in arrears now, and we are desirous of
starting the New Year with all subscrip
tions settled to date, and hence this no
tice.
We propose to give gratis to every sub
scriber, who pays in advance for the com
ing year, a complete novel by some well-
known author the first of every month,
making twelve novels for the year. These
novels will appear in book form as a sup
plement to the Enquibkr-Sun, and will
only be presented to subscribers who are
clear on the books for the year 1891.
If the collector fails to see you on his
rounds please call at the office and settle.
The Eufaula Times is ripping mad be
cause an advertising agency firm made it
an offer to publish a lot of advertisements
at about cne-sixth its regular rates, allow
the agents 25 per cent commission and
take the balance out in trade. Our esteemed
contemporary should not lose his temper.
He should have rolled the letter making
this proposition into a taper and used it to
light his fragrant Havana. This is the
way to treat such cheeky propositions.
The Times is right in advising its State
contemporaries to spurn this advertising.
The country press would be a great deal
better off if a little independence were ex
ercised in this matter. They should estab
lish a fair rate for advertising and stick
to it.
The Savannah Council lias made her
people happy by a reduction of taxes. The
tax on banks has been reduced from 8 250
to $50, the wholesaler's tax from $175 to
$150, aud the retailers from $40 to $30.
The total reductions in specific taxes
amounts to about $15,000. In addition to
this, the Savannah Council has increased
the salaries of the principal city officers
from $150 to $300. Evidently Savannah
feels prosperous and has a good surplus on
hand.
At the charity doll show in New York, a
doll dressed by Mrs. Cleveland sold at auc
tion for $115, while one dressed by Mrs.
Harrison fetched $100. This is a pointer as
showing the estimation in which the ex-
l’resident’s wife is held. There never was
a more popular mistress of the White
House than charming Mrs. Cleveland.
Georgia orators, when they are sum
moned across Mason aud Dixon's line to
the banquet halls of the effete North,
should be careful to supply the home news
paper? with advanced proofs of their forth
coming eloquent remarks, so as to avoid
any possible misunderstanding as to what
they really say abroad.
The chicken roost on the premises of
the chief of police of Atlanta is uot a sere
place for the operations of prowling dar
keys. Emanuel Blalock verified this fact
the other night at the cost of his life.
Alaska is not on the market, but it is
said that a syndicate of solid citizeus of
that far-off territory are willing to give
Uncle Sam $14,000,000 in $20 gold pieces
for the whole tract.
An ex-Zulu chief, who has been one of
the attractions in a Cincinnati dime mus
es n has, just been identified as Michael
Dooley.
The suggestion of the Enquirer-Sun iu
regard to Columbus being made a signal
station is generally approved. Let the
move be made.
The Council will settle down to a discus
sion of the tax ordinance for '91 at the next
regular meeting.
Break off all your bad habits today, and
he in trim to commence the New Year
aright.
The Board of Trade banquet is the
laing.
Good-bye 1890.
WAR AGAINST PENSION SHARKS.
When it dawns on the old soldiers who
are on the government pension rolls, that
the Republican party has maintained a
system that has permitted claim agents to
absorb the enormous sum of $37,000,000
in fees, with $21,000,000 still in sight for
them on pending claims, there ought to be
a revolution that will everlastingly smash
what remains of the party of public plun
der. The greatest burdens have been im
posed upon the people in the name of the
old soldier, but the pension shark has
been the sleek beneficiary. The millions
absorbed by these agents are paid by the
people, and yet the people owe nothing to
the sharks who have been permitted by
the Republican party to stand between the
government and its pensioners. Down
with them! We are glad to see that, the
public sentiment is becoming aroused on
this question, and Congress, under pres
sure, is talking about reducing the fees of
the pension attorneys. But why not put a
stop to the fees altogether? Why should
it be necessary for the claimant to pay a
middle man to collect his pension from the
government? Let the pension bureau be
reorganized and the whole system revised
so that whatever pension is rightfully due,
it will be paid the claimant without toll
the sharks.
THE DANA JOKE.
NEW MAGAZINES.
The New York Herald is amusing itself
at the expense of E litor Dana, of the Sun,
by urging the election of that gentleman to
the United States Senate. It is a joke
which the general public, doubtless, en
joys fully as much as does the Herald.
Possibly Editor Dana is the only one who
takes it seriously, but, as the new Senator
from New York will be a Democrat, the
Sun Chief has about as good a chance to
sit in the Senate chamber as the late Sit
ting Bull, and the latter's chance may b
regarded as quite slim, under all the cir
cumstances. For some years, Dana’s De
mocracy has been iu bady odor, and we
fail to detect any recent symptoms of im
provement. No alleged Democrat who
has ever championed such a person as
Beast Butler for the Presidency and sup
ported him against the parly nominee, can
ever hope to be fully forgiven or reinstated.
Dana has committed other sins against the
party, hut this was the unpardonable. In
the meantime, there is no objection to the
Herald’s continuing its sport of the old
man.
The editor of the Little Rock Republi
can, the only Republican paper in Arkan
sas, has become disgusted with his party,
and the publication of the paper will be
discontinued. In making this announce
ment, the editor says:
“We all must confess—every well in
formed and candid man will confess—that
the Republican party, compared to what it
once was, has become the mere plaything
of partisan tricksters, of few brains and
smaller hearts—traders in politics for per
sonal aggrandizement—for the purposes of
pelf and plunder; indeed, has become lit
erally a den of thieves, recalling what
Christ said to the money changers who
trafficked in turtle doves for gain: “Take
these things hence; make not my Father’s
house a house of merchandise”—about
what Abraham Lincoln would say to the
so-called leaders of today could he speak
from the tomb, and his words and actions,
while living, still say as much with burn
ing rebuke; and if this be true from a na
tional standpoint—and, alas! it is only too
true—what hope can be found reasonable
to remain iu Arkansas, or for Arkansas?
From this standpoint it is simply a question
too palpably absurd to be propounded.”
According to the Washington correspon
dent of the Chicago Herald, the “Plumed
Knight” is in a bad way. This correspon
dent says:
“Blaine has become a veritable Machia-
velli in politics. He shuts himself up at
his house, denies himself to old friends, is
inaccessible to Congressmen and Senators
and everyone except a few favorites, and
spends his whole time scheming and plan
ning and hypnotizing poor Harrison. The
majority of his old friends have deserted
him, and for good reason, for he has re
fused to help them. He will not even see
them. lie is so fascinated and puffed up by
what he thinks the glorious prospects of
his reciprocity scheme that he is of little
use in anything else. He is becoming vis
ionary and impractical. He appears to be
shutting his eyes, and Garrison is shutting
his eyes, to the schemes and jobs that are
lurking behind this reciprocity business,
aud which sooner or later are bound to in
volve the whole affair in a big scandal.
This is the place Blaine now occupies in
the administration aud our national poli
tics, and I predict that when this admin
istration comes to an end we shall have
seen the last of him.'’
The secretaries of the United States Sen
ators, who are now trying to get on the
annual pay roll, get this notice in the New
Y'ork Commercial Advertiser:
“That was a good joke on Senator Pad-
dock, but does it not point a moral or two?
A man delivers—or does not deliver, for it
makes no difference—a speech in the Sen
ate: the official reporters sit with folded
hands, or retire to chat in an ante room.
When the speech is ended a messenger
goes to the Senator’s room, seizes some
manuscript, which proves to be the letter
of a secretary to an Idaho newspaper, and
rushes off to the columns of the official
record. In the first place, whit kind of
“reporting is this? And in the second,
why are the secretaries of Senators en
gaged in newspaper correspondence? Per
haps the Government does not hire enough
reporters; perhaps it does not pay the. sec
retaries a living salary; perhaps a good
plan would be to abolish the secretaries
and turn their stipends over to the report
ing bureau.’’
The mortality of the last Legislature was
unprecedented. So far, death has not vis
ited the present General Assembly, al
though Senator Gill is now dangerously
ill at iiis home in Lee county and may not
recover. The hope will be general over
the State that he may be restored to
health.
The Nashville American has plucked up
the courage to refuse to republish the
“Beautiful Snow.” Itis^nTit ascertained
in what way the numerous authors of that
poetical gem will wreak their vengeance on
the American editor.
It is reported that Governor Northen is
overworking himself in the executive offiee.
What’s the matter with his able lieuten
ants, Major Jim Warren, Capt. Tip Harri
son and Col. Stanhope Sams?
Mr. Jason Gould is having his portrait
painted by a French artist. The Chicago
Tribune says it is uot stated how mu :h the
foreigner will lose ou the job.
The Atlanta Constitution is pleased to
remark:
„ It is but just to say that the Columbus
Enquirer-Sun is an all-round good news
paper, and it is evident that it is meeting
with the success it richly deserves.
Among greetings for the New Tear the
heartiest and happiest come from the
January number of the Ladies’ Home
Journal. Oliver Wendell Holmes, George
William Curtis, James Whitcomb Riley,
George W. Childs and Will Carleton join
with Henry M. Stanley, John Wanamaker,
Rutherford B. Hayes, Joseph Jefferson,
Lawrence Barrett, Dr. Talmage, Bishop
Newman and many other well known men,
to weave for the women of America a gar
land of good wishes for 1891. It is a per
fect treasury of kindly words and bright
thoughts, and every woman should read
what these great men wish for her. If
this number is a fair index, the present
volume of the Jo urnal will be an espec
ially rich one. It is issued at $1 a year by
the Curtis Publishing Company, 435 Arch
street, Philadelphia.
The most beautiful frontispiece ever pro
duced in an American magazine appears
in the January number of the Cosmopoli
tan. It is a reproduction in colors of
Francois Flameng’s famous picture “The
Cake Seller,” and can scarcely be distin
guished from the imported photogravure,
which is exhibited iu the dealers windows,
at the price of $7 a copy. It is one of the
most charming of subjects, and is well
worth framing and preservation. The
Cosmopolitan has become noted of late for
its frontispieces and this very much excels
its previous efforts.
The number contains the first of two
parts of Mrs. Van Rensselaer Cruger’s new
novel, Mademoisellee Reseda, pronounced
by critics who have read it the best of her
work. Mrs. Cruger is a woman who is in
timately acquainted with fashionable cir
cles, both in this country and abroad. She
writes in a realistic manner, without any
of the offensiveness of the average realism.
The next article in importance is from the
pen of Miss Bisland, describing a visit to
the People’s Palace in London. Darley,
with his own illustrations, is also given.
a’Beeket’s clever story, Don Gracias, is
illustrated in a novel manner, the well
known actors, Sotliern and Miss Ilarned,
having consented to pose for the situations
of the novel, the results being reproduced
in photogravure.
The January Forum opens with a re
view of the colonization and division of
Africa down to date, aud accompanied with
a map, by Prof. Emile de Laveleye. This
is a record of the most gigantic work of
colonization ever undertaken, and its in
fluence on the future of civilization can
not yet be reckoned. Mr. Thomas G.
Shearman writes an essay on “The Com
ing Billionaire,” to show that under the
present system of the federal taxation our
present two-huudred-milliouaires would
necessarially become billionaires iu forty
years; but he does not expect a billionaire
at all, because he regards the present sys
tem of indirect taxation as doomed and
the early coming of direct federal taxation
as available.
President J. C. Price, of Livingston Col
lege, N. C., himself a colored man, discuss
es the question whether the negroes seek
social equality with the whites. Maintain
ing that his race does not seek social equal
ity, he argues that to seek or
to expect it through legislation would be
futile and absurd- The biographical essay
this month is by President Dwight, of
Yale, who points out the relative advan
tages from his point ■ of view of the com
mercial life and of the life of a teacher.
Eliza Lynn Linton, after showing the in
adequacy of marriage iu certain ways,
argues the necessity of maintaining it as
the very preservation of society. The
Rev. Charles Dana Boardman, of Philadel
phia, vvrites of “Conservative Progress” in
church, in politics and in society; W. S.
Lilly discusses the nature of real liberty,
which must be subject to law; Edmund
Gosse writes of the future of poetry as one
of the great arts; Mr. Oberlin Smith shows
how the construction and service of rail
ways might be improved and even revolu
tionized, and Mr. John D. Champlin, Jr.,
writes about the increasing American
habit of manufacturing ancestors.

MONEY FOR CATHOLIC PRIESTS.
Cologne, December 29 —The Yolks
Ztdtung announces that a bill will be sub
mitted to the German imperial parliament
in 1891, providing for the restitution to
the Catholic Church of the entire accu
mulated capital formed by the priests sal
aries which were confiscated during the
anti-Catholi- agitation. It is further pro
posed, by the bill referred to, that this ac
cumulated capital shall be handed over t
the bishops, who are to appoint special
boards of arbitration in each diocese to
decide the claims for compensation. Noth
ing final, however, will be decided till the
Prussian minister considers the matter.
STRIKERS RETURN TO WORK.
Newark, N. J., December 29.—One
thousand girls returned to work at Clark’s
thread mills this morning, including the
twisters, spoolers and finishers. There is
about three weeks work on hand, and if
the trouble with the spinners is settled by
that time the girls will be kept on. The
company expects a big supply of cotton
from Scotland shortly, and will then offer
work to one thousand more girls. The
striking spinners and locked out men find
no fault with the girls for returning to
work, as they were not organized.

“Hello! Tom. Glad to see you, old fellow!
It’s almost ten years since we were married. Sit
down: let's have an experience meeting. How’s
th„ wife ? ”
“Oh! she’s so-so, same as nguil,—always want.
Ing something I can’t afford.”
“ Well, we all want something more than we’re
got. Don’t yon f”
“Yes: but I guess ‘want will be my master.* I
started to keep down expenses; and now Lil says
Pm ‘mean,’ and she's tired of saving and never
. having anything to show for it. I caw your wife
j down street, and she looked as happy as a queen! ”
1 “I think she is : and we are economical, too,—
have to be. My wife can make a little go further
than anyone I ever knew, yet she's always snr-
prising rne writh some dainty contrivance that
adds to the comfort and beauty of our little home
and she’s always ‘ merry as a lark.’ When I ask
how she manages it, she alwavs Ianghs and says*
‘Oh! that’s my secret!’ But I think I've dial
1 covered her 1 secret.’ When we married, we both
knew we should have to be very careful, but she
made one condition: she would have her Magazine.
And she was right! I wouldn't do without it my
self for double the subscription price. We read
it together, from the title-page to the last word :
the stories keep our hearts young; the synopsii
of important events and scientific matters keeps
me posted so that I can talk understanding^ of
what is going on ; my wife is always trying some
new idea from the household department; ahe
makes ah her dresses and those for the children
and she gets all her patterns for nothing, with the
Magazine , and we saved Joe when he was so sick
with the croup, by doing just as directed in the
Department. But I can’t tell you half!”
What wonderful Magazine Is it ?”
‘Demorest's Family Magazine, and—”
‘What! Why that’s what Lil wanted so bad
ana 1 told her it was an extravagance.”
