THE EGGBUSTER IN POLITICS.
The present municipal race has
developed a new and original char
acter who is worthy of more than a
passing notice. We have had many
rare firds in politics, but none in
any way resembling this one. The
carpetbagger, the bushwhacker, the
bulldozer, the filibuster and the
snollygoster we know. They all
have their places in history, but
the eggbuster is new to us and we
hardly know how to take him. He
came in like a lion and he may go
out like a lamb, but whatever he
does he will have a place in the
archives of the illustrious. His
recent utterance has already be
come a classic, treasurable with the
bon mots of Sidney Smith or the
happy hits of Davy Crockett. The
carpetbagger was the creature of
circumstances, the bulldozer was the
victim of evil spirits and the snolly
goster was an excrescence upon the
times, but our new found genius is
the architect of his own fortunite. All
the others are ephemeral and must
soon die. Like the grass they
sprang up and were cut off by the
noonday heat, but the eggbuster is a
sui generis, fit to oscupyji new niche
in the aisles of fame. When all the
rest are dead and forgotten he will
be ‘callyhootin’ down the corridors of
time.
MANUFACTURES AND THE TARIFF.
Hamper’s Weekly does not concur
in the protectionist idea that manu
facturers must suffer when the tariff
is reduced. On this subject the edi
tor of that periodical says:
“Under any tariff system they are
certain to flourish, but under a lib
eral tariff system they will not only
flourish within the country, but
they will support a larger and larger
proportion of our exports. Whin
once the artificial inducement of
high duties is removed, capital will
naturally seek those industries which
do not need a premium from the
Government, which can stand by
themselves, and which will naturally
seek a vent in exports as the do
mestic market is fully supplied.
Whether we have high duties or low
duties, a larger proportion of the
population of the United States is
sure to engage itself in manufactures
as time goes on. The census figures
show that this has been the general
tendency in the distribution of in
dustries for the last hundred years
under every sort of tariff regime,
and the tendency is sure to main
tain itself in the future. The
question is not whether we shall
have manufactures, but what kind
of manufactures we shall have—-
those that clamor with or without
ground, for Government support
or those that maintain themselves
without it.
“Under a liberal tariff system we
may expect not only a growth of the
exports of the United States, but a
larger proportion of manufactures
in the list of exported articles. A
change of this sort will not work
itself out in a year, or in five years.
It takes time to develop, and can
accomplish itself only when staple
conditions of moderate tariff duties
have been definitely reached. But
it will none the less come in time,
and will be the healthy and the profi
table direction for the development
of our manufacturing industries and
of our international trade.”
This view is borne out by the ex
perience of England. The sweeping
redactions and final abolition of
most of the duties on imports into
that country was followed by pros-
' perity such as Great Britain had
never known. Her commerce in
creased six fold in fifty years and
she outstripped all competitors for
the trade of both the orient and the
new world. Even she has the lion’s
share of trade ia South America,
despite our friendly relations with
those countries. It is to be hoped
that the eyes of the American peo
ple are at last opened.
Gen. Evans was in Savannah last
week and received an ovation there
—as he does everywhere he goes.
The fact is, that Gen. Evans is just
as good as nominated already.—

Gen. Evans is confident of carry
ing at least one hundred counties.
He is a sure winner.—-Darien
Gazette.
It seems that there is an ‘egg
bustin’ in store for Lew Wagner.
Lew is some on egg bustin’ himself.
“Wait for the water works and
we will all take a ride,” seems to be
a campaign cry of the “egg busters.”
It is thought that the expected
resignation of Mr. Gladstone is a
portent of war.
PIEDMONT NOTES.
The Removal of the East & West Shops to
Piedmont.
Piedmont, Ala., Feb. 3, 1894.
The quarterly conference for the An
niston district, M. E. church south, is in
session here today. Dr. T. G. Slaughter,
the beloved presiding elder, is in the
chair. The financial report is rather
slim.
There seems to be no longer any doubt
about the removal of the company’s
offices and machine shops of the East
and West railroad to this point, from
Cartersville. It is now stated on good
authority that all the details have been
arranged and the work of removal will
commence before long. Os course our
little city will be very proud of this ad
dition to her population and industries.
Mr. Jake Williams has gone to Atlanta
with a drove of beef cattle.
Miss Lou Elgin is visiting friends in
Oxford.
Tue roll of the Cumberland Female
S iminary approximates 200 pupils, and
s'ill they come.
The political machine is not grinding
much now for want of grist. It is not
thought that the people will take as
much interest in politics this year as they
did in the campaign two years ago.
They seem to be more interested in bet
tering their condition at home and less
inclined to mix up in politics.
A HORRIBLE DEATH-
An Old Man Dragged a Long Distance By
a Dorse.
Calhoun, Ga., Feb 3. —Uncle Jimmie
Gaines, who for years has been a well
known citizen of Dry Valley east of Cal
houn met with the most horrible death
Thursday night that has ever been known
in this county.
He was in Calhoun Thursday afternoon
and left town considerably intoxicated.
He drove a wild young horse to a light
read cart. About ten o’clock that night
his wife heard the horse neigh at the
gate and went out. She found the horse
standing at the gate and the cart appar
ently empty. Going round behind the
cart a horrible sight met her eyes.
Hanging by one foot entangled in the
seat of the cart hung the mangled re
mains of the old man. He had been
dragged downward for more than a mile
over a rocky road and his head was re
duced to a jelly while his arms were
bruised and torn horribly. It is supposed
that he fell out and was dragged slowly
or that the horse ran away. Mr. Gaines
was sixty years old and has been a bailiff
for years.

A
Revolution
In Eating
has been brought about by the
introduction of Cottolene, the
new vegetable shortening. The
discovery of this product, and the
demonstration of its remarkable
qualities, has attracted the widest
interest. Hitherto the common
shortening has been lard, or
indifferent butter. Every one has
probably suffered occasional dis
comfort from lard-cooked food;
while it is well known that thous
ands are obliged to abstain entire
ly from everything of that kind.
To such people, Cottolene is of
peculiar value, widening as it
does, the range of what may be
eaten and enjoyed. Cottolenb
is a cooking marvel. It combines
with the food—imparts to it a
tempting colo r , a delicate flavor,
and an appetizing crispness.
No trace of greasiness remains
to offend the taste, or disturb the
digestion.
Cottolene is worthy of the
careful notice of all those who
value good food, of itself or for
its hygienic properties.
