It ta Raid that Mr. Blaine i« certainly
the man the next republican nominee
ImHtoheat. This lets Johnalogan out.
It seemH that President Cleveland
wants a rest, ami he intends to have it,
He Hays “the dog days must and shall be
respected.” _________
Ir the defense is not able to break
down direct testimony in the case of (lie
anarchists on (rial in Chicago, there will
lie some work ibrtlie hangman out there
before long.
A Caukoh.nia paper speaks of two “re
spectable ladies’* who fought with
hatchets. A California woman who is
not "respectable” would bo a bad tiling
to wake up.
Mexico may insult the United States
and shoot American citizens, hut the St.
Louis Republican finds consolation in
knowing that every well-regulated dime
museum in this country has a cork leg
that once belonged lo Santa Anna.
Does any one desire a rare treat? Let
them take an Alabama or Georgia politi
cian, tel) him that there are no applicants
for the offices in the South Carolina state
nominating convention, und then watch
him try hi comprehend the situation.
Secretary Bayard ought to get Web
ster’s spelling hook and read the fable of
the old man who threw hunches of grass
at tiie boy in the apple tree. A few
heavy stones hurled at Mexico would
make the greasers tumble to the racket
and stop their foolishness with American
citizens.
Attention has been called to the fact
that bo much noise from our manufacto
ries, railroad trains and other business en
terprises seriously affects some of our citi
zens by the perpetual din and rumbling.
It should bo comforting to extremely
nervous people to know that it is but a
few hour's ride to Atlanta and four hours
will put them in the quiet of Macon.
The Globe-Democrat's special corre
spondent at Lima, <>., sends full particu
lars of the (lush oflightning which turned
a blasphemer into stone. Touching
this the St. Louis, Republican says that
in t he absence of instructions he is taking
hb tone from •the Logan boom articles
on the condition of the southern negro.
It is said that "evil communications
corrupt good morals,” Iml Senator Butler
seems to be proof against such infection.
A Washington item runs to the cll'oct
that it washy the efforts of Simon Came
ron that tiie disabilities of the present
Senator Butler, of South Carolina, were
removed. Butler’s uncle and Cameron
had been fnM friends in the old days,
and now Butler and Don Cameron arc
intimates, being much together.
Secretary Lamar has removed “33
and Secretary Manning 240 republicans
from the classified service in the depart
ments at Washington, For a civil service
reform administration this is doing toler
ably well, but we will never lmve com
plete civil service reform until tiie last
one of them are made to go. By the
way, what is the matter with Endicott,
Whitney, Garland and Vilas? They
ought to help “turn the rascals out.”
There are about three hundred thou
sand miles of railroad in the world, of
which fully one-half are in America.
Australia is now building ;;t the greatest
rate per cent, of any of the grand divis
ions of the world, partly because the
mileage of that country is very small in
proportion to its extent. Sixty per cent,
of the railroads of the world are in Eng
lish-speaking countries. Australia has
only 304 persons per mile of railroad, the
United States about 300, and Canada the
same. In Groat Britain and Ireland
there are 1870 people per mile of road,
and in Germany, France and Belgium
still more. Austria heads the list with
2780 persons per mile. The British rail
roads are very costly, the average ex
ceeding 8200,000 per mile. The average
in the United States is less than one-
third as much, the difference being due
not altogether tiX cheaper construction,
but largely to thd great cost of way in
the more thickly populated country. The
United States lias spent more for railroads
per inhabitant than; any other country—
about $133. Russia has only spent $14
per head, and most of the European na
tions less than $50.
the cioivrm i iojts wood-cits.
The red renovator flint is popularly
apposed to reach us after "coming
thro'the rye” i* very scarce in Atlanta
now. The old toper, with his burnt out
‘ innards,” his beef-liver nose, U
h.ifiled, and dejected, and sad. The
glad light has gone out of his heart; and
the habboon* have come down from his
bedstead posts and silently stolen away.
But when the typical toper of the Gate
City woke up last Sunday morning and
got a glimpse of the live harrowing wood-
cuts on the seventh page of the Atlanta
Constitution, lie must have thought that
“he had ’em agu1n,"
There is a story of a boy who drew a
picture of a monkey on a burn door with
chalk and went away. By and by he re
turned and wrote under his drawing:
“To the puhlick, this here's a monkey.’’
The Constitution with a charity for help
ing the public out of a predicament which
is akin to that of the hoy, has printed
under its first wood-cut tiie startling in
formation “General John B. Gordon.”
The general has changed sadly since we
sow him a few short weeks ago. In fact
he must have gone through a sausage
mill since then. Then he was hand
some, benign and gallant. Now he looks
like he has had his picture taken with a
false face on. If General Gordon will
preserve the Sunday Constitution’s pic
ture of himself it may he of service to
him yet. When he is in the governors’
ollice and the otfice-seekers arc crowding
him to death, he can just hung the Con
stitution’s picture of himself over the
door arid go to sleep. We were going to
say that ho could make sure by also
hanging over the door Dante’s inscrip
tion over the gate of hades, “He who
enters here leaves hope behind.” But
it would he superfluous. The picture
says all that and more, too. Would an
office-seeker who had eyes and nerves
enter the door? We think not. Would
anybody he able to hack a blind mule
through the door while the picture
hung over it? We think not. The peo
ple of Georgia will weep when they get
the Constitution and see the change that
their gallant idol has undergone. And
this sad change is to he charged to the
Constitution. For tiie ('(institution’s ar
tist evidently did it with ltis little hatchet;
and the hatchet needed grinding, too.
The next section of nightmare is an al
leged wood-cut, under which appear the
the words, “Nathan Crawford Barnett.”
People who know this gentle and benefi
cent-looking Nestor of the capitol, whose
whole contour beams with an unspoken
blessing upon his fellow-men, will feel
little sympathy with the caricaturist,
who has given the good old man a
mouth thgt is shaped like the cow-catch
er of a locomotive, and a face that has
less animation and expression than a
pone of bread. It is a shame that a man
whose hair lias grown white as snow in
the service of his state, and whose very
name is a synonym of integrity, should
have his old age ruffled and mortified by
seeing in u daily paper over his own
name, an alleged wood-cut which looks
more like the picture of an exploding
bombshell than it does like the face of a
secretary of state.
Treasurer Robert l’. Hardeman is the
next victim. He is a man who will not
allow himself to be imposed on, and we
don’t believe he’ll submit this time. He
lias a large circle of kindred who must
suffer this indignityalongwith him. And
if Colonel Boh appears on the streets
some day with a scalp dangling, like a
watch charm, at his belt, people may
know that the Constitution artist has
been slain with his own tool; that his
hatchet can draw blond if it can't draw
pictures. The alleged wood-cut of Col.
Hardeman, who is really a handsome
man, is a faithful, but somewhat exagger
ated, picture of the convict who led the
recent strike in the Dade county coal
mines. We wouldn’t say this in print if
it were not for the fact that the convict
mentioned is in for life.
Tiie next dark spot in this page of
crime is where the Constitution’s artist
has done it to Attorney-General Clifford
Anderson. The artist evidently attacked
this gentleman from behind when he
took his picture. The mouth, cheeks
amj chin look a good deal like the hack
of the neck of st^uie man who was turn
ing his best side to the world when he
was photographed. Attorney-General
Anderson knows the law, and if there is
any redress in the state for a man who has
been assaulted with a jack-knife und a
hatchet, in his absence, he’ll have it.
The Constitution’s artist's latest off
spring is his worst. He wound up his
gallery of portraits of the state officials
with a picture of Hon. William Ambrose
Wright, whom he evidently hates worse
than he does any of the rest. Mr. Wright
has doubtless done the artist some great
wrong in the past. But the artist is ev*i
with him now. At first glance the pic
ture of Mr. Wright seems to represent a
deserted nail-keg with a cabbage on it.
But it is a picture that grows on you.
And any connoisseur can easily see that
if the picture was properly framed and
hung out in some lonely spot the owls
would strike at it all night for an old
hen.
Those of us who were not nominated
for a state office had a lucky escape.
Little did the nominees, amid the ap
plause and congratulations they received,
think that the Constitution’s artist, in
a few days, would be among them like a
roaring lion, seeking whose picture he
might take.
Death is no longer the king of terrors
in the Gate City. Men ignore and forget
death in their frantic effort- to dodge the
wood-cut harpy . the Constitution, who
impales the innocent man and the eftn-
didate alike upon bis burning spit. Shoot
him.
VACUA XT V. ' '
it is said that Chief Connolly, of the At
lanta police, is winning golden opinions
by his recent sitcces-ful attempts to make
vagrancy unpopular in Atlanta. The
curse of many of our towns is vagrancy,
in the country neighborhoods of the
south a vagrant is soon spotted, at\d the
unexpressed contempt of the neighbor
hood, sometimes accompanied by more
demonstrative persuasions, makes it un
comfortable for him, and he “moves on.”
The consequence is that vagrants cling
about town like filings to a magnet.
They lose their identity in the great
throngs; they hide their self-imposed dis
grace amid the foibles of the multitudes)
and they enjoy a certain immunity from
public displeasure by the fact of
their obscurity. Men who are idle
became they cannot find employment do
not merit and, in most cases, do not re
ceive the contumely that i- put upon
vagrancy. Such men deserve assistance,
and in a country like ours are not liable
to sutler, before they can obtain work.
But there is u large class of aimless
men who sacrifice their self-respect to
their indolence, und live upon the in
dustry or the credulity of others. This
is morally a crime in itself. But the
trouble is that the criminal classes are
recruited from the ranks of vagrancy.
The old adage about an idle
mind being the workshop of a certain
horned and tailed monster is illustrated
almost daily. From indirectly living a
dishonest life to becoming a positive
factor in the commission of a theft or
some other crime, is but a step. Va
grants are criminals in the formative
state. Time incubates them. It is easier
to crush the egg than to catch the eagle
it will hatch out. Let our authorities he
alert for vagrant-, Men who refuse,
when they are able, to provide homes
for themselves should have one provided
by the city or county. But it should be
a jail, not an alms house.
l’OUTU'Al, I’RATTEE.
East Tennessee puts forward five or six candi
dates for the office of governor.
Judge Seney, of Ohio, announces himself in
favor of repealing the civil service law.
New York democratic politicians generally
fayor holding a convention this fall instead of
letting the committee make nominations.
General Clinton B. Fisk thinks he will receive
as many democratic as republican votes for gov
ernor of New Jersey. The republicans don't
think so.
Tiie Albany News and Advertiser says: “Milt
Smith was withdrawn as a bellowsed horse, and
Milt Candler nominated Gen. Gordon.” If our
cotemporary had read the Enquirer-Sun it
would not apve made itself ridiculous by such a
foolish assertion.
The New Orleans Picayune predicts that in five
years the liquor traffic will be suppressed in a
large majority of tbe counties in every southern
state.
Lieutenant-Governor Black, of Pennsylvania,
says the democratic platform of that state will
speak out In unequivocal condemnation of
sumptuary laws.
General Gordon was escorted to the hall lean
ing on the arm of Pat AValsh. Pat’s on the big
side again.—News and Advertiser. It is a cold
day when Pat gets left. But may he Brother
McIntosh wasn’t notified tojstand firm to Bacon,
ns there was a principle involved far beyond that
of personalism.
I The Fayetteville (Arkansas) Sentinel says:
J ’’Col. Byrd Smith is announced as a candidate for
congress in this district. Col. Byrd Smith is the
greenback party of the northwest. Sometimes
tiie sun don’t rise, but Byrd never misses run
ning for congress.” This reminds us cf the Har
ris county legislative field.
Rev. Dr. Leonard, leader of the Ohio pro
hibitionists, should keep out of the way of news
paper men if he objects to seeing his words in
print. As it is, he will soon have a reputation as
the great repudiator of interviews.
The recent capture aud plunder of a Dutch
I vessel by Chinese pirates is a striking commen-
I tary on the fact that the railroad system of
China is in its early infancy. If American
j m ethods of watering stock, securing subsidies
J and managing construction companies had been
I introduced there, the necessity of transacting
piratical business at sea would not exist. But
China moves slowly. Perhaps by the time her
! railroads are fairly started the means of chcck-
| ing the present attending practices will be in-
| vented and the Chinese roads can be managed
| without these accompaniments.
j Says the Philadelphia Times: Senator Blair is
1 at it again. It is not pensions this time, nor
j southern education. Blair has still another hobby
taller titan these. It is an amendment to the
i constitution of the United States, prohibiting,
after A. D. 1900, the "manufacture, sale and im-
| portatiou of distilled alcoholic intoxicating
I liquors.” That extraordinary committee on edu-
! cation and labor that has evolved so many won-
| derful schemes has now gravely brought forth
j this proposition, accompanied by one of Senator
Blair's most astonishing reports.

Everybody knows Gray sells large LINEN TOWELS as cheap as other stores; sells

Do you note the fears of some, less the rolling stone would move up town. Well, we
are going to make some sell cheap while we are at it.
.LOST! LOST!! LOST!!!
The old phantom ship goes down, loaded with old charge books aud ledgers, and old fogy ideas
and shop-worn goods. Gray’s war ship hit it with one of his needle guns aud made them heave to.
The missile fired into her was a large rolling stone, and the last words heard from the captain were,
“Gray, please don’t move uptown.” All the small fish can do is to murmur. In getting up this re
action in business the public will notice we did not get up the big rush to the Trade Palace by
making a run on cheap cotton goods, but hit the trade right with fine Wool and Linen Goods, so as
to prove to all classes of trade we deserve the name of the Regulator! of Low Prices. The double
width Black Cashmere ou our Bargain Table at 12*<jc is the same as they sell you elsewhere at 25c.
We claim to match any $1.50 Black Gros Grain Silk in town at $1.00 a yard. We brag on our Ladies’
Black Silk Brilliant Lisle Hose at 50c. And our Balbriggnn Hose at 20c cannot be matched in town
for the same money. Our object is to establish the one price system, not ten prices. So as the pilot
steers clear of the rocks, so will he whose price is bent on success avoid maelstroms of high paces,
which have swept whole generations of master minds from aifiueuce to beggary, from greatness and
grandeur to the oblivion of the grave.
