Boj,ton remark* in her new book, “.Stories From Life,” that “generally a western periodical is soon criticised out of existence.” Perhaps a periodical which can be “criticised out of existence” is not really worthy of long life.

Nevertheless, if a rich limn is not happy it is because lie does in il know how to use his money, or else ll.' came by it dishonestly. Those candidates for congress who can persuade their audiences that the (arifT question lias passed discussion on the stump are lucky, it gives them a good chance to talk much and say nothing to commit themselves. The Philadelphia Herald ironically re in irks that “there is reason (o hope that Mr. Blaine will strengthen the cause of protection in Pennsylvania by his great efforts to show that that is the real issue before the country, and that the free traders of Pittsburg and Philadelphia will lie driven into their holes." lu Hlai.nu admits the next I wo yet That is what l he t ti.it The Philadelphia Inquirer pertinently refers to the recent announcement by tlie London rimes that 30.000 English miners were about to strike against the proposed reduction of their present wage, which, the Times declared, is just ten shilling*, or $2.. r >0 per week, or less than one- fourth of the nversge wage paid in the United States. Mr. Biuunf, is hazarding his reputation by at tempting to save states with from 40,000 to 80,000 ' republican majority. A very reckless man is Mr. | Blaine. olher words, it is like Binding coal to New Castle. It must lie gratifying to those interest ed in the Central railroad that the news paper reporters who arc ho industriously “scooping” up the road, have very kindly allowed the present management, to hold nn until the stockholders’ meeting.

And it is not claiming too much for them to sav that they are young men of industry and brains, and a* such will make valuable representatives. The most prominent change so far as our congressmen are concerned, how ever, is in tlit* thought and consideration given to th<! nominees of the democratic party. A largo majority of the voters remember well that democracy, during the dark days of reconstruction, meant hostility to the republican party as a bitter foe to the south. The outrages and methods of the republican party forced the people of the south to stand side by side and flglit for self-preservation. The only protection they had was offered through the success of the democratic party and all elements hostile to repub lican domination allied themselves as democrats. But as the bitterness growing out of the war has softened hy time, and as the acts of the republican party has to a certain extent become more tolerable by frequent chastisements, the people of the south give more calm and deliberate thought to the great and economic principles which in volve their hapniness and prosperity than they have done since iHtio. The consequence is. the people of Georgia have done more thinking and every true and loyal democrat can but rejoice at this condition of affairs, A true democrat need have no fears when the principles of democracy are advocated before the people. It is a source of much gratifica tion that tlie gentlemen who have been selected to represent Georgia in the next national legislature are of this class of thinking, working democrats, who be lieve that ‘democracy means something, j prove a boomerang, no doubt and who are not afraid to say what that meaning is. EMINS POWDER reduction of revenue in is an imperative necessity. 11' reformers hold. Neither Hewitt, Roosevelt nor George is more I than five feet six in height. For small men they j are making a great deal of noise in the world at | present. Tiie republicans of Ohio, after making a close canvass of the state, claim that they will carry it by at least 17,500 majority. The democrats claim that they will win by a small majority. The re publicans lay claim to fifteen out of the twenty- one congressmen. On the other hand, the dem ocrats hope to elect eleven out of the twenty-one. Three republican and four democratic gov ernors have been elected this year, and the suc cessors to nine republican ard eight democratic governors are to be chosen next mouth. Mr. BijAINR said to the students of Washing ton college that his Latin and Greek was defi cient. But his English seems to flow on with its usual copiousness in the same old channels. The heat of the gubernatorial light in Connecti cut is shown by the fact that the republican can didate has been accused of managing a skating rink in former years. If he did so without elop ing with another man’s wife his fitness to govern a great stute is at'once shown. The charge will A Boston publisher says that 100,001) | Topics of the first volume oj' Blaine’s book ! were printed, and but 75,000 of the sec ond volume. The author gets a royalty of 75 cents on each volume sold, which will make his receipts, when the edition is exhausted, $1:11,280. If Mr. Blaine had undei\*totiil*bi)ok publishing as well as he understands polities he could huve made from $50,000 to $75,000 more, it is said. 1'hk result of the turf season which is about to close, is highly satisfactory from a pecuniary point of view. The earnings of the principal stables were very large. Ten stables, comprising 170 horses, earned over $500,000, an average of $8,300 for oaeli horse started. It is estimated that the Ibvyers, who started thirty-three racers, earned $195,000, said to be the largest sum ever earned hy one stable in a single season. Baldwin stands next on the list, his fourteen horses earning over $98,000. Captains. S. Brown earned with his ten horses nearly $31,000. A. J. Cassatt, of Phila delphia, pocketed over $45,000 in earn ings of his sixteen horses. The unexpected and, except in the presidential year of 1884, unprecedented ly large registration in New York city reveals the extraordinary interest of till classes of voters in the mayoralty con test. In 1884 the total registration was 240,900, and the total vote for presiden tial electors was 227,780, and for mayor 227,335. This year the registration books contain 235,874 names. A little more than 5 per cent, of tlie voters who reg istered in 1884 did not vote. If tliis pro portion should hold good this year—and the interest in tin* election warrants the belief that the abstentions will not be much more numerous than in the presi dential year—the total vote for mayor will be about 223,000. It is safe to say tlmt it will not fall below 220.000. The Atlanta Evening Capitol an nounces through its columns that Mr. John T. Waterman has assumed the editorial charge of that paper. Mr. Waterman is well known in this section, having begun his journalistic career in Talbotton, and also having made such a splendid success of the LaGrange lte- porter. He was of later years editor and proprietor of the Griffin Sun. lie is an energetic journalist and a vigorous writer, as has been evidenced in all ltis news paper work. The Capitol lias success assured to it under his able management. Waterman is an honor to Georgia jour nalism, and like some of the most ]>rom- inent men of the day started at the bot tom and has built himself up. THAT AWVI!I, INTKHV1KW. itappears that Mr. James Russell Low ell is very much disgruntled—perhaps as much so as the average public man whose words are too accurately reported. He submitted to an interview by Mr. Julian Hawthorne, a son of his life-long friend, and now lit; publishes a card in which be repudiates the conversation by saying: “I tlo not believe that Mr. Hawthorne willfully misrepresented me; but what ever I may have said has become, after passing through the refracting medium of his memory, much more his than mine.” Mr. Lowell is much to be commiser ated. Ho knew Mr. Hawthorne as the son of liis friend, and received hint in that capacity, while Mr. Hawthorne vis ited him in the capacity of an inter viewer. This, however, would all have A CARD.

In analyzing samples of baking powder purchased by myself of a number of grocers in New York City, I find that CLEVELAND S SUPERIOR BAKING POWDER contains only pure Grape Cream of Tartar, Bicarbonate of Soda, and a small portion of flour.

It makes a great deal of dif ference—more perhaps than the average talker has an idea. Words not intended to give even so nmeli ns offense, pome- tiinos appear brutal, and this is the sum and substance ofthe gentleman who now disclaims having uttered them. In a general way the public man who denies the anthorticity or the accuracy of the published rojiort of an interview with himself exposes himself to suspi cion. The reporter always dots down his notes and hns no object in view only to accurately report what is said to him. Sometimes the sbbject of an interview makes no complaint about the report of it until bis words gets Him into trouble and then be defends himself by rising up and denying its accuracy. in this particular instance it occurs to us that our New York cotemporaries are giving themselves unnecessary trouble in the discussion of it. A man who is so unwise as to repose any confidence what ever in a stranger who visits him avowed ly ns a newspaper reporter, lias himself to thank ifliis confidences are betraved.

The fourth congressional district has frequently been alluded to in this and other districts as the “fussy fourth.” This because independent candidates and dis appointed and disgruntled democrats un dertook to run its political affairs in their own particular way. It probably con tains as much intelligence as any district in the state. It is essentially democratic, and its interest in national affairs are with the democrats. It should not, there fore, at the election next Tuesday, fail to do its duty, to a worthy nominee. Hon. T.
