St i ll weather as yesterday and the day before lias beauty added by the fact that it does not cat into the eoul idle. Coi.uMiirs will not grow eold or indif ferent to her railroad opportunities. There is wealth for her in the future in this suggestion. Hon. Tiioh. \V. Uiu.mus will go to con gress from this district hacked by the contldence of an attached constituency. Wo predict for him a career of sturdy usefulness. Tub appearances are that they want to light very badly over in Europe, hut the implements of war are now so destruc tive that they want plenty of time to tonsider. It is now asserted that Mrs. James Brown Potter “can recite a poem with both eyes Hlmt and her hands behind her back.” Fame can do a great deal for a woman, but she will talk. Columin's is tlie proud mistress of a large interior cotton trade. She lias facilities which ninny other points can not meet, hence she gets the lieecy staple. It is confidently believed that Gov ernor Gordon will give the people of Georgia an able, dean and manly admin istration, and a perfectly impartial one in every respect. Wuknbvkr a democratic newspaper happens to mention the name of Hon. Joseph E. McDonald, of Indiana, nil the republican papers immediately have fits, and bad ones, at that. A REFOliM of the tarill' is deeply im planted in the hearts of the peuplo of Georgia and of the entire south. !t is one of tiie foundations upon which democracy is built, and it can never lose its place as a leading tenet—the leading place—in the articles of the true demo cratic faith. Tv Rum, Ltomunism and Rebellion floored Mr. Blaine in ISSI there is an- ! ©tiler 11 (reform) which will work out j liis political death in ’88, if lie is man- j innted. The very meaning of the word j reform implies that it must eliminate all such elements as those embodied in Blaine’s candidacy. James G. Blaine will die this side the presidency if lie lives a hundred years. AI.IKVS AMI 111 Kilt IIK.HTS Mrs. Parsons, wife of the condemned anarchist, is still going about over the country haranguing all whom she can gtr to listen to her. During the post five weeks she is said to have spoken twenty- two times and in seven different states. As o reason assigned by her for makuig I hose speeches she says “if these anarch ists must die, I want it to lie public and the people to know what they die for." It will doubtless occur to flie average reader that Mrs. Parsons is putting her self to a great deal of unnecessary trouble. Thu country lias been very generally informed us to why these un- arehists were sentenced to be hung. But there is a phase in such murder ous and incendiary talk as that in which this brutal woman engages thatdeinands some notice at the hands of tiie public authorities. The socialists of England, taking tl.e cue from such vile lips, have resolved that the American people are tyrants and murderers for convicting and condemning tiie Chicago conspirators. That is all right. Nobody can object to their right to think what they please of us and to say it ut homo. It is only when they come hero, on our side, under our jurisdiction, and in defiance of courtesy, decency and common sense, arraign our law or process of trial, our methods of enforcement, our means of self protec tion and insolently toll us that we are “atrocious murderers” for dealing with our law-breakers in our own way, that tiie censure of adverse opinion becomes an insult to us, and a shame to all who approve it. The English socialists oah [lass resolutions until doomsday if they so desire, and no American citizen will give them a single moment’s serious con sideration. The case changes, though, when such conduct is carried on upon our own bor ders. Mrs. Parsons should be put upon tiie same footing with these “socialistic reformers” who assume to pass judgment on our domestic laws and meth ods of government and tell us that they are abominable and cruel. The aliens, anil the murderous-hearted woman may be classed with them, who are living hero and hold the same as sumption of a right to denounce the laws they didn’t make to tiie faces of those who did, need a good Meal of that sort of admonition which will be administered to the Chicago anarchist. Aliens have aright to live here and be protected in person and property by our laws, anil that is all they have. They have no right to hold public meetings for insult, denunciation and annoyance of the citizens who allow them a residence here that they are not allowed at home, and they need to have that limitation on their insolence pretty deeply impressed on them. William Hunky Smith, general man ager of the Associated Press, lias been to Europe on business. On his return the other da}, he ^..pressed the beliel'llmt a general European war was imminent. The question is, could the general man ager of a news agency sit in judgment upon such u crisis without unconsciously leaning toward a result which would be prolific of news? TInrdly. Tub other night ex-Gov. Rutherford B. Haves was robbed of liis valise inn depot in Cincinnati. The thief evidently didn’t know lie was stealing from one of the “pvrl'esh.” But lie stole only a valise, while the victim stole the presi dency. If the thief of the valise is caught and sent to the penitentiary, where ought the pnrloiner of a continent to appear? Tun mugwumps congratulate them selves on being “on the box’’and driving the administration. It partakes of the nature of the kettle calling tin- pot him k, but the New York Sun very pertinently says “it is customary in most parts of the country, and perhaps even in Boston, for the persons'inside, and not outside of the carriage, to say where it shall go. This is not the ease with the hearse, however, a vehicle most sympathetic to the mug wump mind.” It is said that the grand jury of Bibb county will scion make gome startliugdis- closures in regard to the Moore lynching which will he supplemented by indict ments. Several parties connected with the affair are said to have disappeared after Governor Gordon offered a reward for the apprehension of the lynchers. It is to be hoped that full justice will be meted out. Unless some radical redress is had, tiie outrage w ill canopy Macon with a cloud for yeans to come. Tin: Boston Journal of Commerce is disposed to take a hopeful view of the outlook of tilings. It says the general business of the country remains in a re markably healthy, though conservative condition. There have been reports from some sections of the country indicating a slacking up in the activity that lms been noted, yet this is not looked upon unfa vorably, but rather ns furnishing evi dence of a disposition to continue a sale business policy. In a few localities money if more difficult to obtain at low- rates, but thjs is not general, and money is comparatively easy throughout the country. We note a good fueling in the dry goods trade, among the commission houses and jobbers. Cotton goods are in a firm position and many mills are well sold ahead of production, at remunera tive prices. ill woolens, the position is good, though the margin for profit is small. Manufacturers are doing all they e.in to force up prices on their products, without- affecting the volume of sales, so as to bring them more in accordance with tiie p-iees of raw material. Tins sincere eulogies which tiie papers have accorded to the memory of the lute ex-Presidmit Arthur attest the almost universal esteem in which he was held. It ha- been aptly said that he was put on tin: ticket in 1880 us a makeweight, anil that he drew the capital prize in the lottery of assassination. But no ordinary man was ever elevated to an extraordi nary position, and sustained himself bet ter than Arthur did. He was faithful and just in all his multiplied relations as chief magistrate of a great republic. And it might he truly written on liis tomb stone that lie “fought the fight and kept the faith,” us a public official at least. WHAT Til K Kill I HUS NAY. Some of the best farmers in the state live in liuncock county, but Sid Lewis ought not to gull the people with such a tale as tliis: Frank White, of Hancock county, mnde ■ ix heavy hales of cotton oil tiie five acre patches about his house. Boll worms and dry weather out short the yield. • It is about time to begin abusing the legislature and the Albany Ne-.vs thus slurta the ball in mo tion : It. is safe to say that tiie present legislature, like all its predecessors since tiie adoption of tile new constitution, will havoto hold a sunnnerses- sion to finish up its business. In referring to tiie statement in the Enquikbk- Sun that the late Mr. Wales Wynton left Macon under a cloud, but denied the charges of com plicity in the scandals concerning that city, the Macon Telegraph says: Lest this may be accepted as correct, to the dis advantage ot the people of Macon, we feel called upon to say, Mr. Wynton admitted tiie truth of the charges. We hold his admission in his own handwriting, together with the names of some ofthose who aided him In tiie transaction re ferred to. After a little domestic affair Harry Edwards goes back to liis oifice anil pens the following: The hand ofthe small boy is against the world, and tile world’s hand is against him. There is an irrepressible conflict continually waging be tween them. Nobody lias yet been discovered who can manage a small hoy, except his mother. Against every other hand he is a defiant and unconquerable rebel. Just as we were about to call attention to the fact that our evening cotemporary, the Ledger, was unusually bright and interesting yesterday afternoon, the following paragraph from the Atlanta Capitol attracted our attention: We are glad to note the fact that, the Colum bus Enquirer-Sun gave its new evening cotem porary a graceful welcome. It is a common prac tice witli old and established papers to try and kill new ones by studiously ignoring them. The commonness of this practice makes the course of the Enquirer-Sun conspicuous and worthy of commendation. And why should not the Enquirer-Sun extend it a cordial welcome ? It professes to have the interest of Columbus at heart, and instead of having a quarrel we wish anything that will help our city God speed. That it is edited by one of the most gifted and accomplished ladies in the city only increases the kind wishes we entertain for it. BABY'S SCULP It has pawn to be a habit among our esteemed northern brethren to decry the south with regard to educational facili ties. While we may not lie up to the full standard ol‘ duty in this respect, it was not always tints. The south, before the war, in proportion to white popula tion, taking man for man, sustained a larger number of colleges, with more pro fessors, more students and at a greater annual cost than was done in any section of the union. The same thing is true of academies and private schools. If tiie census of lStiO, as taken by the United States authorities, bo correct, the white population in the northern states in that year was nearly lh,000,000, and that of the southern only a little over 8,000,000. At that time the north had 205 colleges, the south 272; the north 1-107 professors, the south 1488; the north had 20,014 stu dents, the south 27,024; the north paid for these colleges $1,514,205, the south $1,002,410. Mr. Guoroe W. Ciiilds has been offer ed the nomination for mayor of 1’hihuU i- pliia and lias refused it. Mr. Childs would make a very different mayor from (hose men who have been holding that office for several terms past in Philadel phia. And it is to be regretted that he positively declined to be a candidate, when iris election is practically assured. Bqjt along with liis declination comes the pleasant fact and the healthy sign of the times that our great cities are turning toward their best citizens when a new mayor is wanted. Philadelphia wants George W. Childs, Chicago wants Rob ert Lincoln and New York already lias Abram S. Ilewitt Milk Crust, Dandruff, Eczema, and all Scalp Humors Cured by Cuticura. I AST November my little boy, aged three years, 1 lull against the stove while he was running and cut his head, and, right after that, he broke out all over his head, face and left ear. I had a good doctor, Dr. , to attend him, but he got worse, and the doctor could not cure him. His whole head, face and left ear were in a fearful state, and he suffered terribly. 1 caught the dis ease from lnm, and it spread all over my face and neck, ami even got into my eves. Nobody thought we would ever get better. I felt sure we were dis figured lor life. 1 heard of the Cuticura Reme dies, and procured a bottle of Cuticura Resolvent, a box ol Cuticura, and a cake of Cuticura Soap, an«l used them constantly day and night. After using two bottles of Resolvent, four boxes of cuti- euru and four cakes of Soap, we are perfectly cured without a scar. My boy’s skin is now like Batin.
