A WAIL FROM ROME.
MBUS.GA., DEC. 27, 1890.
TO CONTRACT ADVERTISERS.
Contract advertisers who desire to make
changes in their advertisements for Sun
day are requested to hand their copy in to
the business office by noon Saturday,
otherwise it may not be possible to prom
ise that such changes can be made. The
increased size of the Sunday issue and the
importance of making the early mails
renders this requirement imperative. Don’t
fail, therefore, to send in your changes by
noon Saturday.
The only criticism we have noticed of
the Western and Atlantic betterments
commission appears in the Rome Tribune.
The Tribune has heard of “developments
concerning the appointment of the Com
mission, and also regarding some of the
Commissioners,” that “ are exciting anx
ious inquiries among citizens who believe
the State’s interest should be guarded with
jealous care.”
One terrible development that disturbs
our contemporary is the fact that Gover
nor Xorthen held a conference with Sena
tor Brown and Major StahlmaD before ap
pointing the commission. This confer
ence was in the presence of ex-Attorney-
General Auderson, acting as the legal ad
viser of the Governor, and several mem
bers of the Western and Atlantic Com
mittee of the General Assembly. We fail
to see anythtng in this circumstance to ex-
cits and alarm the editor of the Tribune.
Another development that disturbs our
contemporary is the appointment of Judge
i C. D. McCutchen as a member of the Com
mission. Judge McCutchen is a warm
personal friend of Senator Brown, and has
been one of the attorneys of the Western
and Atlantic railroad under Senator
Brown’s administration as president. The
Tribune is needlessly alaimed about Judge
McCutchen. So far as we know, he is a
gentleman of high character and ability,
and the State’s interest will not suffer by
his presence on the Commission. The
Enquirer-Sun is not the special champion
of the Commission, but we have the fullest
confidence in Governor Xorthen and the
gentlemen he has selected as Commis
sioners.
The editor of the Tribune disclaims
being in search of mare’s nests but the
evidence is clearly against him.

The Augusta Chronicle thinks Hon. J.
C. C. Black would make a good Congress
man-at-large. So he would.
A paper in Los Angeles, California,
which has just suspended, sunk $150,000
during the four years it was published.
The “bachelor girl” is the term now
applied to the young woman Yvho leaves
the paternal home and strikes out for her-
self.
It was a lively Christmas and a pleasant
season despite the cry of hard times, and
best of all, Columbus is not compelled to
deplore any casualties or crimes.
A vote is being taken in Augusta for the
most popular drummer, who is connected
with the T. P. A. Whats the matter with
Col. Whack Bailey?
Governor Tillman has exercised his veto
power for the first time on the bill creating
a railroad commission for South Carolina.
This will naturally endear him to the
farmers of the State.
The West Georgia News, published at
Talbotton, gives Judge J. H. Martin the
additional title of “Gov.” As the News
is published at the home of Judge Martin,
we are not disposed to question the pro-
pritty of the title, especially as his honor
would make good gubernatorial timber.
The Opelika Industrial News warmly
approves ihe measure now pending in the
Alabama Legislature for another Supreme
Court Judge, and proposes Judge J. R.
Dowdell, of the Fifth judicial circuit for
the position, and claims that he is the
peer of any man in Alabama as a judge of
the law.
A forthcoming magazine article will be
entitled “Heroism in Journalism.” One
of its incidents will be a daring and peril
ous expedition made by John F. Finerty, of
Chicago, and three of Crook’s scouts
through the foot hills of the Black Hiils
nuige.
A young English gentleman, now visit
ing this country, criticises the Young
American swell for festooning a black
handkerchief into the waistcoat of his
dress suit, and terms it an abomination
which is never seen in good English st-
•eiely. That would seem to settle it for
the black handkerchief.
The people of Milwaukee are in a moral
mood, and have determined to allow no
theatrical posters to be placed on the bill
boards of that city until after they shall
have been inspected and approved by the
Council. Agents of theatrical companies
will have to get a special meeting of the
Council called and display their illustrated
pictures to that august body before they
can close a contract with the bill poster.
A DELIGHTFUL SKETCH.
In the Christmas edition of the Augusta
Chronicle, Editor Stovall’s “Christmas
Sketches in the Country” was a rare treat
to the readers of that popular journal. Mr.
Stovall is one of the most graceful writers
on the Georgia press, and his literary work
shows the touch of artist and poet in full
sympathy with his subject. We have seen
nothing more pleasing from his pen than
these Christmas sketches in the country,
and regret the lack of space to reproduce
them all. The following is an extract from
the fox hunt and a fleeting picture of the
Georgia girl in the chase, which our read
ers, who are foud of this sport and love
the Georgia girl, will appreciate:
Listen to the music of the old hound as
her unerring yelp is heard way down in
the hollow ! All the other dogs leave off
their trails and follow her. A long line of
slender, sinewy creatures streek in full
cry. There is no melancholy in their
voices now—it is a cheerful, hopeful, lusty,
bark—and the woods ring again. The
chase is headlong. The horses know the
country better than their riders. They
charge through the gray mists, clear
ditches and dart down declivities in a way
that brings a man’s heart into his mouth
and leaves his blood tingling along the
vacuum in his veins. The ride is uncer
tainty and desperation, but the warmth of
fresh eggs and good rum is with you, and
the unconquerable feeling of the chase is
yours.
“But look how your companion rides !
She is a lithe, shapely young girl. Her
bright hair curls over her face and floats
in defiant waves behind her. She has
surrendered her saddle and habit to city
company, and resting sideways on her
mount, her short skirt shows a high arched,
slender foot, well planted in the stirrup.
She is not thinking of her pictuesque look.
Her blue eyes are fairly ablaze,and the soft,
slouch hat completes her hunter’s garb.
She darts through the canehrake and pines
like a trim arrow towards the river where
the chase is drawing to a close. Even the
fleet and clear-headed coach is distanced
by this mountain soubrett.e, who looks like
Margaret Mather and rides like Amelie
Rives.”
A young newspaper man who last spring
found himself in Whitman county, Wash
ington, 600 miles from his base of supplies
»nd “broke,” hired out to a farmer. He
was set to plowing with a pair of horses,
but, both man and beasts being new to
the business, the furrows looked as if they
■were the result of an earthquake rather
than of design, so crooked and zigzag were
they. At the close of the day the farmer
rather testily criticised the job. The
newspaper man felt that his doom was
sealed, but mustered courag ; to reply:
know the rows are rather crooked, but the
sun was exceedingly hot today, and it
warped them.” The answer turned away
the farmer’s wrath, and, instead of being
discharged, the new-comer was given a
much easier and pleasanter job, and is now
the farmer's son-in-laYV. Thus does the
good newspaper man sometimes get his
reward for fearless truth and honesty.
The Americus Times, speaking of the
State Road, says:
“It is now Supposed to be worth $5,000,-
000; and when we repeat that only a few
years ago H. Victor Newcomb offered to
pay the State’s debt of about’$12,000,000
and take it, there seems to be grounds for
regret that bis offer was not accepted,
especially when the fact is borne in mind
that since his offer the State has paid out
in interest on this same bonded debt over
half the present value of the road, a sum
that should have gone to the public school
fund, instead of the foreign holders of the
bonds.”
Perhaps the sale of the road would have
been the best disposition of it, but our
contemporary should remember that the
old lease paid into the State Treasury $6,-
000,000, the estimated value of the prop
erty, and the new lease will pay nearly
twice as much more, and the State, at its
expiration, still owns it, and the public
schools will have beeD the largest bene
ficiary of the magnificent income.
The recent banquet of the Reform Club
of New York was a memorable event, and
attracted the attention and interest of the
country. The New York Times, conclud
ing a congratulatory article on the occa
sion, says:
“With so many speakers representing
the Northeast, the Northwest, and the
South and Southwest, there was at the
banquet no discordant note and no dissen
tient views, for the simple reason that tar
iff reform is based upon general principles
that affect the interests of the great mass
of the people alike, and not upon the con
flicting claims of special interests. This
celebration marks an incidental pause in
the progress of a great popular movement.
While the Reform Club is congratulating
itself upon what has been accomplished
and upon the hopeful signs of the present,
it is looking toward the future, which is to
be full of work for tariff reformers. It has
been a powerful agency in educating the
people, and it will be influential in direct
ing their action hereafter. It has done a
public service in bringing together the
leaders in tariff reform to exchange views
and stimulate each other to zeal and effort
in what remains to be done.”
The following from the Man About
Town in the New York Star, and the fact
that the Democrats have redeemed the
State of Iowa, should make Georgians feel
kindly disposed towards all good Iowans:
I was much struck with the simplicity
and kindness shining out from the face of
Governor Boise, of Iowa, when I saw him
in a group of public men brought together
by a significant political event in this city.
I never have, been able to understand, by
the way, where Iowans get their Southern
characteristics; but they certainly possess
such characteristics in a marked degree.
This was true of several Iowans whom I
have recently met, and peculiarly true of
F. W. Lehmann, late of Des Moines, an
Iowan well known to many New Yorkers.
His friends here will be sorry to know that
in leaving Des Moines he has pitched upon
St. Louis, instead of New York, as a place
of residence.
THE STRIKE AT HULL.
London, December 20.—One thousand

VICTIMS OF FIRE.
Rochester, N, Y. December 26.—A
terrible conflagration occurred this morn
ing about five o’clock, whereby a woman
and three children lost their lives. The
victims were Mrs. John Dietrich and three
children, six and three years, and eleven
months old. Where the fire originated is
a mystery. Mrs. Dietrich arose at four
o’clock to start the fire in the kitchen
stove. She awakened her husband soon
after with an alarm of fire. She rushed in
to save her children and perished in the
flames. The husband and one son es
caped.
HEAVY SNOW AT PITTSBURG.
Pittsburg, Penn., December 20.—An

has been snowing steadily for eighteen
hoars with no indications of cessation.
Between twelve and fourteen inches have
already fallen. All trains are several hours
behind time. Street car traffic on all but
the cable road is temporarily suspended.

Atlanta, Ga.—Some time ago I had a

the most thorough, searching examination
known to the medical profession. I tried

authorities, hut without being able to re

It takes a great deal to make some of them that way. We might hint that if you
buy goods this week as lively as you ought, it will make us feel much better, but as we
