New bills are now being introduced

of their ctwracter and utility.
Among the many hills intr. duced
thus far, we notice one liy SenntorUuin
mil g, to prevent any one from inherit
ing property who is in any way respon¬
sible for the death of the person from
whom the property descends.
This seems to be a wise and righteous
provision, and v.e hope it will become

A Foolish Request.
The populist members of the legisla¬
ture have already made themselves re
diculous by their foolish conduct in
that body.
On Monday, before the election of
judges and solicitors took place, the pop¬
ulist members made a written request
for leave of absence from the two houses
during the election.
Their excuse for making such a redic
uioiis request wits that tiie candidates for
judges and solicitors of the various judi
cisl circuits had been selected or agreed
upon bv a democratic caucus.
The request for leave of absence for
the entire array of populists was too re
dieulous to be considered, and it was
not granted.
They then took no part in the election.
Here is the Ticket to Vote.
Here i? the ticket to vote to day, and
you fa liould be careful that you vote no
other.
It is the regular prescribe 1 legtl form
for the congressional ticket, and you
must he sure that the ticket you vote is
just like it.
To vote any other sort of ticket than
one like this, might result in its being
thrown out, in case of a contest, and
thue endangering the election of Col.
Livingston, the democratic nominee.
Therefore, vou should examine your
ballot closely, and see that it is all right.
Hete is the official and correct legal
form for the democratic ticket:
FOR CONGRESS ;
For Representative in the 54'h Congress
From 5 th District of Georgia,

We Oppose the Change.
A bill lias been introduced in the leg¬
islature to change the manner of elect¬
ing judges and solicitors which we think
is a bad bill, and ought not to become
a law.
The bill provides for the election of
these officers by the people, instead of
the legislature.
We believe such a change is an un¬
wise one, and is not needed for the im
proveroent and elevation of the jndi
clary of the state. No judge should
sit upon the bench, in any court, for
the trial of cases t.etw een people to
whom lie is under obligation for his
elec'iou. It would he an embarrassing
position, to say the least of it, and the
judiciary should be kept free from all
such obligations.
We are satisfied with the present
plan of the legislature electing these
officers, and hope the bill will not pass.
Governor Northen.
[Atlanta Commercial.]
Governor Northen today gives up the
helm of state and re enters the walks of
private life, with the love, respect and
commendation of the people of Geor
gia.
His has been a distinctively dean and
sensible administration. No man ever
wore gubernatorial honors since Georgia
was a state who was more richly entitled
to the praise of the w hole people for
wisdom, justice and integrity, than Gov
ernor Northen.
His administration has been absolute
ly free from even the rumor of scandal,
and his judgment has been so displayed
as to make it almost free front mistake.
He has been as nearly an idol governor
as the people ever select, and he has
won a place in the hearts of Georgians
that is held by few men in any era.
The Commercial takes pleasure in
paying this deserved trihuteof praise to
a man whose fame readies beyond the
limits of the state, and in wishing for
him a future of rich reward and happi¬
ness we express the sincere feeling of
every citixen who loves honesty and
courage.

olutionary soldier?. Their ages range

ing the past year was $139,804,461.05.

Governor Atkinson,
Gov. Atkinson Inis started off well
I I wiih his official work.
He was inducted into the gubernatori¬
al office on Saturday,and at once entered
upon the discharge of his official duties
with an ease and charming dignity that
gives assurance to his fiiends that his
administration is going to be an active,
progressive and popular one.
In the Atlanta Daily Commercial, of
Monday, we find the following compli¬
mentary refeience to our new governor,
which we reproduce and heartily en¬
dorse :
I I Having been elected to office after one ol
the most brilliant campaigns for the nomina¬
tion that has ever been known in the history
of the state, he goes to the gubernatorial
chair with the sympathy of a vigorous citizen¬
ship and endorsement of a successful democ¬
racy.
The Commercial predict* that his adminis¬
tration will be a most successful one—abso¬
lutely free fr<m scandal or taint—and that
when his term of office expires, the people,
with one accord, wilt bestow upon him the
praise that is due a wise, just and patriotic
public official
Wc extend him and his gifted wife and in
teresting family a cordial greeting to this their
home, for the next two years, and bespeak for
them the highest consideration of an apprecia¬
tive community."

NATHAN NIMROD,
A Word About 5 Cent
It is true that five cents is a very
price for cotton, but it is not so bad
most people seem to think.
The trouble ie, i^wo may be
ted to call it trouble, everything is
cheap now. This is because there
an overproduction of everything.
But the truth is, cotton is just
as good at 5 cents, with everything
cheap, as it was when it was high.
In proof of tin’s we give herewith
copy of a bill-of goods purchased
1882, when cotton was 11 cent?, and
comparison of it with the prices of
same goods in 1894, witli cotton at
cents a pound, shows that thegoods
nearly double in 1882 w hat they
worth today, which is relatively
the same difference between tire
of cotton now and the price in 1832.
So, you see, there i? no use in
ing all our troubles to the low price
cotton. Everything else is low, and
must learn to be satisfied. The
lias advised the people tor 20 years
they ought to raise their supplies
home, and not depond on cotton
everything.
But here is the hill of goods.
