If the Farmers Alliance is tojjmaintain the influence it has obtained in the politi cal world, it mnst beware of entanglement with either of the old parties; it must also steer clear of men identified with mono polistic corporations. It is given out that President Harrison bases his hopes of renomination and re- election almost solely on the passage of the Force Bill, but that if the Senate should refuse to adopt the measure he will not offer for renomination, as he will construe this action as a condemnation of his administration. The Georgia weeklies are getting over their Christmas fun and are beginning to come in more regularly. To the Republican party: Don’t butt your brains out against the force bill. Save your party for us until 1892, please. One Georgia editor tells us that he had turkey for Christmas. Such a remarka ble occurence is worth more-than a pass ing mention. It will be strange if one man—Speaker Reed—he allowed to prevent the House of Representatives passing a free coinage bill at this session of congress. American people ate going daft over the new game of “Tiddledewinks.” It is TTame, having originated in London. Hon. J. C. Clements introduced a hill in Congress, on December 1st, to provide for the full and unlimited coinage of standard silver dollars, and for other purposes. Mr. Wanamaker is advocating penny postage. That’s right. Since we have a penny president and a penny postmaster- general the penny theory might he further put into practice. Pres. Polk of the National Farmers’ Alliance stated.a rock-ribbed truth when he said at the Ocala convention: If Con gress does not get nearer to the people the people will get nearer to Congress. To Congress: Why not give the people a little legislation; one cent letter postage for instance. A bill has been introduced by Senator Cullom; now let the Senate committee on post-offices see that it is re ported back to the Senate with a favorable r ecommendation. The force hill is a “dead cock in the pit.” The rampant element of the Re publican party even has about given up the idea of securing its passage. Like the Force bill, the Republican party is al so gasping in the throes of approaching dissolution. Democracy is the hope of the Union. Failures for lack of available money are growing more and more numerous in the commercial world, yet Congress has taken no effective step towards practical relief by increasing the amount of money in circulation. Bills by the dozen have been introduced, but it will require more than that to satisfy the clamorings of the people. Even Secretary Noble has been moved to express indignation at the amount of plunder which the pension agents are get ting out of the pension system. He dis- approves of the robbery by which the sharks manage to secure $150,000 to $375,- 000 per week out of the money which the government pays to its pensioners in cases for services that are entirely unnec essary. It is estimated that the newspapers of the country uave spent a great deal more money in telegraph tolls, since the Sioux Indiap scare began, than would have been requiied to have quartered every living member of that tribe at a first class hotel the entire winter. It might have been added that if all the mis-statements and exaggerations had been eliminated from these special dispatches, that Jay Gould’s profits on telegraph toll would not have been sufficient to buy him a lunch at a cheap restaurant. Sitting Bum,, the big chief of the Sioux, has passed in his checks and jour neyed to the happy hunting grounds. He, his son Crowfoot, and several other Indians, were killed at Standing Rock agency; on December 15th, while resist ing arrest. There will doubtless be com parative peace in certain portions of the Northwest now, as one of the worst In dians in the country is out of the way. Sitting Bull was always a disturbing ele ment in his tribe,-and was not happy un less inciting liis braves to warfare. The New York Herald still sticks to its boom for Charles A. Dana for U. S. Sen ator from New York, which is a little pe culiar for the Herald; but he this as it may, New York would make a great po litical blunder to elect Dana to the Sen ate. He is undoubtedly an able man, but he is notoriously unreliable. Senator Stanford made a speech in the Senate in favor of his bill loaning govern, ernment money on farm mortgages at 2 per cent, per annum. This proposition is certainly a new departure; but the bill, which has been referred to the finanee committee, should be acted upon by the committee and Senate—not pigeon-hold- ed just because it happens to be an inno vation on present financial methods. Ev erything has to have a beginning, and this would be a mighty slow old world if something wasn’t started occasionally. It does not now appear probable that a free coinage hill will be passed at the present session of Congress. It is admit ted by all well-informed persons that a majority of both the House and the Sen ate are in favor of the bill, but the trouble lies in the fact that those who control the legislation that comes before Con gress are opposed to it. It is only theo retically that a majority controls in Con gress. Practically it is less than a,dozen men that control its every action, by de ciding what legislation shall be consid ered. The bill recently introduced in the House to prohibit trading in options on certificates for gold and silver bullion on deposit with trust companifes and other organizations, is one that cannot become a law too speedily. There has been en tirely too much speculation for the good of the country in these certificates, par ticularly those for silver bullion; and un less somebody is very badly mistaken, members of both House and Senate have had a hand in it. Let Congress end it forever by making this bill a law, now that it has an opportunity. Then there can be no more scandals of this sort. The apportionment bill which the een- Tnnrctmxi— The Indian Police. By the death of Sitting Bull the wili est politician of the Indian race is re moved to the happy hunting grounds. He will vex the white man no more by sneaking around behind the scenes and stirring up the other Indians to out break. He was never a great fighter, was Sitting Bull, but a medicine mm. He made medicine to keep the other red skins fighting at the Custer massacre, he himself continuing hia incantations in a safe spot, removed from the white man’s bullets. Peace to the old rascal’s ashes, such peace as he deserves, that is. What impressed the white reader most forcibly in the account of his death was the bravery and coolness of the Indian police who captured him and held him against heavy odds till the United^ States cavalry came up and relieved them. In policing the reservations" the. civilized rndi»n seems to have found his mission. He is yet too wild, too untrained in in dustry to take kindly to farm or factory drudgery, but the life of freedom afford ed by riding liis pony abroad from place to place through the reservations and keeping order is enough like the old sav age existence to satisfy him. The Indian police force is made up largely of the young men who have been educated in the states. They have as much book knowledge as the average white man and more mechanical skill, that being a part of their school training. They are brave, docile and faithful in difficult sit uations. At the beginning of the recent trou bles the ordinary police force of the reservations was largely increased by the addition of tall, athletic young braves from the friendly tribes. As soon as these enlisted, their long hair was cat short, some layers of gorgeous paint were scrubbed off their faces and bodies, and they were clad in Uncle Sam’s bright bine uniform, with its shining buttons. Then, copper color, blue and brass all mingling, the splendid young fellows mounted their ponies and dashed off to lead the United States troops against enemies of the Indian’s own race. The most heroic episode of the Indian outbreak of 1890 will he narrated in the aecount of the Indian scouts who sacrificed their lives to thqir fidelity to the white man while holding Sitting Bull against the attacks of his rescuers tiil the cavalry came up. The four brave '.■lows will live in song and story. LITERARY NOTES. Robert Loveman, of Birmingham, Ala., poet whose name is becoming well known through the popularity of his charming verses, has been spending the holiday season with his parents in this city. The brilliant journalist and lecturer, Henry Watterson, celebrated with his wife the 25th anniveraary of their marri age, in Louisville, Ky.. last week. Two thousand congratulatory messages were received from throughout the States. F. L. Stanton has a touching little po em of the New Year in Sunday’s Consti tution. Mr. Stanton’s work is character ized by the sweetness and truth that breathes through the lines, appealing to the reader’s better self.

We have received the January number of “Short Stories.” This magazine is new, but already commands much recog nition from contemporaries, by reason of its excellent reading matter, both orig inal and selected. It is a publication no reader or lover of literature should be without. The January number contains une jiuuivm nepreseu- tatives has agreed upon seems to be as fair as any measure prepared entirely by the members of one political party can be and we cannot see any reason for objection to its passage, except ft will add 24 mem hers to the House, which is already too large aDd unwieldy a body, but that ob jection was to be expected—politicians al ways go in for increasing offices. The North and West will, under this hill, get an “ etcWn S” of Tennessee mountain life IS and the South and Southwest 9 new members, and no State will lose any. Only one State, Nebraska, will get more than 2 new members. December and May. A strange story comes from Northport, L. I., but it is nevertheless a true one. The old fad of a rich heiress marrying the coachman has been modified by a wealthy old lady in her seventy-first year marrying her gardener. _ Ruth Chalmers, the bride in ques tion, is a lineal descsndent of the famous Aaron Burr, and her youngest unmarried daughter is just thirty-five years of age. She has a number of grand children, and lives in a handsome mansion on the Is land. The groom in question is Mr. Charles Sammis, an exemplary young man whose age is in the first part of the twenties. When Sammis addressed the lady for whom he has been doing garden work for a year, she evidently with matronly pro priety, informed him that she would not be a sister to him,but would do the grand mother act in great shape. Sammis evi dently had no grandmother and he took advantage of the opportunity by the ma trimony route. Sammis no longer wields the hoe, the spade and the rake on the premises of Mrs. Chalmers, but Mr. and Mrs. Sammis live in elegant ease, and leave that work for some other person. The Flurry in the Money Market, The recent Hurry in the money markets of the world has produced many disas trous results to speculators in this country and in Europe, hut aside from this it is gratifying to know that it has clearly dem onstrated the fact to the mind of the for- eign capitalist that no country on the face of the earth affords more secure oppor tunity for speculation or permanent in vestments than does the United States. Had the English holders of American se curities experienced the same difficulty in unloading their American stocks as they did in finding purchasers for their Argen tine and other bonds, the crash would have been terrible. While many millions of European capital has sought invest ment in this country during the past few years, we have yet to learn of a single in stance wherein the investor has failed to realize as fully as he was led to expect. This fact, coupled with recent experi ences, will tend to largely increase, the flow of the British capital to the United States, and as a result, we look for re newed prosperitym.the immediate future- To Nervous Debilitated Men.

Scribner, for January, is as delightful as ever. “Jerry,” the serial which has excited much attention of late, still con tinues, and Mr. Stanley’s paper on the African pygmies is quite interesting. There is an entertaining article about Japanese life and customs, and, among other good reading, a most thrillingly beautiful love story entitled, “A Truce.” This sketch is exquisitely written, and, with its triking phraseology, carries the reader in fancy to the sands, the mists and the wind-blown waters of the sea girt village where the scene is laid. with rheumatism, at times could hardly walk about—used Dr. Baker’s Blood and Liver Cure—am now entirely rid of the disease. John Towjclet, Firm of Townley & Hamilton, Dalton. Sold by F. O. Trevitt, Druggist, Look After the Children. Many a little darling has been taken away because through neglect their sys tem has been undermined and destroyed by worms. Such neglect is little better than murder, when the trouble can be so easily removed. Only a few doses of Dr. Hart’s Worm Cream would do' the work, and the little sufferers would soon show the unmistakable signs of returning health. Everybody seems to think that jour nalists lie continually—some of them do —on beds of roses. Senator Evarts, who one would suppose had been successful enough to satisfy the ambitious cravings of any ordinary man, says that if he had his life to go over again, he would become a journalist. There are a good many jour nalists who, if they had a chance to begin again, would prefer becoming almost any thing else. The moral of this is to stick to what you are at, and do the very best you can, letting the future take care of itself, a thing it has a habit of doing, whether you try to prevent it or not.

From our Regular Correspondent.} Washington, D. C., Dec. 26,1S90. Financial matters are nearing a crisis in the Senate, and if all the senators who have privately talked free coinage are prepared to vote for it in the Senate, nothing can prevent the adoption of a free coinage amendment to the financial hill, which has just been reported to the Senate, from the finance committee by Mr. Sherman. This bill is a very differ ent one from that which was first intro duced^ and the silver men are mad all through at the .committee for its action in striking out the section providing for the replacing of national hank notes by treasury notes, issued on purchases of silver bullion, and inserting in its place one authorizing- the Secretary of the Treasury to issue $200,000,000 in 2 per cent bonds; and they do not hesitate to say that they will combine outside of party lines and pass a free coinage amend ment to the committee’s hiH. Senator Stewart has already introduced a free coinage amendment, which will certainly receive the support of all of the republi can senators who are favorable to silver; but great pressure is being brought to bear on southern senators by the oppo nents of silver to prevent their voting for it, and if they can trade votes against it for votes against the election bill, they will gladly do so. Action on this question cannot possibly be staved off much longer, however much certain gentlemen would like to delay it, and it is expected that as soon as those senators who went home for Christmas return to their seats, the fight will he opened in dead earnest by the silver men who say they propose forcing the fight ing when once it begins. The democratic senators, having ab sented themselves to break a quorum in order to prevent the adoption of a reso lution offered by Mr. Hoar providing for a session to begin at 8 o’clock in the eve ning and be continuous until the election bill was disposed of, and having declined to consent to naming a time to begin vo ting upon that measure, Senator Aldrich has reported the much talked-of cloture rule, authorized by a recent republican caucus; hut reporting it and passing it are two things. The democrats will re sort to any and all sorts of tactics to de feat it, and they are counting upon the passive support of a number of repub licans; but I doubt very much whether they get it. The long drawn out agony is over, and Michigan has captured the seat upon the bench of the Supreme court left vacant by the death of the late Justice Miller, the fortunate man being Henry B. Brown, a gentleman who is not widely known in Washington, and whose name has never been publicly mentioned in connection with the position. Michiganders here say that he is an able lawyer, and that he will creditably fill the position. That the desire for more money is not confined to the west and northwest, as has been intimated, was fully proven by s resolution offered in the house by Mr. Blanchard, of Louisiana, setting forth the present remarkable stringency in the money market, and stating that it has been impossible in many places in the south to obtain advances of even $1.00 bale on cotton, and ordering “that the committee on banking and currency, be in 9 Kill -^rmnrltTiff fnr such an increase of “the legal tender cur rency of the county as, united with "the present supply of money in circulation and that being coined under existing laws, will increase the volume of money to $50 per capita of our population.” Senator Yoorhees in the course of speech against the election bill, uttered sentiment that will touch a responsive chord in the breast of every member of the Farmers’Alliance. He said: “When the twentieth century opens, it is my prayer and my belief that the farmers of the North and of"the South and of all sections of the country will have so uni ted and fraternized in their councils and policy that they will be in control of the government for the establishment of jus tice and equality and for the overthrow of class supremacy and malignant sec tionalism There is a rumor here, which is not generally credited, to the effect that Sen ator Ingalls and Farwell, who are now in their respective States seeking re-elec tion, had been promised enough Demo cratic votes to elect them in return for their votes against the election bill Chief Powderly, of the Knights of La bor, was here a few days ago, making ar rangements for the. national labor con vention, which he proposes calling at an early day to meet in this city. He is also interested in the establishment here of the headquarters of the National Citi zen’s Alliance. The motto of the House seems to he “assume a virtue if you have it not.” It took a recess from Tuesday afternoon un til to-day, when it knew that there were ninety-nine chances out of a possible hun dred that it could do no business until af ter the first of the year, owing to the ab sence of a quorum. The Senate is almost as bad. After announcing that it would sit right along, it was compelled to ad journ from Wednesday to Saturday. The Great American Chorus. Sneering, sniffling and coughing.
