Mr Cleveland linn proven tlmt ho i a bigger man than the Democratic parly and its platform combined. ("ongi'-asman Black liar not au thorised the statement wlik-h is go iny the rounda of lie press, that he will not ho n candidate for Congress nt the next election. Certain hopeful Democrats claim that, the Hhcrman law being out of way, financial and other legislation, in harmony with the Democratic p itfomi, will be enacted. Well, wo w II see. The most brazen piece of affront ci v of the century is the effort of certain papers to road Democrats out I of the party because they insist tlmt the pledges and promises made to the people shall he fulfilled. —— - - The President persistently de mands unconditional repeal, and it iH announced that the silver Senators will give up the fight and that the repeal measure will soon be p issed. This, in all probability, will seal the doom of silver as a money metal, lit least so far as the present Congress is concerned. But it is going to bo ft lending issue in the next campaign The biggest of all big con volition is lo be held in Atlanbi commencing November !•- Ton thousand dele gates, representing the Christian Workers, from alj portions of tin world, are expected A'Junta will put on her Sunday clothes and en tertain the convention with charac teristic and noble hospitality, and will brag ab out it for the next ten years. Our columns nro too much crowd ed for more than a brief notice of ■tlio mass 11100(111;,' of Populists hold in Thomson on Friday last. The crowd in aftondance was the largest ever seen in Thomson, many of them having come from distant localities. The number was variously estimated all tbo way from 3,000 to 10,000, and Borne claimed even highr tigures. Measts J. T. VVo.it, C. IT McGreg gor, M I. Branch and 'V. hi. Strother delivered short speeches. The ud dress, however, in which the chief interest centered was that of Mr. ‘Watson. 11 is address was argument ative and highly coiiHOvative. lie cin ceded to his political opponents honesty and sincerity of opinion, and disc’aimoil any unkind feeling to wards them In the afternoon the big crowd dispersed, and we state to their credit that wo have never known hotter order observed 011 sueli occasion.

Ah you all know, •>ime I have como up here to college, 1 have very little time to eorrenpomi with a pa| or.

I'irat of all. I will tell you about, exhibits in the Transportation l'lnildin , because it seems that we people of this time are very concerned as to Uow we ere going to get horn one pluoo to suother.

'1 he quickest way to ; et from one place to atiolhc ris to astride the telegraph wires, ] Yrlmpa the safest plan is to walk but even then we are liable to fall into some big guUy. 01.0 ano nkw locomotives, 1 will describe as near as I can the first engine and train that was run out of Chi cago, and then tho laige “mogull" engine which was standing beside tho first. Tho idea used to be in building an engine to make the boiler small and the smoke-stack like a tower, that is, very high. Now it is very difleront. The boilers are made ex travagantly large and the smoke-stack very aLoit. The engine that was attached to the ©oodles, for they were stag© coaches.) was aural!, ugly little thing. 1 thiuh if 1 were uaod to living in wmie of the dense to rests of Aiuenou and hud never seen a locomo tive, if 1 were to see that engine coming through the woods, I would bo frightened worse than if a drove of buffaloes were coining ut me with full apeoct I wish I could remember dales like some people car*.
