MENWHORUNTHE FARMS
A STRONG SENTIMENT IN FAVOR
OT AN EXHIBIT AT CHICAGO.
Col. Lyon Turns the Attention of the
Meeting to the Subject—Regret Ex
pressed for Cos!. Peek’s Opposition.
Mrs. Felton Makes a Strong Speech
Setting Forth the Interest of the
La£:s a m the Subject.
Ccthbkst, Ga., Feb. ll.—Today’s sec
tion of the agricultural society was of
special interest to the general public in that
it showed the real se.itimeut of the state of
Georgia :n regard to the making of a state
exhibit at the world’s fair in Chicago. The
first address of the morning session was bv
CoL T. J. Lyon of Carters ville on the cotton i
acreage. Col. Lyon took advantage of the
opportunity to answer the arguments in his
speech yesterday about the depression and
its causes. iDoidentally Col. Lyon made some
strong points in favor of the world’s fair
movement, and lamented the fact that Col.
Peek had taken occasion to oppose the enter
prise!. That part of his address had a good
effect on all his hearers.
MBS. FELTON'S SPEECH.
The programme fixed it that Col. Lyon
■hould oe followed by Mrs. Felton, who
spoke upon the work which Georgia women
might do for the fair, and how she pro
posed, in conjunction with Mrs. Olmst°ad
of Savannah, the other lady manager for
Georgia, to thoroughly organize the work
among the women, and see that every field
of work in which the ladies of Georgia are
engaged should have representation ;along
with the natural resources of the state.
Mrs. Felton’s remarks were eloquent and
faer argument convincing. She let it be
understood that Georgia women had taken
a band in this laudable scheme, and would
bear their share of the burden.
MR. HALI-’S RESOLUTION.
But the incident which shows the true
sentiment of the state in regard to the
world’s fair exhibit was the offering of a
resolution by Roland B. Hail of Macon that
It was the sense of the meeting that Georgia
should be represented at Chicago, and thnt
the money necessary should be raised by
popular su! scription. The convention was
a unit when it came to a vole. If there was
a man present so unpatriotic as to oppose
the resolution he was afraid to make him
self known as being in such a hopeless
minority. Luckily for him and hts
friends, CoL I'eek had left during the
night and the disciple of government loans
was not here to see the overwhelming de
feat of bis own opinion, which be was brave
enough to foist upon the convention yester
day.
After this Prof. White of the college of
Agriculture at Athens addressed the society
upon the subject of farmers’ institutes, and
closed with a talk on agricultural chem
istry.
The convention then adjourned for din
kier.
PRACTICAL AGRICULTURE.
At the afternoon session Prof. Hunnicutt
delivered an address upon practical agri
culture, Commissioner Nesbitt read a paper
on the cotton acreage advising reduction of
the acreage and the application of inten
sive methods by the farmers.
Prof. George F. Payne, the state chemist,
read a valuable paper on chemical fertilizers
and their effect upon plant life.
Dr. Newton of Athens presented resolu
tions looking to the formation of ladies'
garden clubs throughout the state.
A resolution was passed thanking the
citizens of Cutbbert for their hospitality
toward the delegatee.
Capt. O. A. Barry offered a resolution
calling on Georgia’s congressmen and sena
tors to vote in favor of some measure to sup
press dealing in futures, which was unani
mously passed.
After some memorials to recently deceased
officers, the society decided by an almost
unanimous vote to hold the February meet
ing at Friffin. Macon was the only other
city sending an invitation.
The executive committee at Its meeting
to-night decided to hold a fair at Macon,
provided the city council would allow them
the use of the grounds. If not, then the
premium committee was given power to
arrange for the holding of a fair in some
other city.

SAND AS A MIND DEVELOPER.
How Children Are Able to Make Mate
rial Images of Thoughts With It.
From the Chicago Inter Ocean.
The sand tables were placed before the
members of the mothers' class who met at
the Art Institute yesterday morning. This
time they were filled with wet sand insteed
of the dry sand used in the previous lessou.
Wooden balls, oubes and cylinders were
given to each, and directions for making
forms of beauty, border patterns and group
work followed.
"You have here,” said Mrs. Harrison,
* ’an opportunity for working out all kinds
of deooi alive ideas and for familiarizing the
child with the geometrio forms which under
lie all true decorative art. Each one of you
may design for me a border pattern of
squares and circles. See how simple and
yet what variety can be developed.”
Next followed a series of number lessons
given by the arrangement of imprints in
twos, threes and the like , counting each
tune how many groups of impressions had
been made and how many in all. Next was
given suggestions for play which would help
to make definite position and direction.
"The sand of the Beashore,” continued
the teaoher, “or its miniature substitute,
the sana table in the nursery, can become
arithmetic, geography, blackboard, can
vas, or moulding table, as you
wish; but its chief office is
to help young children express in outer
form the world Within. Band one of
the liest play materials for co-oporativo
work with a group of children—a much
needed experience if we are to prepare
them for their future activity in life, as
nothing worth speaking of is ever done
without harmonious co-operation.
The second hour was given to the study,
with Mrs. Beebe, of Froebel's “Song of the'
Target.” in which play come the first im
pression of that great law of compensation
which rules all life and is the guiding
principal of the philosophio mind. This,
froebel shows, can best be impressed upon
the childish mind by use of symbols.
The subject of symbols and symbolic
teaching of childhood will be taken up next
week.
“Lsn’t it tiresome for women to sit down and
talk fashion?”
"Yes,” replied the dyspeptic husband, “but It
is a good deal more tiresome for them to go out

THE MORNING NEWS: FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 12, 1892.
PARTY LINES IN DEBATE.
LIVELY TALK OVER AN ASSISTANT
DOOR KHEFE3.
Mr. Fithian of 11 tools Complains That
Xhe Democrats Are Showing the
Republicans Too Much Consideration
in the Matter of Appointments—The
Military Academy Appropriation Bill
Again Taken Up for Debate.
Washington, Feb. 11. —In the House to
day Mr. Buchanan of Virginia, from the
committee on the judiciary, reported a bill to
regulate the manner in which property
shall be sold under orders and decrees of the
United States courts. It was put on the
House calendar.
Mr. Culberson of Texas, from the same
committee, reported a bill to limit the
jurisdiction of the United States circuit
and district courts. It was put on the
House calendar.
A NEW ASSISTANT DOORKEEPER.
The committee on accounts reported a
resoluti on for the appointment of Walter
F. Halloekas an assistant doorkeeper.
Mr. Meredith of Virginia paid a high
tribute to the qualities of the gentleman
whom it was proposed to appoint. He had
served gallantly in the union army as a ma
jor; had on several occasions exhibited
marked bravery, and had received many
wounds, one of which had destroyed the
sight of an eye,
Mr. Raines of New York objected to the
resolution. He bad no fault to find with the
gentleman suggested, nor did he question
his ability to perform the duties which
would bo assigned to him. But the soldiers’
roll of the House was now evenly balanced
bet ween the democrats and republicans, and
this appointment would disturb that bal
ance. If it was the desire to give Mr. Hal
lock a place, another place than
that proposed could be found for
him. In one of the rooms of the
capitol was employed a man who had been
appointed by the doorkeeper as reward for
the treachery of a man named Edwards in
the New York state Senate. This man was
a republican. He (Mr. Raines), as a repub
lican, said that he had no business here
under a democratic House. Let him step
out.
FITHIAN OBJECTS.
Mr. Fithian of Illinois thought that it was
time the democratic majority of the House
was coming to its senses. Y’esterday it had
passed a resolution giving two messengers
to the minority of the House, to-day another
resolution was proposed for an assistant
doorkeeper, and to-morrow he supposed
another resolution would come in giving
some place to some pet of some gentleman.
He was opposed to this thing. It
was time that the line should be
drawu.
Mr. Meredith inquired whether the gentle
man would not take the word of the door
keeper that this appointment was neoes
sary.
Mr. Fithian replied that he would not.
The doorkeeper was anxious, like every
other man, to get bis pets in office.
Mr. Butler of lowa said that the House
was to determine to-day whether its legisla
tion was to be based on sentiment or reason;
whether its action should be based on the
judgment of men or on the sentiment of the
people, who did not know the difference
between wind and patriotism.
Mr. Blount earnestly opposed the resolu
tion. No reason had been presented why
this additional appointment should be
made. He trusted that the House would
put an end to these unnecessary appoint
ments.
Mr. Simpson hoped the democrats would
understand that the time had come for
some legislation. Ho was afraid yesterday
that they had lost sight of this fact and
were about to establish anew system of
reciprocity. He saw no need for this ap
pointment and thought the time had come
to oall a halt.
The resolution was overwhelmingly de
feated.
THE MILITARY ACADEMY BILL.
The House then went into committee of
the whole on the military academy bilL
In speaking to a verbal amendment, Mr.
Livingston of Georgia criticized some of the
items of the bill, and doclared that the
country was not in a condition to inoreaso
the appropriations.
Mr. Cummings of New York offered an
amendment raising from 50 cents to <1 50
a day the extra pay of four enlisted men
detailed as printers. This amendment was
defeated and a similar amendment fixing
the extra pay at $1 per day was ruled out
on a point of order.
On motion of Mr. Robertson of Louis
-1 iana, the amount for improving the post
cemetery was reduced from $1,200 to SIOO.
Mr. Robertson moved to strike out the
paragraph appropriating $50,000 for enlarg
ing the gas plant, aud to substitute therefor
an appropriation of $0,540 for an electric
light plant for lighting the cadet barracks.
Tbo motion was agreed to by a vote of 76
to 64.
IMPROVEMENT OF THE DRAINAGE.
Mr. Wheeler of Alabama moved to strike
out the clause appropriating $15,000 for
improving the subsoil and surface draiu
aga of the barracks for enlisted men.
Mr. Buchanan of New Jersey inquired
why the committee on military affairs had
recommended this appropriation unless it
was deemed necessary.
Mr. Wheeler replied that it had deemed it
nocessary, but that after consultation with
a gentleman who was opposed to the bill he
had agreed in order to have the appropria
tion for a gas plant to have the appropria
tion for drainage stricken out.
Mr. Buchanan suggested that the gentle
man (whoso name Mr. Wheeler declined to
state had gone back on the agreement as
the appropriation fur a gas plant had been
eliminated.
Mr. Payne of New York then took a
hand in interrogating Mr. Wheeler upon
this point and urged upon that gentleman
the propriety of stating whether the
private consultation to which the gentle
man alluded was addressed to the necessities
of the government or to the needs of the
Democratic party: had it been held for the
good of the public or the interest of the
economy and retrenchment, reform and
hypocrisy party ? [ Laughter. ]
BLOUNT DEFENDS THE PARTY.
Mr. Blount said that there was no need
to talk about a consultation or au agree
ment. The democratic side of the House
had declared its purpose upon this bill.
The talk about cheese paring was an old
story. It was currency which the repub
licans bad tried to put before the people for
years and years. They had gone into the
campaign upon that issue und they had
come out of it without the fruits of victory.
Tbo democrats were ready to meet them
and see whether wnat was called homely
eoonomy was recognized by the American
people.
Without action the committee rose and
Mr. Outh waite of Ohio moved that the de
bate should be limited to one minute. The
vote resulted: Yeas 154, nays 4, no quorum,
aud the House adjourned.
The attendance In the House isdsily
growing smaller, and when the sneaker
took his c isir this morning the empty seats
far outnumbered those that were occupied.
SESSION OF 7 HE SENATE.
Call Asks an Investigation Into Flori
da’s Alleged Lobby,
Washington, Feb. ll.—ln the Senate
to-day Mr. Paddock appealed to the Senate
not to adjourn over until Monday, a mo
tion to that effect having been made. The
printing, bill he said, had been “dragging its
slow length along” for weeks and seemed
likely to do so for weeks to come, and he
was but waiting to get it out of the way in
order to bring forward for discussion and a
vote the important measure known as the
“pure food bill.” Mr. Cockrell took excep
tion to the disrespectful way iu which the
printing bill was spoken of. That was a
very important measure, and he thought
that it was being pressed even too rapidly.
The moti- -n to adjourn till Monday was
agreed to—yeas 36, nays 20.
Florida's alleged lobby.
Mr. Call offered a resolution for an in
vestigation as to the alleged efforts of rail
; way and other corporations to control the
1 election of senators in the Florida legisla
ture. He asked that the resolution be laid
on ths table, and said that be would submit
nme observations upon it at an early day.
He also offered a resolution instructing the
committee on public lands to report a bill
for opening to settlement under the land
laws of certain rsservation in Florida. This
he also asked to have laid ou the table.
Mr. George offered a resolution instruct
ing the committee on finance to report a bill
requiring the issue ai.d keeping in circulation
of legal tender treasury notes to an amount
equal to $lO per capita of the population of
the United States, and an increase of such
issue every year so as to keep paoe w ith the
yearly increase of population. It was re
ferred to the finance committee.
NEW POBTOFFICE BUILDINGS.
The bill providing for postoffice buildings
in towns and cities where the pcstoffice re
ceipts exceed $3,000 annually was taken up
and was, on 'motion of Mr. Vest, made the
special order for Monday week.
Tne West Virginia “direct tax” bill was
taken up, and, Mr. Frvejonjecting to its oc
cupying the morning hour any further, it
was restored to its place oa the calendar,
Mr. Faulkner assenting to that disposition
of ii.
After a short executive session the print
ing hill was taken up, the question being
ou Mr. Coke's amendment to increase the
number of extra copies of the agricultural
report from 300,000 to 500,000. After much
discussion Mr. Coke’s amendment was
agreed to without division. The number of
extra copies of the report of the bureau of
animal industry was also, on motion of Mr.
Coke, increased from 40,000 to 50,000. Many
other amendments, chiefly to the phrase
ology of the bill, were offered, discussed and
disposed of.
Last of all, Mr. Gorman expressed his
opposition to the creation of another de
partment—that of superintendent of docu
ments, to be appointed by the President
with a salary of $3,000 a year.
He moved to strike out section
62 and to provide in lieu of it, that the pub
lic printer sholud act as superintendent for
the distribution of public documents.
This brought on a lively debate, in which
Mr. Gorman wag ably seconded by Mr.
Cookrell and opposed by Messrs. Mander
son and Hawley. Mr. Cockrell moved to
strike out all sections from 62 to 75 (refer
ring to the duties of the superintendent).
No action was taken on the amendment.
Mr. Gibson of Louisiana introduced a bill
to improve the navigation and to afford
ease and safety to trade and commerce of
the Mississippi river, aud to prevent de
structive floods, appropriating $16,000,000,
of which not more'than $3,833,000 shall be
expouded in any one year. It was referred
to the ooremittee on o unmerce.
On motion of Mr. Paddock the pure food
bill was made the special order after the
morning hour as soon ns the printing bill
shall be disposed of.
The Senate, at 5:45 o’clock, adjourned
till Monday.
CAROLINA’S REPUBLICANS.
A Movement to Take the Control
From the Negroes.
Charleston, 8. C., Feb. 11.—The new,
or white republican, movement is taking
practical shape in this state, and will be
heard from at Minneapolis, and also in the
coming campaign. A confidential circular
has just been issued, calling a conference to
meet at Columbia on Feb. 15. This confer
ence is preliminary to the state convention,

the republioan national convention. Its
purpose, as described in the circular, is to
dovise plans aud methods of oonducting
the campaign in the state, and
the recipients are requested to personally
invite any other good and respectable men
you know to be in sympathy with our

the circular says, “is ripe and a bright
future of clean republicans and good gov
ernment is just before. Steps will be taken
to place a republican party before our fel
low citizens such as will command their
allegiance and affections.”
The new party is entirely distinot from
the old machine and is not recoguized by
the regulars.
