TUESDAY, JU.V’B 18, 1»8£.
The people of Georgia are not ripe
lor compulsory education.
Savannah is hustling around to
raise that 850,000 to secure another
railroad.
“Public office is a'family roost,”
continues to be the motto of the
grandson of his grand-daddy.
Quitmau is going to have a new
hotel. We congratulate the town. It
will prove a paying investment.
Crown Prince Russell has a very bad
case of big-head. There appears,
however, to be more skulls than brains
In its make up.
The echoes from the late centennial
haven’t ceased yet. The committee
have asked Mr. Fish for some expla
nations. Mr. Fish declines to submit
“figgers.” Ward McAllister is aveng
ed. . .
Gov. Taylor, of Tennessee, thinks
pistol toting a light offense. He re
fuses to honor Georgia’s requisition
for some hip pocket hoodlums who
skipped over the line. Bob, you’ve
made a mistake.
Green watermelons are getting in
their work and the doctors arc happy.
The unwary citizen awaketh the
neighborhood with his howls, while
he doubles himself into a knot aud
yells like a Comanche Indian.
Some one has suggested that Fora-
ker and Rosser be tied together, so
they can fight the war over again. A
good idea. The public feels no inter
est in their shots at long range. And
they do all their shooting with their
mouths.
Thebest evidence in the world that
the National Democratic Committee
made no mistake in electing Calvin
S. Brice Chairman, lies in the fact
that the republican papers all declare
themselves well pleased with the elec
tion. In the choice language of the
late Horace Grcely, they “lie.”
Harrison is the first president in
the history of the country, so fur as
we know, who assumed to dictate to a
chief Justice, to one of the Judiciary,
intimating that his decisions must be
on a line with the policy of his admin
istration. Upon what meats hath
this, our Harrison ted, that he has
grown so great?
Every now and then, some newspa
per man, who can read the future—
there are plenty of such—predicts that
a successor to Senator Brown will be
elected at the summer session ol the
legislature. Senator Brown will have
Something to say about this. And
your uncle Joseph is a very deliberate
sort ot a man. It is not recorded that
he has made up his mind in this mat
ter.
A linen duster, grip sack, free pass
over the railroads, and a due-bill for
two month’s board at some first-class
•nmmer resort, would reconcile an or
dinary mortal to a summer existence
in this latitude. Whew! but its hot.
And yet it may lie hotter—hereafter.
However, there is little or no consola
tion in the latter thought. We mere
ly allude to the possibility of such a
•tote, in order to grate the present
•lore bearable.
The Private Soldier.
The inquiry has been frequently
made: “What lias become of all the
privates who fought during the late
war?’’ It is a noticeable fact that all
the survivors arc now officers, most of
them Colonels, with a liberal supply
of Captains. The privates have dis
appeared. They must all have been
killed. The Constitution has found
one sure enough private, Mr. W. M.
Sparks. A shrewd fellow like Bar-
nuin, could make money by exhibit
ing this sole survivor of the great
army of privates, under a canvas.
Most any one would be willing to pay
a quarter to sec a genuine private of
the war.
Mr. Sparks wants toliavea reunion
of the privates in Georgia. We fear
the meeting would be a very slim one.
But Sparks is on the right line—if lie
can scare lip the privates.
The private Confederate soldier is
the grandest and most heroic -figure
in our history. Ilis praises have
never been sung as they should have
been. All honor to the men, who,
bare-footed, hungry, half clothed and
powder stained, bore the brunt of the
battle, faced death in every torra, and
who remained true as steel to the last,
laying down their well-worn muskets at
the close of the war, returning home
to find ruin and desolation on every
hand. And these same heroes have
been the .salvation of the South since
the war. They have tilled the soil,
built factories, churches and school
houses, and made waste places bloom
again.
Again we say: All honor to the
privates.
Danger of an Epidemic-
Some years ago, under a succession
of republican administrations, the cor
ruption grew so great that in Wash-
ton the man in the moon was
observed to grasp his nose and
hold it while passing over that
city. Close observers have no
ticed lately that the gentleman in -the
moon sniffs when riding' high above
the capitol ol the nation. He evi
dently smells something rotten in
Denmark. Maybe it is Tanner or
Dudley. We would suggest to the
man in the moon that he use ffiisinfec
tants liberally during the balance of
Harrison’s term, or there may be sick
ness in that planet. This sanitary
suggestion and advice is tendered
without reward or the hope thereof
The man alluded to, and his family—
if he has one—is most interested
and can adopt it or not—iust as
he secs fit. We have discharged our
duly in the premises. It an epidemic
breaks out in the moon wc arc not
responsible.
Congressman Randall says “the
probabilities are that a tariff will be
adopted at the coming session ot con
gress which will be satisfactory to the
business and manufacturing interests,
and will promote stability.”
O, yes, it w’ill be adjusted by the
repub icans to give “stability” to the
trusts and monopolists. The people,
the great body ot consumers, will be
left out in the cold. The day of reck
oning will come in November, ’9:.
Gov. Hill would stand a belter
chance for the nomination for Presi
dent in ’92, it he would get married.
He could marry with greater impunity
than most men —he is already bald.
The petition tor the coinage ot a
half cent piece, which is being pre
pared for presentation to the next
congress, may not be supported by
any very urgent necessity, but it can
not be denied .that the request lias
some elements of reason. It may be
said, of course, that we have tried this
thing once and given it up, and it is
quite true that the old half cent, begun
in 1792, was discontinued in 1857
without any remonstrance from the
people.
If we have ever referred to the dis
tinguished General Hinpolite, of Hayti,
as a rebel, we humbly beg his pardon.
We didn’t know he was going to win.
If we had, we should have known bet
ter than to call hint a rebel. Only
those who don’t succeed are ever eith
er heretics or rebels —Washington
Post.
To May 18, 1885, President Cleve
land had removed 2,000 republican
officials. To May 18,1889, President
Harrison had removed 9.500 demo
crats. Which party loves the spoils,
nearly five times more than the other?
The Quitman Home Guards are
talking about building an armory.
Hon. Henry G. Turner.
Amos Cummings, of the New York
Sun, one of the brightest newspaper
men in the United States, in a recent
interview with the Atlanta Coustiiu-
tion reviewed the Georgia delegation
in Congress. Speaking of the repre
sentative ol (he second district, lie
said:

is a great man. He does credit to
the highest legislative body in the
world. lie rarely speaks, but when
lit- does do so commands the closest at
tention. 11 is speech on the Mills’ bill
was the most classic of the two hun
dred delivered in the house. When
Kennedy, of Ohio, shotjan arrow into
him lie became thoroughly aroused.
He not only skinned Kennedy, hut
turned around and took oft the under
cuticle, nor was it done in a rough
manner. The greatest surgeon in the
world could not have used the scal
pel with more exquisite skill. Tur
ncr is a statesman who, when a great
crisis arises, will arise to the crisis.
Henry G. Tiirnei ranks with the
foremost man in Congress. He has
made his way, steadily but surely, to
the front among the ablest statesmen
in the country.
The Columbus Southern.
In regard to the New Columbus
Southern railroad, to be constructed
by the Chattahoochee Brick Company,
from Columbus to Albany, Mr. J. W.
English said to a Journal reporter to
day :
The Brick Company has, through
Mr. W. B. Lowe, who is now in New
York city, sold enough of the bonds
to insure the construction of the road.
All the rails and iron bridges for the
entire line from Columbus to Albany
have been purchased, and the work
will be rapidly pushed to completion.
The road will be fifty-five miles in
length. Twenty two miles, the distance
from Albany to Dawson, has already
been graded, and the southern branch
ol the road has been’graded from Co
lumbus to Richhnd, a distance of
thirty-three miles. The work of laying
the rails will be begun about the first
of August.”
The road will probably be in perfect
order by the early fall.—Atlanta Jour
nal.
The number of qualified voters in
the city of New York now exceeds
300*000, which is more than the total
vot<J> cast at the last presidential, elec
tion'in either Alabama, Arkansas,
California, Colorado, Connecticut,
Delaware, Florida, Georgia, Louisi
ana, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts,
Miuncsota, Mississippi, Nebraska,
Nevada, North Carolina, Oregon,
Rhode Island, South Carolina, Ver
mont or West Virginia.
Now that the Samoan matter is ad
justed, some other international ques
tion will be sprung. Blaine will not
sleep well without some international
issue on hand.
Since the purchase of Alaska it can
he said of the United States what has
been said of England for the last
century—that the sun never sets on
her dominions. At sunset in Alaska
the next morning’s sun is an hour
high in Maine.
The weather prophet reveleth in tho
predictions of summer storms.
Some dried apple kind of a cynic
once said, observes the New York
Herald, that when we had wooden
war vessels we had sailors with iron
hearts, but when we mad# iron war
vessels the sailors had wooden hearts.
Cynics, however, are always onesided,
they are the sour milk of creation.
Lieutenant Brown, commanding the
Trenton, demonstrates the statement
that iron vessels are sometimes mann
ed by iron sailors. I» the harbor of
Apia, Samoa, during the recent hur
ricane, lie supposed his vessel was go
ing straight to the bottom. The
storm was merciless, the reefs were
plenty, and the chance ol escape
mighty slender. So he ordered the
stars and stripes to be hoisted, sent
instructions to the hand to play “The
Star Spangled Banner,” and he and
his brave crew got ready to meet
their fate and go down with all colors
flying. That is an incident which
does honor to the country and its in
stitutions.
Corporal Tanner keeps up his raid
on the treasury. Tanner ought to
have his hide tanned; and the demo
crats will do it, in 1892.
I have used S. S. S. for debility re
sulting from chills and fever, and have
found it to be the best tonic and appe
tizer that I ever took. It also pre
vented the return ot the chills.

and many would be statesmen have
