It is said that Harrison’s health
is failing. His party will fail in 1892.
The earth is the Lord’s, hut Jay
Gould doesn’t seem to think so.—Som
erville Journal.
It lias been almost a week since a
stage coach war, held up in the wild
West. Strange,
Some members of the legislature
think they can begin to sec the begin
ning of the end of the present session.
The republicans; of New Jersey
will go to bed on the night ol
the election, without any Grubb.
That’s Abbott the size of it.
The Betterments Question.
This question will not down, hike
lianquo’s ghost, it is continually rising
up. We have an able legislature—this
is conceded. The members, no doubt,
only wish to do what is right in the
premises. But how to get at it is the
question. From our standpoint, as
seen at this distance, both sides are
wrong; lie; slate, at least it is sordaim-
rd by some, should not pay a cent;
while, on the other hand, the lessees
claim more than is actually due them.
Something is undoubtedly due the les
sees; let the state allow that something,
whatever it may be. There ought to
be, there must be, a solution of the
matter, No one wants to sec the
issue carried into the courts.
Will it be Settled ?
One of the most important ques
tions before the legislature is that
of betterments—the claims of the
lessees of the W. & A, R. 1!., fin-
certain improvements made by them
during their twenty years lease. The
house and Senate have passed the’
following, looking to an adjustment of
the vexed question :
When ns. it is nlli-gcil l.v the persons who
vn or control the lease nt the. Western
anil Atlantic Railroad, that they have claims
list the slate nt (teorpia as lessees of the
tern and Atlantic railroad; and where
as, the lessees express a wish to adju-t and
settle such claims: and whereas, neither the
salidiiv of such claims nor the duty ol the
state to allow the same, or make any setile-
iicnt thereof is admitted : lmt, whereas, it

Wilkie Collins, the renowned nov

A rhymester writes; “There are
poems unwritten and songs unsung."
Then let them remain as they are
please.—Pittslni rg Ghron iclc.
Wonder if anyone has heard any
thing lately of the Georgia pistol tutors,
who are taking life easy in Tennessee.
Governor Taylor is doubtless issuing
rations to them.
The Senate has passed a bill to sell
the Ofckenokce swamp. It makes
the minimum price twelve and a half
cents per acre. The Goveruer is to
advertise the swamp tor sixty days.
Major Merrill has also declined the
pension conunissionership. lhere is a
strong suspicion among prominent
republicans that a bomb is hidden un
der the late Tannct’s chair.—Tele
graph.
The New York Graphic has joined
the silent majority—it is dead. The
Graphic recently joined the republi
can ranks. This ought to be a warn
ing to papers contemplating a change
of politics.

Only twenty out of four hundred

to pass a law to require all railroad
trains to leave on time. If this mem
her can succeed in having the law-
passed, he will do more than the
ablest railroad manager has been able

President Livingston Explains.
A short time ago president Ivey, of
the County Alliance, appreciating the
importance of the farmers of this
county being informed as to the cflects
of the proposed new rule for weighing
cotton, addressed a letter to president
Livingston, of the State Alliance, ask
ing his views on the question. Under
date of the 21st, Mr. Livingston re
plies as follows:
Dear Uho.:—Yours of 1 5 th to baud. All
cotton is now priced with u deduction of C
per cent, for tare. A bale weighing 100
pounds, has just 0 per cent, tare (21 pounds)
a bale weighing 500 pounds at 0 per cent.,
therefore, sustains an actual loss ol d pound;
This we changed from 0 per cent, to 2
pounds per bale on all jute covered cottui
A bale of cotton covered cotton, actual tar
is 10 pounds, therefore a loss under tli
present tare, of 11 pounds. This we fixed at
actual tare, 10 pounds, ins trail of 0 per <
Cotton, therefore, on the last day of Kept.,
being worth 10 cents, on the 1st day of Oct
vitbout any other cause, will be priced u
so as to cover these amounts of difference, 1
for cotton bagging and 0 for jute. In other
words, cotton covered in cotton will be
higher in price, to the value of 8 pound
over jute, and thus the actual tare instead
of a fraudulent tare nr, now.

Good Sentiments.
Savannah Sentinel, (tub).
There is no real animosity existing
between the two races. They are to
be found working together in the very
closest and most confidential relations
ol life. They have always been friend
ly, and nothing should be allowed to
disturb that feeling. Let there be
one determination to accord to every
man what belongs to him, condemn
violence and incendiarism, and bring
the perpetrators ol outrages to punish
ment, and all will be well with our peo
ple of the South, both white and black,’’
These are the sentiments of a col
ored man, and they will meet with
responsive echo throughout the South.
