Birmingham didn’t have but two or three killings last week. What’s the matter? If Blaine should scoop in Cuba it would be the longest feather in the plumed knight’s cap. The author of “Beautiful Snow” will soon come to the front. He generally does about this season of the year. Atlanta, Ga., Nov. 19.—The most dazzling railroad scheme in years came to light here to-day. U. C. Maehen, known ns “Magic Mnchen,” (he man who hnilt the Covingloii and Macon railroad, is in charge of a scheme to build an e'ec trie standard gunge railwav from At lanta to the f-ca, at or near Savannah. Work has began on a road between Eaton and Mnchen, a distance o‘ sev enteen miles, and on this electricity will he first tested. If it works well it will he applied to the whole line of one hundred and fifty miles. The capitalists backing Mnchen are New York, Philadelphia and Chicago parties who believe in elec tricity for railroads, and have ample means to test it This route is selected because of rich environment and immense motor power with which to generate elec tricity. On the Ocmulgce, Little river, South river and other streams on the route Maehen estimates the water power at sixty five thousand horse This, it is thought, will gen erate electricity enough to move all trains that can run over the road. The construction will be such that Why Not Cuba? Now that scoops and coupe d’etat are in the air, the people are again talking of Cuba to Mr. Blaine. Blaine does r.ot need urging. He would just as soon have Cuba as not. He would not object to a little scoop in the Caribbean if he could get the Queen of the Antilles. The history of territorial acquis! tiou by the United States has been one of opposition but of splendid reality. The people talked of 1m peaching Jefferson for the purchase of Loui.'i imi; hut what would we havo been to day had Napoleon never ceded the valley of the Mississippi ? People alluded to Florida as a land of swamps nud sand banks when we purchased from Spain, and all sorts of things were urged against the an nexation of Texas by President Polk. Even Alaska has turned out to be a gold mine. Now, why not Cuba? The’doctora say wo can never be safe from fever pestilence until we secure Cuba and disinfect it.—Chron icle, AugUBta. A Precious Pair of Rascals. Washington, Nov. 20.—Corporal Tanner will go in with Col. W. W. Dudley in the pension claim busi ness. That was a pretty good joke asking republicans to join a “Jackson club.” It’s enough to make old Hickory turn over in his grave, at the Hermitage.

Maehen does not disclose A Contest in Ohio. Columbus, O., Nov. 20.—Mr. Marquis, late democratic candidate for lieutenant governor, was in con sultation with the state committee aud his attorneys to-day, and stated that the committee has decided- that justice requires that a contest be made for lieutenant governor. He will act accordingly. it he in pants or petticoats? is the question. Put the old gal back short skirts. are men who have backed him in the Macon and Covington road.

Peek, of Conyers, has won the prize of S100 oflered by the Georgia Agricultural Society for the largest and best yield of corn on one acre in the State.. Col. Peek raised 130J bushels. Jefferson Davis Worse. New Orleans, Nov. . 20.—Hon. Jefferson Davis is worse. He is suf fering from pneumonia and bronchi tis, and passed a bad night. He is very feeble. The new flag of the United States of Brazil, whichtakes the place of the imperial emblem with its crown and coffee leaf, is composed of green and gold shapes with a blue field, on which are emblazoned nineteen stars. The Census.Bureau at Washington has just completed a list of manufao tories in the United States, which numbers 5,218. The number of cot ton mills in the southern states have been more than doubled since 1886. South Carolina’s Cotton Crop. New York, Nov. 19.—A dispatch to the Cotton Exchange from Colum bia, S. C., states that this year’s esti mated cotton crop, up to Oct. 1st, was 639,998 hales, against 558,642 bales up to the same time last year If more northern republican politi cians would come south, see how pros perous the country is under demo cratic, rule and kindly the relations are between the races, they certainly would stop maligning this section Come down and see us. Gov. Gordon will advertise the fa mous Okefenokee swamp for sale, on the 7th of January. The minimum price fixed by the state is ia i-a cents an acre. The swamp contains about Jfo8?wo“aCTCT,'60 It is said. A big drainage scheme is involved. Things are reported quiet in Brazil. It was a remarkably peaceful revolu tion. Every old woman in the coun try will be delighted to learn that there is no probability of a big ad vance in coflee on account of the change of government in that coffee growing country. Mr. Powderly said to an Atlanta Journal reporter a day or two ago: “I am not talking tariff this year,” but be proceeded to say, “The policy of pro tection, however, seems to me to be a wrong on labor. The laboring classes are not protected. Only this manufic- ers, the rich, receive protection, s American' manufacturer adds the !y to what would be the natural L flair price of bis product The F needs reforming. It is the poor, i mass of the people,who need , and they will never get it d policy of protection.’ National Grange Resolutions. Sacramento, Cal., Nov. 20.—At the National Grange yesterday reso lutions were adopted favoring testing of seeds in experimental stations be fore distributing; also one favingco operation. A committee was appoin ted to present legislation to congress. The Australian system of voting was approved. Tho Grange to-day passed a resolu tion favoring the election of United States senators by direct vote of the people. Thescssion adjourned to meet next year at Atlanta, Ga. Where are They? Mr. M. W. Scott, of the well known real estate firm, is now searching for the heirs of a Georgian who was killed in the Alamo masacre in ’26. Tobin is the name under which he was enrolled. The dead hero’s heirs were given by congress, along with others who went down that day, a big land grant, but until recently, no demand was made for it. Not long ago, however a claimant turned up, but he is thought to be an impostor, and the state has begun to silt the matter. On yester day Mr. Scott received a letter stating the facts and asking their help. Then they issued the following: Atlanta, Ga., November 19,1889. -Editors Constitution: We have information from Texas that among the Georgians who were murdered at the Alamo in 1826, was one John To bin—"Tobin.” It is probable that he was a married man, as he was granted land as the head of a family. The heirs are entitled to 4,428 acres of land. The land is claimed by a supposed impostor, as he is a well known forger. We would like to find his heirs to see them get their property. Georgia papers copy. W. M. Scott & Co. —Constitution. Every republican candidate for speaker of the house has expressed himself in favor of a federal election law. Such a law cannot pass. There are enough conservative republicans in congress to defeat it, and they will doit. The states ore competent to manage their own elections. The tendency toward a strong centralized government is one of the dangers which menaces the republic. The- people will preserve their liberties. HARRISON DRIVEN TO BAY.

Washington, Nov. 29.—The ac tion of President Harrison on the evi dence submitted by the civil service commission, showing that Mahone’s Old Dominion Republican Associa tion violated the law against political assessments, is awaited with gieat in terest. The commission has given him, it believes, evidence enough to procure an indictment of the officers of the association, three of whom are office holders. The commission wants to see this law tested. If it means anything the commission wants it en forced, if it does not the commis sion wants it amended. The com mission has shown wisdom In referring the mater to-the president. Had it presented its evidence to the district attorney he might have hesitated, be ing a hold over democrat,to prosecute republican office holders, or, it he had prosecuted them, he might have been accused of offensive partisanship, but, as it stands now, president Harrison himself should decide what is to be done. The matter will of course be formally referred to the attorney gen eral, but this will only be as usual for him to find the warrant for whatever the President has determined to do. If this source of boodle is cut off from the republicans, it will be good bye, John, with them. PROF. E. D.
