Milwaukee has elected a democrat
ic mayor in the person ot the author
of Peek’s Bad Boy.
The Atlanta Journal lias been pat'
ting the alliance on the bnek for f
year or more, but now the organ of
the alliance is down on the Journal
with all its power, and even, com
pares it to the monkey who used the
cat’s paw to get the chestnut*.
AVe publish in this issue the politi
cal platform of the Alliance in Geor
gia. We did not understand before
that the alliance was n political or
ganization but if it is not why pul
forth a platform. Suppose the plat
form of the Democratic party and of
the alliance should not happen to be
the sam^ which are you going to
stand on?
The unmarried women of Massa
chusetts have twenty nine million
dollars on deposit in the savings
banks of their state, says the Boston
Woman’s Journal. In view of the
fact that this paragraph has been
widely quoted, it is surprising that
llicy arc still unmarried. F'neh
women arc fully capable ol support
ing husbands.
Thomas Alva Edison, who is often
referred to as “yankee inventor,” is
not a yatikcc at all, though lie looks
more or less like one. lie is of min
gled English and Dutch ancestry,
and was born at the village Milan, in
Eric, county, Ohio, Feb. 11, 1847,
though in taking up his quarters at
Menlo Park, X. J., he simply return
ed to his family headquarters, as his
grandfather, upon coming to this
country from Holland, established
himself near Newark, N- J.
Some time ago in an article in the
New York Sun on ccomoy among
young men of taste and limited means
attention was drawn to the fact that
trousers of suitable material could he
turued inside out and made over so
ns to serve the purpose of new ones.
A bright tailor near Union Square,
New York, saw the suggestion, and
soon afterward had a sign hung ill his
window which told the passer-by that
the specialty to turning clothes for
gentlemen was his. To his surprise
lie found himself overrun with work,
and on inquiry lie was told that a
very 1 arge proportion of his early
customers were men who had read
the story. He says tlmPalready that
article has saved more than half the
price of a suit of clothes to more than
300 men in that city and lias brought
a corresponding number of dollars to
liim.
The construction of thegreat bridge
across the Mississippi at Memphis it
the first one ever attempted over that
stream south of its junction with the
Ohio, but will bo speedily followed
by the building of another and still
greater bridge. This is to cross the
Mississippi at New Orleans. It will
be a gigantic structure of three spans,
with n clear height of 105 feet above
high water, so that the tallest masts
may have free passage. The central
span will be 1,1 -»0 feet, one of the
longest in tl.c world, and its clearance
will be fifteen feet greater than that
of the celebrated bridge over the
Forth in Scotland. The Memphis
and New Orleans bridges will increase
immensely the the facilities for com
mcrcc, and enormous as tlie'.r cost arc,
will Ikj almost certain to prove
a profitable investments. What
most desired now, however, is not
more bridges over the Mississippi,
hut some method to keep that mighty
ant} unruly river under control.
Executive coniiiiittce on the policy j
of the Geoigiu Slate Alliance made at i
its reeent meeting is as follows:
\Vlter;n«, I’aingraph 4, Sec. 2, Art. !
4 of the e institution of Georgia de
clares : "Tl.c general assembly of j
this state shall have no power to au
thorize any corporation to buy shares j
or stock in any other corporation in
the state or elsewhere, or to make
any contracts or agreements whatever
with any such corporation which may
have the effect, or 'he intended to
have the olf-ict, to defeat or
competition in their respective busi
nesses, or to encourage monopoly;

adopted
present
and such contracts and agreements
shall he illegal and void.”
Your committee respectfully sug
gest the enforcement of the above
constitutional clause in its full aud
r’glnal intent; to wit: That cor*
.-Mtions shall remain competitive,
i.. 1 for given points or localities, but
for the whole people and the entire
state; and that the powers of the
inter state railway commissions be so
enlarged as that they may co-operate
one with the other in regulating classifi
cations and rates, and the warehouse
features of railway cars and depots.
And these regulations should be based
upon a reasonable cost of construction,
equipment and running of roads, and
not upon watered stocks or liigli prices
paid for stocks for purposes of consol
idatin') mid eontiol.
Railroads must recognize the inter
est and rights of the people in char
tered corporations, and the laws of the
stats should lie such as to empower the
railroad commission to enforce the
same, and the commission should he
made to do its whole duty in the
premises.
Respect fully submitted,

A correct map ot the north we: t will show
that the Northern Pacific railroad traverses
tl/e central portion of Minnesota, North Da-

railroad reaching Jnmetown, Bismarck, Miles
City, AtUings,*;I.ivin"sion, Bo/ppmn, Mis-
loula, Cheney, Davenport, Paloust* City,
Sprague, /fit/.ville, Yakima, KUensburg, Ta

est.
The Northern Pacific is the "liortot tr.im-
contincntnl route from St. Paul and t.'hir.mu
to Helena, Butte. Anaconda, Deer Lodge,
Spokane Falls. Walla Walla, Dayton ami
Portland, and the only one whose through

For the benefit of settlers the Northern
Pacific also gives a ten day stop over privi
lege on second class North Pacific Coast
tickets at Spokane Falls and each and every
point west, including over 125 stations in
