With Easter behind us it is fair to assume that the Spring of 1890, is fairly inaugurated. Politicians arc beginning to put in their work in Georgia. And its going to be lively work. Buck is defending himself in the newspapers against the criticisms of Gen. Longstreet. Buck is a bad one The New York Tribune wants hides put on the free list.

Lives have been lost and thousands and thousands of property destroyed Mouticello is going to build a road ■ to Tampa, All right, we wish our plucky little neighbor success in the enterprise which she has put on foot. Mr. Chauuccy M. Depew repays the courtesies rccoutly extended him at the South by slandering the people of this section. Republican politici ans are very much alike. Hon. Henry Carlton, of the 9th district, will not be a candidate for re-clcctiou. There will be a scramble for the place. Several pronounced candidates are already in the filed. Here is* a little Bible silhouette done by Sam Jones, which seems to delight The New York Tribune “My ideal of a man is John the Bap list, who jumped on a king and stomped the very feathers out of him. When he was put in jail he said he would stay there until the ants car ried him out through the keyhole before he would modify anything that lie had said.” The Detroit, Mich., dispatch says “Au effort will be made this week to have cx-Scnator Joucs, of Florida, sent to Kalamazoo asylum. He becoming more pronouncedly insane daily, and there arc grave fears that he may do himself or some other.- grnvc injury. Senator Jones knows that such a movement is no foot, and declares that he will never be impris oned alive.” A good editor indites this screed: “Who weeps ^witli you when you are sad, laughs with you when you are glad, and smiles with you when you are mad ? The editor. Who has to be both kind and wise, and never (hardly ever) lies; and when he docs, creates surprise ? The editor. Who owns a heart ns well as a check, pos sessed of spirit proud yet meek, and lives on forty cents a week ? The editor. A Pointer or Two. The south is producing more cotton than when she had millions of slaves at her command, and astouishiug ns it may bo to most people who have not kejit pace with her progress, from producing less than one-eighth of the country’s iron nine years ago, to-day she is producing about one-fourth of all the iron made in the United States. The World’s Fair Building. An architect of Chicago has sub mitted a plan for the world’s fair building in that city. The idea of this architect is to have only one building and to locate it over the water of the lake. It would be built upon piliug and would be 1,000 feet high in the center, and would have diameter of .‘1,000 feet. It would cover 190 acres, and would be built of glass and iron at a cost of 80,000, 000. The plan calls for nud ampbi theater in the center of it that would hold 500,000 people. Fiotn the top of the center tower it would be pos sible to see the Michigan shore across the lake. Nashville merchants are raising a subscription of 85,000 to advertise that city. In 1888 the business men of Portland, Ore., subscribed 812,000 a month to advertise that city, and Portland grew marvelously in wealth and population. And this is what Thomasville should do. This summer should not pass without a systematic plan of advertising the place being inaugu rated. B. D. FUDGE, THOMASVILLE, GA„ -DEALER in- HARDWARE Stoves, Iron, Hitting Livingston- ■C’ol. Livingston made a speech at the Georgia Chautauqua in Albany. It has been severely criticised. Among others he attacked Pat Walsh of Augusta, one of the truest men in Georgia. The News and Advertiser thus touches up Col. Livingston’s speech: Air. Liviugs.ton on Wednesday did hurt the Alliance; he brought it into disrepute by blackguarding the press blackguarding true and tried Demo crats, whose papers have always been on the side of the farmers and the Alliance, and blackguarding and browbeating Editor Underwood, minister of the Gospel and a‘ fellow Alliance man. Mr. Livingston on Weducsdny.in ulted his audience, insulted the as sembled Alliances, insulted the citi zenship of Albany and Dougherty county, insulted the Chautauqua man agement by supposing that they could endorse such a coarse, ribald and profane speech. He brought the glorious dignity of the great Geor gia Chautauqua down into the dust of a backwoods political stump, and made it a by-word in tho press of the state as a gathering for rabid aspirants after gubernatorial honors, and caused a thrill of disgust to pulse the entire South at the exhibition of such a mountebank. Just such men ns Livingston brought the Grange of grief, and destroyed its power and usefulness, and no better fate can be hoped for the Alliance if these same old chronic office seekers arc allowed to talfc the lead and subsidize the order to their own political interests.

There is too much love in the world, said some one the other day to me. There is too much of a great many things in this world, but not too much of that, There is too much bad tamper. Too much scandal. Too much evil temper. Too much hard j^gment. Too much impertinence. Too much weakness unforgiven. Too much of bad puns. Too many courses at dinner. Too many chestnuts. Too many liars. Too many bores. Too many tiresome plays. Too many women who support their husbands. Too many books written to sell and not read. Too many—no there are not too many babies, and while there are plenty of babies and plenty of love, there will always be plenty of happi ness in the world.—New York Sun MATTINGS Tin and Hollow Ware, of all kinds, and) agent for Powder Co.

Tho Macon Telegraph says: The idea embodied in the alliance platform, that the propper basis for railroad profits is ths cost of the roads, i* tho proper one. There is no reason why the people should pay dividends on investments of water. Roods arc clearly entitled to a lair profit on the actual investments, but it is an outrage to water stock heavily and then make shippers pay on these largo fictitious figures. The Constitution says : “Mr. C. B. Townsend, of Tltotnas- villc, estimates that there are -10,000,- 000,000 feet ot pine forests in the state of Georgia, worth at least 810 per thousand, 8-100,000,000, which is more than the taxable value of all the property, real anil personal, in state.” And much of this undeveloped wealth is in South, .South West and South East Georgia.
