B. OI KR, niialiiesu, Mnnnuer. Fulton county will probably bold her primary in July. Gen. Jo Johnson will unveil the Lee statue, in Richmond, on the 291I1. The ramie plant is bein; successful ly grown in Louisiana. Why should it not be grown in South Georgia? John Inman has been offered premium of 2 1-2 per cent, on the block of Georgia bonds which he late Iv bought. Hon. F. G. DuBignon says the passage and enforcement ot a federal election law will cause blood shed in the South. The famous Woolfolk case was to have been called in the Supreme court, yesterday. Col. Rutherford is working like a trojan for his client Mr. Blount, of Georgia, takes the place of the late Mr. Randall on the committee on rules. Georgia Con gressmen are generally found at the front. They voted pensions the other day to two foster mothers and two step- mothers. The pension business has run mad. Now let some one intro duce a bill to pension some bounty jumpers mother-in-law. 'lhe two most powerful religious denominations in the United States, the Methodists and iiiptists, are holding conventions, the first in St Louis and the latter in Fort Worth Texas. At least the Southern branch cs of these churches are thus engaged Reed, McKinley & Co., have limit ed the debate on the infamous tariff bill reported by the republicans in congress, but they can’t limit the de bate before the people. On the hus tings the bridles will be taken off. And then the fur will fly. There are sixteen negro jockeys in the country who are paid from $2,500 to $8,000 a year, but not a colored minister in the United States receives one half the less of these sums. It appears that horse racing is much mere profitable to the colored brother than preaching.—News. It turns out that Joel Chandler Har ris started the elephant move in At lanta in the interest of the thousands of children in that city. It is just like him. And now every little tot in Atlanta is in love with Uncle Remus. Could his reward be greater? Joel Harris has a warm and tender heart, as is shown in every line of his writings. May his red head never turn gray. The German army, the most pow erful in the world, will cost this year a little over $90,000,000. The United States military expenditures for the same period will amount to about $150,000,000, though we have no army worth speaking of. The differ ence arises from the tact that in Ger many money spent on the army really goes to the making of soldiers, while in this country nearly all of it is used in buying voters.—Telegraph. The McMillan Mashes Milliken of Maine. That was a lively tilt between Mc Millan, of Tennessee, and Milliken, of Maine, the oilier day in the house. Milliken asked McMillan il one hun. dred thousand republican voles bad not been suppressed in the South at the last presidential election. Facing the man Ironi Maine, and rising to his greatest height, the plucky Tennessee an thtindrcd out: “No, sir, that is absolutely false— absolutely false. [Applause on the democratic side J I am tired of this business of a lot of people standing back thanking God that they are not wicked like others, when their own record is as rotten as a cancer’s sore, [Applause to the democratic side ] What is your record ? You stole one presidency and bought another; and now you talk about suppressing votes There was a conflict waged in 1888 and this settled something. Let see bow it was waged. It is a fact known by all men that the fat was fried out of the manufacturers all over the country for campaign purposes, Go to the postoflicc department and ask your postmaster-general how much money he contributed." That is str.king straight out from the shoulder. Three cheers for Me Milhn of Tennessee. The Express Robbery. Th 2 Constitution of last week con lained a full account of the express robbery, and on Friday last Sheriff Simkius had worked up sufficient evi deuce on Ralph Barbour to almost convince him that Barbour was t man who committed the robbery, he wrote Barbour a note to come his office, as he wished to see him on important business. Barbour sent the sheriff word that he would be around in a few minutes, but, instead of going to Maj. Simkins he went to the depot and took the train for his home at Boston, Mass. That night Sheriff Simkins telegraphed to the authorities at several places to be on the watch out and capture Baibour. He was arrested at Savannah, and Sheriff Simkins left here Saturday night to bring him back ; he arrived Sunday and was brought before Judge I’uleston Monday for trial. Tnrough his attorney, D. A. Fin layson, Esq., he waived examination and was placed under $1,000 bond to appear at the fall term of court. He has confessed to the theft and gave no reason lor it.—Monticello Constitution. Discouraging Immigration. We would not advise you to come West under the idea that you can make a car load of money in your business in a year or two. There are not only plenty of undcr-takers out this way, but, owing to certain peculi arities, the business is not as flourish ing as it might he. Uur people don’t make much ol funerals. The idea is that after a man is dead he isn’t good lor much, and it’s wonderful how cheap you can cut the figures, if you so desire. For instance, the last man we shot figures on us as follows : Drinks fur coroner's jury Uox for remains Digging grave Headboard Services of dray Total. ..$2.50 McKinley’s tariff bill is receiving some heavy hits. Roswell I*. FI >wer, of New York, dealt it sonic healthy blows: Mr. Flower summed up his opinion of the bill by reciting the legened that was found pinned to a corpse on a victim of Judge Lynch in a Western territory. "He was a pretty mean man in some respects, but he was a blamed sight worse in others.” Many a man who is a good shot in this world hopes to miss fire in the next.—Boston Bulletin. You don’t get things much below this figure, while the people here won’t stand much of a raise on it. We’d like your society and we’d like your aid to nclp build up the town ; but, when you ask us for facts and figures, have got to give them to you traight. Five Wives in one Year. Cincinnati Commercial: Thomas Wedge was granted a decree of divorce in the Elkhart Circuit Court Saturday, and was again married the same day. This is Wedge's fifth mat rimonial venture. He was divorced from his first wile in April, 1889. He was married, divorcing No. 2 in Au gust. Wife No. 3 he was legally separated from i,i October. Friday lie obtained a decree from bis fourth wife. Three divorces were obtained in this county and one in Elkhart. Five wives'n less than one year is quite a record. There is no man so wise that a fool ish little woman cannot make a fool of him, if she will—and she generally will—Somerville Journal. BETTER THAN GOLD. RESTORED IIER HEALTH.
