They Can’t Swallow it.
Some prominent republicans
kicking about the McKinley tariff
hill. Even in Ohio, where the party
usually touches elbows on all issues,
there is a revolt.
The McKinley hill is too much for
ex-Attorney General Baldwin and
John Overmyer, ex-chairman of the
Ohio Republican State Committee.
The former has left the party, and
the latter says of the bill: “Only a
general system of trading, selling out
and log-rolling can pass such a bill.
Not a single item iu McKinley’s pro
tected list lias enough merit in itself
to enable it to pass either House of
Congress, standing alone and unsup
ported by the corrupt combination ol
all the other ilems. IIow, then, can
the entire bill, sired by fraud and
born of corruption, ever be sustained
before the grent jury of the American
people? The fact is. every tariff bill,
favoring the few and oppressing the
manv, bears in its own body the seeds
of disintegration and death. Its -5,000
or 4,000 unrighteous and indefensible
items are constantly attacked and
undermined all over the country.
Its scattered and selfish horils of de
fenders can make but a feeble and
sporadic resistance, while its oppo
nents—the great army of consumers,
the masses, people ngninst whom it
stands as a menace and an oppression
—bears down upon it everywhere in
solid, invincible columns.”
The Black Man’s Fortune.
Dariun, On., May 14.—In Sun
day’s issue, under the head of “Ne
gro Enterprise,” return of negroes in
Georgia, you have the estate of Hen
ry Todd, late ot McIntosh county,
estimated at SO,000 ; which is not cor
rect.
At the time of bis death, three
years ago, his estate was said to be
worth 880,000. It was not at that
time known that some of this amount
was his wife’s estate. The executors
of the estate, Messrs. Adam Strain,
James K. Clarke and Henry Hunt
ington, will wind up the estate at this
May termof court, and it will amouut
to near 8.10,000.
He has bequeathed to his church
(colored Baptist) ten per cent of this:
to his wife’s church (white Prcshyte-
r : -n) ten per cent, and to the Mctlio
dist (white and colored) and to the
Episcopal (white) five per cent each.
He also bequeathed to both the white
nml colored schools a good percentage.
—Ex.
] of organization ia party ranks it is
needed now. Democrats must lie
! united. There is no time forjdivision,
! subtraction of experiment. There
are several districts in Georgia
which the negro vote could he made
very troublesome if it were brought
out, and Chairman Buck seems de
termined that it shall he brought out.
Our people must see that party
organization is maintained in every
county. Whether primaries or con
ventions arc agreed upon by the
Democratic party, such meetings
should reflect the will of the people
and outside issues should he kept down
as far as possible. There is no time
for class candidates or the advance
ment of special interests. There is
abundant and vital need for standing
together to promote the unity of the
Democratic party and the safety of
the white race.—Augusta Chronicle.
Thomas county, and the second
congressional district, will show a
solid, unbroken front. There will
he no bickerings or divisions here.
The democracy of this section has been
tried iu many a hard, and, at times,
unequal fight; but they have never
faltered. They arc true as steel, and
will stand shoulder to shoulder, in
the coming struggle for self preseva-
tion.i
Hebrew Bible in the Vatican.
A ejiecial from Rome says that a

French Jews for the purpose of
purchasing for the custody of the i editor,
Jews the copy of the Hebrew Bible
which is in the Vatican. The offer
which lias been made fur it is 8200,-

cannot legally sell it.

—Yesterday, in Robinson county su

Felony and the Senate.
Since Mr. M. S. Quay, United Slates
senator front Pennsylvania. was
charged on specific evidence with be
ing a thief sufficient lime lias elapsed
to make it plain that lie will not haz
ard an investigation. lie has neither
asked justice from the Senate nor
from the courts where lie might
secure it, if innocent, by suits against
the newspapers publishing the
evidence on which is based the charge
of larceny again-t him.—St. Bonis

An exchange says: Another elec
trical device lias been brought out to
afford communication between trains j _
in motion and to prevent accidents, j 1 JlOlllflSYlll6 "!" DOttllllS
Batteries and the necessary eonuec- j °
tions arc placed on each engine, a cen
tral conductor beinglaid parallel with
the rails. Should two trains approach
within a certain distance of each other
an alarm is sounded in each cal) with
an electric gong and a steam whistle
is set blowing. The engine drivers
can stop the train and communicate
by telephone. This eommunicatioa
can be effected when the engines are
cither running or still. An automat-
signal is also given if a switch is
misplaced or a bridge burned or
washed away. Additional batteries
are placed at the stations along the
road, and these work the alarm should
those placed on the engines become
broken.

The Girl Who Works.
An unknown author pays this trib
ute to the girl who works : “The girl
who works—God bless her. She is
brave and active and not too proud
to earn her own living nor ashamed
to he caught at her daily task. She
smiles at you from behind the count
er and desk. There is memory of her
sewn into each silent gown. She is
like the beautiful mountaineer al
ready far up the hill, and the sight of
her should be a fine inspiration for us
all. It is an honor to know this girl
—to he worthy of her regard. Her
hands may he stained by dishwashing,
sweeping, factory grease or printer’s
ink, but it is an honest and helping
hand. It stays misfortune from
homes ; it is one shield that protects
many a forlorn little family from the
almshouse and asylum.”

Ground was hioken to-day at Kimball, the
new town in Marion county, on the hanks of
Tennessee. Notwithstanding the fact that
the starting of new towns in the South i*
now of frequent occurrence, yet this occa
sion was regarded of unusual importance
and many distinguished citizens of this and
other States assembled to honor the event.
Major Thomas, President of the Nashville,
CliAttanonga and St. Louis K. R. brought
in his private car a party composed of some
of the fairest daughters of Tennessee, one of
whom drew the Hag to the top of the stately
liberty pole that had been planted on the
summit of a symmetrical Indian mound that
is one of the interesting features of this love
ly locality. Prof. Edward Hull, Director of
the Geological Survey of Ireland, threw the
first spadeful of earth, and Prof. J, M. Sal
ford, State Geologist of Tennessc, the next.
The brief inaugural address of Hon. 11. I
Kimball, the Chief Executive Manager of
this enterprise, was the central event of [the
day. In bis cpigramatic style he pointed
out to the people how this event was the
key to bringing out the immense treasures
of the whole Sequatcliee Valley, and por
trayed in glowing terms the vast industrial
devclopemcnt that would result in the es
tablishment of a manufacturing center at
this point that would rival the most noted
places of the kind in Great Britinn anti Ger
many. It is well known in this section that
Mr. Kimball invariably accomplishes far
more than he promises, therefore his brief
address lias had a most magical effect, and
it is the universal opinion {here that the
christening s^lc of cjtv lots nt Kimball,
June 10th, Uth ami 13th, will be ni all re
spects the most successful of any yet belli in
the South, and that the purchasers will
chiefly be genuine settlers who have abso
lute faith in the future of this enterprise.
