And the end is not yet.
In 1890 the bonded debt of the sev
eral states is $194,800,372, and the
floating debt is $43,596,218, making a
total cf $238,396,590 aud showing a
decrease of $58,020,931.
Under the new apportionment it is
likely that Georgia will gain another
congressman. In that event an elec
tion for a congressman at large will be
ordered. Ten years ago Hon. Thomas
Hardeman was elected from the slate
at large:
The Atlanta Constitution says:
It is stated that the Augusta and
West Florida will purchase the aban
doned grade of the Carolina, Knox
ville and Western and the Louisville
and Wadley railroads, and push tlic
building of a line from Augusta to
Tbomasville’
Thirteen negroes were under a tree
the other day, in North Georgia,
when lightning struck the tree. Ouc
was killed and several seriously injur
ed. If there are thirteen in the par
ty, never stand under a tree during
a thunder storm- Thirteen is an un
lucky number.
Where Lightning Strikes, And
Where it Does not Strike.
A writer iu the Savannah Daily
Times, has been giving people some
suggestions about the danger of being
struck by lightning. For instance iu
speaking of the safest plan aud place
during an electric storm, he says:
Get four tumblers aud put the legs
ot the chnir in them, and sit iu the
middle of the room, putting the leet
on the rounds of the chair. They are
safe; the lightning may play aud the
thunders roll, and if any one has an
ear for “heaven's grand artillery"
they can enjoy it without fenr.
The most dangerous places duriuga
thunderstorm are to be near a tree,
lofty building, or running water. The
middle story of a house is the safest
place, and the most dangerous is near
the fireplace, especially if the lire be
lighted, for the heated air aud soot are
good conductors of lightning. Do
not be near the walls of a house dur
ing lightning; nor should nil crowd
together iu a room, because a mass of
people ioitns a better conductor than
an individual. A chureli with a con
gregation is not a safe place, fur not
long since a church was struck by
lightning during service.
Col. R.’T’Nesbit.
Speaking of the next Commissioner
of Agriculture, the Savannah Daily
Times says:
The future Commissioner of Agri
culture, It. T. Nesbit, is n native of
Savannah. He is a brother-in-law of
Major John Screven, of this place.
His father was Hugh O. K. Nesbit,
who married Miss Martha Berrien,
one of the most distinguished beauties
Georgia ever produced. Mr. Nesbit
served once in the State Senate, hut
has, with that exception, lived out of
politics. He is a well educated nmu
of pleasing manners, and one oi the
most intelligent aud successful farmers
of the State.
It is very generally believed that
Mr. Huunicutt, who was defeated fur
the nomination, will be assistant com
missioner.
The Alliancemen Will Stand by aT
Nominations.
In the last issue of the Southern
Alliance Farmer, we find the following:
The Alliance ol Georgia has been
accused on various occasions of being
opposed to the democratic party, and
of trying to create a party within a
party. On more than one instance
Alliancemen who have been defeated
have refused postively to run as inde
pendent candidates, even at the ear
nest request of men who have hereto
fore been organized democrats, and
who are not now members of the Alii
ance, but in every instance these Alii-
ancemen have refused to run indepen
dently, and are solid for democratic
unity and democratic success; in fact,
the great brotherhood in Georgia is
essentially democratic, and will most
certainly repudiate any man who enters
the field as independent candidate
The Alliance has taken a hand in the
politics of the ccuntrv not to disrupt
but solidify the democratic party.
Their mission is to make it worthy of
respect and confidence of the people,
and no member of our order who pro-
poses to bring shame upon the organ
ization by tr.ing to disrupt the white
man’s party ot Georgia and of the
South, will be countenanced in it. It
is also the policy ot the order to do
all in its power to forward the interest
of the regular democratic nominees,
and, hke every good citizen, when we
have made an effort to elect a man
who is in sympathy with us, and have
failed, we stand by the nominee of the
party and do all we can to make his
candidacy and his work for the people
a grand success.
* # # # #
I he word independent, as applied
to candidacy, means independent of
the democratic party. As there are
but two parties in the south, to be
independent of the democratic party
means to be dependent on the repub
lican parly, therefore, we fail to see
the difference between a candidate
who is wholly dependent upon the re
publican party, and one who comes
out squarely and announces himself
upon the republican platform. Other
men may see this differently from what
we do, and ol course all are entitled to
their own opinion, but the democratic
parly is the dominant party in this
state, to be independent of it is to be
dependent upon the opposing faction.”
What the Alliance Farmer says of
the Alliance should apply to those
who are not included in that order.
And it does. The nomination of
Livingston, Everett and others as can
didates for congress, who has been
bitterly opposed by thousands of dem
crats; but now that they are the nom
inees of the party it is the duty of
every democrat in the various districts
of Georgia, to stand squarely by the
men nominated. The Times-Enter-
prise has opposed Livingston and
others, put out by the alliance, for the
reason that we thought it inexpedient
at this juncture of our national affairs
to change the present able delegation
from Georgia in congress. And,
again, we have disagreed with Mr.
Livingston and others onjthe sub treas
ury plan. It is not considered prac
ticable by the ablest statesmen in the
country. Hon. Henry G. Turner
met the Alliancemen of this and other
counties in his district, and told them
he cculd not, and would not, support
the sub-treasury plan. And yet he
carried the alliance vote of this sec
tion almost solid, showing that they
were convinced by the plain logical
facts presented to them by Mr. Tur
ner. However we may have dlffeted
with others on these questions, now
that the conventions have spoken, we
hold that ,it is the duty ol every dem
ocrat in Georgia to vote for the men
nominated in every district in the
state. We are all democrats, and
should, in the presence of the danger
which threaten us, stand shoulder to
shoulder, from the mountains to the
seaboard. This is the platform and
the political faith and principles of
the Times-Exterprise. These prin
ciples have been our guide in the past,
and they shall continue to be in the
future. Upon them we will stand or
fall.
