JOHN TRIPLET I*. Run. .linn.
Mrs. H. G. Turner joined her hus
band in Washington this week.
The Quay resolution to decide the
late of the force bill will come up to
day.
It is now very generally conceded
that the force bill is dead. No mourn
er- in this latitude.
Fulton county shows an increase ol
six milions over the tax returns ol last
ytar. Fulton has forged ahead.
The census returns will show, it is
said, one doctor to every six hundred
inhabitants in the United States. And
yrt we are a healthy nation.
Two hundred masked men took a
prisoner from a jail out in Nebraska
the other day and hung him. All the
Jynchings do not occur in the South.
England has expressed a willingness
to arbitrate the seal fishery dispute
Arbitration is better than war. Uncle
Sim and John Bull are getting too old
to talk about fighting.
It looks as if there would be a split
in the democratic party in Floyd coun
tv, and perhaps in the 7th district.
All wrong gentlemen; stand by the
nominees. That’s true and unadulter
ated democracy.
A big fight will soon be going on
over a Florida senatorship, the seat
I.ow occupied by Senator Call. Why
not compromise on Ex-Gov. Bloxham?
] te is an able man, and one of the
most popular in the state.
Referring to the great number of
Union soldiers who were disabled in
the war, as shown by the appropria
tions for their relief, Sam Jones says,
• If they are swearing the truth now
they were worse whipped than we
t-ere.”
It does appear that there were a
great many of them disabled.
The amount of availab'e timber
standing in Michigan, Wisconsin and
Minnesota is not much more than the
t>mount which those states cut, last
year. The forests of the Northwest
t.ere a few years ago considered
practically inexhaustible, and now
they are almost gone. Georgia pint*
is also disappearing at a terrible rate.
One of the most important questions
•if the day is the repair of this des
truction of timber by scientific and
jiopular arboriculture.—Telegraph.
We are attaining huge proportions
as a nation. The present census will
show that our population is far greater
than that of any country in Europe
rxcept Russia. No country in the
world increased as much in population
os we did in the last ten years. We
■iave now three cities with more than
1,000,000 inhabitants each. No other
country has more than one. I.ct the
American eagle scream loud and long.
—Ex.
The venerable Cassius M. Clay, 01
Kentucky, must be accorded first place
nmong the pessimists in the United
Gtates. He says: “I have to pay for
trusts and legalized robberies, ! de
clare that I am no longer a free man,
and that in no true sense is this a re
public. To-day this is the worst gov
ernment on earth.” As Mr. Clay is a
staunch republican he ought to make
«iut a complete schedule of needed re-
.orms and get his political pals to put
Jt through.—Telegraph.
It is said that an effort will be made
•o pass a state prohibition law by the
next legislature. State prohibition
where certain counties, town and sec
tions are opposed to it, has never
worked—and it never will. Georgia
has a local option law which allows
each county to settle the question for
itself. Let it stand. It has worked
well. We may add that a number of
mates have followed Georgia’s exam
ple in this matter and that the law in
these states, as well as in Georgia,
works well. Let the law stand.
A Grayo Matter.
Agniu it looks as if there was to be
n cofHn trust. Three of the largest
manufactures of caskets in the coun»
try have formed the National Casket
Company. There is no telling just
what will be the outcome. It is prob
able that agents will be placed in all
leading cities and that a complete
monopoly will* be the final result.
There seems to be no end to trust bus
iness. Mouopolies have grown and
increase in number until it is a ques
tion of momentous importance, and is
indeed a grave subject, without in
tending a play on the word. Even
the tomb will not provide an escaen
from trusts. Trusts preside overpe
the inaugural howl of the infant
American ns he is deposited in a
“trust” cradle, and trusts remain with
him all through life, and ns he makes
his last ride into the final resting
place it must be iu a trust affair. Be
yond the grave let us trust that com
bines will be busted.
Will stand Together.
The Macon Telegraph says:
If Dr. Felton is wise be will not
yield to the effort now being made to
draw hint into the congressionol race
in the seventh district, as an independ
ent. His overwhelming defeat by the
democratic nominee would ho inevi
table. There was a time when Dr.
Felton could carry the district ns an
independent, but that time passed
away forever when he met his first de
lent at the hands of Mr Clements in
1880. The next congressman from
the seventh will be the accredited
standard bearer of the Democratic
party- t _
A Gem.
Among all of the bcautiiul things
that John Boyle O’Reily has written,
there is nothitg which comes to us
with more pathetic longing and sad
ness than this stanza from “The
1 'reamer.”
I'm tired ol* planning and toiling
In the busy hives of men;
Heart weary of building and spoiling,
And spoiling and building again.
And I long for the dear old river,
Whore I dreamed my youth away
For a dreamer lives forever.
But a toiler dies in a day. ’
“Tip” Harrison.
Dick Grubb says in the Darieu Ga
zette, and wc endorse every word of
it, that Hon. W. H. Harrison, of the
Executive Department at Atlanta,
will hold his position as long as he
wants it. “Tip” Harrison is one of
the best men in Georgia and she has
no truer son on her soil. Governor
Xortiien will please everybody by con
tinuing friend Harrison in his present
positiou with au increase of salary.
A Cloudburst in Colorado.
Colorado Springs, Col.,", Aug.
•.5.—A tremendous cloudburst broke
over this city yesterday, deluging the
town, beating in roofs and undermin
ing walls. Two people were swept
away and drowned. Twelve miles of
railway track were washed away. The
damage is at least $100,000.
The state which has made the great
est relative advance in population
since 1880 is Washington, fen years
ago it had a population of only 75’
110. The recent census gave it 330,
500 an increase of 352 per cent. It
is now more populous than North Da
kota and has more than twice as
many people as -South Dakota. It is
improving in all respects far more
rapidly than any new states and has
decidedly the finest prosects of any
of them. Washington went republi
can at the last election, but signs ol
repentance and reformation are al
ready perceptible.—Telegraph.
At a fair held on Long Istand, N.
Y. the other day, kisses, and by the
prettiest kind of girls, sold at 25 cents
each. Where was the Southern Soci
ety of New York ? They would have
run the price up, far beyond the price
quoted. Twenty-five cents for a kiss
is ridiculously cheap—if the woman is
pretty.
Branham, of the Brunswick Times,
thus advises the "summer girl.”
“The summer girl is in a state of
trausition, and an unhappy state it is.
She has one eye on tne departing
summer man and the other on the
coming winter man, but she doesn’t
know whether to bid the former go or
the latter approach. It would be well
for her to remember that a bird in
hand is worth two in the bush.”
