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.” MERCER UNIVERSITY, (MACON, GA.) COURSE? OF STUDY: I. Preparatory School II. Classical Course. III.
