The Americus Daily Times is now

The Republican newspapers in' his
district seem to hare too much self

Cannon. To all such we take of! our

The House of Representatives has
refused to concur in the amendments
to the bill to plunder the people for
the benefit of the manufacturers,
sometimes called the McKinley Tariff
bill.
What’s the matter with the Ameri
cus Recorder. It does not pitch into
Gov. Gordon, but it is doing its best
to put him in as bad a light ns possi

good.
W. T. Christopher, a well known
newspaper man, has commenced the

him success.
Hon. Martin V. Calvin, of Rich
mond, is a candidate for speaker cf
t'ie next house. Judging by the in
fluence he won during the last session
with the farming element he will be
a favorable opponent to those already
i-i the field.
Savannah boasts of a store in which
all the employees have blue eyes. It
is not known whether this is inten
tional or accidental. If the latter, it is
certainly a curious coincidence. The
proprietors also have eyes of the same
color ns the clerks.
Gen. Alexander, President of the
C. R. R., fears that direct trade with
Stuthern ports cannot be established,
because the great steamship lines be
tween New York and Europe carry
freight for almost nothing and depend
on the passengers travel for their pro
fits.
Advices received from all over the
State show that Hon. Robert G.
Mitchell’s prospects for being Presi
dent of 1 the next Senate are very flat
tering. His friends in thisimmediate
eection ought to be nt work for him,
and doubtless they ore. He will
make as fine a presiding oflicier as
has ever fill the chair, and his ad
ministration of affairs will be abso
lutely pure nnd irreproachable.
An Original Composition.—Here is
Tommy’s version ot “The Ox and the
Frog“An ox tramled on a frog and
squashed him. His brothers and sis
ters ran home and told their mother,
and she said, “Ho v big was he” and
they said “Awful bigand she said,
“As big as this !” and swelling herself
out; and they said,' “If you do that
again, you’ll bust;” and the old fule
done it and busted, Morrel—Never
make a fule of yourself."—Harpers

A WONDERFUL DISCOVERY
A Successful Substitute for Jute
in all its present uses—Hither
to Worthless Lands in
Southern Georgia and
Florida made very
Valuable.
There arc many things in Ibis world
for which wc can sec no use, nnd con
cerning which it is often remarked,
“I can’t sco what this was created for;
it is perfectly useless.” Scattered
over the low, flat pine lauds of Geor
gia and Florida, and other southern
states, is a plant which is too small to
be a tree and is neither good for shade
uor large enough for limber, it is not
good for food for mau or beast, it lias
no flowers and no beauty, it is only
fit to make roads rough with its roots,
and to mnkc the larmer who under
takes to clear up the land on whi'h it
grows, wish that lie had never been
born or lived to ho a farmer in the
country where the “saw pamelter”
grows.
Now all this is about to be changed
nnd this despised plant to become n
valuable product, and instead of be
ing grubbed up and burned, amid tbe
execrations of those in whose way it
grew, it will be cultivated and bless
ed. Some time ago it was found that
the stems of this plantconld be cut up
fine and used as a substitute for ani
mal hair in plastering, and there is at
Fcrnandina n v.nnufnctory for con
verting tho woody portion of the pal
metto into a substance that resembles
a very poor quality of hay, but is
said to be better than any kind of
hnir for ranking plastering stick to
gether well.
But this is as nothing to the dis
coveries made by a Mr. Wnrrand,
who has been for more than a year
engaged in experimenting with the
palmetto leaves. He has patented all
his processes and expects to have fac
tories in operationjn Savannah before
many months. He first treats the
dried leaves by a process which ex
tracts trom them tannic acid of a
quality ns good or better than that
obtained from oak bark, nnd at a cost
greatly below that of tbe bark. This
leaves tho fibre untouched, nnd this
fibro he finds longer nnd stronger than
juto and less liable to burn, and that
will not stain like pine straw. He can
make from this fibre a bagging that
will be superior in every way to jute;
a substitute for “burlaps” that will be
stronger nnd cheaper than tho materi
al now used for making grain nnd oth
er simiinr sacks; a twine that will be
cheaper and better than that now
made from jute and so extensively
used in tho northwestern states that it
hns bccu put on tho free list by the
republican tariff tinkers; and a paper
as good as manilla.
The supply of the raw material is
abundant and inexhaustible, ns the
growth is not destroyed, only the tops
being used aud the roots left to pro
duce more, and it grows on land here
tofore considered useless and worth
less.
This is truly a wonderful discovery,
and, if Mr. Warrami accomplishes
one-half of what he expects, will be a
great blessing to the south, nnd espe
cially to portions of it heretofore con
sidered almost barren nnd woiliiless,
A Chapter on Consistency.
The truly consistent mind recogni
zes the inevitability of change. Only
blockheads who refuse to listen to the
teachings and illustrations of time and
nature, are constant to the rules and
systems ol the comparatively unen
lightened past. “Old things are piss
ed away.” Let us study the present,
and study it with reference to the fu
ture. Fxcept the Author of all things,
nothing iu the universe is “the same
yesterday, to-day and forever."
Gordon and Norwood, that recalls
the days of 1880 when Norwood at
tacked Gordon. Then it was said
Norwood had the towns and cities
and Gordon and Colquitt the country,
but when the returns came in it did
not seem that Norwood hail much of
either.
Gov. Gordon denies using the very
slroDg language attributed to hint by
Mr. Peck. He does not deny that
his sentiments in regard to Livingston
are strong, but says truly that no man
ever heard him use such language as
that attributed to him by Peek.
