If Tom Wooltolk received forgive ness, there is a chance for everybody. The political pot is bubbling and boiling over in Georgia, and some body is going to get scalded. If Chicago moves at the present rate of speed, she will get ready for the world’s lair, >bout the year 1900. Charley Crisp has been speaking n New England. He is hopeful, beltev- tng that the democrats will carry the r.ext house. Two weddings come off at the Pied mont Exposition to-day. They are used to draw a crowd. This looks very much like prostituting "the holy ordinance to an unholy use. Monroe county, one of the strongest alliance counties in the state, has de cided for Gordon, at a regular prima ry ordered for the purpose of settling the question. Good for old Monroe. There are 138 counties in Georgia, 122 of them are tapped by railroads. Thomas county has something over counties through which they pass This adds nearly three quarters of million to the taxable property Thomas county. All About Sewing Machines. New York, Oct. 27, 1890. Editor Tints-.{xtekprisk There lias been no inventiou of the pre ent century which lias proved such Pailt Tmts-EtiTtarais* n published machine. With it she can do more itmj meriting (Monday excepted.) work and with greater case in a day, 1 • e tv tit Li Tmts-Ki»"rinpiu»» i* pabliihcd than w ; t h hand needle in six months. Who invented this wonderful labor .sreecniPTiov kath. saving machine? I do not know. i-Rnthprui, . . . $5 00 Some claim it for Mr. Singer; others ■| 1 00 for Mr. Howe. At the present time we have in the market, Singer, Howe, Wheeler & Wilson, Wilcox & Gibbs, Domestic, Weed, Household and some others. Which of all these is the best I do not kuow ; and if I did, it would be unfair to say, when all are so good. Wonderful improvements in all these machines have been made during the past fifteen or twenty years. One wonderful improvement was made by Mr. Howe, (and which all have adopt ed,) viz: by which a locked stitch could be made in the fnhric, and pre vents raveling. At the present time, Indies (or at least those not unwilling to work,) make their own dresses, and most of the clothes worn by the male members of their families, 011 these machines. I have heard tell of a machine in Chi cago into which if a pig is thrown in at one end, it comes out iu sausages at the other in a few minutes. This is not more wonderful thnu what is done by a sewing machine- You throw a piece of cloth at it and with a little manipulation by the hands and feet, and out comes a beautiful garment. It not only sews, blit it hems, braids, fells, gathers, quilts, makes button holes, andldontknow what else. About twenty years ago I sent to my daughter up in Vermont a Wheel er & Wilson machine ; not beeause I thought it the best, but because I hap pened to know the proprietor. On a recent visit to her I saw that the ma chine was worn out, and almost use less. I sent her a new one. On its receipt she wrote me: Last night my pretty machine came and it is a beauty and does work to perfection. It is so unlike my old one, and has so many improve ments that it hardly seems right to have the Dame of Wheeler & Wilson upon it. 1 seamed up some long seams in a pair of pants, and nearly ma ie a shirt. You are the best father “ever was horned.” Didn’t this pay me ? The best and most useful Christmas sar sxsgr- isrAiei ssusti taxing ^ railroads in the h d for ,„ a years to come. Sidney Smith truly of says: “Mankind are always happier for having been happy ; so that if you make them happy now, you make them happy twenty years hence by the memory of it.” G. Q. Coi.ton ■ To the Democrats of Thomas County. On the fourth day of next month an election 0! a congressman from the set otd district comes off. At a dem ocratic conven ion, held in Albany, Hon. H. G. Turner was unanimously renominated lor the 52nd congress. In view of the arbitrary, unjust and partisan rulings of Reed and the re publican leaders, it is highly essential that our representatives should go to Washington backed by a rousing big majority. It has developed, only within the past few days, that Turner is to have opposition. Every true democrat in Thomas county should turn out and vote. Give onjday, or a part of it, to the cause of good gov ernment. Thomas county democrats have never in the past failed to do their duty ; and they should not fail now. It will not do to say. “O, Tur ner will he elected anyhow.” There is danger in this course, and most sc rious dinger. Let us, as life-long democrats, lock shields, as we have so oilen done in the past political battles fought in this country, and victory will again perch on our banners. Votes count. A man owes something to his home and his government, and he should be willing to turn out and vote. In union there is strength, A few men cannot carry an election. Thomas county can, and should, give Turner the largest majority of any county in the district. Let us do it. Apathy is the only danger ahead of us. This should be overcome. Self-confidence is a good thing, hut when it keeps a voter away from the polls, it is a had dung. The fact that our candidate is certain to be elected, should not les sen his legitimate vote. Then turn out on the fourth day ol November and give the nominee of the party a full vote in the iron ribbed, unterrified, unflinching democratic county of Thomas. R. 1’. Doss, Chm’n Dem. Ex. Com.

Georgia Convicts. The biennial report of the peniten tiary department is now complete. It covers a period of two years—since Oct. 1, 1888. During that time 2511 convicts have been handled, by far the largest number ever recorded for the tame length of time. There were in the penitentiary Oct. 1, 1890, 1694 con- victs—1478 colored male, 168 white male, 48 colored femnlc. Not a Bingle white woman is now in the Georgia penitentiary. About 10 per cent, of the 1694 con victs are serving life sentences. Col quitt, Dawson, Milton, Town3 apd White counties have no representa tion in the penitentiary population. Towns and Colquitt had nouo wheu the last report was made, two years ago. Chatham furnishes more convicts than any other county—190.. Fulton comes next with 109. Jt is an in variable rule that the rural or agri cultural counties contribute fewer convicts than their proportion by population. Chatham alone, for ex ample, has as many convicts as 25 rural counties. The counties of Chatham, Bibb, Fulton, Richmond and Muscogee contribute more than 29 per cent, of the entire number of convict*, showing, as Assistant Prin cipal Keeper Shubrick remarks, that the large cities arc becoming centers of crime as well as of population, education and enlightenment. —This is ihe way Puck sums up the political situat on in Georg a : "Hello! been riding a bycicle ?’’ “No.” “Prize fighting ?,’ “No.” “Railroad accident ?’’ No.” “Mule kick ?” “No." “Well, whaf in the thunder is the matter ?” “Senator from Georgia.” The Atlantic Coast Line will hereaf ter run its trains into Charleston. Heretofore they have transferred pas sengers for the city at Ashley Junction. Charleston is very much claied. They now talk of putting up a 8300,000 hotel.
