Read the specials below. They tell

Tuesday was a groat day for the
democracy. The grand old South
shows up solid; Massachusetts wheels
into line; New Hampshire is ours,
Tammany wins, and the democrats
will control the next house. This is
glory enough. Old Georgia, always
true, sends a solid ten. It is her way
of doing. But, best of all, is tho os-
suraucc, received last evening, that
McKinley, tho author of the robber
tnrifl bill, has been defeated. This
caps the climax of tho grnud series of
victories won by tho uulerrifled de
mocracy, ou Tuesday. The old party
still survives. It is in the ring, and
in to stay. If will not down. Three
tiu.es three, and a tiger, for the de
mocracy of the United States.

Enterprise was received yesterday:

Boh Mitchell elected, and tho
whole world gone democratic.
8. G. McLendon.
The news spread. rapidly, and the
liveliest expressions of gratification
were hoard on every hand. It is
safe to say that no newg was ever
received in Thomasville which pro
duced more enthusiasm. Aside from
the real merits of the man, his warm
magnetism wins friends everywhere.
No wonder, then, that here, where I10
is best known, among the people with
whom lie has always lived, his eleva
tion to the presidency of the Senate
should havo been hailed with gladness
on every hand. And it was genuine
gladness; there was no shallowness or
hollowness about it; it was seen in
every eye and beamed from every
face.
The Senator from the 7th district
will make a presiding officer worthy
ot the distinguised position to which
bis merits have elevated him.
The following spccinl wus received
las’, night:
Atlanta, Ga.. Nov. 5, 1890.

Carpets andTbier Accessories,
The time is certainly here
when you arc thinking of your
new carpet, and you could select
no better time to purchase it.
We are turning out more car
pets than any two houses in
tozon. Why? because we have
the assortment to select from,
and the prices are right.
We advise you to purchase
your carpets now, for as sure as
two and two make four—you
will, pay more two months hence.
The McKinley tariff bill has
caused an advance in wool, and
it will be impossible for carpet
dealers to duplicate their stock
at former prices. Naturally it
will cause an increase to the
consumer. Our advice is plain.
We have only the following
inducements to offer—first the
largest stock—second lowest pri
ces—third thatcarpets and rugs
arc cheaper now than they will
probably ever be again.
Out Stock is Composed
-OF-
INGRAIN — BRUSSELS —BODY
AND TAPESTRY, MOQUET AND
