The entire republican party was
paralyzed on Tuesday.
Of course Col. Bill Harris, of
Worth, was elected clerk of the sen
ate.
The people couldn’t swallow the
force bill. They spewed it out on
Tuesday.
The democrats will enjoy their
Thanksgiving dimier. The turkey
will taste mighty good.
Gallant, game Florida comes to
the front with flying colors, and a sol
id domocratic delegation in congress.
The democrats should give Tom
Reed some of his medicine, in the
52nd congress. It would be mighty
bitter.
Little Benny Harrison went to In
diana to vote. His friend and ally,
‘ Bill Dudley, found it convenient to
stay out of Indiana on election day.
That combination against Mark
Hardin and Charley Hansell didn t
work. They are both important fac

The election Tuesday should have
closed Jo Cannon’s dirty mouth. If
ho is reflected it will show what kind
"of a blackguard his constituents pre
fer to represent them in congress.
. Gnyte MeLcndon never telegraph
ed a more welcomo message to Tbom*
asville, or anywhere else, than the one
announcing the election of Bob Mitch
ell to the presidency of the Senate.
The democracy of South Carolina
Stood by the regular nominee, Mr. Til-
man. The party cannot afford to split
in the Palmetto State. Nor in any
other Southern state, for that matter.
Wonder how Ben Harrison will en
joy his Thanksgiving dinner ? Prob
ably he feels so bad about the result
of Tuesday’s election, that he will not
issue any proclamation on the subject.
Harrison has been blowing around
calling an extra session of congress.
The result of Tuesday’s elections has
put a new phase on the situation.
The little man in the white house will
not call an extra session now. H-a r-

On Deoember 27th of this year, the
twenty years’ lease of the Western
and Atlantic Railroad Company ex
pires on the State road of Georgia,
now known os the Western and At
lantic. The lessees of tho road have
piid during this time the sum of
8$,000,000, or almost three times the
amount it would take to build and
. equip the same road. The Nashville,
Chattanooga and tit. Louis railroad
bos leased the same road for twenty-
nine years, taking possession the first
day of January, 1891, and for this
lease they pay 835,000 per month in
advance, or a total of $12,180,000,
mors than six times the amount it
would QM it to build and equip it.—

Mrs. Lucretia McCann, probably
the oldest white person in that sec
tion of Georgia, died at the home of
her daughter, Mrs. John W. Brooks,
in Blakely, Oct. 30, 1890. The tie
censed was born on July 30, 1797,
being just three months over 93 years
ot age at the time of her death. She
was twice married, the latter time to
Martin McCann, a soldier of the war
of 1812 under Gen. Andrew Jackson
and her numerous descendants arc
scattered from Georgia to Texas,
some of them probably of the fifth
generation.
The democrats will have a big
working majority in the next house,
tThe following members are mentioned
ns the Speaker of the 52nd congress
Charles F. Crisp, of Georgia ; W,
D. Bynum, of Indiana; W. H. Hatch
of Missouri; ‘‘Bill” Spriugcr. of
Illinois ; Benton McMillin, < f Ten
nessee ; Roger Q. Mills, of Texas
McCreary, of Kentucky, and perhaps
William L. Wilson, of West Vir
ginia.
The chances are that Charley Crisp
will wear the honors.
Planters will be greatly interested
to know that a very handy machine
tor picking cotton 1ms been invented,
and the first bale picked by it was
exhibited in Memphis last week. It
it will do all that the inventor claims
for it, the planter can, by its use, place
himself in a much more independent
position than he now is. He says it
will do as much work ns fifty men.
Should that prove true a large in
crease in the cotton crop may hereaf
ter be expected.—News.
Many a young man has been misled
by Bob iDgersoll’s advice: “if you
have only a half a dollar,” said the
eloquent infidel, “spend it like a
prince.” This is well enough, but it
should be recollected that a wise
prince—such ns prince Bismarck—
knows tho value of a half a dollar,
and when ho spends it he gets his
money’s worth in some shape or other.
The proper utilization of the Bnmil
things—the trifles of life—is the foun
dation of success.—Atlanta Constitu
tion.
Some papers in Georgia did not
seem to know that Senator Mitchell
was in the race for president of the
Senate. They woke up on Wednes
day to find the wire grass Senator
from tho 7th wielding tho president’s
gavel in the Senate of Georgia. They
could only rub their eyes and stare.
Pattison, the game young democrat
ol Pennsylvania, knocked the “stuffin’’
out of Quayism. When the Keystone
State reverses her 80,000 republican
majority, there must be something ex
tremely rotten in Denmark; nay .rot
ten in the republican party of Penn
sylvania.
Among the most pleasing features
of tho great democratic tidal
wave is the fact that New Hampshire
has wheeled into the democratic col
umn, and that old Grauny Blair'will
bo relegated to private life. Tho
Senate will know him no more for
ever.
The legislature will get down to
work in a day or two. It is thought
the session will not last longer than
forty days. If a flood of local bills
are introduced it will be difficult to
finish up tho work within the time
mentioned.
Democracy is again triumphant.
Tho lines aro formed, and the great
battle of 1892 will be fought by the
democratic party, fought with a dash
and heroism which will challenge tho
admiration of the whole country.
Governor Merriam, of Minnesota,
whose re-election is still in doubt,
owns a ltfrotome winter home in
Thomasvillc. Merriam may pull
through, but his democratic opponent,
Wilson, is right on his heels.
McKinley, the author of the robber
tarifi bill, has been snowed under.
Every honest man in the country
ahould rejoice at this.
It is doubtful whether the legisla
ture elected in Kansas will select Mr.
Ingallt. He could be spared.
