Congress is again in session. Il was

And Tommie Reed is wielding his lit

The chances are that Zeb \ ance
will pull through in North Carolina,
but Hampton's chances in .South
Carolina do not appear to he very
good. We hope Wade Hampton

Cairo, not to be out done by
Washington City, has established a
congress of her own. We hope they
will not elect a Reed for speaker.
Cairo’s congress will meet every two
weeks. Bills will be introduced, dis
cussed, and passed or defeated. They
will hardly pass any pension bills.
The railway bridge across the

Some Views of Mr. Mills.
Representative Mills, of Texas, did
a great deal of campaign work during
a few months immediately precceding
the recent election. He is now in
Washington, giving lii.s friends the
result of his experiences. Hesaysthat
lie does not intend to accept a re-elec
tion to the House, and will retire to
private life at the cud of tile Fifty-
second congress, unless his state sends
him to the Senate.
lie is satisfied that tiie McKinley
bill was the main cause ot the recent
democratic victory, and that the dent
ocrats will retain for a long time the
majority of the voters of the country.
He says that the talk about the alii
ance becoming a third party is all
nonsense. In the next national cam
paign the party lines will be drawn
strictly between tlie democrats and re
publicans, and Cleveland will, iu all
probability, lie the standard bearer of
the democrats, and Blaine of the re
publicans
Speaking of tl.e sub-treasury hill,
Mr. Mills said: “It is idle to talk of
the sub-treasury hill. The democrat
ic party can never, as long as it exists,
which will he as long as it is true to
S'.rict constructionist ideas, endorse
such an unconstitutional scheme. Mr.
Tildcn, in his letter to the Iroquois
Club, stilted the principal of the dem
ocratic party in one sentence: "The
general government should do nothing
for the state iv liich the state can do
for itself, and uo government should
do anything for^he individual which
he can do for himself.” We ought
never to go away from the doctrine.
The democratic party believes that
the citizen is able to take care of him
self and run his own finances. We
propose to let him do it and keep as
far away from paternalism as possible.”
It is probable that less will be heard
of the sub-treasury bill in the Fifty-
second congress than lias been or will
be heard in this. The alliance lead
ers know that it is not a practicable
measure. It 1ms been pushed-to the
front for certain purposes which, as far
as they can be, has'been’aecotnplished.
It aided some alli.incemen to get into
Congress. But they were, aud still are,
B ncere in their demand for it. They
will eventually see that it would not
benefit them in the least if it were to
become a Jntv.—News.

They are Passing Away.
Gen. John 11. Gordon, in a recent
speech at Millen, Ga., closed with the
following pathetic words. “If the peo
ple are really tired of soldiers and
want a candidate of some other sort
you need not be long in finding him,
but to all who fee! that way, let not
your hearts be troubled by the pres
ence of old soldiers or generals; they
will not be in your way or any other
man’s way much long- r. There is a
silent reaper more po verful than poli
tical plotters whose scythe is gradually
mowing down those brave old veter
ans and removing them to that ever
lasting camping giound beyond the
silent river.” Wait a little while lon
ger and the last hero of the great ar
mies of Lee and Johnson, of Jackson
and Hood, will be out of your way.
They will soon be gone—transferred
to another field and before another
tribunal, where truth and honor and
fidelity to principle will be fully reeog-

riers against courage and self-sacrifi
cing devotion to the Confederate
cause, or against the brave old warri
ors who served and suffered, and who
cheerfully offered their blood and lives
at the call of conscience and of coun
try.”

Give the Poor and Laborers a
Chance.
The Augusta Chronicla fays:
A hill now pending before the
Georgia Legislature would prevent
the running of excursion trains and
the giving of excursion ratPs on Sun
day. This would affect many people
in Augusta who arc in the habit of
spending the day at Tybce during
the heated term. Kvory week dur
ing the summer large crowds take
advantage of cheap tates to the coast,
and Sunday is the only day the work
ingman can make this trip. Such a
law would work a real hardship down
here. The rich man can take his out
ing and stay a month nt the seaside.
But the poor man must wait for the
excursion rate and the Suwlay sched
ule.
