This would he most unfortunate.
The question of betterments should be
settled.
Au esteemed contemporary puts
it tersely in this paragraph :
There are few men who could write
12,000 words without expressing a
single original idea, but Mr. Benjamin
Harrison has accomplished the diffi
cult feat.
There are said to he 122 Americans
who arc worth over 85,000,000 each,
35 810,000,000 each, and 13 who
are worth more than 8100,000,000.
And there are probably not more
than a dozen newspaper men in the
whole lot. There’s something wrong
in this.
The Constitution gets ofl this good
one:
Editor—Here’s a fellow Bends me a
story called ‘ A Serrnan On the
Mount.” It begins: “Blessed ere
the merciful, for they shall obtain
mercy.” Stole the whole thing from
Shakespeare!
Foreman—It sounds more like Tai
nt age.
Editor—Well, lip stole it, too. I’ll
write an editorial about it and show
him up.
Hon. Maston O’Neal.
The Constitution pays this hand
some aud well deserved tribute to
Senator O'Neal, of Bainbridge:
Hon. Maston O’Neal, senator from
the eighth district, who has been con
fined ut bis home in Bainbridge for
two or three weeks past, has returned
to the capital. Mr. O’Neal is one of
tue most popular aud progressive
members of the senate, aud his many
Irieuds in that body, and admirers in
Atlanta, are glad to see him well and
at Ills p i»l agaiu.

Tho Military Bill.
Atlanta, Dec. 9.—The finance
committee had under consideration
this afternoon the bill of Mr. Holiz*
claw appropriating £25,000 annually
for the equipment and maintenance
of. the state militia, Tbc message
'of Governor Nortken this morning
bore good fruit, for the bill will be
favorably reported, and to-night At
lanta’s soldiery felt greatly elated.
, President Hall Talks.
The endorsement of the sub-treas
ury plan at Ocala, was by no means
unanimous. There were many of the
ablest allianccmen in the convention
who opposed it. Among others Presi
dent Hall, of the Missouri state alli
ance, made a ringing argument against
it.
I am, he said, uncompromisingly
opposed to this scheme, and for the
following reasons:
First—It is in violation of the con
stitution of the United Stales.
Second—It is subversive of, and di-
rictly opposed to the constitution, the
principles and the demands of our own
order.
>■ Third—It is unjust, and inequitable.
Fourth—It is very extravagant. .
Fifth—It would bring financial ruin
to the farmers of our entire country
and to all other classes of business.
Sixth—It will have and is now hav
ing the effect of drawing the minds of
farmers and other laborers of our
country from the greatest curse of the
age, class legislation, if adopted, will
commit us to that principle which will
lasten these curses upon us for all
time.
Mr. Hall then took up the objections
in the order named and discussed
them with many forcible arguments
and illustrations.
Replying to an insinuation of Mr.
Liv ngston that the men who opposed
the sub-tieasurv bill were either unable
io comprehend it, or were opposed to
the best interests of the alliance, Mr.
Carskadon said that he pleaded guilty
to a lack of ability to discover any
beneficial results to follow tie enact
meni ot such a bill.
He closed by a suggestion to the
honoiable brother from Georgia that
it would be wise in the majority to give
the weaker brethren a little longer time
io study this profoundly muddy ques
tion.
Will Be Plenty of Snow.
Weather Prophet Beebe, who lives
ou a high mountain top on the line
between Lee and Great Barrington,
was asked what would be the weather
in New England this winter.
He said that he had received many
letters asking this very same question.
The president of tho Kickerbocker
Ice Company had written him, the
president of the Naugatuck Company-
had written to him and be lias receiv
ed several letters from Boston earn
estly inquiring if there is going to be
the scarcity of ice this winter that
there was last.
Mr. Beebe says that this will be a
cold and severe winter. Ice will be
abundant. Snow in New England
will be deep, coming on about the
first of January and lasting until late
in the spring. Berkshire will bavo
something like 90 days of sleigh
ing.
There will be more snow in Boston
than usual, and the New England
coast will see snow two feet deep be
fore the first of February.
The winds will blow at such a
high rate that the winter will bo
more severe than the one when tho
forefathers landed on Plymouth
rock.
Tho mecury will often be below
zero, and there will be no scarcity of
ice anywhere in the Eastern States.—

Mr. Odom of Colquitt.
Under the head ot legislative gos
sip, the Constitution says:
Mr. Odom, of Colquitt is serving
his first term, aud is doing his whole
duty by bLicoustituents.He is a Baptist
minister, at borne, and has only lived
in tbc country a short while. His
race was u remarkable one, running
ns lie did against an ex-member who
is related to the strongest families in
the county.
That county is developing very
rajiidly. It is one of the famous
sheep walks in southern Georgia, and
the people, up to a tew years ago, os a
rule followed stock raising.
But since tho Georgia Southern
railroad has been built things have
undergone a great change. The splen
did pine forests are being worked for
limber aud turpentine. Many fine
'farms have been built up in the
couuty aud the pcoplo are thriving
and prosperous. A new road is being
projected which will pass near the
county site, Moultrie, which will
bring the country into still closer
connection with the outside world.
