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.— Boston Globe. 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. AMUSEMENTS. MATINEE.
