Take care of the common schools,

Leaving the south entirely out of the
calculation tfce democrats will have 30
majority in the next congress.
In 1888 the democrats had 100,000
majority on . the popular vote—this
year they had 800,000 majority.

And gallant, scarred Wade Hamti-
ton has been defeated by the people
whom he has eerved so loDg and so
faithfully.
Every true southerner will mourn the
del- at of Wade Hampton. It ought to
bring a blushing shame to every citizen
of South Carolina.

sfut the force bill as being on its last

The fight against the colleges of
Georgia is going Atlanta. Itea*

and the demagogues will go to the

An esteemed contemporary, dis

There has been an application at the
patent office for a patent on ‘‘a 15 pe—
writer that can be held on tile knee.’
Make it so that the type writer can be
held around the waist, and the patent
need not be improved further.—News
and Advertiser, Albany.
An exchange says:
Powderly has been telling the farmers
at Ocala that labor-saving machinery
is a fraud and that all electric devices
are only contrived to defraud men of a
chance to work. The Knights of La
bor pay Powderly 85,000 per annum
to talk this sort of rot.
Valentine’s bronze statue of Stone
wall Jackson has been completed, and
will be unveiled in Lexington, Va., on
the aist of next July. Jackson’s grave
is in the little coraetery near Lexing
ton, where it is marked by a plain mar
ble headstone three feet high. The
mouDd is frequently covered with
bunches oi flowers.
ANatinoal Pawn Shop.
The New York Sun points out to the
farmers the fact that the sub treasury
scheme is class legislation of the worst
form. In other words, tne farmers de
mand the right to borrow money from
the government at a rite of interest to
be fixed by themselves, but Congress
could nbt pass such a law without
placing the mechanic, the butcher and
baker, and in fact all men engaged in
industrial pursuits on the same footing
with the larmers and the result would
be the turning of the government into
an immense pawn shop. The more
intelligent members of the Alliance re
alize that the sub treasury bill is utterly
absurd, and there is every reason to
believe that the steady opposition
which it is sure to meet with, will soon
cause the Alliance to abandon it and
demand nf,Congress that the present
distress ol the larmers be relieved by
such legislation as will open addition
al markets for their produc s and re
move the tariff which they now have to
pay on the neccessaries of life. —Sa
vannah Times.
A Denunciation.
Gen. J. H. Rice, of Arkansas, at
Ocala last week, in a speech, said:
I denounce the Republican party as
unworthy of existence. No man hon
ors it more for what it his done in the
past than I. It restored the National
Government and for this I give it all
honor. Time has corrupted it. T he
only ambition ol its members now is to
scramble for loaves and fishes. It had
its origin in d.e highest impul cs of In
man freedom and I gloried in being
one of its champions for neatly a quar
ter of a century, hut now it has fallen-
from its high estate and has become a
plunderer. It professes religion but it
is an infioel. It professes freedom,
but in reality is a treacherous tyrant.
It is a gigantic conspiracy to erect a
moneyed imperialism upon the ruins
ol free institutions. It is the cham
pion of trusts, monopolies and corpo
rations to grind down the toiling mass-
Tho New Apportionment.
Representative Frank, of St Louis,
seems to have solved the reapportion-
meat scheme by presenting the most
p.pular plan yet submitted With
356 members, as provided in this bill,
no state would lose a member,
Seventeen states would gain members,
to-wit: Alabama, California, Geir
gia, Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky, Maine,
Maryland, Massachusetts, Oregon,
Pennsylvania, South Carolina, South
Dakota, Texas, Vermont, Virginia
aud Wisconsin.
Under the hill, fixing the ratio at
173.901, every state would have a rep
resentative which has population in
extess.of 86,950 nfter it has been
allowed its full representation on the
ratio agreed upon. Tho Democrats
would securc,eight additional members
on the resulting fractions of popula
tion. The Republicans would get
nine members on fractions.—Chroni

Old Hoar, the Miss Noncy of the
senate, backed by Ben Harrison, the
smallest man on the continent, is work
ing eight and day to pass a sectional
force bill, designed to perpetuate bis
party ia power, while the country i*
going through a terrible financial cri
sis. The old sinner has been appealed
to by the democrats to allow some
legislation to relieve the money pres
sure. but be refuses, and says the
force bill, by which the south IS to be
pot under federal supervisors, is of
more Importance than financial legis-
To Nayiflate tho Air.
The Savannah Daily Times says:
Mr Pennington, the principal in
ventor of tho now air ship which is
backed by 820,000,000 of capital,
says that about the first of tho year
he will sail into St. Louis, which is
180 miles from the factory where the
vessel is beiug made. Thence he pro
poses to go to Chicago and on to New
York. The ship is 200 feet long and’
has cabins made of aluminum. Mr.
Pennington will bo accompanied by
his associate, Mr. Butler, half dozen
newspaper men and any of the stock
holders who wish to go. It is not
probable that the ship’s passenger ae
commodations will be over-crowded
on its first trip.
If the trial trip demonstrates that
aerial navigation is possible by man,
a vast revolution in the methods of
transportation will be seen before tho
end of the century.
Georgia’s Encampment.
Atlanta, Ga., Dec. u.—’The mili
tary was favored again to day by the
passage through the Senate of the
House bill authoring the purchase of
a permanent encampment site. This
bill seems destined to breed lively riv
alry among the various [sections of the
state, which will be certain to bid for
i the prize when the question ol location
{is to be settled.
