Take care of the common schools, but do n*ot wipe out higher education. 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. You can’t • hold the legislature in session during the holidays. The mein bers hava a right to sp nd Christmas at home. 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. Telegrams from Washington repre- sfut the force bill as being on its last legs, ft is tottering, and old Hoar is in the dumps. Better news could not be sent out from Washington. The fight against the colleges of Georgia is going Atlanta. Itea* son will resume her sway afterawhile, and the demagogues will go to the tear. Do these men think there s . ,nld be no college education? An esteemed contemporary, dis cussiug :he financial situation, asks: • Where is ttli the money?” ■* We refer our contemporary to our subsetibers We presume tbey have it. 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 cle. FURNITURE GEO. W.

Stop the steal. Is 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. is FLOUR P ATENT ■d a H 0 id o P a p 01 SIDE BOARDS AND HAT RACKS AT COST If you will bring n\pney with you, we will sell you furniture at you own price. ‘ MATTINGS AND RUGS CHEAP.
