The Thomasville times-enterprise. (Thomasville, Ga.) 1889-1904, February 11, 1893, Image 4
Here’s a clincher from the Phils
dolphin Record:
“General DavU, editor of the
"Doylestown Democrat,” speaks of
pension matters with the advantage
of a double experience—first, as
'gallant soldier; secondly, as a pension
agent, with the opportunity for ob
nervation of the working ol the pen
sion lawn afforded while acting in
that capacity. In a late number of
his newspaper we find the following
paragraph:
“If pension reformers are really in
earnest, they will begin-by repealing,
or suspending, the dependent bill of
1890. It is the worst of all pension
legislation; it lets in every bounty-
jumper,- hammer, shyster and de
aerter, In fact all the disreputable
classes, who are now robbing the
taxpayers without being entitled to a
dollar by reason of any service.”
There appears to be qui’£ an
amount ol scarlet lever in Savannah
We take the following from the last
issue of the Press, in reference toihe
disease: “People in the western
half of the city last nights discussed
nothing so much as the placing of
yellow signals outside of several
houses in which there are cases of
scarlet fever. On one or two houses
there were pieces of cloth at the
door,' with Cards underneath telling of
the reason of the presence of the un
pleasant sign of contagion. Mothers,
in particular, were glad to see the
warnings appear, as it will enable
them to keep their children away
from the immediate vicinity of houses
thus infected.”
Serious Opposition Denied.
Washington, Feb. 3.—-The nomi
nation of Judge Jackson rb Justice
Lamar’s successor was more talked
about in the cloak rooms of the Sen
ate and the House than any other
subject to-day. While there was
«a good deal of growling among cer
tain republicans in the Senate no or
ganized movement to prevent his
confirmation was developed. The
democrats in the Senate are united
in support of Judge Jackson and
believe that they will have no diffi
culty whatever in securing prompt
and favorable consideration for his
nomination with the assistance of his
• friends on the republican side, to say
nothing of the President and members
of the supreme court.
He Raises Mules.
Talbotton, Ga., Feb. 2.—Mr.
John T. Parker, of Prattsburg, sent
in a drove of ten young mules the
other day to place on the market in
this place. Mr. Parker began raising
males three years ago on his farms in
this county and now has about thirty.
They were raised at a comparatively
small cost and Mr. Parker has found
them very profitable, as he finds no
trouble in disposing of them at the
price jo western raised mules of the
tame size.
What Mr. Parker is doing can be
clone by other southern farmers,
Stop the drain of money to the west
for mules and horses. They can be
raised in Georgia.
They Ate Him Raw.
Hamburg, Feb. 2 —Three of the
seamen of the Norwegian ship Thekla
from Philadelphia, rescued by the
Danish bark Herman after enduring
terrible sufferings on the foundering
vessel, has been arrested on a
charge of murder, the charge being
based on their own confession that
they killed and ate a sailor of the ship
in order to save themselves from
death by starvation. The sailor was a
Dutchman, and the s'arving men drew
lots as to which should die, the lot
falling to the victim twice in succes
sion. Then the others fell upon and
strangled him and devoured his flesh.
Stop and Think.
Here are wise words to the farmers
from the commissioner of agriculture
in Alabama:
It is to be regretted that southern
farmers are so short-sighted, but re
ports from many quarters indicate a
disposition on their part to overload
. on cotton. They should be warned
in time. If they produce 10,000,000
bales this year, they need not expect
to get more than 5 cents 1^ pound for
their cotton. It will not pay them to
produce over 7,500,000 bales. Every
extra bale is just so much time, labor
and money thrown away.

‘IVe bad some very memorab’e New York - Feb. 3.—President-
Christmas days in the Kouth during
the war,” said Mrs. Zebulon B. Vance,
wife of the junior United States sena
tor from North Carolina to a Buffalo
Express writer. “That of 1861 was
different from any that had preceded
it, because we were in arms against
the federal government, and many
of the male guests at southern homes
that day wore confederate uniforms.
Much of the talk at the Christmas
dinner table was 'of sieges and battles
and marches. Bat we were, all full
of hope and confidence. For south
ern bravery and fighting blood there
could be no such word as fail in such
n struggle, and we had not the slight
est doubt of flie triumphant success
of out cause. The old time prodigali
ty of southern hospitality was at its
bight that Christmas.
€, The negroes came up from their
quarters in the early morning for the
‘Chris^fous giFs, and as each one was
liberally remembered with such
tokens as the cherished African nature
most delights in, every ebony face
shone with ‘delight, and lond and
characteristic were their expressions
of pleasure. Great bowls of eggnog
and punch had been prepared and
were sot out in the great . halls.
Wood fires—‘just to take de chill ofl’
—went roaring up the wide fireplaces,
invited guests gathered about the
hearthstone, and there were feasting,
music and dancing.
“Christmas, 1862, found us but
poorly prepared to celebrate it Our
supplies were few, and confederate
money was at a heavy discount
Wood was $10 a oord, and turkeys
$11 each, but even at those prices
many were still able to enjoy them!
and there were still some toys to give
the little folks. Then came the bit
ter year of 1863, with the fall of
Vicksburg and the defeat at Gettys
burg. With sad faces, harmonizing
well with their dresses of coarse black
■tuff, the women of the south devoted
themselves to picking lint and spin
ning and weaving for husbands,
fathers, brothers and sweethearts in
the field. Christmas cheer—euch as
could be obtained—cost a fabulous
sum, for one bright golden dollar
was then worth $28 in confederate
money. Sugar was from $5 to $10
per pound, turkeys $50 apiece and
flour $25 per barrel.
“Chiistmas, 1864—the last Christ*
mas of war-times—dawned, and what
a gloomy festival it was for the peo
ple of the south I Of manufactured
products we had practically none.
Our hairpins were made of long, black
thorns, with a ball of sealing
one end. We had made into dresses
every scrap of available material, and
now our gowns consisted of window
curtains, ‘home-spun* and paper mus
lin or colored- cambric that had once
done duty as a lining, while our feet
were incased in home-made cloth
shoes. At a Christmas dinner in a
typical southern home that day the
festive board presented a turkey that
had cost $200, a ham worth $300,
hominy and potatoes at correspond*
ingly high prices, and black molasses
—as desert—at $60 per gallon. The
confederate dollar was then worth
just 2 cents in gold. Wood was $100
a cord, beef $35 a pound, flour 8600
per barrel, butter $40 per pound and
sugar $30 per pound. All was silent
in the negro quarters. There was no
singing and dancing there as usual.
The slaves having all heard of 'de
mancipation proclamation,’ knew that
they were free and had all scattered
away. Desolation seemed to reign
over everything. Of all the Christ
mas days I have known, that last
Christmas in the south in wartime is
the one of all others that I am most
certs in never to forget.”
elect Cleveland accompanied by Don
M. Dickinson arrived at his office in
the Mills building this morning at 10:3 3
o’clock. A steady stream of visitors
flocked to his rooms on the seventh
floor but the greatest discretion was
used in admitting callers and it soon
became apparent that a conference ol
more than ordinary importance was in
progress, Mr. Dickinson remained
closeted with the President-elect, res
cciving the callers with him. Among
the first to' arrive was Senator Carlisle
of Kentucky. His presence gave ere'*
deuce to the rumor that the cabinet
and its composition was being discuss

came out of the conference room, to
give reporters any information further

Bolts and the Cabinet
Des Moines, Ia„ Feb. 3.—Gov.
Boies has been offered and has de
clined the agricultural portfolio. Mr
Cleveland first invited him to join the
cabinet nearly three weeks ago and
refused to take no for an answer, writ
ing a second time to the governor and
urging him to take the place. The
governor thinks his.course m the mat
ter the only one he could honestly
take. Did he accept the President’s
offer he would place the democrats of
the state in x difficult position, and
their plans for next summer’s cam
paign would be smashed and the party
would be wiihout a leader. If Gov.
Boies had only his personal inclination
to consider he would accept the offer.

Georgia’s soldiers will find quite a
difference in the appearance of the
encampment grounds, and in thelo-

halls'and tents when they come this
year says the Griffin Call. Many
changes are taking place ont there,
and all for the better. The six mess
halls in the flat at the lower end of the
grounds, are being moved upon the

Other changes for the convenience

Judge Howell E- Jackson
This distinguished Tennessee jurist
has been appointed ij the president
to the place on the supreme beach
made vacant by the death of Justice
Lamar. The president has shown
himselt a broader man in this act
than he has been given credit for.
Out of the nine judges, only two,
Fuller and Fields, are democrats.
That distinguished court, the highest
in the land, is supposed to be non
partizan; but to fill it with members
of one political party would naturally
arouse suspicion, and perhaps, lower
the body in the estimation of the peo
ple. Mr. Harrison has acted both
wisely and patriotically in the matter.
It is said that there is no doubt about
Judge Jackson’s confirmation by the
senate.
Here is what Ex-Secretary of State
Bayard says about Hawaii: “I
tainly feel that those islands ought to
remain either in the control of the
islanders or in our own control. Wo
have already placed ourselves on rec
ord as asserting the supremacy of our
rights and our interests there. Eng
land and France’s attitude, as shown
in the Sackvillo-West letter, was one
of abstention, which England invited
us to join. But I said to them,
Mr. Everette said a long time ago to
Great Britain, with reference to Cuba*
that the islands possessed an interest
and importance to us which they
could not have for any other power,
and should not be permitted to pass
from the present hands into those of
any other nation.” It is supposed
that Mr. Bayard reflects the-.views of
Mr. Cleveland, in what he says.
