Han. Robt, S, Mitchell.
A few days since the Constitution
sent one f»t Ua stall Mr. I*. J. Moran,
* to ThomaavilW for the purpose ol
interviewing Hon. Robt. G. Mitchell,
ex-president of the Senate. Col.
Mitchell has been prominently men
tioned as a candidate for governor,
and he has a ho t of friends through-
ont this sec: ion of the st ate, and in
fact throughout the entire tta'p, who
would - give him a cordis! support.
This end of the state is entitled to
recognition, and the friends ot the dis
tinguishwl gentleman irom Thonial
think he is the man fur governor.
The ex senator is not an tffice seeker,
and has never been ouo, but he may
be forced into the race for governor
. all the earoe. South Georgia is proud
of him and would give him a hearty
support. The interview with our dis
tinguished fellow-citir-iu waa published
in Sunday’s Cooatitution. It was the
topic of conversation among politic
ians yesterday, Mr. Mitchell ex
presses bis vie vs lully, clearly and
unreservedly, and with a frankness
characteristic of the man.
To the question, aa to what legi&la-
tion was necces3ary for the relief of
the people, Col. Mitchell replied:
That is a big question. Had you
thought that it was one of the
most difficult problems for human
solution? Yet I believe when legis
lation is enacted in ths wisdom of ex
perience, the justice of upright mo
tives and the moderation of mature
statesmanship, we wi 1 have attained
near unto its solution How are we
to arrive at what they most need ?
What is the beat for the whole people?
What are the demands of the hour?
Under our blessed form of republican
government the people speak ont
themselves through their chosen
representatives, and in solemn con
vention assembled declare to the world
their fixed principles, and formulate
such demauds upon their government
aa will bent subserve their material
welfare and conduce most to their
happiness.
“The people of this country have
exercised this privilege and inalien
able right to assemble themselveo to
gether,” continued colonel Mitchell,
“and through ihe agency of their
chosen representatives, patriots and
statesmen of that grand old unterri
fied, indivisible and indestructable
democratic party, erected a platform
of principles and outlined a course of
legislation that they believe will bring
safety and prosperity to the whole
people.
By what better mode or human
contrivance could the deranuds and
necessiths of the people be ascertained,
I know of none. Then i f . seemed to
me the very first and paramount duty
of the hour is to adhere strictly to the
democratic platform.
“1. Because ;»s true at.d faithful
democrats we nrc bound by it. We
made it. The. deni- crntic party by
solemn net in convention at Chicago
is pledged to it.
“2. Because up u that platform
the democratic party achieved
tory unparalleled in its history, show
ing that the great ms forit y of the peo
pie in this broad union are in accord
with the principles and in sympathy
with the laws sought to be enforced
by that platform.
“In my judgment, the three most
potent factori in the success of the
democratic party in the last election
was the party declaration in it* plat*
form /or
“Tariff reform,
“Free silver coinage and
“The repeal of the 10 per cent tax
on state banks.
“These issues were discussed in
extenso from Maine to California and
from the lake-* to the gulf.
“Surely, in Georgia, we all who
took the stump advocated these
/ measures aa pure democratic doctrine.
The people so understood it and their
votes attest their approval.
“Now, I ntn aware that there are
some good democrats r.nd able patriots
who claim that the platform does not
demand tbo free coinage of silver;
that it nowhere appears ia the plat
form. With great respect and rfe
ference to them, it seems so plain to
me that I cannot see bow any man
need err therein. We ho’a to the use
of both gold an 1 silver as standard
. money of the country. There shall
be coinage of both gold and silver on
terms of equality without discrimina
tion against eitht r metal.
“I firmly believe if congress could
argue upon some wise silver legisla
tion in conned ion with the repeal of
, the Sherman act, it would be a great
relief to the country and go a long
way toward restoring prosperity and
hope to the people.
“One of the most potent reasons
why the eastern money'kings so bit
terly oppose the free coinage of silver
is its increase of the circulating medfo
am of the country. It 4s to their
interest to contract the currency, to
£ive money a fictitious value, if yon
• . nplease. It is to the people’s interest,
and I mean by the people, all of oar
people, basines'j men of every grade
and character, farmers, professional
meD| laborers and more especially
merchants, to expand the circulating
medium to that Extent consistent
with soundness and safety. That
would gpve new life and snap to bus
iness, revive languishing enterprises
and put the wheels of commerce in
rapid motion to the^ delight of the
great masses once mor>. I, for one,
do not believe there is enough money
' <S
to do the business of this country.
To 'prevent disaster and sometimes
ruin—$25 per capita is not euffici nt.
Silver legislation, it seems to mo. U
of equal importance with the repeal
of the Sherman'act, and they ought
to go together or there ougbt to be a
certain a.-sorance that the one would
immediately follow the other. This
acqomp'Uhed, speedy reform -of the
class legislated tariff, the repeal of
the 10 per cent tax upon state bonks,
a rigid economy In the administra
tion of the government and a tax
upon immense Incomes that shoo'd'be
made to h'-ar their proportion of the
burdens of government, and 1 verily
believe tb»a country would enter upon
an era of progress and prosperity not
excelled by its palmiest dajs.
“That the great democratic party,
grounded ia the affections o! the peo
ple, founded on the principles ol free
government'and justice to all men,
consistent with the forth of this great
nation, will briog about this result i
have the strongest hopes. Should
that spirit of consetvatiam and com
promise of differences among demo
crats that is characteristic of great
men result in relief to the country the
democratic pariy will have enthroned
itself in the hearts of the people for a
generation to come. ‘Democrats, get
together’ and stand together. The
welfare of yonr country claims it, the
future of your party demands it and
democrats everywhere hop© for it.”
Referring to state legislation Col.
Mitchell said:
“Well, old Georgia is coming to the
front with any southern state. Let
our legislators equalise taxes as far
possible, foster the public schools,
take care of the old veterans and the
widows of veterans, pay their teachers
promptly, work the public roads and
make a wise disposition of the con
victs and all will be welL I would
like to say that I have yielded to tbis
interview, hasty and imperfect as it
simply because The Constitution
has taken the trouble to come after i%
and with a hope that a free talk on
public questions will do no barm, and
perhaps a little good. I know the
danger of interviews, and were I on
the hunt lor office would not yield to
it, but the contrary beieg true, I care
nothing for the criticisms that may
bo passed upon it.”

Fearful Lost of Ufa.
Ntn Orleans, Oct. 5.—-Nearly two

' More than half of the population

Probably one houee in ten is left

Referring to the debate in the house
on the bill to repeal the federal elec
tion laws, the correspondent of the
Atlanta Journal wires the followii g:
When Murray concluded, Ben
Russell, with a fresh white tie and a
now black prince albert, commenced
to talk. The new member from the
second jumped right into the arena
with a hallelujah true blue lick.
“He is making a constitutional argu
meat, interspersed with cold facts
drawn from the actual verietie* of
tbe political situation. He caused
much amusement by announcing that
he had listened with interest to the
gentleinau from Indiana and the
member from 8outh Carolina. ..
“At 2:30 Mr. Russell was still speak
ing and receiving close attention.”
We are glad to know that Mr, Rus
sell is fully sustaining himself, and
that he is making his mark in cons
gress.
Editor McIntosh of tbe Albany
Herald has this to say about a favored
section of Georgia:
“In what a gloriom section of the
country' is S juthwest Georgia situa
ted ! While thousand* of people are
dying from pestilences and being
killed by cj clones, on every ride, we
are spared. Little or no sickness, no
plague, no famine, no dronth. And
how tbanklul we should all be! Every
man, woman and child should send
up a night and morniog prayer to a
gracious Preserver for His continued
Ours is, indeed, a highly favored
region. Iu coming years it will be
the “garden spot” of the Empire
state of tbe Sooth.
Senator Pugh of Alabama is fight
ing the repeal of the Sherman act,
and the Mooile Register tells him that
he does not represent bis state in so
doing. Tbe Senator is mad and has
stopped his subscription to the Regis
ter. The Register fires this back at
the Senator:
“Having carelullj read the news
papers published in this state, we tell
him that, aside from half a dozen
Populist papers (which do cot confine
their attacks to Mr. Cleveland, but
are openly figuring the Democratic
party), there are not five papers in
the state which are of bis opinion.’
After tbe decks have been cleared,
after the silver question has been dis
posed of, and all other legislation
which might be affected by a new
rule, tbe Senate should adopt some
method by which a vote can be
reached in the future. Under the
hundred years standing rule of “sena
torial courtesy” a minority can, for
months, and may be for good, block
the most important legislation, legis
lation demanded by the country,
new departure is evidently' needed in
the Senate on the subject of roles.
The struggle over a vote io the
Senate will begin to-morrow night. Old
senators do not fancy an all night
session. If thv body fails to reach a
vpte, then we may expect tom: com
promise measure. It .looks like the
silver senators would be able jo filh
buster successfully against a vote.
Lincoln, Neb., Oct. 5.—After mid
night, the Nebraska State Democrat
ic Convention settled the silver dis
pute by the overwhelming defeat of
the silver element led by congressman
Wm. J. Bryan, democrat.
Bryan is chagrined and threatens
to go to the third party and be sent
to the senate.”
Mr. Bryan, it will be remembered,
electrified the couutry dunng the
debate io the house on the silver bill.
He said his state and the whole west
was. famishing f.»r more silver, and
now the democracy of Nebraska in
convention as-embed, sustains Mr.
Cleveland by a two thirds vote. This
makes six state democratic conven
tions which have endorsed the presi
dent since tbe silver senators began
their war on him.
Atlanta, Ga., Oct. 4.—Bishop

Atlanta, Ga-, Oct. 5.—The estimate
of Commissioner of Agriculture N<
bitt on Georgia’s cotton crop, issued
on the first of the month, was very
positive that the crop would not ex
ceed that of last year. Reports from
200 correspondents in different parts
of tbe state received by him since
then indicate an even greater falling
off lrom the earlier estimates, and
is now believed tbe crop will be under
that of last year by perhaps 10 per
cent. Particularly large is the falling
off in Northern Georgia.
New Orleans, Oct. 7-—Stories of
death and desolation, which continue
to come in from the storm-etricken
district of Southern Louisiana, lying
between Pointe a la Hache and the
quarantine station, are of the most
harrowing character. Scores of dead
bodies are still tying on the river’s
edge or are in the high and tang’ed
weeds of the marshes, whither they
were driven. Many of those who es
caped are starving. It is reported
that men and women, driven to des
peration by hunger, are feeding on
dead animals.
New York, October 7.—The total

Work of the Stations.
Bulletin No. 21, of the Georgia exper
imental station contains interesting ar
ticles on practical dairying, experiments
with oats, etc.
The bulletins “are sent to all persona
actually engaged in fanning who make
request for the same,” and we would ad
vise our farmers to avail themselves of
tbe benefit of studying the experiment
work conducted at the station.
On dairying in Georgia tho Director in
the last Bulletin says:
In Georgia, and the south generally,
the dose and often the fierce competi
tion that prevails between dairymen in
other sections is not manifest. Owing to
the small number of persons engaged in
dairying as a business, the high price
that dairy products command in the
market, and the'inadequate supply, dai
rying has proved, a profitable industry
near our cities and large towns, in spite,
of the comparatively crude methods and
lack of intelligent skill brought to bear.
Very few who have embarked in this
line have failed of reasonable success,
and instances might be cited in which
small fortunes have been the result of 10
or 15 years of industrious application,
joined to very little skill and knowledge
of the details of the business.
Dairying is thus becoming more and
more popular, and every year witnesses
an increase in the number of persons
who are embarking in it, and in the cap
ital that is being devoted to it. As any
business grows in importance and in the
number of its followers, competition be
comes sharper and closer, and the neces
sity for intelligence and skill becomes
more manifest.
In the opinion of the writer, based
upon tho judgment and experience of
men who are familiar with the advan
tages of other sections, and particularly
the experience of Mr. Wing, the Station
Dairyman, Georgia possesses natural ad
vantages of soil, water and climate that
should enable her to take high rank as a
dairying state., Wo believe that this in
dustry furnishes the most convenient
and promising field into which to divert
onr energies and efforts from the past
policy of southern farmers, which has
failed to result in that profit and pros
perity to which the climate and other
natural resources entitle them.

Speaking of the Senate—bat the
subject make* oa weary.
Ths country will be all right—in
the sweet bye and bye,
and oat,
The spores (seed of tho smut) attach
themselves to the kernels of wheat or
oats and are sown with them. When
the grain germinates the smut spores
also germinate and enter the young
plants, growing and subsisting on tbe
inside of the plant, until, when the head
appears, it is smut instead of wheat or
oats.
To kill the spores wo recommend tho
Jansen or hot water treatment, which
has been thus given :
The farmer may use his ingenuity in
regard to the treating of his wheat and
oats, and use whatever conveniences he
has at hand—anyway so that he accom
plishes the desired result.
One way we find convenient is to have
a kettle in which to beat the water quite
hot, say 165 degrees.
Near this kettle place a barrel in
which to trent the seed. Fill this barrel
about one-half full of hot water from
tho kettle and then by adding either hot
cold water, the temperature of the
water in the barrel may be kept at the
desired height.
It will be found very convenient to
have the barrel in which the seed is to
be treated sunk into the ground so that
the top is only a foot or so above the
surface.
Into this barrel dip the seed.
The dipping is easily done by plaoing
about a-bushel of seed into a coarse gun
ny sack, and fasten this sack to one end
of a long pole used as a lever hung across'
A notched post.
The seed should be kept moving all the
time while in the hot water and by using
the pole this is easily done.
Oats may be treated just before sow-
Af ter talking them out of the barrel of
hot water it is best to throw cold water
over them to cool them off, and then let
them stand and drain two or three hours
after which they may be sown broad
cast.
Wheat dries much more readily,
spread out immediately after treating
and left to dry ft few hours, it can then
be sown broadcast or in a force feed
drill.
As the grams will be considerably
swollen after their treatment it Is well
to regulate the drill to feed from one to
two pecks more per acre than with dry
seed,
It will be readily seen that this meth
od is in the reach of every farmer,
Atl that is required is one kettle, one
or two barrels, and a coarse sack.
Two men in one day can treat enough
oata to sow 20 aerts or enough wheat to
sow 40 acres.
One caution to be observed is that of
using no bogs or dishes for treated seed
that have been used for the untreated
seed, unless they have first
The Water should be at 135
when the wheat or oats are piit fn.
low the grain to remain in the
five , minutes and keejp the tem]
above 180 degrees. Keep the
ing all the time it is in the
means of the pole to insure
treatment of all the seed.
Aim to keep the temperature as nearly
184 degrees as possible. When the seed
is first put in the temperature of the
water will fall rapidly but by adding
hot water it Can be raised quickly to 184
ROADS.

try, and we would be glad to hear from

ABOUT TOBACCO.
1. At what height should tobacco be
topped?
2. Is there any way to hasten its ma
turity? If so how?
8. Should the sun ever be allowed to
shine on tobacco after it is cut?
G. W. S. f Stueville.
1. Topping does not depend on the height
of the tobacco as this will vary greatly
with variety and soil, but should be done
when there is enough “button” to get
hold of.
2. Priming,topping and snekering should
not be done during a rain or When the
plant is covered with dew, for rust inva
riably results.
8. A hot sunlight in the middle of the
day will burn the leaves, therefore the
plant should not be left in the field be
tween 10:30 a. m. and 2:30 p.m., for be
fore or after those hours the sun is very
hot.
RUST IN COTTON.
To what is rust due?
Common rust is due to the absence of
potash in the soil and an additional
amount of this element of plant food
should be used. For land subject to
mosaic or common rust the fertilizer
