TRUSTS IN CONGRESS.
The Republicans in Congress will
t v n be put to the test whether they
will follow Mr. lilaine in the avowal
that trusts are private affairs with
which the public has no right to inter
fere, or will ileal with them as a grow
ing abuse that threatens vast mischief
to the community. Not fewer than
six ant:-trust bills were brought for
ward in the House recently.
Five of them were introduced by

It is to he regretted that the Uni
versity has no Chancellor for the
present, yet its affairs are being con
ducted by I>r. L H. .Charhonnier,
who from experience and ability will
:sot allow it to puffer during the inter
regnum.
Aside from this, the University is
in better condition, and has a brighter
promise of a successful future, than
ever before.
With the agricultural experimental
•ration a number of new chairs have
been established and the science of
igrieulture, which is the basis of the
wealth of Georgia, will, ir. the future,
be one of the leading features of the

sympathy
think there is no necessity for litiga
tion. We know the road does not
wish to enter into any suit against
the city; it feels most kindly towards
us, and while, of course, working first
for the interests of the road itself, the
management is satisfied that its road
will be of great advantage to Athens
One thing is certain, if the road
comes no nearer than Watkinsville it
will do Athens vast injury. Macon
and Madison will flood that country
with goods and draw their custom to
their markets.
As to the position we have tuken in
this matter we have simply this to say :
It is our duty to find out and publish
everything of news, and more espe
cially such as pertains to the welfare
this summer, his audiences numbering
ten and fifteen thousand people. The
subject of his sermon lx re to-day was
“Great Results May Dej>end on Small
Events.” Dr. TnImage took for his text:
‘•Through a window, in a basket, was I
let down by the walL” II Cor. ii, 33.
He said:
Damascus is a city of white and glisten
ing architecture sometimes called “the
eye of the east,** sometimes called “a
pearl surrounded by emeralds.” at one
time distinguished for swords of tire
beet material called Damascus blades,
and upholstery of richest fabric called
damasks. A horseman by tho name of
Paul, riding toward this city, had been
thrown from the saddle. The horse had
drop|>ed under a Hash from the sky,
which at the same time was so bright it
bliuded the rider for many days, and I
think no permanently injured his eye-
of Athens. We have therefore sought sight that this defect of vision became

to digni'y farming as a profession.
When science, not a crude experience,
. ontrols the methods of the agri
culturist, farming will naturally assume
its proper place among the learned
professions.
In professors, in apparatus, iu ex
perimentation, in curriculum, the Uni
versity of Georgia has made a decided

degree than for years, educatioual ad
vantages superior to any college in
the Gulf States. We predict a suc-

to Athens, and as such we treated it.
Whether or not the road will be di

tend to know—simply give what Col.
Machen, the mansger and director of
the affairs of the road says. What he
told us, and we published, was con
firmed by Mrs. Gould in casual con
versation at the barbecue at Watkins
ville. She said that Mr. Drown was
very much annoyed by the apparent
op]K>sition to the road on the part of
Athens, and was in favor of diverting
it towards Klberton. She added that
she sympathized with Athens, and be
lieved the city would do all it could—
that she had used her influence with
Mr. Drown to induce him not to order
the road changed from Athens. She,
however, discussed the matter of a
digression toward Elberton as a very
decided probability, :us did also Maj.

putting the duties high enough all
s cotton miglit be manufactured
at home. But, in the meantime, to
hat would other people be driven by
this system of exclusiveness? They
would be compelled to obtain their
supplies of cotton wherever it could*
be profitably cultivated, and its pro
duction in this country would vastly
decline.
If all the domestic cotton could be
made up at borne, what of the immense
quantities of wheat, corn, beef, pork,
butter, cheese, petroleum and other
j rod nets that are sent abroad? The
country would wait a long time until
i he “Home Market” could absorb
these surplus products. Meanwhile,
many thousands of workingmen, who
are earning comfortable livings in sup
plying foreign markets, would be
driven to starvation. But if the jnil-
lunnial “Home Market” could be at
tained by the operation of tariff laws,
and should absorb all the domestic
products, what would the country send
abroad in exchange for the needed
supplies of tea, coffee, chinchona bark,
indigo, guano, hides, wool, raw silk,
jute, tin. fish, spices, mahogany, and
many other articles that are not pro
duced at home? Would it not, then,
be necessary to buy these foreign
commodities with the gold and silver
of California? According to Protec
tionist theories, such a drain of the
precious metals would be quite as dis
astrous as free trade itself.
To all but the dreamers of the high
tariff school the home market, is as
unreal as Tom T lder’s Ground. It
lias never been partially attained on
this earth except in China. The Chi
nese sy* tern conld be realized in this
country only by a violent arrest of its
levelopment, moral and social stagna
tion a reversion to barbarism, and the
«.y>u»niutic degredation of untold mil
lions fsf men. Of all the humbugs
and delusion* of the tariff-mongers
the “Home Market” is the most pre
posterous.—Philadelphia Record.
THIS MUCH OF GOOD
The bagging ‘‘trust” has caused
give/ disturbance in business—the
merchants have liought lightly and
reluctantly, knowing that it will lx*
hard to explain to the farmer why they
charge him 111 cents today for the
very same article that was thought for
7£ cents twelve months ago. The ar
ticle is. however, in the hands of the
mighty^ “trust," and the mercantile
world is as powerless as individuals to
find any remedy. The money kings
are in the aeceudnnt, and the poor
cotton planter is forced to stand still
and allow himself to be fleeced.
With honest prices for the goods
he buys, and the hardest work on the
part of the planter, it is all he can do
to make a fair profit on his capital
ami labor, and when “trust” price©
wring from him a large share of his
gear’s earning- he naturally feels de
pressed and outraged. Bagging must
be had, nevertheless, and it is the
part of men to hear the burden with
out a murmur, but at the same time
form the resolution that posterity, if
not the present generation, will he
freed from this awful tvrany of the
S urse. The qiatter is now brought
omo to tho people, they feel the aw
ful power of combined capital, they
recognize the fact that something
must be done to crush out “trusts” or
else 1k> crushed to financial ruin them
selves. The ill wind has this much of
good—to create a firm resolve in the
minds of cotton planters to insist on
their representatives in Congress mak-
ng a war to the death on “trusts”
snd the high protective system which
is the great lather of “trusts. ’
A JOINT STOCK BANK-
Every business man in Athens ap-
ireciates our need of more banking
apital. Our trade is every day ex
panding and with it the demand for
money increases.
A city is necessarily limited by her
banking facilities. Money attracts
both men and traftt*. Some time ago
a slight effort was made to establish a
bank by joint stock. If the right
men take the matter in hand today
there is no question of their getting
up sufficient capital to open a bank.
Many capitalists, every business man
and many working people would take
stock, as it would not only pay a divi
dend on the investment, but be of
great Wnefit to all classes of business.
A field is here open to some enter
prising and competent men of affairs.
much less real public spirit here
than it would he gratifying to see.
For instance, there are any number
of enterprises of one sort and'another
which could be started in Athens and
which would pay handsomely and give
employment to numbers of our labor
ing people if our monied men would
only furnish the capital. They could
find competent men anxious to take
charge of such enterprises whose skill
of hand and experience in business is
now cramped for the want of means.
To insare good and energetic manage
ment these men could !»e given a cer
tain interest in the net proceeds of
the enterprise, and in a few years
many men now working on a salary
would l*e sole proprietors of e it»r-
priscs jn which they began only as
workers.
B)*caks of. lie started from Damascus
to butcher Christians, but after tliat hard
fall from bis horse he was a changed
man and preached Christ iu Damascus
till tlie city was shaken to its foundation.
The mayor gives authority for his ar
rest. and the i»npular cry is “Kill him!
Kill him!” The city is surrouuded hv a
high wall, anti the gates are watched by
the police lest the Cilician preacher
escape. Many of the houses are built on
the wall, and’ their balconies projected
clear over and hovered above the gardens
outside. It was customary to lower
baskets out of these balconies and pull up
fruits and flowers from the gardens. To
this day visitors at the monastery of
Mount Sinai are lifted and let down in
baskets. Detectives prowled around from
house to house looking for Paul, but his
friends hid him now in one place, now in
another. He is no coward, as fifty inch
cents in his life demonstrate. But he
feels his work is not done yet, and so he
evades assassination. “Is that preacher
here?” tho foaming mob shout at one
house door. “Is that fanatic hero?” the
police shout at another house • door.
Sometimes on tho street incognito lie
j lasses through a cloud of clenched fists,
and sometimes he «ecretes himself on the
housetop. At last the infuriate ]iopu-
lace get on sure track of him. They
have positive evidence that he is in the
house of one of the Christians, the bal
cony of whoee home reaches over the
wall. “Here he is! IL-re he is!” The
vociferation and blasphemy and howl
ing of tho pursuers are at the front
door. They hr»*ak in. “Fetch out
tliat Gosspelizer, and let us hang his head
on tlie city gate. Where is her* The
emergency was terrible. Providentially
thcro was a good stout Isisket in the
house. Paul’s friends fasten a rope to
the basket. Paul stejM into it. The
basket is lifted to the edge of the balcony
pn tho wall, and then while Paul holds
on to tho rppe with both hands his
friends lower away, carefully and cau
tiously, slowly hut surely, further down
and further down, until the basket
strikes the earth and the apostle steps
out. and afoot and alone starts on tliat
famous missionary tour, tho story of
which has astonished earth and heaven.
Appropriate entry in Paul's diary of
travels: “Through a window, in a bas
ket. was I let down by the wall.”
Observe, first, on what a slender tenure
great results hang. The ro]*emaker who
twirtod that cord fastened to that lower
ing basket never knew how much would
tkqxmd on the strength of it. How if it
had beep broken and the apostle's life had
been dashed Wt? What would have be

The reluticns between France and

every day, and with the backing of

THE CAMPAIGN IN THE WEST-
Chairman Brice, of the Democratic
campaign committee, will make a tour
of the West in the interest* of the
party. This is an eminently wise
move, and with the pro]>er manage
ment, will result in material benefit to
the Democracy. There is every rea
son why the West should go Demo
cratic almost to a unit! Some of the
strongest men in the party are from
that section, and they are going to
make an rggressive campaign for
Cleveland.
The West, as an agricultural sec
tion, is deeply interested in a reduc
tion of the tariff. That section, with
tho South, has to pay the tribute
money, exacted by^he tariff and be
stowed on Eastern monopolists.
As Mr. Bynum, of Indiana, said re
cently in a sj»eech in Atlanta, his section
was Wing fleeced by Eastern money
kings. It reminded him, he said, of
an old cow—with her head to the West
and her tail to the East—the West
was feeding her with the produce
fronf her fertile acres, while tne East
was milking hex dry. The same il
lustration applies with equal force to
the South. As Mr. Bynum suggested,
the two sections should join hands
and turn the old cow around for
awhile.
The Cleveland Plain Dealer says :
“The lfemocratic soldiers of In
diana outnumber the Republican sol
diers, and Matson is sure of an elec*

President in Indiana as easily in 1888
as he was beaten for Governor hv old

An English ship stopped at Pitcairn
Island, and right in the 'midst of sur
rounding cannibalism and squalor, the
passengers discovered a Christian colony
of churches aud school* and beautiful
homes and highest style »f religion and
civilization. For fiity years no mission
ary mid no Christian influence had landed
there. Why this oasis of light amid a
desert of lieathendom? Sixty years be
fore a ship had met disaster, and one of
the sailors, unable to save anything else,
went to bis trunk and took out a Bible
which his mother liad placed there, and
swam aid»ore, the Bible held in his teeth.
The book was read on all sides until the
rough and vicious population were
evangelized, and a church was
started, and an enlightened common
wealth established, and the world's his

much importance whether the sailor

or let it fall in the breakers, but upon
what small ciicu instances depended
what mighty results!

The sons of rich bankers and mer

luxury from the parental table for eight
years. The otlier children were more
scantily appareled. The son at college

And there also were some delicacies
from tho sister's hand for the voracious
appetite of a hungry student. Tho father
swung the heavy cradle through tlie
wheat, the sweat rolling from ids chin
bedewing every step of the wav, and then
sitting tlown under tlie cherry tree at
noon thinking to hiuis.lf; “I tun fear
fully tired, but it will pay if I can once
sec that hoy through college, aud if lean
know- that he will he preaching the
Gospel after I am dead.” The younger
children want to know why they can’t
havo this and that as others do, and the
mother says; “Be patient, my children,
until your brother graduates, and then
you shall liave more luxuries, but we
must see that boy through.”
Tlie years go by and the son lias been
ordained and is preaching the glorious
Gospel, and a great revival conics, aud
souls by scores and hundreds accept the
Gospel from the Ups of that young
preacher, and father and mother, quite
old now, are visiting the son at the vil
lage parsonage^ and at the close of a
Sabbath of mighty blessing father and
mother retire to their room, the son
lighting tlie way and asking them if he
could do anything to make them more
comfortable, saying if they want any
thing in the night just to knock on tho
svall. And then pll alone father and
mother talk over the gracious influences
of theday and say: “Well, it was worth
ail we went through to educate that boy.
It was a hard pull, hut wc held on till
the work was done. Tho world may
not know it, but, mother, we held tho
rope, didn't wet’’ And tlie voice, trem
ulous with joyful emotion, responds:
“Yes, father; we held the rope. I feel
my work is done. Now, Lord, lettest
thou thy servant depart in peace, for
mine eyes have seen thy salvation.”
“Pshaw-1” says the father, “I never felt
so much like living in my life as now. I
want to see what that fellow is going on
to do, he has begun so well/'
Something occurs to me quite personal.
I was the youngest of a large family of
children. My parents were neither rich
nor poor; four of the sons wanted col
legiate education, and four obtained it,
but not without great home struggle.
We never heard ttvo old people say once
that they were denying themselves to
effect this, but I remember now that my
parents always looked tired. I don't
think that they ever got rested until they
lay down in tlie 8ommervi!le cemetery.
Mother would sit down in the evening,
and say: “Well, I don't known wiiat
makes me feel so tired!'' Father would
fall Immediately to sleep, seated
by tho evening stand, overcome with
the days's fn‘ ues. One of the four
hrothers. after preaching the Gospel for
about fifty years, entered upon his
heavenly rest. Another of the four is
now on the otlier side the earth, a mis
sionary of the cross. Two of us are in
this land in tlie holy ministry, and I
think all of us are willing to ackrowl
edge our obligation to the old folks at
home. About twenty-two years ago the
one, and about twenty-four years ago
the pther, put down the burdens pf this
life, but they still bold the tape.
O men end women here assembled,
you brag sometimes how you hare fought
your way In (he world, hit I think there
have been bejgful- influences that you
have never fully acknowledged, lias
there not been some influence in your
early or present home that the world
cannot Beet Does there not reach to you
from among the Canadian hills, or west
ern prairie, or from southern plantation,
or from English or Scottish or Irish home
a cord of Influence that has kept you
right when you would have gone astray,
and which, after you had' made a
crooked track, recalled youf Tlie rope
may bo as long as thirty years, or
five hundred miles long, or three
thousand miles long, hut hands that
want out of mortal sight long ago still
hold tlie rope. You want a very swift
horse, and you need to rowel him with
sliarfieet spurs, and to let the reins lie
loose upon the neok. and to give a shout
to a racer, if you are going to ride out of
reach of your mother’s prayers. Why,
a ship creasing the Atlantic in seven
days can't sail away from tliat! A sailor
finds them on the lookout as he takes his
place, and finds them on the most as he
climbs the ratlines to disentangle a rope
in the tempest, fod finds them swing
ing on the hammock when he turns in.
wily not be frank aed acknowledge it—
the most of us would long ago have been
dashed to pieces had cot gracious and
loving hands steadily and lovingly and
mightily held the toff. '
But there vnust Some a time when we
shall find oat who these Damascene were
who lowered Paul in the basket, and
greet them and alt those who have ren
dered to God and the world unrecognized
and unrecorded aerviow. That is going
to be one of the glad excitements of
heaven—the bunting op and picking out
of those who did good on earth and got no
credit for it. Hem the church has been
going on nineteen centuries, and this is
probably the first sermon ever recogniz
ing the services of the people in that
Damascus balcony. Charles G. Finncv
said to a dying Christian: “Give mxjhv'e
to St. Paul when yen meet him.’* mien
you and I meet him, sh we will, I shall
ask him to introduce mo to Hmu people
who got him out at the nsm.w^. peril
We go into long sermon to prove tliat
we will be able to recognise people in
heaven, when there ie coe reason we fail
to present, and that is better than all-
God will introduce us. We shall have
them ail pointed out. You would not be
guilty of the impoliteness of having
friends in your parlor not introduced,
and celestial politeness will demand that
we he made acquainted with all the
heavenly household. What rehearsal of
old times and recital of stirring reminis
cences. it others fail to give in
troduction. God will take us through,
and before our first twenty-four
honra fat heaven—If it were cal-
sr
.tics than in
mortal 'state we met with
earthly celebrities. Many who made
great noise of utefulneas will sit ou the
last seat by the front door of the heavenly
temple, while right up within arm's
rmeh of the heavenly throne wfll be
tnany who. though they could not preach
themselves or do rrvat exploits for God,
nevertheless held the rope.
Come, let us go right up and accost
those on this cirols of heavenly thrones.

who preached Christ was hounded from

for his life, and a basket was let down
over the wall with the maltreated man in
it, and I was ohe who hel^ied hold the
rope.” And I said: “Is that a’l?” and
he answered. “That is all.” Arid while
I was lost in amazement. I heard a
strong voice tliat sounded as though it
might once liave been hoarse from
many exposures and triumphant
as though it might liave be

said: “Not many mighty, not many no

despised hath God chosen, yea, and
things which are not to bring to naught

to see from whom* the voice came, and
lo! it was the very one who had said:

Another greatly superior qu -lity possessed by the
Royal Baking Powder is tliat by which the preservation of
important elements of the- flour is effected in raising the
bread by the mechanical operation of th© gas, without fer
mentation. »
Yeast, and all baking powders that produce the leaven
ing gas by fermentation, as is well known, destroy a por
tion of the nutritive elements of the flour, and particularly
those which are the most healthful and the greatest aids to
a perfect assimilation of the food.
The Royal Baking Powder, while perfectly leavening,
retains without change or impairment all those elements
which were intended by nature, when combined in our
bread, to make it literally the “ staff of life.”
No leavening agent or baking powder, except the Royal
Baking Powder, possesses these great qualifications.

THE PRESIDENT’S KECENT MES3A G *•
President Cleveland gave furthu:*
evidence of his broad statesmanship
and his uncam promising defense of
American interests in his recent mes
sage to Congress on the rejection of
the fisheries treaty by a partisan Sen
ate. He states in that message that
the proposed treaty would have met
all emergencies arising in the rela
tions between the United States and
Cuuada; but as that treaty was de
feated he feels that something should
be done to protect American fisher
men.
By the treaty of 1871, which was
limitedMn its duration to 15 years,
free transit was allowed goods, wares
&c., entering at a port of either coun
try and destined for either Canada or
the United States. This treaty ter
minated by limitation in 1880, and
the two countries were thrown hack
on a very ambiguous treaty of 1818.
Since 1880 the Canadian government
vestised Druggist a bottle of Dr. King’s has denied free transport itiou of
Sew Discovery for Consumption. It is g.MKU- to our eitizens and thus on-
tailed great loss, especially
fishermen. In the meantime $J70,
000,000 vorth of goods, most of them
dutiable, have been imported by Can
adians and carried across American
soil.
In bis message the President refers
to the act of Congress of ? 87, which
restricted such importation of Cana
dian goods in case American fisher
men wore not allowed similar privile
ges. He cites the fact of our fisher
men having been put to very serious
inconveniences, of seizures of their
vessels, &c., and recommends to Con
gress the adoption of retaliatory
measures.
