POLITICAL REVOLUTIONS.
The Savannah Morning News pre
dicts some interesting changes on
the political surface of Georgia with
in the next few years, and wants
\ South Georgia to begin now to groom
soinp political leaders. Says the
News :
Gov. Northern will be a candidate
for re-election. Mr. Pat Calhoun’s
friends contemplate putting him in
the field, too, it the conditions are
favorable. Mr. Calhoun and Mr.
Watson are looking forward to the
senatorship when Mr. Colquitt’s term
expires. Senator Colquitt’s days
have almost passed. Joe Brown has
surrended the political sceptre. Gen.
Gordon cannot be with us but a few
years more at the most. With the
passing of this great triumvirate,
new men will take their places. But
those who do go to the front must
fight hard for the prize. In the new
order of things which is coming, Sa
vannah should have a hand. PoliW
ical coalitions are natural and ne«
cessary. It will be South Georgia’s
fault, if at the proper moment, she
does not presents man who can com*
mand the respect and co-operation
of the leaders in Middle and No(th
Georgia.
CRYING AT FUNERALS.
What in the world is getting into
the mind of Editor Moore, of the
Crawfordville Democrat ? To judge
from an editorial in a recent issue of
that paper one would, without know
ing the genial editor, suppose him to
be a miserable misanthrope and
cynic. He has turned bis mind unto
the deceits of human kind, and in
the following fashion charges insin
cerity to man even in the bitter
pangs of grief that come at the brink
of the grave of a departed relative
He writes : ■
I
Crying at funerals, or pretending
to do so by apparently swabbing the
eyes with white handkerchiefs, for
merly considered an essential part of
the etiquette of fashionable funerals,
is to be done away with. It is no
longer deemed indispensable to indi
cate to the world that what Hamlet
calls “the fruitful river of the eye” is
in a stage of freshet by hoisting the
white flag of affliction at. a burial.
Nothing can be more fallacious than
the outward symbols of grief. Neith*
er “inky suits,” nor clouds of crepe,
nor an overflow of salt water, nor
“the dejected behsyior of the visage,’
are to be trusted as signs of uncon-
solability, especially if the departed
has been thoughtful enough to leave
a handsome legacy to the sable clad
and lachrymose mourner. In such a
case a Niobe might, without injus
tice, be suspected of dissimulation.
It is common to weep without much
suffering, and equally common to
1 suffer keenly without shedding tears.
There are human crocodiles who
could pour forth eye water enough
swim in without experiencing a sin
gle pang.
Oh,- horrors ! Would the writer
laugh in faithless rebuke ’at tears
that flow upon the fresh sod Of an
open grave ? The . pang of death
certainly should not be ridieuldd. If
there is one place where sorrow ought
to claim pity, where tears ought to
be pardoned in the light of human
sympathy, where grief ought to be
solemn, surely that spot is over the
bier of a departed loved one. Has it
come to this that Editor Moore has
grown faithless of human kind, or is
be joking about this grave matter ?
remain. The Farmer’s Alliance of
Georgia is a democratic organization
and it will bo a cold raw day, indeed }
when the honest farmers of the Em
pire State of the South |forsake the
banner of the democracy to muster
with the radicals in republicanism
of the mildest sort.
The agitators of the third party
need feel no hope for Georgia in
their movement. Georgia is popu
lated by independent, free-thinking
men. The Affiance of Georgia is
made up of a different element than
the Alliance of the Western States,
and^these third party men will find
in the very beginning that the-Alli
ance votes of Georgia will be thrown
with democratic votes in ’92 to bring
about the downfall of republicanism
—the curse of the nation.
Away with the third party mtjve 0

AWAY WITH THE THIRD PARTY.
Long before now it is apparent to
even the most careless observer that
the South wants none of the West’s
third party.
The recent indications given out
in Mississippi have shown to the po-
t litical world that the Alliance of that
State is an alliance of democrats and
that the solid democracy of the South
is safe in their hands, so far as they
have power to preserve it so. This
action on the part 1 of the democrats
of that State, serves to show .that
they are not yet ready to “blot out
the star that glitters to the name of
Mississippi and leave a'etyipe be
hind, a fit emblem of her dishonor. *
. /1 Virginia, too, is still the grand old
Commonwealth that she has . ever
beeuj and the late meeting of farmers
in that State denounces in no mis
taken tone the third party movement.
This is natural enough, since Vir-
■ giniaiBthe birp-place of the dem
ocracy, the mother of the nation’s
1 ;
greatest statesmen. vPwWLfe
It seems that every other South
ern State Alliance is much inclined
to follow in ' the footsteps of these
Slates. It can be put down as a
foregone conclusion that Georgia
will take no stock in the third party
movement. Georgia, too, is a State
that belongs to the democracy of the
$olid South and such she intends to
TOM WATSSN AGAIN-
The Banner has on occasions be
fore this, in the light of certain cir
cumstances, stood up to remark that
the thermometer must indicate a low
mark in midsummer when Tom Wat
son failed to stir up a bigger sensa
tion in the political world than any
other man to his inches. And. in
the light of 1 later circumstances The
Banner deesn’t feel called upon to
modify the statement in the slightest
The very latest sensation in which
Mr. Watson figures is perhaps the
most glaring of his life. Reports
come that Mr. IV atsou who was re>
cently elected to congress from the
tenth district, has sold many of his
law books and burned the rest, de
claring wildly that be will not follow
a profession that is rnimicnl to the
farmers. He aspires'to be' a leader
in the ranks of the Alliance.
Mr. Watson is a shrewd fellow, a
brilliant orator, a.good lawyer, and
has proved himself to be a homing
man in Georgia politics. But Mr.
Watson, it seems to us has shown
bis hand in this little game, and the
danger is made clear that the fann
ers of Georgia may doub;t the sin
cerity of Mr. Watson’s actions. Any
reasonable man can easily fancy that
Mr. Watson is seeking political hon
ors. The report is already out and
so far as we know is undenied by
Mr. Watson, that he is going to run
for the Senate against Senator Col
quitt. If this-be true, we think Mr.
Watson has proceeded most unfor
tunately in this rash proceeding.
But, we have no desire to do Mr.
Watson any injustice, and await
with much concern to see how he is
going to conduct his political course
iu the future.

The Tribune-of-Rome is much in
clined to charge up something to the
Military advisory board, It says:
Quartermaster General West say6
that $22,771.35 was all that was turned
over to him by the Advisory Board.
The balance of the $25,000 was spent by
the Advisory Board in visiting sites and
“otherwise.”
Now the Tribune would like to know
what “otherwise” means. Borne paid
the expenses of the hoard from Atlanta
to Home and return. Chickamauga
furnished the board a special train free,
and the Tribune learns that “otherwise”
was also free. We think' that is what
ails Hannah—too much—“otherwise.”
The Tribune-of-Rome says: Tom
Watson has about concluded that he is
too nice a man to be a lawyer. Look
out, Tqmmy lest the Alliance decide
that you are too small a man to be Gov
ernor. Strange things have happened
in heaven and earth than'were ever
dreamed of in thy philosophy, Haratio.

Ryan,—Even the most conservative

Crops are behind.
Every farmer who comes to Athens
says so, and the seasons since planting
time corroborates the statement.
The cotton crops are far behind and
the upland corn is equally so.
There is a more favorable report
however from the weather bureau
in Washington' this week than has
come from there for some time.
This report comes to the Banner as
follows:
The *eek ending July 10, has been
cooler than usual in all agricultural
districts within the limits of the United
States, except in the Rio de Grande val
ley on the coast of Southern California,
where a normal temperature has pre
vailed. The Atlantic Coast daily tem
perature was from three to six degrees
below normal. The season temperature
continues slightly in excess in the
northern states east of the Rooky moun
tains, while there is a slight deficiency
in the Gulf states, and thence westward
to the Pacific Coast a deficiency general
ly, amounting to less than one degree
per day. •
The rain fall during the past week

early planted corn crops, rain has been
badly distributed.
North Carolina: Rain Wednesday

heavy in some places was generally
beneficial; later part of the week much
too cool, retarding growth; cotton
blooming freely; the crops are gener

Texas: Heavy rain along east coast
and good showers over. East Texas;
cotton continues very promising and
picking commenced in southwest Tex

very fair condition. Most too much
rain for cotton in some sections,
Virginia: General rains above nor

crops, but have retarded harvesting of
grains and grass. There was very gen

was injurious to late corn, but average
sunshine proved beneficial.
South Carolina: Weather greatly
beneficial: cotton crop much improved

An Interesting Way to Multiply by
Casting out 9'o.
An expert mathematician bands the
Banner the following interesting proof
iu multiplying by casting ont the 9’s.
Try it.
Add the figures of the multiplicand,
divide by 9, note the remainder, also
add the figures of the multiplier, di
vide by 9, note the remainder, multiply
these two remainders and again divide
by 9, note this remainder. Add the
figures of the product and divide by 9.
Now if the remainder of the latter is the
same as that of the two remainders
after dividing their product by 9, the
answer is correct, otherwise it is not.
Example, multiply 675 by 589, the
product is 395808, now the
sum of the figures 6, 7 and 2 is 15 which
divided by 9, gives 6 remainder, the
sum of 5, 8 and 9 is 13, leaving out the
nine, (because we cast it out) dividing
^3 by nine the remainder is 4, which
multiplied by 6 the other remainder,
gives 24, this divided by 9, gives 6 re
mainder. We then add the figures of
the product, 395,208‘ which is 24, leav
ing off the 9 as before said, this divi
ded by 9 leaves 5 remainder, which is
the sum as the remainder above num
ber 6, showing that 395,808 is the cor
rect product of 672 and 589. Now take
another example, 390 multiplied by 396.
The true product of those numbers is
154,440, but let us say it is 155,440.
Then try it by the above method, and it
will be fonnd that the remainders will
not be the same.
In the same way division may be
proved, by remembering that the divi
sor corresponds to the multiplicand,
the quotient to the multiplier, and the
dividend to the product.
By the above, anyone ready in figures
may easily and a lmost in
a moment, dettect an er
ror in multiplication and division.
PASS HIM AROUND.
The house opened this morning with
nearly all the representatives in their
seats, and proceeded immediately to
business, beginning with the introduc
tion of new matter not yet brought up.
A circular was distributed upon the
desks of airthe members, signed Robert
L. Berner, and requesting each member
to give the number of wholesale and
retail dealers, manufactories of all
kinds, Banks and corporations in his
county. Mr. Berner said to day.
“The object of the circular is to get
the number of all the business
manufactures'and sale of cigarettes, cig
arette tobacco or materials, or any sub
stitute to evade the law, within the
states, and to provide a penalty for vio
lation of same. Mr. Sinquefield said to
day in regard to the bill: __
“I know that the cigarette is an evil
not from expeiieuce but from observa
tion. I have seen and had experience
with victims of the habit, and 1> know
that once acquired, it cannot easily be
dropped. It is like the morphine habit
and there is more danger in it than in
drinking whisky. I talked to many
members of the House and some in the
Senate, and all I have seeo so
far are in 1 favor of the
manufactories, and corporations in the
state, so as to know how to levy the
tax, as prescribed in the special tax bill
introduced by thyself last week. The
object of this tax is to get sufficient
funds to pension the widows of the con
federate veterans of the state, who are
entitled to these pensions. The $60,000
appropriated has been found totally in
sufficient, and it will be neccessary to
appropriate for the purpose, about $450,-
000 or $500,000.
t AGAINST THE CIGARETTE.
The cigarette has been the subject of
some state legislation in the House to
day. Mr. Sinquifield, of Washington
introduced a short but
sweeping bill to prevent the
sale, aud thinks that, if passed, it will
make a good law. The bill is not in
tended as ill to anyone, but introduced
iu a spirit of good will to ail my fellow
citizens.”
TO BK-APPOBTION THE DISTRICTS.
The census ol 1893 makes some im
par taut changes iu the population of the
sontorial districts us they now stand
and it has become necessary to make
some changes in order to conform as
nearly as possible to the last census l
Mr. Fleming of Augusta, has introduced
a hill to so change the senatorial districts
as to conform to this census. The pop
ulaticn requisite for one Senator is
41,690 as there are 44* districts. “The
division is somewhat unequal,” said
Mr. Fleming to-day, “and I will be
glad to have any corrections from the
committee before which the bill will go
Chatam, Bibb, Fulton and Richmond
counties each have an excess of popula
tion required, and under the'new ap
portioumeut each of these counties wifi
have a senator of its own. The other
counties are divided iuto districts as
nearly as possible in accordance with
the required population.”
THE JOINT SESSION.
At twelve o’clock pursuant to the
following resolution the House and
Senate met in joint session.
Resolved by the Senate, the House
concurring, that the General Assemb
ly convene in joint session at 12 m. for
the purpose of electing a judge for the
Southeastern circuit to fill the place
made vacant by the resignation of
Judge Allen Fort.
Hon. W. H - Fish, of Macon county,
was placed in nomination by Mr. Cutts,
of Sumter, and the nomination was
seconded by the Senators from the 12th,
16.h and 22nd, and the Representatives
from Newton and Appling. The roll
was called and , Mr. Fish re
ceived the total vote and was
elected judge of the southeestern
circuit. The joint session then dis
solved.

THE PROHIBITION CLUB.
A Permanent Organization Formed
Yesterday to Fight Blind Tigers.
Pursuant to a oali of Mr. George C.
Thomas, chairman of the executive
committee of the Prohibition Club of
Clarke county, there assembled on last
evening in the Good Templar’s hall, a
number of Athens’ best citizens.
Mr. David C. Barrow, who did such
good service in the late campaign for
prohibition, was called to the chair,and
Mr. Julian Gardner appointed Secre
tary.
The chairman stated that the meeting
had been called to take into considera
tion the question of a permanent organ
ization.
The statement -was received with ap
plause, and it was enthusiastically re
solved ^hat «a permanent org&uization
should be perfected.
Resolved further, That a meeting lx
called for next Friday, the 17th, inst..
and that all Prohibitionists and all oth
ers interested in the suppression of the
illegal traffic in liq-ior, be invited to at
tend.
A committee consisting of Mr. George
C. Thomas, charman. Mr. George E
Stone, and Mr. E. I Smith, were ap
pointed to draft a Constitution and by
laws for the Club.
They will report at the Templar’s
hall promptly at six o’clock, and then
the organization will be perfected.
It is urged that not only all of the
Prohibiionists be present, but every
man in Athens who is opposed to the
illegal sale of liquor.

San Francisco, July 18.—The Exam
iner announces the discovery of enor
mous caverns in Josephine county, Ore-
g m, about twelve miles north of the
California line, and about forty miles
from the coast.
The Examiner’s exploring party which
visited the caverns reached them by way
of Grant’s Pass, Oregon, on the line of
the Oregon and California branch of the
Southern Pacific. From there the party
taveled thirty miles by stage to Kerby,
and then proceeded into the mountains
with pack trains and horses. Two
openings in the cave were discovered.
The openings look like small fissures
in a great limestone bluff.
The limestone extends for mile?
and appears massive and solid outside,
but is honeycombed within with cracks
and crevasses which extend for miles
without any apparent order or system.
Many of the passages within the cave
are described as of great beauty, con
taining in them semi-transparent stal-
actics, giant, milk-white, pillars, pools
and streams of pure clear water.
A creek flows from the main opening
to the cave, and it was here the party
entered. They spent a week in exploring
the cave and fonnd innumerable pass
ages and chambers, and several' miles
from the entrance they discovered a
amnll lake of dear water and water-fall
thirty feet in height. All kinds of
grotesque figures were found in the
various chambers. Large numbers of
flash light photographs were taken. '
The only sign of animal life was found
a short distance from the entrance,
vliere a few bones indicated that hears
had used it for a lair and earned their
nrey there. It was estimated that the
main body of the cave was 1,500 feet
from the surface of the mountain and
the cavern itself appeared to be fully as
l, .:ge as Mammoth Cave in Kentucky.

A RUSSIAN HEBREW
Surprises the Money Brokers at the
Barge Office.
New York, July 14.—Israel Pinkos,
a tall, handsome Russian. Hebrew, orig
inally from the neighborhood of Odessa,
taxed the resources of the money broker
at the barge office by offering him $17,-
000 in Russian currency to. change. Is
rael is well-to-do, is nearly 60 years old,
and dresses like a city-bred person. He
says that nearly half the steerage pas
sengers on the steamship Forst Bis
marck, on which he came from Ham
burg, were Russian refugees. He was
a grain merchant and accumulated about
$40,000 when he was ordered to leave
the country.
Once before, in 1882, he had received
a similar older, and, as he.was unable
to comply with it within the 24 hours
allotted to him, his property was confis
cated and ho had to begin work all Over
again. This time his house and his
clothing were searched by officials of
Odewa, who knew he was prosperous.
They did not find his money, as he ly<d
transferred' it to one ef his brothers.
They were searched one by one. The
money went from house to house and
finally came back intact to Israel. All
the family then left Russia. Israel says
he is going west to purchase laud and
that he will settle on it and send for his
brothers and their families.

sill, aud, grasping the frame with one
hand, held her infant by the foot with
the other hand, head downward. She
shonted that slie was going to kill her

frnn the window sill, she reached over
and took hold of the fire escape and
swung liersel: onto it. Mounting the

A WILD DANCE
The Pout anti the Law.
San Francisco, July 14.—Joaquin
Miller, "the p. et of the Sierras” is en
gaged in fighting a legal battle. Joaquin
sold a section of bis mountain home,
near Oakland, to O. C. Logan at the
rate of $1,000 an acre. The money was
i'moug the Bed Men at th
Kxrlh Reservation.
White Earth, Minn., July 14.—The
situation in the White Earth reserva
tion is so serious that it feared Gen
eral Merritt will have to send two or
three companies of the Third Regimen
to this place to prevent a riot aud possi
ble massacre. The Chippewas have
been in a state of open revolt for several
weeks. Recently a delegation of Leech
La«£e Indians came hero to confer, and
soon after their arrival joined in a wild
dance with the White Earth red men.
Iu - police became alurmedat the threat
ening outlook, and to stop the d»-i#i»
tore down the hall in which, the orgies
ot ihe savages were taking place.
lhe Indians were highly incensed
over the interference, and' have been
holding daily an<*r,iugs with a view to
getting even. The dissatisfaction of
the Julians has resulted from the tardi-
nes ■ of the Chippewa commission in the
ma ter of allotment of land and the
non-payment by she government of sev
ers 1 thousand dollars’ damages occa-
£ioi d by overflows in the construction
of he upper Missouri reservoirs. A
certain amount of cash per capita was
promised the Indians, and the govem-
mei ,’s intimation that it proposed to
sett.e the debt iu stock and agricultural
mjp.oments has so incensed them that
the are in a mood'to commit almost
am outrage. Chief White c loud is on
the ground trying to prevent an out-
brer c, although ho has written the in
tent department that his tribe will not
submit to the payment of anything ex
cept money for its ruined rice fields.
