IHE ATHENS BANNER: TUESDAY MORNING, NOVEMBER 10,1891 THE ELECTIONS’ LESSONS. If there is one lessen to be learned from the recent elections by Demo crats it is this : Nominate men who from an We have command the respect and confidence The consequences have been keenly been suffering very much enlargement of the spine, bad too much of a good thing, and every farmer in the South knows it of the masses and make tariff reform the chief issue. Of couxee it would have been haid to beat MoKinley in Ohio. Ohio has a conceded Republican majority of 20,000 and what Campbell did to wards breaking that solid Republi can phalanx is all that any Demo crat could have done. His defeat is almost a victory for this reason. But, it is clear that McKinley could have carried the Buckeye State by a much larger majority if his high tariff doctrines had not injured him among the farming classes. Tariff reform is the key to Demo cratic success and musVbe made the ohlef issue in the National campaign that is drawing nigh at hand. Ot course there are other issues which the Democratic party must tack on Its platform, and among them is the free coinage of silver. The farmers In the South and the West demand such a measure and the whole part} must harmonise on this demand. This can easily be done and a mea sore looking to a wholesome expan sion of the currency will certainly be log-rolled through the 52d congress But if the Democracy fails to makt tariff reform the main spring th< machine will clog and all will b« lost, the reins of the government falling again into the hands of th< Republicans. The Eastern Democracy shows up in these late elections with admira ble gains, and everybody knows thai the prime faotor in this glorious vie- toiy was tariff reform. Let the Na» tional Democracy take notice and dc likewise when the time comes to make a platform. felt. We are glad to know that a large acreage of small grain will be sown down in Oglethorpe, and we trust that a good rainy season will very soon come to give the farmers all over the South a chance to let the good work of planting go on. The farmers of Georgia are learning at last to live at home. They could not live in a better land than this and it is a sad eulogy upon onr fair and fer tile fields to nave onr farming people sending West for their bread and their meat.. Ever since the war this has been practiced in the South. It has been truly said: « We live to learn, yet eloxaly learn to live.” Let us hope the lesson has been learned at last, and bid the tillers of the soil ‘‘Godspeed” in their deter mination to plant a larger acreage of wheat and oats, and less cotton. opinion that these Georgia farmers wives are a very level-headed kind of matrons, and if they stick they may bring the r liege lords out ol the ruts. They are at least making commendable effort in tbat direc tion. SHEEP KILLING DOGS. The only way to prevent dogs from killing sheep when they once corn tract the habit, says a writer in the New York World, is to pen the sheep up nights where the dogs cannot get to them, or to kill the dogs. There is no use in setting np white-sheeted dummies in the sheep pasture or potting a bell on the big wether with the expectation of frightening such dogs from their raids on the sheep when they set out to have one. Their attacks are almost invariably made in the night, and an old sheep-kill ing dog will generally go a mile o more from home to join other doge ot hia class. He will return homt before daylight and wear such an honest lock the next day that no amount of circumstantial evidence can convince his owner that he was one of the dogs that£killed and woun» ded a dozen or more of a neighbor 9 ! sheep. Young dogs, if raised on a farm where sheep are kept, if they are sufficiently fed, and are scolded or whipped whenever they ran after sheep, even in play, will seldom be. come sheep-killers until they learn j the.habit from doga that have been suffered to run at large at their will. | About the best advice that can be i given to a man who wants to raise sheep in a locality where dog* abound, is to fence in an area large enough to accommodate bis flock in such a way tbat dogs cannot scale it This can be done at a small expense by using boards for the bottom and two or three courses of barbed wire* I fence for the top, in which case it need not be very high. This will re quire the sheep to be shut in every | Blffht; but they oan soon be made to j come at call, so that the trouble will not be great. will COTTON GO UP? It is an interesting question just now, will cotton go up ? The market, this fall has not beer what was promised, the price having been low from the very start. This is easily explained. There was over-production last year, and most of it was held back unwisely until late id the season. So far this year the price has, as a’ natural consequence, been at a low ebb. Believing that they were profiting by last year’s experience many cot ton farmers have rushed their cotton into market this year early. This has made the sales greater than they were last year at this time, although there is not near as mnch cotton raised this year as was last year. The fair weather has also done much towards bringing the crop to market early. When all of this subsides, cotton men say it is natural to suppose tbat the demand will be felt more keenly and the price of cotton will go np After all, the price of cotton is gov erned by the legitimate basis of sop ply and demand, and the pnee will depend npou this fluctuation. P. A- STOVALL. It is now a given ont fact that Editor Pleasant A. Stovall, ot the Augusta Chronicle, has resigned the office of managing editor of that pa per and will go to Savannah to re establish the Savannah Times. Editor Stovall is one of the ablest and brightest editors on the Georgia press, and the Chronicle doubtless regrets to lose him. He has done great work in Augusta, and the peo ple know it. Editor Stovall will be a great ac qnisition to the afternoon press and to Southern joornalism. He is ad mired very generally in Georgia for hia ability, bnt nowhere more than Here in Athena, where he got hie start aa editor of The Banner. Mr. M. P. Walsh, night editor ol the Chronicle has been appointed by President Walsh to take Editor Sto vall’s place on the Chronicle. By a glance at the pension list one can readily perceive that too many of us are disabled to undertake a war with Chili. Mr. BLaiNKand Mr Har rison should exert all their statesman ship to prevent a collision. THE FLEECY STriPLE BABY RACKET. One Is Almost Smothered This Morn THEY HAVE NO SYMPATHY WITH RE PUBUCANISM. It is a clear and undisputed fact that appears upon the field of poli tics that the democracy has an open field now for a clean sweep in 1892 You can hear, however, now and then some talk about the Alliance going into the third party and divi ding the democracy. This is the merest nonsense. The Alliance has no more idea of going into a third party than it has being ultimately defeated in its desires for relief. The Alliance in the South consti tutes a majority of the democratic party. Its members come forward and present the Ocala platform as embodying their views and their de mands. Is there anything undemocratic it those demands? If there is the A1 liance in the Sooth is ready to anb mit them to the scrutiny of the National Democratic convention which it will form a part and parcel and if that body refuses to put then- planks in the national platform, their will be no bolting the party on their part. Is the snbtreaaury plan undemo cratic? A greal|many thinks it is, while the Alliance think it is sound doctrine. “However,” says thai organization* * if that is deemed un democratic by the national conven tion, rll we ask is that you-, give us something better.” The demands are fair and there is absolutely no danger of Alliancemen in the South pulling away from the democratic ranks. As it was in the past and is now, so will be in 1892 and in the future; —the South is solid for Democracy and will remain so to the end. Shoulder to shoulder the southern merchant and farmer and mechanic will march in the ranks that oppose monopoly and trust and oppres sion. Their aim is one; there desires are one; their fight is one; and their vie tory will be one. The Alliancemen of Georgia and the South have no sympathy with republicanism and they are going to help wield the ponderous battle-ax of democracy wi>h which to sever iht bead of this Gorgon monster.

GEORGIA FARMERS’ WIVES- Some of the farmers’ wives in this state: says the Augusta Evening News have started a movement for diversified farming, which should be followed by the wives of farmers in every Southern state. They met, talked the matter over, and resolved that this thing of raising all cotton was about all played out, and farther resolved that Soothers farmers in the Major William Dibley, known iu Aroostook county as “The Duke of Kent,” is one of the most picturesque figures among the pioneers and politi cians of Maine.

He lives in the barracks which were erected at Fort Kent by the government at the time of Aroostook war, having purchased the property and fitted it up as a homestead.

Georgia hAs entered folly into the spirit of the Cotton Convention re cently held in Atlanta and have agreed to plant lees cotton and more small grain, corn, potatoes and the like. This sounds like business. The trouble with the South to-day is the over-production of cotton and the shortage in the production of wheat, oats, hay, corn and such crops, “potton is our section’s great commercial backbone.it is true, but pur commercial interest* have lately something besides cotton, at least enough to feed the mouths at home. To put the ball in motion, they re« solved to request their respective husbands to set apart a certain por tion ot the farm for the exclusive cultivation of wheat, vegetables, small fruits, etc., for domestic use. and that the aforesaid husbands, brothers, etc., be requested to work one hour each in this resen ation, while the wives were getting break fast ready.

It wiil be announced shortly after four o’clock on the afternoon of November 25th. It is such a close race between these two popular young men. and it is like drawing straws to say which one will win. The election thus far has been a very quiet one, although at one time it seemed as if the candidates might mount the hustings. The old political propnets are mt saying mnch on the subject. They are afraid to risk their reputation on it. The candidates are out on a still hunt, and the political pot is just begir- ning to simmer. In the aldermanic races all is very quiet. The different wards have beeu pretty thoroughly canvassed and the election pretty well settled. In the fourth, Mr E. I.

It is universally conceded that coun cil did a wise thing in establishing two schools in the first ward. ADd now tbat body has turned its attention to the question of erecting and equipping those schools at as early a date as possible. It is hoped that the Talmadge house on Ocouee street can he put in a suitable condition by January 1st, so that the Oconee street school may be abolished and removed to the new place. Then again the Baxter street school will be tutuedinto a school for whites just aa soon as the schools for negroes are finished. Then the council having accepted the lot donated bo Mr. Bloomfield, will erect a commodious Bchool building for whites in East Athens at an early date. And tbur. the Athens school system progresses.
