There are many newspapers in the Union, for the most part Republican, that claim with a great deal of pride that the present Congress is going to become a Billion Dollar Congress No. 2. The chief aim of such edU torial utterances is to create antago nism to Democracy among those of onr people whose watchword is econ- rmy and whose faith is pinned to a policy of retrenchment. We have always maintained that the Democratic party was the party of economy ; we believe it is now laboring to the fullest extent of its abilities to economize and retrench, and we spurn the charge cf extrava gance made upon the present House of Representatives as being utterly without foundation in fact. It is true that a large amount of appropriations have been made, but if these same iournalists who cry extravagance, would only examine into the true state of affairs, they would see that the work of this House has progressed far in advance of that of the preceding House ; that it has done more business already and that the necessary appropriations have about all been made ; and that in view of these facts the grand total of expenditures falls far below that of the Billion Dollar Congress. The Democratic majority have kept a watchful eye upon the Treas ury ; at every possible point the ex penses of government have been re duced; and by the shrewd work of Holman and his colleagues on the appropriations committee economy has become a thing of reality. And besides all this, the Demo crats have had to carry an extra bnrden in the shape and form of legislation passed by the last Con gress, laws that call for appropria tions from a Democratic House, al though they had their origin in Re publican jobbery and corruption The present Democratic House is making a record for itself. Although laboring under great disadvantages, heaped npon them by their Republi can predecessors, the Democrats are rising superior to the difficulty, and by an honest and firm policy of re form, retrenchment and economy, are demonstrating to the people that the only party that will protect their bests interests is the Democracy. t ie Democrats; he sets that a se rious division might make North Carolina a Republican State, and hence his step. If that is good doctrine in North Caioiina, it will apply equally well to Gejrgia, and the fsimcrs of Geoi- gia who have gone ofl into the ranks of the Third party should lose no lime in coming back to the party of their fathers. They will be welcomed back just as heartily and as cor* dially and in a spiiitof equal loving kindness as was exhibited on the re turn of the prodigal son. Come back; it is the only way in which the peace, prosperity and hap piceas of the South can be prrserved. tions for the week were 28,394 baits and for 1890 they w ere bales.

Athens should by all means have the repair shops of the Georgia, Carolina and Northern Railroad, and if the proper work is done she will get them. Fifty acres of land and a neat sum of money have already been subscribed as an inducement for these shops, and with energetic ef forts the subscriptions can be raised to such an amount as will render it to the advantage of the G., C. <fc N. road to locate the shops at this place All that is necessary to bring the shops here will be a strong and uni ted pull together.' If Athens is ever going to be a great city, just such enterprises as these are to be se cured. Let the citizens put their shoul ders to the wheel and by a united effort secure these shops. AS LOW AS POSSIBLE. The tax rate of Athens should be just as low as possible, and we feel certain that the members of the council look at the matter in that ight. The taxes of a city are among its necessities. They are obliged to be neat, and where t bey are not bur deneome, should he paid withoui grumbling or dissatisfaction. We are in hopes that the City coun cil will determine that the tax rate in Athens should not be raised, that it is high enough already, and wt believe that onr aldermen will do their full duty in this matter. The tax rate should be as low possible and in order to keep it there it would not be amiss to cut down the expenses of the city in every depart ment. THE STATE DEMOCRATIC CONVEN TION- In our telegraphic columns yes* ter day The Banner gave a synopsis of the prccfediDgs of the Georgia State Democratic Convention. Delegates were elected to the Nat ional Democratic Convention which meets in Chicago in a few weeks. These delegates go uninstructed and have at heart the interests of the party and the country. They are representative men of Georgia, and wi 1 work in harmony for the tri umph of Democracy. The platform adopted, which we publish in another column, is broad enough to unite all Georgians. It is in accord with the teachings and doctrines of the only National party that can give any hope of bringing relief to the toiling masses. The people groan under the burdens im posed upon them by the corrupt par ty that for a third of a century has saddled upon them iniquitous la* s and unjust burdens. There cau be no doubt that a sound platform will be adoptt d at the Chi cago Convention, and with able and available men as candidates for President and Vice Presidtnt the Democratic parly will achieve a great victory in the approaching election, and then inaugurate reforms that will bnng relief to the toiling masses THE ONLY WAY. There is but one way for the fare mere of Georgia to obtain reliet from the burdensome laws that oppress them. That way is clearly pointed out, and unless they go therein, no relief can be expected. The Democratic party has always fought the battles of the people ; it is fighting them now and will con tinue to fight them to the end. Democratic unity in the fall elec tions means the triumph of onr party; it means the Beating of a Democratic President, and the election of both houses of Congress. Then with all branches of the Government in the control of the Democracy relief will come. On the other hand division in the ranks of the Southern Democracy means defeat for the party; it means a return of Republicanism to power ; and hence a perpetuation of the un just, oppressive and burdensome laws that are now bearing down with crashing weight npon the masses of the people. Those who have dritted off into Third partyism need not hng to their bosoms the delusive hope of relief through that channel. It will never come that way. The only possible result of Third partyism in this di rection would be to aid in the tri umph of the Republican party, the arch enemy of the people. President Polk, of the Farmers’ Alliance, once devoted to Third par tyism, at last sees the hand-writing fiu the wall, and is now urging the " -r of THE COTTON MOVEMENT. The New York Financial and Commercial Chronicle of the 14tt> inst. gives the following account the movement of the cotton crop for the week ending Friday evoning, the 13thinst: Receipts.—The total receipts have reached 50,127 bales, against 50,870 bales last week and 49,283 bales the previous week, making the total re ceipts since the 1st of September 1891, 6,845,152 bales, against 6,675, 044 bales for the same period 1890-91, showing an increase since September 1st, 1891, of 170,108 bales. The exports for the week reached a total of 52,951 bales, of which 15 528 were to great Britain, 9,502 to France and 27,921 to the rest :he continent. The imports into continental ports during the week have been 48,000 bales. Ihe figures indicate an increase in the cotton in sight Friday night of 1,044,933 bales as compared with the same date of 1891, an increase of 1,805,768 bales as compared with the corresponding da‘e of 1890, and an increase of 1,981,814 bales as compared with 1889. The totals, show that the interior stocks have decreased during the week 18,047 bales, and were Friday night 77,227 bales more than at the fame period last year. The receipts stall the towns have been 5,300bales less than the same week last year, and since September 1 they are 137, 032 bales more than for the same time in 1890 91 The total receipts fiom the plan' tations since September 1,1891, are 7,054,194 bales, in 1890-91 were 6,848,218 bales; in 1889 90 were 5,561,007 bales.

The ••Alabama.” Macon Telegraph. We see that there is some protest against Secretary Tracy’s proposition to name tbe next cruiser the “ Alaba ma.» We also observe that none of the protestors assume that Secretary Tracy is a disloyal villian, plotting to destroy tbe government, for mating such a proposition, as they surely would have done had it been made by a Democratic secretary. As Mr. Tracy i8 not accused of a crime but only of an error of judg ment, we hope he will stick to his plan. It is true that to refuse to name a war ship Alabama, when the tbe scheme now being carried out gives the names of states to vessels of a cer tain class, would ocly make the mem ory of the old Confederate cruiser fresher m the minds of men, a thing not wholly undesirable, for she had wonderful career; hut the refusal would manifest a sectional spirit which we do not approve. It is true that Al abama has had an amount of free ad vertising in all parts of the world through a war ship that no other state ever had, but that is only an argument that she might wait awhile, not that she has no right to her full share in tbe present distribution. If the new Ala bama fulfills her mission as thoroughly as the old one did, there will be no re gret when her career is ended that she bore the name Alabama. It’s no exceptional to the rule of bonnets that those of tbe Presidential kind, wherein bees buzz, are likely to be rather expensive to their possessors.

Polk, the President of the National Farmers’ Alliance, has abandoned the idea of trying to airry the Alliance into the Third party, says the Savannah News. Col Livingston had a talk wi:b him on Saturday. They met on the train bound south from Washi 1 gton. Col. Livingston was on his way to attend the Democratic Sta e Convention in Atlanta, and Col. Polk was going to Raleigh to attend the Democratic Convention of North Carolina. Col Polk said he is urging North Caro lina allianccmen to enter the Demo cratic primaries and fight their bat- les within the Democratic party Col. Livingston said he bel eves Col Polk is abandoning tbe Third party, seeing that there is no hope lor it. Col. Polk has been slow to see that the Third party movement will amount to nothing. It has nothing o rest upon that appeals strongly to the common sense of tbe people. The great majority of those who have gone into the Third party nave done o without any good reason They have not studied the Third party platform, and, therefore, have no opinion as to whether its doctrines or demands would help to better their material condition if they were carried into effect. Hard times have made them dissatisfied, and they are ready for any change that dema gogues may advise. They do not stop to think whether the changes proposed by the Third party would be beneficial to them or not. The Third party craze has about ran its coarse in this State. Com paratively little s heard about that party now. A great many of tbe farmers became members of it imme diately after tbe St. Louis convtn- tion, and before they had the plat form adopted by that convention ex plained to them. The meat of them from all accounts, are not very en thusiastic Third party men now. A good many of them, there is reason to believe, are ashamed they ever had anything to do with it. Before the election in November the most of them who were Democrats will be back in tbe Democratic party. Col. Polk was willing enough to carry the Alliance into the Thi;d party, but he found he couldn’t do it, and he was wise.enongh to see that an eflort to do it would result in the ruin of the Alliance. Indeed, h was made prtliy char at tbe re cent conference of alliance presi dents and executive officers at Bir- mingham that ihe Third party threa tened to bring about the disintegra tion of the alliance orgaoizat:oa.

A gentleman who has just returned from Shady Dale tells of an interesting marriage which took place in that place yesterday morning. A protracted meeting had been going on at the Methodist church for some days, and the marriage was announced to take place on Wednesday night. Oa account of preparations bring made at the Methodist church the religious exercises were con ducted in the Baptist church on two or three nights. The marriage was set for 9:30 o’clock Wednesday night, so immediately after preaching at the Baptist church, the minister with a large number of the congregation, iepaired to the Methodist church. Everything was in readiness for the ceremony—the bridal party were at the church door in carriages, the organist sat at the organ ready to peal forth the wedding march, the ushers were wait ing to escort the party up the aisle of the church, when the minis'er sent r ut to the bridegroom elect for the marriage license. The young man turned pale, afeer ex amining his pickets and found he bad left this necesst ry paper at home in his other pocket. Tbe home of tbe groom was at Monti- cello. so he was in a dilemma. A Jus tice of the Peace who was present stepped up and said (.bathe would make affidavit to the fact that the license had been issued, for he had seen them. “That will not do,” said the minister, with strenuous emphasis on the “not I can’t proceed without the license.” The your g manat once started home after the license, behind a fast horse.
