'g up for what he ■ W-linyd the best interests of ' wa constant anil loud in have our boubts about the practi cability of reducing the size of cotton bales to 125 pounds weight,* as is pro posed for next year by the Allianee. To secure aheap transportation across thf water, it is necessary that these bales be compressed in as small a cotn- pas as possible, and to pack these little pockets would be an endless and very costly job, for it will necessitate about four times the labor. But there is a still more serious ob jection that we see to these small pock ets of cotton. They are a mighty handy s‘re t'» carry off, and we predict that they will encourage a startling increase in the number of cotton thieves. A farmer will have to put under lock and key every bale as fast as it is packed, and then stand guard over it with a shot gun until sold. Of course the railroads must charge more for transporting them, as they will occupy a greater space than com pressed bales of a greater size. There is another serious objection that we gee to these pockets of cotton. It will necessitate every ginner buying a new press, as tlie ones now in use will be until for packing these little hales, as also render utterly worthless the mil lions invested in cotton compresses. The proposition is too revolutionizing and destructive, and we do not believe will meet with favor either from the farmer, the buyer or shipper. It is re turning to the slow methods of our fore fathers, when the seed were picked from cotton by hand, and the bales then packed by a negro with a crow-bar. In this age and generation the tendency is to advance, not go backward. We should buy Sienvier presses if possible and pack more eolton in a bale, instead of reducing the size. We trust the Alliance will seriously consider this important matter before deciding to put up their cotton in pock ets. our city. I he paving ordinance is now ' a law, and lion. H. (j.

They arc more burdensome far than they were during the Bullock regime— and they arc piling up higher and high er every time the legislature meets in summer session. Just think of it, before the war, in the fifties, a man could own a hundred thousand dollars worth of property without paying over seventy-five dol lars tax on it. sow he would have to pay over eight hundred dollars tax on it! Why this difference? Is the gov ernment now better than then? Are the present statesmen and public offi cers worth eleven times as much as - ich men as Stephens, Cobb, Toombs, Hill ann Brown and his State officer*? O, Temporal O, Mores!—Madisonian. There is food for grave thought in th* above short article. This thing of tax ation is getting to be a frightful bur then on the people, and every succeed ing legislature leaves the load sligutlv iucrcased. There is certainly room for reform in this direction, and it i« high time that the voter* of our State were taking the matter in hand and select ing representatives pledged to retrench ment and reform. In truth, there “5re t«o many anneessary departments and high salaried officers in Georgia—and soiao of these positions were created to fit the men who fill them. Let the affairs of our State be thoroughly over hauled, and then lop off every head that i* urn absolutely required to administer the affairs of government.

The combination of Hie jute bagging manufacturers against tlie farmers is now in its dying throes, it matters not what lie their boast. According to the confession of one of its members, fully one-fourth the crop this rear will be wrapped in second-hand jute or cotton bagging—and when you take this slice from tlie sales of any business it is bound to toll. As evidence conclusive that the jute men are weakening and fee! the effects of the Allianee boycott, we have but to cite to the fact that new bagging can b? bought in Athens at tjn cents per yard, when last year four teen cents was paid. But for this fight by the farmers, these monopolists and entorticnevs would now he demanding, in all probability, 25 or 50 cents per yard. In truth, we believe that the jute bagging sales will have been cut off one-half, and that ship loads of the butts they bought in India will rot on their hands. Neverjdid men band together in a more righteous cause than that of the Farmer’s Allianes when they declared war under the black flag against the jute trust. Every honorable and just man naistjaiul will endorse and sympa- thizejwith them. Here wo see a few in dividuals associated together and enter ing into a conspiracy to extort from one class and section a ussurious price for an article that they consider indispen sable to the cotton-grower. To resist this robbery the victims met combine tion with combination, and declared a boycott against jute bagging. The Al liance proved their loyalty and deter mination by continuing the w ar even when they knew it meant a sacrifice of over a dollar per bale. The victory is nearly won, and next year will see this dictorial jute trust humble supplicants at the feet of the men tl ey sought to rob. They showed tliecotton grower no mercy when they thought he was in their power—now let the Alliance fight to an extermination. -A citizen of Eatonton smorkes about twelve pounds of tobacco yearly in pipe that^he declares is over 200 years old.

The electric plant in Atlanta caught on fire, causing all of the street lamps to go out. The President of Mexico has ordered the shooting of seven insurreetionery leaders. A thrilling story full of tragedy comes from our neighboring town, Winter- ville. It involves the killing of Aus. Weir, colored, by Mr. Pi Kidd, and the details of the affair as wo learned them from Mr. W. I. Tuck, a prominent citi zen of Winterville go to show that Mr. Kidd was acting totally in self defense when lie shot the negro. he story goes thus: Yesterday, while Mr. Pi Kidd was having some cotton ginned at Mr. Ben William’s public gin for his father, Mr. J. N. Kidd, some of his hands got into a fuss with several of Air. William’* hands and a light was about to ensue. Mr. Kidd interfered and commanded his hands to stop fussing ami go to work, and seeing they were stubborn to obey him, he approached them giving more emphatic orders for the fuss to cease, when Aus. Weir became enraged with him and picking up a scantling that lay nearby, approached Mr. Kidd raising it to strike. Mr. Kidd only had time to draw his revolver and lire to prevent the enraged negro Irom killing him with the scantling. The ball passed throught his breast and while at last accounts the negro was still alive, it is thought the wound will prove fatal. Mr. Kidu is an estimable citizen of Oglethorpe county, and no blame is at taehed to him for the shooting of tlie negro, by whites or blacks who saw the affair, as they all agree that tlie shot was made in seif defense.

Must make next train.” This didn’t explain what the meeting was doing with tlie $1,000,000 and more that is lying idle in the hands ot tlie commission, so when Francis B. Reeves appeared he waa made the target for a round of questions. “Trier haven’t adjourned vet.” he shouted as he broke away. And be sped around the corner.

These have all been paid in accordance with the report upon theii, condition submitted by til® committee at Johnstown.
