J u u x»xx IN r,I\, J\ I IlIbiN V ~ T ‘ J THE COLLEGE BOYS with pardonable pride that Ath ens can invite every citizen of Georti i to come to this, the greatest Fair she ever knew, for it is indeed a Fair of which Athene may justly feel proud. Considering the fact that the directors of the Stock and Poultry show under took the holding of a Fair, when every one had given it up as a hopeless under taking, when the Fair Association de clined to make the effort, and the Farm ers Alliance hesitated to take hold; when the Piedmont Exposition in At lanta, the Gainesville Fair, and the gtate Fair at Macon were all under flue headway, and being advertised widely over this section of the ; South, we tli ink that the people of Athens can point with just conceit : to the enter prise of these gentlemen and call them model citizens of Athens. They have done much for the city by the ^fearless manner with which they have taken up the matter of holding a • Fair and pushed it through to such em inent success, as is now promised. The good that will be done the city by the Fair will be incalculable. The thousands of people that will flock to Athens from every section of the State will bring the liveliest trade to the merchants they eVer knew. It will he a red letter day for Athens, in that it will show the rapid advaiieemen and progress which she has lately as sumed to the multitudes of visitors, and will attract the capitalists of the land with her wonderful future. Yes, the directors have done much for Athens by this move. Every indication goes to show that the Fair will rank among the most com plete ever given in Georgia. It will be strictly a season of amusement and fun and in this respect will be a Fair for every class of people. It will be a great day for the Farmers’ Alliance of Geor gia, and the Agricultural interests of the State will be advanced in many ways by the Alliance Day at the Fair. The farmers will get together in mutual con sultation and with speeches and lect - vires from their leaders will study their interests with an eye for the promotion of their welfare. Athens will|be glad to^receive theithous- ands of people that are expected'and will meet them as her guests. She ex tends to-day a cordial invitation to every man, woman and child in Georgia to come and join her in the gay pleasures of her Fair. Tho invitation is a broad one and embraces every class of people that it may reach. It is a cordial one and comes from the heart of every eiti- zenjthe classic’city. Athens is ready for the Fair and will greet the visitors with rousing welcome andlgood cheer next Tuesday, Novem her 12. • THE ALLIANCE AND THE ELEC TION. WORLD’S FAIR SUBSCRIPTS •Boy- will be boys,” and it is ridic ulous to try and fasten an old head on young shoulders. The recent little un pleasant ness between two societies in the State University amounts to noth ing more thau a temporary flare-up among the college students, such as wiil take place in every institution in the country; and but for the publicity given the matter through the press no one would have ever known that the slightest difference existed. The prompt and emphatic manner in which Chancellor Boggs settled the matter shows his influence over the students and his superior fitness for the position he occupies. There was more danger attached to this war of words than to the average Georgia duel—and it is said that a life insurance company will issue a policy cheaper to a man who is thirsting for gore on the field of honor than if he pursued the even tenor of his way. The demand to settle this trouble bv the selecting a “Horatii and a Curatii” was as farcical as it was nonsensical. Such a spirit might have been applauded before the birth of the Christian era, but in this day and gen eration it is a hoary and Harmless old chestnut. The young men who refuse to loan their aid to sueli a ridiculous farce are endorsed by all right thinking people. This little trouble among the students was only a small 6ized smoke—with no possible danger of it bursting into a flame—and was at once dispelled before the firmness of Chancellor Boggs. It amounted to nothing, and we predict will never occur again. The courage and honor of both societies have been maintained, and doubtless the boys now deeply regret being lead into such a quixotic combat. The subscriptions to the World’s Fair now.amount to a littte more than $2,- 000,000. In view ot the facts that $5,- 000,000 must be raised at the outset,and. that twice that sum is probably necessa ry for the enterprise, the outlook is only moderately encouraging. There is onlj r one way in which tha large amount necessary can be raised, and that is by enlisting all the business interests of New York. There has been a good deal of talk about popular subscriptions; but it costs almost as much to collect dollar subscriptions as they are worth, particularly as they are not due until months after they sub scribed. Moreover, it-is not fair that men who arc not in prosperous circum stances shouldjhe askedto give their mon ey to such an enterprise. They will not. profit by it. The business men of New York will make money from having a World’s Fair here, and they are the ones to pay for it. In a little over three weeks Congress will meet. The Faiv committee must then present their plans to the Con gressional Committees, and state what progress they have made in carrying them out. We trust that their showing will be satisfactory.—N. Y. Star. A Cowboy President. j A correspondent of a German paper j gives an interesting account of the career president of the Bulgarian the late DEMOCRATIC TRIUMPH. The recent sweep that the Democracy and Tariff reform have made over the entire Union carries with it a great sig nificance concerning the Farmer’s Alli ance of this country. There are many conjectures made as to the cause of the surprising results of the recent elections over the United States, and no one in their trium phant excitement can hardly account for the amazing success of the Demo crats. It is the Farmer’s Alliance that did the work. By a close examination of the manner in which the notes were polled and a glance at the figures from the agricultural districts of those states in which the elections were held, it will he plainly seen thqt the Alliancemen have not only succeeded in their warfare against jute, but have also won a grand victory for tariff reform, and the De mocracy. To the “Alliance we allege the chief cause of the recent tidal wave of Demo cracy that has swept over the land with amazing lorce and effect, and we feel more elated c~ar the bright prospects of the Farmers’ Alliance to-day than ever before. There can be no doubt entertained, but that it is the mighty hand of the Alliance that has turned the tide of American politics, and we venture to predict that this • power behind the throne will show up more mighty still when the campaign of 1892 is over. There is great work for the Fanners’ Alliance. The salvation of the coun try from republicanism and high taaiff rests in their hands, and by them alone will it be consumated. The horny hands of the farmers and laborers are those that will rule the sisterhood of States, and by them the supremacy of Demo cracy will he reinstated. While we consider this to he the fu ture work of the Farmers’ Alliance aiid look to them as the hope of the De mocracy and Tariff reform, we are in dined to offer them a valuable pointer in the way of a ticket for 1892. Here it is: For President,Geo ver Cleveland; for Vice-President, Jas. E. Campbell, of Ohio. We sincerely believe this is the ticket for the Democrats in the next campaign, and the Banner takes a special pleasure in making out the tick et that will surely win if adopted, The recent developments have shown that Mr. Campbell is the popular man of the west, and Cleveland’s national popularity, together with the recent Democratic gains, is enough to warrant success in the next campaign for the Clevelaml-Campbell ticket. The Democrats swept the polls Tues day, and the victories all along the line foretell a grand and glorious triumph in 1892. The fight in Virginia was one around which great intere-t was centered, and the overwhelming defeat of Malione shows that the Old Dominion is still true to her party, and cannot be bought or deceived into voting such a man as Mahone into office. From New York comes glorious news of a great victory, and even Ohio and Iowa, two strong Republican states, grown tread of their party, have conclu ded thatit is best to sail under,Demo cratic colors. This sweeping victory for the Demo cracy means a great deal, and will have weight in the presidential election of 1892. It means that in that year, good gov ernment will return, and the people will snatch the reins from the hands of those now in authority to place them in worthier and better, and in this work Iowa, Ohio, New York and Vir ginia will do their part. The following figures as shown by the Boston Herald will give the com parative debt statement of the United States under Harrison and Cleveland’s rule: The debt statement for the month of October, though less favorable than that for September, shines in contrast to the statements for the first two months <-f the current fiscal year. The debt shows a decrease of $9,104,853, in com parison with a decrease of $4,585.(515) iin October 1888, a decrease of $16 8.G,- 696 in October, 1887, a decrease of $13,- 201,619 in October, 1886, and a decrease of $13,276,774 in October, 1885. It will be seen that the present reduction is $4,519,254 larger than the decrease re ported one year ago; hut it falls $7,- 728,842 below the decrease in October, 1887, $4,096,766 below the decrease in October, 1885, and $4,171,921 below the decrease in October, 1885. To sum the comparison on administration lines, the decrease for the mouth of October in the four years of the late Demoerntie administration averaged $11,974,427, a reduction larger by $2,869,574 than that now noted. This of itself is not a bright exhibit, butwhen you make the comparison on broader lines—for the four months of the fiscal year from J uly 1 to October 31—you find a far more marked deter ioration. The reduction of debt lor the four months’ period stands at $15,- 695,913 this year, against §28,294,620 last year, $40,736,035 two years ago, $34,788,435 three years ago, and $37,- 576,581 four years back. The decrease for the four months’ period ip the four years of Democratic rule averaged $35- 348,918, against a decrease of $15,095, 953 this year. Thus the current ex hibit is poorer by $19,652,795 than the average reached by the Cleveland ad ministration.'’ THE WHITFIELD RESOLUTIONS. Bill Pledgor seems to think that Judge Emory Speer’s chances for future hon ors at the hands of the Republican par ty are slim. He speaks some very un gracious words in his paper about Judge Speer. The defeat of Senator Whitfield’s ef fort to provide a tribunal composed of some of the purest and ablest men in Georgia, headed by the three judges of the supreme court, to adjust all matters in dispute between the lessees of the IV estern and Atlantic and the state bodes no good. If ever there was a proposition of any kind calculated to commend itself to well-meaning people this effort of Sen ator Whitfield ought to have done so. As chairman of the joint committee of conference with the lessees, he saw the difficulties which surrounded the ques tion and appreciated the dangers to the state, and went to work to apply remedy which would do justice to the lessees and at the same time rigidly guard the interests of the. people. His resolutions were fought fiercely, but as we believe, unadvisedly, which time will probably serve to clearly demon strate. That the lessees have claims which ought to be adjusted no one will gain sky, and that the state couhl have set up counterclaims is equally true. Sen ator Whitfield’s resolutions contem plated the settlement of these claims in a speedy way, so that all complications and doubt as to what the state had to offer to the lessees under the new lease act should be freed from uncertainty To say that some such method is not advisable is to say that business men who disagree should not try to settle their disagreements, but instead rush headlong into tedious, expensive and dangerous litigation, regardless of the consequences. In the discussion of the question from time to time The Constitution has had but one object in view, and that was to point out what, in our judgment, was so manifestly to the interest of the peo ple of Georgia. That the senate has not been able to view it from this stand- point creates no spirit of resentment. Let us hope that it was right and that we were wrong; but, viewing every phase sjof ^e question as presented by both sides, we are forced to the conelu sion that it has made a grave mistake and that the future will assuredly con firm our position. Of Senator Whitfield’s efforts it may be said that lie was oil llie right line and that his dignified and manly cour in the conception and advocacy of his proposition will be obliged to meet the appi oval of the people, and, whether the wisdom oLhis efforts be made maul fest early or late, the time will coiqe and at no distant day, when he and those who supported him- will be tnined.—Atlanta Constitution. 1 Try BLACK-DRAUGHT tea lor Dyspepsia.

Hill such flattery while visiting that city and left missing the immortal name of Joe Johnston while a . guest of the Gate city, and closes its com • plaint thus: “But Governor Hill need not lay the flattering unction to his soul that he is “a bigger man” than Joe Johnston. He is not “elimatized,” as they say in Habersham county, and even in Atlanta Joe Johnston couhl beat him ten to one for any office.” A special from Bismarck, N. D., says: “The reports of destitution in North Dakota are greatly exaggerated, and, while there are some isolated com munities in need of assistanc, the state ment that ‘o^er 100,000 people are in want’ does the State injustice. There are some suffering iu Rodney and Kelso counties, but outside these localities it is difficult to locate any one in actual want. The reporters sent out from Mineapolis and St. Paul are in most in stances highly colored.

There are persons still living in Rustchuk who remember seeing him trotting merrily along the streets soon after the break of day, taking his flock to the pastures on the outskirts of the town. After a time lie got a promotion. His employer and a number of other Bulgarians decided upon establishing a reading room in Rustchuk, and, as they wanted some one to keep the books and papers, and the place generally, in good order, young Stoyanow was brought in from the pasture and put in charge. The sight of printed matter for the first time in his life was a revelation to him, and he began to feel the influence of that passion for knowledge which re mained with him throughout life. By dint of hard work, lie acquired a knowl edge of reading, and in six months had taught himself to read fairly well. Following on his mental expansion came greater ambition. He went to Bucharest, where he found employment in a printing establishment. There he acquired skill as a compositor, and there, too, he made the acquaintance of an other type setter, who became- his life long friend, and ia now known as minis ter-president of Bulgaria. M. Stambulow. Stoyanow occupied his leisure by study ing scientific and other subjects; he also attained considerable knowledge of French and German. Some articles he wrote soon after the war with Russia, concerning Russian pol icy in Bulgaria, attracted attention to him as a man of genius, and lie was soon after elected a deputy. . From that day his career was one of advancement. rcctiliar Local Casa in Germany. Germans are anxiously awaiting the fin;d verdict in a very peculiar case vv 1; icli recently came before the German courts. Two ladies of VVesel, it seems, made a complaint before a magistrate some V-.iio ago that one of their neighbors was ov nor of a rooster whose loud crow ing disturbed their si umbers every night. The magistrate decided that the noise was disorderly and fined the owner- of the rooster “because lie did not pre vent tiie animal from crowing at night.’* An appeal from this decision was taken to the higher court, but with out success. Now, it appears, the owner of the objectionable rooster has appealed to the 1; ighest tribunal in the country. He argues that his rooster only exercises his natural right when ho crows, and that a rooster is a useful and very neces sary animal. “Without roosters,” he explains, “there would be no hens, and if we had no hens there would be no eggs. Since, therefore, we cannot do without hens and eggs, we cannot do without roosters either.” The case, so far, has been rather expensive for the de fendant, but he is of good cheer and hopes to cany the day by his logical ar gument.—Exchange.

The New Opera House a Scene of Gay Pleasures—Our Hebrew Friends Enjoy an Evening of Merriment and Mirth. A brilliant success. The Jewish Charity ball is numbered among the most brilliant entertainment oi the season, ami the managers have reason to congratulate themselves on the unbounded success of each and every feature. The general, committee on arrange ments, consisting of Messrs. M. G. Michael, Chairman; P. Stern and S. Sloman had spared no efforts to make lie occasion the success it proved to be, and they were the favorite toasts of the evening They had obtained the New Opera house for thescene ofthe gayelies, and had it floored with a delightful dancing floor to afford pleasure to the votaries of Terpsichore. They also paid especial attention to the musical feature of the entertainment and se cured the services of Card’s superb or chestra from Macon consisting of twelve pieces. In fact they left nothing undone that would be likely to add to the pleasure of the young folks and the old, aud they have reasons to congrat ulate themselves indeed upon the suc cessful management of every feature of the plcasaut evening. The ladies also who had charge of the general management of the ball are to congratulated upon the success of their labors m its behalf. Mrs. M. Myers and Mrs. Cluis Stern, the ladies’ com mittee of general arrangements were of valuable service in the prepa ration of the ball, and their presence last night was sufficient to warrant that the evening passed off’ most pleasantly to all pres ent. The hall was given under the aus pices of the Ladies’ Temple Aid Asso ciation, of which Mrs. M. Myers is president, Mrs. C.Morris vice-president Mrs. M, G. Michael secretary, Mrs Chas. Stern treasurer. The masters of ceremonies were Messrs. M. G. Michael aud P. Stern, and the cordial and courteous manner in which, they received the guests was universally admired and loudly com plimented by all present. Promptly at 9 o’clock the delightful strains of Card’s elegant orchestra arose in voluptuous melody and invited the gay and happy-hearted throng of young people to the whirl of the dizzy dance, while the older ones took seats in the dress - circle and watched with interest the young people as they mingled in graceful confusion in the dreamy waltz or tripped the light and merry polka. It was indeed a gorge ous scene of. beauty and chivalry, lit with glowing lights and bright smiles. The costumes of the young ladies were rich and elegant, embracing every delicate shade of colors known to the human eye, It would be an aimless task to give the names of all present as the opera house was filled from dress circle to gallery with ladies and gentle men many of whom came from difler- ent cities of the State. Among the ladies present were: Miss Daisy Myers who was handsomely arrayed in a rich costume of white satin, and was greatly admired by all present. Misses Sophie Stern, Nora Stern and Sarah Stern each of whom were lovely in their elegant costumes, and were among the fairest that graced the occasion. Misses Nor ma Marks, Ithoda Nathan, Minnie Kal- vannski, Bessie ,Cchen, Nellie Fnnken- stein Rebecca Morris, Helen Marks, and scores of others whose names could not be obtained graced the occasion with their beauty ana loveliness and added to the enjoyment of the evening. Among the gentlemen present were Messrs Moses Myers, of Atlanta, Frank Myers, of Augusta, Lee Flatau, Sol Flatati, M. G. Michael, Frank Harde man, W. A. Hemphill, Eugene Black, Frank . Lipscomb, Tom Gerdine, John Boston, Tom Felder, W. D. Ellis, E. P. U pshaw, Tom Cobb, S. Raphael and and many others. Elegant refreshments were sold and quite a nice sum*realized. Daring the entertainment votes were taken for the most popular and attrac tive young ladies present* and -to the lucky one was presented a handsome set. of furs. *A handsome umbrella was given as a corresponding prize for the gentlemen. To the most popular married lady was givena handsome embroidered cush ion, and was won by Mrs. M. Myers. A prize was also given to the most popular married gentleman. Mrs. S. Raphael was one of the most popular ladies at the ball, and her pres ence added much to the enjoyment of the occasion. She numbered her friends b.y the scores and entertained them roy ally. There was also a raffle of a fine set of furniture presented by Loomis Hart Manufacturing Company,of Chattanoo ga, from which a nice sum was obtain ed. Everybody enjoyed the evening in the extreme and were unanimous in the verdict that it could not have been made more delightful under any con siderations or conditions.
