gotten tbe start ot his colleagues,and
for downright meanness “bears the
palm alone."
He has just covered himself with
infamy in reference to the division
of the money appropriated to Geor
gia colleges.
He says : The money shall be
divided equally between the two
races. When the interest ot the ne
gro in tbe South is concerned,
want it understood that I am for the
negro.”

has acted fairly by the Degr«», and

ALLIANCE WORK FOR 1891.
The present year will be an event
ful one in the history of the country-,
The Farmers’ Alliance will be
given a chance to show tbe nation
what can be done for the relief of the
farming classes.
The farmers are burdened with
debt and are striving to lilt the
weight from off their shoulders. The
Alliance proposes to help them in
their efforts.
The best and most effective work
of the Alliance for 1891 does not lie
in tbe field of politics ; that line of
work is all right and proper, but it
is the smallest part of the woik.
Tue Alliance has as one of its fun
damental principles the practice of
economy. Its membets are deter,
mined to carry that principle out to
the very letter. They propose to
dispense with everything that re
sembles a luxury, to economize in
every direction, to pay off debts that
oppress them, and to labor towards
the consummation of that state of
happiness where they can enjoy “the
glorious privilege of being independ
ent."
It is their intention to devote
great deal of' time and labor to the
production of home supplies. They
know that almost everything needed
for a living can be raised on the
Georgia farm. And while an honest
farmer rises with the morning sun
to till the soil of his farm and plaot
the crops that will bring forth the
harvest, his wife will milk the cows,
and churn tbe milk, and feed the
chickens, and make the clothes, and
his boys will drive (he cattle to the
pasture and feed the pigs, and his
girls will help their mother in her
work. The result will be that tbe
farmer will raise the mortgage off
bis land, and bis home will be his in
fee simple forever.
Tbe Alliancemen are going to pa
tronize home industry, and with true
loyally to their native section are
going to buy everything they need
that is made in the South.
There is going to be no difference
between Ailiaocctr.en and merchants.
They-are going to walk band in hand
in the conflict for the farmer’s relief.
Tue -merchants are going to deal
fairly with the farmers and the far
mers are going to pay them back in
their own coin. The Alliance has
placed itself firmly on the platform
of preserving the good credit of its
members. Its intention is to get
the farmers out of debt, and to acs
complish this desire, the farmer must
meet his obligations.
So, it can be seen at a glance that
the work of the Alliance for the year
is a grand one.
If this body can bring it to pass,
that tbe farmers of our State and
section, freed from debt, with their
eorn-crib9 full of corn, and their
sm( ke-houses full of meat, with their
credit on a firm basis and their fti-
tute of a bright character, can look
the world in the face and say, “ we
owe no man tbeu tbe people of
America will have cause to be proud
of the Farmers’ Alliance.
And we firmly believe that it lies
in the power of the Alliance to do
ANOTHER BLACK EYE-
The Force bill received such a blow
in tbe Senate Monday and was knock
ed into such a shape that even Gran
ny Hoar will never recognize it
again.
The vote on the motion of Mr.
Wolcott to take up the apportion
ment bill demonstrated one very for
cible fact, and the partisan support
ers of the Force bill might as well
learn it at once. -
Tuere are enough republicans in
the Senate opposed to the bill to de
feat it, if it ever should cJbme to a
vote, but they do not care to record
themstlves against it, if they can
accomplish the same result 1)3* con
sidering other business until the 4th
or March.
The action of the Senate is to be
bailed with delight, not only in the
South, but all over the Union. It
practically disposes of the Force bill
and saves the country from what
might have been very disastrous lags
islalion.
The crowning glory of it all is the
fact that the little man in the White
House and his partisan followers
have been given a disagreeable dose
of medicine by seven of their own
party. What caused these Senators
to vote as they did, we will not at
tempt to explain.
Concerning a certain John J. Ins
galls, however, it might be related
that the Farmers’ Alliance medicine
settled his stomach and straightened
his vote.
The democratic members are to be
congratulated on the manner
which they conducted the fight
against the bill, and especially is
Senator Gorman to be praised for
his excellent leadership.
Tbe consideration cf the appor.
tionment bill will take up consideras
ble time. Thtnif the Force bill
again taken up the democrats wi
again obstruct its passage. If the
cloture rule is pressed to a vote, it
probable it will not pass. If it does
the,Force bill will then come te
vote on its passage. It will in
probabilit}' be defeated on a clos
vote. If, however, it should pass,
will be transmitted to the House for
amendments to be agreed to. The
House will then discuss it, and pro
bably agree to it. The President
would then sign it and it would
become a law.
However, can all this be done be
fore® March 4:h ? ,»
To the iniud of a rational man
is apparent that it cannot be. done.
And in view of all the facts, the re
publicans will not have a chance to
do it.
We believe the Force bill has been
shelved permanently-, and will not
see daylight again.
BAKNUM’S BIG CIRCUS STATE ENCAMPMENT.
WILL NOTCOMPROM1SE WITH THE
COVINGTON A MACON.
THE TIME IS RIPE FOB ATHENS TO
MAKE STRENUOUS EFFORTS
COUNTRY POSTOFFiCES-
It a great imposition of the Govern
ment to neglect so seriously the mail fa
cilities in the country, and it would be
wise action on the part of Congress to
take steps for the improvement of the
postal service in tbe rural districts.
On this line Professor Rodney Welch
in the February Forum says: -“In the
country the postal facilities are hardly
any better than they were a century
ago. There are no money-order post-
offices, except in large commercial and
manufacturing towns, and no free col
lection or distribution of mail matter.
If a farmer wishes to mail a letter he
must go to the postoffice, perhaps ten
miles away, to do it. No good reason
can be assigned why money orders
shonld not be issued and cashed
at every postoffee in the
country. As to the free col
lection anl free delivery of postal mat
ter, the people in the rural districts aie
as much entitled to it as town people
are, although the service c, ntd not
from the nature of things be performed
so often m'a sparsely-settled region as
in a thickly-populated one. The gen
eral intelligence of any class largely dt-
pends on the facilities for learning what
going on in the world. Favoring
one class gives it a special advantage,
which in time will produce marked
results. Depriving country people of
the postal facilities that are enjoyed by
those who live in large towns, tends to
lower their intellectuol standing and to
keep it below that of those who live in
cities. Iu nearly all European coun
tries the postal facilities are as good in
the rural districts as in the large towns
In several of them country people have
tbe advantage of the parcel post and of
postal savings batiks. They are not
slighted because they cultivate farms
and vineyards, or raise cattle, sheep,
and fowls.”

The compromise between the Coving
ton & Macon and Barnum’s circus.
For some days past the rumor be
came current that the circus company
had agreed to compromise their claim
on the C. & M. for $4,000 but it seems
that the circus company, has made no
such proposition or agreement.
The history of the case is familiar to
everybody in Athens. The circus wu9
on its way to Athens to give an exhibi
tion here, when a wreck on the Coving
ton & Macon below Madison caused a
general smash up among the animals,
doing considerable damage to tbe com
pany besides causing the management
to fail iu two or three engagements.
Suit was brought against the railroad,
and is still pending, though a rumor
has been circulating that a compromise
had been agreed upon by both parties.
NQ TRUTH IK IT.
Messrs. Hoke and Burton Smith, of
Atlauta, represent the circus in' the
ca-e, and Mr. Burton Smith, a member
of that firm aaye:
No such proposition has been made
by the Circus company. We represent
them iu the case iu question, and while
it is true we shall endeavor to effect
settlement of the ease. It is also
true that no offer has been made by the
Circus Company to settle for any
amount less than their claim. Their
claim amounts to about $50,000 Tlie
sum of $4,000 has not been named
considered. No speciflij sum has been
mentioned by either party, other than
the full amount of the claim. We
would not accept an offer of $4 000 or
any such sum.
“We expect to show that the injury
to tlie Circus Company was caused by
the negligence of the Raih-oad Com
pany, and that the Circus Company
was in no way responsible therefor.’’

charged, the ball taking effect in the
back just beneath the shoulder blade
of Parks Hosea, also a carrier.
Drs. Bloomfield and Goss were sum
moned immebiately and the wonnd was
carefully probed. The ball entered the
back directly under the shoulder blade

The ball could not be found aud will
probably not be recovered.

The State encampment.
The various cities iu Georgia are
making vigorous to secure the
State encampment, realizing, one and
all, the excellent advantages that will
flow from it. The State encampment,
if located here, would be a permanent
military institution and to the city it
would prove a genuine boon.
OUTLINING THE CHANCES.
A man deeply interested in military
matters says: “In a short time the Ad
visory Board will receive bids from the
various cities desirous of securing the
encampment, and if Athens is equal to
the emergency, she should avail herself
of tUe opportunity that will soon pre
sent itself. Atlanta is fully alive to
the advantages of the encampment and
she proposes to do allin her power to
capture it. I can’t see why Athens
doesn’t stand as bright a chance for it,
if proper measures are adopted, as At
lanta. VVe have an excellent situation
and the environments for a military en
campment are unexcelled. Our atmos-
plieae is pure and wholesome and our
localiou is convenient of access. It
will cause, au increase of 5,000 in our
population and will bring the city into
wore prominence.”
THE REQUIREMENTS.
If Athens is anxious to capture the en
campmeut there must be some concert
ed action among the merchants and
citizens generally. Athens’ bid must
have >uflieient weight with the advisory
board. The competition will be hot
ana lively' and the bids made bv Au
gusta, Atlanta, Brunswick and other
other cities desirous of securing it
will, of course, be very strong. There
are some strong inducements for the
encampment to be located here, and
what Ihe city needs is a clear, compre
hensive presentation of her advantages.
Tbe action of the board will in a
material extent, be shaped by the na
ture of the surroundings of a - compet
ing city, so far as health and accommo
dations are concerned.
A GOLDEN OPPORTUNITY.
Let Athens avail herself of this splen
did opportunity to secure the encamp
ment. It will be of immense advantage
to her in a great many respects. The
increase in population would alone
indemnify her for any efforts she puts
forward to get it.

The occasional display of fireworks
only serves the purpose of preventing hia

* A Place for Talent-
In nearly all regulated lines of indus
try at present the advertising man is one
of the most important adjuncts of a
business. And on the tlie other hand
the advertising department of & first
class newspaper is not what it used to
be, but is instead fast becoming an in
teresting feature of all enterprising jour
nals. Formerly the prevailing idea
among the uninitiated was that the
talented, the best, most versatile and
most ingenious writers and artists were
all employed in the news department
How nearly correct this idea may have
been need not be stated, but that such is
not the case now may.be N seen by r
perusal of the “ads” of any flourishing
papier. The competitions between the
merchants and between the papers’
agents have become so great that the
great wholesale and retail houses of the
large cities employ talented men at big
salaries to attend to their advertising
alone, and the men who want the best
positions in the counting rooms of news
papers must combine fine business quali
fications with the talent that wins suc
cess in the editorial chair.—Yenowine’s
News.
Advertising Necessary to Success.
The merchant or manufacturer who
does not advertise his goods cannot suc
ceed. Of late newspaper advertising has
become a distinct trade in itself, and all
over the country leading concerns pay
fabulous prices for men who are skillful
in writing catchy advertisements. In
many large cities there are men earning
from $3,000 to $10,000 a year to write ad
vertisements. This fact in itself shows
advertising pays.
If people interested in this subject
will investigate it for themselves they
will find that the leading, advertisers in
The Plain Dealer are the merchants who
have, the best stores, the best assort
ments of goods and who sell at the most
reasonable prices. Such merchants do a
much larger business than merchants
who do not advertise: consequently they
turn their goods over more quickly and
can afford to give better prices. Close
buyers appreciate this. What is the
moral? He who advertises the most
judiciously succeeds the best, aud the
buyers who seek the best bargains
patronize such merchants.—Cleveland
