We do not believe that all the people are fooled at this this time, but we arc anxious to see the great farce that is now go ing on in congress brought to an end. The curtain lias been rung down on it in the house, and we want to see it brought to an end in senate. It is a wretched piece of business and the sooner "finis” is written against it the better for honest politics. We have never seen a more de liberate or a more desperate at tempt to fooi the people. A more dishearteningspectatlecould hard ly be conceived. In plain view of the public, senators who have vot ed for bimetallism with their mouths, are proceeding to kill it by ! their acts.

They denounce monometallism with an eloquence that wakes the echoes and then sit quietly by and see it fasten its coils on the people Shouting forth their fidelity to the people, they join in with the most dangerous and tiie boldest attack on the property and prosperity of the people that this country has ever seen. They’ talk with democ racy on their tongues and goidol- atry in their hearts. They speak for the people and act in behalf of Wa'l street. We arc sincere, therefore, in de claring that we are anxious to see the end of this stupendous farce. The Sherman law has aii'orded a screen for those who are anxious hould stage so that the great issue n a/ be squarely joined and fairly fought out. Wo do not think the people will be deceived by those who talk fur bimetallism and vote for the s gle gold standard. If the people do not see the flash of the Joab blade as it descends in the hands of such men as John Sherman, Senator Hoar and some others, who speak for bimetallism and vote for monometallism, they are bigger fools than we take them to be.

September 4ih 1893. J. D. Hargrove. Ordinary D. C. Tom Watson Here. WHAT CATTED II"? The Madisonian says: The pro posed legislation against holding any county office more than two terms, scents to be gaining favor throughout the State. The sug gestion la a good one, we think, be cause some influential citizens sometimes have been known to hold office until they thought they could take the homestead on it. It will remove.a certain set in many counties who have had their heads ■in the public corn crib from almost time immemorial.” Jutke Clark Resigned. Judge Marshall J. Clarke, Judge Cf the Atlanta circv.it for the past eight years and whose decisions have been looke 1 upon with almost ns much confidence of their cor rectness as those of the higher court, has resigned, his resignation to take effect oil the loth inst. He was probably tiie ablest Superior court Judge in the Stn*e and the bench can ill a Herd to lose his services. He gives as his reason that he is tired of the worry and responsibilities of the bench ana desires to practice law. Before he resigned he decided that Steve Ryan was not in con tempt of court and had no money that he could turn over to a re- . ceiver and ordered his release from i bond. Put ail End to The Farce? The senate should come to a ■ vote as soon as possible on the •■pen in'" :,i| i *'• '' (l ’ s 'l'‘ pockets have b come too full, Uaw! Every day’s report staves off { hereby caUjin>f , , eral lill!incia i ■ iuc main iooue uiiJ aueligtneus Ule Now that the tightness of mon ey circulation is being loosened somewhat, it would he gratifying to thousands of people if some one would rive up and tell what caused the aforesaid tightness. A man is said to be tight when h » has imbibed too'much strong drink; a shoe is tight when it is too small for the foot, yet both are tight because they are too full. Perhaps the tightness of money circulation was caused by the fact that the national banks are too full of financial power, accorded them by the federal government. If this be true our eon gressmen should bo exceedingly careful not to vote those banks any further power. We might go further and gay that the privileges of state banks could reasonably be increas ed by repeal ins' the prohibitory tax on state bank issues. If being too full causes tightness, then the stringency may be in part due to t-.e fact that the coffers of protected manufacturers and stock speculators are dispro portionately full of currencv, or interest bearing, non-taxable evi dence of wealth. If this be true, then a taxon incomes would come in just right to relieve the unequal pressure. Being too full of privileges and profits, the protected manufactur ers should be brought to the posi tion of selling their goods on mer it, and in competition direct with other goods of like value. With a tariff for revanm only, tire extra profits that a protective tariff now accords American manufacturers would remain in the pockets of consumers, and there would be greater opportunity- fora gtneral circulation of currency. They say that the purchase of silver bullion under the Sherman law caused the United State Treas ury to become too full of such bullion, and llierelore financial tightness resulted. This law is about to be repealed, and we will see soon what this theory is worth. Others say that the decreased price of silver has made the coun try too full of idle silver miners, and that this pressure can be re lieved only by a law providing for the free coinage of silver. Such a law is not likely to bq enacted by this session of congress, and by comparison we can soon deter mine the value of this demand. It is said- that the lack of confi dence lias caused people to with draw their money from banks, rnd bv decreasing the circulation some -b> ' tightness Yesterday beihg the day appoint ed for Mr. Watson to speak at this place, a large crowd commenced gathering early in the morning and by tlie hour for the speaking to commence the seats erected in front of the speakers stand out at tiie springs Were well tilled. A little before ten o’clock Mr. Watson made his appearance and soon after took the stand to expa tiate upon the principles of the re form he and his colleagnes are ad vocating before the people. Mr. Watson's appearance was greeted with cheers by those of his party, while the democrats, many of whom were attracted there out of curiosity, maintained a dig nified silence, waiting to hear the man who has created such a furore throughout the country. Mr. Watson spoke until after eleven o'clock and might have been speaking yet had not a heavy rain stopped the proceedings. It is useless to'give bis speech in full, suffice it to say it was a repetition of former ones. He of course poured hot shot into the democrats, principally the alliance democrats, classing Gov ernor Northern among the latter. He told his followers that this gen tleman had gone bacK on the prin ciples upon which he was elected and even went so far as to state that the governor had said strike your wife in the face; strike your children, but save the dear old democratic party, (hisown words.) We agree with tlie honorable gov ernor in the latter God save the democratic party^-froin being trampled upon by this class of pol iticians. The governor, however is not the man to even give thought to such as tiie former. Mr. Watson dwelt only briefly on the silver question, regretting that his time would not allow of a clearer discussion of this impor tant issue. In conclusion we must say that we feel very thankful for the at tentive and quiet hearing given the speaker by both sides, and we feel sure that more benefit will be derived by the staunch old party from this conduct than the turbid, demonstrative elements often to be found at other places.—Cordelean. An Attraction For Ilis House. "H'm f said the stranger, regard ing tho young man who called at tho hotel in answer to the advertisement, “you are an actor, you say.’’ “Yes,” was the reply. “The crit ics, however’’ “Oh, I don’t care about the crit ics,’’ returned the portly gentleman, whereat the young man nodded ap proval. “Wliat parts do you take?” “Juvenile.” “Eli ?—* eh ?—children’s?” gasped the interviewer. “Why, no,” said the applicant in a surprised tone, “the young lover." “Oh. yes, yes,” assoate.l the other, smiling, “that's just it. Are you open for an engagement—I might say sev eral engagements—for the summer?” “I am,” was the hearty answer. “At, say, §25 a week and all ex penses?” “Well,” returned the stage lover, “I should say so. Are—are’’—tho tone implied mingled hope and doubt —“are you a manager?” “I ani.” said the elder, beaming, “and I'll take you until the 1st of October. All that you will have to do is to act your regular part, and you may fill several engagements. I am a summer hotel manager.”—Har per's Bazar. A riea For Small Attentions. If men only knew how much their wives appreciate the little attentions that they consider toe small to think about, there would be more of tho courtesies that marked the antenup tial period manifested in the every day routine life that-comes after marriage. A man, when he has succeeded in winning a woman, calmly lays aside all those delightful little ways that, if he only knew it, did so much to captivate her, and with the air of a man who has run after a street car he settles down and reads his paper without having all idea that she is eating her heart out because of the absence of those trifling attentions that mean so much to her. Listen, all ye men, to a wife who knows how much woman's nature is alike and how happy we nil become over little kindnesses tbat may not in your eyes be worth considering, but which to us speak of a Bentiment that has not died out in marriage and a polite regard for the wife that is as great as that shown the fiancee.— Philadelphia Times.
