The Democrats of Cleveland
extend to these new enterprises
a hearty welcome, and wish them
such success as they will merit.

A Doubtful Experiment.
The appointment, of Judjjc
Gresham to the first place in our
nations cabinet, is a doubtful, and
therefore dangerous experiment.
He ie not, nor ha* he ever been a
Democrat. While we, entertain
no fears that any direct or volun
tary act ol his will jeapordi/.e the
interest of the Democratic party,
his appointment is very encour
aging to the “Mugwump” «l«-
mant at the North, and infuses
nowr life into the independent
ranks of the South.
The Atlanta Constitution in an
able editorial on this subject,
deals with the it fairly and square
ly, from wnieh wo clip tho follow
ing: “Democratic newspapers
eadorsing this appointment in
cordial and unqualified terms
will find that they ait giving aid
and encouragement to iudepend-
ontism in their own states. Here
in (leorgia, we smashed factional
revolt by exerting the influence
of the organized Democracy, and
in Alabama the same result was
obtained after a hard struggle.
We do not want to go through
the same fight again. If we stick
to the time-honored party policy,
w# cun avoid such strife, but the
slightest encouragement and en
dorsement of iiulependcntism
will breed trouble, and we hope
to see nothing of the kind, from
the leaders of the party down to
its humblest followers.”
"If the report is true that tho
flour manufacturer* ef the north
west arc forming a monster trust
for the control of the prices of
bread in thi* country, the sooner
the new President calls nil extra
session of congress to throttle the
life of every one of the infamous
trusts the hotter it will he for his
party and the national welfare.—
Journal.
If the farmers want to he “in
it” next full, they had better
plant a deversified crop. The
cotton acreage this year will be
unusually large, and that means
!> cent cotton again.
Torn. Cobb Jackson, well
known throughout tho state t.s a
brilliant young lawyer, and tho
scion of noble line of ancestry,
committed suicide at bis fathers
residence in Atlanta last week.
Miss Julia Force, of Atlanta,
shot and killed two of her sister*
last Saturday, She is a mono
maniac, whose delusion is that
her brothers and mother slighted
her, and were her eacmies.
A Week of Crime.
Last week every paper was
full of aeeouuts of terrible mur
ders, suicide*, daring robberies
und bold thefts.
Why so many fatalities from
murderous bn nils, should happen
so close together, aiul so many
flagrant thefts and robberies
should occur almost siinultnne
ously, causes the thoughtful to
pause and consider—ferret out, if
lie cun, the reason for these great
paroxysms of crime, which oeou
mindly visit our country.
That crime is paroxysmal, his
tory and the criminal dockets of mon o
our court* plainly show ; “crime
waves” roll over our country
from shore to shore, as surely as
a cold wave signal causes us to
shiver in advance.
Astrologers affirm that u* the
moon affects the tides, it is equal
ly sure that the great planets af
fect our lives, control our actions
and rule our every passion, w heth
er for love or lnlte, peace or war,
loving kindness, or red handed
murder. But this is beyond our
ken. Wo simply know the facts,
and an attempt to explain leads
into dangerous ground.
Mr. W. 1>. Crowley, a travel
ing sulesmnn in the employ of
Mu rah, Smith and Marsh, of At
lanta, killed himself last Friday
by shooting himself with apistoi.
Lewis Kedwinc, the defaulting
cashier of tIn* Gate City Hank, of
Atlanta, is behind tlie burs for
his crime. 11 is shortage amounts

New Enterprises.
Verily, Cleveland, White coun
ty, and all north-east Georgia
is soon to boom. iho fame of
tho section will reach tho utter
most parts of tho earth, and these
new enterprises will enrich their
promoters, and make them a
mime that will stand to the end
of nil time.
Under the able management of
Mr. Allison Smith, well known
in certain places a» closely con
nected with a party now defunct,
there is shortly to be established
here, a mammoth mercantile stock
company, backed by home capi
tal, innuaged by White county
financiers, and strictly'Jfor the
benefit of the relict of the lute
People’s party.
But that is not all; Cleveland
and White county will soon have
another newspaper, under the ed
itorship of one W. B. Woodward,
known and remembered well
around Cleveland, as the erst
while editor of tho l’ltouitEss, be
fore it was taken in charge by its
present managers.
In Mr. Woodward's own lan

TEMPERANCE COLUMN.
Tbt Estertalamtst list Friday mat.
The Cleveland Temperance So
ciety gave n most, interesting en
tertainment, Friday night. The
contestants for the Demorest
medal, all did well. The result
of the committee appointed, was
u tie between Miss Nannie Car-
roll and Muster ('has. Kcnimer,
after which, a second committee
w:u appointed, and thetwnspoke
Hgrin. The committee decided
iu favor of Master Kcnimer, who
received the medal, from Bro. M.
L. Underwood with an appropri
ate address.
Several volunteer speakers were
listened to with great interest.
Miss Callie Bell brought tears to
the eyes of many listners by the
manner in which she rendered
“I’oorhouse Nan.” Miss Hell
highly gifted as an elocutionist.
Perhaps the most pleasing feat
ures of the evenings entertain
ment, were the song* by tbcclmii
and a solo and duct by Dr. and
Mrs. F. B. Sutton, which was
pionounecd by all who listened,
as wonderfully sweet and touch
ing. Miss Fannie Kcnimer sang
"Out in the snow” in a ma'qier
that held the audience spell-bound
as her sweet, clear voice filled the
church w ith its melody.
The contestants for the next
medal will speak some time this
month, at the regular entertain
ment. of the society.
It is with great pleasure that
wo clip from the St. Clair llepuh-
licun, published at Dr. Sutton’:
old home, the following ootnpli
mentury not ice of n temperance ar
ticle from hi* pen, which appear
ed in the PitooitEss, some weeks
ago:
‘ 1 lie Progiess from Cleveland
Ga., comes to our table with an
»ble article on temperance from
the pen of Dr. F. B. Sutton, well
known as a practicing physician
here before going South. He
first shows how “the evil of in
temperance is one that corrupts
the body politic, pollutes the
church, demoralizes society, and
ruins the individual who tampers
with it. This he doe* in u true
spirit of philanthropy. He says:
“I would not misrepresent though
I plead a ease against a culprit
that I hate. ’ Farther oa lie says,
“Suppose our country had been
an Fdeu up to the year inya into
which the slimy, deceitful ser
pent had never drawn his iuis**r-
ablo length, and that we were "in
formed he was on his way to take
up his aliede with us, to entail on
our neighbors and offspring all
the evils above mentioned, mould
not the citizens of the country
lise on masse and meet him at the
border to stay his course?” lie
doses his article, which, but fol
ds length and our crowded col
umns we would give entire, with
tlu-se ssge words; “Praying is
all right, talking against it is all
right, but doing is more effectual,
and twenty-five determined, con
scientious men can suppress the
evil within the borders of White
countv.”

There is very little sickness in
