A Fine Artist! .
It is a conceded fact that Mr. J. S.
Young, of Rome, is the best .artist in
north Georgia, While in that city a few
days ago we had the pleasure of looking
through his studio, in the Shorter block.
His crayons are simply elegant, and re
flect great credit on the artist. His pho
tograph specimens are also very tine,
being oue of the largest and finest we
have ever seen. He takes great pleasure
in showing visitors his specimens, which
he is justly proud of. We suppose a
great many of our readers will go to
Rome on tlie 4rh, and we would advise
;dl those who need anything in his line
to give him a call. JLlis prices are very

TRA YE LI X G COMMITTEES OF THE
HOUSE AXD SEX A TE.
If you will read the following, copied
from the Chicago Inter-Ocean, you will
see where the money gees, and who
spends it. “Retrenchment and reform”
are only heard on the stump, and these
senators and representatives throw abroad
the money of the people with so lavish a
hand that the republicans even rebuke:
“It has become the custom nowadays, when
these “princes of the blood” desire a sumtnex
tour, to request some committee to be appointed
to go in the vicinity of the spot they desire to
visit, and as soon as it is granted, off they go in
a line Pullman car, iu which they travel, eat a.id
sleep at government expense for a couple of
months. Unless there is a great change in pres
ent tactics, xve will have to w histle for a govern
ment before many years. No free people will
put up with so much pretension in their public
servants and with so much expense, which the
labor of this country is forced to pay.”
A committee to inquire into tlie “de
pression of labor” has been appointed
and $2,000 appropriated to paj’ for tue
trip. If you will inquire at the door of
the senrte finance committee where Sen
ator Bayard and Senator Gordon stran
gled the silver bill and tlie trade dollar
bill, you need go no farther; and the
$2,000 might be left in the poor laborer’s
pocket. Senator Gordon had just re
turned from a junketing tour.to Saratoga,
New York and West Point, for which
the government paid him $5 a day ad
ditional to his present salary and he. felt
like the world was in a swing and he
was swinging high. Away with re
trenchment and reform. Twelve travel
ling committees in the senate and the
same in the house! God save us from
ourselves!
ABSENTEES FROM CONGRESS.
We copy an article to-day from the
Atlanta Dispatch that is to tlie point.
There is barely a quorum left in Wash
ington now. It is too hot a place for
most of these lordly gentlemen, and they
are gandering all over tlie land in pursuit
of pleasure and fun,’ we suppose.
Messrs. Blount and Gordon quit Wash
ington some time ago, and are taking
their ease at home. We suppose they
desire to impress tlie legislature with
some of their ideas, and are at home to
look after political management for
neither of them are ill, nor h ive they
sickness in their families. We would
like to ask them if they are tired of stav
ing their constituenees; if so, there will
he no difficulty in finding men who tie
not so fatigued. We know men who
have a much better excuse than cither
can offer, who have never deserted their
posts. We are little disgusted with such
indifference to the public welfare.
In looking over the Congressional Re
cord we find more than one-third of tlie
congressmen absent from the house, and
as great a portion in the senate. Those
xv tj< are al>snt Uy reason of person al ill
ness, or illness in their families, are cer
tainly excusable. The rest are nat.
When a man’s private business becomes
so imperative that he must neglect his
duties at Washington to attend to it, lie
should resign and allow other men not so
busy, to take his plaee. This may sound
hard, but it is just. Other members who
are more conscientious, or who have less
private business, stay at their posts, and
there should be some regulation to pre
vent absenteeism, tiiat these faithful
members may keep a working quorum to
transact the business of the country.
Last Friday the speaker was asked it so
many leaves of absence were granted,
would there be a quorum left. He re
plied, “he could not say definitely.”
'I be scene between Lamar and Conk
ling would not have occurred if the dem
ocrats had had a quorum to pass the bill
which caused the prolonged night ses
sion.
There were but thirty-six democratic
senators in the city—it took thirty-nine
to make the vote a success for the party.
Asa result from so much continued
wrangling, we had that disgraceful epi
sode and a volley of harsh, bitter words
to further inflame the sectional strife
already blazing high. Even’Mr. Bayard
was provoked into an undignified har
angue with Blaine—became forgetful of
she high-born courtesy with which he is
credited.
If this absenteeism is not checked, it
will grow out of all proportions and be
come insupportable. Some members are
in Europe—some are at watering places—
some are pleading law cases —some are
making commencement speeches and the
vice president himself is enjoying rural
life in northern New York. We keep an
eye on those who wander and preiegri
nate, and we also notice those who re
main at their posts of duty. We do con
fess, and we are ashamed to say, some
southern members are decidedly more
ornamental than useful; an I their name ,
are recorded ab>ent twice to where tlie\
vote once in the Record. We advise tlie
speaker and president pro. term, to send
out a peremptory order for their recall,
and then proceed to business.

A Sjxlemliil Organ to Baffle.
We have been advertising for several
weeks a splendid White & Wilcox organ
to raffle, the price of which is $200.00.
We propose to ratfle it at $2.00 a chance
with only sixty chances, putting the
price of the organ down thereby at $120.-
00. It is a splendid instrument and can
be seen at the postoffice. That it is what
it is represented to be, we copy the fol
lowing extracts:
From Prof. R. M. Mclntosh, profes
sor of music at Emory college: “Send
us White and Wilcox organ, style 100,
for our commencement. I think that
the best of all reed organs for family.
Never saw the equal to it, etc.”
From Prof. Schoeller, Dalton female
college: “It is the best I ever tried.”
From Prof G. 0. Looney, Jonesboro:
“All seemed well pleased iu selecting
the White & Wilcox organ in preference
to , and I think we were very for
tunate in forming an acquaintanceship
w ith the White ■& Wilcox organ before
purchasing elsewhere.”
If any one desires a good organ at all
they can have a chance to try their luck
with two dollars by applying at the book
store of VV. H. Wikle & ('o. The in
strument is guaranteed to be all what is
claimed for it. Gall atWikle’s and ’• ke

t sssville Regaled and Benefited.
To The Free, Press :—Allow me to say
; that it was given out, not published, that
Col. J. I. Wright, of Rome, would deliv-
Ie -a lecture on Free Masonry at the Meth
-1 o list church in Cassville on the night of
j the 4th inst.
At the appointed hour, Col. Wright
• put in his appearance, and was met by a
very good audience, for a small place like
Cassville and vicinity and w ithout any
j extensive notice having been given.
At the proper time, Col. Wright intro
duced himself by saying he was not here
for any love or desire for speech-making,
; or to make any effort at oratory or elo
quence; but had come here from his
; home, wearied and tired, with the hope
and desire of delivering some practical
truth for the good ot society generally,
and especially for the benefit of the or
der of Free Masons. In this hope I feel
assured Col. Wright has not been disap
pointed, for it has not sehlein, it ever,
| fallen to the good luck of the w riter to
have listened to a lecture, or an address
upon any subject, that was so replete
with good sense, and sound practical
truths, and l am glad to say that Col.
Wright was attentively lPtene l to
throughout, and his lecture was well re
ceived, by an attentive, and an apprecia
tive audience, and 1 have many reasons
to believe licit much good was done here,
and especially tor the ancient order.
Without any attempt or design of try
ing to quote or tell the many good things
Col. Wright said, (for it would he impos
sible if! had such a purpose, and they
can never be fully known, only by those
w hose good luck it was to hear them,) I
will presume, however, that Col. Wright
set forth in a strong and clear manner the
three great and fundamental tenets of the
order of Free Masons, “Brotherly Love,
Relief and Truth,” and then with great
force and earnestness h * laid down the
bur cardinal virtues of the order, “Fort
tilde, Prudence, Temperance an 1 Jus
tice,” an I eloquently explained and urg
'd upon Ihe audience, and to the brothers
* resent, the keeping and practicing t h • -e
rent viriueiu I heir daily walks. He
ten happily pointed to the bible as being
he chart and guide of all good m asons
id of all good men of every name and
order. Suffice it ro say that the lecture
was admitted by all wh > heard it to be a
-.rand and good thing, and 1 believe if
’ol Wright could be induced to deliver
this lecture in every community in the
a>uuty, nay more, in the state, much
good would be done by it; so mote it be.
