The Demcratic Doctrine, From (he National Democratic Plat form Atlojtlctl At t'liicago .1 ni,e 22ud, 1892. “Wc denounce the Republican legisla tion known as the Sherman act of 1890 as a cowardly makeshift, fraught with possi> bilitics of danger in the which should make all of its supporters, as well as its author anxious for its speedy repeal. We hold to the use of both goth gold and silver as the standard money of the coun tiy, and to the coinage of both gold and silver without discrimiuationg against ei ther metal or charge for mintage, but the dollar unit, of coinage of both metals must be equal intrinsic and exchangeable value, or he adjusted through international agree* menl or by such safeguards of legislation as shall insure the maintenance of the pari ty of the two metals and the equal power of every dollar at all times in the market poyiMflnl nf iloLio, uutl tdc mand that all paper currency shall he kept at par with and redeemable ; n such coin. We insist upon this as especially necessary for the protection of the fanners and la boring classes, the first and most defense less victims oT unstable money and a fluc tuating currency. If the editor sometimes in an un guarded moment says things you don,t like, why, spare lmn from crucifixion because of the many pleasant things he has said about you. Remember that you never brought a watermelon to this office without getting a write up in a ten line local. You never treated him to ice cream or invited him out to dinner, without being rewarded in the same generous measures. You may be a good deal slower than the Nancy Hanks, but in re turning thanks for benefits received, the editor always speaks of you as big hearted and progressive. When ever a birth occurs in your family the earliest congratulations come Irom the editor, in the case of death the first words of sympathy come from the same source ; and in the event of marriage no one more joy - fully samples the wedding cake. Your editor is always speaking a go >d woid for your town and boom ing its enterprises in season and out of season. From the cradle to the grave the press is close beside you in all the changing vicissitudes of this life, guarding in the very best and bravest wav the welfare of all the people. So just be easy on the editor. Doubtless he doesn't think like you on all questions but wouldthis e a monotonous world if all people thought alike? Therefore be respetiul to the irdepen dent editor who doesn't think alike, and has the courage to stand up and say so. He is worth a whole camp meeting of editors tha s a fraidto say 6methir.g that ought to be said be cause it might hurt somebody’s feelings. He will be found guard ing your rights at times when cow ards skulk in the dai k, and to his brave heart and fearless pen the country must look for the pres ervation ot its liberties. For after all, the almighty press is the power behind the throne, that makes pol itical parties and mould3 public ■entimen , . along every line. RESOLUTIONS. BY THE BUTTS COUNTY TACHERS IN STITUTE We ( a committee selected by the Butts county Teachers’ in Institute assembled, to prepare some resolu tions on subjects more directly con corning the teachers of common schools, beg leave to submit the {(slowing: Ist. We approve the law crea ting the Institute as a wise and economical measure, and the most practical method ot normal train ing for teachers cor.cievable, hut we are opposed to so much of the law as makes the attendance compul sory, regarding that feature as a re flection upon the teachers and we makers to repeal that portion of the law. -fid, We ask the legislature to provide for the quarterly payment of teachers. 3rd, \\ e do not approve the Guinn hill, commonly known as the ‘ ui lormity text book hill’'for the following reasons : (a) “The com mission as provided by the said hill is composed, in Dart, of state officers whose political affinity would rather detract from their fitness for the work to he done, (b) The bill imposes upon our over worked stale school commissioner. (c) Under the bill we would have too much of a sameness of text books. “V .liety is the spice of life.” (and) The hill makes room for a monopo ly and an imposition upon our peo ple, in that, aspiring educators would be denied that individuality which is the key to progress, and would have to conform their vvo.-ks on education to the ideas of the book commission or fail, whereas, “Competition is the life of trade, (e) The Dresent law allowing coun ty boards of education to select text books is far superior to the pro posed law, in that it secures the purpose of the bill, uniformity in text hoi ks, to a sufficient degree for all practical purposes, and does not lesson competition, thereby making monoply impossible. 4th.

A Few Valuable Points for the “Uninitiated” No Longer the Proper Caper for Everybody to Kiss the Bride. Almost every day come in our mail inquiries relative to tiie eti quette of weddings. Possibly the general ignorance on this point comes from the fact that it is the first offense of the writer, there fore he or she cannot be expected to be quite au fait in a matter which it takes time to become ac customed to. In answer to the many anxious ones we will say that if the wed ding takes place in the morning the groom does not wear a dress coat. He wears a formal morning suit, and wears gloves or not, as he chooses. A best man is usually chosen, be being the groom's brother or most intimate friend. It is his duty to follow the hus band to the altar, standing at his right hand, a little behind him, and holding his hat during the service. The best man pays the clergyman’s fee and returns to the house either by himself or with the maid of honor. The bridegroom, if he so pleases, may present the bridesmaids with some pretty souvenir of the occa sion, such as a fan, bracelet or locket. He pays for the wedding ring and the bride’s bouquet. Cards and carriages, as well as the wedding feast, are furnished by the bride’s parents. The bride drives to the church with her father, who gives her away. Her mother and relatives, who have preceded her, sit in the front pews. Her bridesmaids await her in the chancel of the church. The bridal procession is gener ally formed of the ushers walking two and two, then the bridesmaids and last the bride on her father’s arm. Sometimes a maid of honor walks with or just before the bride, in which case the father forms no part of the cortege. On reaching the altar the ushers and bridesmaids separate to right and left, leaving a space for the bridal pair. The bridegroom advances and takes his bride by the right hand and the clergyman proceeds with the ceremony. Husband and wife walk down the aisle together, the others fol lowing. Formerly brides removed the whole glove. Now the finger of the left hand one is adroitly cut so that the ring can be easily ad justed without removing the entire glove. All brides should write a per sonal note of thanks for each gift, whether it be large or small. After an hour and a half with her guests the bride retires to don her traveling gown, usually accom panied by her most intimate friends. WKon silo roturnu olio is met at the foot of the stairs by the groom, who has also changed his costume, and the good-byes are said, the rice and satin slippers thrown, and it is all over. Wedding;cake is no longer sent about, but neatly packed in boxes and placed where guests can take it on leaving the house. Such is the etiquette of a church wedding, the] refreshments served being either elaborate or simple, as the hostess chooses. The bride is no longer kissed by everybody, only the very intimate friends being al lowed that privilege. If we have omitted any point that has proven vexed one to expectant bridal pairs, pray pardon the omission and let us know wherein we have failed, and once again the pen will be taken up on so important a sub ject.—Philadelphia Times.

A College which is a Rare asid Itlurked exception to the ('iiwor* thy concerns Which Afflict the Country • GEORGIA BUSINESS COLLEGE, Wyatt & Martin, Macon Ga. It is nee Hess to 3ay to our read ers that our investigation of the Business College wc mwreview war conducted upon the lines laid down in the past. In this case as in ail others, no charges were made, no gifts accepted, no advertisements solicited. The only interests con sulted have i>eeu those of onr read ers. who asked honest, unpreju diced advice concerning the rtla tive merits ot the various commer cial schools which seek the patron age of the people. This informa tion cannot be obtained through college catalogues or paid write ups. Devoid of all such features is the lepon, herewith given. We single out and indorse this high grade ol institution upon its own high merits alone. We commend it unquali fiedly to those who would discrimi nate between a business college which really fits its graduates for the highest positions of trust and employment in the business world ; and the u ebusiness like affairs which almost cast discredit, upon the very name of ‘business col lege.” The establishment we now re view stands out better and brighter by reason ol the contrast it offers in superiority genuine merit and trust worthiness. It, is ably conducted, splendidly equipped, and by all rights of supreme and inherent worth takes front rank. Its facul ty is above criticism. For some past days, it has been the subject of investigation by a trained and trusted .editoral correspondent and as a result of such unbaised ex amination, we do not hesitate to sin gle it out as an exemplar; arid to heartily endorse it to every reader, who desires the highest practical education at the lowes possible cost.

He is perfectly sound and trained to work in single and double harneis. Ho is a dark chestnut brown, ball faced.

He was brought by me to this state Tom northern Illinois for my own use, but owing <o a change in business I have decided to sell him.
