The Demcratic Doctrine,
From I lie National Democratic Plat
form Adopted At Chicago June
22i,d, 1892.
We denounce the Republican legisla
tion known as the Sherman act of 1890 as
a cowardly makeshift, fraught with possi
bilities 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 gotli gold and
silver as the. standard money of the coun
try, and to the coinage of both’gold and
silver without discriminationg 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 be 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
and in the payment, of debts; and we de
mand that all paper currency shall be kept
at par w ith and redeemable ; n such coin.
We insist upon this as especially necessary
for the protection of the farmers and la
boring classes, the first and most defense
less victims of unstable money and a fluc
tuating currency.
THE AWKWARD DOLLAR.
It lias been suggested by some
writers on the subject that if our
government put 100 cents worth
of silver in the amerlcau dollar
it would make the dollar an awk
ward buldy thing. We opine
that this class of writers belong
to the silver mining crowd, or in
other words are controlled bj
the owners of silver mines who
are growing vastly rich at the
expense of other classes in this
country
The awkwardness or bulkiness
of our silver dollar is not what
concerns the masses of the peo
in this government. These class
es, who compose the laboring
people, are not asking whether
the silver dollar shall be awkward
or genteel in appearence. The
real value ol the dollar is what
concerns them.
Which is the better for the peo
ple, the .bulky silver dollar con
taining 100 cents worth of silver
and on a par with the gold in pur
chasing power, or the gonteel sil
ver dollar that claims to be such
and yet contains but litttle over
the halt of 100 cents worth of sil
ver?
The people of this country
want a silver dollar that will
stand as a silver dolar anywhere,
and that will have the purchasing
power of a genuine dollar every
where. The toiling sons of this
government, who are its sturdy
supporters, and who earn
their bread by the sweat
ol their face, can see no
good reason why the government
shall not make its silver dollar
worth one hundred con s as is
proclaimed on their face whether
they would be bulky or not.
Then if congress decides that
the government shall go into the
free coinage-of-silver-business let
provide that every silver dollar
coined shall contain 100 cents
worth ot silv
“HE’S A GEORGIAN.*''
\\ e were recently a passenger
upon a crowded street car when a
iadv entered. But one man of the
■many aboard quickly arose and
tendered the lady his seat. Some
one else upon the car remarked, i ot
altogether in complimentary tones,
“lie's a Georgian/’
What a teeling of pride that re
maik. intended ls a sneer, caused
to arise in our breast. Yes, he was
a Georgian to the manner born; a
son of the grand common we llth
which, though it may not bnast of
its millionaires or its money kings,
it’s railroad magnates and it’s men
ol great physic al prowess, can ioek
with pride upon the gentlemen it
produces. Gentlemen in the tru
est sense of the word, not men in
togeiell who are kept so busy with
their own appearances, and who
are so concieted and selfish as to re
fuse to discomfort themselves when
ladies are to be made comfortable
thereby.
Georgians are gen'lemen and it
matters not how sneeringly they
may be said to be such they will
continue so.* Otlur states aud sec
tions may lay claim to all the men
they want to who become distin
guished for their great wealth or
their handsome appearances but so
long as Georgians are duly courte
ou3 to the frailer and fairer sex and
deport themselves with becoming
unselfishness towards them and all
around them we will honor Geor
gians and he prouder of the dis
tinctions tliev thus win than any
they could possibly win in any oth
er way.
Let it be the mark of a Georgian
that he is a courteous gentleman no
no matter where you find him. It
will be the mark of a hog in human
shape to hear any one eneer at him
for 6uch demeanor of that as
that of the Georgian-genileman who
brought forth the remark that heads
this article. A’e are prouder of old
Georgia lor having over heard it.
We are determined to ever cast our
lot among her citizens. There is
nojrisk to run in being thr®wn
with men who are courteous to la
dies.—Oglethorpe Echo.

WHAT A NEWSPAPER MUST
BE TO BE SUCCESSFUL.
A newspayer to be successful
must concider the tastes and wants
of many kind of people. Its field,
therefore, is a broad one. It is not
expected that every one who takes a
newspaper will read or be enteres
ted in every thing that is published
ai.d tne only limit to the publisher
ot a genial newspaper, therefore is
that of decency. It is due to eyery
respectable person who takes a pa
per that its columns shall not be in
part, or largely filled with nasti
ness ; but outside of this, the field is
a broad one, and every part of it
must have attention. To make up
a paper for any special class of read
ers would be an easy (ask; but to
prepare it for the various classes
classes above the level of those who
prefere filth to anything else, is far
more difficult undertaking; vet this
is what the managers of a first
-class paper are expected to do and
what they aim to accomplish.
NO FRILLS‘“ON THIS.
From The Agusta Evening News.
General Gordon declares to the
editor of The Griffin News that if
congress refuses to come up square
ly and promptly to the relief of tie
people by the enactment of laws Jo
that end, that he would
announce upon the flocr
of the senate that he would
never again raise his voice in sup
port of the party, though it would
kill him politically and otherwise.
Democracy, he said, now has the
grandest opportunity ever offered
a national party of benefitting the
people, and if it shirked the duty it
would die eternally.

ENJOYING VACATION.
With all my pleasures of the past month
thoughts of my kind friends in Jackson
have mingled, aud I hope these summer
days have held as much enjoyment for
them as has been my share.
A two weeks’ visit to Atlanta proved
even more enjoyable than former visits to
this enterestiug city. We attended the
Chautauqua and derived much benefit
from the fine lectures of Dr. Talmage and
other eminent lecturers, but more than all
did wc enjoy the delightful concerts given
by J/adame Decca, the celebrated Sopra
no and the Schubert Quartette of male
voices said to be the finest in the world.
To each encore they repondt and with
some simple familiar air; rendering with
exquisite harmony the songs of long ago,
aud when Madame Deddo, after a beauti
ful Italian song, which displayed to ad
vantage her wonderful voice and filled the
immense Chautauqua tent with melody, in
response to a unanimous incore sang
‘•Dixie” the audience was v/ild and she
was recalled again and again.
Then there was splendid music from
the chorus of a thousand voices, drilled
especially for these occasions under the
directions of Prof. Case.
Prof. G’Donnely’s Monday afternoon
Organ recitals and a number of other
musical treats were additional pleasures to
our visit, then there were rides out to the
different parks, boat rides at East lake and
very many enjoyments such as the Gate
City only can furnish.
The exceedingly warm weather induced
us to seek the mountain breezes of Ma
rietta which we found to be a most charm
ing place, cool and delightful. There are
elegant homes with wide spreading lawns.
The streets are beautifully shaded, a nd
there are beautiful drives in this city of
hills. Visiting friends in an elegant resi
dence on a high hill, fronting the National
Cemetary and in good view of Kennesaw
mountain we had full benefit of delightful
mountain breezes,
The Peabody Institute is in session con
ducted by our cld friend Prof .Branham
of Brunswick with several assistants.
Throusrh the kindness of Prof. Stewart of
Marietta and Mr. Branham the teachers
were tendered several complimentary
rides in a big tallyho with four horses
and on these occasions all dignity was for
gotten, and even the most sedate of the
teachers found the mirth contagious and
all joined in singing comic songs, telling
humerous anecdotes, guessing conundrums
playing games etc.
Our first drive was out to Kolb<s
farm about four mi es from Marrietta
where one of the most famous battles
of the war was lought. Mr. Kolb
and his wife live on the place and
showed us many interesting relics of
the war, cannon balls that had been
found around the house and many of
the trees were scarred with bullet
marks. Then we were treated to
some things in the shape of nice fresh
cider and apples, poaches, etc. which
were decidely more palatable than
ncanon balls, if not so historica.
Our next trip was to climb to the
top of Kennesaw mountain. We fi
nally managed to reach the top and
the grand view was sufficient com
pensation for the plentiful supply of
falls and bruises we had sustained
while ascending the mountain. 11. R.

GEORGIA BUSINESS COEEEGE,
W yatt & M art: n , Macon Ga,
It is needless to say to our read
ers that our investigation of the
Business College we n- w review was
conducted upon the lines laid down
in the past, lo this case as in all
others, no charges were made, no
gifts accepted, no adv* rtisements
solicited. The only interests con
sulted have been those of our read
ers. who asked honest, unpreju
diced advice concerning the rela
tive merits of 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
leport 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 bu-iness college
which really fils its graduates for
the high*su positions of trust and
in the business world ;
and the unbusiness 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 of 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; and to
heartily endorse it to every reader,
who desires the highest practical
education at thelowes possible cost.
Would there were far more such in
stitulions throughout the country
to-day. It occupies the same rela
tive position to the inferior business
college eurrouud it, as does our own
great Univerity of Chicago to the
primary schools of the land, —Wes-

best remedy ever devised for the speedy
and permanent cure for all skin an blood
diseases, from the simplest pimple to ths
