The Georgia Legislature met on
yesterday, but as we go to pres be
fore any news reaches we can say
nothing as to what they are doing.
The Alabama democrats have str
ved notice on the populists that they
are strong enough lo go it alone and
have no u s e for their free siver the
ories
Colonel Robert G. Ingersoll will
lecture in Atlanta during the latter
part of November. A guarantee of
*I,OOO has already been given him
and he has agreed to come.
Queen Victoria has not outlived
the vanity of her hands. Latest of
ficial prints show jeweled rings on
her second and third fingers and
bangle chain bracelets on her left
wrist.
The way to cure a disease is to
remove the cause. When the caus
of lvnci ings has been removed
thorewill be no necesity for further
treatment of the disease. A cure is
possible in no other way.
When Senator Go* don voted
squarely against free coinage of sil
ver, on the 12ih inst., he set forth
his faithfulness to the pledges of
the Chicago and the Georgia Demo
cratic platforms. It will be a long
time before his term expires, but
the democratic masses of Georgia
have long memories.—Ishmaeltie,
Forty young society men of Chat
tanooga have bound themselves to
gether in an oathbound organiza
tion, so it is alleged, to cut dowr.
personal expenses by declinii g all
invitations to social functions dur
ing the coming season. The motto
of the organization is, ‘’Look out
for the pennies; the girls can take
care of themselves.”
The Choctaw Indiacs should
now be considered thoroughly civ
ilized, their treasurer having
‘‘skipped.'’ leaving a shortage ol
something like SIOO,OOO Consid
ering the amount he had to handle,
no Chicago or New York man could
have made a heavier haul.
There is in the newly settled
Cherokee strip a community which,
while not exactly an Adamless
Eden, is a place where men are not
desired. The plucky female set
tlers, who are all widows or spin
sters, weie led by Annette Daisy, a
Kentucky woman who has taken
part in all the runs by which lands
have been settled in Hie territory.
Twent3-two women joined in last
montlrs rush, and secured posses
sion of three adjoining quarter
sections of good land, or 480 acres
where they already have two smal :
houses and four tents. They have
tried to bu\ out the man who
secured the odd quarter of the sec
tion, but so far have been unsuccess
ful. He evidently is too well please ’
with bis neighbors.

A farmer of Sumter c*u ty gives
to the Americus Times Recorder the
following as his views on the finan
cial question :
There is being so much said in
the country about hard times and
the scarcity of money, and a-< every
body has a cause and knows a rem
edy, I thought I would write and
te ll y our readers what I think is
the cause.
I will not say what Congress is
doing and ought to dr*, neither will
I leave horns for the cause, but will
st ; ck to our own county of Sumter.
We are told that there is an over
production; this a ay be so in other
counties hut it is not so in Sumter.
The trouble i? that we buy in j<*e
than we produce. There is too
muJi flour and bacon shipped
here every year. The things we
ought to make at home we are buy
ing.
We let our timber rot and buy
our plow stocks, singletrees, ax-han
dles, hoe handles and fencing.
We throw away our ashes and
buy soap and axle grease.
We give away our beef hides and
buy hame strings and shoe strings.
We let our manure go to waste
and buy guano.
We buy garden seed in the winter
and cabbage in the soring.
We let our lands grow up in weeds
and buy our brooms. *
We let the wax out our pine aud
gum trees and buy chewing gum
for our children,
We build school houses aud hire
teachers and send our children nlf
to be educated.
We land a five cent hsh with a $4
fishing rod.
We send a 15 cent boy out with a
S2O gun and as4 dog to kill bird*.
We raise dogs and buy wool.
And about the only thing in this
country that there is an over pro
duction of politics and dogtics,
Now this will not apply to every
farmer in our county. We have a
few who are forming and raising
what ihey did fifteen or twenty
years ago, and they are doing just
as well as then.
Capt. Ed. Young has seven and his
connection with the Greensboro
aid-journal, and will devote him
self hereafter to the practice of law.
Georgians will regret to hear that
Colonel Avery has not much chance
of being appointed minister to Nor
way and Sweden.
We learn, with much regret, that
glanders have appeared amongst
the stock on the place of Mr. Ed.
W. Rose, near The Ruck. —Thomas
aston Time3.
“President Cleveland called con
gress together to repeal the Sher
man law unconditionally. And
that is just what congress is going
'o do,” So says the Atlanta Joui
nal.
E W, Rose, a prominent citizen
•f Pike county who lives near
Barnesville, is in hard luck. He
has ten head of stock condemned to

Of course, his barn mud be burned
too. The total loss will be about

TRIBUTE OF RESPECT.
Death has again invaded our ranks
and borne away a nother link from the
mystic chain This time He claimed
one? of our oldest members, Brother TANARUS,
I.McMichael.
Brother McMichael’s name was one
ot the first that ever appeared on our
records, he being a charter member of
the Lodge and for more than forty
six'years had been an honored, upright
and beloved Mason, ever delighted to
visit his Lodge, aid a brother Mason
and keep inviolate evr rj tenet of the
order.
Resolved, That we humbly submit to
the will of the Grand Master above in
thus removing our Brother from : mong
us.
Resolved, 2nd. That we will strive to
emulate h ; s example as a Mason and a
citizen, and that our condolence be ex
tended to his widow and children.
Resolved, 3rd. That a blank page be
left on our recoids. devoted to his mem
ory, and that the Lodge room be draped
nd the members wear the usu.vl mourn
ing for 30 days
Resolved, 4th. That these reaolntions
be published in our county paper and
copy stnt to the family of our deceased
Brother. Respectfully submitted.

SIR i SHE!
The great rush of trade at The Star Store is the talk ot the
country.
No titno to lag—one must keep abreast ot the times or they will
be left. Progressive people are moving on. We intend to keep

keep the BEST GOODS for the least money, but must show a
desire and willingness to accommodate and please the people.

buy and when to buy, combined with the mighty dollar, is placing
us far ahead of anything this section has ever seen in the mercan
tile line.

customers visit our Mercantile Store Rooms daily', imd go off de
lighted, with theii wagons and carriages filled with our cheap goods

breed, he was brought by me
