The marshal of Rlnkely receives a
salary of £2. r >0 per annum. Untph!
A resolution has been introduced in
the house of representatives, by Mr.
Spalding, republican, of Michigan, in
favor of the annexation of Hawaii, and
its admission as a state.
ft is not always the candidate whose
friends do the most boasting that gets
the plum. T he people have learned
better than to be led off bv brass band
parade* and kelllr drum rackets,
If anything else were needed to
make the Atlanta Constitution more
contemptible and ridiculous, says an
exchange, its dhnmphool editorial ou
the midnight bond issue would he. suf¬
ficient.
The lowest down populist organ in
the country hn* never resorted to one
half the contemptible abuse of I’resi¬
dent Cleveland that has been indulged
in by tbe Atlanta Constitution. This
fact speaks for itself.—Macon News.
John L. Hardeman, James M.
Griggs, Ryron R. Rower and J. J.
Turnbull have left the circuit bench in
the last two months, which causes the
Savannah I’ress to remark that small
salaries for judges are expensive
things.
Many of (’apt. Hnnimond’s friends
are disposed to congratulate him and
themselves since learning that he will
not have the support of the Atlanta
Constitution in his candidacy for con¬
gress. It is pretty good evidence that
there is nothing shaky in his makeup
as a statesman, besides he ing a sure
sign of his success.
Col W. M. Hammond, of Thomas
county, is also ft candidate, and the
probability is that lie will hr ihe lucky
man. He is unquestionably tbe ablest
man in tbe district, and has rendered
the democratic party more conspicuous
service than any man in it. As a
stump speaker he has but few equals
in the state.- Lawrencevillo News.
It is rumored that when Judge Row
er resigns the judgeship of the Albany
circuit to run for congress, Governor
Atkinson may appoint Solicitor-Goner
al Spence, of Camilla, to succeed him,
and that Hon. \N. E. \\ ooten, of
bany, will be a candidate for appoint
racut to the vaoaney thus occasioned
in the solicitorship. He is one of the
circuit and his friends all over the
state would he gratified at hi« appoint
ment.
From the daily dispatches we learn
that Mr*. Susie Morris, wife ot Dr.
Morris, of Johnston Station, on from'a S. F .
and W. railroad, was thrown
buggy while out driving a few days
Slltce and instantly killed bv her head
.triking ngainst a‘ tree. Mr,. Mari.
Will be remembered bv tbe people of
Rlnkelv as as Miss anas Susie . usie Morris .Morns, atlaugli
ter of Rev. 1\ If. Grumpier, who serv
ed as the pastor of tho M. E. church
of this place a few years ago. She had
only been married a few months and
her untimely death was a heavy blow
to her husband and many friends.—

The Savannah New., quoting 1 " a South
Georgia populist leader, who was talk
mg to a South Georgia populist con
stnuent, says “the burden of his
versation was an arraignment of the
greedy corporations that have fastened
themselves upon the psople and are
sucking .. the .... lile , s blood , r from .. them.
"
‘Do you know,’ said this leader of men,
•that down in Savannah the people
have to pay for the water they drink,
and that the telephone company
charges a man for the privilege of
tug to .. Ins neighbor? . 1 he idea of ,
ing a tax upon water and charging
money for the privilege of talking
created so profound an impression
upon the populistic constituent that
he was lired with an irrepressible de
sue to take his shot gun and , go right . .

The amount paid yearly as pensions
by the United States represents one
third of tlie ordinary expenditure of
the government. Rut the amount is
annually growing . , less. The decline
shows that the veterans of the war are
rapidly tlunmng out at the , north ns
well as the south. The last annual
appropriation by congress for pensions
shows a decline of #4,000,000. j n
1894 tbe expenditure for pensions
amounted to #141,177,284, and now
we see it stated that tlie house bill for
penrions for tlie next year will can v
only #127,000,000. These figures
represent * an enormous annual outlay;
siill the , cost of , the pension . roll of the
union soldiers is growing less each
year—Ex.
