Atlanta was not given a regiment of

A man’s knowledge of topics of pub

the fact that he does not subscribe for
a newspaper. He may take one (from

it.
It would be in accordance with the
eternal litne-s of things if tho Faiis

One Turn Next.
An exchange has figured it out that,
in the natural order of things, the
Democrats will win the next presiden
tial election.
The last seven presidential elections
have been carried alternately, with
the regularity of a four year clock, by
each of the two political parties.
The record is:
1872—Grant, Repuhlic.au.
187ti—Tilden, Democrat.
1880—Garfield, Republican.
188-I—Cleveland, Democrat.
' 1888—Harrison, Republican.
1892—Cleveland, Democrat.
18%—McKinley, Republican.
According to tho rule the next presi
dent should l>e a Democrat, and we
may then add to the above:
1900—Bryan, Democrat.
