From tho Talbotton Now Era:
A negro man from Box Spring was
hero Saturday for tbo purpose of
“getting the straight” concerning
the inauguration of President- Har
rison. He said that a black ropub
lican in his neighborhood had an
noonced that Harrison had “tookon
hi? east” and that “when Mr. Harri
son looked his seat Mr. IlarriBon
gaaed at thoso around him and
said i “Boys, lot ire sit hero and
regt eight days before you pester
mo.” The negro stated further
that he had “beared” that a state
alliance out West had sent an im
mense broom £o Mr. Harrison, and
that printed on a card tacked to the
handle thereof was the request:
“Sweop the democrats out clean.”
A farmer of Schley county has a
eat that hag developed tho samo in

nary cat takes in mouso-catching.
and she parades with bor captains
with just as much pride. She has
over dovoted herself to collecting
lost clothes inns, and not a few that
were not lost. Sirimgo to say, she
never touches the pins belonging to
her owner, bnt is death on clothes
pins which belong to the neighbors.
In the past three months she has
brought home over twenty-eight
dozen clothes pins, and inquiry
shows that tho cat keeps her eye on
the place where the pins aro kept.
One neighbor kept a basketful ot
pins on a tin roof and tbo eat had to
pass ov*r two o~ three roofs to got
them, but sheeuccecdcd in taking
throe dozen from the basket before
she was discovered.

“OUS AMBITION 18 TO MAES A \EBACIQU3 WORK, RELIABLE IN ITS STATEMENTS, CANDID IN ITS CONCLUSIONS, AND JUST IN ITS YIKW8,"
Eatonton, Ga., March 5, 1889
To the Members of the {State Al
liance:
Dear Brothers: We take this ( metl
od of presenting for your considera
tion the name of Hon.Jno. T. De
Jarnette, of Putnam, as a suitable
man for the Presidency ot the Sin e
Alliance. In suggesting his name we
feel assured that all who know him
will fully endorse all we say of him.
and those unacquainiel with him
will, upon inquiry, find him fully
qualified for this offi ;e.
Dr. DeJarnette is no politician;
has never sought office or endeavored
to become prominent in political
circles, and yet he wouid have been
often preferred by his people ha 1 b,
consented to their solicitations. In
1886 he was elected to the State,
Senate from the 18th distri ct.
which was his first, appearance in
public life. In thi 3 office he distin
guished himself and honored his
constituency. After his term cf
offi''e expired he was solicited to run
for the Douse, but, having served
his people once, and having nr
political aspiration he firmly refused
to make the race. .Da allows the use
ofhi 8 name for this position only
after earnest solicitation, and with
the solo idea that he may snyc the
Alliance,
The best years of this gentleman
have been devoted to farming, in,
which pursuit, as in a ; l others , he
has been eminently successful.
Having always been devoted to
the development of his country, and
particularly her agricultural in
terests, his splendid executive a*
bility has been often honored and
relied upon. He was a director and
one Of the originator? of the fi rs:
Agricultural Fair held in Georgia
after the war. lie was president of
tho Agricultural (Tub of Putnam
which made the celebrated exhibit
at the Piedmont Fair. He Is now
President of o’Ur local Alliance, and
of the Alliance Board of Trade of
Putnam, which has put into opera
tion the only co-operative store in
the State which refuses to extend
credit to any, but which is now doing
a cash business of$109,060 per an
num. He was appointed by Governor
Gordon a delegate to the Inter State
Agricultural Convention which.met
in Atlanta in 1887. During which
convention he was tendered tire
Vice-Presidency but refuged to
accept this office.
Since the organization of the
Alliance fin Georgia heha 3 been one
of ite most earnest supporters, and if
elected will serve this body with his
whole heart. Fra'ernally Yours,
