The Constitution pays the follow¬
ing tribute to the Georgia Weekly
press. '1 he state is proud of its
weekly press and of the bright asso
ciation of brains and energy that
meets in annual session in Atlanta—
an association which guides the des¬
tinies of many Georgia Newspapers,
and is at once a pleasure and a profit
of Its talented members. The week-
ly editors show tip well in CA’ery placo
and path of life—in the field and the
forum,in the t eaccful plains of their
Avhite<-cottage village, and in the
splendid precincts of great cities.
They are men Avherever you find
them ; men of ability, men of pluck
and push, and-that, high enterprise
is the soli-l, enduring basis of
ro ^ ress and success The weekly
press has been and ever ,vil! be an
important factor in Ihogroivth and
greatness of the state; it has bu.lt
cities; it 1ms cufved the steel track
of railroad through the solitudes,
until great, progressive towns blos¬
somed in Avaste places; it has cham¬
pioned the rights of the people—^
the friend of right and the eijeiny of
wroag; it is fulfilling its high mis*
sion every day, and is adding to its
strength and usefulness. The Con¬
stitution -hoHors'and welcomes the
weekly editors of Georgia, and we
^heartily. Avish them that high success
which they richly deserve. May their
power ami influence increase in the
land. The efforts they are putting
forth for their people should be ap¬
proved and sustained. A county
paper should be a county’s pride; it
does a Avork which no other paper
can do half as Aveil—often without
reward—and deserves far more than
it receives at the people’s hr.nda.

DEMOCRACY.
Ills The Party Of The
People
Victory Within Tno Grasp Of
The DemoctotlcJParty,
When General Weaver ami Jerry
Simpson wero in Atlanta a few days
ago, it became very evident to the
Joiunal that the real object of their
visit to Georgia, was the promulga¬
tion of the third party idea and a de¬
sire to disrupt the Democratic organ¬
ization of tins State,—The Journal
,
said as much editorially the day af¬
ter theso visiting Statesmen deliver¬
ed the.msely.es in tliis city, aad our
edisoria’ has provoked from Gener¬
al Weaver and Air. Simpson a still
clearer declaration of their purpose
than they made m Atlanta. Both
m Athens and in riogausvdle they
went further than they did here in
the advocacy of third partyism and
in their efforts to carry Georgia
Democrats into it. We,therefore,feel
that the Journal has done good ser¬
vice t>y provoking these third [tarty
apostles to throw off their guise and
appear in their true light.—The peo¬
ple now know what those men are
and what they hope to accomplish.
Mr. Simpson boastod at Hogansvilk
yestetday that the Third party was
organized long ago, and that it was
going to perform its mission* ; That
mission so far as the south is con¬
cerned, is. the disruption of our Dem¬
ocratic organization, and we think
Mr. Simpson is a badly fooled man
when he think* that he and Ids as.
sociates will be able to accomplish
this result. These visiting Third
party statesmen arc speaking in
Georgia by invitation of pi eminent
Alliancemen and they.presume to tell
Alliancemen in this state just what
they ought to do. But we can not
believe that the Farmers’ Alliance in
Georgia endorses the Third party
scheme or will follow the lead of its
agent s who are now speaking in the
State. The Alliancemen of Georgia
ar^ Democrat?. . They, have witness¬
ed the great work which the demo¬
cratic Rarty has done for their State,
and they are convinced that Demo,
cratic unity is now greatly to be de¬
sired as the only means of rescuing
the government from the control of
the party which has fastened upon
the masses of the people the oppres¬
sion that now galls them.
We do not believe that the people
of Georgia will abandon this convic¬
tion and follow the leiel of political
adventurers like General Weaver and
Jerry Simpson, men who have no
sympathy with the work the Demo¬
cratic party has done for the Sou'h,
and no claim upon the confidence of
the people of this section. ‘
Victory is now within tha grasp
of the solid Democratic party- The
division of the party would imperij
this great boon. The South 19 wot
ready to take this responsibility.
’ BeaisMn.i maybe expected to go away
down to nothing in price in another
year. Rich and fasliionable women will
have to find something el so to spend
their money on. A recent dispatch eayr
that tho Alaska Seal company, defeated
h its bid to the United States, govern¬
ment for exclusive seal fishing privileges
on the American grounds, has contracted
with tha Russian authorities for the
right t-o fish on the Siberian coast oppo¬
site Alaska, It null thus run opposite
to the rth American Commercial com¬
pany, that has tho contract the Alaska
company fcrmerlV enjoyed under the
United States gfR'cmment. We may
expect some lively competition, the re¬
sult of which will be that seal cloaks
will go out of fashion.
It is qusationablo taste to put off the
expression of sorrow oa»st the death of a
prominent public man till his widow has
had time enough to many again if she
wished. Uou. S. SL Cox died Sept. 10,
l-'vjij; but the Unitod States senate ap¬
parently have jus! heard of it, stneo they
havo spent part of a day making speeches
of cnl Vy over him, and passed resolu¬
tions informing his family how eorry
they wore that he had departed this life.
The late congressman’s family wffl
probably conclude the senators were’e
gnod while finding out tbsir grief.

A NIGHT IN NEW YORK.

’Tis nightfall ou the sex’]
O n’y a strain of music floating on
the still air of night, and the petals
of a withered white rosebud in m'y
hand, yet potent to recall recollect
tions “soft as the memory of buried
lore,” of a nightspeut far away from
Bare Southern liill*
Where the bright -rock* gleam.
“A vc yanrtisfima!

Ora pro ncibie! oar words rise to thee"
From walls that cloister innocence

What magic in the sottenod mel-

The skulktng thief sneaking down
the dark alley pauses on his mission
of crime, as the molting song brings
a vision of bet'er diyS.
On the broad and busy sfeets im«

footsteps unconsciously and heads

There is music, lights, flowers, in

qicenliest figure.
Out in the dini. conservatory of
this sta.te)y mansion Avhere the sound
of music comes soft and sweet, a
veritable Apollo Bellodajat waits
impatiently. Presently a wlnte-
robed figure glides in. The Avlnte
rose still nestle* in the black hair.
She pauses as if.to stiiL tumultuous
heart-torobs, while she bneati.es a*
fervent “A\'e Maria.” A snow

from the garden of life. Passionate

the dark he ad droops and the soft

Is it the flickering light, or does
the white rose blush red when a
strong hand rests earessingjy on the
dark hair?
What Nemesis confronts the strong
man in this moment ot proud tri¬

and his a;m to fall nerveless at his

forty acres and a mule.
The price of cotton is always a
subject of much interest to the peo¬
ple of Georgia, because on that de¬
pends very largely the amount of
money that will be in circulation the
coming fall;
Cotton is now selling at from 4 to
6 cents a pound, low grade bringing
4 cents and good cotton bringing 6
cents. It costs not less, than 7 cents
a pound to rai-e it. The. farmer
loses I cent a pound on his good cot¬
ton, and 3 cents a pound on his low
grade, injured-cot,ton. . -.■*
. Now the question is,why is cotton
so low ? It is simply because there
is too much of it in the country.
There is no demand for it. Supply
and demand govern the price of
everything, If there were fifty dol¬
lars where there is now only one dol¬
lar it would take liftv dollars to pay
fqr what one dollar will now pur¬
chase, ami if the farmers were to
raise, fifty tunes #s much cotton as
they are now raising, they would get.
only one-fiftieth the present price for
it. Twenty years ago cotton was
high, because not very ranch of it
.was raised. A great deal is being
raised now, hence.the low price.
This fact calls to mind the vision
that floated before the farmers’ minds
last fall. The Alliance leaders told
tho farmers to hold their cotton and
they would get 1 1 cents a pound for
it. We heard a number of nrim sav
they intended to have that much for
everyj pound they raised. Did they
get it? Not much. Stine of them
got 9 cants a pound by selling as
soon as they got their cotton ginned.
Others foU< wed the advice of their
scheming leaders and got from 6 to
Trents - with
The low price of cotton, its
inevitable resuiti, is fearful to con¬
template. It will cause many farin'*
ers to, fail and become dissatisfied
with Avork. There are a great many
farmers who buy their supplies on
time and depend on their cotton
crops to settle the debts. If the
prop fails, or the price of cotton is
low the farmers fail. Wouldn't it
be a good.deal better foi the .farm¬
ers if they would raise their supplies
at home, ami let their cotton crops
be a surplus? If they wonld do that
the price of cotton would not at all
interfere with their living. They
would be perfectly independent.
Next fall the demagogues will
come around and give the farmers
more advi*e, and some of them will
probably heed it, but our opinion is
they will not hold their cotton for
12 cents a pound
And here is another .prediction
which you|will please imrk. The
demagogues will tell the people that
the government is responsible for
the low* price of cotton,and that the
only way to remedy the e?il is to elect
Alliancemen to office. See if this
brediction doesn’t come vrue; and
yet the government has no mure
to do with the price of cotton than
the czar of Russia has to do with tne
price of blackberries in Milton conn-
o-
Brother Alliancemen, we are all
personal friends. Now consider
these things without getting out ^ of
humor, aud see if it wouldn’t .be .to
your interest to drop the demagogue®
and look after the interests of No. 1
