Tlmt Heidlrbtcr Again. The editor of the Gazkttk begs parilqn of its readers for again no ticing that unenviable write-up, tlmt, Tifton and her young people received in tho Sycamore News three or four weeks since. The writer thereof last Week at tempted to add. insult to injury by securing the .publication' in the samc- puper ii second article in which ho not only insists that Ids former charges against Tifton and her young peoplo arc true, but tells tho readers of tho News that wo read the article and sanctioned it by our si lence. Now, wc pronounce this charge ugaiiiBt ns unqualifiedly false; the young man hud-gone to Sumner be fore wo knew of tlio existence of the write-up, This we can establish by several creditable witnesses. We notice two more charges in Ids last, article; tlmt wc tire affiliated with hatred horn of jealousy lowurd him. Jealous, Indeed, of a sorry specimen of the genus man whom we took from tlm depth of obscurity and tried to elovutc to respectability; no, we are not jealous—only mortified tlmt we attempted such ail impossibility, and lost our tlineaM trouble. Tlm time 1ms been when wo would ltave done almost us much for t.liin young trmn as we would for ono of our brothers. Hot, now, he bus for feited' our friendship and respect.

Oue spiteful brother, Grouby, of the Fort Gaines Herald, allows hie teeth at us for adopting wlmt has become an iilmost universal custom among flw fraternity-using short paragraphs from exchanges without credit. Tlm Gazkttk lets seen its paragraphs copied oonstanlly with nut credit, biit'no protest was entered by the editor for tlm above reason Even if it Imd not become a custom we are too high toned unit charitable to iiitlinalo in tlm slightest way that our brelh’ren Imd slciler, our effusions, Bni. Grmiby not only dcBCunds to tills disMurlosy hut, makes a mis statement of the facts. He charges ns with using. Ids paragraphs on our (Seal page without credit. We will state for the enlightenment of our erratic brother that we usually place on our third page from a half to a column of short miscellaneous Items -'-original bright bits from oar ex changee- -with a geqeral credit iii^ the heading, In this column onr brother found his paragraphs which lie eluims was not credited, if In: Imd taken the trope In read tlm department head ing at tlm top of the column lie would have found the general orei'nf them given and not gone off half- cocked. lira, Grouby need not exercise himself too severely about his having to edit our paper; if wo are not com petent to edit It ourself we certainly don't need a spltllre in tlm business.

Much is being.said for mid against tlm calling of an extra session of con gress after, the inauguration of presi dent-elect Cleveland, 4th of March next, to begin the work of democrat ie reformation and relief as indicated in the national platform and the can didacy of Grover Cleveland. The New York World, which did more to elect and is considered near-- er to the president-elbct than any other paper in the country, is strong ly in favor of an extra session, in fact considers one absolutely necessa ry, and assigns till following reasons: “Till regular session does not nicel for more than a ycar*-u|fil Decem ber, 1893. A month or more is al ways consumed in tlm organization, the appointment of committees and the holiday recess. “Without an extra session it is al most a mathematical certainly that the now lari IT will not be completed before-tlm summer of 1894, if then. That is the very eve of the next con gressional e’eotion. “Is it not almost a travesty upon the popular government tlmt relief demanded and reforms required hy tiie polls, hy un electoral and popu lar majority unparalielled in twenty years, should bo delayed until it is time to elect another congress? “Considering the enormous inter eats involved and tiie political dan ger in submitting to tiie judgment of tiie voters a new law of this clmr- actor immediately after its passage; and before Its operations cun be fair ly judged, it is not impossible that Ihe new tariff would be delayed un til the seooniiseBslon of the next con- gress—tlmt is, Hie spring of 1896. "Altogether is ii. not wiser, is ii not surep, is it not really going slow er IS the sense of acting with due deliberation, to begin thia herculean work in an extrusession, say In April or May, in order to finish it before 1896. The World thinks that the verdict of Hu: three elections in 1890,1891 and 189a demand the repeal of tlm McKinley not and tlio substitution of a reform tariff.
