Senator Atkinson will sound well,
though merely applied to the mem¬
ber from Batts and not the states
mob from Coweta.
It is noted that so far as heard
from the Georgia newspapers
that are opposed to free Cuba are
also opposed to free silver. This is
proper and consistent.
leader of the Polk county
is also a leader at the
Floyd county Republicans. This is
a significant piece of ambidexterity,
says tiie Augusta Herald.
Hpring was already well advanced
a week ago In Ourry county, Oregon,
whiah is about the same latitude os
New York. Wild flowers wore in
Noam, trees and brush were in leaf,
cherry trees were showing blossoms,
and miles of salmon-berry bushes
were in foU bloom. Buttercups
were showing m the sheltered val¬
leys, too. .:'TT ; ;
THE CONGRESSMAN FROM TITP lUJj
ELEVENTH.
The Hon. Henry G. Turner lias
once more very thoroughly shown
his difference from the general run
at Democrats in congress, in Geor¬
gia and in the United States, if not
ia tbe Klaventh district. When he
stepped ihto Dingloy’s shoes and
argued and voted against the silver
bill, he did that which was abhorrent
to the principles, practices and tra¬
ditions of his party; but he at least
had a faction behind him that ap¬
proved and defended his course.
But when on Monday he turned
ail the force of his great alleged
ability against the recognition of the
rights of struggling Cuba to any
claims upon justice and humanity,
and was the conspicuous leader of
the seventeen defenders of Spanish
cruelty and upholders of old world
despotism, out of two hundred and
eighty congressmen, there should he
no true Georgian so base as to be on
his side. Yet the lust for and belief
in gold and the love of monarchical
institutions go hand in hand, and
Congressman Turner’s position eti
the financial question being so well
known, possibly we should not be
surprised that the member from the
very district from which many peo¬
ple are said to have passed over to
help Cuba, should be willing to keep
that desolated island in chains.
Mr. Turner may properly repre¬
sent the Eleventh district, though it
is difficult to believo it; but he will
never he ashed to represent the com-
monwealth of Georgia.

tended to all points on the line.
This clause, it is umlerstood, is the
rssnlt of the action of lines which
recently abolished the demurrage
charges as to Atlanta. Tin; commis¬
sion holds that shippers in all parts
of the State are entitled to stand on
the same footing, and if demurrage
is discontinued in Atlanta it must
also be discontinued at all other
cities by the lines at interest.
Anothor important change re¬
quires that where shippers are noti¬
fied by mail, instead of by personal
service, they must be allowed twen
ty-four hours more time.
The new rales take effect on the
16th of March.
OUR NEXT STATE SENATOB.
Hon. T. J. Dempsey, who has so
ably represented Butts the past two
terms in the legislature, is said to
hAve notified his friends who want¬
ed him to be in the race for senator
of his intention not to be a candi¬
date.
It is Batts’ time to elect a senator
for the Twenty-sixth district, buf
so far only one has announced, that
being Hon. A. A. Atkinson, who
has represented the county in the
general assembly.
It begins to look very much aa if
the gentleman who will represent
this district in the next Btate senato
will bearthe- same family patrony¬
mic as the governor.
It is stated that Benjamin Buck-
man, of Farmingdale, 111., has an ex-
perimental orchard of apples [in
which are over 550 'named varieties.
The differences are in many cases so
slight as to be tmappreoiable to
any but an expert, but the 550differ¬
ent varieties are vouched for.
Galling for Owl ton in the Eighth.
A then* Banner.
The congressional race in the
Eighth district draws on apace. It
will not be many weeks beforo the
candidates for that office will be
coming into the arena. From an
article published elsewhere in this
issue it will he seen that strong
pressure is being brought to bear
upon ex-Oongressman H. H. Garlton
to enter the race. Capt. Carlton has
not yet mode up his mind on this
question, but if he decides to enter
the race he will make it lively for
his competitors. His views on the
financial question are sound as to
their Democracy and in keeping of
with the views of the Demor treats
this district . While in the 50th and
51st congress lie made an active and
energetic congressma n, looking after
every interest' of his constituents.
He would make the Eighth district he a
splendid congressman again if
should ruu and be elected.
The People and the Convention.
Columbus Ledger,
The desire for only one Democrat¬
ic convention in Georgia this year,
seems to be growing among the peo¬
ple of the State.
The strength h of of the the opponents evid^it, of
Democracy is" i becoming it
having been dev< ilovelopefi to of an the unns-
al ional degree by the coming aing na
election, and it it is is becoming
plainly apparent, that and for satisfactory Democra¬
cy to win a great this Demo¬
victory in Georgia year,
cratic energy must be contracted
upon the elections themselves.
The expense at holding two con¬
ventions lias entered very largely
into the consideration of the matter,
and canned many to favor the hold-
ingofonly one convention.
It t now now set seems practically mire that
the State Democratic executive com
mittee at its meeting in Atlanta oil
next Saturday will deride that but
one convention aliall be held, it bring
estimated that at least t wenty of the
thirty-five members of the commit¬
tee are in favor of one convention.'

The World from Washington says: If

Teller, Dubois, Carter, Mantle and Gan¬
non in joining with the Democrats to
strike down the horizontal tariff bill was
intended as a formal notice to their grid

Senator Dubois was asked:
“If the Republican party nominates
at St. Louis a grid standard silver candidate
for the presidency, will you men

Senator Dubois, in reply, dictated this
