r Americus -Recorder. W. L. OLBIMBR. Kdltor. Official Organ of Webster County, FRIDAY, IKPT. 12tll, IBM. DAILY RECORDER. TO BE ISSUED TUESDAY, SEPT. 16. The proprietor of the RECxiitDF.il Lav- tog been many times solicited daring tbe past year to issue a daily paper, and be lieving that tbe time baa come when Americas can give a living support ■aob a paper, bos oonolnded to mako o times of tbe city, and if sufficient sup port is guaranteed tbe Recorder will be iiaued as a Daily on and after Tuesday, Sept. lOtb, being iaaned every morning except Monday. Tbe paper will be a six column folio, the present size ef tbe Tri-Weekly, and tbe price will be Fifty Cents per month, payable monthly. While it will not con tain full Associated Frees telegraphic re ports, we expect to mako arrangements by which all events of special importance will be sent as special telegrams. Jn taking this step we are fully aware Of tbe additional exponso and labor in< volved, and have no hope of realizing ary Immediate profit from tbe venture, wo ask is sufficient support to pay its way. We believe that tbe publ ication of • daily paper in Americus will be of great benefit to tbo city in a number of ways. It will prove of great convenience to our merchants, of interest to tbe pooplo gen erally, and serve to give our city a greater reputation abroad for enterprise and pros perity. But we do not intend to advsnoe any argument in favor of it. Our propo sition is purely a business one. If the people of Amerlous waut a daily papor, we aro prepared to givo them ono; If they do not, we do notfearo to force one upon thorn. Our canvasser will call upon onr peo ple during tho week to receive their sub scriptions and advertisements, and we hope all will give him a prompt answer —yes or no—os tbe time is limited and be cannot enter into arguments. In caso tbo Daily is startod, the Tri Weekly will be discontinued. Wisconsin and Minnesota were visited by a cyclone on Wednes- <i»y. Tammany Is going to fall Into line ami support Cleveland and Hendricks. This ought to insure New York to the Democracy. The Buena Vista Senlinal comes to us enlarged to eight columns to the page. Mr. Daniel, tho editor and manager, has greatly improved tho Sentinel since he took hold of it. Notwithstanding the Republicans put forth extraordinary exertions in Maine, and that it is the home of their caudidatc, they failed to get au extraordinary majority in the late electio n &VVo swelter amt complain of the hot weather dowu here, but it is worse at the North. In New York eity, on Sunday, there were 153 deaths reported,and the majority of Ihrm from heat and sunstrokes TOE STATE DEBT. Some newspapers seem to be alarmed because the State debt becomes due in 1886 and 1889,and there is met enough mopey to, tbe treasury to p%f it. They atgt* therefrom that the State must sell its railroad property and astess bigb taxes in order to pay it. This does not necessarily follow, oa the debt can be easily refunded at a' lower rate of interest, and there Is no necessity of increasing tbe rate of taxation for that purpose. It may be that this agitation is made in the interest of parlies^who de sire to secure llie State railroad at a small sum. UEQRGIA NEWS. ANNOUNCEMENTS. Griflln’e first new bale ot cjtton w is jeceiyed Mondays-A FOIl .MAYOIl New Jersey defaulting bank of ficers are quite sensitive—in fact, fatally so. Cashier Hiil, of the New Brunswick National Bank, got to speculating with the bank funds, and of course, proved to be defaulter in a Urge amount. Forthwith Cashier Hill cuts his throat from car to car. This oc curred last Saturday. On Monday President Ilunyon, of tbe same bank, after reading in a New York paper that be (the President) was mixed lip in the fraud, went into a room in the hank building and severed his jugular. One of the Directors, on being asked what he knew about the alfair, fainted and fell down on the sidewalk, and was carried home unconscious. An other director fainted, and it was reported that a third director had committed suicide. This is a healthy sign, and had all these officers cut their tbroat9 beloie stealing the depositors’ money, it would have been better all round.

Cand ler. 10th Dist.—Hon. Geo. T. Barnes. It is believed the Republican National Committee docs not real ly hope to carry a single Southern State. Tho Republicans of the South aro making constant demands for funds, but there appears to be woeful want of confidence among tho members of the grand old par- ty- The prospeots of Democratic gains in the next eonato appear to grow brighter. There is hope of Demooratio Senators being elected in Connecticut, Illinois, New York and Wisconsin, while there are those who predict that Senator Riddlehergcr, of Virginia, will leave the Republican side iu dis gust. There ie a lighting chance for a Democratic Senate in the Forty-ninth Congress. D. Adair, of Henry county, lias an arithmetic 97 years old. It is written on coarse unruled paper. Tbe peumanship is exceedingly good. The fly-leaf has written on “This arithmetic began on the Util day ot September, 1787, by John Itookcr, schoolmaster in Warren county, N. C. Ho lives at Snookey Castle. He was nine months in completing tbe hook.” The prohibition amendment to the constitution, ratified liy the peoplo of Maine Monday, forever forbids the manufacture and sole of any intoxicating liquor in tbe Stale,except “cider.” It is thought that the Legislature will have serious question in fixiug the limits to the “hardness” of cider. By a little skillful doctoring cider can he made so liard that it will knock • man oil his legs about as quickly as Jersey lightniug will Senator Edmunds, after long de lay and much solicitation, made one speech for bis party in Ver mont.

The grand jury of Monroe last week found a true bill against one of the leading physicians in the county for selling whisky in viola tion of law. One of the largest plan era in Oglethorpe county has decided to plant no more cotton. He will turn his attention to bay, which, he says, pays better and is always certain. Since the whisky traffic was prohibited in Johnson county, there has been a steady decrease in oriine, and the jail has now al* most become a useless appendage to the county. J. N.
