CHARLES A PRICKER.
Instead of being stoned at Ocala,
Dr. McCune has been caned—and
a gold headed one at that.
Gordon has clearly captured the
Alliance—and the Alliance has evl
dently captured the Senator. Thus
"all ends happily."
The Rome Tribune announces
that Mr. Branham will not take
editorial charge of that paper until
the first of January.
. That was clearly a breath from
'cousin Jack Frost that wo had yes-
jterday and last night. But If we of
"the South are cold, what must our
Northern friends besuflerlng?
The third party Idea at the All!
ance convention at Oeala has about
been given up. The old Demo,
oratlo party is good enough for the
Southern Alliancemen.
THE PRIMARY.
Capt. J. A. Cobb announces In
this morning's Recorder that be
has.withdrawn from the race for
Mayor. His reasons for this step
are explained by bis card, aud are
that he fears a contest may bring
dlsentions and bitterness among
Democrats, when now, above all
other times, there should be bar
stony. Oapt. Cobb’s course Is
manly and straightforward, s,nd
shows the nobility in themau’s na
ture. Rather than|create discord In
his party he layB aside persoual
preferences and ambitions. The
Recorder hopes the time will
come when Capt. Cobb will not
repent this action, and when even
those who oppose him cannot say
he Is not elible for the offlce;he may
be asked to take.
The alda^manlc ticket announced
in The Recorder this morning
is composed wholly of young men
selected from different sections of
the city, so that all may he repre'
sented. Theso young men are
leading representatives of that
class that will soop have the bur
dens of the city administration to
bear, and. that they will make
yprtby officers there is no doubt.
With energetic, young men in
charge of city affairs Amerieus
krill but take a stronger hold, and
Boon suoh an importance In popu
lation, wealth and size as to be
come, not the seventh city in the
.stalk, but one of the first.
. SHOULD BE REPRESENTED.
In another column we publish an
interview with Col. Way, Georgia’s
Commissioner to the World’s Fair,
with the Atlanta Constitution. As
the State constitution prohibits any
appropriations from the treasury
for-anch purposes, The Recorder
14 afrkld Georgia cannot have a
State exhibit at the expense of the
State, though there lr. no donbt but
the people' would gladly vote the
necessary money if they could,
That Georgia should have a fine
exhibit there Is no question, and it
nrtyl be lasting disgrace to the
State if it does not have one. An
exhibit of,thp resources ol the State,
properly collected and arranged,
woqld'ahow up Georgia In a new
light to eyen the people who live in
^he . While California will
no' doubt have a magnificent ex
hibit wltha fund of half a million
to. get It, The Recorder believes
ibti Georgia would'not be afraid to
Viand betme her If even only $o0,-
000 was expended. True, no extra
frll'laAohlfi Wpnton with that, sum,
and champagne and lithographed
