Americas, Ga., April IS, 1891.
Women voted in the Kansas municipal
election Tuesday, and in Kansas City,
one of them was arrested for being
drunk and disorderly at the polls. Is
this to be one of the results of female
suffrage ?
Germany, with all of her boasted
military strength and war equipment,
manifests no little nervousness at the
ominous massing of solid battalions of
Russian troops on the German frotier.
Russia is rather a dangerous neighbor.
Tho consolidation of the Amoricus
Times and Recorder was a wise stop,
and is a guarantee of a thoroughly good
daily paper which will not onty rciiect
credit on A mericus, hut will prove
powerful factor in developing her great
resources.—Abbeville Times.
It is now evident that last year's cot
ton crop will prove to lie nearly a million
bales in excess of the last previous crop,
and thata large surplus will go over for
next year's consumption. In view of
these facts it is fortunate for tbe south
that this year’s crop will evidently be
much smaller, so that a still further re
daction in price need not be appre
bended.
Ex-8ecbetaby and Senator Rayabii
scorns to be having a great deal domestic
affliction of late. Ilis youngest daughter
is a widow after only ten days marriage
to Count Lewenhaupt, a Swedish noble
man, who was married on April 2nd and
died Monday last This is an especially
sad ease, as Count Lewenhaupt appears
to have been one of the few foreigners
of title who marry American girls that
are really gentlemen.
The April report of the department of
' agriculture, states that the general aver
age oondltion of winter wheat is 00.0,
the highest average reported for April
since 1882. It is true, as the report adds,
a high condition of the wheat crop , at
tbia early stage does not insure a large
yield, though there is nothing In sight
wbloh threatens to dash the hopes of
the farmer.
Non that the force bill Is thoroughly
dead and Harrison has put on second
mourning for it, the people ot the South
wlU not be disposed to do any worse by
him than to “heap coala of fire on his
head”—enough to burn the crown out
of that bistorio hat of bis. Hit excel
lency ought to call on that hat to cover
him when he thinks of his efforts to in
jure and disgrace the people whose hos
pitality be will enjoy this week.
Tan death of Mrs. Asa Jackson re-
cently In Athens recalls the fact that
this lady was the owner of the original
manuscript of John Howard Payne's
“Home, Sweet Home.” Mary Hardin,
who was muoh admired by Payne, had
this manuscript, and on her death left it
to Mr*. Jaekaon, but on searching for it
the paper could not be found among her
effeets. It is generally believed that tbe
paper was stolen by a sen ant and te-
.creted, but all search for It has so far
proven fruitless.—Augusta Evening
News.
Senator Peek hr, of Kansas, has ex
ploded another’ Republican lie to the
-effect that at the next session of con'
grass lie would vote witii tho Republi
cans on ail party questions. Senator
Fetter says that he never authorized
snch a statement, because he nover en-
tained for a moment tile idea of voting
with the Republicans, and does not In
tend to do anything of the kind. U<
■ays that his position in the senate is
that of a representative of the principals
of tbe Farmers' Alliance, and that he
will be entirely independent of both of
the old parties, and will vote for or
against measures brought before the
senate as bis judgement may dictate.
This statement of Senator I’effer will
disabuse tbe minds of the Republicans
of tbe Idea that he would vote witii them
against any attempt to reduce the tariff
at tbe next session of congress.
Ths State encampment Grand Army of
the Republic at Indianapolis has dtnounced
Or. Wyeth’s article in the Century Magazine
as a “falsa and Infamous libel on the milita
ry honor and civil Integrity of tbe state,"
and appointed a committee or five to pre
pan evidence to break the force of It. That
committee has a tough pelce of work cut obt
tor It —Jacksonville I Imes-Unlon.
Or. Wyeth was a Confederate prisoner,
and at tbe request of the Century Maga
zine be gave his personal experiences in
• Northern prison. The truth hurts;
aai the fact wed known to thousands
ot Southern soldiers that Andersonvillc
was a haven of rest compared to John
son'* bland, Camp Chase, and other
Northern prisons, now first officially
brought before Northern reader* causes
a terrible howl to go np from people
who weren't there and knew nothing
about it Let the Century stick to the
text and bring out all ib. facts. Histo
ry must be vindicated, regardless of
^hose feelings are hurtP
TBE TIMES-BECOBDER'8 CANDIDATE.
The three candidates for the Alliance
presidency met in Atlanta by chance and
bad a love feast over their prospects.
Now that tbe Iiatcbet is burled, Tue
Tiues-Recorder takes it for granted
that all three of them will be ready to
withdraw in the interest of harmony,
and that a* new inan can now be brought
in without antagoniziug anybody or any
thing.
Believing that Americas contains as
good men for any any alt positions, from
speaker of the bouse down, as any other
part of tbe state and that it is the duty
of a paper to support its home people
against the world, Tue Times-Ke-
<'order desires to announce a candi
date for the presidency of the Alliance.
This is done without the knowledge
• consent of the gentleman or any of
his special friends, and having in view
only the good of tho order and the pro
tection of the state from the danger that
might result from weak leadership in a
dominant movement.
The pre-eminence of Southwestern
Georgia in agricultural development en
titles her to have the executive head of
an organization which has It in Its pow
er to do so much good if properly di
rected, and without seeking to usurp
the functions of the Alliance, The
Times-Retobder beleives that it makes
no mistake and is in line with the wishes
of Southwestern Georgia Alllancemen
when it suggests the name of Col. D. C.
N. Uurkhalter as the man in every way
qualified for the presidency of the order.
The fact that tie is not a confederate
only renders his merit the more conspic
uous, and The Timeh-Recorder be
lieves that he ought to have the hearty
and unanimous support of all good al-
liancemenin Georgia. His usefulness
would not be hampered by the antago
nisms invited by the candidacy of other
prominent alliancemen now before the
public, aud all things considered, no
better thing could be done than to con
fer this favor on him, and through him
on Southwest Georgia and Americas.
Hkiii art will have an opportunity to
to take a practical step in making new
designs for the standard dollar, the half
dollar, the quarter dollar, and the dime,
under the call issued last week by the
director of tlio mint. Each accepted de
sign may receive a reward of 8000, be
sides the honor of that enormous circu
lation and at least brief contemplation
of one’s works that falls to those whose
skill is expended on coin or paper cur
rency. That some of the designers prize
this reputation is indicated by an initial
letter unobtrusively worked in on botli
sides of the silver dollar, and by three
initials on the twenty dollar gold piece.
It Is only tho silver pieces, by the way,
that are now to be beautified in design,
if the skill of the artists and the good
taste of those who pass judgment will
permit. The chief need of Improve
ment in the gold coins was that of with
drawing the diminutive dollar, so eaey
to loee or mistake; and that has been
done by the Fifty.flret Congress. It is
hoped to procure for the eilver pieces
eagles that conform to the accepted
(acts of natural history and possibly
a liberty that will be an improvement
on the present emblem.
Mr. Jacod Siklil, of Macon, re
ceived, the other day, a curiosity of
journalism. It is a German newspaper
callsd “Dor Wcsten” (The West) pub
lished in Chioago, and on the front
page Is an address to the people of that
city calling upon them to vote for Carter
Harrison for mayor, printed in thirty-
five languages. It takes about that
many languages to go around in Chicago,
where tile greatest pride of the so-called
citizens is that they know less about the
laws of the land than they do about the
English laeguare. The governor of Ne
braska has to publish bis official notices
in ten languages; last year a convention
of Euroyenns of American residence
and voting privileges, met in Milwvukco
and demanded tiiat their children he not
taught tlie English language in the pub
lic schools, supported by the taxes of a
stato of the American Union. That is
the sort of people unrestricted immigra
tion is dumping into the United States.
Tiie Kansas City Star in noting tho
fact that Congressman Crisp of Georgia
will speak at the coming Kansas City
Commercial Congress, alludes to him as
Crlspl. Our Western contemporary has
been writing a good deal about Italy
lately. But the Georgia congressman is
a bigger man than the ox-Italian pre
mier. He is likely to be the next speak
er of the house, and that office affords
more power than any other In the world,
if the occupant chooses to exercise it.—
