Pat Cai.ikm Mind ( men C. L. Moses and Ii. W. E spoke Friday at Kennesaw, Cobb coun ty, and yesterday at Gainesville. Mr. Calhoun’s speech was on financial questions. The Economist, the national the Alliance, says officially that it is and has been its policy “to carefully a\'oid personal condemnation of any member of the order, no matter how great the offense or how positive the evidence of guilt.” Kx-Sknatok Fakwei.l of Illinois thus expresses his views on the presi dential outlook. “Cleveland will get the nomination, without doubt, unless Campbell carfies Ohio again, and lie will certainly be elected if Harrison is renominated. But Harrison never will 'nominated. He is too small, nar- line row and contemptible to be chosen >j n ,r again. He lias put men in office all over the country who will have no more in fluence in the convention than Collector iigress- Clarke of Chicago. His appointments have made him enough enemies to kill tances of lording it in tiic white ? another term. Even his own is against him The man who will get the Republican nomination and be ^ the next president James G. Blaine. Of course lie is a candidate. His silence is expected and necessary. His health will not interfere. If McKinley is vic torious it may change the situation, but Blaine would prove the stronger man.” Columbus wants an artesian well, and will spend $*1,000 in the attempt to find water. If, after that amount has been expended, no water is found, the cit£ council will consider another appro priation for the purpose. Columbus should consult the wizard and the switch to locate the well. The legislature has passed a bill ceding jurisdiction to the United States over the ground in Savannah on which a government building will be erected, and the Times calls on the gov ernment to commence work at once. The appropriation is a neat sum and Savannah will have a handsome public building. Mrs. Dr. Felton made a temperance speech in Atlanta Wednesday night, and as siie was leaving tlio hall some one picked her pocket, relieving it of and railroad passes. It takes an expert to find a woman’s pocket under ordinary circumstances, and how the fellow ever found Mrs Felton’s is a mystery which will never be solved. • CUT PRICES Still the Rule at Beall & Oakley’s.

One of the chief things they have done, so far, is to resolute in favor advertising columns. This season is specially appropriate for liberal adver tising.

There is as much distension among Democrats about free silver as among Republicans about prohibition. Tho latter will probably lose Iowa for their hypocritical support of what they know is a fraud, and Ohio Democrats will,cool the ardor of many a tariff re- former by ringing the changes on silver. Between the two, the Third Party men rub their hands witli glee, and renew tlieir couiage nnd their crankeries." They turned out the lights and hurled decayed eggs ut Sain Jones in Houston, Tex., Wednesday night. Such an act will be deprecated and frownei) down on by all the docent and law-abiding people of Texas. But tills will not prevent Sam Jones from opening the vials of hta wrath in his own peculiar style up on the hoodlum offenders. The movement to raise funds for a monument to the memory of the late president of the Confederacy, Jefferson Davis, which was begnn through the press, and to which fresh Impetus has been given by tbe Southern newspapers at a recent session, is meeting with gen eral favor, and tha patriotic effort prom isee to be attended with excellent finan cial results. The Mecklenburg, X. C., Alliance baa resolved that the farmers of the Alli ance in that fine county would not plant more than ten acres in cotton for each farmer. Every member present pledged himself to abide by this agreement. It will work most satisfactorily If they get the other AMmiii to enter into the same excellent and prudential arrange- yon would secu e remunerative price*. Recent financial reports from London show that money can ho borrowed at tho trifling rate of interest of one-half of ouo per cent. ,per aunum. But those loans aro on call and upon undoubted collaterals. It is mentioned in this con nection that a similar condition invaria bly follows linancial panics. Tbe fact that there is money to lend at suck low interest is evidence that the late panic was tbe result of laok of confidence, which is, indeed, the fruitful cause of all panics. A report comes from Chicago that a movement is to be started among High Church Episcopalians or Ritualists of tlio west to resist tlie advance of what are known as the Broad church opinions and principles of men like the newly elected Bishop Brooks of Massachusetts and, in tlieir extremity, by the Rev. Heber Newton of New York. William L. Maiuy said seventy- years ago in tbe senato: “To the vic tors belong the spoils of the enemy." The democrats of “Old Hickory’s" timo adopted it as a motto, leaving off the three superlluous words St the end of the sentence. Now It is written la the concise and pointed form, “To the vfeton the spoils.’’ The labor assembly of Chicago has derided to (sane a warning to the work- ofthe world not to come there In' Reduce the area of cotton It emetnflon of g«tHiig work fa connec- Itlrl aaon.a •• — I .. .

Tho city council of Tiioraasyillc, Ga., has adopted a resolution tc appoint a committee, whose duty it shall be to in augurate and superintend two or three free outdoor amusements every week during the next winter “season,” and to pay the necessary expenses attending tho same. Thomasville is making a strong bid for winter tourists. Old man Ben Dugger, who died at bis home in Fannin county Thursday, was one of the most unique characters Geor gia lias ever produced. He was a phil osopher in his section, and his advice and counsel were sought upon all ques tions by his neighbors, and his words had great weight with the simple moun taineers. He was a republican iu poli tics, and represented his people in the house and senate as it suited him, and opposition was unavailing, as old Ben would get there every time. He was a rough and uncultured man, hut liis heart was in the right place, aud his people loved him. For Cornu, WnrtM and liuniona Use only Abbott’s East Indian Corn Baint. A Boston reporter, who recently saw Mr. Cleveland at Buzzard’s Bay, says that the ex-president looks as if he had spent many a day on the salt water. The sun has browned Ids face to a healthy hue and burned his neck down below his coat collar. Ho is not un comfortably stout and has visibly lost fiefth since ho began to cruise about on tho hay.
