As i specimen of linked imbecility
long drawn out, the bill of Mr. Smith of
Greene to tax base ball games is just
now in the lead. Now let Mr. Solon
Smith of Greene get after the little boy
with a tax on leap frog, muble-the-peg
and tag; and his name will go down to
immortality with a brass ring in its
nose.
Dunn’s report of the financial situa
tion is far from gloomy, and a* soon as
the people quit crying “hard times” the
better off will the country be. There
will be plenty of money to move the
crops, and there need be no fear on this
score. Americus will have enough to
pay for ail the cotton raised within a ra
dius • >{ 200 miles of the citv.
The August report of the department of
agriculture at Washington makes the
condition of cotton 5$.ft for the whole
country. In some portions of Texas
the crop has suffered from drought,
while in other states there have been
excessive rains. Upon the whole, the
condition of the cotton is good, but is
reported late in all the states.
Agriculturist A. Ai.len of the Ma
con Telegraph may not know a single
tree from a “scooter” or a ‘ bull tongue,”
but be plowed a straight furrow lu the
bottom land of truth when ho said:
“The most charming feature of the crop
reports is the high condition of corn in
the southern states. Georgia will proba
bly make the best crop in years. A good
corn crop will go far to offset tho low
price of" cotton.”
Julian Hawtiiokxr contends that
there i* a time coming when speeches
will bo unnecessary. If that’s so Mr.
Hawthorne would confer a groat favor
upon sutfeiiug humanity by so arrang
ing events that Mrs. Lease and that
epoch could get together “hmnejitly” if
not sooner, liut as Mr. Hawthorne’s
statement is avowedly a part of a work
of fiction,’.there is apparently Uttle hop
for us.
Dk. Woodrow, the celebrated evolu
tionist, has ovoluted himself Into the
chair of president of the South Carolina
college, after being dragged out in va
rious Presbyterian synods until very
little unevoluted hide was left on his
anatomy. Ills unorthodoxy seems not
finally to have been to his disadvantage.
In fact, to be heretical, these dogs seem
to have some decided advantages; as
witness the case of Ilcnry Ward Beecher,
to say nothing of various less distin
guished men who hoard popular favor.
The railroad committeo of the house
has agreed upon a report unfavorable to
the,bill by Sibley, of Cobb, for a -cont
rail road passenger rate. This is as it
should be. The legislature cannot
make any mistake in leaving this mat

fate, he will have this supremo consola

The Abbeville A Waycross railroad
will be completed to Swain, in Irwin
county, by October 1st. This road is
now being operated only thirteen miles
—from Abbeville to House Creek. Its
running expenses are WOO per month.
During the month of June its freight and
passenger traffic amounted to £1,700,
leaving a net profit of £1,300.
Wilcox county contains at least one
farmer who Is not affected by tho price
of cotton. We refer to Mr. James
Smith. He has raised only three bales of
cotton since 1842. In 1S42 he planted a
three-acre patch in cotton, and it made
about three bales. He picked out one
bale, carried it to market and sold It for
cents per pound. That gave him
enough, so he plowed under what was
left of the cotton, and swore off forever.
He has never planted any of the fleecy
staple since, and as a natural conse
quence, he is a prosperous, substantial
farmer with plenty o f his owh “hog and
hominy.”—Rochelle Recorder.
In Monday’s issue of the Atlanta
Constitution Mr. Livingston, in an inter
view, stated that he was surprised at
Mr. Watson’s card; that there had been
no consultation upon this question, and
that unless something in the future
shoulc prove to him that Crisp was an
enemy to the Alliance, he should certain
ly cast Ills vote for him. Mr. Crisp is
in favor of the Ocala demands in sub
stance. He has battled bravely for the
cause of tlie people, been prominent in
the great tariff reform fight, aud led the
opposition to the infamous tyrant of the
last house, standing between bis revolu
tionary devices and the great American
people. They are not going to forget
him, neither is Georgia going to forsake
Ids cause. Mr. Watson may fly off and
vote for somo one else, but Mr. Crisp is
going to win. The truth about it is that
Colonel Watson has written more cards
to different journals that' any man who
was ever elected to congress. He is all
the time busy explaining something he
has done, rather than letting the people
take notice of his actions as they see fit.
We trust that the letter of Colonel Wat
son was an utterance similar to that he
made in Atlanta and for which he Is now
sorrowing; but if it is so it will be a
shame on the Democracy of Georgia.—
Athens Banner.
When The Americus Times-Rkcokdkr
asserts that “Mr. Small's going back to Jour
nalism is strongly opposed by hit family and
intimate frieuda,” it utters what Is absolute
ly without foundation; and when the
Southern Afternoon Press” says ••differ
ences prevail as to the policy of the paper,”
it simply Invents a flctlo.i to All out Its lame
and lack-lustre report.—Atlanta Herald.
The Times-Recordeu never made
any such assertion as the double bar
relled parson-editor erroneously claims.
