He wants the Americus workiuginen protected from that class who do not assimilate with the people of the country. The Thomasville Timcs-Enterprise says if you will observe closely the men who are loudest in their protestations about “standing flat-footed on the sub- treasury platform with both feet,” you will see that they are not standing at all but are running for some ofHco. If not running now they expect to be running next year. The newspapers when live and earn est help a town prodigiously—are, fact, the most important factors iu build ing up and enriching a town. Live newspapers and excellent hotels are ab solutely essential if there shall bo prog ress and increase of inhabitants in a town. Live towns understand that perfectly. VETO. Good for Governor Xorthen! He has — ! vetoed a bill iucorporating the town of Established 1879.: Ilordaway in Dougherty county. There iiLisiiED 1890. j ih no special merit in this particular 1 | veto, outside of that locality, except as it shows that the governor has at last recognized his right to use the veto at will; and having tasted the sweets of authority, may now be expected “to sail iuto” a good many more bills that sadly need vetoing. Xo governor of Georgia has ever enjoyed such a gold«n opportu nity to reap fame, and merit the thanks of the people by vetoing right rndleft the silly and useless bills that are being ground out of the Legislative hopper by the bushel, and much surprise is felt that the governor has used his power so sparingly. There are probably 500 bills pending that if ever passed, should be promptly vetoed, on the ground that they are un necessary, and therefore pernicious. Let Governor Xorthen rise In his majesty, aud like Grover Cleveland, wipe up the earth with the humbugs that the legislature is seeking to put off on Georgia in the shape uf laws. Let the governor lay them out, and make himself solid with the people, by the bills lie lias vetoed. There never was a better chance for a governor to immortalize hinieelf, and eain the thanks of posterity. Let the vetoes proceed to roll, from now uutil the legislature ad journs. In this ago of keen competition a man roust advertise wisely. He must give the same attention to his advertising that he does to his stock and store. An advertisement forms an impression on the minds of the reader, and it means a great deal to the advertiser that that im pression be a favorable one, and that it be fully sustained in the establishment. —Exchange. Amherst College claims the honor of having been the first institution in the country to make physical exercise a compulsory part of the college courso. Tliis it did iu 1801. The United States and confederate governments by their conscription laws of about the same date also made physical exorciso in the armies compulsory. Amherst shouldn't claim too much. 'Since the Rev. Henry Watterson got his prefix from the Sowanee University, the edge of his orthodoxy seems to ho crumbling. Hear him: “The making of rain by the government will not bf altogether a blessing. It will do away with the goodly custom of praying for rain. When men get everything they want, they will never think to speak to the Lord about it.” The Brunswick Times is engaged iu teaching its readers the lesson that a ^-newspaper is responsible for no senti ments that appear in its columns except those that the paper expresses itself. City politics appear ao bo waxing warm thereabouts; and the Times finds occasion to say that it is the organ of the whole people; and not of any clique or wing. From Atlanta comes this bit of gossip about a much-told newspaper: “The Tribunc-of-Romo, which, perhaps, changes editors as often, or oftener than any newspaper in the state, has at last changed hands. Capt. John J. Seay has sold the paper to Mr. Scantlin, who comes from Lafayette, Hid., the old home of Orth Stein, and it is lie who gave Stein his recent newspaper public ity. Mr. Seay is entirely out of the papor.” The Domination of Evan P. Howell a* tho democratic candUzte for governor of Georgia in in range of probability. In fact, that is the way the Hiatt* U said to be fixed.—Breus- wick Times And when that convention meets, it will bo found tiiftt L. F. Livingston's name will be on the slate and that he will be the next governor of Georgia, unless the Alliance undergoes a radical revolution in sentiment towards their present chief before that time. Look out for Governor Livingston. England has created a decided sen sation in European government circles by seizing the post of Slgri, on the Island of My:elene, near the mouth of the Dardanelles. Tiio recent Darda nelles incident has put John Bull ou his mettle, and ho don't intend to stand on any ceremony in protecting his interests, for his policy has always been to argue with powder and shell. England will bluff until fighting becomes necessary, and then she will tight as long as the next, not excluding the war-like Turk. Look out for a racket in Europe before another year passes. JUDGE CRISP IN ATLANTA. Last night Judge Crisp held the young democracy of Atlanta under the spell of his eloquence in a manner that few men in Georgia could equal. After speaking all over, the country, east and west, it is meet that he round off bis campaign with a routing speech to his home people in the capital of his state; not because his people need any further evidence of bis ability and tit ness for the position to which his call* ing and election seems now assured, but because his constituents wish to show their appreciation of his merits by giv- iog him au ovation such as few men have had since Ben Hill passed away. Xow, let Judge Crisp give Americus a day some time in the near future, when the clans can gather and give him such a send off as will Inn i him right in the speaker’s chair. PRINTERS’ INK. “The road to fortune is through print ers' ink.—P. T. Barnum. “My success is owing to liberality in advertising.”—Robert Donuer. “Frequent ,and constant advertising brought me all I owu.”—A. T. Stewart. “My son, deal with men who adver tise. Y'ou will never loose by it.”—Ben jamin Franklin. “IIow can the world knowa man lias a good thing unless he advertises the possession of it.”—Vanderbilt. After calling attention to the fact •hat only five per cent., or $8,270, of the total Immigration to this country during tho last fiscal year settled in the south, the Xew Orleans Times-Domocrat says: “The question of foreign immigration, therefore, can scarcely he regarded as a pressing problem in this section, since a movement of tbis size is inappreciable In its effects. There is a considerable immigration into the south, but it is from the north ade west, of persons of American birth, so that this section re mains distinctively American in race and nationality.” And it will be the salva tion pt America and American institu tions that this remain so. The Anglo Saxon blood of the south is the conserva tive element of our nationality; and whenever the south parts with this dis tinctive feature through a flood of foreign immigration, then will be in augurated the beginning of our national end. Picture Frames to order aud to our picture-frame depart- Xew York is the hugest of all Amer ican cities, and the proportions of the machinery of its municipal government almost makes your head swim to con template. It Is as complicated as the governments of many foreign countries and the expense is simply appalling. The Columbus Sunday Herald, by Geo. W. Guild & Co., and edited by Jas. G. Browell, is the name of a new* ven ture In the field of long felt wants, that made its first appearance last Sunday. Its salutatory closes with tbis paragraph, the good sense of which is commended to the readers of The Times-Hecorder: Our aim I. the publication of. nr.t-ela.. ment we have JUSt added UCW local newspaper, giving once a week nsjn- j op»ls of everything tint transpires in Co lumbus, Hose IIill, Kart Highlands, Plnenix City, Girard and all the neighboring towns ar Columbus. To establish a paper of this kind requires time, money, brains, patience, hard and diligent work. It requires the co operation of every Interested individual wno reside* within the borders of the city. By giving you a good paper we hope to merit and receive the hearty suppo» t and endorse ment of every male and female reader of the city. PLENTY OF 3IONEY IN NEW YORK. The Xew Y’ork banks have plenty of money. There is no doubt about that. At the close of business hours on Satur day they had $8,722,775 in excess of legal requirements. On the same day of the month last year the amount they held was $3,300,925 less than the legal require ments. They are therefore more than $12,000,000 better off than they wore a year ago. And money can be obtained on call in Xew York at a very low rate of interest, but time loans are difficult to get Tbis condition of affairs explain why there is such stringency in the money market. The loss of confidence caused by the Baring Bros.’ disaster has not been fully restored. Bankers don’t like to let their money go where they cannot get it im mediately If they should need It. They have no particular reason for thinking tbey will need it, but there is an unexplainable something in the q-Jp-f-p fin£* of financial situation which makes them ® extremely conservative. And they could not afford to be caught without sufficient money to meet the demands to which they must respond as soon as made. A great deal more money could bo used with advantage by the banks of tbis city, but they cannot get it from the Xew York banks. They are willing to pay the interest demanded for time loans, but they could not safely bind themselves to return the money when ever it might be called for. Their in ability to comply with this condition Is what prevents them from getting all the money they need. The financial situation is, however, gradually Improving. Confidence is re turning, though slowly. Unless some unforeseen disaster occurs in the finan cial world ft will not be long, probably, before money will be as plentiful as it was before the present stringency be gau.—Savannah Xews.

Sheet Tiiliie is perhaps no man more com petent to testify in behalf of the benefits to he derived from newspaper advertis ing, than John Wananiakur, the great Philadelphia merchant.
