The Columbus hedger of Sunday came out In a trade issue ot twenty pages handsomely illustrated, showing up the leading industries, business houses and most progressive citizens of that sub stantial city. The Times-Itecohi)hr lias plenty of company in its approval of the govern or's use of the veto. The Dawson Jour nal says: "Governor Xorthcu does not seem afraid to use the veto power. He has already applied it to several unwise and unconstitutional measures ” lx is said that Itoswcll P. Flower many years ago asked his brother In-law, Mr. Keep, what sort of a man was Daniel Drew. "Is he lionost ?" inquired Mr Flower. Mr. Keep closed his oyes and his Ups for ten minutes. Finally he opened Ids eyes, and, looking at Flower, said: "He is ns honest a man as there is In the state of Xew York, but for fear somebody else will cheat him be always begins first.’' Some years ago it was reported that "Old Grimes" was doad; but the an nouncement seems to have been prema ture. At least, the Savannah News now states It as a fact of very recent occur rence. Itsays: "John Grimes died at his home In Bulloch county yesterday at the advanced ngo of 01 years. The deceased was well and favorably known in tide section, and at the timo of Ids death was the oldost citizen of Bulloch county.” Hallway wrecks are coming to be such a common occurrence of late tlias a tele- graphio announcementof a smash-up In volving the loss of from a score to one thousand lives creates little surprise Therefore it is pertinent to inquire what railway commissions are for anyhow? They don't seem to avert any accidents nor even find unybody at fault whon a trainload of jieoplo are killed. Some of these commissions need a lively shaking up themselves.—Savannah News. Senator Calvin S. Brice has just re turned from a trip through Ohio where he has boon studying the political situa tion. The first thing be did on his re turn was to bold a long conference with John K. McLean, editor of the Cincin nati Enquirer, who is living at tbs Fifth Avenue hotel. Alter this conference Mr. Brice talked freely of tbs situation In Ohio and was enthusiastic over the outlook. He said that Governor Camp bell would aweep tho state by an over whelming majority. OI KSTIONS FOR Mil. ClttSI*. Undertlie above beading, the Dawson Journal calls for Judge Crisp's views on two banking matters, wbicli Is repro duced below, together with the Jour nal's comments on the hearing of these issues. Every thing that Judge Crisp may have to say on any subject, polit ical, economic or financial, will com maud tliu close attention of the people of Georgia; and 'The Tuikk-Kkioiidkii would be glad to p,resent bis views on this subject: The Journal is in favor of Mr. Crisp fur speaker of the ncx*|houte of congress. It is not only state pride but h personal pleasure for us to support him. How ever, there are two questions which* we would like to bear Mr. Crisp answer: First, we would like to know if lie is in favor of the repeal of tho ten per cent tax on tbo issue of statu banks? And, second,is lie in favor of state banks being allowed to Issue bills? These are Important questions and the matter of a larger volume of currency to do the business of the country is at tracting more attention than the tarlfl issue. What tho people are demanding and are going to have is more money, They are getting tired of Wall street controlling tbo finances of the entire country. There must be a change in the ordtr of things, and if our national legislators will not read the handwriting on the wall, they will be wiped from the face of the political world. If Mr. Crisp Is not In sympathy with the people upon these issues lie might and would be able as speaker of the House largely to Influ ence legislation in an uudcsirablu direc tion. Wc are inclined to think that he will servo the best interests of his con stituents, but wc would like to heat from him upon the above questions. Wc do not regard a modlllcailun of the McKinley bill as a panacea for all the ills from which the people arc sulTerlng, and Mr. C'lisp might spare a* little time in his public speeches to give bis views upon tho questions of a fuller nnd more tangible circulating medium, one that will not be entirely under tbo manlpu lalion of Wall street, as It is at present. Juikie Gl’SHRT says It Is must too soon to discuss the next congressional campaign, but It is generally understood that .he if a candidate. Judge C. B. Wooten, of Leary, was hero last .Satur day and be talked vory much like lie would be In the race. Tom McIntyre, of Tbomaavllle, also haa aspirations, and it Is said that Dr. nand, of Baker, will try to enter with tbo Alllanco support. The present indications are that we will have a lively campaign in this district.— Dawson Journal. Yesterday’s Constitution baa the following in relation to Harry Brown and bis new Alliance paper: ‘The an nounceraent made in yesterday's Consti tution to the effect that a new Alliance paper, to be called The Lecturer, would be started in this city at an early date, created a good deal of talk. Much spec ulation was Indulged in os to who would bo tbe editor of the new publication, The editor will, it Is rumored, be Capt. Harry C. Brown, late of tho Southern Alllanco Farmer. Tbo fact of Captain Brown's connection with it will Insure a large patronage among Alllanccmen. His well known ability as a writer and his devotion to the Alllsnco principles mark him as a man well equipped for the place. The company will, so it Is understood, be a strong one and will be supplied with ample capital to make the pa|ier a success. W. S. Copeland, the state lecturer of the Alliance, will be president cf the company." Ex-Conoressman Norwood of Geor gia, who has exhibited a morbid desire to return to the United States sonate, and hns thought that endorsing the A1 liance demands would be tlie surest nnd quickest route by which to roach the goal of ambition, has ooncoctcd a new sub-treasury bill, which ho proposes to submit to the farmers at tbe something better for the old bill, ne claims to have met all the objections urged against the old plan and that bis measure will stand the closest constitutional test that may be applied to It. But he has not yet made the details of bit Ideas public, and Is said to have gone to Washington to submit It to Polk and Macune. He bad such bad luek in his race with the Alliance against General Gordon that we had hoped bo could subside for awhile at least.—Montgomery Adver tiser. It is rumored in Brunswick that Mr. J. II. King, formerly the manager of the Oglethorpe hotel and the Hotel St. Si mon's, will have charge of the magnifi cent uew hotel at Tampa, Fla., known as the Tampa Bar hotel. This hotel was built by Mr. Plant, of the Plant Invest ment Company, and Is said by many to be a liner hotel tlian tlie Ponce de Leon of St. Augustine.—Times.

Editor Lambert and all tbo reporters resigned. Tbe immediate resumption SUNDAY AT TOE WORLD’S FAIR. There is just now a great stir in re ligious circles about keeping the World’s Fair open on Sunday. Southern people generally, and some few people elsewhere in the country are strict constructionists on the Sabbath question and are protesting strorgly against Sunday exhibition: but the sen timent of the northwest, and of Chicago in particular, is widely different from that prevalent in the south, and it is safe to predict that the fair w ill boom on .Sunday in spite of church opposition Tbe sacreduess of the Sabbath is a thing of the past in the west, if it ever was known there at all, and being re garded purely as a day of recreation and rest from work, there is a strong senti- inept there for Sunday opening. Tiik editors are after the legislators It is understood that the Alliance folks promised short sessions of the legisla ture and an economical expenditure of public money. The first pledge has been forfeited, and likewise the second. Tie expenses of government have been greatly Increased, until in order to raise the revenues necessary to meet these ox penses the tax levy is made higher than ft has been for years. Resides these dis appointments of promises, the legisla tion proposed in maLy cases lias been radical, disturbing tbe state, disquieting confidence and making uncertain and hesitating great investments of capital. Some legislation has done positive and great damage, causing a withdrawal of capital from loau and other investments in tlie state. Of course some good meas ures have been adopted by the legisla ture, but perhaps no legislature lias ever n'scmbled in Oeorgia causing more ap prehension and auxiety to conservative people. It can not be mentioned as a body whose collective wisdom and pru dence are commensurate with tlie needs of the state and tho exigencies of the times. The legislators are them selves good men, but they are men un der the iullueuce of unsound political theories and immature political ideas.— Brunswick Times.

OPEKING i And Grand Display of The most unseemly thing recently given publicity is the ventilation of Doctor Tupper’s domestic infelicity by the Atlanta papeis. There seems to have been really nothing in it except a little family spat; and out of this has been manufactured columns of sensa tion, that has without doubt destroyed Dr. Tupper’s usefulness as a pastor in that city. Let tlie Atlanta papers give Dr. Tupper a rest; likewise everybody else similarly unfortunate.. ALLENS’ WILL R. ALLEN. TIM ALLEN. TO THE LADIES!
