Ixoai.i.b of Kansas i« more of tbe opinion titan ever that It will be Harri son against Cleveland the next time. The late unpleasantness In tbe Tnp- per family in Atlanta has culminated in what the French would call a coup d'etat. It Is a hoy. The annual meeting of the South Georgia conference ot the Methodist Episcopal church south will begin nt Cordole on or about December 1. A promireet minister of the Episco pal church is authority for the assertion that Rev. C. C. Williams, of Augusta, will be the next bishop of Georgia Senator IIi.aikiuii.n of Kentucky fought with Sam Houston at San Jacinto and the Alamo, and once escaped with his life by drawing a white bean when the Mexicans hod selected a detail of Texans to be shot. Mrrchanuisino and cotton growing have reached the limit of ihoir capacity to support population. Lot's put in something else. We need smokestacks in place of counters and shelves.—Cuth bert Liberal-Enterprise. The Constitution hints that the Gov ernor will veto the Whitileid insurance bill, which provides for breaking up the insurance pool now in force. Just why he should veto this bill does not appear, as the object is certainly a good one. 'Sam Shall is never without some sort -of sensation. He is now arrested in Boston for embezzling $1,000 from the Utah University. As Sam is on a lect uring tour, who knows but this may be an advertising dodge on the part of the cute Samuel? Comment) no on tlio defeat of the Ber ner bill, the Tiibune-of-Rome quite coin cides with Tub Times-Kecoihikk ok to the uselessness of such legislation:— “The people of Georgia aro in no danger of being hurt hy the inllroads so long os tbe railroad commission is incorrupt ible.” Atlanta honors itself in erecting a statuo of Henry Grady. While alive he devoted himself and his remarkable en ergy to the building up of Atlanta, and succoedod In making it one of the best known cities of the size in the world. He loved Atlanta, and devoted hla best energies to its advancement, and the . statue is a fitting tribute to hla memory. Editor Christopher, of Montezuma, who la now publishing an out-and-out third party paper, it very mueh outraged that the Berner-Smith bill was defeated, and he usea strong language on the ac tion of tbe Senate. He says: "How much money did It take to bribe the Senate and kill the Smith substitute? If not bribed, every member ot the Senate who voted against It swore to a lie. They swore they would enforce the con stitution, and they failed to do It." It is reported that Albany Is to have another dally paper, which will make Sts appearance between this date and next Sunday. Tbe name will be the Albany Dally Herald, which will be edited by Col. H. M. McIntosh. This la a bad more, for Albany has nevor sup ported one paper In decent style, and two mean ruin for both. Ho city of leu than 25,000 people ha* ever yet sustained two dally papers, and It will never be done until the public becomes vutly more liberal in patronage than hereto fore. THE CHURCH OR THE STATE ? The pope, in a note to the powers, says that the recent Parteon disorders were of extreme importance, and insists that it Is impossible for both the Italian government aud the papacy to remain in Rome. The establishment of King Victor Im- mauuel's throne in Rome was in effect the destruction of the temporal power of the church; and while a show of inde pendence lias been maintained, the fact is that the pope lias for years been a prisoner, whose power outside spiritual matters was limited to the iuue of pro- nunciamentos against the Italian govern ment for Its usurpation of his authority. The pope is a statesman of high order, and no one recognises better than he that even in Italy tbe doctrine of the separation of churoh and state is too strong to be succeufully combatted; and that if the church is to continue to claim temporal power, It must be done outside the seat of government of the king who disputes the claim. The question of the removal of the Holy See from Italy becomes daily one of more pressing importance; but no sat isfactory solution seems to he at hand; for while Spain Is the most thoroughly Catholic country in tlio world, and lias expressed a strong desire to have tile pontitic.il throne established iu her bor ders, thero is yet so strong a develop ment of anti-monarchical spirit there that Spain may not even preserve her status as a Kingdom many years, much less yield herantonomy to the temporal sceptre lit the l’ope. It is freely predicted that the nine teenth eehtury will seo Spain a republic with CaOhlar her president, and under such coUAitlons there would of course be no room for papal authority in tem porary matters. To the broador-minded Catholics it looks like the tomporal power of tbe church would have to go beforo the on ward march of republicanism; and it is now a much mooted question whether the church could not enhance Its spir itual power by relinquishing altogether the dogma of temporal authority, which while potent and even useful In former ages, can no longer regulate the affairs of modern constitutional governments. If tbe Pope would gaiu his consent to forego the claim of temporal power, and move the Holy Seo to the United States, it is believed that one of the strongest coup d' etats of modern history would bo enacted; and that church put upon a higher plane than it has occupied since Apostolic days. How would Atlanta do as a location for the Holy Seo? THE TRAMMELL SUBSTITUTE. The following Is a correct version of the now famous Democratic resolution. Tbe substitute offered by Representative Trammell to the Sibley resolution which was designed to force the House of Rep resentatives to indorse the Ocala plat form was badly marred iu the first pub lication of it by the Atlanta papers. There was a most important omission in that report, and one which entirely changed the meaning and intent of the author of the substitute. In the original were these words: “and complained of by the Democratic party.” Tuese words were omitted in the first publication. Here is the correct version of the substi tute: Resolved by the House or Representa tives, the Senate concurring. Hint our Hens* tors and Representatives iu Congress be, and they are hereby requested to use their Influ ence and votes to secure legislation which will correct the evils complained of hy the National Farmers Alliance and Industrial Union in convention at Ocala, Fla., and complained of hy tbe Democratic party, es peel illy those that relate to the present financial aud taxation policy of the govern ment " BEALL & OAKLEY, Offer this week the fullest and most complete line Lace Curtains in PROFESSIONAL CARDS Americus—Remember LACE CURTAINS!

The Mexicans and Americans who re side in that locality, are very much exer cised over the drying up of the Rio Grande River, so that what was ten or fifteen years ago a steadily llotviug stream, containing at all times a full supply of water, has becomo a pimy, straggling stream of muddy water, or in places a dry bed of glistening sand. In New Mexico the river is tapped by irrigating canals for hundreds of mites, so that whetf it reaches the Mexican frontier the greater part of its water has been withdrawn, aud It becomes a mere thread winding down the middle of the channel. The Mexicans are loud in their complaints of the injury which they have sustained, and say that their lands have been made valueless by the action of the people of Now Mexico, and thoy claim that they have the best right to tbe use of tbe river because of the priority of their settlement in Its neighborhood. Tre Federal crop report for October lodloates that the cotton crop will be smaller than that of last year, but by how much It would ba hazardous to pre diet from existing conditions. The crop ta late, and the chancea are against a repetition of the long and favorable acaaon that made tbe phenomenal yield of 1800. The country la in an excellent condition to aland a smaller production than that of last year, and aa producer! have been complaining of the very low prieea they will be well satisfied with a decreaaed crop. Tub Atlanta Herald la authority for the statement that Cept. Evan P. Howell la certainly in the field aa a candidate for governor against Gov. Northen, and cites sa svidenoe of this, not only the quiet work done with tbe lata legisla ture, bat the announcement of Clark Howell'* retirement from politics, and the lenient attitude of the Confutation towards tha raoord of the legislator*. It assy ba tagarded aa sura that Capt. How- all will ba la tha reset a»d with hla per sonal popularity and tbe prestige of tha Constitution ha will b. a moat formida ble opponent! , /jag- two arils, at In the event of a veto, a called session of the Legislator^ can frame the bill so aa to meet tbe end sought. Richard Connor, tha ebiet sachem ol the Tammany wigwam, pays: “The. speeches of Hr. Cleveland* and Governor Hill will have a great effect and wll unite all good Democrats In support of tbs state ticket. The Democratic cam paign haa been opened, and the Repub lican* will soon find out that they are on tha defensive. Pram now until elec tion day yon Will hear tha Democr aide of all the issue*.

And when pretty neatly enough wealth has been collected by a disregard of all charities of the human heart, and at the expense of ev ery enjoyment, death will finish tho work—the body is burled, the heirs danco and fight over what you have left, and the spirit will go—where? By all means get rich: It will pay—the devil.” Tux Ti!bune-of-Rorae Is as outspoken on ttihdy questions as the Sparta Ish maeiite. On tbe pension bill in the leg lslstflfe H says; “That attempt to give a pension to every Indivldnal Confeder ate soldier in Georgia waa an outrageous piece of legislation. It was simply an attempt on the part of the "93 and a nig ger” to make amends to tbe people of Georgia, and especially to the old sol diers, for the brutal treatment of them In refusing to accept the Confederate Soldiers' Home. But U didn’t work. The bill was killed, and with it tlio men who turned their backs on Hie Confeder ate veterans. To-day Governor Northen will act on the school bill, so-called, either approv ing or vetoing it. A veto would mean an extra session of the legislature, from which “good Lord, deliver ue!” and an approval of it may mean the same thing, as the provisions are so obscure and eon- llicting that the money for the school fund may not be available before 1893.

It is a notable feature of Hie late leg islature that tile conservative element was the Alliance majority, while the rad ical branch consisted of a few lawyers who want to be Alliaucemen and can't, and a few extremists among the A1U- ancemon. If Burner, Atkinson and a few more would-be Ailinnccinen had been gagged at tho opening of the sess ion, not a single extreme measure would liavo gained any headway. Tlio Olive hill aud the Berner bill, the two most pernicious and dangerous measures ever introduced into a Georgia legislature, were fathered by lawyers; while Tom Wauon, who is wobbling between an archy and insanity, is another cx-lawyer. But for the conservative element among the farmers, much more harm than was done, would liavo befallen the state. The Chattanooga Tradesman in its review for the wook ending on Saturday last, reports 02 new industries, 4 new railroads, 2 extensions, 5 electric car lines, and 1 streot car line In the south ern statos during tho woek. The now industries reported for Georgia are a foundry aud machine sh«p at Mllledge- villa; a cotton seed oil mill at Jefferson- ville; a cotton mill, a sash and blind I factory, a woodworking plant aud variety works st Cedartown. Improvements noted for Georgia are an electric light plant at Rome; an improvement company at Covington; water work* at Perry; a railroad from Havennkh to .Smithville; a railroad extension to Atlanta.
