The Farmers’ Alliance lias resolved to run a candidate for speaker of the house of representatives. Mit. Joe Oui., the talented city editor of the Atlanta Constitution is writing some readable campaign documents for his paper from Ohio. Joe Ohl is one of the best all-round newspaper men in Georgia Kibes seem to bo raging everywhere. An Amorlcua young man went up to attend the Atlanta exposition, and now can be heard from as follows: “As I passed through Macon there was a Ore, on my arrival iu Atlanta I ran into an other Ure; returning Macon was all lircd, and when 1 come to Amerlcus 1 got fired." Major J. F. Hanson of Macon has jumped on the Richmond Terminal with botb feet. He spoke on the railroad situation to an Immense crowd at Cen tral Park In Macon on Thursday and paid his respects to the managers of the Richmond <t Danville. It is well known that Major Hanson, If a friend, la a strong one; If an enemy, he is s bitter one. The efforts of the Ohio Republicans to do away with the Australian ballot law before the election on Tuesday next has been thwarted, A suit was brought in the Supreme Court of the state, the purpose of which waa to test the con stitutionality of the law, but the case was thrown out of court, and the Aus tralian system will prevail despite the fact that the Republicans are well aware that it will cause them to loso thousands of votes. In a war with Chili, the United States would lcara to appreciate tho advantage of the Nicaragua canal. If such a war should eventuate in the construction of that canal, why then the war would prove a great blessing to Alabama and all the Onlf States. Next to cultivating the habit of thrift and saving, a canal across the Isthmus to the south of us is the most important thiug to which the people of this State ean address them selves.—Birmingham Age-Herald. ed to be found in every woman yet the aptitude for Its cultivation Is inherent because the average woman Is tender, patient and tactful, which qualities are essential in the make-up of a good nurse. As the Institution concerned in the charges is one of the most prominent in the country It is to be hoped that sueh a thorough Investigation of the whole aubject will be had as shall lead up to a recognition of the necesalty of the eatab lishment of training sohools for women nurses all over the land. It It one of tho saddest wants of the age. Distressing accounts are received of the terrible famine that la now devastat ing eastern and southeastern Russia. 'Twenty-five millions of people are on the verge of actual starvation. In many -dlatrlcta the only food of the peasantry la acorns, oak bark and leaves. The cause of the famine la long droughts, lLiecte and the generally Impoverished -condition of the people. Hundreds are dying daily, and the atorles of the suf fering are frightful. It la estimated that It will require one hundred millions to relieve the suffering and supply the formers with seed for another crop. 8icHrrAHr Tracy has decided to name cruiser No. 0, now building at Baltimore. “Tho Mobile," in honor of our sister city. The Mobilo is the same type of ship as the Detroit, which was launched yesterday* and will have a speed of eighteen knots an hour and a powerful battery of rapid fire guns, and her coal capacity will bo sufficient to enable her to cruise at full speed tor a distance of 10,000 mile*. A request has been filed with Secretary Tracy to name one of the armored cruisers of the larger class “the New Orleans." and theie ia every reason to believe that be will do to, as all the targe cities of the country, with the exception of New Orleans, have thus been honored.—New Orleans States. After five yean’ litigation the' high est court in New York declines the Til- den will Invalid on the ground that too much discretion wss given to the trus tee* named to carry out it* purposes. Such is tho decision rendered yesterday by the Second Division ofthe Court of Appeals, which la not considered as strong as tho First. The court divided on tho qneadon. Four judges held the trust clause void. Three maintained that it was|valid. The judgment of the majority Is final unless • rehearing is granted. There is no farther appeal. The result is that th* five millions or more left by Mr. Tilden for s free libra ry end reading room In this city go to tho cont'wttag illative# and’ lawyers. New fork get* nothing. . ■ ; • , ♦ Jr- Va c *' MEN NURSES. A shocking tale comes from one of the prominent hospitals in New York city where men aro employed tut nurses for the sick patients. Charges are preferred that the nurses are not only negligent but cruel and indeed profane. This is not surprising however pain ful it may be to acknowledge It, for it la not to be denied that except in isolated cases such men as are willing to fill the post of nurse are not fitted to be in con trol of the sick room In the absence of the physician. This is one of the special aptitudes of woman, and she should not only be sought after for the duty but every city with 60,000 inhabi tants or over should support an instltu tlon for the training of healthy youug women as nurses, and from these sourc es the smaller communities could be supplied. Whilst the faculty of becoming a nurse in its highest degree may not be expect- Rki'Hesentativb Jerky Simpson was in Washington yesterday fora few hours. He said the Alliance members of the next house would not go into the Demo cratic caucus, but would nominate a can didate of their own. He says that, per sonally, lie favors Livingston of Georgia, and that he believos that member will be the Alliance nominee of the high of fice. Mr. Simpson is direct from Kan sas. He came through Ohio, and says the chances there favor Campbell, and he expressed the hope that Campbell would win. Mr. Simpson was on his way to Birmingham, where he will speak to-morrow, whieb is "Alliance Day,” at the state fair. He will then go to Mont gomery and afterwards to New Orleans, returning here about November 20th. The Pittsburg Diapatcb, a strong daily with Republican leaning, has gone over to the Democrats and is lustily fighting for the Democratic state ticket. This change causos a commotion.—Atlanta Journal. WHO DID IT? A sudden Republican inspiration is to try to show that New York was balked of the World’s Fair by the agency of Southern Democrats. It happens, for illustration, that Mr. Mills of Toxas voted for Chicago. Mr. McMillin of Ten nessee voted for Chicago. Mr. Breckin ridge also voted for Chicago, and various other Democratic congressmen voted for Chicago. This fact is now being urged for tho benefit of the New York Repub Iiuan canvass with equal earnestness by „ome Chicago newspapers, particularly the Inter-Ocean", and by tho local Re publican press. As to where tlie responsibility actually .lea for locating the fair outside of New York wo will readily and justifiably take the authority of the Republican Inter. Occan.Tbat juuraal|has already said,upon an occasion when it mentioned no other cause of a similar nature: “New York and Pennsyvanla Republicans working together did not a little to give us the victory.” The big chief of the New York Repub licans, and the combination of New York and Pennsylvania Republicans, was Thomas C. Platt Behind him stood Benjamin Harrison. The grand old par ty in New. York and Ita eleeted president In Washington wronged the empire state. Vote against them. Vote against Fas- sott.—New York Sun. BIGAMY. One scarcely takes up a paper which covers much territory, but he will read that some rascal la about to bo or haa been tried for bigamy. In Osorgia the penalty for this deed is from two to five years imprisonment Now bigamy Is a very high orlme and the small penalty attached to the convic tion thereof can only be explained upon the ground that the law does not bold the family of the woman entirely Inex cusable. No guardian or parent is blamcloss where there la a failure to se cure full certification of the antecedent! of the man proposing to marryfa woman. A bank cashing a check to the order of an unknown party is held accountable for the loss of the money, yet this is a small matter beside the loss of an inno cent and pure woman to a community. Proof of neglect of duty to a |woman in the premises is culpable to a degree which might very well have a penalty affixed thereto. Out in Ohio the Republican leaden complain that the campaign spoakora 61 their party in New York are ignoring the Issues In the Buckeye state canvass. Fassott, Milter, Ulacock and Depew join in sending the following telegram to Mc Kinley: “Your telegram received, and we regret that we cannot assist you in your canvas* In Ohio, as you suggest, by a vigorous defense of the McKinley bill here in New York. The truth ie our people won’t stand it. We would like to help you out, but our only hope in the campaign ia to avoid every Important leaue. We fought the campaign on your bill hut (all, and were beaten||by over 75,000 plurality, and we have been beaten in every state issue since 1881. How can yon expect ns to fight a campaign on those lines again?" Governor Hill at the Madison Square garden meeting last Tuesday night said that he could not roach for thl* authenticity of this message bat that, If It had not been sent, it really ought to have beonjsent-—Jack sonville Tlmee-Unlon. # Eyas Howell of tho ConsUtaUoo la wreetllng wi th tho Philistines In Haw York, and remarks that hr ."Ohio was as oafs as Now York." “ ' Sr V ' ' ,Vv.1* HISTORY FOR SOUTHERNERS The Athens Banner cannot be too highly commended for its dignified but aggressive stand upon the propriety of the use of Johnson’s History In the Uni versity of Georgia. The Issues Involved In the war of secession are dead; dead because we have agreed to abandon them as issues whether civil or political; but no book which teaches that seceslon was a crime should be found op the pri vate book-shelves of a self-respecting Southerner, and much less so should it be allowed as a text-book in our schools and colleges. It is not surprising that the book comes highly recommend by the north, for it is in perfect keeping with ita ac tions; but not so with us, we believe with the Banner. Do away with such books or do away with memorial day, otherwise solemn voices will rise up from those holy graves and say: You sanction the use of a hook that calls us traitors; that says we died in a cause of wrong; away with your flowers; they are but poison ous weeds.
