JUDGE CRISP IN OHIO
H»m. Charles F. Crisp, Georgia’s fa
mous Congressman, arrived in the city
at an early hour this forenoon and was
driven direct to the Kell House, where a
Post representative met him shortly af
ter his arrival. Mr. Crisp is a remarka
bly line looking gentleman, above the
medium height, with a pleasing address,
whose found, full face, adorned by a
mustache, gives oue hut a faint concep
tion of the great reserve force and ora
torical power he possesses and which has
made him one of the foremost statesmen
of the age.
Speaking of his reception in Ohio Mr.
Crisp said:
After you have sent us a remittance,
please look at the next issue to see if
the date mark on your paper is changed
opposite your name; if so, that is your
receipt for the money seut. If we ac
knowledge receipt by letter of all remit
tances, as some subscribers have asked,
the postage alone would cost us $25 to
$50. If a remittance should fall to
reach us, as indicated by the expira
tion mark, write us, aud wo will adviso
you in regard to it cheerfully.
PLEASE READ THIS.
A blue pencil mark around your name
and date means that you are in arrears,
and that we are very much in need of
money. We have many hundreds of dol
lars due us, and as it takes fifty dollars
a day to run our establishment, our
creditors must be paid, and paid at
once. I’lcase send the money by regis- ^ of Democ^y.^ And un!°ss the^tlde

A CONDITION, NOT A THEORY,
Here Lies a Theory: at 8 p. m.—“Mrs.
Cleveland, I have noticed a wofui popu
lar ignorance of the effects of narcotics
upon children. Now, my dear, I have
determined to carry out my tbeory re
garding the rearing of children. You
will, therefore abstain from ever giving
Ruth any syrups, paregoric or like
stuffs,” shrewdly surmises the Memphis
Appeal.
“All right, Grover, dear. I shall
throw away all the sedative medicines,
shall I?”
“Certainly, Mrs. Cleveland, certainly.
Throw that physic to the dogs I will
be one man who will show enough prac-
“I have made eight speeches in your state tical interests in human welfare to op-
and have been greeted »verywhere by large
audience*, uni lisve had a very delightful
visit. I have found the people of Ohio hos
pitable and kind, both Hepunlleans end
Democrats, and shall ever kindly remember
their treatment of ine.
“As fa; as my observation goes I find the
Ohio Democracy united and enthusiastic and
feeling confident of v.otory for the entire
state ticket, while not unmindful of the ad
vantages to he gained and the n<ossify for
securing control of your state legislature
and I believe the party will succeed in both
instances.
“I have noteJ with pleasure the Interest
taken by the industrial classes of Ohio In the
discussion of the tariff question, which « nly
needs to he understood by the people to
cure a verdict ag Onst the measures enacted
by the Republican party In the Interest of a
few millionaires, and of which Majo^ McKin
ley is now the acknowledged aud only cham
pion of any consequence.”
In reference to the speakership contest,
in which it is generally believed that
Mr. Crisp’s chances are at least as good
as the best, the gentleman modestly de
clined to have anything to say except
that the contest now being waged in
Ohio is of paramount importance and
that his whole time and attention is now
directed to contribute whatever lies in
his power to aid in a triumph for Ohio’s
grand and brilliant governor, whose suc
cess is prayed for by the Democracy of.
the whole country.—The Columbus Ohio
Post.
THE EIGHT IN OHIO.
The clans have met in Ohio and every
inch of ground is being hotly contested
by both parties, each claiming victory.
It is now thought that the farmers are
the uncertain quantity, and the way they
go so w ill go the coming eioction.
The big cities will be the lighting
grounds of the Republicans. Money will
be used without stint, and the bosses
hope to control the vast Moating vote of
Toledo, Columbus and Cincinnati, and
thus overcome the large Democratic
gains in the rural distiicts.
Judge Crisp has put in some powerful
strokes for Gov. Campbell and the sue-
press.
Col. John Temple Graves goes to
New York at the invitation of Governor
Hill to make speeches in the campaign
in that state.
Senator Pasco of Florida attended
as a delegate, the meeting of the Flori
da state alliance. The Ocala platform
was indorsed but the Senator voted
against it.
Mb. Robert Bonner is not at all cast
down by the faot that Sunol has carried
off the laurels, and lowered the record
of Maud S. Ho owns both horses and
is proud of their achievements.
v Ciiauncey M. Depew says that a
’thorough study of Macauley’s Essays
gives him that turn of thought aud
happiness of expression which have
4nade him such a success as an after din
ner speaker.
Vast crowds are thronging to the va
rious fairs now in progress, and the oth
ers to follow this week will be as well
patronized; and yet there is still aery
in some quarters that there is no money
in the country.
The lion Ignatius Donnelly is accused
of corruption, and his suit of libel
agaiust his accusers is now being tried.
The issue of it will determine whether
Mr. Donnelly is a Baconion in his system
of linancial ethics.—New York Sun.
turns, Democracy will come around all
right in November.
“New York is importing English bar
maids. An English barmaid, with a
red neck and mole on her upper lip, is
a beautiful sight. Ward McSwallow
tail’s four hundred will probably begin to
infest the barrooms.” Editor Howell, it
may be surmised from this paragraph
never saw a genuine English barmaid on
her native heath They aro selected for
their good looks: and as a class aro the
prettiest women in England. The most
faultlessly beautiful woman the writer
of this ever saw was an English barmaid
in the Colonial Exhibition In London in
1880.
Mrs Lease, the Mery and eloquent
denunciator of soulless corporations and
the plutocracy in general, is a woman of
superior talents and much capacity for
managing. She travels on a railway
pass.—Chicago Tribune.
The Times-Recorder has received
the first issue of tho Albany Daily Her
ald, the uew venture upon the stormy
seas of journalism. Editor McIntosh is
a good fellow; aud in spite of the pros
pects, The Timph-Recorder wishes him
success, lie w ill no doubt do a great
deal more for the public than the public
will do for him.
Eugene Garcia, the paying teller
the Louisiana National Bank, is a de
faulter in tho sum of $190,(X)0. This
was a great surprise to the banking and
commercial circles of New Orleans. The
defalcation will not in the slightest de
gree impair the solvency of the batik,
which is one of the strongest in the
South aud fully able to stand it.
Secretary Blaine has been inter
viewed on his way to Washington to ro-
sutnc his official duties, and ho declares
that he is enjoying excellent health and
an appetite, the demands of which he
finds some difficulty in meeting. This is
a neat way of intimating to his friends
that they can go right ahead now and
boom him for the presidential nomina
tion.
Editor Bayne of Augusta has a sly
way paying backhanded compliments.
Ilesays: “Mr. John T. Clayton of Co
lumbus has secured a patent on a water
wheel which may make a revolution.
“May make a revolution” is good, for
a wheel that is patented for tho very
purpose of revolving in great style.
‘Georgia will indeed be proud of Cecil
Gabbett when he becomes general man
ager of the Chicago & Northern rail
road.” Does that mean that the further
Mr. Gabbett gets from Georgia the
prouder Editor Bayne feels?
The late Albert Lamar, formerly of
the Macon Telegraph, so nearly resem
bled Blaine that their photographs were
frequently mistaken one for the other.
In the Atlanta office of the Telegraph,
up ou Broad street, there are now two
life-sized photographs, one of Blaine and
the other of Lamar. Both facos are
strong aud intellectual, with something
of tho master/ul and leonine in them.
Tho expression of tho eyes and poise of
the head aro similar. Both have tho
large uose, proverbially indicative of
originality and force of mind, and even
the head and beard are alike.
pose, by precept and example, all stupe
fying of infantile brains with poisonous
drugs.”
And Here Comes a Condition: at 3 a.
m.—“Mrs. Cleveland, I do wish you
would get up and look for the paregoric
or something else to make this calliope
go to sleep. I am tired of this noc
turne.”
“Why, Grover, you know you told me
to throw away the paregoric and sooth
ing syrup. Your theory—”
“Excuse me, Mrs. Cleveland, but It is
a condition not a theory that confronts
us now. No paregoric in the house?
That’s nice. I suppose I’ll have to jig
this out until daylight. Oh, that mine
enemy would have a baby. I’d give the
vote of the New York delegation to see
bald-headed Dave Hill prancing around
like I am, and no paregoric in the house.
‘Ilu8h-a-bye, baby, on tho tree top.’ ”
HOW SHALL WE RANK?
Mr. Edward Atkinson has written a
letter on banks and banking to The Bal
timore Manufacturers’ Record. lie does
not reach definite conclusions, but lie
does make some valuable suggestions.
He agrees that the national bank is not
equal to the needs of the people. It is
important that the country should bo
out of debt, and the country cannot
keep its bonds outstanding just in
order to give tho banks collateral for
business.
Mr. Atkinson also contends that the
government should withdraw from cir
culation its own notes, known as green
backs or legal tender notes, “which aro
only evidences of debt incurred by way
of a forced loan during tho war.” They
are a bad form of circulating medium,
because their in Mow and outflow corres
ponds only to the income of the govern
ment by way of taxation, and to the out
goes of the government in its expendi
ture. These periods of income and out
go do not correspond to the ebb and
Mow of business transactions. It follows
that this kind of currency cannot, and
doos not adjust itself to tho necessary
conditions of business.—Augusta Chron
icle.
STEADY IMPROVEMENTS THROUGH
OUT THE SOUTH.
The Manufacturer’s Record, of Balti
more, of October 24, in reviewing the
industrial progress of the South, says:
“Reports from all parts of the South
show a very general improvement in
Mnaticial matters, almost unprecedented
cotton receipts and heavy foreign ship
ments, a somewhat stronger feeling in
iron, and fairly liberal sales both of
charcoal and coke iron, and a marked
change for the hotter in the disposition
of capital to seek investment in this sec
tion; railroads are crowded with busi
ness, and in some places cars cannot be
had fast enough to move the traffic
offered; manufacturing enterprises of all
kinds are running on full time and earn
ing fair, and in many cases large profits.
In general industrial matters tho week
lias been a busy one, and a large number
of new enterprises have been organized,
At Sheffield, Ala., some big deals, in
volving the investment of several million
dollars, have been consummated; in
West Virginia three coal mining compa
nies with an aggregate capital stock of
about 41,000,000. Three phosphate min
ing companies have been organized in
Florida; a $50,000 bottling company at
Atlanta, Ga.; a $20,000 iron ore mining
company near Cedartown; electric light
works at Fort Valley, Ga.; a $100,000
water and electric light works at Mari
etta, Ga.;a $25,000 brick company at
Buena Vista, Ga., and a $150,000 land
improvement company at Atlanta, Ga.
John Hoey, the deposed manager of
tho Adams Express Company, began
with its founders, Mr. Adams and Wm.
Dinsmore, both now dead, in a cellar on
Broadway, at the time James Gordon
Bennett and Horace Greeley were estab
lishing their great newspapers. Patrick
Farrellv was also then in a base nent on
Nassau street, establishing the American
News Company. All were poor when
they began and struggled hard; but
every one of them succeeded in making
many millions.
A SHORT CROP, SURE.
The Boston Commercial Bulletin
alludes to the fact that enormous re
ceipts of cotton have caused prices to
decline. The Bulletin does not believe
that heavy receipts now warrant any be
lief that there will be a large crop. Last
year the fanners marketed only a pari
of the crop in tho fall, and held back the
rest on the plantations. This year the
roads are in good condition, aud farmers
are selling the crop .as fast as possible,
So that while there was always a stuplus
on the plantations last year, there is
no such reserve to draw from, and this
fact will bo shown in the smaller volume
of later receipts. Weather has been very
favorable for picking, and this has swol
len the present movement. Again there
will be no top crop this year. Last sea
son fully a million bales were picked
after the usual time of ceasing to gather
cotton. Turn year the dry weather in
September caused the plant to ripen and
stopped its growth, so that practically
all the cotton that will be produced is
now open It is believed that November
will see tho virtual end of the picking
this year, while in the last crop it cx
tended into January.
Estimates lrom reliable soufbes do not
much, if any, exceed 7,500,000 bales,
though some more sanguine talk of
7,750,000 bales. So that in general the
statement that the crop will fall a mill
ion bales short of last year’s yield, 8,050,
000 bales, is practically accepted.
It is claimed that $50,000 a day is wa
gered by women at the GarMold Park
race track in Chicago, and that numbers
of women faint away after every race,
Also that women have been known to
pawn their husband’s clothing to get
money to go to tho track and gamble,
So proMtoble has the business becoina to
the management that they are arranging
to put heaters into the grand and keep
tired plugs pelting around the track
in tho snow and slush all winter.
The New York Times publishes as a
genuine sensation, that while Mrs.
Lease, of Kansas, has been hurling
anathema at corporations and railroad
kings, she travels all over Kansas on
free passes. That’s nothing, there were
several scores of railroad w reckers in
the Georgia Legislature that did worse
than that; they not only travelod on free
passes over the railroads they sought to
destroy, but they drew mileage from the
state treasury that was appropriated for
the sole purpose of paying their railroad
fares.
Tiie Columbus Iron Works have just
completed a two-story wooden structure
on the bank of the river above the
wharf, to he used in making experi
ments with different kinds of ice-mak
ing machinery. Mr. Abe Ellis, who
formerly owned tho Macon Icp Works,
ts pushing \fic work along on his 30-ton
ice factory in Columbus, which he says
will be in operation by the flrst of Jan
uary. This will make three ice factor
ies in that city besides the brewery.
The Augusta Chronicle is going to
build a new f office, with all the modern
improvements and conveniences. Tho
building will he four stories high, and
will bo fitted up in elegant style. The
Western Union Telegraph Company has
leased tho ground floor for ten yeas, aud
will also use a part of the second lloor.
The Chronicle though over accutury old
is one of tho most ably edited papers in
the South and in its new’ house is good
for another century.
The Times thinks tho criticisms of
the Georgia legislature by tho pie&o of
the state have heeu entirely too severe.
The Times has felt it to ho a duty to
speak frankly on the same subject, and
tho criticisms which it thus made may
have seemed severe; but tho Times does
uot fail to appreciate the fact tiiat the
legislature lias been an earnest body,
really and honestly trying to do right.—
Brunswick Times.
A newspaper office is a place whore
all men cotne at some time in their lives,
Whether it be to bring a marriage an
nouncement, or a funeral notice; to ad
vertise a lost dog, or a pocket book
found; to learn the latest election re
turns, or find out who won the suburban
to request that his name be left out, or
to “see the editor” for putting it in; to
work a free advertisement, or to read
his own proof; to ask for old exchanges,
or to make a few friendly suggestions
about how to run the paper; to modestly
putin an announcement for office writ-
ton in his own hand, but signed “Many
Voters,” or to tell the city editor that
used to be a newspaper man myself;”
to bring a waiter from tho church fair, or
to toll about a lynching bee—at some
timo in his life, and for some purpose or
other; nearly every man living visits a
newspaper office.—Augusta Chrouicle,
IIon. Henry Watterson says: “But
truly, if the skies should rain silver, if
silver dollars should he heaped up in
the valleys so that those who are making
such an ado about more money could fill
their sacks and baskets aud could carry
it away with them, it would, under the
present tariff system find itself hack to
tho present custodians of tho wealth of
the country, leaving the farmer as poor
as ever.”
Two of tho largest and most enthusi
astic Democratic meetings held in Ohio
wero in tho cities of Cincinnati and
Cleveland, where it was said tho greatest
bitterness existed among Democrats
against Campbell. The Republicans are
not getting very much comfort out of
tho alleged hostility to Governor Camp
bell.
It is said that great curiosity prevails
in London with regard to Mrs. Parnell’s
papers. Before tho discovery of tho in
trigue between Mr. Parnell and Mrs.
O’Shea, she acted as the medium of com
munication between Mr. Gladstone and
Mr. Parnell. It is said that she now
holds letters of a very compromising
character from Mr. Gladstone and other
prominent politicians, and that since
they can no longer do Mr. Parnell any
harm, she intends to publish them as
tending to vindicate her character.
Mrs. Parnell is liable to create a sensa
tion, as she lias nothing to lose in tho
way of reputation by publishing any of
Parnell’s private correspondence. It is
however, difficult to see how political
letters compromising Gladstone and
others can possibly vindicate tho private
character of Mrs. Parnell.
So it seems, according to the Tiihuno
of Rome that the Georgia editors were
not tiie only ones who were snubbed by
tho “Grady monument committee.
The snub was generously extended to
the representatives of several New York
newspapers who came along with Gov
ernor Hill to report tho ceremonies at
tho unveiling of tho Grady monument.
These press representatives somehow
couldn’t understand the treatment they
received, and sent red hot excoriations
of the committee back to their respect
ive papers.
WOMEN AS FARMERS.
The prosperity of the farmers of the
South as a class depends upon raising
their own food supplies. When this
shall have been done and cotton be made
a surplus crop, the agricultural interests
of tho South will prosper as never be
fore. In Georgia the women have taken
up the matter, and at a late meeting of
the State Agricultural Society it was
unanimously resolved—
1st. That we respectfully and earnestly
urge each and every f rincr in Georgia to
survey from his farm from five to ten acres
o land Adjacent to Ills dwelling, said acre
age to he known as 4 The Wife’s Farm,” and
It shall he devoted exclusively to the culture,
on the intensive plan, of grain, grasses and
vegetables to supply «n abundance of food
for the table, feed for horses anil mules, poul
try and pigs of the barnyard, and for the gen
tle Jerseys of the dairy.
21. That the 4 uwburul shall pledge Ills wife
that he and ell of his employes shall work in
said “Wife’s Farm” one-half hour or one
hour each working day during the year
before breakfast, while the wife Is cooking or
having the same prepared.
.‘Id. T 'at we consider this an easy solution
of the vex-d question of commercial inde
pendence, contentment and happiness of our
Southern farmers.
After doing this Mrs. Wm. H. Felton
of Cartersvillo was requested to under
take the work of organizing a club in
every county in the state to press this
matter upon the attention of the farmers.

President Inman of tho Richmond
Terminal Company denies the reports
of dissension in the Terminal hoard, and
General Thomas authorizes the follow
ing statement: Referring to many re.
ports telegraphed over tho country about
tho Terminal’s affairs, I wish it clearly
understood that I am the personal friend
of John II. Inman and John C. and Pat
rick Calhoun. I have not now, and nov.
er had any disagreement with them and
no trouble exists about the relations of
tiie companies in the system. I regard
John II. Inman tiie strongest, ablest and
most important man of the organization
with more power and capacity to man,
ago tho present situation than anyone in
tho Terminal Company. There is no
truth in tho statement that I havo been
required to assist him financially in any
manner. I am not a candidate for his
placo nor for any other, and under no
circumstances would I accept any posi
tion in connection with tho Terminal
Company without Inmau's full approval
and cordial support. —Savannah News.
According to tho Cincinnati Enquirer
there is in Ohio an 8-ycar old girl who
never heard of God. She is perfectly
familiar, though, with the name of Mc
Kinley, and knows all about American
tin plate.
The Republican organs, in order to
got tho manufacturers to put up money
for McKinley in Ohio, aro claiming that
lie is elected that tiie victory of tho
Republicans will settle tlio tariff issue
for all tho timo. They said just
exactly the same thing in tho campaign
of 1888, when Cleveland was defeated,
hut the tariff issuo was not settled
worth a cent, and it will never he set
tled until tho tax is taken off tho ncces<
sarios of life, and the tariff is limited to
the expenses of tiie government ccono-
ically administered. Tho election,
therefore, in Ohio, will he nothing more
than the skirmish of tho great battle that
will bo waged for tariff reform in 1892.
