TO OIK FRIENDS. The time of the year lias come when Thk Timks-Hkcordkk must needs col lect what is due it in subscription ac counts. Knowing that the vast majority of subscribers were farmers who had little if any cash to spare these hard times during the past spring and summor, call has been made on them for payment, because the management know the be honest and honorable, after years of busfnoss dealings, and that they would pay in the fall. Through the kindness of creditors, tho publishers of Thk Timks-Rkcordk have been enabled to w ait on you all during the summer for your subscrip tion accounts, and as almost everybody owes from three months subscription to over a year, you soo that thousands of dollars are due. A dollar is a small matter to you, but 5,000 of them amount t o a great deal,to the business of this paper. We have stood together in tho hard times that we have all passed through, Thk Times Ukcoudkr telling you the truth concerning all matters affecting your welfare and Interests to the best of its knowledge and power at all times, Without money, and a good deal of it, a first-class paper cannot be published Every dollar due is badly neoded; look on your paper whore your name is posted and see how mucli'you aro In ar rears. Don’t wait for the agent to call; i the money in by postoffice order, postal note or registered letter and greatly oblige your friends, Thk Timks-Rkcordk THIRD l’ARTY MEN, READ TIII.NJ President Harrison has been in a furi ous l-age since tho result of the guberna torial election In Georgia was known Thursday morning. The scales dropped from tho Presi dent’s eyes and it is understood, on the highest authority, that he furiously sent word to the managers in Now York to dump the Southern programme over board and from this time on conllno operations and money to the pivotal States In the North. To a gentleman he aald Sunday night that the only satisfac tion he could get out of tho Georgia election was the sorry figure cut by tho Third party. “I have washed my hands of the South,” the president added with < siderable temper. “It la a land rebels and traitors who care nothing for the sanctity of the ballot, and I will never be in favor of making an active campaign down there until we can place bayonets at the polls. I am now more than ever in favor of ramming a foice bill down their throats.” TUB GEORGIA RETURNS.

Not that there hasn’t been an 70,000 Democratic majority down in Georgia all the while, but don’t you rather believe that it was you a* much as any other cause which fon i d It out and made the valleys i sound with the walls of Third partyisi Gn at old Georgia! True to the pr cipld Of Democracy; true to honest gov ernn ent; true to tho white supremacy; true to courage and integrity in high place; true to the people, Demo crats all over the country arc applauding ur good work of yesterday. You have omphasized the fact that the old order of things is not dead; that pasMDg heresy cannot wipe out the mem of reconstruction Iniquities and cnipotba# rule, and that the Democratic party alone Is that which shall hold tli ribbons from the chariot of popular gov >ent. to Gen. Weaver, who is now in our t. lie is all right. He went Arkansas and spoke from one end of the State to the other. The Demo atio pluralties wero about 00,000 I In went down into Florida and made mself conspicuous in the battle against organized Democracy. Florida, which ral years ago was claimed by tho Re publicans as a doubtful Shite, bang! Democratic by about 27,000 majority and Imr general assembly there a but Democrats. Then tho Georgia instance. This same great ’‘Feoplu’s” party leader next tai kled Georgia.

He at tacked Democracy and pleaded f< clous measures which had been concocted to dazzlo and capture the masses. And Georgia’s 70,000 Democratic majority i: the unequivocal commentary. Hero lie is In Tennessee. Let’s have as much of him as he wiii allow. Let’i see to it that lie invades every county tho Stato and from every courthouse’s steps have the opportunity to 'show his presence to our honest people. IIo is going to Pulaski on Saturday. lie should not be harmed. Ilis services a valuable for Democracy. His labors make the political skies rosy and Demo cratic majorities grow. Stay with and instead of 10,(XX) majority Tonnes soo can pledge to Grover Cleveland and Peter Turney 100,000 majority. And as Tennessee goes, so will follow the Caro Unas, Virginia and Kentucky, in all of which this arrant political persuader has unfurled his mighty Up and daunted his distasteful presence.— Nashville American. A FAIR ELECTION.

Of course, people told lots of lies on me and sue cceded in defeating mo. However, 1 hope Mr. Hopkins will do ail tho good things he lias promised.

A. Brow n has obtained a lease of the Opelika (Ala) Knitting Mills for another year, and states his intention of putting in considerable additional ma chinery and employing forty or fifty more operatives. Mr. Brown has gone to Boston, Mass., to purchase the addi- tional machinery. The plant turns out seamless and ribbed hosiery, and has been very successful, having sold its goods in twenty-three different states during the past year. An order for a Urge bill of goods was recently received from Canada. Gkx. Eagle Bi rd Gbi hr, of New Jersey, has decided to be a candidate for the United States Senate.

What will Brer Hoke Tinlth say to such a piece of political gerrymander as thin by Grover? THE ALLIANCE MAY HE SAVED. A step In the right direction, taken now, would probably do much toward saving the Georgia alliance from threat ened disintegration. The election on last Wednesday furnished conclusive proof that the majority of Georgia far mers do not sympathize with or favor the wild and Impracticable demands of the People’s party. They know that the Democratic party is reliable and that its platform is broad enough and strong enough for every fanner to stand upon. The fact that thousands of the best far mers In Georgia stood upon it last week proves that conservative men place bounded faith in it. If the Alliance weie withdrawn from politics, absolutely and immediately and put back on its origiual basis, as educational institution, leaving its mem bers free to vote In November as they please, it would probably regain much of the lost prestige. It has been demon strated that both tho Alliance and the People's party cannot survive. The life of one means the death of tho other. And if,one must go, which would tho farmers prefer to retain, the organiza tion which has bcnelitted them, and may benefit, them again, by reducing prices and disseminating useful infor matiou, or the one that lias been a con atant source of trouble and annoyance, and can nevei be anything else? The Alliance some time ago made a winning tight against tho bagging trust; it made another winning fight against high prices for supplies and agricultural ma chinery ; It was getting Into good shape to dictate tho size of the cotton output and, therefore, the price of the staple, when selfish politicians dragged it into politics. On tho other hand, wliat has the Peo ple’s party done for the farmers? It has torn tho Alliance asunder, causing it to loso as much as half of its membership; it has arrayed town against country; it has made enemies of neighbors; it has catered t6 the remnant of tho carpet-bag party in the South and menaced good government; it has raised up demagogues to preach socialism and violence and poi son the minds of the people; it has revived social issues between the white and the black man. it has slandered the legislative power of the nation and tho executive power of the State; it has revived sectionalism between tho North and South by nominating for tho highest ollicc in the gift of tho people a man who was a venomous hater of the South, a man whom the North regards as a dan gerous crank, but respects because he a Federal soldier. These and other things the People’s party has done dur ing its short existence. But it is need less to name more. Those mentioned e enough to condemn it. The question for Allianccmen to con sider is, will they follow this party fur ther, or drop it at onco and save the Alliance? It would be worth 1,000 mem bers to the order for Colonel Peok to take tho initiative in rescuing the order. —Savannah News. CHOLERA NEXT YEAR. Tho Constitution gives a timely warn- g when it says that many exports in this country and in Europe predict an epidemic of cholera next year. They say that it will sleep during the winter and leap into activity in tho spring. This may be true of countries and localities wlioro ncgligonce invites dis ease. But we do not look for the Asiatic post in the United States. We have al ready had a general cleaning up, and our sanitary authorities aro prepared to keep ovorything in order so long as the slightest danger threatens us. It is now understood that the cholora will not attack clean cities and clean people. With ordinary prudence we can keep tho plague out of this country, and the chauccs are in our favor. Hut if it should come early in tho spring wo may look out for tho collapse of the World’s Fair, to say nothing of other disasters consequent. When so much depends upon our sanitary safe guards it is not likely that any backward step will be taken in this respect. OPPOSED TO SUNDAY REST. Three thousand retail dealers of Co logoe, Germany, ‘have petitioned the Federal Council and the Emperor abolish the new Sunday rest law. They assure the Emperor that Sunday rest tends to make employes not more religious, but more pleasure-seeking and discontented. The petition adds that statistics show that unfavorable to morality and bad political economy to hamper trade, and collect experience from the ruin many traders. The chamber of com merce of upper Bavaria is preparing agitate the question, holding the same views as the Cologne petitioners. The theory of these shrewd Germans is that the way to keep their cleiks from breaking the Sabbath on their own accouut is tQ compel them to break it the Interest of their employers. .Shutting up shop on Sunday hampers trade; and this is “bad political econ omy” and “unfavorable to morality. This sort of doctrine sounds strange American ears; and any chamber of com merce in this country that should pro mulgate such a manifesto would find itself in an orthodox hornet’s nest, to speak, in short order. The fact is, as the above seems to indi cate, that the Sabbath in its strict sense has about played out abroad and is los ing ground iu this country, save in the interior of the Southern States. PERPETUAL MOTION. The announcement Is made of the success of tho revolutionists in Vene- uela. The overthrow of tho Venezuelan gov ernment will have the usual results. The defeated leaders will leaves the country with ample fortunes, and Crospo and his associates will proceed at once to feather thoir financial nests. In time, other hungry patriots will “pronounce” against the government, drive out Crespo, loot the treasury and in turn be driven out. As illustrative of the instability of the governments of our Latin-American neighbors, it may be stated that during the past sixty-two years Mexico has had iifty-four presidents, one regency and one emperor. The Argentlno Republic promises to furnish the next revolution ary sensation, and it may be presumed that some of the Central American States will soon better their records this direction. AH of which forcibly points 1 witticism of poor old Dom Pedro, while at the Philadelphia “Cen tennial” in 1870, who subsequently fell victim to this revolutionary spirit Being told that the great Corliss engine mado some 400 revolutions a minute, ho said: “That beats a South American Republic.” PUT THIN IN YOUR PIPE. Editor Walsh, of Augusta, asks that the rank and file of tho recent whelmed People’s party make a note of the following facts and take in the situ ation exactly as it Is: Gubernatorial Candidate Peek failed carry his own county. Mr. Gorman, candidate for secrotary of state, lost his own county. Mr. Ivoy, candidate for the comp troiler-generaiship, failed to materialize in bis own county. Mr. Ware, candidate for State treas uror, did not carry his own county. Mr, Melialley, who desired to be attornoy-general, went down in his own county. Mr. Barrett, tho candidate for com missioner of agriculture, failed to carry Richmond county, by tho largest ma jority in Georgia. What raoro need be said? Wore men over so thoroughly and properly re buked and repudiated before In tho his tory of this country? Never! In No vember next tho rest of the leaders— those who are posing as Congressional candidates—will be dealt with in a slmi lar manner. Tiik position of Judge Cooley in re gard to tariff reform has long ago been defined in his “Constitutional Limita tions.” The Philadelphia Record (Ind.) “In that great work Judge Cooley lays down tho doctrine that stitutionally a tax can liavo no other basis than tho raising of revenues for public purposes,’ and that ‘whatever governmental exaction has not this basis is tyrannical and unlawful. A tax upon mports therefore,’ continues Judge Cooley, tho purpose of which Is not to raise revenue, hut to discourage and pro hibit some particular import, may well be questioned as being merely colorable, and, therefore, not warranted by the constitution.’ The democratic doctrines have never been so clearly stated.” A RIG NEWSPAPER. The New York Herald of Sunday was a mammoth affair of 40 pages, which, If folded tho size of Websters unabridged, would make a book of 184 pages, contained over 21 pages of solid adver tisements set in fine type (tho Herald never prints “display” advertisements) for which there was paid down cash in advance for that issuo alone over $10,000 estimated at its lowest rates, JO cents a lino for each insertion. The New York Herald is a bigger thing than Tub Timks-Hkuoudkk, at least on Sunday’ Georgia having cleaned up the Third party in 1802, will now clean up against her next worst enemy, the cholera, in *803. These two diseases are both just alike in that neither wlU have a man who Is politically and personally clean. T ~~~ T” * Polonrl Livingston, the strongest .“**?*“* ..

The plant* are magnificent prop erty, being immense car works, and will likely be sold, as the company ha* been in litigation for some time and the plant* ato Idle. Each bidder will have to deposit $20,000 as an earnest of his intentions. Tiik Republican electoral ticket of Georgia will not be fused with the Peo ple's party. This was decided at a meet ing Monday of the Republican candi dates. The question was put to them whether half of their number would not give way to tho same number of the People’s party nominees. The refusal wss emphatic. Thus there will be four electoral tickets voted In Georgia—Re publican*, Democrats, People’s party i and Protectionists. Tiik Atlanta Constitution says that over one hundred men and women have pledged themselves to aid struggling and ambitious young women of Fulton county, to gain a good normal and in dustrial education in the state’s college, located at Mllledgevllle. Of these, eight are life members, two have paid $25 each, and one lady has donated $100 for the benefit of one girl who is now student in the college. Out of twenty applicant* for the benefit of tho loan fund, only two were able to pass * suc cessful examination before Fulton coun ty’s school commissioner, J. N. Fain, s< that the association has been able to ex tend aid to ouly those two girls. Thk Thomasville Enterprise says that put of the machinery for tho tobacco factory has arrived. In a short time now cigars will be turned out. Can aime Americus man explain why Sum ter county Is not showing suoh a degree of enterprise as might not have enabled Tiik Timks-Rkcordrr to make a similar publication for Americus? Tub November election will bo a con est between Democracy end Republi canism. The consideration of ell minor parties has been removed by tho recent state elections. The people will decide between the party of local self-govern ment end reduced texetlon end the party of force bills end high tariff. i READ AND REFLECT. With the Lodge national election law In full force in the South and various Democratic strongholds up North, may confidently look for a different state of political affairs than now exists. Si York city will then return several more Republican congressmen than at present, while more than twenty negro re pie sentative8 from tho .South will render the Republican control of tbefutur gress absolutely safe and sure. Heavy taxes should be laid upon the property of the whites to develop and extend tho public school system of these states, Separate schools for the two races should be abolished, and the plan of bringing the youth of both colors into close and equal relation in schools and churches given a fair trial, as one of the most potent elements to break down tho de testable Bourbonism of the South. The state laws against the inter-marriage the two races should be repealed, and any discrimination against the blacks the matter of learning trades or obtai ing employment, should be a criminal offense, while the colored man’s right, to hold office should be sacredly pro tected and recognized. A few years this policy will solve the race problem satisfactorily.—Washington National Republican. REORGANIZING TIIK GEORGIA CEN TIIAL. The special committee, of which II. It. Hollins, of Now York city, is chair man, having in charge the rehabilitation of the Central Railroad and Banking Co.’s affairs, has taken steps that indi cate a belief in tho solvency of the coin pauy, and that evidence good chances of success for Its speedy reorganization, proposal was tendered tho syndicate headed by Speyer & Co., which ad vanced tho $3/750,000 about a year to meet pressing obligations, that on and after October 3 II. B. Hollins •! would be prepared upon five days’ notice to hand over a check for tho full amount of the loan. The offer lias been a ccpted and the loan will bo carried by syndicate beaded by Hollins & Co. 1 a result of this arrangement a largo batch of securities which wero held as collateral for the loan will be placed in the hands of those friendly to the work the committee has in hand. A deal reported to have been affected by which the 42,000 shares of the Central stock held by the Richmond Terminal will be exchanged for Terminal 5 per cent, bonds held by Hollins & Co., which, if true, would give this firm control of tho Cen tral. IN THE SWEET BYE AND BYE While some Democrats believo in free trade theoretically, and believe it would be tho best thing that could happen to this country, every man of them knows, as do those protectionists who are rals ing such a howl about the free trade bugaboo, that free trade is a practical mposslbility for the next half century, until the war debt is paid, the half-mil lion pensioners and tlioir cousins, tliei sisters and their aunts die, a new navy is built, tho sea coast fortified and the Re publican party with Its extravagant roc ord utterly destroyed at an early date. Were free trade voted unanimously by the Fifty-third Congress, and tho bill .approved by the president, it could make little difference in the actual situa tion for many years to come, certainly not In the life of this generation. When get able to bavo free trade tho coun try will bo ripo for it. Meantimo, the first thing to do is to defeat the Republican party, and bcgl: the work of retrenchment and reform. President J. Harris Cii (president of tho Girls’ Industrial C«>1- lego at Milledgeville), in a recent letter, states these fact* in reply to a question, If there would be a vacancy for a young lady who is studying for an examination in December: “It is not probable that there will bo a vacancy at Christmas. Even if one should occur, there girls right here on tho ground that would be eager applicants for it. 1 have turned off more than :100 applicants from the dormitory this session. Our school had a most glorious opening on the 21st lost, We enrolled on the first day 2(12 pupils, and they have been coming in constantly since, until now we have 501 present, coming from 02 different counties in the State. I shall soon have to begin turning off pupils from the college, just I have been for weeks turning them off from the dormitory. If we had suffi cient accommodations hero in the dormi tory and college, I am sure wo would have 500 pupils present by the 1st of January.” nKRK is what Senator Teller, (Repub lican) of Colorado, says of the infamous force bill: “I have read that bill with care and attention more than twenty times. I read it in the light of calm consideration. And I repeat that if it were presented to me now the alterna tive of partly support or dismissal, 1 should not vote for the bill. A more in famous bill, In my judgement, never passed the threshhold of tho doors of the Senate. Avowedly in the interest of good government, it was instigated, in my judgment, by men whose interest it was to prevent a full expression of the will of the voters at the polls.” Mr*. Leasi can make stump speech e* all right, but *he cannot rote. She / Is paired with Mr. Lea**, of Kansas*— Savannah News. I N. A. Dunning, editor of the national organ of the People’s party, says the re sult of tho Georgia election was “not different from what had been expected. et Candidate Weaver solemnly an nounced that he would undoubtedly carry Georgia. Who was doing tho Third party lying, Dunning or Weaver? Franck seems to be taking great In terest in our World’s Fair. It Is said that the French exhibit at Chicago, especially In the department of fine arts, will bo the !arg**t and handsomest ever mode at any international exposition outside of Paris. Tub next bouse of representative of Georgia will have 158 Democrats, four teen People’s psrtyites and three Repub licans. SUMTER AT TIIK FAIR. Mr. JsincH F. Ross Will A*aln Represent the County »t Macon'* Fair. To Thk 1 imks-Recordek—I am on the tapis again, but not so comfortable as when last beard from. The political news is gratifying, of course, and I have no heart for rejoicing, but rather mortified that such an un timely step should have been taken by many heretofore classed with the sup porters of true doiuocracy. The true principles of democracy, like the Bible, will never be obliterated. Furthermore, I notice in your columns that the state fair is likely to bo entirely democratic in consequence of a boycott by tho third party alliance, hoping hurt Macon financially for tho egg insult given General Weaver and party. The Agricultural Association of Georgia li representative body of tho farmers of Georgia, irrespective of party politics, and Macon pays $2,500 annually to have the fair held there—the most appropriate place in the state—and receives none of the benefits of the patronage of the park. Nome few sales may be made by merchants to visitors*, but not in amount sufficient to cover tboir obligation. The greatest beneficiaries are the railroads, and their arrangements being eo conven ient for going and returning in the day for considerable distances, no great per cent of the visitors remain over even for a night in tho city. This contemplated boycott by those people, like their po litical aspirations to get into power and control the United .States government, untimely and deplorable, and more likely to hurt themselves than otherwise. However, if this fight is to be made, lot all remember my announcement as the democratic candidate for the fair from the county, and regardless of party prejudice or favor, and solicit the sup port of all. Owing to my disabled con dition I am behind in preparation homo but expect to bo In Americus on the 20th and will hold over the 21st to get up all that I can from the city and surrounding country. As heretofore, I will stato that any thing In tho way of produce, and other- ise left at Council & 3fcGarrah’s will be cared for, returned, or sold, as direc tions given, with name attacbod. J.
