A hill has passed the Uou«c making
prize lighting a crime in this State.—
Now let there, he a similar bill passed
against the barbarioua foot ball game,
Cleveland’s message was simply a
drchirntimi favoring legislation for the
classes against the uue -ee. It was
same old ‘song of ’02 sung r.
The body . f Jim Smith, a Itevcuu
f ,(liccr, was found in au old well near
3fonti< clk), Jasper count v, in this State
on Saturday last, It is supposed he
was murdered by moonshiners.

The Dalton Atgtft aii , ises the people
in its vicinity to plant a big chicken
crop next year, ns the North (Jeortria
SIcthodist Conference meets in Dalton
naxt year. This is a wise suggestion,
......— - —
drover Cleveland’s menage was
surprise to the people; they fully un
del-stood his plan. His message asks
tor the retirement of greenbacks, and
jo enlarge the privilegea of the nation¬
al IjaAhr.
Mr. Watson’s lawyers arc now tak
jug testimony in Augusta, in [the con¬
test case for Mr. Black's seat in Cmt
press. Thc testimony is being heard
before Dr. ^am 'J ■ Foils, .Jr., of that
city.
The Anti-Barroom Dill was put upon
its passage in the House Wednesday of
last week, and it failed of a constitu¬
tional majority. The vote was 75 for,
to 02 against, the bill, It lacked 13
votes of a constitutional majority.
The State Penitentiary Committee
has made an investigation of the differ¬
ent convict camps and reports that the
convicts are all ill treated, and not sup¬
plied with sufficient clothing. The re'
port whs ti red hot one.
The business failures during Novem¬
ber amounted to nearly nine millions
of dollars. That is the sort of pros¬
perity Cleveland's financial policy has
brought. Ho is great only in evil.—
lahmaelitc.
We learn that the town council of
Sparta, Ga. has raised the liquor
license for another year from §<>00 to
S3,000, and but one application lias
been made for the increased license. -
The party that makes application for
the license will no doubt have a mono¬
poly of the whiskey traffic in Hancock
county another year.
President Venable, of theJStatc Sen¬
ate, has introduced and had passed in
the Senate, a bill to levy an additional
tax on the liquor dealers of Georgia for
the purpose of establishing and main¬
taining an inebriate asylum. The bill
levies an additional tax of $J<‘> on each
saloonkeeper every year. It is not
known whether the House will pass
this bill.
The Sparta IsbmaeUto burls sarcasm
at Senator John B. Gordon, who was
elected to the United ,State's senate
from Georgia and who, though draw
ing a salary as a member of the senate,
refuses to occupy a seat in that body:
‘‘Senator Gordon suspended bis lecture
tour long enough to attend the opening
day of the session. It isn't every man
that would make such a sacrifice to
public duty.”
When the patriotic spirit of the
masses shall assert itself at the ballot
box, then we may expect to see a radi
cal change iu our governmental affairs.
Cleveland's policy coupled with the
action of the past Congress has
brought untold suffering to our land.
Let the common, thinking people,
retlect seriously over the situation of
affair*, and in future lend their aid in
placing ibis country on that broad
platform of “equal rights to all, and
special privileges to none.” So long
as the people submit to the unjust leg
iilaliou now heaped upon them.so long
will they be slaves. The more power
given the money changers, the more
power thev exercise over the toiling
masses. The proper way to lift this
yoke of oppression is for the rank atnl
tile of the common people to unite
their forces against unjust legislation
and vole w ith that party that declares
most emphatically for the rights of the
people.

FROM THE PULPIT TO IHL BAR.
T lie Christian Index of Jackson,
Tennessee, has the following to say of
the Uev. Julius Feicke leaving th*‘ pu.I
p,^ p, engage in the sale of intoxicants.
\Ve fully indorse what the Index says:
“When a minister ot the gospel can
step from the pulpit to the saloon he
has certainly passed through a strange
stage of transformation. Such has just
been done by (he (Uev. Julius Feickc,
pastor of the First German Evangelical
Reform < lunch, in Monmouth street,
Jersey City, New Jersey, liis congre¬
gation, because of a debt of $5,000 was
able to pay him only 3F700 per year.
Ho importuned his friends to add to
the amount; they failed to do so. Re¬
cently lie resigned, went to Hoboken,
New York, and opened a sa'oon. Now
with a suit of black, gold rimmed glass¬
es and a white necktie, which give him
a clerical appearance, assist d by his
youngest boy, lie deals out whiskey
and other beaverges to his newly
made customers. When asked why lie
went iuto the saioon business, the ex
clergyman quickly replied: “Because
there is more money in the salocju.”
Of course there is more money in the
saloon. And when these preacher's,
who are more after money than they
are after souls, will doff their livery
and go where they naturally belong,
the better it will be for the cause o!
Christ and the faithful self sacrificing,
soul-loving ministers that remain.

Cleveland devotes the bulk of his
message, sent to congia *s on Tuesday,
to abuse of the greenbacks and free
silver coinage. In his heavy way be
repeats the wearisome platitudes which
ho has learned from \5all street as the
parrot learns to say “Folly wants a
cracker.” Cleveland is a genuine
Bourbon; he learns nothing and he
forgets nothing. He may be described
nlliieratively as a man who is stiff,
stout and sturdy in Mature; full, fat
and tunny in face; proud, ponderous
and pragmatical in propetisitica.—
Nonconformist,
In 011c of Aesop’s fables we are told
of a pack of dogs, which upon finding
some hides in a river, decided, as they
eonld not reach them, that they would
drink the river dry; the result was
the dogs burst themselves in drinking
before they reached the hides. Thus
will it be with the silver Democrats
in their effort to rescue the party
chinery from the gold-bug’s grasp.—

Old John Shevman has let out the
secrets of some dirty deals by some ot
his fellow partisans, and now if the
other fellows will open up on old John
they would not have far to go to find
pay dirt. There are a good many
things in John's life the public has
been curious about for years, but lie
does not enlighten them any in his
book, liis work and connection with

Taking all these things into consider¬

the demonitization of silver. Ir-c east

congress to assent to his view*, and the
Sherman act was repealed and silver
was practically driven out of tb* field.
