How would David B. Hill do, for President, in ninety-two? The recent election demonstrat¬ ed the fact that the Democrats need not be verj particular in their choice of a candidate for Congress in the Ninth. ii If the late J. A. L. were now here he might remark with fervor: "The country is standing on the brink of an abscess, hut the g. o. p will be equal to the exigency.” The present Legislature has a chance to m akc itself very popu¬ lar with the people as well as save the tax payers an immense amount of money. If they will watch their business and do what the people sent them there to do, all will be well. An effort will be made to sc cure betterments by the retiring lessees ot the IV, & A. road dur¬ ing the present session of the Legislature. The members have already absolutely given the rail¬ road influence a big advantage and if they do not mind they will be sold and delivered before they know it. The Marietta and North Geor¬ gia Railroad Company will pay, for the current year a tot a) of f>4, 420.76 for one hundred and nine miles of road which was val¬ ued at 5738,650. Of this amount 1,467.90 go to Pickens, 326.29 to Cobb, 51.040.65 to Cherokee, 5832.52 to Gilmer, and and 1S753,- 40 to Fannin. This tax has here¬ tofore gone into the State treas ary. Organization of the Legislature: Speaker of the House—Hon. Clark Howell, of Fulton. Speaker pro tem.—Hon. Paul B. Trammell. Clerk—Col. Smith, ot Coffee. Doorke^|x:r—Col R. J. Wilson, of Richmond. Prcsinant of the Senate—Hon. R. G. Mitchell. Secretary—Bill Harris. Messenger—R. T. Paulk. Doorkeeper—Hon. L. J. Allred. Representative Hill, of Meri¬ wether county, introduced a bill fn the House last Friday asking that Representatives he paid a salary of 5160 for the session. This would be 54 per day for 40 days, which is the constitutional limit of legislative sessions, II the members knew that their pay would stop at the end of forty days they would be apt to finish up the business in that time and Be ready to adjourn. Can a newspaper please every¬ body! body It cannot. Ought every¬ to be pleased? No. Why Not? Well, if a newspaper pleased everybody, and if everybody were pleased, the time spent here on earth would be so fearfully monot¬ onous that the people would not care how soon the old globe on which wc reposed went to pieces. A newspaper must rattle the dry bones, make everybody mad, he boycotted, kick up Jack, tell the (ruth, expose falsehood, lay bare hypocrisy, fraud and the like, and trust to the sober second thought ot all lair minded people.—Mari¬ etta Journal. Aii Appeal for Gordon. Kditok Hek.m.p. While the State is all broken out in perspiration over the Sena¬ torial race, would it not be well for our people to speak “right out in mcetin’ ” against the Legisla¬ ture laying aside our grand old Gordon and, as the drift seems to be, to take up a man who is the brains of one of the largest 1 ail road combinations in the South, when wc, as alliancemen have banded together against things of that sort and have set forth a dc claration of principles that arc in direct opposition to combinations trusts and monopolies? If they are Georgian, oound to bury that grand old do, as alliancemen, lake up some man though he be cov ered in cockle-burrs, and lets carry out our first intentions, or else place (where he properly belongs) the same man who has always loved the South and her interest and has so nobly stood by her in adversity’s dark hours and the days of peace and prosperity. Alliance. November nth, 1890. A CompariMii ot the vote of two year* ago with the recent election in thin district will be interesting. Here is the total vote of the different comities in the race Candler ami Pickett and the major¬ ities of each, above the river: Cherokee 2 DM) Pickett's majority 204 Dawson 8!I2 Pickett's majority !l " Fannin H 27 Candler’s majority I" Forsyth 1 803 Pickett's majority 577 Gilmer non Pickett’s majority r () Habersham 1040 Candler’s majority • d Lumpkin 062 Candler; Majority Milton 1135 Candler’s majority I jl Pickens 10 is Pickett’s majority 436 Rabun 461 Candler’s majority 117 Towns 471 Candler’s majority 112 I’nioti 051 Candler’s majority HA White liliO Candler’s majority GO In the recent race between Winn, Darnell and Pickett the vote was as follows: ('hcrokee 1 (ISO Winn’s plurality 252 I )awson (.76 Darnell’s plurality Di Fannin 82 ft Darnell’s plurality 2 H 4 Forsyth 1 ( 14 !)

There are about 25,(100 voters in district. How It Works. The working of the McKinley tariff bill is pointedly set forth in the following: The duties on hosiery are in¬ creased from the average old fig¬ ures of 40 per cent to 60 per cent. Brown and bleached linens, tor merly taxed 35 per cent, go up to 50 and 60 per cent. Common grades of knit goods, formerly 94 per cent, are raised to 125 per cent; another grade from 88 to 135 per cent; another from 68 to 147 per cent. Goods costing over 80 cents a yard, used by the more wealthy, are raised only from former figures of 7* pci cent to 90 per cent. I bus thc richest man is the moSt lightly taxed and the poorest man is the most heavily. So in dress goods, I he num grades, bought by the poor man s wife, formerly taxed 68 per cent, are raised to 103 per cent, wnilc the costlier grades used the rich go up 1 only / from Co 1 ccnt . to , 73 per cent. Duties on sealskin sacqucs are reduced. 1 hose on plush, the material for wraps bought by the wives au.l daughters of men of small incomes, are more highly taxed than before. Bin plate, an article that enters into every household, taxed before ac 34 per cent, now pays 74 per cent. Silk goods are unchanged. The rich buy most of the silk. Jewel¬ ry and precious stones bear the same rates. Here again the rich are Cheap tenderly treated. crockery grades of cutlery and while are taxed much higher, the high priced grades have small iiureases. The bill was made to tax the poor for the benefit ot the. rich, and therefore duties were in¬ creased most on those articles which the poor are compelled to buy. Still the Republicans papers and politicians have the audacity to tell the workingmen that the new tariff law was enacted for their especial benefit, and strange to say, a great many of them are foolish enough to believe it, and and will vote to continue in the party that oppresses and robs them.—Birmingham Herald.
