The U<‘i*al<l. One Year, . . . . Six Months, . Entered at tjie Postoffice at Jasper, as second class mail matter S Editor ff. R. MrSCEY, i ail” ruhlixlicr. Jasper, (.‘a.. Thurvlay, May Mr. Henderson, of Eorsyth county, the.new Alliance n for the 9th congressional dis¬ trict. snys that there are eight thousand Alliance Democrats in this fiistiict and that not a man of their, will support Cleveland if he js nominated. Brer Winn says that last year, .single handed anil alone, he whipped thc world, the flesh and the devil, and Duncan too. 1 lore’s lookin' at you, Brer Winn! Kditoi Craigmiles, of the Dm k- town Reporter, touched up the xvhitci tips of his section and they rose in their might and ran him oat bt the country, It is not known wht ther he went north or followed in the wake of Ward's ducks. fpo. Winn has dropped Brand and picked up Ferry. Bro. Ferry has dropped Brown am! picked up Winn. Brand and Brown are not ■ in it.” Winn is “in it” now and Terry expects to he next year. We might remark that Brown and Brand arc two ol the shrewdest men in this district. The W. & A. Commission lias made its report. It gives to the lessees 399,644.04, the amount of taxes paid by them to thc State of Tennessee from 1879 lip the time the lease expired. Nothing was al lovv,efl in the way of betterments. The Dawsonville Advertiser has been enlarged to a five-column. It now looks like a respectable pa- peJOaWl is a great deal better could than some of the larger ones we name. The Neu Party. crystallize. The people’s party has begun to 'lhe discontent among the mass¬ es of the people has been growing and taking root for several years. Different organizations have been .effected,all.scekingto ameliorate the condition of the working Mosses. It is now proposed to unite these dissatisfied elements into, a polit¬ ical party and difhiau'd the reforms that have been alked'for in vain. The National ’’Farmers Allancc and Industrial Union is the lead¬ ing spirit in this move. This or¬ ganization is the strongest and most influential one that has ever been gotten up among the labor¬ ing classes. It is literally sweep¬ ing thc country, and is particulai lv strong in thc agricultural states of the northwest, . Their platform is somewhat simijar to the doctrine of the democrats, and a pooling of issues by these two powers seems quite the free probable. coinage of Tariff silver reform and the are main questions upon which the Democratic party goes before the country. The Alliance goes a lit¬ tle farther but does not ask tor anything that is ■ undemocratic or unconstitutional. k • M ‘o thc “specialist” of the Con¬ stitution: Do you ever feel badly about the way,you treat the week¬ ly papers of Georgia 'oy stealing their news items? It hardly looks reasonable that any newspaper man could be so devoid of princi¬ ple. jt you can’t get a corres¬ pondent at this place who will send you the news, and you must clip from thc Hkk.u.d, come up like a man and give 11s credit. The Florida caucus adjourned last Monday alter a session of two months spent in balloting for the nomination of a' United States Senator. No one could be chosen by the causus and the election was left with the legislature where Wilkinson Call was-elected on the first ballot. Steve Ryan of'Atlanta, tlvg lar¬ gest retail merchant in the South, failed last ijTuesdsty; liabilities $ 1,000,000, a'ssets:about 8500,000. Mr. Ingersplf in one of his re¬ cent oratorical'effors said: "When the keystone was 'He k put in it burst into blosso.m.'' mixed figures almost’ as'ij'adly as Shakespeare, who speaks df “taking np arms against a sea of. f troubles,” or as the country edito r who referred a contemporary as.;-‘a snake in grass up to his arm-pits in pon.—Detroit! Free Press. 1 . Ail Editor 'm Experience. A newspaper can say nice and pleasant things about a man ami I„s whole family tor two oor J years, ’ and then incur their hfetinie enmity . short . . week . , by in one a seeming slight. Yes, it’s a fact; and you can hurrah for a candi¬ date, back his ftiends, cuss his en¬ emies and make a darn fool of yourself all the way through with¬ out a thank in thc end, to find when you arc a candidate that he is “out of politics, »» But there is one man w ho don’t forget you, and that’s the man you opposed.— Exchange An exchange says: No, don’t learn a trade, young man. You might soil your hands, wilt your shir: collar, and spoil your com¬ plexion sweating. Go hang your chin over a counter; learn to talk twaddle to the ladies; part your hair in the middle; make an ass of yourself generally, and work for wages that wouldn't support a Chinese laundrynian—just because it is a little bit more genteel in the eyes of people whose pride pre¬ vents them from actual labor and whose poverty pinches worse than a patent clothes pin.

The people of Georgia owe debt of gratitude to Dr. Macune and Col. Sledge. They came to Georgia and invested their money —furnished by Pal Calhoun—in the official organ of the Alliance, then proposed to sell thc organ’s influence or make it advocate the claims for “betterments” thc Western and Atlantic rail¬ road. How noble and self-sacri¬ in these gentlemen, to say about Mr. Calhoun’s race for the Senate.—Ga. Alliance Even if the Alliance fails to ac¬ all thc political changes which it advocates it will do a work in educating the far¬ mers of the country, The mem- hers study all the economic ques¬ of the clay and in their meet¬ ings look over the proposed come- j criticising their faults and en-1 their good points, These alone will do much to raise American farmer.—Farm and H "~______ Where may be found another! among the rulers of nations could take such an extensive inside the limits of his own ! Ti'S nor King who, without foot op foreign ground, ride 9,000 miles from sea to sea across a Continent, and meet his people face to face in unhin¬ intercourse.

During the month of February the death claims of the Equitable Society were 135 in number, and amounted to S5 12,174. The death claims presented dur¬ ing March were 144 in number, amounted to 8585,440. In accordance with the usual of the Society, by far the number of these claims paid immediately upon the presentation of the “proofs, thus fulfilling one of the most useful functions of life assur- ancc—that of supplying ready money at the very moment when to thc majority of policy-holders it is most needed, and therefore most useful. The incontestability of the uitable’s policies greatly their prompt payment at maturity, inasmuch as it renders unnecsssa- ry, as a rule, the exacting of davits, certificates, etc., expense and delay, which are re¬ quired before settlements can be made by other companies whose policies do not become completely indisputable. Genius, capital and Labor. The poet Tennyson can take a worthless sheet of paper, and by writing a poem on it, make it worth sixty-five thousand dollars, That’s genius. Jay Gould can write a few words on a sheet of paper and make worth five million dollars. Thuds capital. The United States can take an ounce and a quarter of gold and stamp upon it an “eagle bird” and make it worth twenty dollars. That’s money. mKt)amc can , altc thc ma . ja , wor(h # Ho llara and make it into • , a watch , . worth one t hundred . , dollars. That’s skill. A lady can purchase a very com¬ fortable bonnet for three dollars and seventy-five cents, but she pre¬ fers one that costs twenty-seven dollars. That’s foolishness. The merchant can take an arti¬ cle worth seventy-five cents and sell it for a dollar. That’s bus mess. The ditch digger works ten hours a day and shovels three or four tons of earth for a dollar and a half. That’s labor. The editor of this paper could write check for eight million dol¬ lars, but it would not be worth a cent. That’s rough. A Victim of Circumstances. “I might o’ been richonct,” said the man with straw colored whis¬ kers, “but circumstances was too much t’r me.” “'Tell us about it.” “Well, you^ee, it was just this way ’ 1 was workin’ on a farm down here on the Wabash, „ when j I meets a vvidder at a hoedown with a quarter section of ’b.ymt as good | land as you find out doors. ho sorter Atoned to me right £ the ■ Went to Qn J 1 scc er three or tour c times .• an . was gittin . thicker’n winter m’lasses, when I tuck , hc chi „ s an> fevers .
