McDonough. Ga., Jan 27,1893.
No county can prosper that sends
from home for every manufactured ar
ticle it consumes.
Jo. Carter is making a success of
the Atlanta Herald—as he does of
everything else he takes hold of.
Mr. A. J. Smith, of Rockdale county,
haß been appointed as a director of the
Experimental station in place of Col.
Peek, whose time had expired.
With “Spoony” Butler aud Jay
Gould “in Hades,” and Grover Cleve
land in the White House, the future
prosperity of our country seems as
sured.
“The Third party is the salt of the
earth.”—Buford Plow Boy. But “if
the salt has lost his savor wherewith
•ball it be salted ? it is thenceforth good
for nothing, etc.”
The great men of our nation are
rapidly passing away. Gould, flayes,
Buttler, Brooke and Lamar have passed
from the busy stage of life into “the
great unknown” within a short space of
time. Who will take their places ?
What the papers don’t know and tell
about President and Mrs. Cleveland
would not by any means fill a volume.
They even go so far as to say that it
will be a boy about the time or soon
after this couple resume housekeeping
in the White House.
Congressman Livingston is being
prominently mentioned aB a probable
successor of uncle Jerry Rusk, as sec
retary of Agriculture. The Colonel
has long since laid aside the “sub trea
sury” scheme. Well, a cabinet posi
tion is something better. Eh ' colonel ?
Hon. John I. Hall, of Griffin, if it
should become necessary to elect
a successor to Senator Colquitt, would
fill that honorable office with credit
to himself and state, although he dis
claims all aspirations for the same.
In point of ability he ranks with the
ablest, men of the age.
Frank Stanton seems to be a self
supplied mill that grinds out pleasing
complimeuts and witty paragraphs ga
lore. There never was, nor never will bo
one that can fill tho position he now
occupies on the Constitution. He is
not only a humorist of marked ability
but a writer of some of as soulful
verses as we have ever read. Frank
L. Stanton is certainly one of Dame
Nature’s happießt freaks.
Will Georgia be represented in the
World’s Fair ? Well, we hardly think
she will. We long to robe our selves
in sackcloth and wallow arouud in the
ash bauk of humility with the rest of
the state press : but owing to the fact
(we blush to tell it) of not possessing
one of the aforementioned gaimetits,
and being unable to borrow one from
any of the neighbors, we are forced
to grin and bear it, boys.
Bill Arp says that 8 cents is as fair
a price in Texas for cotton as 9 cents
in Georgia. Here is a home lesson iu
application of the whole subject:
I was talking to Mr. Shedaker, who
is a small farmer near our town aud al
ways has money to lend. He made
nine and a half bales on ten acres this
year and did it with hired labor, for he
has no children and he says he keeps a
strict account of every cent, and kuows
exactly what he is doing aud that the
crop cost him 41 ceuts a pound. He
sold it for 9.J and is satisfied. He has
something to sell all the year rouud—
some corn, or hay, or a cow, or some
potatoes. He came here poor and has
improved his little farm and built a
new house out of the profits of farming,
lie envies nobody, troubles nobody,
and is a good citizen.
Dick Grubb, o! Darien, who was se
lected as messenger to carry Georgia’s
electorial vote to Washington, was ra
tber late in starting to perform that
duty, and there was uneasiness for
awhile about bis getting to Washington
in the space of time allotted ; but he
did, and Georgia’s vote will be counted
out on February the 7th for Grover
Glevelaud. We never for a moment
felt the least uneasiness about his get
ting there, beiug too well acquainted
with the rural editor for that. Oue of
the profession, who was compositor,
devil, pressman and “general roust
about" besides, has been known to go
to the Alliance meeting, spend a dav
or so in the country hunting delin
quents and other small game, chop
stove wood for family use, and attend
to sundry other duties of a social, po
litical. or religious nature until the eve
ning before publication day without
having struck a lick of work on the
paper, but came out on time, as bright
and eaily as usual. A Georgia weekly
newspaper editor get left? “Never in
a thousand years!"
Justice L. Q. C. Lamar Dead.
The announcement of the sudden
death of Justice L. Q. C. Lamai,
which occurred in Macou on the 23rd
inst., has thrown a pall of sadness over
all Georgia—yea, the South. He was
a Georgian by birth, and, although
Mississippi has been his adopted home
since young manhood, he ever retained
a tender fondness for the old home
state, aud here, where the first breath
of Jife was drawn by this great man,
his pure, spotless soul returned to the
God from whence it came.
The name of L. Q. C. Lamar has
become so interwoven with the history
of our Southland that it is useless for
us to try and tell of the many honors
conferred upon him by his appreciative
fellow-citizens, or of the emioence to
which he arose in whatever position he
was called to serve his people through
the aid of the wonderful intellect with
which he was endowed. In his death
the country loses a scholar, soldier,
statesman, judge. He was a great or
ator. Speaking seldom, he always
spoke with effect His statesmanship
was wise aud broad. He was a man oi
undaunted courage aud independence-
He ranked with the ablest jurists and
most profound scholars.
It is more to be regretted that his
loss should have occurred while the ap
pointment to fill the vacancy occasion
ed by his death is in the hands of a
Republican president and a Republi
can senate, ft is hoped that the l)em
ocratic minority will at least be able
to prevent the appointment to the high
office of a mere partisan without any
of the great qualities of mind and char
acter possessed by the lamented dead.
Justice Lamar’s death is not only a
great loss to Democracy, but to the
whole country. His remains will be
laid to rest in Macon. He has a mon
ument in the hearts and minds of the
people of the South that will stand
wheu the irou tooth of time shall have
reduced to dust the gran'te’round his
tomb.
I)r. Morrison is right. A human
serpent like Bob Ingersol, whose sole
purpose seems to be the shattering of
hopes that have ever made, life more
endurable aud the world better, should
be the last person in the world to invite
to any commumity. The closer man
lives to the teaching of the Holy Book
and eschews tho doctrines of Hob In
gersol, and his ilk, the happier he will
be, aud those with whom he comes in
contact.
The total pension expenditures for
the current fiscal year of the United
States are estimated at $158,000,000
aud for next year sl/5,000,000. Is it
any wonder that the tax payers are
bending under their burdens?
To Organize a New Alliance.
Memphis, Teun., January 22.—The
next issue of the National Economist
will contain a manifesto from a faction
of the Farmers Alliance to members of
the order to repudiate the acts of the
late Memphis convention by forming a
new organization on a strictly nonpar
tisan basis. The manifesto is signed
by J. F. Tillman, of Tennessee, who,
along with his office, was abolished, as
far as the alliance is concerned, at the
Memphis convention. .Mr. Tillman de
nounces the meu who now control the
alliance and reviews the origiu and
growth of the order, pointing out its
original purposes, which he declares
were in accord with the principles of
the democratic party, and which he, as
a life-long democrat, undertook to carry
out aud impress upon its members. Re
ferring to and defining the action of
the late national campaign, iu which
he is charged with treason to the alli
ance by sending out, under his official
signature, numerous documents appeal
ing to the alliance to be true to demo
cratic principles, under which it was
formed, ho says:
I conceived it a duty devolving upon
me, both as general manager and direc
tor of the lecture bureau of the national
alliance, and as au humble member of
the democratic party, to contribute to
the success of a cause commou to the
interests of both. That literature sent
out under my signature aided the dem
ocratic party and contributed to the
defeat of the republican and third par
ties alike, I have no doubt, and freely
admit. In fact, such were my desires,
because the third party in my State,
aud other Southern States, was allying
with the republicans in its effort to de
feat democratic principles. A call will
be issued iu a few days for a conven
tion of the seceding faction, which will
meet in Memphis or Atlanta some
time during April.
A Most Beautiful Calendar
The Columbia cycliug calendar for
'93 is the most exquisite and truly artis
tic of practical calendars for the year.
It begins with February, ’93 and ends
with February, ’94. It consists of a
circular piece of cardboard, 47 inches in
circumference of the pneumatic rubber
tire The picture is in fifteen water
colors, and represents a couutry scene
with a bicycling couple iu the fore
ground, restiug iu a cosey nook, after
a delightful ride. The original picture
is by a celebrated American artist, an I
the reproduction is so close to the pain
ting that one bardly realizes that the
delightful tones and shades are not the
true brush marks. This calendar,
issued by the Pope Mfg. Co., of Bos
