LIFE AND DEATH.
Two snow Hakes born of winter’s storm
Fell through the air—
Two downy Hakes of star-like to in
Beyond compare.
One rested on t lie sun-kissed ground,
And, thawing, died ;
While one a sheltering ice-drift found,
And death defied.
Two human souls, by God’s decree,
Were sent to earth
Each with a different destiny
Was given birth.
One struggled ’gainst an evil fate,
Nor long survived ;
The olher, born of happier state,
Grew strong and thrived.

other ways. The two large ponds
lie side by side with only a small strip
of land separating them, and are sur
rounded by a beautiful oak grove.
Mr. Lemon has stocked one of his
ponds exclusively with carp, while the
.other contains suckers, perch, cat, and
a vaiiety ot other fish.

In the language of an exchange, we |
must say that it is not our purpose to
enter into a lengthy discussion of the
question of finance. What this country
needs is more finances, more money, j
The question of confidence has nothing
to do with it. When money is plenti ;
ful there is never any scarcity of confi
dence. The Weekly has not been
wauting in confidence even in the hard
est of times. We have sent the paper
to hundreds of subscribers without the
cash. We believed they would pay us
for it*as soon as they could get the
money. We expect them to pay us
early. _Our creditors are now ready to
pounce down upon us. We cannot sat
isfy them unless you come to our relief.
Please don’t put us off. The amounts
our subscribers owe us are small to the
individual, but large in the aggregate.
We must collect EARLY. Please
DON’T DISAPPOINT US!

Death of Mrs. Robert M. Walker.
While it is kuown to every human
being that there is an hour appointed
iu which they must die,, still this sad
event always produces a sorrowful time
that pervades our hearts.
In writing this brief nodes of tiie
death of Mrs. Walker it will he un
necessary to enter into an extended de
tail of her life and clmracter. We
shall let it suffice to say she was the
oldest daughter of Mr.jqid Mrs. Joseph
Atkins, late of Henry county, and was
married to li. M. Walker the 2nd
day of Feburary, 181 G. ‘fit tic Jjfd and
character of Mrs. ,v;n well
known to her many frjyuils and ac»
quaiutauee, and tlie stranger would have
hut little interest iu reading an
ed detail of ail that might be said iu a
merited commendation of her many
deeds of human kindness.
For many years she was a sincere
and consistent member of the Chris
tiau church, having rendered obedience
to her Lord and Savior. She had been
in a declining state of health for sev
eral years, but beiug' a woman of m*-
tiring energy site kept up most of the
time until last Friday. She was smit
ten with a stroke of paralysis, which
was beyond the power of her friends,
assisted by medical aid, to arrest in its
fatal work. She lingered in an uncon
scious condition until Saturday after
uoon, when her liberated spirit made
its exit into the “Laud Beyond.”
We are assurred that mr loss is tier
glorious gain Site is now at rest,
quiet, peaceful rest. We would not
recall her to these mundaue shores.
Yes, Rettia, mother has gone and loft
you and Bob all alone. Everything
around tlie old home now will look so
sad and lonely; hut don’t let y<mr
hearts be overburdened. Her time had
come aud she must needs go to the call
of iter Lord aud Master. She will be
waiting and watching at tlie gate for
you. Just at this time she is forming
a new acquaintance with many loved
ones that have preceded her to the
sp'rit land. After a little while and
we will all he on the other shore. Did
you hear tlie shout “Hosanna, iu the
highest !” as she weut sweeping
through tlie gate 3. Let me sny ta
you, dear children, weep not for moth
er, since site lias made such a peaceful
voyage across the Stream of Death.
She weut out on the hark manned and
piloted by Him who said, “Ho that
believeth in me though ho were dead
yet shall he live again.” Go, children,
and plant sweet (lowers that will bloom
over her grave, but look not down in
that cheerless grave for mother ; she
is not there, but up yonder, away up
yonder in tlie glory land, where the
eye never grows dim, nor ti e heart
Bad. Meet her there. W. T. G.
You couldn’t get a girl to confess it,
remarks a knowing one, but it certain
ly is true that the mau she most ad
mires is often—
He whose ideas never coincide with
her own.
tie who tells her point blank that he
hates to see powder on her face.
He who appears blissfully unaware
of her existence.
He who tells other people that she
.dresses in good taste.
He who never says some other girl
looks pretty.
He who alwayg appears interested
when she airs her little tribulations.
lie who declares she looks beautiful
when she kuowi positively that hei
hair is ail out of curl.
He who does not overlook a slight
or forgive hasty words too quickly.
Women or men who hear tales, who
betray confidence and make mischief
with their tongues, are vulgarians of
the most despicable type. They are
dangerous people and should be avoid
ed by peace loving and good mannered
people, says an exchange.

HON. JOHN T. OGLESBY
Writes an Interesting Letter to
Henry County Friends,
At the request of quite a number of
my Henry county friends, 1 tako this
occasion to give a.i account of myself
iu my far away western home.
I am located in tlie State of Nebras
ku, 307 miles west of Omaha, on the
Fremont, Elkhorn and Missouri Val
ley railroad, iu 12 miles of the line of
•South 'Dakota.; aud about 125 miles of
the line ot Wyoming. lam Receiving
K hipping Clerk, aud stationed at
tine lam in charge of a largo
oust 1 , and receive all the supplies
for the Rosebud Indian Agency, which
is located 35 miles from this place, over
iu South Dakota, ,I'hei-e are between
four and five thousand Indians on this
reservation, of tlie Sioux, and under
veiy good control, Quite a number of
them have fought under the leadership
of Sitting Bull, the fighting chief.
Coon Dog, who is a noted Indian,
was in my office yesterday. He is the
man who killed Spotted Tail, the
greatest Indian chief this world Ims
ever produced.
It takes quite a largo amount of pro
visions and annuity goods to supply
this reservation. I have in the last
three days shipped to them over two
hundred and twenty five thousand lbs.
of different kiuds of supplies, and have
just received an invoice of 385 bags of
coffee, 750 hags of sugar, -15,000 lbs. of
beans, 30,000 lbs. of hard tack, 7,000
lbs. of baking powders, and other
things in proportion.
'1 he Indians haul all the freight, and
are paid 50 cents per hundred for the
same. Time is worth no considers
lion. They are only sojourning, aud
are expecting after death to he trans
ferred to the “happy hunting grougds.”
I let the goods out on order from the
Indian ageut.
Tlie have some very peculiar names,
a few of which 1 have taken from my
order book to show tlie Indian’s po
culiaritv: Left Hand Bull, White
Bear, No Good, Coon Dog, Blue Eyes,
Afraid of Thunder, Black Tail Deer,
White Hawk, Turtle Head and Bull
Eater This is a fair sample of the
average Indian name.
The government furnishes them very
comfortable clothing, hut the old In
dian buck has not vet become accus
tomed to wearing them exactly like the
Young American. For instance, they
invariably cut out the seat of the pants
holore they put them on. Quite cool,
1 imagine—especially tvhen the (her
momoter drops down to 30 and 35 de
grees below zero, as it frevueutly does
here.
Valentine is a very pretty little
town, of about 800 inhabitants. It is
located in the sand hills, and we have
some very severe winds here, which
makes it unpleasant at times. We
have three churches, one Catholic, one
Methodist and one Episcopal. We
have quite a number of church going
people, but 1 must contess that the
people of this country do not make re
ligion specialty. 1 don’t think I)r.
Dr. Scott would be very much impress
ed with this country, from tae fact that
Ilaplists are very scarce.
This portion of the State is not well
adapted to farming, although there are
some very good farmers. It is very
(iue for grazing purposes and they raise
quite a quantity of cattle and horses
here. This county is 65 by 9G miles
in size, and there are about 0,000 peo
pie in the county, which would give
one inhabitant to every square mile.
Some of the jurors have to travel over
a distance of a hundred miles to attend
court. The eastern portion of the
State that 1 traveled through is a very
fine country, some of the land produc
ing as much as 100 bushels of corn per
acre.
Ohaha is a great city. They claim
a population of 160,0°0, and the city
reminds me very much of Atlanta.
The people there speak of the great
future of the city, and I would not be
surprised to see it become the Metrop
olis of the West.
The p didcs of the .State is of course
lb publican. It did not Cast its vote
for Weaver, as is supposed by a great
many down South. Mr. liryan, our
Congressman, is admired for his bril
liancy, hut I don’t think he is regarded
as a very ardent Democrat.
The populists are makiug a desper
ate offort to carry the State this fall.
They are well organized and are mak
ing nominations in almost every county
in the State for county offices. They
claim almost everything, but 1 suppose
, pose the result will be about like it was
Highest of all in Leavening Power.—Latest U S. Gov’t Report.
PoYaI Baking
Powder
ABSOLUTELY PURE
in Georgia last fall. They are making
a little fight on the Republicans, and
we have three tickets in the field—pop
ulists, Republicans and Democrats.
I weut out to a democratic caucus
last night and of course joined the club.
1 made them a brief talk and told about
Uncle llirum Lester going to the polls
last fall, aud when some oue asked him
how long lie had been votiug the dem
ocratic ticket, lie re replied ever since
the world began. • The Democrats will
will make a hard pull for some
of the county offices here. The
Republicans in this town have treated
me real nicely, aud I have quite a num
ber of good friends in that party. The
most of them are conservative in their
nature, aud I have no complaint to
make against them.
Congress is playing a good joke ou
the third party people throughout the
nation. That party believe, or profess
to believe, that Cougress will not fulfill
the promises as laid down iu the Chica
go platform ; but right there they will
ho surprised. Congress will repua l the
Sherman law; Congress will remove
the 10 per ceut on State ilauks—and
after that is done they will give us a
general reduction on the tariff. Con
gress will never adjourn until il has
given us a good flexible sound curren
cy. Of course they cannot make laws
to suit every man, hut they will legis
late so as to meet the hearty approval
of all intelligent Americans.
I for one entertain the kindest feel
ing for all political parties, concede to
every man his own honest convictions,
aud hope there is no man but who is
willing to uphold and perpetuate good
government.
A small suspicion has crept into my
mind that the Hill men, or umi Cleve
land men, aro jumping at conclusions
too quick iu regard to Cleveland’s pol
icy. Those papers in Georgia which
are kicking so vigorously at the admin
istration had better go slow. I noticed
from Senator Hill’s speech iu the Sen
ate on the Sherman repeal bill that
there is no difference in their opinions
ou the financial policy of this govern
ment. lam not ou of those who take
a pessimisistic view of what Congress
will do. The financial condition of this
country has improved considerably
iu the last fifteen days. I look
for a gradual improvement until
the Aerican people are all fairly pros
perous. The southern farmers will get
a fuir price for their cotton, the west
ern people will make money ou their
wheat, corn and hog crop, so for the
next (juarter of a century I think tlie
American people will he well “in the
swim.”
I must tell you of one little incident
that took place during my trip out
here. I was on the pullmau car, and
we had reached St. Louis. There was
a rumor started that lloke Smith was
on the train. Very soon I was escort
ed to the rear platform by the conduct
tor and introduced to the large crowd
as the Hon. Secretary of the Interior.
Taking in the situation at a glance, I
replied as follows:
Gentlemen of the grand old State
of I thank y,u for this
ovation. It give* me great pleas
ure to meet the hottest yeomanry of
this grand old commonwealth ; and 1
will assure you that I will endeavor to
maintain the dignity of the lofty posl
tiou which I occupy. I will do the
Lite square thing to the honest, deserv
ing pensioner and the broken hearted
ImliaD ; but I will assure jou that ev
ery single man drawing a dishonest
pension will be stricken from the pa*
roll.
I must now hid you good bye. When
you come to Washiugtou call on me
As the train pulled out three hearty
cheers were given for the Hon. lloke
Smith, the Secretary of the Interior.
This letter is longer than I intended,
but 1 will not worry you any more in
some time. Now, Mr. Editor, and
friends, I bid you
ever visit the sand hills of Nebraska,
cal', on me. You will always find tbe
door wide open—unless there is a
western blizzaid on hand. To every
reader ol The Weekly I must say
that I hope peace, plenty and prosper
ity will abide with you.

Startling if True.
In view of late events and the open
hostility of some socalled democratic
leadors(?) to the administration, and to
almost everything else democratic, the
following from the last issue of the Val
dosta Times is very interesting reading:
“It is believed, upon what is consid
ered the best authority, that a conspira
cy has been formed in Georgia to
capture the Democratic party next year
bag and baggage.
“The plan is this : Certain newspa
pers and certain disgruntled politicians
are to plant themselves on the Third
party platform of principles, but they
will declare that they are better Demo
crats than Grover Cleveland, and that
they propose to stay inside the party.
They will attempt to reorganize the
“Ocala Democracy,” but they will call
tt “Free Silver Democracy.” Tom
Watson was uut willing to make the
treaty, and go into the combine, until
he could feel the Third party pulse all
over the state, and for that purpose he
has been making this off-year campaign
from county to county. But he has
finished it up, and it is hinted that ho
has now given up hope of further success
on that line and is willing, when the
right time comes, to advise his follow
ers that they had better seek “relief”
through the Democratic party, and to
return and co-operate with the anti-ad
ministration Democrats in the primaries
and thus capture the party organization,
as the alliance did several years ago.
“Of course Watson is to be provided
for in the deal. Black will be sacrificed
and the wild colt of McDuffie will enter
Congress again as a Democrat from
the tenth District. Turner, Lester,
Ilusseli, Cabaniss and Lawson have
also been marked for the slaughter.
“'This, briefly, is the plan which has
been outlined to us. In the meantime
we will watch and wait developments.”
An Old Farmer’s Views.
An old farmer of Sumter county,
who has a level head, writes to The
Americus Times-Ilecorder as follows:
“There is being so much said in the
country about hard times and the scar
city of money, and as everybody has a
cause and knows a remedy, I thought
I would write to tell your readers what
I think is the cause. The trouble is
we buy more than we produce. There
is too much flour and bacon shipped
here every year. The things we ought
to make at home we are buying.
“We let our timber rot and buy our
plow stocks, singletrees, ax handles,
hoe handles and fencing.
“We throw away our ashes and buy
soap and axle grease.
“We give away our beef hides and
buy liame strings and shoe strings.
“We let our manure go to waste and
buy guano.
“We buy garden seed in the spring
and cabbage in the wiutor.
“We let our lands grow up in weeds
and buy our brooms.
“We let the wax out of our pine and
gum trees go to waste and buy chew
ing gum for our children.
“We build schoolhouses and hire
teachers and send our children off to bo
educated.
“We land a 5-cent fish with as 4
fishing rod.
“We send a 15 cent boy out with a
4'20 gun and a $4 dog to kill birds.
“We raise dogs sud buy wool.
“And about the only thing in this
, country that there is au over-produc
i tiou of is politics and dogtics.’’
