The manager of the Hekald warmly appreciates the kind expressions of the Judge, both for her own work, which he gallantly over rates, and for our beanti fill little city whose prosperous growth, in the right lines, is dear to our hearts. The Herald has no desire to quarrel with the Judge for his encomiums on Mr. Turner, to whose honorable record we have been glad to bear testimony. But new conditions in the life* of our nation have arisen that, in otur judgment, call for new 'men and new measures. The history of governments has been the putting aside, from time to time, of the did dynasty, with its accumulation of abuses'and its impedimenta of party test- ROIBOTHAM 4 MURPHY. .

One night not long ago a member of the Alliance saw a light in the hall, and supposing his order was' in session, sauntered up and knocked on the door. The door was opened and an in quiring lace appeared. “I plough, I hoe, I spade,” solemnly remarked the Allianceman. “The devil you do!” replied the man on the inside, closing the door. ' Tho Allianceman told the story to hi* fellows. They were alarmed.

Report adopted. # The proposition of the Waycross Hook and Ladder Company, tendering au amount of money, raised by aub*cripti<gi to the city, provided it would furnish the balance needed to purchase aparatus for such company, was referred to the chief of the fire department for hi* investiga tion and report to Council.

Carried and report adopted: One fight at corner Parallel and F streets; one at corner of Wadlev and Reynolds streets. Bids to furnish provisions for city mules and convicts were received. The bid of W. P. Lee was accepted. Council audited and ordered paid the following bills, to-wit BUI of Waycross Herald, printing and great nation. He is mild and unobtru sive, in modesty unequaled; and yet a* brave a man as walks the earth.* His great wisdom, honesty and virtue give him a moral and iraliticgl power and prestige that few men have obtained m the United States. He is very justly re garded in the national councils as the peer of the most illustrious men of the present age. . Are the good and honest people of the new Eleventh Congress ional District of the grand State of Georgia ready and willing to cast aside such a man as Henry G. Turner for the purpose of trying a political experi ment in the most trying and perilous times of the country** history since the civil war ? I cannot think so. It will be well to beware lest by an indiscretion we arc set back another fourth of a cen tury. •'** The writer has not a word to say against Judge Atkinson. He is on ex cellent gentleman, but he is young and can wait. His turn will come if he maintains himself becomingly.' In the meantime it behooves all citizens who would have our country emerge from l>olitical chaos, unjust class legislation, capitalized power, to stick to the tried and true, Henry G. Turner. Joseph Tillmax. ditions, and ’substituting men from the heart of the people, with simple and di rect measures for their relwf./ That these patriots work well for a time is demonstrated by the steady growth of nations towards liberal forms of government. That they just a* inevi tably, with a few exceptions that prove the rule, lose after a time their touch with the people and become politician*, subservient to party chiefs, does not argue that they have not accomplished their mission, but proves only that the law of progression is in cycles, and that the people understand tvheu the body politic needs new leaven. The Herald is not u jKifitical organ. Our enemies, if we have any, would not accuse us of editing, in any sense, a campaign sheet. - The principles we advocate are wholly impersonal and are grounded in an un biased study of the oxegencies of the times. In advocating Judge Atkinson for our representative in Congress it is because we think.his vigorous mind has grasped the political situation more nearly than his opponent, and that he will meet the needs of the hour-with a clear intellect and the sound judgment he has always demonstrated in his official life. No man of thought denies* or ignores tit at this time in governmental centers. Mr. Turner tells a burdened and suffer ing people that these reforms will take a century to realize. Judge Atkinson know* they must begin at once or the perpetuity of the republic is threatened. Judge Atkinson is occupying, we re alize, the difficult but worthy position of trying to harmonize two extremes. He deserves to succeed. With a judicial mind, schooled to ‘consider lioth sides of a question, to search for causes, to c*ti- cffects, a student of human nature and of events, wise in counsel and young, high-minded and courageous, he is iu opiniou the mail of the hour and for the place. The personal friends of Mr. Turner, whom we esteem highly, and the party machine, which is the Moloek of good government, may defeat Mr % Atkinson in this crisis, but we are hopeful that his clear sight and steady hand will lie put at the helm next November. But what ever the result, we will shake hands with our good friend, Judge Tillman, and Iiojk* for the best. Shall Methodists Approve of Dancing. At the convention of Northern Meth odists, in Omaha, last week, a petition was introduced which had for its object the expunging from the church discipline that section which pronounces dancing as not in accordant* with religious princi ples. The Methodists have always taken a very strong stand on this question, and the striking out of this section from their church discipline, scores one for the lib eral-minded people. Youngsters demand a recognition, and they refused to admit that light hearts and dancing feet are an indication of empty head*. Tlic New York Herald takes the side of the coming generation, and argues there is no reason why religion should be either somber or gloomy. It is not heterodox to indulge in jolly laughter to allow your feet to slip gayly ov the floor. The result of the discussion the Omaha convention will be watched with considerable interest. — Atlanta Herald.
