OUR CANDIDATES.
The Onuhx Convention.
The con rent ion of the People’s party
assembled at Omaha on July 2, and
completed their work on July 6th. There
were 1,776 delegates and the platform of
principles were adopted and the candi
dates nominated on July 4th, so that
the entire affair wa» a sort of fourth of
July celebration.
Following i.t the platform :
1. That the union of the labor forces of
the United States this day contain mated

The rattle of the musketry at Home
stead yesterday, was music in the ears ol
Tom Watson. It means votes for his
anti-Pinkerton bill.—Journal.
There are now four parties in the field,
representing all shades of belief. No
voter this year will be eomj>e)led to stay
at home lor want of a ticket of bin
choice.
k, ^ Knv coinage isjikely to cause another
fight in the House. This time it ik the
Henate’s hill that will apj*ear for discus
sion. It is, therefore, |«M»ihle that the
present Congress will pass a free coinage
bill.
Speaker t’lias. F. Crisp was unani
mously renominated for Congress by the
lVuiocralic convention of the Third
District. A resolution was carried re
questing Mr. Crisp to use every honora
ble means to pass the Stewart silver
bill.
Mr. Warren lsdt’s name has been
mentioned by several persons for legis
lative honor*. Mr. I>»tt has had experi
ence in that line and he would make a
wise and conservative representative
who would Ik* most acceptable to a large
majority of the citizens of Ware county
If Mr. I<ott will allow hi* name used,
the Hkrald will enthusiastically
dorse him.
One of the beautiful results of protec
tion is seen in the lockout of the work
men at Carnegie’s Homestead
works, near Pittsburg, because of their
refusal to aeeept a reduction in wages.
The works had U*en strongly barricaded
and an effort was made to bring
army of Pinkerton thugs, to guard the
non-union workmen whom it wa
signed to employ. The locked
workmen took possession of the works
and a battle ensued between them and
the Pinkerton’s, the latter being eonsid*
rrablv worsted.
The Central’s Receivership,
Mr. II. M. Comer was appointed
Monday as sole receiver for the Central
Railroad and Banking Co. This action
was brought about by the failure of the
Central to meet the payment of interest
on their tripartite bond*, and in order to
prevent the disintegration of the Central
property. ^

OUR MACON LETTER,
Maoox, Ga., July—All lovers of
amusement are in a delightful state of
expectation at the announcement of
Carmencita’s appearance on the 7th inst.
That this famous Spanish dancer would
give a performance in Macon was be
yond the hopes of all, and the Academy
of Music will be filled from pit to dome
to see this wonder of the stage. Her
dancing is said to be the perfection of
graceful motion, and indiseribably fasci
nating. Doubtless the opportunity of
seeing this finished artist who has the
power of putting her whole soul iuto her
feet and whose toes are even eloquent,
should l»e embraced if only to find
wherein lies the gift to charm the mul
titude.
I-a»t week Father dc la Moriniere de
livered a lecture ou Christian Chivalry,
and paid a lieautiful and touching trib
ute to Robt. E. Lee. The discourse was
exquisite and not at all doctrinal; it was
the same which he recently delivered in
Augusta and Savannah. Notwithstand
ing the fact that this gentleman is con
sidered the finest orator in the State, the
Academy of Music was only half filled.
It is a deplorable and an unaccountable
truth that lectures are not appreciated
the South. We are a broad-minded and
cultured people, yet we flock to see
pantomime show, a circus or a danseuse,
but an occasional lecturer meets with a
half-filled house for an audience and the
balance empty rhairs.
iae Metropolitan, the new electric
line, is an assured success, and is a source
of pleasure to the stay-at-homes, enab
ling them to take an airing five miles
from the city and hack for ten cents.
July 4th dawued bright, beautiful:
hot. The streets are thronged with
people in holiday attire. Everyone car
ries a fan and ice-water and soda are in
great demand. All business houses will
close nt noon.
The Macon Evening News of Wednes
day last contained the following: “Miss
Hattie Olenmn, a very beautiful and tal
ented youug lady of Waycross, is in the
city. She has had many attentions paid
her since coming to the citv.”

“The glorious fourth !” St. Mary's is

may be heard to break the stillness of

The Third Parly Plat form.
Savannah News.
There is nothing to be said aliout the
Third party platform. The country U
familiar with it. It is the platform that
adopted at St. Louis last February
with a few verbal changes, and the omis-
of the plank that demands “that
the government issue legal tender notes
and pay the union soldier the difference
between the price of the depreciated
money in which he was paid and gold.”
There were some who denied that this
latter plank was a part of the .St. Louis
platform, hut it was sent out by the Aa-
riated Press as a part of it. It does
t appear in the Omaha platform.
It is noticeable that the platform has
nothing to say aliout lessening the bur
den of the tariff taxes, nor does it con
tain any reference to the force bill. Its
main features are demands that the coin
age of silver shall be free, that there
shall be an increase in the volume of
the currency, that the currency shall be
issued by the government without the
ose of banking corporations at a tax
to exceed 2 per cent, and that the gov
ernment shall own the railroad, tele
graph and telephone lines.
Hie platform is not one that will stand
discussion and Is not likely to meet with
favor from any considerable number of
people in any part of the country.
The Appropriate Pet Name.
Detroit Tribune.
It will l»e found advantageous to select
a good supply of pet names at the thres
hold of married life. The following
suggestion*, based upon the inexorable
logic of history, may be found of value :
Tootaey—Most properly applied to a
an of forty-five with one eye, a large
red nose and stiff black whiskers.
Birdie—Not to be tolerated unless the
bride weigh* orer 2ft0 jsiund* and ha*
false teeth.
Girlie — Refers exclusively to the
fourth or the fifth-lime bride of thirty-
eight summers and upward.
Sweetness—A very choice epithet ap-
plirahle to almost au\Laly whom the
cold world would regard as any tiling
bat sweet
Ownicst Own -Finds great far.tr with
husbands who have married a fortune.
A formic Candidate.
The patriotic action of the Chicago
convention in unanimously nominating
Grover Cleveland for president will be
too hot.
The melon crop seems scarce; very
few of them have Iteen seen in town up
to this date. There will l»e few peaches
too, hut figs will be plentiful, I learn,
•a* in abundance.
There were two or three picuics last
Thursday, the last day of June. The
people seemed to feel as if the fourth had
already come, judging from the way they
seemed to enjoy themselves.
Mr, Branch, the admired school
aeher, has returned, and will open
bool on Wednesday next.
Rev. Mr. Porter, of Waycross, gave us
smooth, lovely discourse Sunday even
ing from the psalm: “The Lord is my
Shepherd, 1 shall not want.”
Plenty of young ladies in town, hut
few young gentlemen to gallant them
about; they will have to imjiort some!
A sweet young lady from the “Magic
City” is visiting some of her relati'
near St. Mary’s.
There is one fine garden, or small field
of corn, in the town, in sight of tlie
writer, indicative of industry.
