The Georgia state fair opens at Macon
on Oct. 25th, and closes November 4th.
The anti-snappers in New York city
have contributed $100,000 to the demo
cratic campaign fund.—Albany Herald.
Mrs. Harrison grows weaker daily
and no hope is entertained of her recov
ery. The president rarely leaves her.
The Homestead striking rioters are to
be tried for treaton. If convicted a quie

The prohibition vote this year in three
states from which returns are in is as fol
lows: Maine, 3,800; Vermont, 1,045;
Arkansas, 1,200.
The celebration of Columbus Day in
New York city on the 12th was proba

Franklin county, which was

is to have its election contested liy xhe
democratic executive committee.
The republican boodle campaign in
New York will hardly materialize this
year. Inspector Byrnes says that anyone
caught buying vote* will be dealt with
harshly. Bribery is a penitentiary of
fense.—Albany Herald.
General Weaver carried out bis inten
tion of speaking in Pulaski, Tenn., list
Saturday. After working the public
mind up to a fever beat of expectancy
the daily press had nothing to report but
Pulaski's apparent imlifTerence to the
visit of her ex-tyrant.

candidates.
Mr. Cleveland, Mr. Whitney and
Mr. E. C. Benedict have each sent
a check for #10,000 to the national
democratic committee.—Savannah News.
The situation in Alabama is ominous
in the the extreme. The arrest of the
probate judge and circuit clerk of Bul
lock county on charges of violating the
election laws has aroused the indignation
of the democracy of the state. The Bir
mingham Age-Herald says “all Alabama
is outraged” by this action of the popu
lists. Whether the leaders of the peo
ple’s party will have the hardihood to
proceed with further threatened arrests
of election officers is the anxious ques
tion in the minds of the lovers of jteace.
BANKRUPT REPUTATIONS.
Under the above caption the Dawson
news bewails the present political cam
paign methods, and, looking into the fu
ture sees, though dimly, the day when
“honest men may get justice and strug
gling newspapers, trying to be right, will
be heard.”
We have not the beautiful faith of our
good democratic friend in Terrell county
for we firmly believe that so long as
there are political parties fighting for su
premacy, each will tell lies on the other.
He says:
Men with the best possible reputations,
with characters for a whole lifetime above
reproach, are designated as common liars.
The campaign for the past year or two
lias swept from good men reputations
which they have been years and years in
building up. A gentleman whose life
lias been beyond suspicion wakes up some
morning to find his reputation for truth
and decency gone, and in its place wild
and mad men have manufactured a special
character for him.
The News is not so good as to escape
i share of the Niagara of abuse which is
sweeping the country, or so bad as to de
serve it. We may not l>e impartial, hut
we go on no premeditated excursion of
lying, and those readers who have follow
ed us for years ought not now, because of
party feeling, sufTer themselves to be led
otr in to such belief. They at least ■
should kuow us better.
In some future day perhaps, God knows
how long first, ineu and papers will be
judged by what they are, and not by
what the inflamed senses of an angry
people unjustly make them.
When most sovereign reason, now
like sweet bells jangled out of tune and
harsh,” shall resume her sway honest men
may get justice and struggling newspa
pers, trying to be. right, will be heard.
duetkra of 8 to 10 per cent. In the scale
of wages for wire drawing for 1801 and
1593k Also that a large number of wire
and cut nail mills are shut down.
5. It aajs: “The Continental tube
works, at Frankstown and Pittsburgh,
havA dosed down far an indefinite
period," because “the firm did not feel
justified in buying ikelp iron in the open
market at the recent advance in prices.”
G. “On account of the -depression in
the iron market, the Isabella Furnace
Ca, operating the Isabella furnace at
Etna, Pa., have banked down one stack
and will probably lank another daring
the present weelc”
7. “Addyston Pipe works, the largest
in the country, have posted a notice of
a shut-down for an indefinite period.”
8. “The Dunbar Furnace Ca, at Don-
bar, Pa., operating the two Dunbar fur
naces, closed them down on Saturday.
July SO, for an indefinite period.”
Closing down due to the “present de
pression existing in the pig iron trade.”
9. The Keystone Horseshoe Ca, oi
Philadelphia, have started upon three-
fourths capacity after a shut-down of
three weeks, during which time the
workmen concluded to make the re
quired “concessions" necessary to re
sume work.
10. Recent advances, amounting to S3
and $4 per ton have been made in struct
ural steel.
1L There is a “better tone to prices"
of barbed wire and “some of the manu
facturers have withdrawn their quota
tions.”
12. “It is estimated that about 15,000
men are now idle, causing some eighty
buildings in course of construction to
be tied up" in New York City.
13. “It is estimated that during the
present month a perceptible increase in
prices will be noticed” for window
glass.
The Iron Age attempts editorially to
explain the grave necessity which ex
ists for “the leveling of wages” in the
iron industry. It says both prices and
wages have been on an artificial basis,
and that “with the disappearance of
artificial values the artificial standard
of wages also falls.”
These items—such as occur every
week—give a fair idea of industries
propped up by a tariff. Unsteady and
fluctuating prices and production, com
binations of capital to restrict produc
tion, raise prices and reduce wages, la
bor unions to resist the reductions.,
strikes boycotts and labor riots—all
paid for in the end by the consumer
who votes to sustain this unnatural and
unhealthy system of providing for
wants.

£our years ago our public school ac
commodations for thewhite pupil* consis
ted of four rooms, with four teachers in
charge. Two yean ago the number of
room* grew by necessity to six, with six
teachers, besides the principal. The
present session opens with 280 pupil*
distributed through seven rooms, which
| fill* them to their utmost capacity. New
pupils will apply for admission steadily
through the foil and winter, which will
{necessitate the opening of another room
and the employment of an additional
Iteacher. It looks as if Waycross were
determined to outgrow her educational
facilities, despite the efforts of her zeal
ous board of education: Since writing
the above we learn that the utmost limit
of the seating capacity of the rooms now
occupied has been reached and fresh ap
plicants for admission have been ^turned
away. The board intend however to at |
once employ an additional teacher and
open up the remaining room in the
tension.

The Atlanta Constitution ha* a hard
time of it. Editor Howell is being called
to account by the New York World for
his position on the silver question. This
is what the World say* of Mr. Howell;
He has read the democratic platform
adopted at Chicago, and he write* in
fovor of free silver coinage, directly dis
puting what the platform says and Mr.
.Carlisle says. If this is not treason to
the democratic party, what is it?
The Birmingham Age-Herald takes this
gloomy view of it:
When Col. Alex. McClure spoke of
the “maggots of monopoly,” he coined
an alterative phrase that will live with
Cleveland’s “a public office b a public
trust,” and Lincoln’s “Government of
the people, by the people and for the
people.” These “maggot* of monopoly”
fatten and batten on the body politic in
the dark, while the people sleep. Their
presence b a sign that honesty is decay
ing, that the government b rotten,
and that the love of liberty b feeble.
The idea of pumping coal through a
pipe from Pennsylvania to New York
would seem impracticable, but a company
has been organized for that very pur
pose. 1 he coal will be ground into a fine
powder, mixed with a sufficient quant-
tv of water and forced through pipe*
into a big tank at the New York end.
The coal dust will be allowed to settle
in the tank, when the water will be drawn
off, and the coal compressed Into foel
bricks.
Coal has” gone up” again. Not be
cause there is a scarcity of it but because
the “Combination” orders it. The com
bines of capital hare broken open the

ests of antediluvian ages are stowed away

A WEEK’S RECORD.
Treats Formed. Mill* Closed. Price* Rained
sad Wagw Reduced to Artificially Stim
ulated Industrie*. ‘
It is the claim of protectionist®—as
•idicnlon* as it is general—that protec
tion tariffs tend to destroy monopolies
and trusts, to increase production, to
lower prices and to raise wages. * Tariff
reformers take a different view on all
these points and base their opinions
leas upon the theory and more upon
facta, that is, they have recently called
the attention of the country to a list of
100 tariff trusts; to a list of 500 wage
reductions in protected industries since
October, 1890; to hundreds of articles
on which both the duty and the price
have been Increased; to hundreds of
mills and factories closed by these tariff
traits to restrict production, and to
numerous other similar facta. Readers
of trade papers come across a multitude
of facta on the tariff reform side of this
question. Hero are & few takefc from
the weekly Iron Age of August 4, 1892.
It should be remembered that the great
est of all protected industries is that of
Iron and steel manufactures:
1. It publishes a list of eight big iron
and steel combines and of several smal
ler ones of recent date. These embrace
the manufacture of steel rails, struct
ural steel, crucible and open-hearth
steel, steel billets, wire rods, yrire, wire
nails, boiler and tank plates, armor
plates, cut nails,, slabs, pig iron, bar
iron, etc.
2. It dlecn—** “the tactics of the coal
combine,” which has advanced prices of
anthracite coal several times daring the
last few months and which will con
tinue to males advances from “time to
time in a sort of arithmetical progres
sion, with the apparent, if not openly
avowed, design of reaching a certain
maximum—say. $5 a ton for stove—’be
fore the snow flies.* ”
Of course the duty on hi
coal, which competes with anthracite,
makes it easier for the coal combine to
reach “a certain definite maximum."
A It says, “The latest combine in the
mercantile world is a fur pool with
810,000,000 capital, in which nearly all
the firms in. the trade have become in
terested.” This is the George W. Tread
well trust which baa a monopoly of the
seal fur industry of Alaska and also of
the dyeing of furs, and which can adjust
prices in this country up to the limits
of a duty.
«. It announces firmer and upward
A Millenium Overdue.
It has been nearly two years since
our present tariff act went into effect
It was to encourage industries and pro
vide work for all f»t higher wages. An
era of peace and plenty was to follow.
There was no doubt about it But
what has been our experience? Besides
thousands of strikes, over 500 wage re
ductions in protected industries have
been reported. At the present time
there arc labor riots in Pennsylvania,
New York, Tennessee and Wyoming,
and the militia is on guard in three
states. At no other time in our history
have there been so many ready to fill
any vacancies that may occur in the
ranks of labor. If it were not for senti
ment and fear 100,000 men would be
begging for the places of the 3,000
strikers at Homestead. And this is the
condition of labor in spite of our big
crops and high prices for them,
would not be fair to blame McKinley
for all this—the excessive heat of this
summer, or the democratic house
thousand other things may have tempo
rarily unsettled business and working
men’s minds. Such unforseen events
as these would upset the best laid plans.
But how many years do you think it
would take, major, before your pet
measure will begin to usher in the wage
earner’s promised millenium?

OUR MACON LETTER.
Macon, Ga., Oct., 1892.
Indian summer lias lured the majority
of summer wanderers back to the city,
and the cool autumn winds seem to have
invigorating effect on the people gen
erally. Pedestrians move briskly along
the streets and everyone has a busy,
wide-awake air.
C’ptton is coming in every day and the
price is a little higher than was expect
ed, which, of course is a matter for re
joicing among both city and country
people.
The congregation of the Jewish’ tem
ple, Beth Israel, are planning the erec

The Jewish population of the city is large
and prosperous; the majority of. them
