The South Carolina diapenrary law dispenses with more law than whis key. - , Mr. Geo. F. Piice, a candidate for Mayor of Macon, died day before yesterday. Watterson’s advice is good? If the Senate fails to act npon it the country will. Tlie business of the country stands still waiting, wondering and wishing. All eyes are on the aforesaid Senate. The Albany Herald is the best of all the small dailies in the the state and we hope the most prosperous Several gin houses have been burned in Alabama during the past week. White caps are accused of doing the work. Atlanta society is all torn up again, Mrs. Porter and the others are having a rough and tumble fight, with the odds agaiost Mrs. Porter. The Senate is giving the country great trouble, but the hop crop of the West is good. There’s always something to be thankful for. The arrangements-at Baltimore for the celebration ofTlife 25th anniver sary of the elevation to the Episco pate of Cardina Gibbons are about completed. Hen. R. G. Mitchell, of Thomas- ville, declines to become a candidate for Governor. Had he continued in the race, the Herald would have given bun one vote certain. There is'nothing in the world or any other country to justify the Senate obstructionists. If they can’t be choked with butter there are other means which should be applied. Between the hots at a theatre at Charleston the other night, over 200 persons “went out to sec a man. It is presumed that the usual number of Tillman constables were among tire crowd. —Ex. It appears from a recent tveasury statement that there are in circulation in this country nearly forty thousand 810,000 bills, and yet there are doubt less many persons who never saw. much less possessed oue of them. With the coming of frost and cbld weather the shadows cast by the ycl- low fever will disappear, but the Senate, O, that Senate, still hangs about the necks of the people like grind stone.—Thomasville Times. The following shot hits the bulls eye and no mistake: If the Senate minority can prevent the passage of the Sherman repeal act now. why couldn’t the Democratic minority prevent the passage of the McKinley bill in 1890? Senator Colquitt was on hand both times. “You may think you’re smart,' said the tragedian ns the audience pelted him with late lamented hen -fruit, “but I think you’re making ■some pretty bad breaks.’’—Elmira Gazett. Haggard Stranger—My principal difficulty, doctor, is that I am unable to sleep. Famous Physician—Go and hear tho Rev. Dr. Seventhly preach. Haggard Stranger -Alas, doctor, I am the Rev. Dr. Seventhly.—Chica go Tribune. The man who favors the “free and unlimited coinage” of silver is arsilver monometallist, for the reason that the great increase in silver money which would certainly result, would drive out gold entirely and establish the silver standard. We want bi metallism, and there is no bimettalic country which does net put a limit on j Cleveland is silver coinage, and can not be.— Post. The Georgia Legislature convenes day after to-morrow. Surely the Senate will finish np and come to a vote this week. Cnicago proposes to wind np the Fair with a bigger day than ever yet. The Senate does not heed the in junction to vote early and often. It is now thought by the knowing ones that Allen has not yet made bis main speech.' Savannah’s cotton receipts are 20,000 bales in excess of last year, up to date. The bond between France and Russia lies, doubtless, in their mutual hatred of Germany. Atlanta is extending her limits again. The Gate City will eventual ly cover the ground. An editor should receive credit for wbat he leaves out of his paper as well as wbat he puts in. The Senate evidently has the key to the situation but they seem unable to find the key bole. Prohibition bids fair to become a prominent feature in the Atlanta city election in December. Instead of giving the people relief, Congress has given them heartache, and it may be, stomachache. Cotton lias taken another.tumhle, Cotton is like a drunken man, first up. then down. Generally down The Democratic tariff bill will soon be completed, and hopes are enter tained that it will become a law be fore Christmas. The reflection that some of the chief obstructionists in the Senate are republicans affords very little satisfaction of a very poor quality. A Western editor in answer to a complaint of a patron that he did not give news enough, advised him to read the Bible, which he had no donbt would be news to him. The Chicago’ platform demands the repeal of the Sherman law. The so called democratic senators who refuse to vote for it should pull out of the party, and at once. The Republicans are highly dc- lightcdat at the condition of affairs in the United States Senate, and the Populists are jubilant beyond meas ure. Macon has a three-cornered fight for the mayoralty and everything points to a hot contest. The candi dates are Mr. George Carakcr, Col. Joe Pound and Col. Rufus Roberts. If the Railroads leading into Chi cago pay all the losses incurred by wiecking trains and killing people, their profits by World’s Fair transac tions will not be very great, appar ently. Major R. J. Moses died in Europe on last Monday. During the war he was quartermaster for Longstreet’s corps. He was an able lawyer, and figured in Georgia extensively in poli tics before the war. Wednesday Jacksonville held her bond election. Nine hundred and forty-four votes were cast, of which 701 were for bonds, a pretty stiff majority. This means that our sister city will issue bonds to the amount of 81,000,000, ' It strikes the average reader as rather strange that considering the vast amount of misery and prime in this country it should be deemed ne cessary to send missionaries abroad to convert the heathens. Surely this is the kind of charity that begins at home. There is no party alignment on the finincial issue. There . are Demo cratic leaders on both sides of the question and Repuligan readers are likewise divided, but the absence of partyism appears to he fully compen sated for by the presence of section alism. Dr. Hertzka, a German, predicts that 60,000;000 whites will some day people Africa and civilize the blacks. If human experience is worth any thing, the prediction will end in the same way. that the aborigines of America were civilized by the whites —extermination. The Guatemalan congress having refused to act in accordance with tire wishes of the president, he has de clared himself dictator, kicked the congress out of town and ordered the country to elect a new and more complaisant one. And yet there are day. The exposition will close Oct. 31st without fail. The jig is up and the great silver fight is practically ended The extraordinary session of Con gress has been extraordinary indeed. The war is all over and we’ll turn back to the place where we first started. Congress seems to be very healthy, but the people are getting mighty sick. It is reported that the silver mine owners are being bled freely in Wash ington. BIr. Josephus Tarver now has edi- rial charge of the Hawt Dispatch. find a verdict of not guilty.
