Where the Oil Goes. Last year about 1,250,000 tons of cot ton seed were crushed in this country, from which was extracted 10,000,000 barrels of oil, and the Charlotte, (X. C.) Observer says this is where it goes: Chicago pork packers buy 300, >00 barrels, most of which is made into lard. Maine sardiue packers use 20,000 bar rels Between 50,000 and 100,000 barrels are consumed by various soap makers.

SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 11,1893^ SHORT EDITORIAL PARAGRAPHS Lucy Stone, the tireless worker for womans' rights, is dead. It is said that business troubles cause 12 per cent of the suicides. The bill admitting Utah to the Union has been reported favorably. The Georgia Legislature is settlc- ing down to busiuess. The duels arc over. Wc hope our Brunswick friends will get out of quarantine in time to go to the Augusta fair. Cranks should he hung to prevent a repetition of their crime and to make room for good citizens. An average of six hundred barrels of fish are dail^shipped from Tampa. They are worth Si per barrel. A cold wave is reported as coming from the direction of Minnesota. Nobody is afraid, let it come. President Cleveland and Secretary Gresham went squirrel hunting re cently. All the squirrels ain’t dead yet. There is yet a prospect that the superior court Judges salaries may be raised from the niggardly sum of 82,000. The thirtieth clay of this month, which comes on Thursday, has been set apart as a day of thanksgiving by the President. It has been definitely and properly decided that those who are ot of Brunswick must stay out until all danger from yellow fever is over. The Atlanta Journal has won the heart of the Democratic party of Georgia. In fact it is the leading- Democratic paper of the South. A Chicago newspaper has figured it out that the lumber used in the con struction of the World’s Fair build ings represent five thousand acres of standing trees. Barring a little trouble from rheu matism, Queen Victory, who will be 75 years old in May next, if she lives till then, is in excellent condition and thought good for twenty years more. The terrible explosion of dynamite in Spain, an occouut of which np- peas in another column, adds another to the long list of casualties which have oocn^ed in the year 1893. . Another crank is after Cleveland. He says he would make a better President than Grover! If we mis take not, several others have been down with the same complaint re cently. The steamship Mascotte brought to Tampa from Havana on her trip last Wednesday the largest cargo bf leaf tobacco since September, 1892. There were 417 bales, the duty upon which was 316,000. It will not do for the farmers of the country to lose sight of the fact that they are learning a lesson just now that ought to prevent their both ering with cotton another year. As Song as. they fool with cotton the staple will be-King only in that they become slaves. Albany Herald. Statesman Tom Watson is now prophesying that next year there will be an open combination between the Cleveland Democrats and the Repub licans in Georgia, and that the Popu lists will have to save tbe State. Tom Watson probably forgets that the State U already saved. A crutch voted for the Chinese’ bill last week. K was carried down tbe isle by a page and passed between tbe tellers, counting “one more in tbe affirmative, Mr. Speaker.” The crutch .was the proxy ot Geh..Daniei E. Sickles, who sat in his seat and smiled as he saw how he could save himself much trouble in.the future.— St. Louis Globe Democrat. Americus was enlivened yesterday by a fire and a mad-dog. The metalic line will soou be eliminated from Georgia politics. Prendergast, the Chicago assassin, is as talkative a9 Guiteau ever was. Washington bids fair to be a resort for Democrats for sometime to come. The cigarette bill is probably dead. Now who will introduce a chewing- gum bill. Tbe owners of the Tybee railroad have not yet decided whether or not to rebuild. The temporary dissatisfaction in Democratic ranks will soon be a thing of the past. Wade Hampton says he is willin; to wade into the fight if the people of South Carolina want him. Congressman Livingston does not think the Third party in Goorgia is as strong as its leaders claim. The people are about convinced that a presidential backbone, is pre ferable to a presidential big hat. The Prince of Wales is very fond of wearing old clothes for the reason doubtless, that lie is not compelled to do so. Several days have elapsed 'since the repeal bill was passed, and a silver dollar is just as good as a silver dollar. The Tallahassean saj’s: “The trouble with most men is that they don’t think, they only tlnnk they think.” Americus will follow Savannah’s footsteps and have Democratic primaries for the nomination of her municipal ticket. The Sparta Islimaelite insists on running the state campaign on the silver issue. The Islimaelite will run a campaign of its own. The silver men shake their fists and say, “Cleveland did it.” And the President’s admirers smile and think the compliment is deserved. Turner.—Of all the public men in Georgia none are so well qualified to serve the State in the United States Senate as Hon. Henry G. Turner.— Dublin New Era. There is no use denying the fact that Grover Cleveland has the confi dence of the American people. History will not forget the splendid manliness that tbe President has dis played in the late crisis. Thirteen states will hold elections next Tuesday. These states are Kentucky, Maryland, Massachusetts, Missouri, Nebraska, New York, New Jersey, Ohio, Pennsylvania, South Dakota, Wisconsin, Virginia and Iowa. The Choctaw Indians should now be considered thoroughly civilized, their treasurer haying “skipped,” leaving a shortage of something like $100,000. Considering the amount he had to handle, no Chicago or New York man could have made a heavier haul. Mrs. Grant, widow of General Grant, has decided upon making Washington her permanent home. She has spent sometime recently searching for a suitable bouse, but thus far has not succeeded in finding one. Jacksonville yesrns to outstrip New Orleans as a sporting center. Jt raised $30,000 to secure the fight between Corbett and Mitchell, if the reports ale true. How much could be raised there in as sliort a time for areally worth purpose?—Savannah Press. A man in Mississippi has been acquitted of the murder of an inoffen sive and unoffending citizen because ha. was beastly drunk at the time and it was shown that tbe act was without malice.* This is hbout as had a pre cedent as could lie established. Drunkenness shottTd be no excuse for crime. Governor Nortben has offered a re ward of $250 for each case of arresi with evidence to convict, of the par ties who are posting gins In Bartow, Cherokee, Cobb and other counties, threatening to born Ihefh if they gin any more cotton before the price of the staple reaches 10 cents. The Louisville an£ Nashville is re ceiving the. last installment of a ship ment of 1500 new air-brake cars, which are destined to be used in Albert G. Hopkins, of South Da kota, has started a crusade for a change in the national flag. Six shots has been fired at our flag in Honduras and the American eagle is doin g some loud schreeching. The election news to-day is not very cheering. The Herald will hold its rooster back for a future occosion. Rev. Holmes, at Columbus, Ohio, recently created a stir by declaring in his pulpit that foreigners control the labor unions. Senator George does not believe that cotton will rise in price. What does Senator George know about raising cotton? The Colorado papers complain that silver is still on the toboggan slide. Never mind, she’ll strike bottom after awhile. The Americus Recorder was sold yesteruay for 87,096. There will be no chauge in the management or policy of the paper. One of Tennessee’s leading dailies has discarded the type-setting ma chine and returned to the old style, thinking it the cheapest. The latest details from the terrible disaster at Santander, Spain, show that a thousand people are killed wounded and missing. And so President Cleveland is guarded from the cranks? This is well says the Savannah Press, as the silver Senator is abroad. The New York World remarks that “the country applauds Speaker Crisp for his grand victory in the case of Gavel vs. Gabble.” The Virginia election came off yes terday and there is every indication that the Democratic party has carried the state by 25,000 to 30,000 majori ty. And now a woman crank is after Senator Hill. She says he owes her a million dollars. You can trust a woman for putting the amount high enough. The Senatorial race seems to be fairly on before the present legisla ture. Some of the present legislators will probably drop by the wayside before the election comes off. ' Jesup is against a State board of health and the town council has unanimously’ decided to ask the Re presentative from Wayne county to oppose the bill now pending in the Legislature.

Jones got into trouble recently at Dyersburg, Kv. He* preached to the darkies, when one of the old sisters grasped his hand and said with much emotion (they can get on that article to le slight degree on occasion): Brother Jones,"God bless you!

GIVE VS A TRIAL AND RE CONVINCED WAYCROSS A Strauge Sickness. A report reached us this morning of a strange sickness which occurred during the recent Baptist Association near Bickley, in this county, on Saturday last. It seems that a nuniber of persons went to the houss of a brother baptist for the purpose of spending the night. Soon after eating a late dinner the guests be gan to be taken sick with gripings and vomiting and in a short time nineteen persons were down and to all appearan ces many of them seemed likely to die in a short time. Their sufferings were acute in the ex treme. The country' was aroused, and Dr. Dillon, of Bickley, was on the ground as quickly as possible, and it is thought that liis prompt action saved many lives. Some of the sick did not recover until near day the next morning. The gentleman of the house was one of the sickest of the party. Mr. J. B. Jones, of Waycross, was among those taken, and a gentleman who was there informs u? that at one time he thought the old gentleman would certainly die. No one present had ever seen such a case before. The cause of the sickness is yet un known, though some suppose,.the doc tor among the number, that they had eaten some food that was soured, and caused terrible cholera morbus. At last accounts the patients were all doing Veil, most of them having entirely re covered/ A number of the sick had to be haul ed home Sunday morning. No one re grets the occurance so much as the gen tleman at whose house it happend. A Hint. A clergymau was once annoyed by people talking and giggling during the service. lie paused, looked at the dis turbers and said: “Some years sincr, as I was preaching, a young man who sat before me was constants laughing, talking and making uncouth glances. I paused and administered a severe re buke. After the close of the service a genlleman said to me: ‘Sir, you made a great mistake; that young man was an idiot.’ Since then, I have always been: afraid to reprove those who misbehave in chapel, lest I should repeat that mistake and reprove another idiot” During the rest ot the service there was good order.
