The proposition of Secretary Carlisle to issue $200,000,000 3 per cent short- date bonds, so that they may become a popular loan, distributed in small denom ination among the people, has made the general subject more interesting. Such a loan would open the way for safe investments all over the country and those bonds will be eagerly taken. It would relieve the pressure upon the treasurer and give to the various invest ors throughout the land a chance to share in the transaction. Of course this plan does not meet with favor on Wall street, where the big concerns are preparing to take up the loan and reap the benefit among them selves. The New York Herald is mak ing a crusade among the people and the proposition of a popular loan is received with enthusiasm in every city in the land. Itjis obvious that if the government must issue bonds, and that necessity is apparent, the idea of a popular loan is the one to be put into operation. Presr. Notice. Notice is hereby given that the firm of 8; L. Gapton A Co. has been dissolved by mu tual consent, Mr. J. T. McGee having pur chased Mr. Gupton’s interest in the busi ness. The carnage and blacksaaithing busi ness will be carried on at the old stand by J. T. McGee. The liabilities of the firm have been assumed by J. T. McGee, to whom all amounts due the late firm must be paid. J. T. McGEK. S. L. GUFTON Dec 2 4tw. GEORGIA—Camdkx Couxtt: Notice is " il adrar- _ one in the , iin Waycroes Ga.

Turner may enter the race Cor Gov ernor or Senator. Which!will itbe?— Savannah Press. We have seen no Intimation anywhere that Mr. Turner would be a candidate for governor. There is no such thing down on the program and the Savannah Press knows it That there is a desire however, on the part of the friends of other candidates to side track Mr. Tur ner, is evident, and the desire is also an evidence of Mr. Turner’s strength, We are satisfied Mr. Turner will be a can didate for United States Senator and in our opiniom will be elected by a large majority.

A car load of children passed through Waycross this morning en route to St. Augustine. They had been sent by some charitable institution in New York and go to St. Augustine to be given homes. The children range In age Grom wee toddlers to 12 years, old and are of both sexes. They seem to be in good condition and are as happy as possible deo the circumstances. We hope they will find good homes and make good citizens in the yean to come. - Figs anti Thistles, The next dojr neighbor to pride is shame. Lot’s wife was what might be called a well-preserved woman. If some of our heads were not so big our hearts would grow faster. A - rose measured by its fragrance makes a cabbage head look little. When people are hired to be good they will stop as soon as the pay stops. When you want a friend don’t choose a man whose children are afraid of him. Some people who are overly sensative in feeling are underlv sensitive in eon science.—Ram’s Horn. The building of a road to Jerusalem has had its effect An exchange says: “A religious journal this week la ments the fact sent by a Holy Land cor respondent that a part of the way to the Mount of Olives is disfigured by adver tisements of Dnblin stout, and that bands play dance music on Sundays in the Garden of Gethsemane.” The next thing you hear some fellow will have a museum of freaks on the site of Solomon's temple. Walk right in here! Only ten cents.

The remarkable concentration of wealth in this country, the sudden ap pearance of great fortunes, and the dis appearance of small—all this points to •essity of a measure such as has now found favor in the eyes of the com mittee.—Florida Timcs-Union (Dem.). IN THE SANCTUMS. The Thomasville Times savs that under the new passenger arrange ment a man cau take breakfast iqp I Jt i.- estimated that, property in Kansas has depreciated fully fifty I per tvnt dming the past year. ' Some of Torn Watson’s friciuls want him for governor, but Thomas will be a candidate for Congress. | The leading republican papers J agree that Mr. Turner’s speech was the ablest made in Congress for i years. The thousands of idle men and tramps now overrunning the country j are the outcome of thirty years of j republican rule. The latest fad in California bath New York and dinner the next dayd -louses is swimming to music, where in Thomasville. W ay cross beats ; th e y waltz and polka and schottische that, the tourist can take one break- while the band plays. fast in New York and the next' in this city. Mrs. Cynthia McLean, aged eighty two years died in Thomasville day before yesterday. The Sparta Ishmaelite says: The south is nothing bat a foraging ground for the north. Well the south is a pretty good pasture, Fort Valley has a freak in the per son of a jealous negro husband. Every time be leaves home he takes a wheel barrow of sand, poors it over the side walk in front of his steps, takes a broom and walking back wards sweeps it smooth so he can tell by the tracks in the sand whether any other man has been to sec his family during his absence. Henry McIntosh writes a strong editorial endorsing Hon. B. K. Rus sell for a second term. Well, Mr. Rnssell deserves well of the party. He took op the fight in the last cam* paign after the nomination had al most gone 1>egging. And he made a splendid cenvass, carrying the party torn glorious victory.—Thomasville Time*. Hornblower’s name seems to have worked against him from the jump. The Senate has refused to confirm him as justice of the supreme court. B. J. Smith, Druggist, recommends Japanese Liver Pellets for constipation ana sick headache. Small, mild, easy to take. 50 pills 25 cents. The appoitment of Hon. Thos. Lamb as collector of the port of Bronswick gives satisfaction. He has served the party well and de serves his reward. It is pretty well understood that the populists are to try it again in Georgia. The democratic majority will be about as big as if there were no people's party. The Confederate Veterans Camp of New York will have its fonith an nual dinner in honor of the memory of Gen. Robt. E. Lee-on the anni versary of his birth day, January 19th next, at Scottish Rite hall. J. F. B. Beckwith's appointment as collector of customs at Savannah was signed by President Cleveland at 12 o'clock yesterday and his name was sent to the Senate in the after- * noon for confirmation. »******* pitmen “Sock it to’em Jerry!" shouted an unknown representative as Mr. Simpson was displaying some old clothes’to the House the other day dar ing his tariff speech. And the Kansan doesn't know whether be was com plimented or ridicnled. In the northwestern part of Colo-, rado there is a region several hun dred square miles in extent which is literally a vast deposit of petrified fish of all sizes and shapes. These fish beds—shale, containing fish re mains—are about 150 feet in thick ness and extend np and down the Green river for a distance of 150 or 200 miles.
