UP AGAINST TRUST FACTS.
The republicans have never ceased
to worry about vhe facts in regard to
prices, wages and cost of living under
Dingley-bill trust rule as presented in
the last democratic campaign book.
Notwithstanding that with each at
tempt to get away from or disprove
these facts they work themselves
deeper into the trust mire, yet they
are foolish enough to continue their
spasmodic strugeles.
The Washington correspondent of
The News says Mr. Hill of Connecti
cnt made a desperate effort a few
days ago on the floor of congress
to prove by the table of prices 1o
the democratic campaign book that
the prices of the articles on the free
list hed advanced more from 1896 to
1902 than did the prices of the articles
on the dutiable list. He took all of
the eleven articles on the free list
and showed that the prices of these
advanced 26 per cent. Then he select
ed 21 articles from the 174 on the dutia
ble list and, amid republican applause,
showed that the prices of these rose
only 15% per cent from 1896 to 1902.
Judge Griggs of Georgia, chairman
of the democratic congressional com
mittee, got after Mr. Hill and simply
pulverized him. Not only did he se
lect another list of 21 important a.rt,i-l
cles from the campaign book list, the
prices of each and all of which are
controlled by tariff-protected trusts
and which advanced an average of 71
per cent from 1896 to 1902, but he
showed that all but four of the 26 per
cent advance in price showed by the 11
free list articles was due to the enor
mous advapce in prices of sisal and
binder twine, and that the yery high
prices of these two articles was due to
the cruel war in the Philippines.
Again, in the list of 174 articles on
the dutiable list Mr. Hill found one
the price of which was higher at one
time in 1896 than it was in 1902, This
one was wire nails. Judge Grieggs
showed that the high price of wire
nails in 1896 was due to a temporary
pool of the wire makers, which col
lapsed before the end of the year, and
that the average price during the
four years of the Wilson bill law wa,
only 81.70 per keg, while the average
price during the last four years of
Dingley-bill, billion-dollar trust domi
nation was $2.93 per keg.
The republicans are more at home
in suppresgsing discussion of these
trust facts than when attempting to
disprove them by butting their heads
up against them. ‘‘Addition, division
and silence’” should be their motto, as
, “leg well enough alone™ is their slo

A‘.,}'l’ula SOUTH'S GRAIN STATISTICS.
The Southern Farm Magazine bas
compiled from official reports of the |
government the statistics of the grain
crops of the south in 1502. The total
values are as follows: Corn 502,487,
609 bushels, valued at $276,555,894;
wheat 48,872,127 bushels, valued at
$39,069,619; rye 1,352,892 bushels, val
ued at 8975,514; oats 56,176,872 hush
els, valued at 826,252,265,
These ficures show that the grain
crop of the south—corn, wheat, oats
and rye—is about the same in value as
an average cotton crop, but the growth
of diversified farming in the south
promises within a few years to make
the value of these crops much larger
than that of cotton.
THE old saying that “biood is thick
er than water’ is illustrated in the
case of lieutenant Governor J. H.
Tillman of South Carolina. While he
has been on bad terms with his unele,
Senator Ben Tillman, for several
years, the senator called on the pris
oner at the Columbia jail the other
day and had a private interview with
him lasting several hours. The young
er Tillman has opposed his uncle po
litically for ten years or more, but no~
the senator has gone to his relief,
promising to do all in his power to res
cue him from bis unpleasant posi
tion.
GENERAL CLEMENT A. EVANS, com- ‘
mander of the Georgia division of the
United Confederate Veterans. has an
pounced that the coming reunion at
New Orleans will be the biggest ever
held by the veterans, and that Georgia
will be represented by a larger
delegation’ than ever before. Many
of the f{rost-capped old heroes of
“Terrell county will attend, and we of
the younger generation will rejoice
with them in the comradeship and
pleasures of the occasion. There was
neyer braver or more heroic men.
““BARKIS is willin’’’ as ever. Inre
plv to a pvinted question from the ed
itor of the Cincinnati Times-Star as to
whether he is a candidate for the
:,p:esidency, ex-President Cleveland
writes: *I cannot possibly bring my
mind to the belief that a condition or
sentiment exists that makes any ex
pression from me on the subject of the
least importance. Yours very truly.”
The rod is up, sure.
THE dispatches announce that form
er Governor Candler has accepted the
presidency of the Etowah Gold Mining
and Milling Co., a corporation cap
italized at $1,000,000 and which owns
gixteen mining claims in Lumpkino
county known as the Lilly oroperty.
We hope the governor will find dig
ging in the mines more profitable and
pleasant than plowing in the political
fields.
THE two white men who attended
a negro frolic in Coffee county and
shot several of the sable-hued revelers
in a difficulty that occurred before the
festivities were concluded, should be
taught a lesson by the law. They
were entirely out of place as white
men, and if the published accounts are
true their conduct was inexcusable
and reprehensible.
' Dr.J. L. M. CURRY, the executive
‘head of the Peabody fund, died at
Asheville, N C., Thursday night after
an illness of some time. Dr. Curry
was a remarkable man, and attained
great prominence as an educator,
statesman, diplomat and soldier. He
was a native of this state, and gradu
ated from the University of Georgia in
1842,
ALL sorts of new things that are
enemies to that class of our people
whose living comes from the ground
are constantly being found. State En
temologist Scott has issued a document
which deals with the subject of ‘‘curl
diseases of the peach tree and the
treatment of the same.” The peach
curl is said to be very damaging to
the peach industry in Georgia.
THE bill which has been introduced
in the Kansas legisiature to prohibit
the eating of snakes should be pigeon
holed. The fellow who ‘‘eats ’em
alive,” or any other way, for that mat
ter, is a sorry sort of a cuss, but he is
a public benefactor and should be en
couraged.
THERE is a good d«al of talk about
the governor of Georgia not being
paid enough. The governor of Geor
gia is a fairly well paid man. He gets
much more from the state than the
$3,000 which is paid him as salary.
SCORE one for Macon. That town
has actually outdone Atlanta in an ef
fort to get the Georgia State Fair. Tt
will be held next fall, and Macon
promises to maxe it one of the best
shows we have ever had.
THERE is talk of increasing the.sala
ry of the president of the United
States from $50,000 vo $lOO,OOO a year.
As has been jremarked, ‘‘we should
firat get one who is worth the mon

GOVERNOR TERRELL, while on his
northern trip, cut the white house
from his yisits. But that is not sur
prising as Governor Terrell is a Geor
gian, aud withal a white man.
THE Savannah Press says ‘‘Mr.
Bryan is very particular with whom
he eats dinner these days.” As a loy
al democrat ani self-respzcting man
why shoulda’t he he?
BARON SPEC VON STERNBERG, who
has been acting for Germany in the
Venezuela negotiations, does not seem
to be much of a speck after all.
A POSTOFFICE is to be established
in Missouri bearing the name of Roose
velt. They are not very particular
about names out there.
THE Monroe Messenger says ‘‘Judge
Parker seems to be the coming man.”’
He does, certain. He's coming to
Georgia.
THE old question, ‘‘Does farming
pay?’ has become a chestnut. It pays
when it is done right, like it is here
in Terrell county
MR. HANWA says 1v is all a joke.

NEGROES APOSTLE SMOOT’S GUESTS.
Utah Republican Senator-Elect Entertains
Them With White Persons.
SALT LAKE, Feb. 14.—Considerable
comment and criticism have been
aroused in Utah over the® action of
Sanator-elect Ree Smoot in seating six
negroes at a 4 banquet with white per
sons and having white girls serve them.
Soatherners living in the state express
themselyes on the subject with espe
cial vigor.
“*To think,” said one of them today,
‘‘that Smoot’s father was a Kentuck
ian and a slave-holder! It must have
made the old man turn oyer in his
grave.”
W ASHINGTON, February 14.—As if
the fact of his being an apostle of the
Mormon church did not in itself in
volve enough worry for his republican
associates who are just row, in connec
tion with their anti-statehood fight,
hurling criticisms against that sect,
Hon. Reed Smoot, senator-clect from
Utah has added to the gayeuvy of cur
rent discussion by entertaining some
negroes at a banquet he gave to celes
brate the consummation of the deal
between the republican leaders and
the Mormon church,
It is not so much his ent,erbainiuel
the negroes on a plane of social equal
ity that has exasperatea certain gen:
tlemen here in Washington as it is
thatv he gives his excuse for doing so
the action of President Roosevelt in
the famous Booker Washington lunch
eon. If Mr.and Mrs. Smoot believe the
negroes in question are their equals
socially, their right to entertain them
is not disputed; but that the Mormon
high priesty should just at this
time revive recollections of the Booker
Washington episode is not at all re'-
ished (by the administration leaders
who are endeavoring to make the
country think of something else than
the race issue.
BRYAN WON’T RUN.
Says He Will Be a Worker In the Ranks
of Democracy.
The New York Evening Telegram
prints and interview with g\Villiam o
Bryan im whicn Mr. Bryan says he
would not be a candidate for the demo
cratic presidential nomination next
year.
“] have said on many occasions
that I am pnot and will not be azain a
candidate for renomination,’”’ said Mr.
Bryan, “and you cannot make that
statement too emphatic. Under no
counsideration would I again go into
the field, and I say this now for the
benefit of my friends in the east. 1
am a plain worker in the democratic
ranks, and content t 0 remaln as
such.”
‘“l'hat being the case, what, in your
opinion, ought to be the real issue of
the next campalgn on the democratic
side?” Mr. Bryan was asked.
“Kvents make issues,”’ answered the
former candidate, ‘*but the trust ques
tion and the question of imperialism
are just now necessary issues. The
tariff question and the money question
are also yery necessary issues, and
there are many others. But those [
have mentioned are now actively be
fore the country and before eon
gress.”’ -
As to probable ¢indidates, Mr. Bry
an said that he prefered not to discuss
tie subject.
**What do you think of Judge Par
ker of the court of appeals, from this
state?’’ was asked.
“J have heard a great deal of favor
able comment about Judge Parker,”
was the reply, ‘‘but when I ascertain
what men are aspirants for the nomina
tion I will make it my business to in
vestigate the men and the principals
which they are supposed to represent.
Then I will be prepared to discuss
them,
' A Fussy old Crank.
From the Savanuah News.
The fussy Dr. Parkburst of New
York, still harping on tbe woes of the
colored brother, asserts that ‘‘even in
this country the roots of slavery still
exist, and it is for us to see that those
roots are not restored to life and
growth.”” Probably the nearest ap
proach to slavery that vhere is in thnis
country it is to be found in Dr. Park
hurst’s own section, in the sweat
shops and dives. In the east side of
New York city can be found ignoraunce,
depravity and immorality incompar
ably worse than anything of the sort
known in the south, even amoeng the
negroes, and certain kinds of slavery
that would not be tolerated in a south
ern community for asingle day.
‘ g
The Model Young Man.
In order to popularize his sermons, a
preacher in Chester, Pa., has adopted
the expedient of requesting his congre
gation to furnish his ideas for him.
Recently he preached on ‘‘the model
young man,’”’ and the young women of
the church furnished the points of the
discourse, each giving her idea of
what a model young man should be.
The men of the congregation say that
the individual described by the preach
er will only be fonnd on Avenve A of
the New Jerusalem; that he is a
scintillation of virtues and does every
thing about the house except earry out
the smoke and shovel the raindrops off
the sidewalk.
A Farm for a Song.
A fine Florida farm went literally
“for a song’’ the other day, but it was
not in the common acceptance of the
term. William Marshal Cook is the
composer of a song called. ** ""I'is Sweet
to Be Remembered.’”” 'The other day
he heard Miss Jessie Mae Hall sing it
on vhe stage in New York., and was s 0
charmed with her rendition of it that
he deeded her a fine farm he owned in
Florida. Mr. Cook says that thus did
he not only recognize talent, but make
good the title of his song.

| A DIABOLICAL DEED.
' Potash Given to Mules and a Horse—The
| Horse is Dead. .
| Frora the Albany Herald,
l Yesterday afternoon Jane Wilkins,
ap industrious negro woman who farms
lon the Wilson place south of Albany,
brought three mules to the city to Dr,
i Ferrell, the well-known horse doctor,
for treatment. The mules were troth
ling at the mouth, lips were raw and
their tongues badly swollen. Dr. Fer
rell decided that the beasts had been
given potash, and treated them accor
dingly. The mules were finally re
lieved and will be taken back home
this afternoon But when Jane
Wiikins went home last night she
found that after she had left for the
city with her suffering mules her
'horse was attacked in the same way
‘that the mules had been. The horse
died this morning. Itis evident that
the potash was given to the mules and
horse by a malicious person. The
mules were all right when turced into
the lot at noon yesperday, and the
horse was all right when Jane Wilkins
left home with the mules. It is a bad
case of fiendishness, and it is to be
hoped that the guilty party will yet be
apprehended.
A SUMTER FARMER’S BIG LOSS.
Flood Carried Away Large Number of
Cows and Hogs.
From the Americus Press.
‘T he heavy rains of the last few days
have had a disastrous effect on some
of the plantations below here, destroy
ing stock of different kinds and damag
ing the lands by washing.
On the plantation of Mr. J. L.. Cham
bliss in this county, on the river, a
rise of eight feet in one night is the
record.
Mr. Chambliss has alarge farm, well
stocked, and pays a great deal of atten
tion to stock raising. In his pasture
he had many cattle, and when the wa
ter rose 1t swept off a whole drove of
hogs and cows.
In summinys up after the passing of
the flood Mr. Chambliss tinds he lost
twenty cows and twenty-five hogs.
State Prison Farm Makes Money.
The Atlanta Constitution tells us
that the members of the state prison
commission are feeling good over the
rise in the price of cotton. The com
mission has 430 bales of cotton raised
on the prison farm at Milledgeville,
which they expect vo sellin the course
of the next tew weeks. Theyintend to
sell it to the greatest advantage of the
state, and expect to get sSomething like
818,000 for the entire lot. The state
farm has come to be a paying institu
tion, and is beginning to more than
supnort itself. In addition to making
409 bales of cotton every year, the
farm produces all the vegetables and
meat needed for feeding the prisoners
there. Since the above was put in
type the cotton has been sold by the
prison commission for $2O. 781.38. 'l'he
crop wasunusually fine and averaged
9.64¢c. per pound. Four hundred and
seventy one bales were sold.

From the Blakely News.
In all articles concerning our con
gressman The Dawson News refers to

districi—not the city of Dawson—in

refreshing way of lookiag after the in
