The Macon Telegraph has taken issue with Bryan on the question of government ownership ot rail roads. To throw the aged Tele graph into a frenzy, it is only nec essary to point a finger at railroad interests. The Democratic party in Geor gia is big enough for every white voter to find a place in it; and the vast majority of white citizens are now in the Democratic party. This is an unfavorable time for inde pendent candidates, as the returns on Oct. 3d will show. •ludge Frank Harwell, of La- Grange, candidate for Judge ot the Court of Appeals, is strongly en dorsed by the bar and people of his home city and by the lawyers of the Coweta Circuit. He is making a splendid race and his prospects of winning appear to be very promising. Doubtless Judge Harwell will receive a large vote in Coweta county. The voters of Georgia will east their ballots almost unanimously on Oet. 3d for the ratification of the constitutional amendment creating the county of Hen Hill, In accordance with arrange ments made and rules fixed by the State Executive Committee, three candidates for judges of the Court of Appeals will be nominated on Oct. 3d, the date of the general election for the State.

How alxjut steel rails made of native steel and sold in all parts of the world cheaper than they can be bought for at home—the foreign price usually being £18, while the home price is £28? How alwnit American watches made of Amer ican material and sold abroad lor far less than they can be bought for in this country? Secretary Shaw says nobody is injured by the low prices charged to foreign ers. Hut why can the American manufacturer sell to the foreign customer cheaper than lie sells to the home customer? Why should lie? Undoes not sell to the for eigner at a loss. He makes a profit oil'hi 111 else he would not sell at such prices.

The possibilities of farming and gardening for splendid possibili ties when seen in any thing like full view of the present times are staggering. The immense amount of science ready to be used in the business is certainly very vast. The service is only in in its infan cy.— Home and Farm. Forage Crop and Live Stock As Factors in Soil Im provement Science in Farming. Keep It Before Democrats. The democrats of Colorado in convention assembled said: "We declare that there can be no alli ance between the democratic party, or any portion thereof, and those great corporations\vhich attempt, through legislation and through the executive and judicial branches of the government, to exploit the people. Democracy stands for the masses against all class ag gression.” That states the case in a nut shell, and to this end let demo crats m every state remember that "00 man who is officially connected with a corporation that is seeking privileges ought to act as a mem ber of a political organization, be cause ho can not represent his cor poration and the people at the same time. He can not serve the public while he is seeking to pro mote the financial interests of the corporation with which he is con nected." Rough on the Home Buyer. When it was first charged that American manufacturers were sell ing many articles abroad for loss than at home, the Republicans de nied it. When the truth was pro duced, they undertook to break the force of the attack h\ saying that it was merely the surplus product of the manufacturers that was sold and that it did not amount to much. Now Secretary Shaw has been saying in his speeches that a quarter of our manufactured goods ar > sold abroad cheaper than at home, and that is a good thing for the country, which the Dingley Man’s first occupation in this world was the care of the soil and its products. It is safe to suppose that this is to be continued throughout. There is record of progtoss in farming and gardening from the earliest historic times. The an cient Jacob bad insight into a leading principle of making all breeds of plants and animals. And yet it is a fact that more has been accomplished for agri culture and horticulture during the last one hundred years than in all the other centuries of the past. This is the work of science. There is really now no limit to be put to the farmers who ask for co operation from men of learning that are engaged in other walks of life. The farmer of the present time is to be regarded as the right- of-way to look into and apply science to the cultivation of the soil. No class can afford to offer op- 1 position to real progress. The in troduction ot machines nowin use among all the farmers in this country was at first opposed to a 1 considerable degree, but a success ful example here and there was mightier than any opposition, The argument of the pocketbook pre vailed. The introduction of labor-saving articles undoubtedly created a new era in the history of farming and gardening; the applications of chemistry to the soil in its pre vailing form was a greater step still. This chemistry is the fine key that unlocks the earth and lets the farmer and gardener into secrets as simple and beautiful as they were once mysterious and confounding. Without enlarging the boundar ies of the land, the products be come many times increased by the better method. Many are thj di rections in which the mind can have splendid outlet in this new view. We may happily consider the adaptation of soils to particu lar crops. Science teaches the 'thoughtful farmer that a soil may be kept in its strength and even enriched forever so that soil which one year has had fine corn, wheat or cotton may be made to grow this forever. The like is not for the man,how ever, who never reads a book or paper and who is just a plow-fol lower turning a furrow at stated times in obedience to some signs. We have risen in this business by a variety ot steps. The prac tice of grafting and budding has made it possible to fill the orchards of the country with the most de licious fruit. Men are apt to get the benefit of science sooner in gardening than in farming. Near ness to market is always a big item on this account and the garden is thus favored. We think of the vast advantage .lust 11 few lines this time on making an abundance of forage to feed all farm stock and some to spare will not seem out of place. Cotton is the crop that will bring money to the farmers of the South, but if the soli' dcpendancc is placed in the cotton crop the money or the comforts it should buy will not remain with 11s. While cot ton is the magnet to draw wealth to us some cords are required to bind and hold this wealth and the accompanying comforts to our peo ple. Anything which we use on our farms or which is used exten sively in nearby centers of popula tion, and which can be produced at home as cheaply as it can bo bought, constitutes a cord to use in binding the cotton money to our people. Forage crops fall under this head. The average fanner of the South can produce a ton of hay for 111 ik-Ii less than it sells in any nearby town. Yet many, many are those who each year purchase and feed western hay to western reared mules to plow the soil of the South to grow cotton to be manufactured either in a foreign or a northern mill. These things ought not to be. They are not to our credit or honor either. South ern cotton should be made with mules fed upon southern grown oats, corn and forage, and to a con siderable extent the mule should be bred, born and reared upon the same farm he cultivates. This re- 1 quires quite a revolution in our way of thinking and doing. How ever, the changes necessary in ac complishing such a reform are no greater than some which this and other less favored lands have been called upon to undergo. It re quired only about ten years to see many sections of the northwest changed from wheat to live stock and dairy centers. At the same time those centers produce prac tically as much wheat with their live stock and dairy products as before taking up the new lines. Is it not possible for the South to make gradual developments along some such lines and while so doing j keep up the present cotton output, or even increase it as rapidly as the markets may warrant? The men in the eastern half of the belt, who now make a bale to a bale and a half of cotton to the acre, are generally men who use consider able quantities of home made 111a- ; mires in addition to some coinmer- j dal fertilizers. To make home made manures requires the keep-1 ing of domestic animals in con- 1 siderable numbers, and the pro- j ductiou of food stull's upon which ; the animals may 1h* maintained at a profit.—Cotton Journal.

The writing on it is in plain view, to be read at leisure by any postal employe from the time it leaves the sender until it arrives at its destination. During my first stay in Brazil I found that the postal card there in use was supplied with a flap or covering of dark paper, which, when gummed down, completely hid the writing. This flap was at tached to the back of the card, an edge gummed and perforated, the insertion of a finger tip being ali that was required to open it. It served the purpose of a letter at half the expense.—From a Letter , to the Chicago Daily News.
