This announcement has caused a sensn'ion among Democrats who believe that the tarlIf reform platform of 1888 should he Indorsed. They say that whatever the preference of Democrats,ns to Mill and Cleveland,’or us to silver, there should be no step backward in tariff reform. The noinlnntlonof astraight- out protection ticket, with Mill trim mings, would he a reversal of the Issue of the State in 1888. On Friday last there passed through the immigration bureau of New York a well-attired young woman who gave' her name as Nadesehda Vassiclleff. The clerk was surprised to learn tlytt she was familiar with all the princi pal languages of Europe, and her qopr versatlon showed her to be a perspn of education and refinement. She Is a Russian Jewess and one of the many thousands of her race who have been forced to leave their homes in Russia to seek an asylum in more hospitable lands. She was born in Moscow, and educated in 1 St. Petersburg. Much care and money were expended by her family to secure a fine education, and fit her for the vocation of a teacher. When her education was completed she returned to Moscow. There her trials began. First she was forbidden to tench, and when she remonstrated against the mandate she rccilved a call from the chief of police, who or dered her to leave Russia without delay. She appealed to the Governor of the city and was granted a short reprieve. At its expiration came per emptory orders to leave the domain of the Czar. The reshit of a protest was an Intlmntlon that there were two ways of leaving the country open to her—one by way of a train which took exiles to the frontier, and the other with a caravan to Siberia. She, of course, chose the former, nnd departed in company with 1,600. families, who Imd the same alternatives to choose from. She said the words could not picture the horror of their Journey tolVarsnw. For nearly thirty-six hours they stood like cattle In a crowded ear jvlthout food or water or sleep. After many trials, London was reached, from which point she embarked for New York. Tho condition of the peasantry Miss Vassleliell' describes ns one of fright ful misery.

Candidate Stevens started the atll- flnvlt business in the Congressional campaign ill tliia district, and now whenever n Third 1’nrtyitc gets cor nered lie trots out nil affidavit. Col. J. W. Walters, of this city, was reported hy the Thomasville News last week as having irmdo use of a very Indiscreet assertion over at Isabella court. Mr. Walters promptly published a card jo the Hkhai.d repudiating the language accredited to him, and now the News eonies back with this affidavit: Gkoruia—Thomas County. In person appeared before me, J. L. Hall, who. on oath, says that he was present when Mr. Jesse Walters used wnrds In substance as follows: “If Mr. Stevens is nominated, Dough erty county would give a Republican majority or 1,000.” J. L. IIXi.i..’ Sworn to nnd subscribed to before me this May 9th, 1892. P. S. Hkktii, Not. Pub. Thomas Co., Ga. Col. Waiters is absent from home at present, but It is not likely that he would feel called upon to take any no tice of Mr. Halt's affidavit, as It speaks only In Indefinite “words lu substance.' Two women from Wyoming nre to alt in the convention at Minneapolis— just two—and doubtless the time from now until that important ocoaslon arrives will be spent by them In de termining whnt to wear. The Republican conventions are as dumb as oysters on tlie force bill. Atlanta lias kept but half an eye on the Baptist convention. The other half is firmly fixed on tho Atlanta base ball nine. Even the pessimistic Third Party wouldn’t' kick at a soaking ruin throughout tlie Second Congressional district about now. The Democratic party of this coun try needs a school of polities. Our party leaders seem to learn nothing from the school of experience. Ik J. C. C. Black can’t down Tom Watson ill tKo Tenth district nobody can. Tom Watson is no fool, nnd is n hard limn to down on tlie stump. Tiik election light is on nnd the first sliot fired. There were eleven fights nnd one shooting at a special election at St. Francis, Ark., on Wednesday. A relie of the arm of Mary, tlie Mother of Christ, lias been brought, to' America. It is now in New York, but will be taken lo Canada to the church of Ste. Anne do Bcanpre, on the St. Lawrence River. His Holiness, the Pope, authorizes tlie bringing of the fragment to Amer ica to increase the faith and devotion of ail tlie members of the church. To the purely secular mind there is some- tiling solemn nnd awe-inspiring in this gray fragment of a woman who lived and breathed nineteen centuries ago. Crowds of Catholics Imve thronged to tho church in New Y r ork to obtain a glimpse of this sacred relic and to leave a reverential kiss on the ease in which it is inclosed. The Olevelnmlltes and JUnites have already carried their foolish warfare so far that tlie only hope of Democratic success next November depends upon tlie nomination of a third man upon whom both factions of tlie party can be united. Gkobiiia lias been getting tlie fag end of tlie severe storm that lias swept over tlie Western States, causing much damage by heavy rains and floods. Fur the sake of a heavy rain, we be Hove that Georgia would be willing to come in for & small share of Western floods. Tjie Stevensitek of Terrell county met and whereased and resolved on matters and things pertaining to the Congressional campaign, yesterday, nnd it is said that Cnpt. Hobbs, the un- terrilled Chairman of the District Ex ecutive Committee, who, ns a consis tent Democrat, insists upon calling a spade a spade, was the subject, of some of tlie red-hot resolutions adopted: Hindstinct print BUBHHHBHHHsiS J BAGGING, TIES, FERTILIZERS, If you have millions you can buy nothing better than our Lounges Buy them for show and they’re what you want; buy them for ser vice and they are what you want, just the same.
