The last relay reached New York at a few minutes after 1 o’elook Monday morning, more dead tliaii alive. The message was carried from Chicago to New York', a distance of 975 miles, In four days, thirteen hours and five minutes. It would have been impos sible for relays of horses to have ac complished (he distance In that time. Military oncers have watched the re sult of this experiment with muoh in terest, as tlie use of the bicycle in car rying dispatches in times of war has come to be considered of muoh more value than messengers mounted on horses. | 1IUDYABD KlrUKO’S RBVKIVaK. policy if our 8 the course tak Budyard Kipling, the prominent Rnglleh author, did not favorably Im press the people/ of New York, and while In that city was not shown thu courtesy duo One of his position nnd importance.

No one tbat I talked to has nppronched tho manage ment of New York in n proper spirit, regarding it ns the shiftless outcome of squalid barbarism and reckless ex travagance. No one is likely to do so, because reflections cast on the long, narrow pig-trough arc construed as malevolent attacks against the spirit nnd tlie majesty of tho great Ainerluun people nnd lend to angry comparisons. Yet, If all the streets of London were permanently torn up nnd nil the lamps wero taken down, tlifs would not pre vent the New York streets, taken in a lump, from being first; cousins to thu Zanzibar foreshore, or kin to thu ap proaches of u Kaffir kraal.” Tint KIND lir I'ltOrUCTION TI1K ■rawnifUM dkv.

And the Philadelphia Record kindly enlightens its rural contemporary by suggesting that the 25 cents a bushel tariff on potatoes was not intended to help John Shlmp, but to fool him into a belief that he Is “protected." When tlie potatoes In this country rot, and are scarce, the prlee of Im ported potatoes is lnoreased to the ex tent of the duty. The farmer has to pay the extra 25 cents a bushel on what he needs to eat and for seed. When the potatoes don’t rot the crop is always In exoess of demand; and it doesn’t pay to import potatoes. John Sbimp is “protected” in the same potato fashion on his apple crop, 25 cents a bushel; on his hay, $4a ton; on his beans, 40 oents a bushel; on his wheat, 25 oents a bushel; on his straw, 80 per cent, ad valorem. There is noth ing too good for John in the way of faroioal, potato “protection" on tlie things of which John ami the coun try have a surplus. It is on the things he hasn’t got tbat effective, marrow- searching “protection” is placed—on his salt, hta sugar, his lumber, hlB clothing, bis tools, his medicines, his fuel—on nearly everything he has to buy. But the other fellows, who re fine the salt and sugar, and saw the lumber and make the olotb and tools, get the swag. John pays- He has the misfortune to be engaged in a produo tive industry which cannot be “pro- tented,” and he has to help pay the other fellows engaged in unproduo' tive or unprofitable industries which cannot stand alone. Nuna in tboman. True Democracy and Democrats of tlie all-wool-yard-wlde quality seem to have gone down below par in Thomas oounty, H any further 1 evidence of this fact than was furnished by the proceedings of the recent Alliance Democratic mass meeting at Thomas- ville were needed, the following which we find in Times-Bnterprise of this morally; ought to be sufficient i. ' Whereas, At a previous meeting of J. B. Gordon Alliaeoe, No. 518, we did tesssss. “ st Whereat, Since that time, we learn thit our totlon Aid not meet the ■ nrovai of Georgia’s political “boa , L F. Livingston, and we were notified through our official organ that < ’naonraettofi ’that said de- waa not will sot rescind reiterate oar al legiance to the Ocala and St. Louis de nials. Resolved further, Tbat we endorse former notion, ti tai—- ~-r— recommend all truq allli thronghout the State to do thi I,. J. Riobbv, Pres. W. H. Pope, Beo’y. We take the above from the South ern Alliance Farmer of the 17th of May, the official organ of the State Alliance, but for months an outspoken and bold advoeate of the Third party. It will be remembered that Colonel. Ltvingston tried to displace Editor Irwin for advocating the Third paVty, but failed. It will also be observed that the John B. Gordon Alliance “en dorses the policy of our State organ and sustain the course taken by Ita editor.” Mr. W. II. Pope Is on the Democratic Executive Committee of the county, representing the Spence district. Mr. Pqpe, as a member of the Democratic Executive Committee .should promptly disavow these Third party resolutions. The Blaine boom has started again, and this time It looks like it means something. Within the last month, the West has had the weather dished up to It with every sauce that the clerk Is capable of concocting—gales, cyclones, .mild rains, and rams a la rush; snowstorms and even blizzards and every style, in fact, except with sunshine. A pi’hhk of $5,000 bus been made up for the capture of the men who at- teirjptcd robbery of the United States express near Sanford, Fla., Saturday morning. At last accounts suspicion had settled on four men, and it Is hoped that they will soon be tinder ar rest/ The people of the Second Congres sional district will hear more from Col. C. B. Wooten before the campaign la over. The Colonel’s recent Illness unfitted him for active campaigning for several weeks past, but lie Is now improving daily nnd will take the stump again, Aoain rises to the troubled surface of political affairs the report that James G. Blaine will take the Presi dential nomination from the Minne apolis convention if it be banded him on a golden platter and without a dis senting voice. It serves ns a topic for a display of rhetoric in edltorinl col umns. Kvidknti.y, things are badly out of olnl In the old Demooratie ranks down In Thomas county. At a dis tance, nnd judging by wlint we sec in the papers, it looks like John Triplett, the veteran editor of the Tlmos-Enter- priBe, Is the only nll-wool, yard-wide Democrat in the cqunty, and lie is be ing maligned for it. There may be some others, but they arc keeping mighty quiet. The usual semi-monthly announce ment that Blaine will be In the race for the Presidency is being sent out from Washington. The lateBt report is ’bused upon a visit of Senator Mc Millan to the Blaine residence, and it Is given out that Mr. and Mrs. Blaine both said that If he (Mr. Blalue) should be nominated by acclamation by the Republican convention he would feet that It would be his duty to aooept. A blow has been struck at Metho dist itineracy, and It is probable that that distinctive feature of Methodism will be abolished. The five-year limit, but recently granted, lias been taken advantage of by many large and wealthy ohurobes. On Wednesday, at Omaha, the Methodist Conference eon sldered the advisability of abolishing even thd five-year limit, and sotne for cible arguments were brought to bear In favor'of the change. The floods In the West get worse In stead of subsiding. As unexpected as it was serious, a flood swept a portion of Sioux City Wednesday night. It is reported that nearly one hundred peo ple were drowned and a loss caused to property of nearly $2,000,000. The pit iable condition of people in the flooded districts is a sight towhioh Americans are but too familiar. So familiar, that calls upop their sympathies or purses are readily responded to. Here is the way the Philadelphia Beeord sizes up the situation in Geor gia : “The Democrats of Georgia have again declined to be advised or con trolled by the little group of protec tionists, prohibitionists and pragmati- oal politicians who flutter about the Atlanta Constitution office and make themselves redioulous by’ an assumed Importance. Cleveland and tariff re form is the or v in Georgia. The South east and the Northwest appear to be flapping together.” A steahob oase, in which one man committed murder apd wat promptly lynched, at his own request, by an ac commodating third man, is repotted from Bastrop, La. Shambles Brigham, manager forCol.Geo.O.Phillip., who owna a plantation on Ialand de Siard, while, in the field, was shot dead Cram ambush by an old Negro, The Negro then walked to (he plantation resi dence, summoned Col.

No motive is assigned for the murder, and it telthqdght.tb'at the Negro was insane.
