The knack which French photogra phers. and especially those of Paris, possess in relieving their sitters of a constrained and distressed look while efttitig for their portraits has long been the envy and perplexity of photogra phers of other nations. An American photographer, on a recent visit to Paris look pains to study the means by which this very desirable result was reached He reports that It all lies m a very simple device, which well illustrates the nature of the Frenchman. When a lady, for instance, is sitting to a photographer for a portrait, the operator does not. in a perfunctory manner, coldly request her to “Look pleasant now, ma’am!" He says to her in the most natural and graceful man ner in the world: “It’s quite unnecessary to asl; madam to look pleasaut; she could not look otherwise!” The huly of course acknowledges the compliment with her most gracious and highbred smile. ••Click!" goes the camera and the picture is obtained, re vealing the sitter at her high water mark, as it were.—Youth’s Companion AND WILL HOLD A PRIMARY JULY IK).

Deceived by the smell of butter, which he supposed was above him, the insect continued to as cend till ho reached the top, and thus the vizier secured the silk thread.

Russell nnd Spence were with us to day. Their announcement for this plaee had not been made in time to secure the gathering that such talent merited, but these exponents of rock- ribbed Democracy laid an enthusiast io and appreciative audience to-day that cheered their spontaneous efforts to the echo. The Democratic forces hi old Worth are rallying to their standard. A campaign club lias been organized iu nearly every militia district, and Democratic dinners and speakers are the order of the day. A barbecue will be given nt Alford & Sloan’s tram-road on Thursday next, and Democrats and Third Party men are invited to be there mid discuss the issues of the day. At 11 o’clock Hon. B. E. Russell was introduced to the audience by Hon. Wm. A. Harris us a man who was a Democrat, had always been a Demo crat, and did not want to he anything but a Democrat. Mr. Russell ascended the stand un der a storm of cheers, and began his remarks by paying a just tribute Jo Mr. Harris ami Worth county. He then proceeded to give his reasons tor being a candidate. The Democracy was in danger from an injection that had been forced Into tlio life-blood ol' the party by a politi cal machine tliat claimed to represent a recent business organization. He did not believe that this machine rep resents the views of the rank and die of the Alliance. These Alllanceinen lie believed to be the same true and tried Democrats win, hail rallied to their standard anil wrested their coun try from tile hands of Northern and carpet-bag rule._ He did riot, believe that those Demo crats would desert their party new, and follow after false idols! tint that the -majority of the so-enlled Ocala men were rock-ribbed Democrats. But in Hie face of this new political octopus, the so-called Democratic lead ers were silent, many of them fran tically trying to straddle the fence, and others sawing wood and saving nothing. Ill this emergency lie had been asked to uphold Democracy’s standard. The cause of this was than he had always been in the liabit of talking, ever since he had been born talking, and had always been too ready to speak out. In meeting. In these days of Third Party pre- tensiops, no oho had been upholding Democratic principles but its own un- ternfled press, but the Democratic banner was not trailing in the dust. Last wepk lie had seen 1,700 Demo crats in Golquiljt. county, and 2,500 in Berrien couhtyi' Many of these men were members of the Farmers’ Alli ance. But were these men, these ragged and half-starved veterans who had come home from Lee’s army to their ragged and half-stprved wives and children, and.wjio had beep the first ones to enable Georgia to throw off the force of Northern bayonets and build up homes over the ashes of their burned ones, were these men prepared to turn their country, which they had shed their life-blood to Bave, over to the visionary cranks and office- seekers wlio, were seeking to prosti tute : their principles for their own ends? No! a thousand times, no! Tile American people could always be depended upon in any square issue. They should be listened to, and not the office-hunters. He briefly sketched the situation two years ago ill Decatur, when politicians in the Alliance sought to control its actions, aed sig nally failed. In reply to the oft-repeated song that Democracy had done nothing, he spoke of the situation at the close of tile war, and the days of reconstruc tion when you met Federal bayonets on every public road, and were sur rounded by them when you went to cast your ballot. When they con trolled tile State treasury, and stole thousands of dollars annually. Talk about scarcity of money now, but if we had back only the money that was stolen from us in those stormy days, it would give us $100 for every man, woman and child in Georgia, instead of the paltry $50 called for by vision ary reformers. Yet he had heard Third Party men wish that those days of carpet-bag and Negro supremacy were back again, because then green backs were plentiful! In those days, when.we had no voice in our own gov ernment, it was only Randall and his band of true and tried Democrats that acted as a check upon the rapacity of the Re; mblir.au party. It was the Deinoor .tie party that put us back Into the house 6f our fathers, which we had: helped to build, nnd again gave uf u voice in our government. Every law upon tile statutes of the tjmted'States that were in favor of the Southern man, had been placed there i l,y tlie efforts of Democracy. The Democratic party was the only party that wu* not the creature of one sec tion, hut of Hie whole people. 'Talking about increasing the per capita circulation, which was already $23, inure than tliat of almost any other country, nnd sufficient for the needs of all, legitimate exchnnge, the reason we did not have more of it was bVCnifkoV 0 paid all out in taxes ami got none back. It was a question ol' disbursements, not of increase. There were $1^1,000,001) paid out every year in .pendens, Only a handful come South. ' There were over $250,000,000 taken out of Jour pockets every year and given til the proteoted manufacturers of the North. There-wcrc the enormous River ntnl Harbor I appropriations, which were nearly nil spent In the North. He oojtrnsted the Mills nnd McKin ley tariff bills. It was absolutely necessaay for tlio framers of the Mills blil to Leap a lnrge portion of the tariff to meet the demands on the treasury caused by Republican ex travagance, but they proposed to take the lax oil’ the necessities of the peo ple, and put It on the luxuries, and therefore-on those who were able to pay It. The object of the MoKinloy bill was the reverse, It taxed dia monds 19 per cent., and window glass 60 per cent.; it taxed jewelry 25 per cent,, and horseshoe nn I is 118 percent.; broadcloth 40 per cent., nnd a woolen shawl 82 per cent., nnd so on. Speaking of staying dut of politics, no good man could do It who loved his home mid Ills children. They were tile skirmish line of government. They made tile laws and the govern ment. Hpeakjng of the Third Party, he citetl vojers to its lenders. Not a single one of tllem lins any record as n states man. Donelly was known ns the au thor of two books, Jerry Simpson because he wore no socks, and Mrs. Lease because slie wns the llrst woinnn ever to.gn upon the political stump In Georgia;' After tin eloquent eulogy of Cleve land, Mr. Russell spoke of the two armies who were now confronting each other for battle. These were the Democrats and Republicans. Were the voters of Worth prepared to weaken the one of tlnir principles by desertion and go off and join the cor poral’s guard of the Third Party? Were they prepared to go off Into the woods hunting jay birds while lions and tigers were threatening to break down tlie doors of their dwellings? The Negro was nuw happy nnd con tented. But when they saw the white people divided, and Republican lead ers- came nm6hg them pointing out their lime for action, would they re fuse to act? No, they would not, ami It would not be many days after they got control of State government be fore every white man would have tp stand guard at his door. In conclusion, he begged that no man would consider him personally. He wns not even nn atom compared to the safety of the South and the white people, and would gladly sink Into utter oblivion if only he could see the banner of Democracy planted on the walls of a white man’s govern ment. Mr. Russell was cheered to the coho In every one of his utterances, and when he spoke of Cleveland the House went wild. Then there were calls for Spence, and that able bulwark of Georgia law took the stand. , He was only before the people now because the situation in the Second called upon all her sons to do their duty, and because he had heard the Democratic party maligned and tra duced. There were now two candidates be fore the people for Representative from the Second Congressional Dis trict. One of them was a Democrat nnd had been one of the hardest bat tlers for white Supremacy in the days of reconstruction. No man had to ask him where he stood. As to the char acter of the man he would relate a lit tle anecdote. In 1872, when Rich and Whitely was running for Congress, Whitely held a mortgage on the outfit of the Bainbndge Democrat, of which Russell was then editor and proprie tor. Whitely went toJRussell and threatened to' foreclose on him, but told him that if he would go to Albany and establish a newspaper there,- that he, Whiteley, would pav all ol’ the ex penses, and give Russell $100 per month as managing editor, and White ly would edit it himself. Although the Democrat was Russell’s meat and bread, he indignantly refused his of fer, and by the help of some patriotic South Carolinians had anew outfit ready when Whiteley levied on Ills old one, and the Democrat wns still a Dem ocratic paper. Col. Spence went over the situation of polities in the Second, and spoke especially of the District Alliance, which he did not believe represented Alliance principles because it was nothing but a political organization, nnd lmd done nothing since it was or ganized in this district but political acts. He asked nny Alllnneenmn pres ent who considered its action binding upon him to speak, but there wns no answer. He hnd asked others the same question, nnd they said no. It hnd put a man before tlie people who was not known. Men told him who voted for Stevens that, If they lmd known his record, they would not have voted for him. A majority of the men who put him nut for n Democratic candi date lmd now joined another party* Wns their notion binding upon Demo crats' 1 Did nny man know where Ste vens stood? He had persistently re fused to attend Democratic mass meet ings or address Demooratio audiences. No word of Democracy had nppcnreil In his circulars. Half of Ills Executive Committee were Third party men. Sir. Stevens was In the Georgia Leg islature from ’88 to ’87. He had voted to take from the Railroad Commission the power to regulate freight nnd pns- 8enger tariffs on the railroads. Re had voted twloe against the Glenn law compelling roads to pay taxes In the counties where their property lay. He referred to the action of the po litical mnehino in calling conventions in Thomas, Early and Worth, and how, although they lmd been the first to de mand primaries, they now were light ing with all their might ngnlnst them nnd their people, He spoke wnrmly in explanation nnd defense of the notion of the Democratic District Executive Com mittee. They noted according to the power vested In them by their party two years before, nnd by the Alliance Legislature, and by the precedent of every political party since the war, Col. Spenee’B argument was a long and Interesting one, of whioh the fore going Is hardly a synopsis. He was frequently cheered, nnd his effort did credit even to the eloquent orator that he is so well known to be. After his speeoh Mr. W. A. Allen arose, and stated In a plain and oom prcheuslve manner the reason for call ing the primaries July 80. It waB to enable candidates who might be out time to discuss their views before the people; to enable the people to first see all the national platforms put forth by the various political parties, and were all callod for one day to pro yent wire-working and preolnot-heel ing by the various candidates. On motion of Col. T. R. Perry, of Ty Ty, the Democrats present then as sembled In mass meeting, chose J. G, Polhlil as chnlrmnn, and J. L. Herring secretary, Maj. Harris then stated the objeet of the meeting to be to ascertain if the Democrats were satisfied with the action of the meeting of’June (1th Mali Harris then denounced In nn ein plmtle nnd, uncompromising mnnner the report that he was a Third Party man, or affiliating with that party, and tendered his resignation as chair man cf the executive committee. Col. Perry Then spoke briefly of the aspersions upon the Major’s charaoter, and called upon all present who knew It to be false to rise to their feet. Every man rose. The meeting abso lutely refused to even consider l)ls resignation, and he withdrew It. Col. Perry then offered the follow ing resolution, which wns unanimously adopted; Resolved, by this meeting of Demo crats, That the ohnirmnn of the Dem ocratic Kxeoutivo Committee bo re- 3 uesteil to call a primary election for lily 80, for the purpose of eleoting delegates to attend the convention to nominate a Demooratio candidate to represent the Second Congressional district In the Fifty-third Congress, ns recommended by the Democratic Executive Committee of the dietrict and also by the unanimous consent of a Demooratio mass meeting held in Isabella on April 5. After a few more speeches,the meet- ng adjourned. II. Take Possession Of one of our $25.00 Oak bed-ropra suits. You’ll get more satisfaction out of it in a minute than you get out of any other suit you know of or we know of in a.month. About such a purchase as this there can’t be any questionable or doubtful feature. You are in a strange frame of mind if you don’t want your money’s worth j you are of a still stranger turn of mind if you don’t immediately confess that your bed-room is as complete with it as it was formerly incomplete without it. If you want to be suited in a suit, this is the suit to do it. I F --eSbi- /£“>. /■r, Ji There Is No Place Like e. This is more particularly the case if among the attractions of your home is one of our Reclining Chairs. Nothing is-too good the place you live in; if you w the best anywhere, you want it there. . There’s nothing homely about these Reclining Chairs, but homely is the home that hasn’t got them. They would be cheap at a good deal more than we are asking for them; they couldn't be any cheaper without sending somebody into involuntary bankruptcy; and that somebody wouldn’t be the buyer. Are yu a buyer? If not, you never had a better time for becoming one. m if 4 $ It’s No Light Matter The Democratic party In North Car olina seeins to be in trouble. The Dem ocratic convention of the Third Con gressional district in tliat State, refus ed to endorse Cleveland, and nominat ed a Weaver elector. The staunch Democrats also nominated a Demo- cratio elector.
