glad to see our contempo-
king mention to the world the
Albany has been done an m-
i the population whioh the of-
glvcs us. There are num-
oltlzens in town who were
on at all by the census
many of them have so stated
It is time for the city
in hand and demand
igs be righted.
Perhaps there is no man In Con
gressional politics to-day, who Is at
tracting more universally the atten
tion or the public than Thomas E.
Watson of the Tenth district.
But his fame Is due to no personal
merit, nor to any brilliant aud meri
torious record; it is simply the result
of the vain and boastful blabblngs,
and the foolhardy Third Party twad
dle which fall from the lips of a polit
ical traitor and a socialistic dema
gogue.
When he flrst renounced the Demo
cratic flag and turned traitor to his
party, and the people who gave Him
office, onlookers were amazed and
dumbfounded at his course, but many
shook their wise heads and exclaimed
"The man is conscientious In bis oon-
vlctlons.”
But when we add to the Infamy of
his deserting his party, his cowardly
attack upon certain members of Con
gress through the medium of his book,
his preaching of social and political
equality to the Negroes, and his pur
chase of the Negro Wilson to aid him
in Ills corrupt campaign, we can no
longer accord him conscientiousness
of convictions, but must denominate
him as the politician who vlewa pub
lic office not as publlo trust but as a
private gain, and who esteemB fame,
no matter how obtained, whether beg
ged, bought or stolen, even above
honor, ai the sum .and substance of
earthly possessions.
Add to his corruption the fact that
ho is the candidate of a party whose
platform, although they may not now
realize it, alms a blow at the prosperity
of the oountry, and It is time to ask
what reasonable man oould give such
a candidate kls support.
We hope the good people of the
Tenth will show the world that their
politics Is not In the hands of such a
political demagogue,

The IIxitALn doesn't do lialf the kick
ing and scolding that It Is asked to do,
nor does It give voloe to nil the com
plaints that are lodged with Itby well-
meaning citizens. But we have been
asked to call attention to the impor
tance of linving all the old abandoned
cisterns In the city filled up, and we
renlly think the suggestion n timely
one,
Beforo the artesian well era nearly
every residence and business lot In the
city had a cistern on It, and cistern
water was used almost exclusively for
drinking purposes; but now there are
very few, If nny, or our people who
keep their cisterns clean and use water
from them. The result la tlmt there
are a great many abandoned olterns In
the e|ty, and they not only breed mos-
qultoes, but it is the opinion of physi
cians and others that they arc the
cause of n good deal of slokness. All
of tliqin have more or less stagnant
wnter In them, and many of them are
left open and are in n state of utter
abandonment.
Would it not be well fertile city au
thorities to linvn nil inspection made of
the oisterns In the city and take steps
to have those that arc in bad condi
tion either tightly covered or filled up
entirely? We are wall aware of the
fact that the lining up of a cistern is
no small matter, and do not, therefore,
desire to be understood ns ndvocntmg
nil ordinnneo that would be at once
peremptory, and tbo enforcement of
which would Impose unnecessary ex
pense or hardship upon any citizen;
yet we would urge upon our worthy
City Fathers the importance of hav
ing tlm abandoned cisterns looked
after, and of having them tilled up
wherever one is found In a condition
that Is liable to produoe sickness, it
is only a question of time when they
will all have to ho filled, except, per
haps, those that are in tho streets and
are used Tor fire purposes. And after
our waterworks system Is completed
it is doubtful if we will ever Imve any
more use for these.
MIIUUI.U TAKE A N'liW
From Thurfilay's Kvisiso Hkralii.
Perhaps the outcome of last night’s
pugilistic encounter was one of the
most surprising events with which
the sporting world hns been greeted in
years.
However opposed to such encounters
the majority of peaceful and thinking
immunity may be, the dust from that
pugilistic mill carries with It its les
son. Hundreds of men bet thousands
of dollars on the big champion, who
would, they believed, certainly down
the gentleman pugilist, lint with the
dawn of morning these hundreds of
men woke up to find their cash In
other hands.
Such Is the record of events. Every
dog has his day, and Sullivan has had
his. The strong are not always strong
nor are the weak always trammelled
by their temporary limitations. We
learn that all things are variable and
fluctuating, and that time which meas
ures all events, often works In them
sudden and miraculous changes.
But the world at large heaves a sigh
aud gives them but p passing notice.
Kingdom’s are overthrown and kings
dethroned,] empires are devastated,
presidents shot, sluggers slugged, and
hungry mobs overrun nations, threat
ening destruction. For a moment the
world looks on in wonder and then
moves on apace, minding not what has
been, but what is to be.

The officials of the city should take a
new census.
The small population which was
given to Albany by the official census
report, is well known to the readers of
the IIkiiai.I).
It is time to make a correction. We
don’t want to wait ten years for rights
which we ought to have now, and
which our present population would
justify.
The IIKUAi.n would like any sugges
tions as to what public spirited citi
zens think about the matter. It is
time for the proper authorities to take
the matter In hand ami set the city
aright.

There lias been little rain the past
week in Southwestern Gcorgin, and
tile ladds are drying, and the outlook
Is improved. The weather has been
such as to cause cotton to open rapid
ly, and Is excellent for miring tobacco.
Cotton will give a somewhat short
yield and the fiber Is coming Into mar
ket more or less stained. Picking is
well under way, and with a continu
ance of clear weather planters’ re
sources will be taxed to pick the rapid
ly opening orops.
With the exception of an occasional
complaint of potatoes rotting, corn,
peas, sugar enno, ground peas and
minor crops are In good condition.
