This Is over one-third of the total expenditures made hy the government, ondpao far, It has succeeded ill keeping the treas ury empty. Nobody denies that a worthy soldier, or hls wldbw, made helpless by the ex igencies of wan, should bo extended government aid; but, could the facts be known, there are thousands of men now drawln'g pensions who were never i,n a single battle in the war, many others wllo were never wounded In warfare, and still others who are rich and Independent. Pensions are ob tained fnr these men through the in- llucncc of the pension sharks in Wash ington wlm are growing rich un the proceeds, and through whom this loot ing of the treasury Is accomplished. One reason why the pension roll is so long Is that It was Increased by the Republican party In hopes that such a course would aid them In retaining power, lint the fallacy of this propo sition has recently been demonstrated, and the people have grown weary of having the public treasury so reckless ly plundered. After tho fourth of March a whole sale investigation of the pension rolls will he In order, and all undeserving pensioners, who can easily be found, should, forthwith, be stricken from the list. The government must he ‘economi cally and honestly administered.’ UKOHUIA ANKTIlIFAm. atok Pkkfskii, of Kansas, Is kling over the Idea that his next gue in the Sennto limy be u an. “There Is nothing constitu- ally wrong In it," remarks the erable whiskered Senator, “al- ugh it may be a little contrary to om." It strikes us that in this in- • custom, right, mid law should ncide. _ LIT8TKATIVK of the contortions ch Republican organs can make emooratio consistency, a para ph in the Chicago Inter Ocean “The Georgia Legislature has t passed resolutions demanding that > incoming Congress shall carry into ct tbo provision of tlie Democratic ional platform for the repeal of * 10 per cent, lax on State banks.” • esteemed contemporary should gbten itself on the facts in the e before making such violent asser- The Georgia Legislature is ply considering a measure which II provide for the issuance of State notes as soon ns the tax shall en repealed, as it certainly w ill i Democratic government. Xo ds have been made. Our con- en have been requested to vote ! repeal of the tax and they will Georgia's enterprising citizens are working bnrd to get an appropriation for a State exhibit at the World’s Fair. Tho following from thu Atlanta Journal, will give some Idea of tho steps being taken to carry' this enter prise through successfully. We consider It n fortunate thing for Georgia that Governor Northen and tho special legislative committee Are going to Ohlcngn to see the progress of thwWnrld’s Fair. After they make this trip they will be better able to Impress upon the leg islature the importance of a Georgia exhibit. It Is certainly the desire of the peo ple of tbV state that we should be rep resented nt the great exposition. If Georgln appears there stall, she should be fnlrly presented before the' eyes of the world. The report of Gov. Northen and the legislative committee on their return from Chioago will be awaited with f treat Interest. It. would be ndthltig ess thnn n misfortune to have Georgia left out uf great army of nations and States at tho World’s Kalr. l'r has been decided to leave the question of onlling nn extrn session of Congress with President Cleveland. TiuiMAaviLLR is now clamoring for n revision of her census. There was something wrong somewhere when the census of tills part* of Georgia was taken. ' Gkn. Rohkoiianh, Registrar pf the Treasury, mtbtnmonds the repeal of the civil servloo law in so far as it ap plies to Ills department. He thinks tne department needs au infusion of new blood, and that the removal of tile government barnacles, wlm have so long held on there, would he a good riddance. Gen, Jioseorans is a loyal Demoornt. Skxatoh Jonkb, of Nevada, delegate to the International Monetary Confer ence, should be called home, as be is doing more barm than good. He said, publicly, In London, that thu new ad ministration would pass n free silver bill without a doubt. However, mem bers of the conference arc generally more of figureheads than unything else, audit is not probable that he will do any one much barm either way. Tub comet now approaching the earth will be, on Sunday night, accord ing to scientists, ns near to us ns it will come. It lias not yet been de termine^ whether or not it is Biela’s comet, which, on two former visits, was aooom panted by several brilliant meteoric showers. Astronomers think that It is probably the same dyer, ami that there will be a repetition of the meteoric showers on Sunday night. Look out for it. Skxatob Wootkx is doing some good work for his constituents as well as for the State. In fact Hilly comes pretty near taking the lead in the Senate, and Albany is proud of it. His local measure amending tile city char ter was the llrst bill to pass the Senate, and it was one of the first to receive the Governor's signature. It becomes a law at the middle of tin' present ses sion, which is surprisingly quick work for tho tlrst session, occupied as it was, with elections. AVjfk—We were horn on the same day, John.

The sohetne is an old' one. These so- called ministers have an eye on that spare cash, and if they succeed, it will not be tiie first lime they have pulled tho wool over the eyes of their Incau tious brethren. The better class of Negroes take no stock In the purported share. They know that they fared better under Cleveland’s administration, than 1 they have done since, and many of them have gone so far as to welcome the re sult of this year’s cleetioh.

A correspondent gives nil amusing instance of how wrong English peo ple get when they come to deal with Welsh names. A short timongou London journalist took up his quar ters in a house at Barmouth, rejoic ing in the. melodious appellation of Ty Fry (pronounced Tivree). This means the "upper house." One morn ing the journalist was astonished to have a letter addressed to him ''care of Mr. Ty Fry,” while another day a further letter came "care of T.. Fry, Esq." To crown it all a telegram foujid him with the uuvger direction, “core of Fry, Bnrniotitli." It speaksvol- umrs for the post office that none of these extraordinary epistles should navo gone astray. Tho explana tion subsequently vouchsafed by his friends was that thoy thought ho was staying with one Timothy Fry.— Pall Mail Gazette. Antiquity of Pin*. Pins of varfous sorts haye been in existence ever since oUr “first par ents” clothed themselves in palm loaves which grew wild in tho Garden of Eden.
