THURSDAY, JAY 23, 1896.
Bishop Atticus G. lloygood, of
Southern Methodist Episcopal Church,
died at his home in Oxford, this state,
In st. Sund ay after a lingering illnrss. He
was one^Pthe greatest men of the south,
and in his death Methodism loses one
her ablest exponents.
The Macon Telegraph expresses the
opinion that the money put into expo¬
sitions would do more good if invested in
permanent improvements. No doubt
that; but will tbe Telegraph be consistent
enough to pitch into the next effort
go tup a fair at Macon ?
Rev. S. J. Duncan, an evangelist, died
in Atlanta a few days ago after being op¬
erated upon for appendicitis. This is
second prominent man that the Atlanta
surgeons have recently killed that way.
It is getting dangerous for a man in that
city to have a pain in his stomach.
The Savannah Nows expresses a hope
that the Texas idea of taxing all bache¬
lors over thirty years of age $50 per
year will not be introduced into munie
jpal affairs. We think the bachelor nni
sance might be abated by taxing every
one of them over twenty-five years of ago
$50 per annum, the same to be appropri¬
ated in like sums to new babies.
We clip from an exchange thefollowmg
item, which may prove of interest to
some of our readers: With a bit of oil
of cummin upon your person, you can
approach from the windward a horse so
wild that you cannot come near him
otherwise; and then, by putting a bit
rhodium upon bis tongue, you may in¬
duce the animal to follow you like a dog.
Let some neighbor try the experiment
and report the result to the Times.

It is reported that the prayers of the
Christian Endeayorers throughout
country, which were not long ago offered
in behalf of Ingersol’s conversion, appear
to be partially answered. At any rate,
the Colonel has at last found a,church
which he says he would join if it would
admit him. It may not bo surprising
that the Colonel finds very congenial as¬
sociations in that organization, when we
consider his statement that “the doors
are open to Jews, infidels, agnostics, athe¬
ists, and even to orthodox Christians.”
This church (?) is located in Kalamazoo,
Mich., has a woman pastor, and is called
the People’s Church.
New immigrants to the number of lour
hundred and fifty poured into the town
of Fitzgerald recently. This makes about
3,000 western men who have been landed
in Wilcox county up to date, 2,700 of
whom are republicans. They will all be
eligible to vote in the next county elec¬
tion, which takes place in January, and
have things their own way. They have
come out prepared to look out for their
own pecuniary affairs, and now have lo¬
cal politics in their own hands. Wilcox
will be a republican county in the election
of 1897, and the democratic veteran who
gets an office in that county next Janu¬
ary will be a mighty lucky fellow.
The Florida Citizen states that out of
one hundred and twenty-five newspapers
published in Florida, only five or six are
in favor of Senator Call’s re-election. So
far as the newspapers are concerned, they
don’t always represent public sentiment,
and, unless consistent in all their efforts
to do so, frequently make an utterfailure
in their endeavor to shape popular action.
The most that can tie judged by the Citi¬
zen’s statement is that, if the people
want to return Senator Call, they will
have to do so in the face of such oppo¬
sition as the press of Florida is able to
wield. But Senator Call has been silly
enough to array himself against the ad¬
ministration, and has gained the disfavor
of those who sent him back the last time,
without gaining anything on the other
band. He is sure to be turned down.
For some time there has been a little
unpleasantness in Dr. Talmages Wash¬
ington church which just now promises
to settle itself. Dr. Talmage was recent¬
ly employed to preach for the leading
Presbyterian church of that city lor a
fancy salary, and a young l)r. Davis was
employed to assist him. Allwentsmoowi
ly enough for awhile, Davis preaching in
the morning and Talmage at night: but.
finally the congregation desired Davis to
retire, giving Talmage both hours, which
he refused to do, even though his salary
was to lie continued. Tbe matter was
settled last Saturday by Davis accepting
lis salary for the balanee oi the year, und
hunting a new field; leaving the congrega
tion to listen in peace to Dr.' Talmage
twiee a day, or as much oftener as they'
• might decide upon.
the war nearly over.
The sensationalists have been having a
gay time this week, feasting on war ru
mors. Some “Smart Alex,” who claimed
to be on the inside, had it reported that
England had bought Cuba oh a direct in¬
sult to our country, and that her war¬
ships were coming over to put down the
rebellion in that country. This same
“Smart Alex” reported President Cleve¬
land as having telegraphed the Fb r.da
militia to be in readiness to hold the Brit
ishors in check—the very absurdity of it!
—until other states and tbeUuited States
should coine to her rescue. For all this
there is not the shadow of a foundatiou,
further than that some of the British
warships have, as is their custom when
not otherwise engaged, gone on a cruise
without making known to the public
their destination. In this there is noth¬
ing unusually demonstrative towards
this country.
Tiie truth of the war matter is, there is
not nearly half so much fight as there is
talk in the air. Though we are not at
all afraid to measure arms with England,
we could not gain anything by fighting
over a thing in which we have so little in
teiest as in Venezuela. Besides our conn
t-y has not gone into the matter expect¬
ing to fight unless it were forced upon
her, of which there is small probability.
England knows our strength, largely from
exp rience, and while she would not hesi¬
tate to resent an insult from us, she would
go a “right smait” out of her way before
she would give bs a dare.
The Venezuelan matter, out of which
all this sensation lias sprung, wiilwhortly
be amicably settled without so much as
the shedding of a drop of blood over it.
Meantime the sensation monger will get
in his work in feeding the hungry multi¬
tudes.
An exchange soliliquizcs that if Presi¬
dent Cleveland was to die, his haters
would be in a quandary as between speak¬
ing honestly of him or continuing to be¬
smirch his memory. But its not so with
the populist-freeeilverites—they befoul a
dead man as readily as aliveono. When
Gov. Atkinson was lying at the point of
death and the report came that he was
dead, a populist of our town declared
that “it is a pity that he hadn’t died lorg
ago!” Again when Secretary Greslmm
died last year, wo heard another one ol
them say “that’s good; but I wish it had
been Cleveland 1” We beard another one
declare that he "would take pleasure in
cutting Cleveland’s throat as I would a
hog’s!" And a populist editor-preacher
not long since through his paper
ed a wish that some man would go up
Washington and assassinate the
dent. This is the kind of people many
Cleveland’s haters are, and they
not hesitate to go on with their
foul prattle if he were to die. No
throwing them out of a job 1
The Times has just had its attention
called to au important ruling of ex-State
School Commissioner Bradwell when in
office a few years ago, an outline of which
we give on account of its importance to
the masses.
The case was one in which L. G.
had brought suit against the Tennille
stitute to require it to admit hischildren,
without the further payment of tuition
by him, to its public term. On this
Commissioner Bradwell said; “I rule
the Tennille Institute, or the
thereof, have no authority to refuse ad¬
mission to the children of L.G. Davis, who
applies to have them admitted for the
public school term of one hundred days,
and upon the merits of the common
school fund only; but the said children
are not entitled to tuition in other
branches than those embraced in the
common school curriculum. The Ten¬
nille Institute and all other schools con¬
ducted on a similar plan must give up
the common school fund or receive pupils
free.”
Continuing, he rules that all schoo's
which receive the benefit of the freeschool
fund are public schools, and that though
they may, by special contract with the
patrons, run as long as ten months—or
a year—any child of school ageis entitled
to one hundred days’ schooling during
any part of that school without the pay¬
ment of further tuition. As explaining
this, he says that the policy of the state
is to guarantee to every child who will
embrace the opportunity, free tuition for
one hundred days, but she asks the par¬
ents to supplement her efforts by adding
voluntarily to the fund she distributes.
A supplemental contract of the long-term
s:hool (as schools running longer than
five months are called) between theteach
and the patrons is, of course, volun¬
tary; and while the state is responsible
for the payment of her share, the
the putron agrees to pay is a valid
and may be collected in the courts.

A WEEK IK WASHINGTON
A Weekly Letter from Oar Regular
Correspondent.
Washington, Jan. 17, 1896.
l“HurraU! for the winner.” That’s what
all good democrats arc shouting today
whether they are members of the Nation
an’ommitte? or just plain,everyday dem¬
ocrats. This is only another illustration
proving that “nothing succeeds like suc¬
cess.” Yesterday when the Democratic
National Committee met to decide upon
the time and place for holding the next
National Convention its members while
practically unanimous as to the time for
holding the convention, were divided as
to which of the competing cities should
be given the honor of entertaining the
convention. Today, after a contest which
although spirited was good naturedfrom
start to finish, they are all shouting,
“Hurrah! for the winner.” Let every
democrat hope that the same spirit will
animate the delegates to the convention
and that when the nomination is made
every democrat, north, south, east and
west, will shout “hurrah! forthewinner,”
and then takeoff his coat and go to work
to make bim a winner.
IF tbo members of theNationalOommit
tee reflect the opinions'of the democrats
of the Stntes they represent, the old dem¬
ocratic party isn’t ready to pass in its
checks just yet. A more co:-ky set of men
never assembled in Washington. They
believe to a man that the democratic
party lias a chance to ret neve its fortunes
and elect the next president, and that all
that is needed is to put up a candidate
who will unite the party and bring out
the voters who have for one cause or an¬
other become disgusted and refused to
vote. And they believe further that this
can be done. It all depends upon the
rank and file—the plain, everyday demo¬
crats. There are enough of them to car¬
ry this country. That has been repeat
i d'y proven during the post twelve years,
and can easily be proven again, but only
by united action. Let every democrat
appoint himself a committee of one on
the good of the party, andlhere will be—
there can be no doubt of the result. If the
republicans elect the next president it will
be solely the fault of men who believe in
democratic principles but do not lire up
to them.
Dr. Patten, president of Princeton Col¬
lege, was recently in Washington, for the
special purpose of inviting President and
Mrs. Cleveland to attend the celebration
of the 150th anniversary of that institu¬
tion. No official announcement has been
made but there are reasons to believe
that the invitation was accepted.
Commissioner Loehren’s report of the
condition of business in the Ponsion Bu¬
reau is an effectual answer to the slander¬
ous slurs upon the administration of that
office which are constantly made in cer¬
tain quarters. It shows that on Dec. 1,
the business of the office was practically
i r to date. Since th en 1 he calls of
ten d
largely unnecessary, .have resulted in
throwing the business behind. Of the in¬
terior wurks of the oftlce the report says;
“I am satisfied that tkepfflcers and clerks
are bringing every propefjRdj effort! q udication bear, upon of
the prompt and
all the several classes of claims now pend
ing. Cases that are ready fop adjudica¬
tion are'promptly disposed of, and appa¬
rent delays are usually the result of -neg
ligence or inability on the part of the
claimants or their attorneys to supply
necessary evidence, after being notified,
often repeatedly, of the necessity for fur¬
nishing such evidence.”
Senator Mills, of Texas, made a speech
this week on his resolution, containing
what he believes should be declared to the
world as the financial policy of the U. S.
This resolution contains several distinct
declarations, which may be summorized
timely: 1st, against retirement of out¬
standing tegal tender notes; 2nd, infavor
of the coinage of the silver bullion in the
Treasury; 3rd, in favor of the issue
emergency legal tender notes in case of a
deficiency in the revenues; 4th, against
the isiue oi interest bearing bonds; 5th,
in favor of paying government obliga¬
tions in both gold and silver; 6th, repudi¬
ating the theory that a public debt is a
public blessing; 7th, urging the mainten
nuee of a sinking fund for the rapid ex¬
tinguishment of the national debt.
Secretary Morton this week told a joint
meeting of the nouse and Senate com¬
mittees on Agriculture that his action in
refusing to spend the money appropri¬
ated for the purchase of seeds for free dis¬
tribution was,in a measure, due to abuses,
such as Congressmen selling their untire
quota of seeds for a pittance. The de¬
partment, he said, had in several in¬
stances bought from outside dealers Con
gressmeu’s entire quota of seeds which
cost the government about $300 fore» :h
quota for $75 each, lie told the commits
tee very plainly that be didn’t behove tbe
good accomplished by free seed distribu¬
tion amounted to even a small fraction
of what it had cost.
The action of the Britisn government
affording the same protection to^ Ameri
cans rcsiding in the Transvaal republic
that it does to its own subjects has been
extremely well received in Washington
and 1ms done much toward restoring a
friendly feeling towards the English.

TWO RECORDS COMPARED.
[Atlanta Journal ]
Democrats can afford to compare the
two administrations of President Cleve¬
land with the administration of President
Harrison. From March 4th, 1885 to
March 4 th, 1889, government bonds were
pa id off amoun ti ng t o over f341,000,000.
A surplus, in addition to the gold reserve,
was left in the treasury amounting to
$230,000,000.
At the end of the republican adminis¬
tration on March 4th, 1893, the surplus
left in the treasury by the democratic arV
ministration had been exhausted. The
bond payments duringthattimcaniount
ed to $238,000,000; but ns I he democrat¬
ic surplus practically paid them, thedem
ocratic administration is entitled tocred
it for the settlement of bonds during the
republican administration amounting to
$230,000,000. While the present admin¬
istration, on account of the dislocation
of the currency and extravagance of the
preceding republican administration, wi 1
soon have been compelled to Issue a total
of $202,000,000 of bonds, it will also
have reduced the demand notes of the
government $150,000,000.
It is therefore safe to say that at the
end of this administration the following
comparison can be made between the two
administrations of President Cleveland
and the one administration of President
Harrison;
The Cleveland administration
will be entitled to the credit
of having paid off bonds
amounting to $341,000,000
Of having left a surplus with
which were paid off bonds
amounting to........ ......$230,000,000
Making a total of. .$571,000,000
The issue of bonds will have
been, .$262,000,000
Leaving a net reduction of
bonded indebtedness of... $309,000,000
To this should be added the
demand notes paid off and
not reissued, amounting
to, ,$150,000,000
Making a total reduction of
public debt amounting to $459,000,000
The republican administra¬
tion paid off bonds amount
ing to I..... $238,000,000
But it used a surplus left by
the democrats of $230,000,000
It is therefore only entitled to
the credit of( reducing the
public debt $ 8 , 000 , 000 .

PLENTY OF READING.
The Times has made an arrangement
whereby, for the next few weeks, it can of¬
fer its readers four papers for almost the
price of one. The Times, itself, as our
readers will observe, is a 28-column pa¬
per, full of news to the very brim. It con¬
tains the leading news items from abroad
up to the day before going to press, and
always presents the very freshest local
news, and is the official organ of thecoun
ty, eontainjngexclusively the Ordinary’s
and Sheriffs advertisements. The sub
scription is $1 a year.
The Atlanta Weekly Journal is a large
8-page paper, containing all the impor¬
tant news of the week culled from the
daily edition oi that paper. It’s demo¬
cratic tQ the core. The subscription is
75 cents a year.
The twice-a-week edition of the New
York World has been converted into the
thrice-a-week. It furnishes three papers
of 6 pages apiece (eighteen pages The thrice- every
week!) at one dollar a year. the with
a-week World furnishes news
