by helping the republicans to
the house*.
republicans have elected mqre
embers to the • 47th congress than
have the democrats,- but should the
democrats hold all their , own votes and
get those elected as greenback demo
crats, the republicans will not have, a
majority. Things being so close, the
disaffection of a single vote.will lose
the organization to the- democrats.
Seeing the chance, and desiring the
control of official patronage in Geor
gia,. Emory Sneer; meinbtr .from the
9th Georgia district, has decided to
play Mahone and vote with the repub-,
licans when it comes to organizing the
iicmse next december.
It is reported positively that Speer
has had an iu^irview with Garfield and
entered, into a compact will* him. -Gar
field to comply with the wishes of Speer
in certain appointments to office in
Georgia, and Speer to vote with the re
publicans in electing the officers of the
house.
This may be simuly a.canard, but we
are inclined to believe that il is true.
Be it as it may, Speer has never been
averse to creating msensatidn and gain
ing cheap notoriety for himself.
Though a so-cal'ed independent dem
ocrat, Speer has several times iri con-
.gress displayed an inclination- to claim
fellowship with republicans, tliough he
has repeatedly proclaimed himself as
good a democrat as could be found in
Georgia.
Believing that Speer stands ready at
any time to prove himself a traitor to
the democratic voters who gave him his
seat in congress, we are not afraid of
the results, A pronounced republican
can be more effectually fought than a
republican who professes to be a demo
crat. An enemy in the camp, in the
guise of a friend, is a,liost in himself,
while in open opposition lie is but one
man. ; .
Let the independents in Georgia, join
the Mahone movement if they will, the
democracy will be only the more solid
ly united, and will score victories more
decisive than ever.

* * Tlj-rrsucb an exhibit may be
made, Mr. H. I. Kimball has drawn a
bill- covering the subject to~be submit
ted to the legislature when it meets in
Atlanta next Wednesday. ^
This bill, as it is to be presented, is
pnblislied on the fourth page of this is
sue. It provides for an.exhibit of the
products, minerals, ores, industries,
etc), of Georgia in a complete and full
way, under the supervision of certain
state officials, providing also an appro
priation of $20,000 to pay the expenses
pertaining To collecting j and arranging
the exhibits. . -
This appropriation is shall in com-
parison to the good to our state that is
sure to follow an exhibition to repre
sentative men of the world of our vast
resources of wealth. ' Without- an ap
propriation an exhibit that will do cred
it to our state cannot be made. . Indi
viduals, corporations and communities
may make exhibits that will creditably
represent the advantages of certain' lo
calities, but Georgia wants -a compre
hensive exhibit of the advantages offer
ed by the state as a whole.
If the legislatufe passes this bill at
all, and we certainly hope for its pass
age, it should do so at once to make it
most effective.
A copy of the bill and an* addres:
from Mr. Kimball has been sent to ev
ery member of the legislature, and no
excuse can arise from the lack of prop
er notification. . At Georgia’s capital

This world which lacks a good deal
of being full, is about half full of men
tal fumblers—people who think awk
wardly. They seem to take..special
pains to find a wrong point of view to
everything. They see plainly that the
liquor trafic is an immeasurable evil,
and forthwith proceed in all manner
of impracticable ways to obstruct it.
The simple philosophy of the thing is
this:' that buyers and consumers are
primarily, secondarily and finally re
sponsible for the traffic- Defilers
merely serve the people who go about
looking for the stuff. If tire same .peo
ple will go about looking tor anything
whatsoever that can he found or pro
duced in I'he world, there will rise up
dealers to meet the demand and to
keep pace with it. As to the guilt of
the trade, .‘the buying of. -a drink is
precisely as iniquitous as the selling of
of it. The seller is licensed—the buyer
is free. Reform begins with individu
als,and so progresses .He who reforms
himself fills the measure of his duty,
“To thine own self be true, and it
must follow as the night the day,
thou canst not then be false to any
man.” “Whoever pleads that - the little
he buys will make no difference, faft^-.
cates a flimsy excuse,
it is “quite utteily utter,” and only.*
equalled by the petty meanness of it.
The little Tie buys constitutes him a
substantial supporter of the traffic to
the extent of his means. 1
There is a yast amount of foolish talk
in-this world about a man’s influence.
The other fellow is accountable for
yielding to- it. Every man is responsi
ble for his own character, and influences
are its natural fruits—forbidden
fruits, if you please, which another eats
at his own-peril. The man who ab
stains from baying and drinking liquor
opposes the whole force of his charac
ter with its influences, to the. baleful
traffic, and quits himself like a man.
He owes the worlcT h'o more than that.
But-he e wes it that much, and he nev-
will be able either to-evade or to shift
the responsibility. The trouble is that
a large majority of bipeds are not men
at all, but a sort of drift, floaters,
hangers-on, sneezers for the takers of
snnff, jogeers to the jumping off place,
with the crowd.

A Disputed Honor.
Two simultaneous dispnfcelics have
been received by Prof. Swift, of the
Warner Observatory at Rochester. N.
Y., by which it appears that another
great comet has been discovered. Prof.
Sbarpless, of Havreford College, Penn
sylvania, states that L. T. Edwards saw
it with the naked eye on the morning
of June 23rd, and Mr. Edgar L. Lar
kin, of New Windsor, 111, also reports
seeing it and that it is vast. It seems
probable that the tail is not less than 15'
degrees in length, while, the head* is as
bright as Jupiter. The new comet is lo
cated in the constellation of "Auriga
about 8 degrees from Capella, and it is
not improbable, that it may be the much
,expected comet of 1812 which should
