These are the fellows who were so nice, and so goody-goody la«t fall, that they juit couldn’t fol low the flag of democracy, after it had been placed in the hands of the brilliant young Nebraskan, and were led astray by that will o’ the wisp, which had previously decoyed Major J. F. Hanson into the delusion that a respectable white republican party could be built up in Georgia by the aban donment of sectional issues, and making a fight on purely econ omic questions. They undertook to relegate the brother in black to a back seat, in his own house, and to appro priate the crumbs that were to fall from McKinley’s table to their individual use, and were really happy under the influence of that delusion, until rudely awakened by the prompt denials with which the geuial major met them, in their early demands for a share in the public plunder. When these patriots found that they had played McKinley for a fool and lost and that they had been merely simple-minded pup pets in the hands of Buck, who had used them to the detriment of their old party friends, it was impossible for them to hide their shame, or disguise the meanness they felt, because of their treach ery to their party, and to Geor gia. Some of them returned home and quietly sneaked back into their old places in the democratic ranks, while others, who lacked the moral courage to acknowledge their mistake, enlisted under the black banner of republicanism,and are irretrievably lost. These patriots would have been more excusable, if nearly the last son-of-a-gun of them hadn’t fol lowed their sudden conversion with a demand for “the old flag and an appropriation,” before the waters from the baptismal fount of re publicanism had dried from their dishevelled locks. They could have proven their sincertity and devotion to principle more conclu sively by jumping on the band wagon behind Buck and Rucker, during a season of probation, than by demanding their thirty pieces of silver in such a jiffy. While the experience of these patriots has been anything but profitable to them, it will prove highly beneficial to others, if they will only turn it to good account. It should satisfy everybody that during this generation, at least, re publicanism will never gain any substantial footing in the south, and that those who run off after false gods, in the expectation of political preferment, are doomed to disappointment. Absenteeism has become so com mon with members of the legisla ture as to seriously clog the trans action of public business. This is especially true on Mondays, as a majority go home on Saturdays to visit their families and look after private and fail to get back in time for Monday’s session before the afternoon. But for the free passes furnished by the rail roads, which makes it eheaper for members to go home than remain at their posts, this condition of af fairs would not exist. The grant ing of such passes ought, in justice to the people, be made an indicta ble offense; but this will never be done, because the average mem ber will not consent to surrender up so valuable an addenda to his regular per diem. The Jasper Republican says that the republican party, of Pickens county, is suffering from too much Allred, as all the local pla^^iave been father forbade him continuing iD the team . It seems that the edi tor has the president in tbe‘ nine hole”, so to speak A bill has been introduced in the legislature provining for put ting under the control of the rail road commission, gas, water, electric street railways, telephone and sleeping car companies. It is evident that all the cranks are not dead, and that some of them have been able to slip into the general assembely of Georgia. If the lunatic asylum is not enlarged right away, and these lunatics are permitted to continue at large, they will a:tempt to place lively stables, hacks, drays, planingmills, stores, farms and sausage factorits under state control, and thus put everybody out of the job of looking after their own business. Accidents happen to the some careful as well as to the thought less. Be prepared for them. Keep a bottle of Dr. Tichenor’s Anti septic convenient. KILLIAN HILL Special to THE NEWS.

Last Monday evening about three miles from Suwanee the “Belle” on the Southern road was rocked by unknown parties. Two rocks entered the cars through the windows, passing through the blinds and glass. The one which entered the first car struck one of the passengers. His face was also severely cut by the glass which was burst out of the window. The rock which struck the rear coach passed through, smashing a window on either side of the coach. This rock was thrown with terifiic force, as it shiv vered a blind and glass as it came in, and split off a part of the window sash on the opposite side as it went out. It might have produced death had it struck a passenger. The railroad authorities should spare no pains in their efforts to bring such outlaws as these parties are to justice. —Gainesville Eagle.
