Advertising rates made known on Demand Job Work Neatly and Promptly Executed. Poliliciil matieis in Rockdale are moving along nicely. There is nothing in the world that makes a politician so hair-tear¬ ing mad as to have the people pack a convention on him. — Four times has the White House been draped in morning since Pres¬ ident Cleveland became its occu¬ pant —'for Grant, for Hendricks, for Arthur and for Waite. The United States spends annu al!v $16,000,000, so it is said, for products that can be made at home from materials now considered use¬ less. The Princeton factory, situated hear Athens, is soon to be increas¬ ed to 1.200 spindles. The mill in¬ terest of Athens is on a boom. The Georgia factory is enlarging to 10, 000 spindles. A new cotton mill is Vicing erected at Barnett Shoals, be¬ sides improvements being made on the Athens factory. Sonator Blackburn is very much pleased with the recent endorse mentsby Grand Army posts of his speech is* reply to Senator Tngalls. He say* they attest tiro approval given by brave men to his efforts to defend the memory of the brave dead. In the meantime Ingalls goes on writing vindictive letters. Mayor Abram Ilewitt, of New York city, is said to be nursing presidential aspirations. Mr. Ilew¬ itt is a pretty good democrat, and a politician above reproach so far as honesty and sincerity are concerned. But President Cleveland is so un¬ mistakably the choice of the dem¬ ocrats all over the country, that Mayor Hewitt’s ambition for the nomlnaton is hopeless, if not mis¬ chievous. Hon. Roswell P Flower, of New York, who 1ms been represented as fin opponent of President Cleve¬ land's renoniination, says that •‘things have been so arranged that Gov. Hill is in full accord with the administration and, moreover, Gov. Hill will bead the New York del¬ egation at St. Louis. Tammany and the County democracy will work together beautifully this time, and every other issue will he sunk to get a big majority in and about New York.” Those wishing information on the tariff will read with profit Sen¬ ator Colquitt’s speech published to day. The speech is a master pro¬ duction and ihe senator presents bravely the main issue on the tar¬ iff question. By actual figures he shows how the people of the whole country have been oppressed with grievous and unreasonable taxation to support mischievous schemes and jobs. The speech hi a word is one worthy of careful study. If this respect is paid it, the tariff is¬ sue in this section is settled at least fo rsome time. From the edition of Geo P. Row¬ ell A; Co’s “American Newspaper Directorjq’ published April 2d (its twentieth year), it appears that the Newspapers and Periodicals of all kinds issued in the United States and Canada, now number 16,310, showing a gain of 890 during the last 12 months and of 7.136 in 10 vears. The publishers of the Di¬ rectory assert that the impression that when the proprietor of a new.- paper undertakes to state what has been his exact circulation, he does not generally tell the truth is an er roneousone; and they conspicu¬ ously offer a reward of ? 100 foi every instance in their book lor this year, where it can be shown that the detailed report received fro' a ^ruUUaher was untrue.
