Conklins is dead, Beecher is
dead, but Bnrchnrd still lives to
fret Jimmie Blaine.
If Blaine and Depew are the re¬
publican presidential candidates,
what then? Bent ’em.
The man who never made a mis¬
take in his life is deaf, dumb, blind
and still unmarried.
The Democrats of Georgia want
twenty-four genuine tariff reformers
to represent them in the St. Louis
convention.
To call a man “a liar and a dirty
dog” in the Senate of the United
States is not elegant or parliamen¬
tary, but sometimes it is awfully
true.
The great leader, the Atlanta
Constitution, has tossed lip the
sponge on the tariff. With all
their boasted influence they can’t
carry the honest Georgia democ¬
racy.
The Constitution has flopped, or
in other words, is now in line with
the Weekly, Such support as the
Constitution is capable of giving
will add something to the influence
of the great Weekly in the fight
for a modification of the tariff.
Somebody wants our definition
of a “truly unselfish man.” Well,
to boil it down, wo should say that
a man who would rather chop wood
after buisiness hours for the benefit
of the hired girl than see a tax col¬
lector struct by lightning is a truly
unselfish man.
Daniel Lookwood, who has had
the honor of nominating Grover
Cleveland for sheriff, mayor, gov¬
ernor and President will probably
be accorded the privilege of nom¬
inating President Cleveland for his
second term. As a nominator
Daniel is a success.
It appears now that the people of
Georgia are in full accord with Sen¬
ator Colquitt’s tariff views. It
might be in order for the senator
to serve the Constitution with a .no¬
tice that he is going back to con
gresss.
Tt is thought that John Sherman
will go to the convention with the
largest delegation, but not a num¬
ber sufficient to nominate him.
Jimmie Blaine, however, is still
shifting around at mid ocean, and
lie may by a strange fatality fur¬
nish the body for the democratic
party to sacrifice again.
The Constitution states that if
the country press knew Sam Small
as well as Atlanta people know him
there would be no exhibition of ill
temper any where. As for our part
we view the whole thing as a Small
affair, and it will not be many days
before the whole people can unite
in singing Sams.
A recent writer agrees with Arte
nius Ward that the best way to
read character is not to try. No
man ever had a fixed character—
it is always varying. We pass
judgment upon our neighbors as
men of good and bad character,
but we know as little about them
as we know about ourselves.
