Capt. Bradwell, state school com¬
missioner, says that the indications
are that there will be a larger atten¬
dance at the public schools of the
state this fall and winter than ever
before. He fays the schools are bet>
ter organized than they have been,
and that more interest has been man
ifested oh the part of the people than
ever before The people of the coun
try, be says, aire more willing to be
taxed for educational purposes than
they have been before, and that a de¬
mand has come from all sections ask
ring that the school term be lengthen
■ed from five to six months, and he
hopes that the legislature will pass a
bill, appropriating sufficient money for
the purpose.

pleasure or seeing tins grand
performance we pronounre
it the biggest thing in * *■
York. There is nothing in the
exhibition that would shock the

preacher and nothing demoral¬
izing in the least.

AT BETHEL
SOME GOOD SPEAKING— A LARGE AND
ATTENTIVE AUDIENCE.
On last Saturday we had the pleas¬
ure of attending an alliance rally at
Bethel in Sheffield.
We left Conyers about eleven o’clock
to get to Mr. Whatley’s for dinner.
We got to Mr. Whatley’s about half
past 12 o’clock and found dinner
waiting. And such a dinner as it
was, it was enough to tempt the ap«
petite of the most fastidious epicune
We are proud to say that we hardly
ever saw such a variety. Vegetables
of all kinds, luscious brown chickens,
preserves, jellies (and as Artemus
Ward would say) “etsetery etsetery”.
In fact, it was just such a dinner as
only a thrifty farmer’s good wife
knows bow to prepare.
I want to say that if I fail to do
justice in describing it I did not fail
to do justice there. To say that we
tkorugbly enjoyed it would be putting
it mildly.'
After dinner we repaired to the
church and found a goodly number of
alliancemen and women gathered to
bear the speaking. The exercises
were opened with prayer by Bro. E.
L. Turner.
The first speaker was Professor Ed
Moon of Walton. He was Followed
.
by Bro. E. L. Turner, who entertained
the crowd for twenty or thirty min
utes,
The next speaker was Col M. D
Irwin who held the crowd spell bound
for an hour and a half. His speech
was well received by the entire crowd.
Col. J. R Irwin was then loudly 7
called for and responded in an inter¬
esting speech of about half an hour
which was well received.
Mr. T. M. Thomason was then in -
troduced and made a short speech
advocating the stay law etc. etc. The
crowd then dispersed all feeling glad
that they had come out. .

The fight is on now in New York
which will decide whether or not Mr.
Cleveland is to be longer consideled a
Presidential possibility. Delegates
are being chosen to the State conenv
lion to assemble eooh at Saratoga,
and a division is made between Hill
men and Cleveland men. If the
suit shows the Ex-President to have
such a small following that he will
have no chance of securing the New
York delegation to the National
Convention, he will be practically
out of the race.

ered at Rock Chapel Thursday

apd, a half.
Hon. W L. Peek was next

QUAINT QUESTIONS.
See how mauy persons out of ten
can answer in a reasonable time all
these queries without a single miss:
How may a circle he drawn round
a person plaacd in the center of a
room so that he will not be able to
jump out of it, though his legs
should be free.
What is the difference between
twice twenty-five and twice five and
twenty?
How may a person stretch bis arms
apart, haveing a coin in each hand,
and, without bringing tne hands
together, cause both coins to come
into the samo hand?
Place a candle in such a manner
that every person shall see it except
one, although he shall not be blind¬
folded or prevented from examining
every part of the room; neither shall
the candle be hidden.
A person may without stirring
from the room, seat himself in a
p lace where it will be impossible for
another person to do so. Explain
this.
A person tells another that he esn
put somethieg in Jris right hand
which the cthea cannot put into his
left.
How can I get the wine out of a
bottle if I havk no corkscrew
m.rt sot teal the glaa. or mate

Reynolds and the Alliance.
Mr. Editor: I like your motto:
“Equal rights to all men (I say
women too) special privileges to
none. What a pity we are not
all controlled by our own mot¬
toes!
I read your paper with pleas¬
ure and wish to say in utmost
kindness that you impress me as
being very intolerant of other
people’s rights and privileges,
sometimes. Suppose the writer
conscientiously differ with you
and the alliance, is that a crime
according to vpur motto? News¬
papers are very sensitive to in
terferanee of their rights in
speech—their freedom must not
he interfered with Surely, the
pulpit has as mam rights as the
press. I have as'much right to
“open vny gun as has The
Solid South.
Rev. John A. Reynolds did
not “open his gun on the alli¬
ance” at Salem campmeeting,
nor has he done so elsewhere.
■Your accusation rests upon fan¬
cy ami not fact. While Reyn¬
olds will fearlessly “open his
upon all legitimate 1 game,
he does not proper e prostituting
it to service (against the pots¬
herds. He is.not in the political
arena, albeit he is and ever has
been for the working man and
the oppressed. and surely
Livingston ifamit
do not pretend to preach the
Gospel, nor did Reynolds, Cand¬
ler and Lee open their batteries
upon their “Long Toms.”
The difieulty jvith you is your
supei'sensitiveness, with many
others. On what food feedest
thou my lord? Pray exorcise it
of its fool spirit that fattens on
gall.
Your order, sq far as 1 under¬
stand, advocates correct princi¬
ples and is moving to right ends,
but it may well pray for deliv¬
erance from many of its friends.
You and they impress me as
being fierce, intolerant, vindict
ive. Parden me if i misjudge
you.
1 wish your order may ac¬
complish all its proposed reforms,
but it cannot he done v\ ith the
spirit of a -Robespierre, which
smells of blood.
Pray, my friend, .by seek to
injure Emory eo. „ LTf* even
though its Preside t does oppose
the alliance,'is he the college?
1 shall continue to exorfc and
'condemn all Christians who are
Jealous for the alliance and in¬
different to the ci uryh.
