Gertrude ltives, the younger sister of Arnelie Rives Chanlsr, is extremely fond of horses and a daring ride. She is almost child like in appearance, but has no end of pluck. Her father owns a hadsome collection of horses, and she spends much time in the stable directing the grooming of her favorites. When she was in Richmond, Va.. last year her fondness for horses created a good deal of excitement, but she followed her tastes with the nonchalance that pertains to her fam ous sister. The Democratic leaders have it in their power to make capital out of the Senate tariff bill. One would suppose that at this critical period in the cam paign, tlie Republicans, in their bill would avoid any further increase of duty on goods already taxed too high.

Wo hud not seen any such statement, hut doubt less it is true, or that paper, so careful in its statements, would not publish them. Such an exposure, by the democrats, just at this time, would have .a wonderful effect upon the farmers, who carry, a far larger bur den of the tariff taxes than any other class of our people. They bear a far greater burden than all the rest of tfa* people, and this fact referred to, would have a powerful effect upon them. The Republican farmers con stitute an immense body of the peo ple, und would surely resent a policy so injurious to them. This shows the despotism of the prevailing idea among the republicans, and the wreckless spirit which animates them in upholding the nefarious purpose of unjustly and unconstitutionally* tax ing that portion of our people who work the hardest and do tlie most to sustain tlie government. We hope the Democratic leaders are on guard, and will not fail to make this matter Cl. B.

It is of the utmost importance for tlie Democrats to succeed at this elec tion. The two parties are more spe cially arrayed against each other in this mighty struggle, than ever be fore, with the high tariff staring the Democrats in the face as professedly tho permanent policy of the Republi cans. If we are beaten at this elec tion the prevailing system will be fas tened upon tlio country with but little hope for many years of moderation or mercy for the people. Political free dom has tong been jealously proscribed by tho Republican party, and if the Republicans are successful now, our condition will be worse than in any former period of our history so fur as the rights and interests of the great masses of the people are involved. But wo hcrpe and believe for the best. He is called into service at many places. His presence creates enthu siasm wherever he goes. On the 15th he left Cincinnati on the “Big Four” for the big democratic barbecue at Shelbyville. He was attended by 200 members of tlie Dutchworth club, one hundred aud fifty of the Thurman club of Cincinnati, fifty moro from the Thurman club of Columbus, all niceiy uniformed, besides a large number who did not go in delegations. He was taken to the depot by a Cincin nati escort-committee and the crowd there gave him a hearty send-off as he walked into the car. He was heartily cheered, the train being literally cov ered with banners and Bandannus. At Gieensbury hundreds werein watt ing impatiently calling for Judge Thurman. JamesB. Townsend, Chair man of the Ohio State Committee, in troduced the Judge as the “next Vice President,” and Judge Thurman told the crowd: “If yon-Democrats of In diana do your duty and give us this State, that may turn out to be true.” All the towns and people along the route filled the air with cheers. The crowd at Shelbyville was way up in tlie thousands. We cannot make room for the descriptions of the banners, the admiring presence of ladies with their Bandanna parasols. There were three stands for the speakers, among them being Senator Voorhees, Gen. Black, Gov. Gray and others. The crowd was estimated at from 35 to 40 thousand at the fair grounds. We pass over all other portions of the Old Roman’s speech to present to our readers what lie said of President Cleveland, reported as follows: “There never was a President who took his seat under as trying circum stances us President Cleveland did on the 4th of March, 1886. The Demo cratic party had been out of power for nearly a quarter of a century. Of course there were many Democrats who thought that when we got a Democratic administration every Democrat in the land ought to have a good office. Of course there were others who wanted no office, but had their peculiar notions as to bow the government should bo conducted, and to meet and satisfy tlie wishes of the people, those who elected him President of the United States, that man Cleveland had the hardest task that ever was encountered by a Presi dent. And how has he performed that task? The people’s answer to that question is found in the fact that ufter three years and a half of his administration, tlie Democratic convention at St. Louis renominated him by a unanimous vote. Thutnom- iuntion has been ratified by tlie De mocracy of the whole country, from Maine to Mexico, with the same ac cord and unanimity. Now, my friends, let me toll you that no second rate man was ever renominated for tho Presidency of tho United States by a unanimous vote; and the fact that Mr. Cleveland lias so conducted himself that his ad ministration Jms been so cleanly, so upright, so honest, so patriotic that the whole Democratic party, from one end of the republic to the other, said, “Let us give him another term, he has done well witli the trust that has been confided in him. Let us take him again, for wo know lie will do well in another term.” [Great ap plause.] Let me say once more, no dishonest man, no second rate man, nobody but a gi’eat man, nobody but an up right, industrious, courageous man, ever yet was honored in this way, and, therefore, in answer to what is said against President Cleveland, is "Be hold, the American people have spoken in his favor.” [Applause.] The weather was raw, and Judge Thurman was interrupted by fits of coughing, so he cut his speech short after a brief reference to tho tariff How two Men of Gilliam, Mo., Drew $5,000. Two gentlemen living in Gilliam., Marshall, Co., Mo., have reaped the reyard of investments in The Louis- ana State Lottery. The prize drawn here in the Louisiunu State Lot tery was $5,000, and was drawn, by a ticket held jointly between E. J. Dunlap, tlie druggist, and Mr. James Wooldridge who is in tho store of W. H. Land At Sou. They received the cash through the Citizens Stock Bank last Satr i-day.—Marshall [Mo.] Pro gress, Sept 1. Washington, Oct. 15, 1888. Editors Union Rkcorukr: Chairman llurniim, of the democrat ic national committee, spent Satur day in this city, In consultation with prominent democrats. He reports tho outlook as very cheer ing. The republican tariff bill puts coal on the free list. Such a howl has been raised by the coal Barons that the republican Senators are claiming that it was all a mistake of tlie prin ter, and that they intended to raise tlie tariff on coal instead of putting it on tlie free list. The House having finished its work, is now waiting to see what tho Seuhte proposes to do. Neither House has a quorum, und those in a position to know, are confidently predicting an adjournment beforo the 25th Inst. They might as well have adjourned a month ago, for all that has been ac complished. Both Houses have passed a bill ap propriating $50,000 to carry out the provisions of the Chinese exclusion bill. Senator Gorman has gone to New York to remain at the headquarters of the national committee until after the election. This is in accordance with tlie wishes of Mr. Cleveland and Chairman Brice. Great interest is being manifested in the campaign by the various dem ocratic state associations iu this city. Tho New York association will send 2,600 voters to that state. The largest delegation of Indians that ever visited Washington, are now here, and they are attracting a great deal of attention. The delega tion consists of 60 Sioux Chiefs. They are here for the purpose of conferring with the Interior department in rela tion to the proposed treaty, by which they are to sell to the Govern ment 11,000,000 acres of land, about half their reservation. They will call on the President this week. Judge Thurman left for home Fri day evening. While here he spent several days with the President at Oak View. After the 4th of March tlie old Roman will again take up his residence in Washington. Simon Sterne, a prominent lawyer of New Y r ork, and a personal friend of the President, is in this city to argue a case before tlie Supreme Court. He is very confident of the election of Cleveland and Thurman, and Hays that the democratic plurality in the state of New York will bo over 20,000. The report of Win. D. H. Washing ton, United States Consular Agent at London, Ontario, to tho State Department has created quite a stir among the high protection republicans. Mr. Washington’s report states that Oliver chilled plows, made at South Bend, Indiana, are sold in Canada at $10 each wholesale and $12 each retail, while in tho United States they cost $14 each wholesale, and $10 each retail. Simi lar discrimination is shown against tlie United States farmer in regard to the Syracuse and the South Bend plows. These figures are remarkable because American plows entering Canada have to pay a duty of 35 per cent ad valorem. One of Walter A. Wood’s American self-binding reapers, which costs in the United States from $150 to $170, can be bougtit iu Caua- for $118. Smaller agricultural tools, such asspades, shovels and forks, after paying from 35 to 75 per cent ad valo rem, are sold in Canada as cheap or cheaper than in this country. These figures are calculated to set the American farmer to thinking about tlie alleged benefit lie receives from a high protective tariff. The high tariff keeps out foreign implements, and enables tho manufacturers of the United States to make their own prices, but in Canada they have to compete with foreign manufacturers, hence the lower prices there. The House was in session only two days last week, and is not likely to put in any more this week. In fact, there is nothing for it to do except 11 pass a resolution to adjourn, but as that would help to pull tlie republi can Semite out of the hole into which it lias gotten, the House seems to be In no hurry about it. Chief Justice Fuller daring his first week, made a marked impression on the large number of distinguished lawyers In attendance upon the ses sions of the Sup.erne Go Art, by his dignified bearing and manners. Georgia Agricultural Experiment. Station. ANNOUNrKMKNT BY W. L. JONKS, On the 18th of February, 1888, The Agricultural Experiment Station was established by the board of trus tees of tlie University of Georgia, as a department of the Stato College of Agriculture and Mechanic Arts, in ac cordance with tlie provisions of t.he act of Congress approved March 2,1837, and known ns tlie Hutch Act. The assent of the State of Georgia to the provisions of the Act was made by tho Governor of the State, authority to do so having been given by a sup plementary Act of Congress passed June, 1888, aud tlie University of Georgia was designated by him us the rocipient of the funds appropriated by Congress under tlie provisions of said Act. Witli tlie funds appropri ated for the first fiscal year, ending June 30th, 1888, buildings belonging to the University have been remodel ed and fitted for the work of the Sta tion: ample laboratories and work ing rooms have been provided ; plant house, dairy, cattle stalls and silos built. In addition a splendid equip ment of chemical apparatus, ineteor- logioal instruments, microscopes, pho tographic outfit, and a large working or reference library has been procur ed. A farm of sixty-five aires, with building, work stock and tools (lying just without tlie corporate limits of tlie city of Athens) lias been given to tlie Station by the Trustees of tlie University. A majority of the work ing staff of the Station has been ap pointed, others soon will bo, and the Station is ready to begin the work re quired by tlie laws under which it was established. Attention will be given first to problems of most pressing, practical importance to the fanners, fruit growers, dairymen and stock men of the State. Tlie Station in vites suggestions from those interest ed In its work. It desires to learn the points on which light is most urgent ly needed. The Station was estab lished for the benefit of those engaged in rural pursuits, and they have tlie right to apply to tlie Station for any assistance that comes within its legit- mate province. Tlie results of the in vestigations made by tlie Station will be published and distributed free of cost, and become the common pro perty of all. The Station will have facilities for analyzing fertilizers, cairv products and stock food ; for studying ttie dis eases of£nseful plants; for investiga ting the depredations of insects and the means of combatting them ; and for testing the purity anil germi nating power of seeds sold in the mar kets. It will <io such work for the citizens of Georgia free o( charge ; provided 1st. The results obtained are of In terest and of use to tlie public, and the Station is free to publish them if it so desires. 2nd. Samples sent are taken ac cording to directions of the Station, and freight prepuid, Tlie Station cannot undertake pri vate work, and can make no examina tions the results of which it cannot use as its discretion for tho public good. » Tlie Station will publish an annual report, and issue bulletins quarterly or oftener; and these will be mailed regularly, free of charge to any citi. zen of tho State who requests it. Ail communications, samples, &c., should biyuldressed to tlie Georgia Ag ricultural Experiment Station, Athens, Ga. In addition to the Central S'ation located at Athens ihere will be six subsidiary culture stations established in different parts of tlie State; refer ence being had in their location to lo cal peculiarities of soil and climate.
