Col. A. J. McEvoy arrived in San-
dersville Saturday at noon, and has
been out at the surveying party’s
camp, about a mile and a half from
town, conferring with the engineers.
He will leave to day for Macon. The
Progress was honored yesterday by a
pleasant call from him. The Colonel
is enthusiastic over the futnre of the
Middle Georgia and Atlantic railroad,
and by a conversation with him all
doubts as to whether or not the road
will be built are dispelled.—Sanders

T. Thomas Fortune, the prominent
■ tgro journalist and agitator, went
.nto a saloon in New York, last week,
to gets glass of beer, which was re
fused on the ground that lie was a
colored man. He insisted upon his
rights and was turned over to a po
liceman, who took him to the station
bouse, where he was locked up. The
New York correspondent of the Phil-
adelphia Ledger says: “Without in
tending to comment on the merits
of this individual case, it may be said
that it is next to impossible for col
ored people, however educated or
well-dressed, to secure accommoda
tion or attendance in many of the ho
tels and restaurants of New York V
The Present Status.
As to the Governorship there are
but two avowed candidates for the
nomination—Hon. W. J. NortheD
and Hon. Thos. Hardeman. The ret-
iracy of Col. Livingston makes the Al
liance men of Georgia almost solid for
Mr. Northern Other names have been
mentioned in this connection, promi
nently Hon. J. C. C. Black of Augus
ta, but he has most positively de
clined the honor, and has said he
would not aspire to any political of
fice under the State or Federal Gov
ernments. As to the "outlook" to
day, there is no question about the
race—it will be a straight heat be
tween Hon. W. J. Northen and Hon.
Thos. Hardeman, and with the major
ity rule governing, one ballot will de
cide the issue—and that ballot, in our
opinion, will be in favor of Hon. W.
J. Northen as the next Democratic
nominee for Governor of Georgia.
Kansas City Drill.
The Constitution of last Friday had
a lengthy and detailed account of the
Atlanta Rifles and the graud viotory
won by that company in the great in
ter-state military contest at Kansus
City last week. In speaking of sever
al of the best drilled men in the Rifles,
it thus mentions the most important
man in a military company—1st ser
geant—and on this occasion that man
was formerly a member of the cadets
of the Middle Ga. M. & A. College.:
The Constitution says:
Acting First Sergeant George Craw
ford enjoys a wide reputation as a
military man. He has been a valua
ble member of several of the crack
companies of the State, being an offl-
•er in t|)e Milledgeville Cadets at the
time that company made its former
record in Macon, Ga.
Sergeant Crawford acted for Ser
geant Hightower at a recent Jackson
ville drill. He is a private in the Ri
fles, but holds the rank of first Ser
geant in the Grady Cadets.
He graduated from Milledgeville as
a cadet captain, and for some time
was second lieutenant and first Ser
geant in the Gate City Guard.
He Will Ban.
The Macon News of Friday made a
formal announcement of Col. Tom
Hardeman’s candidacy for the nom
ination foglGovernor before the next
Democratic state convention. The
“Old War Horse of Bibb’’ is fairly in
the field. He has many friends all
over the State who will stick to him
as close as a brother.
When interviewed, Col. Hardeman
■aid:
“To comply ‘with the wish of a
oounty whioh has honored me with its
support unsolicited, together with
that of numerous friends throughout
the state, I have consented to make
the race, and I’m going to do my
best."
Sunday Papers.
The Sunday newspapers are receiv
ing hard licks by way of condemna
tlon from various religions bodies.
Can the Sunday papers be issued
without working on Sunday? If not,
Is it right to work on Sunday?.—For
syth Advertiser.
The Union-Recorder disapproves
of all Sunday work not absolutely
necessary. But it is strange that
many people do not understand the
fact that- the Sunday papers are is
sued Saturday night, and all hands
rest on Sunday. It is your daily
Monday morning paper that is to be
blatt ed. All day Sunday, editors,
proof-readers, compositors are at work
to get out Monday's paper, and even
the “Devil" comes in for his share of
the blame. Put the blame where it
properly belongs. It is Sunday read
ers who are to blame, not Sunday-
day papers.
Senators Reagan of Texas, aged
75, weight 250 pounds, aud Senator
Stewart of Nevada aged 70, with
hair and beard as white as snow, had
a regular fist fight in the marble room
of the Senate, June 12th. It was
about an appointment.
A Washington telegram of the 13tli.
■ays:
Reagan’s arm shot out for Stewart’s
eye, but his arm was short, and he
missed Stewart by a foot. Before
Stewart could retaliate the horrified
bystanders interfered and the old gen
tlemen were led to sofas in opposite
ends of the room and calmed down.
Later in the afternoon Mr. Stewart
called on Mr. Reagan and apologize^
for his remarks, hut Mr. Reagan
haughtily declined to speak to him,—
A few hours later Senator Hearst
managed to make them shake iiands.
Mr. Editor, whilst the farmers are
thoroughly in earnest in the Alliance
cause, and 'tis well that they should
be, let us not forget that there is an
alliance which is more praiseworthy,
more glorious than any other alliance.
This alliance is the home circle; an al
liance of peace and an alliance of no
ble words and noble acts, where each
and every member of the family by
bis industry and economy, liis acts of
justice and honor, words of Christian
cheer, words exemplified by works
that would elevate and make better
hudian life. Xli these make au al
liance that will build up the homes of
the country, guide the routh along
toe paths of morality ana integrity,
instead of corrupting them by words
of impurity and acts of lawlessness,
and make homes of happiness and
plenty, of comfort and contentment.—
Uivis in Monroe Advertiser.
The convention of the Mutual Life
and Accident Underwriters, now in
session in New York, will take some
action to secure federal supervision
of insurance.
The aim of insurance men for some
years has been to obtain uniform laws
to govern insurance in the various
states, but it seems quite improbable,
if not almost impossible, that such a
result will be attained on account of
the opposition and competition of
the different interests in insurance in
most of the states.—Savannah News,
COL. TOM HARDEMAN'S LETTER Th* Tenacity of Nat Grate.
Calls for the carefnl reading of all
thoughtful Georgians. That perilous
times, threatening the horrors of
reconstruction, are imminent again,
is recognized on every hand. The
ablest Democrats at the forefront
have signalled the danger in no un
certain tones. How shall we escape?
is the momentous question of the
hour. The wisest cannot auswer with
satisfaction. The flippant and
thoughtless can answer of coarse, as
usual, land commend their counsel,
with a boldness born of ignorance.
Whilst the gathering portents indi
cate no distinct remedy, they do warn
us to vigilance. Our beloved South
claims the self-saoriflcing devotion of
her sons. These are no times for sel
fish ambition or partizaa favoritism
Wisdom should be at the helm. The
exigencies that will probably arise
within the next two years, requires
the best statesmanship the State can
command. The substitution of sel
fish expedients for principles of truth,
promises only evil to our section.
Geographical sectionalism is no more
monstrous than partizan sectionalism.
Sectionalism in the Union, than sec
tionalism in tiie Georgia Democracy.
The entire party -need to lock
shields for the safety of our land, and
not to disintegrate by senseless and
unjust exclusion. The true worth
of the Alliance will not ostracize other
Democrats, else it becomes at once
the enemy to the Demororacy and the
state. It was a broad man of affairs,
who lead our hosts out of similar
perils in 1872, and the same noble
Tom Hardeman is peerless to repeat
the history in 1891.

A Pio Nic at Bethel.
A DAY PLEASANTLY SPENT IN A PROS
PEROUS NEIGHBORHOOD. THE CROP
PROSPECT THE BEST IN TEARS.
We had the pleasure of attending a
picnio at Bethel near Merriwether
laBt Saturday. This neighborhood has
always been noted for its big-hearted
men and the noble qualities of its fair
women.
On the way from this city we pass
ed the lands of some of the best farm
ers in Middle Georgia. The corn
with its verdant blades wafted by the
breeze, and the cotton, which was in
every respect well worked, showed
that the tillers of t he soil had not been
negligent of their duty while God
had blessed them with good seasons.
We arrived at our destination about
10 o’clock and found quite a crowd
had already gathered on the grounds.
After shaking hands with our friends
we went in to have & good time and
right royally did we succeed. We
met several farmers of that neighbor
hood and also several from Putnam
county. They were in every case
much elated over the present crop
prospects. They said if nothing hap
pened that the yield this year would
far exceed that of many years past.
In the forenoon the hours were
spent pleasantly until 12$ o'clock
when dinner was announced. The
table was loaded with good things;
such a feast it has rarely been our
good luck to enjoy. In the afternoon
time swiftly flew by. We found that
the hour for our departure had arriy
ed. We left the good people of that
community with much regret.
They havefa splendid school, pre
sided over by Miss Claude Middle-
brooks. This school closes Friday,
after a six months well attended term.
We wish the people of this neigh
borhood. one and all, a long, prosper
ous and happy life.
Hold Fast. Boys.
Advance,
Hold on to your tongue when you
are just ready to swear, lie, or speak
harshly, or use an improper word.
Hold on to your hand when you
are about to push, strike, scratch,
steal, or do any improper act.
Hold on to your foot when you are
on the point of kicking, running off
from study, or pursuing the path of
error, shame or crime.
Hold on to your temper when you
are angry, excited, or imposed upon,
or others are angry with you.
Hold on to your heart when evil as
sociates seek your company, and in
vite you to join in their mirth, games,
and revelry.
Tiie Augusta Chronicle proposes
that the Macon Cadets and Atlanta
Rifles meet at the Augusta encamp
ment this week and contest for the
championship of the State.
The Chronicle suggests that Atlanta
place a purse of one thousand dollars
on the Rifles, and Macon $1,000
on the Cadets,, and that Augusta
furnish the grounds and judges and
audience, and add five hundred dol
lars, making a parse of $2,500 to be
drilled for.
There is a good deal of discussion
going on just now as to the genuine
ness of the frequent alleged cases of
hydrophobia. An exchange takes the
following sensible view of the ques
tion: “There may be no such thing
as hydrophobia, but there is some
thing unpleasant in the consequences
that follow the bites of certain dogs.
Let the surplus dogs be killed off.
About ninety- nine in every hundred
dogs are surplus."
A gentleman in Alexandria, Egypt,
offers to sell to the directors of the
World’s fair in Chicago for $60,000 a
sarcophagus containing the dust of
Cleopatra. This wouldn’t be exor
bitant perhaps for a genuine live
“Sorceress of the Nile," but is pretty
steep for a handful of dust in a weath
er-beaten coffin.

A gentleman who has had some ex
perience in trying to kill nut grass,
gives it as his opinion that the only
way to get rid of it is to move away
from it. “Why,” he said, “I found
a little patch in my garden. I dug
it up, took it in the yard, burnt it and
made lye out of the ashes, and then
made soap out of the lye, and the
blame grasB came up in the soap."—

A Federal Election Law.
If the federal election bill which
the republicans are now preparing
becomes a law it will be about im
possible to wrest the control of the
government from (he Republican par
ty. That party will have almost ab
solute coutrol of the elections, and by
means of the returning boards will
elect the President and a majority of
the House of Representatives. The
returns in the south will be held
back under one pertext and a-
nother until the republican man
agers know how many more electors
they need to control the electoral col
lege, or how many members they re
quire to give them a majority in the
House, and the returning boards will
furnish the necessary number.
It is evident that the proposed elec
tion bill is full of danger to the peace
of the country, The people wifi not
quietly submit to being robbed of
tneir rights. They elected Mr. Tilden
President in 1876, but the returning
boards in the south made it possible
for Mr. Hayes to become President.
Another outrage like that would not
be so easily settled as that one was.—

Col. Northern Goes it Alone.
— - t
From the Birmingham Age-Herald.
The determination of Colonel Liv
ingston, of Georgia, to be & candidate
for congresman instead of making the
gubernatorial race very much simpli
fies politics in our neighboring state.
Colonel Livingston had never an
nounced himself as a candidate for
governor, but the close canvass he
has beep making of the state led to
the impression that he would do so,
and such was, no donbt, at one time,
his intention. His recent trip to Wash
ington and the speech he made before
the committee there on his pet sub-
treasury protect seeius to have inclin
ed him to believe that his proper place
is in the national legislature.
His withdrawal from the gubernat
orial contest, or rather his failure to
enter it, leaves Colonel Northern in
sole posession of the field. Other can-!
dictates will probably crop out. Some
of the Georgia papers seem to think
this will be the case, and it would be
something of a miracle if any man
should be allowed a walk over. Bat
Colonel Northen Is a farmer and an
alliance man, and this seems to be
farmers’ year over in Georgia.
The latest discovery at Hillman is
a spring whicli cures any kind of
nausea, and most all kinds of sickness
iu the middle regions of the human
body. Its cures are pronounced re
markable and immediate. All that a
nauseated person lias to do is to drink
a small glassful of this spring water
and the sickness disappears almost
instantly, as if by magic. Several
cures of this nature are reported, and
the spriug is creating as big a furor as
the electric shaft several years ago,
and is calling new attention to that
wonderful neighborhood. The new
spring is located near tiie electric
well, and a company is already ne
gotiating for the property and to
market the water. If its magical
properties can be transported it will
sell in all directions. A hotel is also
projected arid several well known
Augusta citizens and capitalists are
interested iu the investigation and
development of this wonderful spring.
Washington, D. C., June 10.—A
good Btory is published to-day at the
expense of Congressman Stockbridge,
a republican member from one of the
Baltimore Cit£ districts. It seems
that he was favorably impresesd with
n tariff speech, made by Mr. Gear, of
Iowa, and ordered 10,000 copies from
!lie government printing office for dis
tribution among liis constituents. By
a mistake on the part of the mailing
clerks 10,000 of Mr. Crisp’s recent an
ti-tarill speech were inserted in the
wrappers witli Mr. Stockbridge’s
frank, and his district was flooded
with them. Stockbridge is a journa

Raynor in a district having* 7,000
democratic majority. Judge Crisp

day,—Cor. Atlanta Journal.

The hero of the graduating class at

medal. •
He comes out at the front door,
brightfaced and happy. He comes
out for no particular reason, save
that he wants to be moving about.
He is full of physical action and must
get some of it out of him before bed
time or he wou’t be fit to sleep. He
doesn’t know this with his head, but
his body knows it; for after ail the
body does a good deal of its own
thinking; independently of what we
call consciousness. He stands on
the step and looks up and down the
street.
He doesn’t know what he is looking
for. Indeed, he is not looking for
anything. He just looks with a sort
of undefined hope that be will see
something suggestive to him of what
to dp. He jumps down the steps aud
goes to the gate, hangs on it a mo
ment, makes a few sounds with his
voice such as nobody but a boy can
make, and no person else would make
if he could.
The sounda don’t mean anything.
He mikes them because—well because
he is a boy. As if he had suddenly
thought of something to do, he bangs
the gate open and rashes down the
middle of the street, yelling like a
yonug Indian. But he has not
thought of something to do. He has
simply done that because he couldn't
think of anything to do, and must do
something.
Then lie picks up a stone and fires

do so. For a few seconds be stands
and looks up into a tree at nothing.
Then he breaks iuto a ran again, and
suddenly sits down on a curb-stone
as if lie had accomplished something

A Hard 8et to Flay.
From the Sa van fish Times.
The farmers of Georgia are as
bright a set of men as ever ran a
plow or stood in a furrow. And, in
spite of general opinion, they are
more successful than even their West
ern brethren, of reputed skill in their
calling. This was established in the
tour of the West made by the farmers
and editors last fall. In politics they
are a tremendous force and they have
a prevailing way about them. It is
then of great importance to the pub
lic whom they favor for office and
what law they advocate the passage
of. Tiie men who assume to lead them,
however, are by no means uniformly
successful, and their failure may be
imputed to the very strength of the
element they appeal to. It is true,
that these aspiring leaders are often
the rankest demagogues, who make
the mistake of attempting to dupe a
class of men who have more wisdom
than they are always credited with.
The Enumerator All Right.
From the New York Herald*
The census enumerators were to be
brutal and insolent inquisitors, invad
ing the privacy of home life, and rais
ing hob generally—so we were told.
They have, however gone about their
work in a quiet gentlemanly way,
and thus far accomplished their pur
pose without injury to anybody’s feel
ings. A bad thunder storm was pre
dicted, but it turned out to be only
sheet lightning.
Hard on the Profeth.
Editors, editorial writers and re
porters are hereafter to be exempt
from jury duty in New York. It is
safe to say that the number of profess

forthwith.—Boston (Ind.) Post.
