Millkdgkvillk, Ga., Nov. C, 1894.
For Congress— Blxth District,
C. L. BARTLETT.
Editorial Glimnses and Clippings.
Don’t- stay away from the polls.
A plain duty today is to vote for
Bartlett.
The general assembly met at the
Macon Fair last Saturday.
The congressional election will be
held today all over the United states.
Georgia must, and will, eleot elev*
en democratic Congressmen next
Tuesday. _
At last accounts the Japanese
were making the Chinese “take to
the woods.”
There is a strong probability of a 1
cent rate being allowed for the Dixie
Fair through this week.
The Dixie Interstate Fair closes
next Thursday night. Nothing will
be removed until Friday.
A bill has already been introduced
in the Legislature to hold ull eleo*
tions in the »tate on tiie same day.
It should pass.
Friends of Hon. Martin V. Calvin
have presented that gontlem au's
nome to Gov. Atkinson for school
commissioner. _
The centre of tlie* coal and iron in
dustries is believed by some econo
mists to be siifting from Great
Britain to tbe United States.
The nomination of Mr. Walsh for
the short term and Majir Bacon for
the long term in the U. S. Senate is
very satisfactory to ttie people of
Georgia.
The democratic jiarty has been a
friend to the South when she was in
great need. Your own friend and
your father’s friend forget not. In
gratitude is a shame to maukood.
State School Commissioner Brad-
well has discharged the duties of his
office well and faithfully and the
Union Rkcordkr hopes he will con
tinue to hold his place during the
present administration.
The Georgia Legislature took in
the sights of the Dixie Fair at Macon
last Saturday. One good feature
about this holiday is that it did not
cost the Slate one dollar, as the day
is not to be counted in the fifty days
of the session.
Twenty-six years ago Augustus ().
Bacon and Thomas J. Simmons wer**
partners at law in Macou. During
this week Augustus O. Hacon has
been chosen to represent Ills state in
the United States Senate and Thom
as J. Simmons has been unanimously
elected Judge of tlie supreme court
of Georgia.—Atlanta Constitution.
The effect of populism in Colorado
Rnd Kansas should be a warning to
Georgians not to let that political
cr«7.e get the upper hand ill this state
And in this matter every Individual
democratic voter is interested. A

itv. There should be no shirking of
duty on electiou day.—Savannah

We visited the great fair at Macon
last Wednesday. Milledgeville was
largely represented ou that day and
has beeu every day since. The weath
er was charming and th*re was a
great gathering of people from every
portion of the state. All Die space j
in tiie immense building was occupi- j
ed by attractive exhibits arranged I
with artistic skill. The variety and j
excellence of agricultural products
illustrated the wonderful produc
tiveness of Georgia soil. The most
notable among tlie exhibits was tiie
individual display of Mr. Bass from
an old plantation at Devereaux near
this city, which shows that Die farm
ers of tin's section are not limited to
cotton. The exhibit of stock and
poultry was very fine. The excellent
horses, cows and hogs on exhibition
shows tlint great progress has been
made in stock raising.
Outside attractions, free and oth*
erwise, pretty, daring, naughty, were
immense and stuuuiog. But we can
riot go into detail—that would re
el 11 ire coin 111 us.
The general impression made on
our mind is, that we live in a fayoi*
ed land, in tlie midst of plenty and
that ingratitude is a sad sin with
many people. There was no indica
tion of hard times at tiie fair. The
people were well dressed ami had the
appearance of being well fed and
happy. We were struck witli the
great number ot stout people, es
pecially among tbe ladies. Tiie
petite beauties of ante helium days
have almost disappeared. Changed
conditions have demanded more ac
tivity ou the part of the fair sex and
physical culture in borne duties lias
developed strength, if not beauty.—
A long stride lias been made in lius
iness and material progress since tiie
lamented Gen. Alfred H. Colquitt, as
president of the State Agricultural
Society, refused to allow horse-
r&clng.

Major Bacon lias from the begin*

Czar of Russia Dead.
Alexander III, Emperor of all tiie
Russias, died at Lividia. last Thurs

sfoils and asked that his family
should gather mound him aud spoke
with each member separately, then
he bade all farewell, His body was
escorted to St. Petersburg and the
final ceremonies will be held about
two weeks lienee. His succe sor to
the *hrone is Nicholas II.
Alexander III, who succeeded to
the throne on the murder of his fath
er bv Nihilist conspirators on Marsh
13, 1881, was born March, 10, 1845.
For gome time after his elevation to
the tin one ho seldom appeared in
public, but lived iu the closest re
tirement at Catchina, being in con
stant dread ot the machinations of
the secret societies of socialists. His
corouiitioD took place at Moscow
May 27. 1883. lie married, in 1800,
Mary Feodorovina (formerly Mnrv
Sophia Federica Dagma) daughter
of Christian IX, King of Denmark,
and sister of ttie princess of Wale*
and the King of Greece. The princi
pal concern of the Czar was to put
down nihilism, to develop the mili
tary power of Russia, to organize
her Asiatic and Caucasian proyinoes
and to keep a steady eye on Con*
stantinople.
From the beginning of his reign
periodical attempts upon his life
were made by tiie nihilists. Twice
officers in his own army tried to
shoot him.
The Czar was deeply religious. He
was under tbe influence of such bi
gots as Pobodouoszeff, attorney gen
eral of the Holy Sinod and his group
and persecuted the Jews, Catholics
and German Lutherans in Russia,
without cessation or mercy.
The Czar left five children, the
cro^n prince Nicholas, 27 years of
age, the grand duke George, now
ill in the south of Russia, the grand
dukeses Xenia and Olga, and the
grand duke Michael, a boy in his
teens.

Welshton, Florida, says he cured a

sufferer. Much cures are not unus*
ual with this remedy. In many in
