We once knew a woman who had
nine Tripletts in succession. Re

Georgia gave Polk, Democratic
candidate for president in 1814, a
majority of 2,071. In 1848 she gave
Taylor, Whig, a majority of 2,742.
These are the smallest majorities I
the State ever cast for presidential'
candidates.
In three weeks the secTetery of I
the Treasury has bought $10,500,-1
000 of bonds at a cost in premium
of $2,000,000. As the payment of
$3,500,000 in interest was saved by
the purchase, this was not bad
financiering.

Some of Bartow county’s public

also an ex-congressman, wants to
go to the State senate.
Dade county has the naming of j

The Democratic convention of
Tennessee at Nashville, after pro--
tracting an exciting contest, re-'
nominated Gov. Taylor for govern-|

The opposition to him was so strong

order to secure harmony, that Bob

Yesterday, Today and To
morrow.
What is the past? A memory.
What is the present? A reality.
And what is the future? An un
certainty.
Yesterday—last week—last year
—they have gone! Yesterday was
such a day as will never be again;
last week was such a week as no
one will know any more, and last
year’s events will never occur again.
Out of darkness and eternity they
were born, and into eternity and
darkness, lighted only by fitful
memory, they forever sank again.
The opportunities they held forth
will never be offered again. Those
that were taken advantage of are
pleasant memories, but those that
were heedlesly spurned are dregs,
the bitterness of which yet remains.
This should teach every one the
value of the present, not only for
its own sake, but for the sake of
the future also. For there is noth
ing more sure than this law of mor
al connection and retribution. The
moral impulses and consequences
of today bear the impress of the
acts of yesterday and communi
cates its influence upon the acts of
tomorrow. The seed of every pleas
ui able emotion of today was sown
yesterday, and the good done today
will bear fruit tomorrow. Every
act of life is the result of past
training and influences, and so will
the future be. Let no one imagine
for a moment that it can ever be
unimportant whether they yield to
this or that sinful passion, or, as it
may seem at the time, mere indulg
ance. Let no one imagine that the
future will drown the sinful oi in
discreet acts of the present, or try
to quiet conscience by the thought
that at the worst the memories of
folly will be out lived, or that
amends can be made by better con
: duct. It is true it can be said that
I many great men have sown “wild
I oats” and afterward appeared to
I forget it in living exemplary lives
'in happiness and content. But this
is a delusion, for it is a truth that
I every day verifies that those who
sow “wild oats” will, in some way
or other, reap a bitter harvest.
Therefore every one should re
member the bearing of the present
! upon the future and as they wish i
I the future to be so live today. All i
i is summed up from this point. The |
future and eternal will take their!
! character from the present and >
temporal. “He that is unjust, let!
him be unjust still: and he that is
filthy, let him be filthy still: and he j
that is righteous, let him be right
eons still.” The chain runs on in un-!
broken continuity. The shadow of
death may cover from sight, but I
, when the light of another world
breaks in, life will be found in the
order it was here. Make the pres
r ent life, therefore, a preparation
for the future life, both here and
hereafter, by seeking ditties, studies
works and enjoyments which will
■ blossom in happiness and beauty
■ tomorrow and bring good fruit
throughout, eterity.
Mormonism in G-eorgia.
In Richmond county the Mormons
are making considerable progress.
There are 150 at one place in that '
! county who propose organizing as a j
! local congregation. The elders have I
I
I been preaching in the homes of the I
I members, but they intend now to !
build a church for regular services. I
A household once committed to the
tenets of their faith, the elders be
gin their pastoral work in the fam
-1 i ily, and it is said they sec visions
■ and have spiritual communications
| by authority of which they take
1 • privileges not sanctioned by the
! lajvs of this State or country. In
deed, one of the elders recently
claimed to have received a commu
nication from the unseen world com
manding him to take up the mar
riage relation with three sisters,!
who have joined the band. To such
an extent has the matter gone that!
great alarm is felt, and a number!
of ministers of various denomina-!
tions have united in addressing the !
following card to their brethren and !
the people generally:
“At Kollock Street Baptist church ,
last Thursday half a dozen were
! turned out for joining the Mormons, j
They go up to Grovetown to bap-!
! ti.rn theirdeluded converts, and more
j than fifty have been baptized there •
! from this city (Augusta). When a
| pret ended religious set of tramps
.' are invading the sacred precincts of
! our churches, and the quiet family |
! circles of the innocent and unsus- I
pe Ting laboring classes, religious'
! toleration ceases to be a virtue. We '
call upon our min sters to exposei
the sophistry and fraud of these
fa'if teachers, an 1 our citizens, old
! and young, of all classes and de-;
nominations, to stamp out this foul
bloA «D<>n our civilization.”
A Lawful Robbery.
During or directly after the war
the congress, in seeking to raise
funds to pay the enormous indebt
ness incurred in prosecuting the
civil war, levied a tax upon cotton.
Before the act was discovered to be
unconstitutional, the government
collected off the Southern cotton
planters the sum of $60,000,000.
The supreme court has since held
that congress had no right to col
lect this tax, and that it was done
in violation of the constitution. The
highest tribunal having thus de
clared, it follows that the govern
ment has in its treasury $60,000,-
000 belonging to the Southern
farmers that it ought in justice to
refund.
Instead of congress appropriat
ing immense sums for rivers and
harbors and voting hundred of mil
lions in pensioning Federal sol
diers, it should pass the bill author
izing the return of this $60,000,000
of which a Republican congress
robbed the South.
How can Southern congressmen
log roll through corrupt river and
harbor appropriations, while their
constituents, who lost all in the
war, were robbed of the fruits of a
large portion of their labor since
the war, and not make efforts to
effect a restitution? It is a lamen
table fact that the United States
retains money’ unlawfully collect-
ed, without constitutional warrant,
from a people who have without
this borne grievous burdens during
the past thirty years.
Indications multiply’ that the
Republicans in time will make ef
forts to keep the colored people
from voting. Many of the colored
people are voting and acting with
the Democrats, and in consequence
many’ Republicans express them
selves as sorry’ they were ever al
lowed to vote.
The present average rate of the
tariff on dutiable goods Is 47 : 10 pr
! cent. The Mills bill would leave it
40 pr cent. The Mills bill proposes
to cut off, in round numbers, $78,-
000,000 of the surplus revenue. Os
this amount $54,000,000 is taken
from the tariff and $24,000,000 from
: the internal taxes on tobacco. It
! adds to the free list flax, hemp, jute,
j salt, tin plate, wool and a few other
| articles.
! The Senate Judiciary' Committee'
i allowed the Supreme Court to nd
! journ last week until the Ist of Oc
j tober without having taken any’ ac
! tion whatever on the appointment
of Mr. Fuller to the Chief-Justice-
! ship. All the members of the Sen
te have received copies of a pam
phlet giving Mr. Fuller’s war record
—or, rather, peace record—and
winding up with a hysterical protest
against the elevation of a “Copper
head” to the Supreme bench.
We addressed letters to each of
the candidates for congress from
this district last week, asking them
ito express their views upon the
tariff issue. Those, who have views
and are afraid to express them are
unworthy’ to represent the “bloody’
seventh,” and those who have none
at all are not fit to represent any
thing. We hope they’ will accept
j this opportunity to “come out of.
! the woods,” and if they’ do, our
■ readers will be made aware of it.
The Atlanta Journal pleads for
. j harmony’ in the Democratic party,
. ’ and anticipating opposition to Sen
. ■ ator Colquit’s re-election to the

; ! those who oppose him will be crea
.; ting dissension. This is nonsense.
There are plenty’ of better men in
. Georgia than Colquitt, and the leg
islature would be doing the correct;
! thing to elect one of them. The
idea that those who favor some one
other than Colquitt are by so doing
; creating dissension in the Demo-
!
cratic party’ is rediculous.

Centennial of a Great Church.
• One hundred years ago the Pres
: byterian church was organized in
this country. This week the cele-
■ bration of its centennial was held
. in Philadelphia, the strongest Pres-
• byterian city in the United States.
; The first General Assembly of
i the Presbyterian church met in
1788. It represented sixteen Prcs-
l byteries, four hundred and ninety
■ churches and seventeen ministers.
- Today the Presbyterian church in
> the United States has three hun
. dred and eighty nine Presbyteries,
. eleven thousand churches and
. eight thousand ministers.
i No other Protestant church re-
> quires such thorough preparation
of its ministers and the average in-
. telligence of its membership is cor
[ respondingly high. While in those
. things it is nobly progressive it is
. of all churches the most conserva
. live in matters of faith. It clings
) devotedly’ to the old standard of
; orthodoxy and is the great bulwark
against the tendency of the times
i toward rationalism. The spirit of
I the Scotch dissenters still survives
• and stubbornly resists all efforts to
• modify or amend the faith and
. tenets which governed the church
; in days gone by. It is a strong
, church, a grand church, and can
look back on the one hundred years
i of its existance in the land of the
free and view a wonderful record of!
progress.
, The General Assembly discussed
; several questions of doctrine and
considered the relations of the
Northern and Southern divisions of
the church. The proceedings, when i
known, will show 'what progress, if
any, has been made in the direction I
of organic union of those great I
branches of the same church which, I
holding the same faith, cherishing
the same traditions and practicing
the same forms of church govern
ment, have long been dissevered by
, sectional lines and differences
. which do not affect the essence of
their faith. That the outcome of
the works of the Assembly may be
for good and result in increased
• energy in advancing the cause
which alone promises good tempor
arily’ and for futurity’, is the hope
of all.

The great debate on the tariff
was closed last Saturday’ in a speech
by Speaker Carlisle, which is pro
nounced the ablest yet delivered
upon the subject.
Gov. Gordon and Evan P. How
ell have both recently delivered
speeches in Cartersville upon the

money to build a furnace.
The end of the famous Maxwell
case draws nigh. The federal Su

Capt. John W. Turner has a
- himself as a candidate for
the legislature from Floyd county.
If elected be pledges himself to <lo
all he can to have the times of;
holding the superior court of that!
county’ changed back to January
and July’, the old schedule.
Dr. Felton is a candidate for I h i
legislature from Bartow, and he is
uncompromisingly in favor of leas
ing the State road, and opposed to
its sale. If the road could be leased
for what it is worth, this would do,
but it is doubtful if it can be done.
It would be better to sell the road
than to allow private individuals tn
manipulate it to their own gain,
regardless of the rights of the peo
ple. The income, clear of expenses
of the road is over $600,000 a year
and if it could be leased for’ some
thing like that sum it would do.

CON&REBSIONAL CANDIDATES.
Letters from Judge Branham and
Capt. Reece-One has notflme to
Tell His Views, and the
Other Has.
Last week we addressed a letter to
each of the candidates for congress
from the seventh district, to-wit:
Capt. J. 11. Reece, Judge Branham,
Hon J. C. Clements, Col. C. D. Phil
lips, and Col. J. E. Shumate, asking
them to express their views upon
the tariff. We have received two
responses, which will be found be
low. The interview in the Tribune
referred toby Judge Branham con
tains no statement of his views upon
the tariff. Perhaps, as the Judge
says, he has not time to give them
now. If he has not the time to give
his views, perhaps the people will
think he has not the time to spare
to goto congress. But perhaps lie
will have more time soon. The letter
of Capt. Reece speaks for itself. It
is manly and fearless, and contains
sound Democratic doctrine.

Mb. Jos. W.CainSummerville, Ga.,
Dear Sir- Your favor to hand. lam too
busy now to give any extended views
upon the tariff, but I will do so when I
can before the people The Tribune in
an interview procured a brief statement
from me last week, which I presume it
will publish. Yon might copy that.
Yours truly, J. Branham.
Rome, Ga., May 21, 1888.
Mu. Jos. W. Cain: -Dear Sir Your
favor is received in which you suy “The
tariff question is the great issue now be-
I fore the people, and as you are a candi
j date tor congress I deem it not inappre -
priateto ask of you an expression of your ■
views upon this important subject.” I I
agree with you t hat it is an important
subject, and as I ha ve conscientious con
victions on the subject, ami as I am a ;
candidate, you and all the people have a
right to know them.
1 may be wrong in my views; if so it
is an error of the head and not the heart,
for I desire nothing but the good of my
country and the prosperity of the people.
I am heartily in accord with the views
expressed by the President in his late
message on the tariff and believe it to be
the ablest state paper eniinating from
any Federal Executive since the time of
Thomas Jefferson.
1 am in favor of a tariff only which
brings the greatest good to the greatest
number. And as the expenses oi main
taining the government, paying pen
sions and the public debt must be met
in some way by raising a revenue, I
would reform ami adjust the tariff for
this purpose so as to afford the greatest
protection to our manufacturing indus
tries. I would collect only this necessa
ry tax in such way that our manufactu
ring interests would have the greatest
benefit from it. I am opposed to col
lecting a greater amount of revenue out
of the people than is necessary to run
the government, thereby accumulating
a surplus in thp Treasury to be squan
dered by impracticable schemers and
plunderers. There is a surplus now in
the Treasury of one hundred and forty
million dollars. I believe this ought to
be reduced by taking the tax off of the
necessaries of life and thereby cheapen
the cost of living, and collecting what is
needed to defray the expenses of gov
ernment out of luxuries. I would re
move the tariff on sugar, rice, salt, wool
and coal and many other articles 1 can
not enumerate in this short letter. What
does any agricultural people want with
a protective tariff? Well may the “plow
man homeward plod his weary way”
with a tariff tax on everything he uses
from a pin to a steam engine. He sows
in hope, but when he settles his bills for
I articles he is compelled to have, he reaps
in tears. The masses of the American
people are tired of a tariff protection to
syndicates and trust companies. We
I have liffl'ii under tlie tariff for about a
| quarter of a century and where are tin
great benificial results accruing to the
people? The protected few have pros
pered at the expense and toil of the many
Look around you, Mr. Editor, and you
will see that our people are greatly in
debt; liefraand mortgages an* spread all
over the country, and tho people are
tailing in bonds of iniquity on account of
a high tariff tax on the rieccsitiesof life.
A glance at the early history of our
country will show tha* our ancestors
rebelled at the imposition of an unjust
tax, and shall we, their descendants nn- ;
der a delusive promise of a coming bet
| ter day, sleep on in fancied security un
til the monied power of the country has
bound us hand and foot? Surely twenty
five years of oppression and disastrous
experiment under a protective tariff
ought to convince us that the burdens
on the necessaries of life ought to be re
formed.
| I know that many good mon will dis
sent from the views 1 have thus briefly
stated, but they are my honest convic
| tions. and I am willing to stand or fall
by them in the coming contest. I may
never see the National Capitol I have
only seen the dome of the < 'apitol while
on picket duty as a beardless soldier
boy but I am not afraid to give my
views on any of the great questions the
people are interested in.
Yours resp’t’y, John IL Reece.

powers. It expells every impurity
from the blood, and also gives it
vitality and richness. It creates
an appetite, tones tl-.e digestion, in
vigorates the liver, and gives new
