WATSON ANDBUTLER MEET.
The Popnllat Leaders Confer About Mat
ters Concerning the Campaign.
Atlanta, Sept. 4.—Marion Butler,
chairman of the national committee of
the People’s party, and Thomas E.
Watson, the vice presidential nominee
of the Populists, hed an all day confer
ence here regal ding the notification of
the latter. It was definitely decided
that Mr. Watson would be officially no
tified of his nomination at an early date.
After the conference, Mr. Butler, in an
interview, said:
“The People’s party national com
mittee is exerting every effort to Unite
and solidify the silver vote against Mc-
Kinley and the single gold standard.
To this end we have accepted every prop
osition that was in any way fair and
reasonable, and where such propositions
have not been made we stand ready to
make them and will m ike them in due
time.
“I did not go to St. Louis for Bryan
and Sewall. If I had consulted my per
sonal feelings and the personal feelings
of probably a large part of the People’s
party in North Carolina, I would have
gone there favoring a straight People’s
party ticket. But realizing that the re
sult of this campaign meant more to the
people and to the welfare of our repub
lican institutions than the success of
any party simply «s a party, 1 went to
St. Louis determined to fight for that
course that would most surely advance
the principles of the People’s party and
therefore most certainly defeat the gold
standard candidates and all that they
represent. Therefore, 011 arriving at
St. Louis I at once took the position
that we should nominate Mr. Bryan be
cause he was probably as good a repre
sentative of the people and the prin
ciples for which we contend in this fight
us any other man that wo could nomi
nate; and also because he had already
several million votes outside of the Peo
ple’s party pledged to his support.
“If the second man on the Chicago
ticket had stood for what Mr. Bryan
stands for, then the People’s Party na
tional convention would have nomina
ted the whole ticket by even a larger
majority than it nominated Mr. Bryan.
But, inasmuch as this was not the case,
it was our duty to the country as well
as to ourselves to nominate for the sec
ond place on the ticket a man who rep
resents what Mr. Bryan represents.
This we have done.
“I have never opposed the no
tification of our candidate. This false
impression has no doubt been created
by an interview in which I stated that
the People’s party did not notify its can
didates, Weaver and Field, in 1892, in
the same manner in which the old par
ties have been accustomed to notifying
their candidases —that the manner of
notification was simply a brass band
affair and gave an opportunity to party
managers to make political demonstra
tions.
“There is no clashing between Mr.
Watson and myself. The conference to
day was not held to settle any differ
ences, but simply to confer about gen
i eral matters concerning the campaign.”
1 BUTLER AT HOME AGAIN.
Chairman of the I’opulist National Com
mittee Returns to North Carolina.
Raleigh, Sept. s.—Senator Marion
Butler has returned to North Carolina
I and the Populists are jubilant over the
cordial conference between Tom Wat
son and himself.
Senator Butler has thoroughly fa
miliarized himself with the situation in
Georgia, and will advise the leaders in
that state as to what tactics they had
best adopt. He has compared the con
ditions with the situation in North
Carolina, and it is stated that the Popu
lists will agree to no fusion which will
make them cast their ballots for Sewall.
R has beeu asserted that the Populist
and Democratic chairmen had actually
arranged the matter in North Carolina,
but this is denied. There are those, how
ever, who believe that at the very last
moment fusion will actually be accom
plishad, that is if Senator Butler con
sents to the proposition, as he is the real
head and front of the party in the Tar
Heel state.
As it is now, however, it is said that
the only fusion Senator Butler will
agree to is the Bryan and Watson ticket.
He wishes Sewall withdrawn and will
not for his party to support him.
The situation in this state is growing
interesting. A great fight is brewing
on Senator Pritchard by the Populists.
While the latter are divided on the ques
tion of furion with the Republicans,
those who take the view of Senator
Pritchard appear to be largely in the
majority.
The assert that under
the new election law there will be at
least 25,000 negro votes heretofore never
counted, while the chairman of the state
Republican committee estimated his
strength at 150,000. In the question of
senator the Populists hold the balance
of power.

Owensboro, Ky., Sept. 5. Bryan

Albany Policeman Kills a’Negro.
Albany, Ga., Sept. I.—Policeman J.
G. Barron of this city, while attempt- i
ing to arrest Bush Williams, a negro,
employed by the Columbus Southern
railway, shot and instantly killed the
latter.
Boiler Explosion Kills Three Men.
Edwardsville, Ala., Sept. s.—News ,
has just reached here of the explosion
of-a boiler u ed for the purpose of pump
ing water for a railroad tank, seven
miles west of here, on the Southern '
road. Three men were killed. Their
names were Elsie Black, George Black ■
and Turner.
BENNY WILL NOT ACCEPT.
Senator TH I man Thinks the Ex-President
Will Ignore His • hallenge.
Columbia, S. C., Sept. 3.—Considera
ble interest is being taken in the open
challenge of ex-President Harrison by
Senator Tillman to meet him in joint
debate. Tillman said he suggested that
the debate take place at Harrison’s home
purposely. At the same time he has no
idea that the challenge will l>e accepted-,
notwithstanding the fact that Harrison
has dignified him by specially referring
’0 his name in his New York spec h.
Thus, Tillman says, he cannot say tbid
he can refuse to debate with him.
There were two passages in Harrison’s
speech upon which the challenge was
lamed. One reads thus:
“They denounce iu their platform in
terference by federal authorities iu Id
eal affaire as a violation of the constitu
tion of the United States and asacrimo
against free institutions. Mr. Tillman,
in his speech, approved this declara
tion. It was intended to be in words a (
direct condemnation of Mr. Cleveland
as president of the United States for
using the power of the executive tr
brush out of the way every obstacle to
the free passage of the mail trains of
the United States and the interstate
commerce. And, my friends, when
ever the people approve the choice of a
president who believes he must ask
Governor Altgeld or any other governor
of any other state permission to enforce
the laws of the United States we have
surrendered the victory the boys won
in 1861.”
The other reads this way?
“One of the kindest and most dis- i
criminating critics who ever wrote with
a foreign pen about American affairs,
Mr. Bryce, in his ‘American Common- ;
wealth,’ pointed out this danger that
the constitution did not fix the number
of the supreme court judges, and it was !
possible for a reckless congress and a
reckless exteutive to subordidate and
practically destroy the supreme court by
the process I have just described, and
the Englishman, after speaking of this,
says:
“ ‘What prevents such assaults on the
fundamental law? Nothing but the fear
of the people, whose broad, good sense
and attachment to the principles of the
constitution may be genarally relied on
to condemn such a perversion of its
powers. ’
“Our English friend did not misjudge,
I think, the sound good sense of the
American people when an issue like
this is to be presented. Whatever the
question is, whether Mr. Bryan’s views
or Mr. Tillman’s view of the constitu
tional question shall prevail, or that of
tlie august tribunal appointed to settle
it, the courts are the defenses of the
weak. The rich and powerful have
other resources, but the poor have not.
The highminded, independent judiciary
that will hold to the line on questions i
between wealth and labor, between the ■
rich and the poor, is the defense and se
curity of the defenseless.”
SOUTH CAROLINA POLITICS.
Governor Evans and Liquor Commissioner
Mixson Publish Spicy Cards.
Columbia, S. U., Sept. 7.—South Caro
lina has a sensational state scandal on
her hands. Governor Evans has given
to the public a lengthy curd, which ac
cuses Liquor Commissioner Mixson of
various successful deals through which
the commissioner made personal profit.
Governor Evans asserts that Mixon’s
sons received presents from liquor deal
ers, and that he warned Mixson against
this. He also states positively that Mix
son received rebates amounting to thous
ands of dollars. The governor explains
that but for the advice of friends ho
would have given a full statement
sooner.
Commissioner Mixon makes a reply
in which he gives the governor a thor
ough roasting. He reasserts that Evans
said Tillman received rebates and puts
the governor in a thankless attitude to
ward Scruggs.
The two cards have created a pro
found sensation, and it is possible that
a personul difficulty may follow.
A BABY AND A CALF.
A Young Woman Found on an Engine Pilot
With Both In Her Arms.
Gadsden, Ala., Sept. 7.—The engi
neer of the Alabama Great Southern
passenger train No. 2 that left Attalla
at 4:12 a. m.. found that he had a strange
passenger which he had been carrying
for 22 miles.
Near Collinsville the engine struck
a calf, and when the train had been
stopped he found the animal lodged in
the lap of a young woman who was rid
ing upon the cowcatcher and holding iu
her arms a young child. When the cow
catcher struck the calf it threw it upon
the woman’s lap, weighting her down
so that she could not move. When
found she was unconscious and the babe
asleep.
She was rescued from her perilous po
sition by the engineer and fireman and
put off at Collinsville.
The woman was about 25 years of age,
well dressed and good looking. She re
fused to give her name, where she came
from, or where she was going.
Thrown From Their Carriage.
Gadsden, Ala., Sept. 7.—While out
driving with his family the horse driven
by Mr. W. T. Griffin took fright and
ran away, throwing the occupants of
the carriage to the ground. The car- 1
riage was completely demolished. Mrs.
Griffin’s arm was broken and the children
badly frightened. Mr. Griffin and his i
grown daughter escaped unhurt. Mr.
Griffin is a well-to-do sawmill man, wbo |
moved here a few years ago from Geor
gia.
Locomotive Explosion Injures Four Men.
Augusta, Ga., Sept. 7.—Engine No. |
1106 of the Central Railway of Georgia
exploded here. Four men on the engine
at the time were injured. One of them,
Char.es Anderson, a Swedish machinist,
was so badly scalded that it is thought
he cannot recover. The others escaped
with little injury. The engine was
lifted and carried 10 feet from the
tracks. It had just been overhauled
and was On a trial trip.
Columbus Southern Sale Postponed.
Atlanta, Sept. 2.—The sale of the
Columbus Southern railroad, which was
tv take place Sept. 10, has been post
poned. This was done on the request
of some of the bondholders. It is gen
erally supposed that the road will be
bought either for the Southern or by
General Sam Thomas and Mr. Ryan,
and that it will be-merged either with
the Southern or with the CentraL
Ju.lge Stafford Falls Into a Well.
Grantville, Ga., Sept. 3. Judge
John D. Stafford fell headforemost into !
a well in his yard, and the shock and I
bruises were severe enough to cause
death in a few hours. Some hands were
drawing off the well and the judge
reached to move the rope on the wind
lass when the plank on which he rested
his hand gave way.

HAPPENINGS OF THE PAST WEES
Wayne Pays the Penalty of His Crime;
Rate War Again; Seaboard Makes a Big '
Cut, Which Is Promptly Met by Associ
ated Lines—Pastor of the First Baptist
Church; Atlanta, installed.
Atlanta, Sept. 4.—Arthur Hanye,
the murderer of Wll Spinks, was
hanged in the Fulton county jailyard at
12:16 o’clock Friday afternoon. He met
death calmly and died with a prayer on
his lips.
i The crime for which Hanye paid the
death penalty was the killing of his
Will Spinks, last March. The
men were lifelong friends end
In , cnveral years ngOj killed an Italian
who attacked them. One night last
March they were in a Decatur street
saloon, when a quarrel arose over some
trivial matter and Spinks applied a vile
epithet to Hayne. The latter resented
the insult and a scuffle ensued, during
: which Spinks was i tabbed iu the skull
with a knife, from the effects of which
he died a few days later. Hayne claimed
the killing was purely accidental but
was convicted and sentenced to hang.
Au appeal was taken _to the supreme
court and the decision of the lower court
was upheld.
The governor gave the condemned
man a week’s respite in which to pre
i pare for death, and, at the expiration
1 of that time, on the representation that
new evidence had been discovered,
a further respite of two weeks was
granted. The governor considered the
case carefully and decided there was
not sufficient ground to warrant his in
terference and ordered the sentence of
the court carried out. Ou the evening
before the execution a crowd visited
the governor’s mansion and made an
effort to have the sentence commuted td
life imprisonment, but failed.
RATE WAR IS RENEWED.
Seaboard Reduces Charges Thirty-Three
Per Cent—Met by tlie Southern.
Atlanta, Sept. 3.—The Seaboard Air
Line lias reduced freight rates 33 per
cent from Baltimore and Virginia points
into Atlanta. The Southern States Pas
senger association has met this cut with
a cut of 35 per cent. The cut was made
at the executive meeting in New York
and goes into effect on Sept. 5.
This 33 pei- cent cut is
far as the Seaboard is concerned, so its
representatives announce. They say
I this is not war, but is simply a stroke of
j business policy made with no hostile in
tent. It is simply the adoption as a per
manent policy of rates which were first
inaugurated as an experiment.
“The experiment proved to be profit
able to our company and we consider it
to be to the best interests of our prop
erty and our security holders,” said one
of the representatives of the Seaboard.
“We have no war to make on any one.
This is a pacific step in its intent. If
there should boa war others will inau
gurate it— not the Seab iard. We thought
that rates were too high from the east.
Business was light and we thought that
a conservative reduction would stimu
late traffic over our line. We could not
tell whether the move would be profit
able or the reverse until we tried it.”
The new rates on both sides will go
into effect on Saturday, Sept. 5.
Chattahoochee Too Low For ISoats.
Columbus, Ga., Sept. 7.—The Chat
tahoochee river is lower than it has been
in many years, a state of affairs that is
occasioning considerable injury to the
business interests of Columbus. The
immense Chattahoochee valley, with its
thousands of fertile acres, is in a man
ner tributary to Columbus and thus the
river continues one of the city’s princi
pal sources of revenue. There are sev
eral lines of steamers on the river doing
a thriving business, but the present low
[condition has seriously interferred with
'the river business. For the past few
.weeks the steamers have been attempt
ing to make the regular schedule, but
as th’ere were several places in the river
which were really not navigable, this
proved to be a most difficult accomplish
ment. Only one boat is able to get
above Fort Gaines and freight will prob
ably be transferred to railroads at this
point.
Pastor of First Baptist Church Installed.
Atlanta, Sept. 7.—Dr. W. W. Lan
drum entered upon his pastorate of the
First Baptist church Sunday. It was
an auspicious beginning. The minister
was given a magnificent reception and
few times in its existence has the church
keen so crowded as it was when Dr.
Landrum preached his first sermon Sun
day morning from 1 Corinthians HI, 9.
He was formally installed at the night
services, the ministers from the leading
Churches of the city being present.
In a recent letter to the manufac
turers Mr. W. F. Benjamin, editor
of the Spectator, Rushford, N. Y-,
says: “It may be a pleasure to
you to know the high esteem in
which Chamberlain’s medicines are
held by the peeple of your own state,
which they must be best known.
An aunt of mine, who resides at
i Dexter. lowa, was about to visit me
a few years since, and before ieav
. ing home wrote me, asking if they
ware sold here, stating if they were
not she would bring a quantity with
i her, as she did not like to be with
out them.” The medicines referred
to are Chamberlain’s Cough Rem
-1 edy, famous for its cures of colds
and croup; Chamberlain’s Pain
Balm for rheumatism, lame back
pains in the side and chest, and
i Chamberlain’s Colic, Cholera and
I Diarrhoea Remedy for bowel com-
I plaints. These medicines have been
1 constant use in lowa for almost a
1 quarter of a century. The people
have learned that they are articles
of great worth and merit, and un

There Had Been no Murders.
“I spent a few weeks in Black
Hawk, Mont, ’ remarked a treasury
clerk to a Star reporter. “It is a typ
ical frontier western town, and by
the time I had been there a week
three men were killed. I asked my
host if it was not livelier than us
ual.
‘“Livelies, how?’ he asked.
“ ‘Ain’t there more murders than
common?’
“ ‘Murders? I have lived here
since the Camp opened, two years
come next month, an’ I hev yet to
hear of a murder. Black Hawk's
as quiet as a New England village.’
“ ‘Thrqe men have been killed
the past week.’
“ ‘Yes, The fust one called a
feller a liar, so you kin call that
suicide. The secon’ one tried to
tell the bar-keeper how to run his
business, which war a straight case
of bein’ locoed, and ’tother feller
danced with a gal he knew was be
spoke, which showed he wanted to
die. None of them was murders.

Doing One’s Best.
That is all you can demand from
people—and all one can insist upon
from one’s self —to do one’s best
in every sphere and situation. In
the shop or factory, at home or at
school, in the pulpit or on the
bench, the inexorable law is the
law cf doing one’s best. As to
what is the best, that is left to the
individual, and it is not our busi
ness to set down a canon or stand
ard as to our neighbors conduct.
Let us SYeep the snow from our
own sidewalk first; let us do the
nearest duty to be done; let us
breathe into our work all our man
hood or womanhood, all our earn
estness and determination. Then
we can peep a little at our neighbor
and see how he is getting along
and whether the result is worthy
or unworthy.

Matrimonial Quotations.
“Yes,” said the old man, address
ing his young visitor, “I am proud
of my girls and would like to see
them comfortably married,and as
I have made a little money, they
will not go to their husbands pen
niless. There’s Mary, 25 years old
and a real good girl. I shall give
her $5,000 when she marries. Then
comes Bet, who won’t see 35 again,
and I shall give her $10,000; and
the man who takes Eliza, who is4o,
will have $15,000 with her.” The
young man reflected a moment or
so and then inquired, “You haven’t

Selecting Seed Corn.
Question —Would yon advise that
seed corn be selected in the field, or is it
just as well to select the fine ears after
the corn is housed? My plan has al
ways been to keep boxes or barrels
handy, and in taking the feed corn oui
iff the crib, to reserve the very fine oars
l*y throwing them into these receptacles.
Answer.—ln selecting seed corn vve
Should reserve not only the finest ears;
but these should bo taken from the best
stalks. After the corn is gathered and
thrown into the?crib wo, of course; can
form no idea of t io stalks on which thd
best ost7 v-cfe grown, and therefore it
is the safest plan to select the seed from
the field as the crop is gathered. This
may be done by going through the field
first selecting the finest ears on the most
Vigorous and best developed stalks. The
'eats should not only be large,-but vVell
formed also - t’uai is the saino < r nearly
tlie sumo size from tip to tip—well filled
at the ends as well as in the middle, the
cob small and the grains wedge shaped,
that is much smaller at the bottom than
at the top. If not practicable to gather
the seed corn first, then have a box iri
the wagon, and as the crop is gathered
throw the selected ears in this. If you
"do not make the selection yourself,
don’t trust it to the judgment of the or
dinary farm hand—delegate it to some
one whose discrimination you can
depend. In the matter of seed corn,
farmers, as a rule, do not realize the im
portance of careful selection. By actual
test it boa been shown that good seed
will make a difference of several addi
tional bushels to the acre. To keep up
this advantage, the seed - should be se
lected every year, and not once in three
Or four years. In making selections se
lect from stalks with two ears.—State
, Agricultural Department.
Formula For Bordeaux Mixture.
Question. —Please tell me if the Bor
deaux mixture will protect from mil
dew and blights, and if so, how shall I
i make it.
, Answer.—The Bordeaux mixture is
very beneficial in preventing the at
tacks of fungi and blights and is made
! according to the following official for
mula of the United States Department
of Agriculture: “In a barrel that will
hold 45 gallons dissolve six pounds of
copper sulphate, using 8 or 10 gal
lons of water, or as much as may be
necessary for the purpose. In a tub or
half barrell slake four pounds of fresh
lime. When completely slaked, add
enough 'water to make a creamy white
wash. Pour this slowly into the barrel
containing the copper sulphate solution,
using a coarse gunny s ck stretched
over the head of the barrel for a strainer.
Finally fill the barrel with water, stir
thoroughly, and the mixture is ready
for use. Prepared in this way the cost
of one gallon of the mixture will not
exceed 1 cent, the price of copper sul
phate being 7 cents per pound and lime
80 cents per bushel. In all oases it is
desirable to use powdored copper sul-
