Tuesday. E. A. Nelson, Cl’k. of Council Those Overworked Men. We called attention recently to the schedules of the E. T. V. & G. and the recent cutting down of the work ing force on this end of the road. We again call attention to this matter to show the real hardship worked, and to illustrate, we will take one indi vidual conductor and show his runs. A, for instance, leaves Atlanta at 2:45 p. m. Monday; he reaches Brunswick (300 miles) at 2 o’clock that night (if on time); he remains in Brunswick until 8 :15 a. m. Tues Otur Schools. A committee of cttUens schools yesterday by reqi Boprd, and were pi they saw. The discipline' f excel lent, and the pupils seem i recog nize, m so few pupils do, 1 it they were there for» purpose. 1 i short, that the chief business of t ilr lives at this present time, is to ! £end to sehool duties, other this being secondary. The committee re thor oughly of the opinion that ir* peo ple should be proud of our chools, and should give the Schoi > Board all they ask for. Our sol Sis can be, and should be made i ond to nohe in the State. Both‘Si frinten- dent and teachers impret sd the committee as alive to the be fore them. The writer being present with the having been hindered in He is with them however movement to aid the sohoo The Electric Light In Sm Operation For days past our been on tip toe to see theflai electric light, and their hoj realized when the electric fi turned on last evening at ten They realized that the city of wick was no longer n baby il clothes. The lights were brilliant an one with whom we convers pleased, but the most deligh of all was Mr. Chambers, the intending engineer under wb . ,, ■ '. . .. ing hand the plant was put day and leaves for Atlanta, reaching fa ° e „ a8 a wr ‘ 8th of 8 1 mU thereat9:20at night. Je Ida* lanta Thursday by noon, and Thurs day night leaves Atlanta at 12:30 for Brunswick, reaching here at 11:30 Friday, and starts back that after noon at 3:40, reaching Atlanta at 6:10 Saturday morning. The baggage men, if we are not misinformed, nave even less time to rest than the conductors. The en- ;incers belong in the “motive power’ lepartment, and under a different boss who allows them to stop over at Jcsnp, thus getting needed rest and sleep. As a matter of course, the crews of these various trains have to “grin and bear it” for they can’t afford to lose their jobs. We call attention to these things not at the solicitation of the men, but of our own accord, in the interest of common humanity. Moral: If you want men to render good service, give them a living chance, and show them that you ap preciate their services, and when ne cessity arrives they will look to your interests at every hazzard. We respectfully submit the above to the consideration of the officers and owners of the E. T. V. & G. R. R. trusting that they will give it due thought and relieve these overwork ed men by putting back an entire crew that has been taken off of this run. The habit of chewing tobacco is said to be decreasing. A Boston pa per says: “It is a vice which has few redeeming features, and its decadence is a matter for congratulation.” Com pared with cigarette smoking, which is growing in popularity, tobacco chewing is a manly and meritorious accomplishment. There is more grit and virility in the man who can hit the center of a sawdust spittoon than hundred cigarette smoking dudes. Our race is on the road to decay when weak and debilitated cigarette smokers begin to increase and the sturdy specimens of Ameriean man hood who solace themselves with a quid begin to disappear.

The ladies of the Methodist Church invite the public to an entertainment at the L’Arioso Hall to-night, con sisting of recitations, tableaux, mas ie, vocal and instrumental. Refresh ments will be served immediately after the entertainment. Onl/ ten cents admission to the Hail for grown folks and five cents for chil dren. Atlanta Constitution: We have about sixty churches in Atlanta and each one of these organizations aver age from one to two, and sometimes six entertainments or gatherings for the benefit of these cburches each week. We are perfectly will ing to be as liberal as our space will permit in printing these notices— but it is not exactly fair for church people to ride a free horse too much. AH we ask is that these meeting notices be made aB short as possible, and if there is to bo any elaboration let it be paid for. Not one line goes in the paper without costing the pro prietors something. It is growing and getting very heavy. Last Friday was Arbor day in Pennsylvania. It was very gener ally observed. The public school children have been taught to look forward to this anniversary and they plant thousands of trees every year. The importance of Arbor day has never been folly apprecated in Geor gia. We are doing almost nothing to repair the constant waste of onr forests. With very little expense and labor great Lumbers of young trees could bt- planted in every county of the state on each succeed ing Arbor day.

Interest in tho political situation in New York is growing more intense every dsy. A carefol review of the political situation in other states justifies the conclusion that the par< ty that wins the election must car ry that state. Both the democrats and the republicans are making ex traordinary efforts to carry'it. The democrats are spoil marc confidant of success t^irn. the. republicans. They My emph&tlcally that there is no doubt that they will carry it. Mr. Barnum, chairman of the na tional democratic committee in an Interview in Boston a day or. two ago, said: “I have not the slightest doubt that New York will remain in the demooratio column.” The republicans are not so confi dant They content themselves with saying that New York is a doubt ful ptate, and that the party wnleh shows the greatest skill ip con ducting the remainder of tbfi cam paign will carry it. It is certain they are leaving no means untried to achieve success. It is reported, on what seems good authority, that they have a‘ large amount of money with which to corrupt voters. Whether this report is correct or not, it is of course, impossible to say, but it is certain that the republicans who employ largp numbers of labor ers are trying to bulldoze them into voting the republican ticket Circu lars which republican manufacturers have addressed to their employes, smissal if they refused” to do so, have found their way into print There are two things which cause the managers of the demooratio cam' paign some uneasiness. One 1b tho fight among the democrats over the Mayoralty in the city of New York, and the other is the report of the Herald correspondent, who is travel ing through the State,, that General Harrison will come to Harlem bridge with 70,000 majority. Not mnoh im portance is attached to the Herald’s report by the democratic campaign managers because tbeydo not be lieve that there is anything to justi fy it, but the great majority of the democrats do not know the inside facts, and hence, are somewhat alarm ed by it. The campaign managers are not sure that Ibis alarm will not have a rather injurious effect upon the democratic voters unless it is shown to be groundless. Forty-thraee nsw oases and om death yesterday has put the Jack- sonvilliaas on their mettle, and they have put on a cordon of pickets once more, under the direction of Government, no one ie allowed to go in or out, and no goode except coun try produce allowed to oome In. / Dr. Glbler, the Freuoh scientist, sent here by his government to study yellow fever has arrived.
