A I Al t l S NECESSARY We fail to see how any good Democratcan doubt the propriety of a legislative caucus to nomi nate a senator to be elected by the next legislature. We see in some of the news papers which are support ing Mr. Turner an inclination to create the impression that the friends of the other senatorial can didates are opposed to a caucus, (he idea sought to be conveyed be ing that Mr. Turner, representing the extreme element of the party, cannot look for help from the Populist members, whereas some of his opponents may reasonably entertain such a hope. We do not know what justifica tion these papers have for these insinuations. We have seen no ex pressions in opposition to the holding of a caucus. On the con. trary, wherever the matter ha been mentioned at all in a Demo cratic newspaper it has been ac companied by an expression in fa vor of a caucus, so far as we have observed. As we have already stated, we see no reason why the propriety’ of holding a caucus shonld be doubt ed. As we look at the matter, a cau cus is absolutely necessary, if the Democratic party is to reap the fruits of the victory won by it in the last election. With a Populist n.eniLert-hip of fifty three iu the general assembly prepared to vote f rlhe candidate who has been least active iu his sup port of the Democratic party, or who iu ins views approaches closest to the Popuiist standards, we m-y be sure that no Democrat notable for the zeal of his services to the party or for the orthodoxy of his Democratic be lief can be elected to office unless he has beeu nominated by a caucus. He would be beaten otherwise every time by the combination of D'.s ivais with h’s P >pnlist enemies. The Tel eg iap a desires to see Maje-r Bacon elect iu t > tLe b smate, but de sk < s him elected on ly as a repre— sentive of the Democratic party, ff he c mnot be e!e< tt-d except with the help of Populist vote , then the Tele graph wili be heartily m fav r of that Democrat who can be elected by Democratic votes only. We do not doubt that M’ j. Bacon aas this stuie feeling himseli ; that hr) esires to oe a Democratic senator, not merely a senator. If opposition to he holding of a caucus shows itself, .ve ue'u ve that it will be based on a lesire to use the P pulist strength m electing Democratic officials. The persons tl r ugh waom th i oppoai ion manifests itself ought to be looked upon with suspicion.—Macon Telegraph. There is fun in the Ninth Con gross of New York, where Republi can Candidate Simpson claims to have been betrayed by a conven tion of his party, which has en dorsed the democratic candidate and as a result there are two Re publican candidates in the field Politic* makes strange bedfellows ; aud it is going to i-hut down like a folding bed on some of New Yorks fellowsleepers. The press should quit trying to explain the Democratic slump in Georgia, which after all was no slump, and get down to hard work for overwhelming victory in the Congre-sional election. —Ath. ens Banner. The Banner is right ami the press ami people should,to apq e • and a man , get down to the I usi uess they have in hand and turn out a clean job in November. Mr. Byran appears to be running his newspaper in Omaha iu an im partial way. Half of his political space is given to his own candida cy and the other half to other can didates,wh > certainly have no right to complain at an even divide. Senator Walsh is an eloquent ai d an able Georgian, hut the people want a man just a few degrees more eminently qualified for the h gh office of United State’s Sena tor and they will therefore elect Major Gus Bacon. Pansy Chapel Sunday School will meet at the Court house tns uh rniug at 9:30 o’clock. A J. p ili.imp g' UilHiiian cm ;ve and dress well, have a nice home nd keep a c-uiple of servants ou $ 00 a year. Only a few more <1 ys and Judge Maddox will everlastingly bury’ old Dr. Fl'opper Felton from the arena of Georgia and national polities. Mi s Anna Church, of Toledo, has gone into the coffin business. Will Miss Anna undertake to fur nish churcb yards t.. r h rsubjects? Czar Reed is being criticesed for not referring to Mortons speech in New York last Saturday/-night. Possibly he thought the least said soonest mended. New York, Democracy has neve turned David Bennitt Hill’s pic ture the wall and New Y’ork democrocy never will while it knows how to sing “Comrades.” The printer occasioully gets iol<i and if he was to get a big lo id of wood how happy would he be—Douglas New South. Yes he should have something to saw, so he can spv no rung. In Oscela county, Fla., tho re cent high water has run the hears outof the swamps, and it is said that Bruin is getting in his work aim ng the hogs.

Brother Barns is the first dem ocrat we have heard of who has “got full’ ou Watson’s slush. From Broth'r Barn’s name we would imagine he would require some thing more stable. Now watch big-hearted clever Jake Moore win the appointment of Principal Keeper of the Peni tentiary.

We don’t know how he liked the spider, but it is certain there is no flies on Whitmire—Augusta Chronicle. The Elutsleb of Rome prelicts that Tom Crenshaw will succ-ed Gunby Jordon on the Railroad Commission. Nmnat in Georg a is more eminently qualified to fill the place than Tom Crenshaw— and no man in the state deserves the place more.. A hundred tons of cats’ tails were recently sold in one lot in Loudon for the purpose of orna menting ladies wearing apparel Assuming that an average cat’s tail wouldi way a couple of ounces this would*me*-u that no fewer than 1, pussies had been killed just to supply this one deal.

Re ports come from New' Y’ork that the sile- of stamps and stump ed envelopes average $26,000 a day, an unprecedented sale- even in the campaign season. Additional stamp clerks have been employed and thje business continues a rush. The demand is large for two-cent stamps. The letter carriers say every day now is like St. Val entine’s day in volume of busine?e. TO PUT ON needed flesh, no matter how VT/vv you’ve lost it, take Doctor dYTY Pierce’s Golden Medical t u KUADiscovery.

Nothing so effec tive as a strength-restorer and fiesh-mnker is known to medical science. Filthy Cod Liver Oil and all its disguised compounds can’t compare with it. They build up fat, not healthy ifesA. Practically, you can get the ‘‘Discovery’’ on trial. In everything that’s claimed for It —in purifying the blood, and building up the flesh and strength—if it ever fails to benefit or cure, you have your money back. On these terms, Is any substitute that may pay a dealer better to urge and sell, likely to be “ just as good ” for you to buy f Nothing else, at any price, is really as oh«qp.

A Fifth ward dude sends me the following gem and also adds that his dovii'-dove’s name is pint as | written, but that she has a name ’ and she lives in the Fourth ward. * * Here’s the pome: My sweetheart’s name is Aggie Wood, and she’s a love I }’ girl. Whenever I am by her side My heart is in a whir , The lovely hair that clusters oe r Her brow so pure and white. Would put to »hame the fabled tints That shade the wing of night. HeiJ eeih are fairer than the pearls From Afric far away. But when I gaze upon h r charms I’m tilled with dire dismay. Fow can 1 tell but what she takes Those teeth out of her head, Anil h n ;s that hair sc’oss a chair, When’er she goes to bed. And tha phimpbre st that now appears So perfect aud so full; Is made of cotton batting, Or is the filling Wot 1? * * As a rule’wonien are not anarch ists though woman’s “writes” are always read. * * * Every time the Emperor plucks a leather out of Li Hung Chang’s kap, a pillowcase full is mashed out of his tail by the Japs. Tar tar, old Li Hung. What old Li needs worst is a pair of running shoes and somewhere to go. * * * Women who go into poli-ticks may have towear clock-ad stock ings to keep abreast of the times— At least my watch to date kawses it to strike me that way. I spring the above as -an open case stem winder and stem setter aphorism. * * .* The more I look upon the cen ter piece of the opera house drop curtain, the more um I impressed with the idea that while the Id le fat faced maiden may be “Pick ing Lil) ie»,‘ the bal.me of the crew are cnewing gums. Masticate the idea for a while and you may catch my drift. » * * I one was told me i yesterday by a man who was pres- I ent on the occasion. “It was in I 1887 and Sh-nff Jabs Moore was ervnag a public sale .
