V 01. vil. FUSION PLAN NOT APPROVED Address Issued To Populists of the United States. MEETING HELD IN KANSAS CITY Populists Are Urged To Stand By the niddle=of-the~Road Faction. Butler Idea Denounced. At the joint meeting of the populist national organization committee and National Reform Press association at Kansas City the past week, an address to populists of the United States was formulated and issued. The address urges a thorough or¬ ganization of the middle-of-the-road¬ ers in every section of the country, with the understanding that they shall enter the next national raimpaign with the present populist organization, but that wherever fusion shall gain the day, whether in county, state or na¬ tional convention, the middle-of-the roaders shall bolt and begin an active campaign to carry out their princi¬ ples. The alleged fusionist tendencies of Marion Butler, chairman of the popu¬ list national, committee, are provided against, in a clause which authorizes the national organization committee to call a convention if they shall be convinced that the national chairman or the national committee is ploying into the hands of the fusionist,fi. The address of the committee, in substance, is as follows: “Chat the voters of tiro nation .may feel assured that the people’s party shall not again he betrayed iu nation¬ al convention or its working forces passed into tiro hands of the enemy, ami to inspire confidence among the masses in the integrity of onr acts and sincerity of our demands for inde¬ pendent action as a party, we-rdspect fally submit to the populists of the nation the following plan of action: “1. That the national organization committee hereby instructs its chair¬ man to proceed with the formation of people’s party precinct clubs in all tlie states on the plan recommended by the Cincinnati convention of Septem¬ ber, 1898, or some relative plan, and to appoint in each state not having members already selected three mem¬ bers of the national organization com¬ mittee, and with the assistance and advice of these committeemen to select a state organization committee of the same number of members as the then existing state committee, and through these committeemen to organize as far as possible organization committees in congressional districts, counties and votiug precincts. Wherever it is posi¬ tively known that those members of national, state and other committees now existing are unqualifiedly opposed to fusion with either of the old parties and for independent, straightforward action by the people’s party, they are to be selected as members of the sev¬ eral organization committees. “2. It shall be the duty of the sev¬ eral committees to use all honorable means to secure tlie selection of dele gates to the various conventions lead¬ ing up to the nomination of the presi¬ dential convention iu 1900, who are opposed to fusion and, failing in this, to provide for and send contesting delegates to the several conventions. That is to say, if those who are oppos¬ ed to fusion are unfairly or dishonor¬ ably treated iu the county convention they shall send a delegation to con¬ tent the seats of the fusion delegation in the state convention. “If the state convention is controll¬ ed iu the interest of the fusion and against an honorable and straightfor¬ ward people’s party policy, as soon as this is determined the middle-of-the road delegations shall leave the con¬ vention and send a contesting delega¬ tion from the state to the national convention. Should tlie national con¬ vention be controlled by straight populists, all delegates sent under this plan shall feel themselves in honor bound to nominate a%d those candidates for president vice-president by the referendum vote, provided in the judgment of the national organization •committee there shall have been suffi cieut organization to make such a vote both practicable and representative of tlie will of the party. “Should the national convention of 1900 be controlled iu the interest of ‘fusion,’the straight delegation shall leave said convention and join the con¬ testing plan in delegations straight sent under this and a convention, then carry out the will of the popul¬ ists of the nation without' regard to the ‘fusion’ convention. “In this case the national organiza¬ tion committee and the several state, district and country precinct commit¬ tees organized under this plan Bhall be recognized as the only committee having authority in the affairs of the people’s party. THE RECORD. DEVOTED TO THE INTEREST OP JOHNSON COUNTY AND MIDDLE GEORGIA. WRIGHTSVILLE, GA., THURSDAY, JUNE 1, 1899. If it should so occur that the na¬ tional committee fail to issue the call for a national people’s party conven¬ tion within tluo time in the discretion of the national organization commit¬ tee, said organization committee shall then proceed to issue a call for a na¬ tional convention. We offer this plan of action know¬ populist ing that it will (1st)’ show to every that we are willing to remain in good fellowship with our “fusion” brethren, with whom we have differed in the past in accepting distasteful al¬ legiance with the enemies of the peo¬ ple’s party; provided they will, with us, stand squarely on the original principles of the party and the line of action intended by its founders, who declared at Omaha, in 1892, that the two old partios were jointly responsi¬ ble for the miseries of the people and the unjust legislation which oppressed them; (2nd), if they lefuse to do so, that we wish them to know that we cm go with them no further, preferrim to adhere to the grand principle; of untainted populism than lo truth in those tacred principles for persona or We political advancement and gain. share the linuiil n' ■•>•> .> f *’ populist voters who have found them¬ selves in the past forced to vote for candidates not, in sympathy with each demand of the people’s party platform, and urge them to diligently work in the future to avert any repetition of such complications. We recommend that an earnest effort to carry out the request for the refer¬ endum vote asked for by the Cincin¬ nati convention ho made, so that the idlest expression on the question may he obtained. In order that states using the Na¬ tional Precinct Referendum club sys ems of parly government may be made most effective, we recommend that these clubs be prepared to vote on na¬ tional candidates and other questions between October 1st, 1899, and Jan¬ uary l.st, 1900, and send tabulated vote of same by states to Hon. Milton Park, chairman national organization committee, J lull as, Texas, who, as soon as practicable, shall certify na¬ tional results of same to the public. Wir. L. Peep, Chairman. Jo A. Pauses. L. Stebbixs. II. P. Jones. L. II. Weller, Secretary. Brasses for the Pasture. No one grass is best suited for tlie permanent pasture. A judicious mix¬ ture litis always been found to give the best results. A mixture of a few good grasses and many weeds is not the kind referred vo, but a proper mix¬ ture of well-tested grass plants. Nearly all grass mixtures that we purchase at the seedsman’s arc* supposed to be mixed with an eye single to the best interests of the farmers, but personally I prefer to mix my own grass seeds. It is not at all strange that the seeds¬ men should scant a little ou the va¬ rieties that cost the most. The best varieties of grass for good, all-round, permanent pastures aie the common blue grass, orchard grass or meadow fescue. Probably they pro¬ duce foliage with more of the food¬ making elements in them than any others. That Is, they are rich in potein, and gluten. As the grasses must large¬ ly decide the condition of the cows, they are called upon to supply flesh, muscle, blood, skiu, hair and tendons. Fat is unnecessary. We can lay on fat enough with the grains when we want to top them off for market, Mean while, they must have blood, muscle, and fleshmaking food. They must also get most of this from the grass on which they are pastured most of the growing season. Kentucky blue grass is largely used for pasture fields, but as a rule It is so slow in furnishing good, permanent pastures that it should occupy only a secondary consideration in the mix¬ ture. Its catch is less certain than any of the others, and it really does not furnish good grazing until five or six years. Orchard grass probably gives the quickest and best results of any, and in any mixture it should occupy a high pereeutuge. In from twelve to four teen months it supplies a good pasture. Moreover, it catches readily on a great -variety of soils v It will also thrive in all sorts of weather. Neither the heat, dry spells, cold and freezing will not dislodge it after its roots once get es¬ tablished. But on account of the more permanent character of the Kentucky blue grass I think it would be a mis¬ take to use all orchard grass and none of-tlie latter. On a good soil where seeding is ob¬ served occasionally a permanent pas¬ ture land ought to be kept flourishing for upwards of twenty years. Besides seeding occasionally iu poor places, the land should be enriched occasionally with top dressings of manure. Close cropping should never be permitted.— A. B. Barrett in the American Cultiva tor. A FATAL OMISSION. Caller—“Is Mr. Scribbler, one ol your reporters, in?” City Editor (with n dark frown)— “No, sir. I have discharged him.” Caller—“Indeed! May I ask the reason ? ’ City Editor (wrathfully)—“He wrote up an account, of a suicide without mentioning the calibre of the revolver. ” LABOR AND INDUSTRY SOME ITEMS OF INTEREST TO UNION WORKMEN.

A'os, your theme, “Old Time Religion," had a mighty pleasant sound. Cut in Uncle iltc'.s opinion there’s but lit¬ tle to be found In our tine, new-fangled churches, with their velvet-covered pews, And their sermons made to order, like the rich man’s coat and shoes. And you say Prof. Herron might have done a lot o’ good If he'd preached ohl-tlme religion, warn¬ in’ sinners as lie should, 'Stid o’ harping ’bout our nation gob¬ blin’ up the Philippines, And about the vile oppressions practiced by our men ol' “means.” And you say, “he might have reckoned that he’d turn up in the lurch. For it takes a pile o’ money to support the People’s church So the trustees had to stop hltn for the sake of revenue. Not because his pulpit message wasn’t able, strong, and true. Now, about “old-time religion,” parson, 1 had always thought That the ancient prophets preached 11, but It seems that you tliluk not; For they thundered at their nation ami rebuked it lor Us wrongs Jlst as often as they blessed it in their patriotic songs. And somehow I always reckoned that the good Apostle James Preached the good, old-time religion, but the shameless way he blames Wealthy nabobs for oppressln’ and for keepin’ wages back, He was jlst as bad as Herron, if not furder off the track. And I thought that Jesus preached It In Ills sermon on the mount, But accordin’ to your thlukln’ his plain gospel didn’t count. For It riled the wealthy rulers and the big religious boss Called the church trustees together and they nailed him to the cross. —George McA. Miller in Chicago Journal. Must Pay Overtime. A decision regarded as tending to change the relations of employer and employe in the commercial center of Chicago was announced the other day by Judge Dunne in the suit brought by Robert L. Retd against Henry C. I.yt ton, proprietor of the Hub clothing store, for the recovery of wages al¬ leged to be due for work performed after business hours. Reid was em¬ ployed as a salesman from August, 1894, to July, 1895, at $11 a week, Ills hours being settled before his employ¬ ment in the store. When he ceased working for the firm Reid demanded pay for overtime, which was refused by his employers. Suit was begun and a verdict awarding to Reid $84.72 was returned by the jury. In overruling the motion for a new trial and entering Judgment oil the verdict Judge Dunne held that where a contract for a fixed number of hours of labor existed an employe was entitled to pay for over¬ time. The case was argued by Attor¬ ney G. S. Baker, representing the plaintiff. In making his ruling Judge Dunne said: "The defendant in tlie case at the bar recognized the value of the time of the plaintiff by docking him 25 cents for being two minutes late. Why not compensate him for his extra labor in hours outside of the time specified in the contract? Labor is the only commodity that a great propor¬ tion of the community has to sell. Why should not the same rule apply to i: as to merchandise? The court knows of no reason to the contrary.” After citing a case in the Maine courts which held that acceptance of payment for a day’s labor was no bar to a claim for labor performed nights and Sundays, except in the case of agricultural serv¬ ants and persons employed by the month, Judge Dunne said: “The doc¬ trine above cited commends itself to the judgment and conscience of this court. All the extra labor performed by the plaintiff for the defendant was performed at night and without the hours specified in the contract, after the store was closed—some of it in all night vigils—and the court can sec no Just reason and recognize no rule of law which deprives him of compensa¬ tion therefor.” Mirrpr Sinking Industry, The mirror making industry in the United States employs more than 2,000 persons, and the product is valued at about $8,000,000 a year. The process is thus described: The* first step in the manufacture is the adjustment of a smooth stone table. Around this ta¬ ble, which can be canted to one side by means of a set screw beneath, Is a groove, in which mercury flows from one corner Into the bowls. The table Is made perfectly level; then tinfoil is carefully laid over it, covering a greater space than the glass to be coated. The metal is then poured upon the foil till it is nearly a quarter of an inch deep, being prevented from flowing off by strips of glass placed along three sides of the foil. From the open side is slid on the plate of glass, whose advancing edge Is kept in the mercury, so that no air, floating oxide of the metal, or other impurities can work in between the glass and the clear surface of the mercury. When its desired position has been reached it is held until one edge of the has been raised and the superflu¬ mercury has run off. It is left for hours, and then placed upon a the “back” by this time being with the amalgam, which ad¬ to it. After the amalgam be¬ hard the plate is ready for use Iron and Steel Kxports. Additional evidence that everywhere the Pittsburg district Industries are and wages are going up is by James C. Gray, constructing of the Ohio Steel company, at Mr. Gray stated that a of blast furnaces in and about Youngstown that have been idle for years have been purchased, and are to be put in operation, and that the mills there are running to their fullest capacity day and night, He that the present prosperity in the iron and steel industry rests on a solid basis, and It will last for a long time. Asked whether the general increase in prices would not have the effget of wrecking the export trade, he said: are producing iron and steel so much cheaper than any other country in the world that prices can be put up still farther without any danger of cutting off our foreign markets. Of course It Is well known that with all mills working at their full capac¬ ity, and depending only on home con¬ sumption. the market would soon be overstocked; but there is no fear that prices will be forced up to exceed the limit at which foreign buyers would call a halt. Only a day or two ago .London and Northwestern road of placed a big order with one of our great mills. And then we are likely to get a good deal of business our new possessions. Before long —at least that is my opinion—ship loads of American rails, locomotives, cars and structural iron will be eu route to Cuba, Porto Rico and the Phil¬ ippines. Yankee enterprise will make things hum in those islands, you can depend upon that.” With regard to the action of con¬ gress in reducing the price of armor plate to $300 per ton, Mr. Gray said: “It will do great injury to that indus¬ try in this country. The first cost of plate plants is so enormous that the business cannot be carried on at a profit at the rate of $300 per ton for finished product. It would be dif¬ ferent , if the government would con¬ tract with the armor plate manufac¬ concerns covering a period of, ten years.”-—Pittsburg Dispatch. Chapel in a Coal Mine. Few places of worship in the country have more Interest than the Miners’ In the Myndd Newyyd (New colliery, near Swansea. Sit¬ 750 feet below the surface of the with four rows of pibwood to sustain the roof, a rude desk on a large lump of coal for a pulpit and a of rough-hewn planks as "pews,” it is Indeed the strangest of the many bethels in wild Wales. Every Monday morning without a break for fifty-four years the colliers crowded into the novel apartment to ask the blessing of Providence upon the week’s work. To the eldest miner present the con¬ duct of the service is customarily in¬ trusted, but properly ordained divines have not infrequently descended into the mine before the Monday’s “turn” has commenced, and the whitewashed walls of the little chapel have resound¬ ed with that Celtic ferver which Welshmen speak of as the hywl (which no irreverent Saxon should pronounce as howl). One motto there is painted near the pulpit: "Os nos heb ddlm ser nid nos heb Ddmv deyruasa lau wadnaw Myn ydd Curlog.” Freely Interpreted, that is: “If it is night without stars, it is not night without God, for he reigneth under the foundations of the moun¬ tain.” Whether it be ascribed to good luck, to good management or the responsive protection of Providence, it is a fact that for the last half century Mynydd Newydd colliery has been singularly fi^e from serious accidents. The colliery is owned by Vivian & Sons, and the late Lord Swansea did much to encourage the devotional ex¬ ercises In the pit.—London Leader. A Woman Kxecntioner. A few years ago the official execu¬ tioner at Brussels died, and a substitute was temporarily appointed, says Tit Bits. On one occasion this person was ill and unable to attend. But at the appointed hour a stout, middle-aged woman presented herself at the cen¬ tral police station and quietly remarked to the assembled functionaries: “I’ve for the execution. My husband is not very well this morning, and has asked me to take his place. Please let us get to business.” The general stu¬ pefaction may be more easily imag¬ ined than described, which, being no¬ ticed by the would-be lady executioner, she added, in a reassuring tone: “Oh, thi3 is not by any means the first time.” ft afterward transpired that the woman, whose name was Marie Rege, had officiated on several occa¬ in lieu of her husband. Dressed in his clothes and her face masked, had been the public executioner at executions, and never had the been interrupted by a sin¬ gle hitch. v i. • . rtfM 09 -Oi 0 €9 - 5 !

NEW TORE CITY. The Proper Thiug in Skills. Skirts are all clinging from the knees up and flare about the feet, but are not cut in genuine eel-skin style either by leading French modistes or tailors of highest repute. The prevailing mode, which is circular either with a gored front or cut all in one with the single seam at the back, sets snugly to tlie figure and adheres to its lint's, as good styles should do, but only in rare in¬ stances does it run to the extreme of appearing so tight as to render both walking and sitting a difficult task, while few if any well-dressed women consent to that length of front which means awkward movement, if not ac¬ tual danger. As a well-known modiste who eaters to the wealthy and exclu¬ sive asserts, “many things are extreme¬ ly fashionable that are little worn.” Freedom, grace, and beauty have be¬ come too well understood to allow any such hampering fashion full sway. Wo. men of sense and judgment wear what they prefer, and modify “the latest out” to their own tastes and needs. Only upon the stage do we see the edicts ad¬ hered to without moderation. Real life is too active, too full of daily demands to permit a surrender of common sense and utility. Education along artistic lines has become too common to allow the mistake of believ.ng that any fash¬ ion can be good that interferes with natural grace or necessitates a cramped and restricted walk. As a rule the skirts flare in graceful, undulating waves about tlie feet, and those designed for street wear just es¬ cape the ground at the front. But it must be confessed racy ate frequenciy sliglitl.v trained, although a sufficient number barely touch to allow of refus¬ ing to do scavenger’s work without the risk of being outre or pronounced, and of reserving greater length for indoor and carriage gowns, where it is effec¬ tive in tlie extreme. While tunics are much worn and are graceful upon tall, slender women, the plain skirt either bound with braid or stitched as a finish still holds, and is even preferred for these gowns of steady use. The circu¬ lar flounce, while not new, is seen, but the simple model is preferred and far more generally becoming, as the great¬ er number of women require all the ef¬ fect of height it is possible to obtain. Tlie tall girls who tower over their 1 tale friends, although apparently in¬ creasing in number, make the small minority as yet, and those ideal figures whose proportions are perfect are seen far more often in fashion plates than in real life.—The New Voice. Music in Everything. Tlie chief industry of Genova is the manufacture of musical boxes. Thou¬ sands of men, women and children are employed in the factories, one of which was visited by a traveler, who gives some interesting particulars about his visit. An attendant Invited him to take a seat. He did so, and strains of delight¬ ful music came from the chair. He hung his hat on a rack and put liis stick iu tlie stand. Music came from both rack and stand. lie wrote his name in tlie visitors’ register, and on dipping his pen into tlie ink music burst forth from tlie inkstand. Tlie manager of the factory ex¬ plained the process of making musical boxes, a business which requires pati¬ ence and nicety. The different parts are made by men who are experts iu those parts, and who do nothing else, year in and year out. The music is marked on the cylinder by a man who lias served several years of apprenticeship; Another man in¬ serts in tlie marked places pegs which have been filed to a uniform length. The comb, or sot of teeth, which strikes the pegs and makes the sound, is aranged by a man who does nothing else. The cylinder is then revolved, to see that every peg produces a prop¬ er tone. TIk- most delicate work of all is tlie revising of each peg. It is done by a workman who has a good ear for music. lie sees that every peg is in its proper place and is limit at the cor¬ rect angle. When the instrument-is in its case, an expert examines it to see that the time is perfect.—New York Herald.
