GUERRY FOR CONGRESS.
LIT the Young Men Come to the
Front.


t.Farner" IN Early County News.
Tn the last issue. of the News
"Citizcn" sets forth his reasons
for returning Mr.. Turner to Con
cress from this, the End district:
also, why Col. J. H. Query
should not be sent-that he is
Young and can wait. He comedies
that Col. Guerry is amply quail
fed, but says this is not the right
time to have Mr.. Turner suspend
ed. Well, some of us "wool hat
bows would like to know when is
n GOOD time to supersede q man
in a fat Office to suit the conven-
ience Of himself and friends. We
think it about time to supersede
Mr.. Turl.er. That end Of the
district has furnished the
man ever since the war, and
docs Citizen" think it right and
Just that they should enjoy that
honor indefinitely, when we have
lust as good Congressional timber
as they have? We say supersede.
Col. Query is Mr.. Turner'S
equal in the way of qualification
and his superior as an orator, ard
besides, Guerry is no school boy.
Nearly all of Georgia's eminent
statesmen stepped to the front
very young. Joe Brown and Ben
Hill opposed each other in the
Gubernatorial race of 1856 at 80
to 80 years of age. If they should
have waited until so, does anyone
suppose that they would have ev-
er been heard Of outside the State? =?
Our grand old State stands
greatly in need of statesmen. If
we continue to tell our young men,
"Stand back; there are older men
than you that want Office" in a
few years moro we can only speak
of our great men rs q thing of the
past. 1t is very rare occurrence
for q man Of so to start in public
life and rise to the pinnacle Of
fame. Now. Col. Query has as
much right to offer himself for
Congress as Mr.. Turner, whose
end of the district has enjoyed the
privilege Of representing US many
years. That portion Of the dis
trict ought to have magnanimity
enough to let us share thu honor
for little while, 1--WE won't keep

seems that they are a little gree
dy, having three candidates in the
field already.
trust the Democracy, more es-
pecially the young Democracy,
will give to Col. Query their
united support aud make him the
standard bearer for our district.
Ii they should, they will be proud
of him some day in the near fu-
ture. Mark my prediction, he is
a rising man and is bound to sue

A Living Skeleton with Actions Like
o Monkey.

A very strange case has come
to the notice of the physicians of
the Children's Hospital, on Twen-
ty-second street, below Walnut.
About two weeks ago o child was
brought for treatment, and when
its clothing was removed it was
found to be a living skeleton
The legs and arms were without
one particle Of flesh, nothing but
the covering of the skin. The
head comes almost to a point and
the actions Of the child are very
much like those of a monkey.
The child does not suffer and if
left alone will remain quiet but if
made uncomfortable in any way
will make noise which resembles
the cry of q monkey. The child
is five years of age and has never
spoken, and is only as large as q
child of two years in good health.
DIR. Louis Starr has made tests
and says he cannot discover any
evidence that the faculty of hear

home had been for some time, and
fate brought his regiment into the
bate of Gettysburg. When the
last fierce charge of the Confed-
ates was made, and the battle
seemed to be in their favor
about the time when Lee tele-
graphed: eve are having it all
our own way about the time
when the long and thin line of
the Second corps seemed to melt
into nothingness, and the Vermont
boys were swept aside as easily as
one would lift curtain, when
Howard yelled to the gunners to
annihilate the Confederate sup
ports, and the cemetery was hid
from view in q dense cloud of
sulphurous smoke-then the two
brothers met once more face to
face. But they didn't recognize
each other at first, and when the
Federal thrust aside bayonet
which had been pointed at the
breast of the other, thus averting
a speedy death, he had no idea
that he was in the presence of his
brother who had so foully wronged
him. The Confederate recognized
only Union soldier, not savior,
and, when the man who had al
most risked q life to save his body
from the cruel bayonet thrust at
tempted to pass to the field in the
distance, pulled out revolver,
and, taking deliberate aim, fired.
The Federal fell, and, falling
turned toward the brother, gave a
look so full of reproach and ago
ny that the other was almost
stricken dumb. Then it was that
the recognition took place. Once
more they had met, and under cir-
cumstances which neither had
ever imagined could possibly oc-
cur. In few moments the Union
soldier had passed away, but not
before he had granted the forgive
ness so honestly asked for. He
never inquired for his wife, nor
was she thought of by the other
who was fast following his broth
er into eternity. It took but
few moments for the wounded
man to outline this story for me,
and | sat almost dazed at the sim
gularity of the occurrence. In
few moments there were two
corpses, and the next morning
they were buried side by side,
All animosities were buried be-
meath the earth.

A correspondent of the Philadelphia

for 1888, says: "Ex.Governo Charley
Foster, of Ohio, told me the other day
that, taking the rank and file Of the

men are in favor of Mr.. Blaineis renomi-

West Virginia, who is Democrat and
father-in.law of Steve Elkins, said to me
only a day or two before that through
his spectacles Mr.. Blaine was the only
Republican candidate really in sight.
This feeling seems to be almost universal
among the Democrats here, due in a
great measure perhaps to the failure of
Mr.. Cleveland to please those who de.
mand the loaves and fishes and don't get
them. The Irish are still hankering after

A NEEDED CHANGE OF COM.
MANDERS.

General Crook was on Saturday re
lieved from command Of the Department
of Arizona and General Miles takes his
place. We cannot assume that this in
dicates any dissatisfaction with Crook al
the War Office, remarks the San Fran
cisco Bulletin, because it is part OF a gen
eral order making new assignment Of
commanders. Be that as it may, the
people Of Arizona will welcome the
change. From ardent admirers they
have become equally earnest opponents
of General Crook. The unchecked de.
predations Of the hostiles for the past
year tested the patience of the people,
and the recent escape of Geronimo with
his followers, arms, ammunition and
stock, broke it down completely. The
strongest friends of General Crook will
find it difficult to apologize for that fasco.
Geronimo and his band were practically
corralled between American and Next
can forces. They were SO hard pressed
that they offered to surrender, with the
alternative of being hunted to death.
Yet on giving themselves up they were
allowed to retain their arms, and were
loosely guarded that they could even
escape with their stolen cattle at their
pleasure.
1t has been often asserted in Arizona
that too much money is involved in an
Indian campaign for it to be brought to
a close in short order. No sane man
would accuse General Crook of being in.
fuenced by any such considerations, but
there are men all around him, traders,
contractors, etc., some Of whom may be.
Geronimo and his band got drunk at a
traders camp after their surrender, and
were then, it is reported, frightened
into making their escape. Why were
they allowed to do so? They seem to
have been under no restraint whatever,
except that which they chose to i'm.
pose upon themselves. The best that
can be said of the management of the
affair is that it has been character.
lied throughout by utter weakness
and credulity. The work has all to
be done we again. at an expense
of life and property no n can tell. 1t
is to be hoped that General Miles will
prove to be a man of sterner stuff than
his predecessor.

FoRTY.oNE THOUSAND OF THEM


The Senator who called for the num-
Der of fourth.class Postmasters appointed
during the past year, with the object Of
gaining an expected point for the Repub-
~licans, made a water haul only. There
are over fifty thousand Postmasters Of
this denomination, and only eight thou.
sand six hundred changes have been
made, or about one-sixth Of the aggre-
gate. In other words, there are still in
Office over forty.one Thousand Republican
Postmasters, exclusive of Presidential
appointments. They exercise more pc.
litical influence, and come more directly
in contact with the people at large, than
any other class of oficeholders.
If any complaint is to be made it
might justly come from the Democrats,
says the New York Sun, who see parti.
sans of the most offensive stamp enjoy
the trusts to which they are fairly en-.
titled. These Republican Postmasters
are the most efficient agents of the party
in all the rural districts. Their offices
are the centers of attraction, and they
are used openly to put in motion the ma
chinery for carrying elections. They
will be important factors in the coming
Congress elections. and no matter what
sentimental orders may be issued from
Washington, they will do their best, il
retained in office, to elect Republican
Representatives,
