A REMARKABLE JOURNEY.

An old negro was carried to the
Rolf home, Tuesday, that had just
completed most remarkable Jour
ney. He lost his toes by frost-bite,
is paralytic, and so badly crippled
that he can scarcely crawl. He was
found on the Houston road beyond
Gllesville, and has slowly been NOV
ing into town for two or three days.
He was taken up and placed in a
wagon by Superintendent Harmon
and carried to the home where he
told the story of his travels.
-Four years ago he left Jacksonville
to come to Macon. He was without
any means and undertook to crawl
the entire distance. His strength
and condition would not permit him
to cover more than a quarter of a
mile day, and crawling over the
ground as he did, he was often COM
PEELED to remain off the road for days
and weeks by reason ofrain and wet
weather. He lived on what was
given him, and sometimes being a
great distance between habitations,
he suffered much for both water and
food. The entire four years was
consumed in making the trip from
jacksonville to Macon, and his first
ride in all that time was in Super
lntendent Harmon's wagon from the
Houston road to Roff's home.-Ma-

Evan Jones, President of the Farm
ers' Alliance of Texas, who was
nominated for Governor by the non
partisan and Union Labor parties,
has concluded torun, and will resign
the presidency of the Alliance in
order to save the organization from
the imputation of participating in
politics. Jones is popular and will
poll a heavy vote. The Republicans
will probably not make nomination,
but will leave the race to Jones and
Martin independent and Ross

for the Governorship may be close.

The Chinese physicians have a
system OF charges just the opposite
OF that practiced by American doc
tors. A Chinaman pays his family
doctor a certain sum OF money as
long as he is not sick, which ceases
lust as soon as the doctors services
are needed. BY this plan the doc
tor studies how he may keep his
patrons well, and becomes an ad
wiser and health guardian as we'll as
physician and nurse. Not bad
idea, if the pay in health is reason
ably fair.

BAD JUDGMENT.

The Piedmont Chautauqua mana
gers, presumed to be democrats, are
now arranging and inviting Repub-
lican speakers to come to Georgia.
In the absence Of any action Of the
Republican party of Georgia to map
out and conduct Republican cam
paign in this state, a few Democrats
have presumed to act as proxies and
to do that work for them. This
seems to be very questionable party
loyalty and is a gratuitous service
which We think should have been
lett to Bullock, Buck, Pledger, ct.
al. to perform without the aid of
Democrats. 1t is not whether Nc
Kinley, the high protective Repub-
lican politician will be able to con-
vert democrats to Republican doc
trine, which he comes to preach,
but whether Democrats shall ar
range programmes and drum and
advertise for audiences for Republi-
can speakers to antagonize the Dem
ocratic platform and the principles
advocated by President Cleveland,
the Presidential standard bearer of
the National Democratic party. If
this matter is done for the sake of
shekels or ''gate money" then the
Chautauqua will have been murder
ed in the house of its friends. Prin-
ciples should be priced more than
pelf. We have the highest esteem
for our friends of the Chautauqua,
but we think they have acted with
bad judgment in this matter. Poll
tics should not have found a place
in its conduct.
When we say the managers have
acted with bad judgment, we do so
having confidence in the rectitude
of their motives, believing their zeal
to make the Chautauqua success
has misled them, and that they had
no disposition to offend their fellow
democrats in Georgia, or to coun-
tenance indirectly or be party to
breathing life into the putrid corpse
of Republicanism in Georgia, by in
viting the leaders of that party in
the North OF Northwest to speak
here in advocating the principles
embodied in the Republican party
platform, upon which Harrison and
Morton expect to be elected. 1t is
not whether it is necessary to test the
courtesy of democrats in Georgia to
see whether they will give Mr.. Nc
kinley a respectable hearing, which
they will certainly do, but whether
democrats should feel it incumbent
upon them to do what the Republi-
can party managers are not doing,
inviting Republican speakers to
Georgia during national campaign
to make Republican speeches and
to disseminate Republican doctrines.
Republican speakers have right to
come to Georgia, and will be treat
ed courteously when they do come,
but let them come of their own ac-
cord, or at the instance of their po-
litical friends.

Feeding Bran or Potatoes.

y Wisconsin farmer inquiries whether DO
tatoes at % cents per bushel are cheaper
for feeding mich cows than bran. In reply
Prot. Henry, in Hoard's Dairyman, SAYS :
Approaching the subject from the chemical
side we can get a pretty satisfactory answer
from that point of view. At 2j cents per
bushel, potatoes are worth about 40 cents
per 100 pounds. Calling bran SIP per ton
we have a cost of GO cents per 100 pounds
so that the question is. (Which is the cheap
er feed, potatoes at 40 cents per 100 pounds
or bran at 60 cents y On page 1O4 of the
fourth annual report of this station is ia
bic showing the digestible constituents of
our common food articles. BY the table we
find 100 pounds potatoes worth 40 cents
contain pound protein, 49, pounds Carlo
hydrates 100 pounds wheat bran worth 81
cents contain 1916 pounds protein and 40
pounds -hydrates and fat 1t is quite
evident that bran is far cheaper than the
potatoes for feeding purposes at the prices
named, and if farmer can get % cents
per bushel for the potatoes he can afford to
haul them some distance to exchange for
bran at such prices. The potatoes would
require cooking if fed to cows. believe
however, that if one should feed potatoes to
stock he will get rather better results than
would be indicated by a chemical expression
as have here given, Animals require va
riety in their food in order to make the best
gains and the farmer who feeds nothing
but hay and bran or cornstalks and bran
all winter long will find that for a time his
animals will show remarkable results from
almost any new kind of palatable food they
may receive
The relative prices of bran and potatoes
are about the same here as in Wisconsin
The above is therefore applicable to this
locality
