A BAD BUSINESS VENTURE.
Verdant Citizen Of North Carolina
Gets ScoOped.


The drummers tell good story on
North Cnrolinan who located, about Christ
mas, at Stone Mountain. The citizen Of the
Old North State staid at that enterprisinS
town only one week, at cost Of over S@oO.
The young mantle verdant, breezy,
soft ~a-spring-zephvr-lik young man
sold out modest littie farm in North Caro-
lima and boldly struck out for Portland,
Ore, but wisely concluded 70 so South be-
fore he Ind strayed far from his native
heath. Passing through Atlanta, he headed
for Augusta, bS he heard that WAS right
lively sort of town. But, before he reached
Stone Mountain, some one suggested that
that was n good place for young man 70
start ont in business, SO there he got oil ana
after due inspection there he decided 10
open store.
This was on Friday Saturday he bought
a stock Of goods in Atlanta, and they were
shipped out that day. Sunday he joined
the church in the town of his adoption,
Monday his little stock of goods and $50
billiard table arrived, and he oiened up.
Tuesday committee of church members
called upon hun and expOstulated with him.
Preferring TO cling 10 his church Affiliations
rather than his Billiard tlble, he sold tho
latter for $l5 Wednesday in the rear
room OF his store the ~. y. m" made
an eggnog along with a number OF the
convivial youths Of Stone Mountain: but,
TO be sharp, the master of ceremonies, in
stead of sugar put in salt and one of the
youths who partook played of sick and
poisoned, and as soon as convenient next
day the merchant sold out his $500 stock at
a great loss, and shaking the dust of the
town from his feet left for his old homo
poorer and a sadder man.
The rank stranger was the cynOsure of
all eyes before he had been at the Mountain
day. Everybody caught on and took a
hand in the cruel fun
An instance of his stay there was that
some of the boys sawed a plank, that span ed
a deep gully between the North Carolinian's
store and lodging place, partly through on
the under side. OF course the prank sue
ceeded, and he went to the bottom OF the
gully, frightened out of his wits.
In Atlanta, when he went to pay for his
goods, he told the wholesale merchant he
didn't want to show his money to crowd,
and a private settlement being accorded
him, it was found he had his money sewed
into his clothing

Macon's jug Trade.
From the Macon CGaJ TELEGRAPH

FROM We MuCOb NuttsJ JettJlUpNs
The Telegraph met the genial Bob Ware
Tuesday when he had moment to spare,
and asked him how many jugs Of whisky
we're shipped out Of Macon during the
Christmas holidays
well, | know exactly, but | would like
for you to make one guess at it
The Telegraph remembered to have seen
the express office floor covered with jugs on
severa, occasions, and also to have seen
great many at the depots. but he had not
taken any special note of them, so he ven
tured 1000 rs a rough guess.
There were a few more than five thou
sand.n
you don't say"
ayes, there were more than five thou
sand. Macon ships an average of seven
hundred jugs per month, the great bulk, |
might say nine tenths of them, being shipped
in the winter. As the weather gets warm
the number of jugs decrease. Whenever
there is a cold snap look out for big ship
ment"
'You must break great many" said
the reporter, as he imagined cracked jug
allowing red liquor to flow out Of the car
| aad sprinkle the track
Not many. Out of the 5000 shipped
during the holidays not more than five
were broken"
"Who loses the whisky in case of break
age"
The shippers We always take them
only at shippers risk, but we handle them
| just as carefully as if they We're under a
guarantee from us.
The jugs shipped to the dry counties con-
tain from one to three gallons, and the
whisky is all grades, from 81 to So a gallon.
Averaging the 5000 jugs shipped during the
holidays at 81 each, then the amount real
lied by Macon is $4,000, and during the
year $1,000 per month. Averaging the
empty jugs at Ice, each there were $500 in
| jugware, and $40 paid to the Crawford and
Monroe county jug factories per month.
Hancock county gong wet recently will
| cut of the jug trade to a certain extent.

COMPLEXITIES.

The movement for a vote Oh local
option, this fall. will be apt to com.
plicatc county politics. The majority
of the principal politicians of both
parties, rs now Constituted, are high
license men, and il direct issue is
made OIL prohibition, and it is difficult
to see how it can be kept out. it will
take wide straddling for parties OF
candidates to keep OH both sides of
the fence.
The selection and election of the
member of legislature. the sheriff and
county attorney will hinge more par.
ticlllarly OH this issue, as being direct.
y connected with the making and ex.
ecution Of the law. Surely the can.
aidate this fall will have to have two
hip pockets rs he makes his rounds,
and be very careful into which he
puts his hand as lie meets the
granger.
The fact that saloons have been run
wide open i'll many places since the
passage of the local option law will be
the strongest argument against it. and
there are many voters who will vote
the high license ticket this fall who
voted against the sale last fall. But
it will be strange indeed if there is
enough change to repeal the law. In
the full vote. VIC are likely L, lave
this fall, it would require a change in
the opinions of at least 500 voters to
reverse last years decision.

most plausible argument in its favor,
is the direct representation each town.

little cumbersome in numbers, but us
parliamentary law would necessarily
be enforced and much work done by

WILT DIE?

1t is II common remark in demo
cratic papers that the republican party
must win this fall or so to pieces
Nobody ever makes that remark
about the democratic party. History
shows that no matter what issues are
before the people, that it is always
the democratic party. From the days
Andrew Jackson gave it its un.
written but permanent platform, ito
the victors belong the spoils," it has
been permanent party. Amid the
vicissitudcs and changes of time it
has never been on the right side OF
one question of progress; it has never
won an election on, or evolved IL new
idea. From the days Of fugitive slave
laws, squatter sovereignty, pro.s!avery.
secession. emancipation, rcconStruc-
tion, acknowledgements. banking or
civil service, I'LL have been decided
against democratic opposition, and not
one plank of their earlier platforms
is left to stand, except the unwri,tcn
plank before mentioned. They are
not builders, hut breakers; tleslroyers,
not creators.
The republican party WAS evolved
from the progressive opinions of tlst
bulk of the old wings and Il few of the
old democrats. The old wing party
died because in itself it was not pro.
gressive enough, and new party had
to he formed to meet the advanced
IDEAS of the anti.slavery sentiment.
1t may be that the work of the old
republican party is finished. History
would show that to-day they have
Won more than the originators hoped
for. and that the democratic party it.
self has been beaten into more adj
vanced and radical stand than was
taken by the earlier republican plat
forms.
The logic of all this is that the re-
publican party is the party of pro
grcss, and if there are signs of disin
tegration that it is caused by the
leaven of new ideas of reform ;,nt
progress in social and political econ
omy. The Greeley movement, mug
wnmpism, and the prohibition part,
are examples which, though somewhat
cranky in cause, negative in nc
ton. and abortive in result us vet. still
stand for crude ideas of progress ant
reform from which the sieve of time
will winnow the claff and save til,
pure seed. 1t may be that the re-
publican party will find itself sc
clogged with the old organization that
it may not be able TO rise To the al.
vanced thought now working in its
ranks: it may be that it will have to
go through moulting process, but
the change will be Of q purifying na.
ture, and willie it may have different
name, it will III substance be the same
grand old party whose achievements
are the proudcst part of our nation S
history.
