through her car she would be sure to grasp
at my arm and ask me to let her know when
the train got to Lumber City, I presumed
she wanted to lie over there. Well, sir. in
due time we got to Lumber City,
and told the colored brakeman to
put his head in at the door of her car and
boiler Lumber City" He did SO, and

engine was reversed, and we backed back
to Lumber City.
Upon reaching the station, turned to
the old lady and said "Here you are

She showed no disposition to move, but
quietly looking out of the window, said; SIS
you sure this is Lumber Cityp

THE NATIONAL CAMPAIGN.
Maj. Bscon's Flying Visit to Macon
The Democratic Outlook.
From the Macon (Ga.) Telegraph.

From the Macon (Ga.) Telegraph.
About a month ago, Maj. A. o. Bacon,
at the solicitation of Chairman Brice,
agreed to assist the national democratic
committee in the management Of the cam
paign. He returned to Macon Tuesday
morning and spent only seven hours in the
city, fastening back in the afternoon TO
resume bis duties at democratic headquar-
ters
When asked about the campaign, he said
Both sides are doing tremendous work.
No man can form any idea of the vast
machinery Of national campaign until he
has seen it in operation. 1t is not cam
paign of buster, but of systematic and de-
termined effort"
''What are the democratic prospectsn =
II believe Cleveland and Thurman will
be elected. because the democrats are going
TO put forth all their strength. 1t is foolish
to underestimate the strength of our Oppon-
ents. They are conducting a very strong
campaign, and we cannot afford to be idle
one moment. We will win victory as the
reward of hard work. The committee real
ICES the importance of continued activity,
and nothing is left undone that can aid the
democratic cause 1t is a campaign
of argument There never was be-
fore such demand for speakers.
Thousands OF men are on the stump
for both sides in the doubtful states, and
every inch of debatable ground is hotiy con-
tested Mr.. Turner of Georgia delivered a
speech in New Haven last Saturday night,
and has agreed to help lis further. His
position as a member Of the ways and
means committee and his well won reputa-
ton in congress bring him into special de-
maud. Yes, it is a great struggle. The
next five weeks will be the most critical
period of it. have great confidence in the
wisdom and prudence of the democratic
managers, and believe that after the heat
Of the campaign we shall enjoy a victory
which will be ample compensation"
