A farmer in Michigan sold his farm Of
one hundred acres in 1864 for 500 per
acre-not an extravagant price at that
time-and received $4,000. With that
be bought $4,000 of IS. bonds, bearing
6 per cent. interest in coin. These bonds
furnished an income of 5000 per annum,
and left him free to dispose of his labor
as be saw fit. His labor, together with
the income from the bonds, supported his
family, without adding to or taking from
the original amount received as proceeds
from The sale of the farm. In 1873 the
6 per cent. bonds were exchanged for 4
per cents. duo in 1907 At present rates
of premium his bonds are worth Sl2,500.
How is 1t with the purchaser of the
farm? For the first few years the bust
ness of farming paid him profit, but
since 1873 his profits have been less, until
state of positive loss has been reached.
AS it now stands, lie is an old man, bis
best energies gone. His farm is less fer
tile. Ills buildings old and weather
beaten. He has no more stock than when
he began, and the farm that cost him
$40, 900, twenty.six years ago, upon which
be has expended all the labor of the best
years of his life, cannot be sold for 81 ,0OO.
But the rno ey with which it WAS pur-
chased has increased in its power over
values until it will now buy more than
three just such farms. Is there not some.
thing beyond free trade or protective tariff
in this example.-.Nati0nai Economist.

Just at this time Congress is trying to
do something to stop the ominous growl
that is everywhere coming up from the
people. 1t is indulging in all sorts of
experiments in the hope of blundering
into the right one. Let them work. Let
them bring out all the remedies the entire
membership can think of, the end is in
The near future. President Lincoln said :
"You can fool part of the people all the
time, all of the people part of the time !;
but you can't fool all the people all of the
time" The two first propositions have
been worked 10 their fullest extent on
this generation I; the last one is being
tried, but it won't do. Father Abraham
WAS right, and the plutocrats of America
will soon find that out. Some time, and
that soon, a representation of the people
will stand up, and with words that burn,
and tones that reach wherever there is a
citizen of this Republic will say, 1T is
enough, the time has come. Let the af-
Aictions of this people cease" 1t will be
done easily, but most thoroughly" Let
no one disbclieve this. Let no one falter,
but every one work for its accomplish.

The result of the Twenty. one" Con-
vention held in Columbia last week,
shows very plainly the true condition of
politics in this State.
There are :two classes of men in the
Democratic party. One class, represent.
ed by 235 elected delegatesin Convention
March q, believe that a change in the
policy of the State government is neces-
sary to the prosperity and contentment OF
the great mass of her citizens. They be-
lieye that the State government has been
run against the interest of the producing
classes, and in favor of the moneyed
class.
The other class, represented by 81 del
egates, selected by selfappointed Con.
mittee, in Convention April %, believe
that the control of the State should re'
main in the hands that have controlled it
for the last ten or twelve years. They
believe that 90 per cent. of the people
should pay for the support of the State
government, and one per cent. receive all
the benefit of the expenditures, and the
fostering care and protection it affords.
They believe that the interests of citi-
zenship should bow to party domination.
They believe that the farmers should re-
main stuped in ignorance of the science
of government, and leave it to wiser
heads and more depraved hearts. What
interest, say they, can farmer have in
politics, save holding some Office?
So it.reeolves itself into a fierce battle
of the never ending war between the
capitalist, speculator and their tools on
the one side, and the producing classes on
the other.
Let no man be deceived. The fight is
not against I1llman, bus against the fun.

tutions; and all citizsns, no matter what
thsir profession may be, who have the
welfare of the people apd the perpetufty

they belong.
1t Is silly nonsense to talk about di-
vision m the Democratic party or danger
to white supremacy in the State from the

YoutIlfal Evangelist.
From The INuc0n ItiegTfph.

The Methodists of Macon are much
interested in the remarkable abilities
displayed by Frederick Cook, q boy
evangelist from Carroll County, who has
been in Macon for several days.
TIE boy, although only l3 years of
age, is we'll enough versed in the Scrip.
lures and has sufficient command of
language to deliver prayers and sermons
of high order. In spite Of his tender
age, young Cook has fine, resonant
voice, and his sentences are as gramati.
cally correct and as pointed in meaning
as could be expected from a graduate Of
a theological seminary. There is a fer.
vor and an earnestncss about his speak
ing that shows unmistakably tho genuine
ness of the power that inspires him.
The young evangelist is no taller than
the ordinary boy at thirteen years of age,
and his face is rather thin aud pale. Lis
hair and eyes are light, but the broad,
high forehead indicates an unusually
powerful mental organization. There is
nothing about this wonderful boy that
seems precocious or unnatural; he is
full of religious feeling, and tells what
he feels as freely and unconstrainedly as
though he were conversing with his play.
mates on any ordinary subject. His
voice is admirably adapted 10 speaking
ing and has musical but manly ring to
it that is pleasant to hear.
Young Cook came to Macon on Mon
day with Rev. Mr.. Anthony, who is as.
sisting Rev. B. F. Bredlove in the revival
services as the First Street Methodist
Church. The boy has led in prayer sew
eral times during the services there this
week, and has conducted afternoon SER
vices for the younger members of the
congregation, through all Of which bis
ability and zeal more than Offset the i'm.
preston of novelty created by his childish
personality. He returned to his home in
Carroll County yesterday, but is expect
ed to be here again next week.
This remarkable boy is the son of
Carroll County farmer Of humble means,
and his attainments seem to have been
almost entirely Independent of his sur.
rouudings. He is said to know the
Bible almost entirely by heart, but there
is nothing parrot.like in his utterances
which are stamped with originality
throughout. He has been preaching
about a year. A kind hearted lady
recently asked him if be would not like
to attend the theological seminary. ~

Hurrah for Old Joe.

ATLANTA, April 26.-Probably never
before since the war has there been such
gathering of Confederate veterans as was
here to take part in the Memorial e1er.
cises to. day. The special attraction was
the presence of q large number of Ex'
Confederate generals. Among these
we're Joseph Z. Johnston and Z. Kirby
Smith, two of the three full generals
Beauregard having been compelled te
decline at the last minute, Major Gen
P. M. B Young, Brig Gems. Tige Ander
son, L. J. Gsrtrell, R. J. Henderson,
Lawton, Bell, Robertson, Sorrell, Vance
M. j. Wright, W. S. Walker and others
The Hon. j. &C. Black, of Augusta,
was orator of the day. To-days, exercis
es consisted of laying the corner stone
for the Confederate Veterans Home by
Grand Master Davidson, of the Masonic
Grand Lodge of Georgia. These exer
cises we're attended by the visiting gene
rails and veterans.
at o'clock the oration of MIR. Black
was delivered in De Gives Opera House
From here the procession of veterans
from all parts of Georgia and from other
States, military companies, and carriages
containing Confederates and mem.
bers of the Soldiers Memorial Associa
ton marched to Oakland Cemetery
where the graves Of the Confederate dead
were strewn with flowers. The ceremo
nies here were brief.
A special incident of the day was the
pild)v eutbusi8stic recentiOn piyen Gen
Johnston by his old soldiers
When his carriage appeared there was
shout, and probably t7e thousand vet
erans crowded around to see ''Old Joe ;
He and Ger. Kirby Smith were in the
same carriage. The old soldiers cut the
horses loose and dragged the carriage uF
and down for several blocks, which were
crowded with veterans. There were
many touching incidents during tie rid:
illustrating the deep love of the old sol
diers for their great leader.
