sit is certain that they will place in the
field a candidate who will make the race on
the republican platform, including the
tariff feature. The district has about 5000
republican voters out of total of 2O,OOO.
This would not be enough to elect. but we
count on the fact that the interest OF the
district is strongly in line with the protec-
ton idea to make up the difference. The
biggest industry in the district is the marble
quarrying business. The tariff protects 1t
at the rate of 40 cents per foot. Other val
liable minerals are also mined in that terri
tory, and all of them are protected.
PICKETT NOT REPUBLICAN.
Col. Darnell denied that he regarded
Thaddeus Pickett as a republican. What he
had said was: THAT if no republican candi-
date should run he would prefer straight
democrat TO all independent democrat, a
hybrid, a political pterodactyl, reptile
with feathers He declined to say posi-
lively that he would be a candidate, but
admitted that the time might come when
he would be in the hands of his friends.
He emphatically denied the statement
printed some time ago that he entered into
an agreement with President Harrison or
with any one else to become a candidate for
congress from the Ninth district as a con-
dition precedent to his appointment as

Helen's journey was but a brief one-six mile
stones of life only she passed and then her little
feet faltered and she was lifted above this dusty
highway forever. No faint Of worldliness had
dimmed her perfect innocence. With all the
blessed purity of a little child her soul winged
its way to its creator, and as little child she

absence. Surely there is comfort in this thought
that she is spared the tolls and tears OF

the fragrant memory of her sweet unselfi5h-
ness and the blessed hope that their darling has
only gone before" l.. u. l.

The Knights Have Parade and Mass
Meeting.

Meeting.
BRUNSWICK, GA, May 22.-To-night has
been memorable one with the labor or
CARNATIONS of Brunswick. Other cities have
had demonstrations but it is safe to say that
no place of the size of Brunswick celebrated
in such a manner. At o'clock seventeen
assemblies, 1000 strong, all organized under
the seal of the Knights of Labor, formed in
line on G street, and headed by the Atlantic
Band, proceeded down New Castle street,
and up Monk to L'Ariso opera house, where
speeches were to be made by Brunswick
orators on the nine hour question, lien law
and convict lease system. Standing room
was in demand and hundreds of people
could not gain admittance.
ON THE STAGE.
On the stage were many representatives
of the Knights of Labor, business men,
ministers and the chosen orators Of the oc-
casion, among whom were ex-Mayor Col
son, Mayor Spear, Revs n. s. Cook and
Porter, Editors Branham and Kent, j. j.
Moriarity, A. G. Shannon, j. r. Raves,
Organizer Livingston, Edwin Brobston, j.
E. Dart, L. Loeb, George Walker,
C. L. Deming and II. II. Mccall
lister. Speech-making commenced at
s o'clock sharp. and the large audience
remained seated until II O'Clock, paying
compliments to the orators. All the adj
dresses were strong, and treated the sub
jects thoroughly. Editor Branham venti-
lated his ideas on child wage-earners. Rev.
Mr. Cook and orators Dunn, Robinson,
ColsoD, Porter, Brobston and Dart were
each enthusiastically cheered. Brunswick's
knights are thoroughly banded, working
earnestly but quietly, and will carry their
point as 90 nine hours for days work.
The parade was viewed by hundreds of
spectators, and was half a mile long.
