ALIsM.
Defining NatiOnaliBm according 20 that
which will doubtless be the outcome Of
tho various socialiatlc, educational ton
doncles Of the present time, we may say
that II will be condition In which the
industries and activities upon which
large numbers Of people depend will be
conducted on a large and systematic
scale, with the benefits, the profits and
the labor distributed among the workers
and consumers IN a just and equitable
proportion.
It's not pretended that this definition
includes all the theories or aims Of per
aOns calling themselves Nationalist. But
the definition will be accepted as q par
tlal statement, and II IL be regarded az
unfinished or Juvenile NatlonalIsm, II
has at least the merit Of possibilities for
extension.
Claiming merely this much for Ma
tiOnalism II will seem clear to most peo-
pie that II Is the inevitable Of the not
hopeless future.
OF the large enterprises already In
some essentials natlonallzed the railroads
and telographs are conspicuous, and that
they will not long hence follow che pos
tal service, Is as clear as the MONDAY
sun. With these purposes attalued, and
with their leverage as object lessons, the
progress toward further systemlzatlOn,
economy and good service In other busi-
ness will be accelerated.
Following unacceptable prevalent ten
dencles the farmers have gone into or
ganization. Their consultings beget
handshakings with the laborers Of the
cities, mines and factories, who have long
been asking many things never to be
given for the asking by themselves.
The homeless urban laborers are being
reinforced by their rural brethren. They
are becoming hopeful. They will become
invinCible.
Besides the nOn-resistabls tendency 10
TO organization the farmers are being
borne along by those other reslstless ten
denotes, consolidation and corporation;
these they are applying to their own
distinctive occupation. Already there is
fruit In q measure known as the sub
treasury bill, introduced In tho last Con-
gresa.
Briefly stated this measure looks 10 the
establishment Of warehouses for the ator-
age Of farm products, where they may
await the call Of the real demand OF con"
sumptlon-not TO be shufiled of 40 now
by gamblers, according TO the fiction Of
supply and demand. The depOsltor, II
he needs or wishes, may obtain an ad-
vance payment, percentage Of value Of
tho deposit The advance payment will
come directly from q government sub
treasury, the produce remaining ware
housed as security against the time Of
sale. Another and by far the most Inn
portant feature Of this bill Is It's provision
foE flexible currency corresponding to
che amount necessary for handling and
marketing the products OF the farm,
swelling with the increase Of produce FOL.

products upon which IL ls based are con-
sumed.

THURSDAYS STORM.
Two Deaths Result From the Light
ning's Flash.

nIngS Flash.
MTLLEN, GA, Aug. 4.-Our neighbor-
hood was visited by terrific thunder and
rain storm, causing considerable damage,
and in one instance the loss of a life.
Walker Bargeron, colored laborer on w.
o. Wadley's plantation, near Rogers, while
stacking fodder was struck and killed by
lightning. while four others standing near
were severely shocked. The fodder stack
upon which Bargeron was standing was
fired by the lightning and con-
sumed. A few miles from where
this occurred, two mules belonging
to j. Fl. Daniel were killed by the lightning,
while Texas pony belonging to J. J. Pope
was also struck, but was evidently too
much for even an electrical bolt, for in a
short while he recovered from it and with
the exception Of red eye" was none the
worse for his experience.
In the same stable or lot in which these
mules were killed were fifteen others, none
OF which were hurt, which is remarkable,
as all OF them were in very small place
and close together.
KILLED BY LIGHTNING.
SYLvANIA, GA, Aug. 1.-The dwelling
house of Wallace Williams, a negro living
on Nick Odum's place in this county, was
struck by lightning Thursday afternoon
and almost torn to pieces. He had three
grown boys in the house at the time. One
of them, Anderson was killed outright,
another, Henry, is said TO be dying, and the
third one, Lock, is badly injured. The house
was set on fire by the electric bolt, but was
put out. Two of the boys struck were
preachers. and the other was an exhorter.

THE APPoRrIoNMENr PLAN.

Action by the Committee Postponed

ATLANTA, GA. Aug. 1.-THE joint COM
mittee on congressional apportionment met
this afternoon. Just previous to this meet
ing the Senate committee, acting separately,
had adopted the report OF the subcommit-
tee. There was some informal discussion.
The House wing = m" 7r'71ittee was not
so ready as the Senate wing t, ratify the
plan of the subcVn4-.l..ee.
Mr.. Whitfield of Baldwin was particu-
larly opposed to the map for the new Sixth
district. The whole matter was finally
postponed, without further definite action.

TWO PERTINENT QUESTIONS.

The Outcome of the Alliance Sensation
Watched With Interest.
ATLANTA, GA, Aug. 14.-WiK the al.
lance exchange have J. Q. Wynn, ex-busi-
ness agent, arrested? VIII the alliance
exchange sue J. o. Wynn's bondsmen.
These are the two pertinent questions in
the alliance exchange sensation. The bonds
men will not pay one cent unless forced to
do SO by a court OF justice.
This reason is that Col. Peck
misrepresented the business affairs of the
exchange at the time the bond was given.
On Oct. 30, 1890, President Peck said the
exchange had made $4,000 during the fiscal
year, whereas it lost $1,000 The other rea-
son isithat Wynn was short when the bond
was given.
What the exchange will do will be
watched with interest. It is believed by
some here that there is more "rottenness
to be unearthed. Mr.. Wynn can probably
tell more than he he's already made public.

In the Senate

2 Upon motion of Senator Culver the Sem
ate to-day reconsidered the House bill by
Mr.. Whitfield of Baldwin to require keep
Iers of public gins to keep a record of their
work.
CITY COURT JURORS TO RECEIVE 81.
The bill by Mr.. Clifton of Chatham, to
amend section $40 of the Code 80 that iu-
lrors in the city courts shall receive the same
compensation as superior court Jurors, was
passed.
The Senate passed a substitute for the
resolution authorizing the governor during
the continued illness Of the attorney general
TO employ an assistant in that Office. The
salary is not to exceed 50, 200.
A bill by Senator Galloway passed to
amend section 3409 Of the Code SO that the
officers Of the various mutual aid and in
surance lodges are made agents of the
same. The object is to give the state courts

The bill by Senator Warren to amend
section 1885 of the Code SO as to make it a
a misdemeanor to sell Intoxicating liquor
on Sunday. in any house, whether open or
not, was passed.
The Senate passed the bill by Mr.. Ryals
of Chatham providing that trainmen
should not be worked more than twelve
consecutive hours in twenty-four. Excep-
tions are made as to short runs and acct
dents The bill, before it was introduced,
was approved heartily by Cecil Gabbett
and Mr.. Starr Of the Central management.
BILLS PASSED.
Quite a number of other local bills were
passed. Among them were:
By Senator GilI-To amend section 616
ID Of the Code. so that the three preceding
subsections shall apply also to new roads to
be opened
TEN-GALLoN LIQUOR BILL.
Senator Vincent introduced bill to-day.
It is to amend the law, passed at this ses-
sion which prohibits the sale of alcoholic
liquors within three miles of any church or
schoolhouse in the state, except in incorpo-
rated towns aud cities. Mr.. Vincent's bill
is to provide that the law already passed shall
not apply to the sale of such liquor in orig
igal package Of not less than ten gallons by
the manufacturer thereof. This is in the
interest of the distllleries. There was
already United States law providing that
the liquor must be sold at the distilleries.
Then the new state law prohibited the sale
there. This practically conhscated a great
deal Of property invested in this way. Sem
ator Nincent's bill is to allow the distilleries
TO sell liquor at the dis;ilIeries in packages
OF not less than ten gallons

ATLANTA KICKING.
The Delegates to Athens claim The
Were Snubbed.

The Delegates to Athens claim They
Were Snubbed.
ATLANTA, GA, Aug. 1.-THE maddest
lot of delegates that Atlanta has seen in
a long time were those coming back from
the State Agricultural Society in Athens.
They say they were snubbed outrageously.
Commissioner Nesbitt is a conservative
man, but he voiced the sentiment Of the
convention to-day in some very plain talk.
ut was shameful. 1t was a great chance
for Athens, but they refused to take advan-
tage of it. The convention was
ignored, and given to understand that
they were tolerated rather than well
coined. The city, as city, gave them no
recognition whatever. No arrangements
were made for receiving or housing the del
egates, and most of them being entire stran-
gers we're put to great Inconvenience in OBJ
tanning food and shelter. Athens gave the
society the GOLD shoulder, aud l don't think
the society will forget it,"
THEY ARE ALL KICKING.
The kicking is not confined to few men,
bers. They all feel that the society was
sighted and went home in a bad humor
Apropos of the convention, Col. Waddell
was chairman of the plug hat" caucus
the mansion caucus"-over which an ALI
ance sentiment was so thoroughly aroused
some time ago. That meeting, of which
the colonel was not only a member, but
actually the presiding genius, grew out of
the opposition to Col. Livingston. That
was the motive aud spirit att Athens. OF
all the paradoxical events in Georgia poll
tics is the one that Col. Waddell
was nominated by Col. Livingston
and Col Livingston's influence elected him.
The story is that Col. Waddell discovered a
short while ago that he was a devout ad-
herent of Col. Livingston's; that he Col.
WaddelD had no longer any sympathy with
the governors fight. and in short, that he
repented and humbled himself, and most
summary transferred his allegiance. This
great change was duly emphasized and
thoroughly understood at Athens, and the
Livingston alliance faction accepted Col.
Waddell and elected MIN.

COLUMBUS. GA. Aug 14.-There is a
lively stir here tonight over developments
about the public building site. 1t was an
nounced this morning that the government
had closed the trade for the Barfield corner,
but tonight It is learned from a reliable
source that the entire matter has been held
up until the return of the Secretary of
the Treasury to Washington. This
action was taken by the acting
secretary on account of kilograms received
from Columbus parties stating that wide
spread dissatisfaction existed with the site
selected. So there is to be a sharp fight over
the location after all. Some big deals In
real estate here hinge upon the site selected
and powerful syndicate is being formed
to build new hotel. opera
