bis free pass are "oaptenptible." So
thought many of his last summer criti-
cisms of free passes, which constituted so
large part of his campaign thunder.
We mention these things because ne
think the Governor guilty of notorious
inconsistency, and not because We spe.
cially object to an officer accepting free
pass when offered to him. We insist,
however, that what was wrong for Gov.
Richardson or his predecessors to do is
just as wrong in Gov. Tillman, and that
what Gov. Tillman can do with a clear
conscience could be just as honestly done
by his many illustrious predecessors.

GEORGIA. AND KANSAS.

Comparisons are frequently more forci.
BILE than arguments, and more strikingly
bring to view the real situation. A COM
parison of this kind is offered between
the article in last weeks INrELL1eENcER
taken from the Stcte Alliance, the official
organ of the Georgia Alliance, and the
clipping given below. 1t will be remem.
bered that in the article published last
week, headed "Third Party in Georgia,"
some characteristic sentences like these
occurred: "Unless a great change takes
place in public sentiment every influence
combined cannot keep the farmers of
Georgia from, going into new party. 1t
seems to US inevitable" "We see but
little chance of fGeorgia going Democratic
in 1892" "There is mighty upheaval OF
the people in favor of new party"
"Our farmers say that the Western Alli-
ance men have stood by their every
promise, and they are going to do their
part as WE'LL" Similar sentences might
be quoted. Now. look on that, and then
on this, remembering Kansas has been
considered the faithful of the faithful in
Alliance matters, and is the stronghold
| of the third party:
A Topeka, Kansas, special says returns
received by the Alliance executive COM
mittee from sub.Alliauces which were
asked to pass judgment on the work done
by the Cincinnati convention are far
from encouraging to the Peoples Party
politicians. 1t is known that twenty. FIVE
sub-Alliarces have repudiated the third
party movement. Fifteen of these have
reported to the State Alliance and ten to
the Republican central committee. The
Cloud County Alliance has adopted the
following resolution:
"Whereas, the South was not repre-
sented in the Cincinnati convention; and
whereas, we believe the third party will
disrupt the Republican party to the
benefit of the Democratic party; there
| fore be it
Resolued, That ne abandon the third
party to return to our past afiliation."
These resolutions, it is said, have q
double significance because Cloud County
| is the home of Senator Wheeler, the only
Alliance member of the Senate, and has
always been considered q peoples party
stronghold.
1.-THE Georgians really to 60 into
a third party, which ne are not ready to
believe, what severe rebuke the Kansas
people have given them !
We advise our friends across the Sa-
vannah to stick to the grand old Democ-
racy,. in which their Carolina neighbors
will set them wholesome example.

NATURES WONDERS.
The Strange Intelligence of Brainless
 Creatures.

The Strange Intelligence of Brainless
 Creatures.
 It is not often that we find animals giving mutual aid, except in the line of their domestic duties. To meet with instances of helpfulness in creatures so low in the scale as are the ''sea-urch- ins" on our coast is really remarkable. Prof. Elder, of Colby university, com municates to London Nature what he observed amoug the echini of Casco bay.
 Among the specimens brought back from one excursion were four of the common echini. The last one taken had been left exposed to the sun some time before IL was nutIced and properly cared for.
 These four animals were placed alone in a small aquarium, and. as we wished to study their action, each was turned which every naturalist is familiar, and three of the captives slowly rose on edge, and then deliberately lowered themselves into the normal position.
 The fourth, the injured one, made much less rapid progress; all it could achieve was a slight tipping on its disk. The two nearest echini, from s;x to eight inches distant, now moved up and stationed themselves on opposite sides of their disabled comrade.
 Fastening their tentacles for pull, they steadily raised the helpless urchin in the direction in which it had started. As soon as it was possible, one of the helpers moved underneath the edge of the disk on the aboral [backl side, and when the half-turn was accomplished, the other took station on the oral side, gradually moving back as the object of so much solicitude was gently lowered to the position nature had made most convenient.

Medieval Mummery.

The investiture of clergyman with the rank of bishop in England is attend ed by some curious survivals of medi- eval mumery. When the bishop of Pe- terborough was ordained recently he rapped his pastoral staff on the door of the church and waved his hand for the purpose of exercising all evil spirits from the interior. Then when he en- tered the sacred edifice he was preceded by a chaplain bearing a crown and marched up the broad aisle arrayed in an antique cape of white satin elabor- ately and ornately trimmed. On his head he wore hitter of white satin covered with red trimmings of silk braid
