Measured and Found wanting


Mr.. U. s. Hall, who was president of the
Missouri alliance, was measured by the
alliance yardsticK on Wednesday and found
wanting. And so was Lecturer McAllister
Of Mississippi Mr.. Hall was deposed from
the presidency of the Missouri alliance, aud
Mr.. McAllister was expelled from the or
der. Both opposed the sub-treasury plan.
But McAllister b!acked the eyes of DR..
Macune. Having done that, be doesn't
feel so badly perhaps over his loss Of mem,
bership in tee alliance.
Mr.. Hall was not expelled from the Mis-.
souri, alliance. He has a large following in
it, and it would not have bssn an easy mat
ter TO expel him. The views he holds, how
ever, are not those Of majority of tho
order. He is a conservative man, and
thinks the alliance ought TO confne itself to
the objects for which it was originally
organized. The alliance of his state has
gone away beyond these objects, aad,
therefore, it had no further use for his serv-
ices.
His successor, Mr.. Leverett Leonard is a
radical. He not only favors the SUBJ
the Ocala platform, but, also, the Peoples
party. He does not believe the alliance
can get what it demands from the Demo-
cratic or the Republican party and mus.
look, therefore, to the Peoples party. 1t is
predicted that the Peoples party, will have
a strong support in Missouri, and it would
not be at all surprising if it should gain a
foothold In other states which are strongly
democratic and In which it now has no or
ganization. There are signs which indicate
as much. and it is not the part of wisdom to
ignore them.
The majority of allisncemen believe that
all the demands of the Ocala platform
ought to be granted. To many of the de-
mands the Democratic party has no objec-
ton. To few 1t ha'. aud these few it will
never favor. IL cannot consisten ly do so.
II the alliance insists upon them, therefore,
it will have to look elsewhere for support
for them

SWindlinq q. Taxnn.

Maj. Sumpter Mcbride is a Texas gentleman
says Sifitnos, who has been spending the sum
mer in New York. a few days ago he went to
the landlord of his hotel in a state of great ex
element. He said: The rascality that goes
on in big city like New York is Just incredible.
aud the way strangers are taken in is perfectly
scandalous I've been here three weeks, and
without knowing it, have been swindled every
day" How did it come abouts" asked the
landlord You see there is lemonade stand
near the hotel and every day I've been getting
one or more glasses of lemonade" Wasn't
II real len onade?' The lemonade itself wes
all right. I'm not complaining of the quality
Of the lemonade, but the way the fellow
VINO sells 1t gouged me-" How did he
come TO cheat you?''. Easiest thing in the
world. You see, he has sign up: Lemonade
3 & cents That means X he squeezes half a
lemon In a glass it is cents, and If he squeezes
a whole lemon in it is cents. I didn't know
this, and the man who keeps the lemonade
stand, seeing that l was from Texas asked me
cents, aud when / kicked he pointed TO his
sign and said. and are 5 cents, and I've been
paying cents fer a Scent glass of lemonade

She was Not Allowed TO suffer.

1t was a pathetic little incident. or rather the
story which grew out of the incident, says the
Chicago Times. II was on a North Side cable
car The woman got aboard as the corner OF
Randolph and la Sale streets. She was await
ing the car, holding IN her arms "a infant whose
pony little face was scarlet from the heat of
the merclless sun. She was a slender. careworn
little woman, dressed in rusty black. with q
fudgy. BLACK bonnet on her head aud her bare
hands were wrinkled. and creased and caloused
IN way which told the story Of weary hours
spent over the washboard.
She wasn't so old, not over 50 or 81. TO all ap
pearances, and she had been a pretty little
woman once in q not obtrusive way. But she
wasfaded and she was hollow-eyed and anx-
ious The miserable-looking infant was restless
and whined continually
The conductor came along. The little woman
IN oiack YEARLY shifted the child 10 her left
arm and drew from her pocket a coin. Il was
a 50 80 gold piece The conductor reached for
1t; 1t slipped through his careless fingers A
PINCH, cllnk and 1t was gone, into the cable
slot Of course, though it might have fallen any
where else more naturally.
"Wot wuz dat. 8 MCKEE? Yen have TO pay

wes every cent had. II wasn't my fault it
dropped, sir. You dropped it,"
Come now, I'm onto you You fork over
another nickel, or III stop the CIR and you'll
have to git of, sees"
The little woman's face was filed with hor-
ror instead of the indignation which would
nave been natural. She started to explain,
but gentleman beside her said quietly to the
conductor Never mind. 1t was your fault
and that was o. 80 in gold Here is your
nickel Your number, l believe. is .057; your
stable ross will speak TO you when you reach
the limis barns
Then the conductor tried to explain, but he
couldn't. The little woman tesrfully thanke 1
the gentleman and said:
''lnst SO 80 was every cent had in the world
Baby Is 81 i'll in the city l was just taking him
out in the suburbs for few days. | had ar
ranged with good woman to have him cared
for, but now can only take him to the park for
the afternoon. -"
Half q dozen passengers had been listening
and the gentleman who had rebuked the con
ductor glanced around inquringly. Encour-
sgement he saw in every face, and when he
dropped two silver dollars into his hat and held
it out to the next man the hat didn't come back
for ten minutes. When it did the little woman.

Lending q Helping Hand.

Every where within the territory directly
or indirectly tributary TO Savannah, there
/ is very strong feeling in favor OF the
movement to induce the government TO
I make an appropriation Tor Savannah harbor
/ sufficiently large 70 complete TIE improve
/ ment which is 10 give Savannah channel
! from her wharves % the Sea tWenty-six
I fest deep The benefit which such channel
T would be to a large part Of the west aud
! south is fully understood Much larger
vessels would be attracted here, aud the
/ larger the vessels the lower the freight
I rates would be. And lower freight rates
/ would be adysntsgeou 10 every class of
citizsus, and especially to those who Guilt
vsts cotton.
And producers Of the west and iron manu-
factursrs Of Georgia, Alabama and Tennes-
see are beginning 70 regard Savannah as
their natural sesboard shipping point. But
i. would be impossible 70 enumerate all the
interests that would be helped by deeper
water in Savannah harbor. The simple
statement that the commerce Of the port
last year amounted to more than SIS, OOO.-
90 shows how great those interests are.
And they are growing rapidly.
There is now a channel which accommo~
dates vessels having a draft of little more
than twenty-oDe feet That is a very good
channel, but the tendency is toward larger
vessels. and hence the channels Of harbors
must be deepensd to accommodate them.
The members Of the legislature will have
the freedom of the city to-day. They are
the city's guests, and if the weather permits
the programme which has been arra1ged 70
be carried out, they viii have q much better
idea Of Ssvannah's Importance, and OF her
| promise of future commercial greatness,
| than when they left the states capital And
/ it Is important and even necessary that they
should have q correct impression Of the
states greatest seaport They are making
laws which affect her interests, and they
should be as well informed about these IN
terests IS II is possible for them to be.
Savannah expects great deal from this
visit Of the members Of the legislature. In
their legislative capacity they have already
done all they can, having passed a resolu-
ton asking congress for such aid as is
wanted, but they can do great deal more
IN their respective counties by creating a
public sentiment in favor Of liberal action
by the government. They can show 10 con-
gressmsn Of other states how deeply the
people OF Georgia are interested in the i'm
provement Of the Savannah hsrbor, and in
that way they can bring an influence TO
bear in behalf Of the improvement that will
be more effective than hundred speeches
This visit Of the legislature cannot help
being productive Of beneficial results
Many things win be discussed during the
visit, and the legislators will be made
acquainted with the views OF their con-
stituents in this part Of the state on ques-
tions Of vital importance.

an Inters sting Visit to Brurswick's
Oyster ana Vegetable Cannery.


Oyster and Vegetable Cannery.
BRUNSWICK, GA, Aug. 2l.-One of the
many profitable industries of Brunswick is
that of oyster canning. But at this season
of the year the oysters not being in a suit
able state for canning the immense plants
are supposed to be closed. There is one
however, which is never idle.
The NEWS correspondent visited this can
merry to-day and was initiated into the mys-
teries of canning vegetables, okra being
the subject worked on. Near the Canuery
is
AN oKRA FARM OF Az ACRES,
one solid mass of stalks about six feet
high, bearing profusely and furnishing
profitable employment for number Of
pickers, who are paid u certain amount per
bushel for gathering the vegetable.
From the stalks to the pickers, and from
the pickers to the works it travels. and Is
there cut into small pieces by scores of
women Cutters, who carefully Gull the hard
ends and overripe pods. These clippings
are then thrown into an immense boiler,
steamed slightly, taken out, and. hot and
steaming, placed into shallow watts, from
which they are scooped into the cans by
means of large spoons in the hands of
numerous white girls
Three pound cans are used altogether at
present and these are arranged in wooden
trays, each tray holding ten cans. After
being filed, several of these trays are passed
into an immense iron holder and the whole
immersed into a caldron of hot salt water,
which completes the filing of the cans.
From the salt bath the cans go to the cap
per, who dexterously soldiers the tops on
them, and from the capper they are placed
in an iron cage, lowered into steam chest
holding about 500 cans, the top bolted dowa
and steam turned on until
THE THERMOMETER REGISTERS ESQ
aud there remains until the contents of the
can are thoroughly cooked.
By derrick the cage is flied into vat
of cold running water until cool, when it is
taken out and stored away.
Sixty minutes is all that is required to
transfer the okra from the fields to the
cannery and prepare it perfectly for table
use.
ABOUT SIXTY HANDS ARE EMPLOYED
at this work, and $4,000 three-pound cans
of okra will be the result of their labors this
season.
Many people of both sexes and color are
employed by the company and their exper-
iment has proved profitable. The four and
half acres are expected to yield a net
profit of $3.50 per acre at the lowest esti-
mate.
Next season fruits will be canned as we'll
as vegetables, aud with this object iu view
the company has leased another cannery
and will operate both summer and winter.
