SAM on POLITICS.
The Ini,nitable, Sam Jones Talks About
the Farmers Alliance.

Especial to Augusta Chronicle
ATLkSE4- --c.:;yu C: June l2.-sam Jones
LIN Atlanta to-day sa ztssa,this this morning
talked in a characteristic way ae.sss
several matters of interest. When
asked whether the Alliancemen of
Texas were likely to go into a third
party, he said: 1.-The Alliancemen are
not paying much attention to anything
but what their leaders tell them. What
ever their leaders advise they will be
apt to do. Ifthe leaders in the Southern
States advise them to go into third
party, that they will do. The Alliance
has my sympathy" continued the
Reverend Sam, "but it won't get there.
I said in a public speech in Mississippi
that every time the old parties played
the rascal the farmers play the fool,
and the fool gets left every time. The
Democrats will win, ! reckon.n
"Ifthey get the whiskey crowd they'll
get the money, and money makes the
mare go. wish to God both the Re-
publican and Democratic parties were
wiped from the face Of the earth, but
I'll never see it. The Republicans may
die out, but when the last day comes
they'll be burning Democrats. The
Democratic party has the principles
that are at the foundation, and what
ever good there is in the other parties
comes from them. Old Thomas Jeffer-
son was a broad minded man. But
Jetfersonian Democracy is one thing in
one place and another thing in another
place."
Speaking of the sub-treasury plan, he
said:
"Pin it's ears back and grease it and
it's the easiest thing in the world to
swallow. Grease it with green grease, 1
mean. That makes things look right,
I saw a fellow the other day talking
about the whiskey business and he had
a card the size, of an envelope. On it
he had in big letters WRONG" He
held it up and said: '.You see that?
You see wrong on it" Then he put a
SIS bill over it and held it up. "Now,' he
said, "you can't see it. Its there, but
you can'tsee it. ."'That, "continuedSam,
is the way it is with heap of things
put money in it and its ali right. Sena-
tor George is talking more good sense
to the farmers than any man [ know" !"

Won the First Honor.


Miss Grace McHardy Jones, grand
daughter of Mai. L. J. and Mrs. Jones,
graduated at st. Marys school in
Raleigh, n. c., on the 1lth June, 1891,
taking the second honor, the salutatory,
and only missed getting the first honor,
the valedictory, by seven-tenths of one
mark. She had only attended two
annual sessions of said school while her
class mates had been in attendance
several more sessions. She was un-
able to return promptly at the begin
ming Of each session, and in that way
lost the benefit Of two or three months
instruction which would more than en-
able her to have made up the seven
tanths of one mark, which she lacked
OF getting the first honor.
For the last several months, the presi-
dent Of said school has reported to her
mother that Miss Grace was leading
the whole school at every examination
by taking the highest mark Of any girl
in school. She has also continued to
devote considerable attention to.her
speciality, drawing and painting, and is
developing and improving her natural
talent in that direction beyond the eX-
pectation of her friends.
It affords the editor of The Herald
and News great pleasure to have it in
his power to publish the above fiatter-
ing account Of Miss Grace's progress
and success in perfecting her education,
especially as it will be very gratifying
to her many school mates and friends

ers, consisting Of Messrs. Henry Hoof,
