Keeping Count.

Robert Slmson, professor of mathematics

ment OF humanity, says the Detroit Free Press

The Large stay-at-Home Vose.

In the state election Of 1890 ia Georgia
there were los, 1865 democratic votes cast for
Gov. Northen. According to recent CEN
sus bulletin there were In the state at that
time 2l9,094 white voters. At least 95 per
cent. of these 219. 094 voters were democrats .
On q rough estimate IL may be said that
10000 Of the 179, 900 colored voters in the
state voted for Northen, which would re-
duce the actual white vote in 1890 to about
95 900.
These figures show that there was In 1890
q very large stay-at-home democratic vote
in this state. The fact that the democrats
fight for several campaigns caused a very
large number Of good men to regard it as a
foregone conclusion that the democracy
would win, with or without their votes; so
they did not take the trouble to 90 to the
polls. They had been satisfied with the
democratic state government, their neigh
bors had been satisfied, there had been
nothing to cause any apprehension Of
trouble. So they staid at home.
But now that the third party has pre-
sented itself, there is necessity for these
| stay-at-home voters to be reached and
brought out. Not that the supremacy of the
democracy is seriously threatened; but 1t is
the duty Of every public spirited man to re-
ouke with his ballot the spirit of reckless
ness that has characterized the third party
movement in this state. 1t is the duty of
every man who loves his home, his family
and his country to protest with his ballot
power in the government at Washington.
Il is the duty OF every Georgian to resent
with his ballot the imputatIon cast by the
Republican party in the last congress that
he is not compeen to govern his state and
elect his congressman. There should be no
stay -at-home voters this year.

A Timely Legend.

That fear Of cholera kills more people than
the cholera itself was illustrated by a story
told by an old German citizen yesterday, says
the Cincinnati Commercial Gazette MANY
ears ago. while the cholera was raging in
parts of Germany and extending daily its bane
full influence, an old doctor, taking an evening
stroll outside the gates of his town, saw coming
toward him a horrible object It's form was
human, but its aspect was mass of corrup-
ton.
VINO are your" asked the doctor.
81 am the cholera.
Where are you RoingS"
81 am going to that town.
The doctor terrified, pleaded and begged for
the monster to cnange its route, but to no pur-
pose It's road led through t.e town and into
the town it must go. But to compromise with
the good old doctor the cholera promised not to
kill more than five people in the tom. Next
m lrning the pnysicl an was called 10 patient
whom he found to have the cholera The cases
multiplied hourly and con formation spread
among the people of the city and all those who
could get away did so. There were not five.
but there were 500 deaths in the town After
the cholera had subsidized the doctor in his
walks again met the cholera specter and up-
braided 1t for not having kept its word with
him. Said the cholf RAJ
II swearI have kept my promise-not killed
more than five OF your fellow citizens. The
others died of fear"

The Campaign in Florida.


The democrats Of Florida do not appear
to have become fully interested yet In the
campaign. They have had q number Of en-
thusiastc meetings in different parts Of the
state, but the work they have done thus far
Is not equal to the demands OF the situation.
They have hard fight before them, because
the third party people are aggressive and
the republicans are extremely active.
While there Is no reason to doubt that they
will carry the state, the fact should not be
lost sight of that they VIII not have . walk
over" by any means.
The democratic meeting at Tallahassee on
Friday was an enthusiastic one. There
ought to be many like it In other
parts of the state. What is needed
In Florida is a campaign that will
make every democrat in the state . worker.
The work the democrats can do in their re-
speotive neighborhoodS is as effective as
that which is done by the stump speakers
and the newspapers.
Some Of the best public speakers In the
country are to be found in the Democratic
party In Florida. Every one of them ought
to be on the stump advocating the doctrines
OF the Democratic party and pointing out
the evils that would follow the enactment
OF the force bill and the necessity for re-
forming the tariff.
The defeat Of the Democratic party in
Florida would work . vast amount OF In
jury to that stats. We do nos, OF course.
think that the combined forces OF she third
party and Republican party oan overcome
the democracy, but We want to see demo-
cratic victory Of which Florida democrats
will be proud.

No Crane on the Door.

NO CrApo on the DOOr.
George William Curtis was a man promi-
nent In politics snd letters, widely known
and universally esteemed. Yet the account
Of his funeral sent out by the news agencies
consisted Of the bare announcement that he
had been buried at West Brighton. 8. l.
that the interment had been strictly private
and that there were neither flowers nor
palI-bearers. There is more in that simple
announcement than appears at the first
glance
Mr.. Curtis was genuine reformer. He
advocated reforms that he believed TO be
for the benefit Of humanity. And it may
be said that he lived and died up to" his
belief in such reforms as he advocated.
For reform In funeral services was one Of the
changes Of custom that he urged by precePt
while alive and by example after death.
That IS the meaning of the simple notice
sent out In the press dispatches. In accord
ance with Mr.. Curtis wish his family had
given him burial IN accordance with what
he thought funeral should be-plain, SIM
pie, quiet, inexpensive aud with no paradlng
Of grief on the part Of the afflicted, There
was even no Grape on the door. Only
three carriages followed the hearse
to the cemetery, and in these carriages
we're none but the immediate relatives OF
the deceased. The usual signs OF mourning
were all omitted. IL was. Ia fact, the first
funeral OF q prominent man under funeral
reform.
Il Is needless to say that Mr.. Curtis was
prompted to request suen funeral after
mature consideration. And bis action needs
no defense. II was emlnently sensible, and
the example set il iG to be hoped, Will be
followed in the cases OF other prominent
ment until the exception becomes the rule.
As the majority Of the funerals are now
conducted they are a mockery OF the dead
and a hardship to the living. John Doe,
the coal HEAVIER, and the husband Of q
washer woman, dies. The widow is left al
most penniless, II not quite so. But the
dead GOAL HEAVIER must he laid in a walnut
casket, driven to the cemetery In a silver
mounted hearse drawn by beautiful horses
and followed by dozen or more carriages
containing every relative and friend of the
deceased that can be drummsd up. All OF
this, even though the living washerwo
be compelled TO slave over her wash tub for
years to pay for the empty aud meaningless
pageant And at the grave the services are
prolonged while the attendants stand with
uncovered heads in sunshine or rain, In hot
weather or cold, as the case may be, some
times with results that make another
funeral necessary.
The object Of funeral reform, as Mr.. Curtis
understood and advocated 1t, Is TO show due
respect and reverence for the dead and at
the same time regard the rights and health
Of the living. Respect for departed friends
or relatives is not to be measured by the
length or magni6cence Of the funeral pro-
cession. Genuine grief is not best expressed
by hatchments, and Grape cloth wells and
bandages which impair the health Of the
wearers. 1t is in the heart that grief sits,
and an excess Of outward symbols OF mourn
ing discredits the sentiment that prompts it's
wearing.

American Colonel and Roman Becea,


Col. 81. of Baltimore settled in Rome some
years since says the Editors Drawer of Harpe,'s
Magazine for September. and for a time re-
ceived his mail at the bank, to which he always
walked morning and afternoon, passing en-
route through the PiaxZi di Spagna where a
venerable begRar sat, and to whom he gave
aims each time he passed. But after a few
few months knowledge of Roman beg ardom
he suddenly ceased to drop the accustomed cop
per into the extended hat. Whereupon the beg
gar brought suit for 800 lire, which he claimed
to have loaned to Col. H, producing at the same
time two witnesses to the fact. The victim OF
this trick lost no time in consulting native
lawyer, who remarked that, while he had no
doubt Of the utter fraudulency of the claim,
still the testimony of the beggar and two eye
witnesses must stand in the absence of any re-
butting evidence but that II the colonel would
spend half the sum involved he would under
take to defeat the stratagem Outraged as ne
was, the colonel concluded to accede to the at
torney's terms, and when the case came up and
the beRRar's two witnesses had testified to hav-
ing seen the beggar lend the money to the de-
PENDANT on certain day, the latter's lawyer
promptly called two witnesses who made oath
that they had seen Col. H. pay the money back
