rntnra OF the Alliance.

Mr.. Ellington, president of the farmers
alliance Of this seate, says that the work Of
building up the alliance is going to be car
ried on theoretically, and that he believes
that within a very short time it will be a
stronger organization than it has ever been.
1t may not, he says, contain as many MEM
bers. but &c will make up in earnestnsss
what it will lack In numbers.
IL may be that Mr. Ellington is some
thing of a prophet. There is no reason, GER
tainly, why the farmers should not give
their support to the alliance. provided they
| can be assured that the effort will not be
| made again to drag 1t into politics. The
| great majority OF the farmers have made
up their minds not 20 connect themselves
with an organization that seeks 20 force
them into q political organization with
which they have no sympathy. They
the recent national campaign be-
cause Of the persistent efforts to
make them support the Peoples party. The
alliance was made part of that party by
its leaders. who thought they could control
1t. The leaders Of the Peoples party were
given assurances that they could depend
upon the alliance, and they publicly pro-
claimed that their party would carry Geor-
gia. They discovered they had been misled
when Gen. Weaver came to this state TO
make speeches.
Senator Ellington is q very earnest man
and believes that the course he is pursuing as
the president of the alliance Is for the best
interests OF the order, but there will be a
great many surprised people in Georgia il
he succeeds in gathering the fragments Of
the alliance together and making the order
anywhere near as strong as 1t once was.
He is too much of a partisan
to succeed IN that undertaking. He ia
member of the Peoples party and it would
be difficult, if not impossible, for him to
make the alliance anything but part OF
that party. The farmers are thoroughly
acquainted with his views and are not
likely to follow his lead in any considerable
numbers.
Why should they have monthly dues and
support alliance publications if the only
object is to strengthen the Peoples party?
They can support that party il they want
to without being taxed for the support Of
the alliance.
If the alliance should be conducted in
harmony with the principles upon which it
was organized the farmers would receive
some benefits from it, but if It is to be con-
tiDued as an annex Of the Peoples party
only those who believe In the demands OF
that party will have anything to do with it.
Let Mr.. Ellington announce that the alli-
ance in future will have nothing to do with
politics as an organization. and that it will
devote itself wholly TO those things which
will tend to improve the material condition
of the farmers, and he will have much more
success in restoring the alliance in this
state than he will by pursuing any other
course

Depew Got Nervous.

When Chauncey NJ Depew is nervous, he is
very nervous says the New York Sun. He de-
monstrated this fact before large number of
fashionably- attired men and women in the new
Colonial Club few nights ago. His apparent
inability to decline to make a speech had led
MIN into booking tive engagements for that
particular evening. He not only pledged himself
70 speak at the formal opening Of the Colonial
Club, but also contracted to pour taffy' over
the mead OF Presdent-elect Cleveland at the
chamber of commerce banquet. Mr.. Depew
evidently calculated that he could slip away
from the banquet for an hour, perform his task
at the club, and get back to Delmonico's before
the speaking there began. But things
dragged at the club, they frequently do in
entertainments which are purely social Mr.
Depew reached the club house at the appointed
hour ready 30 step right on the platform and
proceed with his part Of the programme He
was dlscohcerted when ne found that the com
mittee had not even begun the programme and
several minutes elapsed before various prelimi-
nary matters Of detail could be arranged. Two
formal speeches by officers of the club preceded
that OF Mr.. Depew's and one of them was rather
long. IL was while this second speech was being
delivered that the victim of too much popu-
larity began to tidgeJ. He held his watch in his
hand, moved uneasily in his chair crossed and
recrossed his legs and stared disconsolateIy at
the ceiling. And finally that inevitable sign of
an Intense nervous strain, a yawn, escaped him.
IL was relief to many of tire assembled club
people as well as to himself when his turn came
to speak.

Prof. A. D. Hopkins, of the West Virginia
University, 10 conducting some interesting
experiments that may prove of interest and
value to all owners Of pine-timbered lands.
For two years the owners Of pine lands in
Virginia and West Virginia noticed that an
unhealthy condition exists in certain of
their trees, and that the disease is what
might be classed an epidemic. 1t first shows
itself in the least valuable timber, the sold
field" pines and then spreads TO the more
valuable trees. The matter finally beoom-
ing alarming. the West Virginia University
was appealed to and Prof. Hopkins was as
signed to the work of locating the trouble,
and finding the cause and a
remedy. if possible. Close investiga-
ton showed that the rayaRer
was beetle, TO which he gave the name OF
the destructive pine beetle" BY corre-
spondence with other entomologists IN this
country and Europe he learned that there is
in certain district in Germany beetle
similar 70 the one he described, and that 10
attacks resinous trees somewhat like our
pine. In this same German DISTRICT how
ever, there 10 another insect that knocks
the beetles out" To find that insect being
the object OF the professors search, he went
20 Germany and secured number OF these
beetle killers, which he will experiments
with this fall and winter. If the expert
ment is successful he will obtain more from
Germany and set up an insect incubator at
the university to supply the demand that
would probably result.

check baby 10 Williamsburg as the z: 20 O'Clock
train was about to leave East Lib arty. a young
man rushed into the office and said he wanted
a baby carriage taken 70 Williamsburg. Agent
Dick got the check and was attaching it when
he noticed baby fast asleep inside. He asked
the man If he intended to leave the child there,
and he said he did.
His wife would be at the station In Wilkins
burg TO get the baby. When the train arrived
the young mother tripped up TO the baggage

said:

why the check. That baby came as bag
gage, and can't release 1t without a check"
Then there ensued an argument which lasted
for half an hour. Another train came along,
and the husband alighted. There was a hasty
explanation. The husband produced the check.
ana then started humbly to wheel away the
carriage. Il was said That the husband was

Death of Jaw Gould.

The career Of jay Gould is ended, and q
very remarkable career it was. From an
unknown and penniless youth he became
the, most conspicuous figure in Wall street.
and accumulate ed one OF the most colossal
fortunes Of modern times. The value Of
his estate will never be known probably,
but it has been frequently estimated to be
as much as 800, 900 900. He was not an
old man, only Sc an age at which most
men of wealth begin to think Of retiring
from business TO enjoy life.
Until q day OF two ago it was not known
that be was seriously ILL SO many reports
Of his illness and death had been circulated
in recent years for the purpose of influence
ing the stock market that It was not
believed that his illness was more than q
temporary indisposition from which he
would soon recover. He has never enjoyed
physician had been his constant companion.
Mr. Gould was an amiable and lovoble
man in his family circle and his private life
was above reprosoh, but in the great world
of business he was neither loved nor very
highly esteemed. he was a Spectator and
money -getter. His whole life was devoted
to the accumulation Of wealth, and If sue
cess brought him happiness be ought to
have been very happy, because
his success was phenomenal. The
cries Of distress, however, from the victims
OF his schemes for the requirement OF wealth
must have caused him some uneasiness. In
bis later years be strove To make the public
| forget his reputation as a railroad wrecker
| by building up the railroad properties IN
which he had controlling interest, and in
measure be succeeded but at no time was
he given credit for desire to promote any
other interests than his own.
| He possessed extraordinary ability, and
had it been used for the benefit Of his fell
low men be might have made a name for
himself that would have been remembered
and cherished for generations. He chose to
make wealth his object, and few will sorrow
at his grave, and fewer still will say the
world is better for the part he played in
life. Wall street will talk of him for
awhile and then turn its attention to some
new fnancier and speculator struggling for
supremacy there.

| The friends OF the Savannah, Americas
and Montgomery road take very hopeful
view Of the roads financial condition. The
report is given out that the roads earnings
are greatly in excess OF its expenses, aud
that it was forced into the hands Of a re-
ceiver because several northern banks, to
| whom the road is indebted, became pressing
| in their demand for their money.
1t is sincerely to be hoped that the receiv-
| ership will be only a temporary one, and
that the roads financial hackers will soon
be able to place it upon a sound financial
| basis
But 1t would not be surprising II its fixed

lack of ability or economy 10 its manage
ment. If such is the case there can be no
other conclusion than that the territory
tributary to it does not yet furnish suffi-
Gent business to support it and pay its fixed
charges. In other words it was built on
the expectation that the country upon
which it depends would be developed rap
idly and would soon furnish q profitable
business.
AS a rule, In projecting railroads. the
estimates of the cost of construction and
equipment are too low and the estimate Of
the business the road will do is too high.
The margin Of profit in the business of
railroads is not nearly so great as it was a
few years ago. The restrictions of railroad
commissions and the demands of railroad
employees have made the gap between reve-
nues and expenses a rather narrow one.
