Col. James M. Smith. of Oglethorpe
county. who was a delegate to the Chicago
convention, said in speech at Jefferson a
day or two ago that the representatives of
Tammany Hall at the convention gave
what he considered sufficient proof that the
organization would prove faithful to the
nominees. Everybody, except the repub-
lican newspaper editors, is now convinced
that Tammany will support Cleveland and
Stevenson to the extent of its ability-even
the republican editors believe it; but it is
not their policy to say so.

A correspondent Of the Sandersville
Progress writes "Tom Watson gives
Gordon and all the democrats a bad name
and calls them by it, and how it is I cannot
tell why he has such a prejudice against
democrats. Why, have you ever noticed
in all his writings that you cannot find a
single word that he has ever uttered against
the Republican party9" Some people are
especially friendly toward others until they
get In debt to them; then they hate and
shun them. Doing favor for a man who
belongs to that class invariably makes him
an enemy to his benefactor. And that is
why Tom Watson hates the democracy. He
is under obligations to the party. 1t made
him congressman. He owes the Repub-
hcan patty nothing, and that is the reason
he has nothing to say against it.

Ailments Not An Irnapinarv.

From the Louisville Courier-JoVrndI (Den4)
The abuses of which the Peoples party com.
plain are not all imaginary. So far, however,
as they have a subtantial basis they are the
WORK OF the Republican party, and it is grossly
unjust TO lay them, was the fashion at
Omaha, on the ''old parties, - without discrimi-
nation. They are the abuses which the Demo-
cratic party are laboring to correct, and those
who deprecate their existence should aid the
democrats in the work of destroying them

been engaged in the endeavor is wholly Chi

The Anti-Options Bill.

Senator Washburn announced a few days
ago that he was confident the anti-options
! bill would pass both houses of congress and
become law. But il begins to look like the
senator's belief is not founded on good
grounds. The repeated postponement Of a
report on the bill by the Senate judiciary
committee and finally the committees dis
agreement are rather against its
chances Of success. AS it is now.
the bill cannot be brought up until
near the end Of the session, and then,
IL its opponents find that they cannot kill it
on direct vote, they may endeavor to talk
it to death.
The object OF the bill is to prevent option
trading in farm products-puts and calls,
etc.-a class of trading In which no deliv-
cry is contemplated. but is q mere bet on
fluctuations. II the bill only applied to
that system, few would object. But 1t goes
beyond that and prohibits what is called
Legitimate" trading; that is, selling for
future delivery where the actual delivery Of
the goods sold is contemplated.
Another objection to the bill is that it ac~
tuslly invites fraud. II is especially
provided that It shall not apply to
sales by farmers or other pro-
ducers of things sold. But if the farmer
can sell at all he must be free to sell through
a broker or agent. II broker can receive
and act upon orders to sell for farmers, he
may receive such orders by the thousand
without the means of knowing whether or
not the farmers who sent them were the
actual owners of the products offered; or,
indeed, whether the farmers offering the
products we're the principals in the trans
action. Any enterprising firm of brokers
could speedily make arrangements under
which orders in any desired num-
Der could be received In the
names of farmers and unlimited
transactions carried on Without pound or
bushel of the product dealt In changing
hands, or, for the matter of that, being in
existence There has been considerable talk
during the past few weeks Of certain firms
Of Spectators in New York and Chicago re-
moving their offices to Montreal or Liver
pool IN the event of the anti-options bill be-
coming a law but they would most likely
make arrangements on some such plan as
the above and continue to do business at
the old stands.
The New York Journal Of Commerce, an
authority on commercial affairs, sums up
the objection TO the passage Of an anti-op-
tons bill thus: "The root of the difficulty is
that no mode has yet been discovered for
distinguishing between the legitimate sales
of products actually owned by farmers
themselves or those who purchase for them
and the purely speculative or gambling
sales by persons who have not in actual pos
session bushel or pound Of she product
sold. Until some such mode can be devised,
a measure must be either easily evadsd and
therefore of no benefit, or else a serious in
corruption of actual sales for future de-
livery by producers, and therefore meal
oulably harmful to farmers themselves"

NOISELESS POWDE r.
Important Discovery in Explo-
sives by Resident of
Montreal.
He Unsuccessfully Tries to Sell
the Secret to the United
States Government.

MONTREAL. Nov. IAN item in a
Washington paper few days ago stated
that Montreal man had discovered the
secret of how to make noiseleSS pow
der. 1t is also said that for over year
he had been endeavoring to sell his Sc
cret to the United States government
through the board of ordnance and fort
ifcatons. but that he had failed, as he
refused to give the board a copy of the
formula, so that they could experiment
and find out for themselves whether he
had discovered the long sought-for Sc
cret or not. Mr.. Blackman, the discov-
erer, said he could not diyulge his Sc
cret, but he would give all the informa-
alton possible.
The white or gray melinite which the
French use has for a base nitro cot
ton, produced like collodion without
absolute alcohol. One Of the ingredi-
ents might be considered by chemists
as an alcohol, technically speaking.
The manufacture of this white or light
gray powder in large quantities would
cali for large supply of aulperic acid.
Thedark chocolate or German powder
has three principal ingredients which
analysis of the powder will not show.
The method employed is almost the
same as in the manufacture of ordinary
black powder. In fact, the plaut now
employed could be used for. the manu-
facture of dark chocolate.
: The speaker then changed to cordite,
the smokeless powder used in the Brit
ish army. This, he said, might be
powerful as propeller Which used in
heavy guns, but not more so than the
others, and especially melinite. AS
general purpose powder, he does not
consider that cordite is applicable, and
especially for the use of small arms,
upon the ground that it cannot be re-
.duced to she form of fine powder, which
is necessary for use in small cartridges,
statements to the contrary notWith-
standing by interested parties in tho
British and American war departments.
1t has been found by tests that the mel
mite and dark chocolate powders are
both proof against climatic changes.
Mr.. Blaclman said, in conclusion, that
he was now in communication with the
British war Office regarding these sub
stances.

WANTS A DIVIDE.
A Pierre Woman after a Share of
Valuable Property in New
York and Chicago.
She Claims to he the Widow OF the
Only Son of the
Legatee.

CHICAGO, Nov. IA bill containing
oyer a hundred printed pages of matter
was filed in the circuit court today by
Mrs. Lucy l.. Stillman, of Pierre, S. D.,
against John A. j. Kend'Z, trustee of
the estate of Nelson Stillman, deceased,
Louisa Kellett, Fannie Turner Eldridge,
Minerva Dexter, Mary A. Bartholomew,
Emillne Fenton, w. II. Stillman and
others.
BY this suit the complainant seeks to
recover half interest III property To-
Gated at East Fifty-seventh street and
Lexington avenue, in New York city,
and also a.half interest in premises Nos.
1913, 200 and POP North Clark street, and
No. 166 Clark street, in Chicago, besides
all accounting of rents from Kendiz as
trustee. Complainant says she was
married to Charles Phelps Stillman,
son of Nelson Stillman, in November,
1878. In 1888 her husband died, leaV
ing, beside herself, as heirs, his mother,
Mrs. Louisa Kellett, and his sister,
Mary Louise Pride.
Nelson Stilman was a wealthy resi-
dent of GaIena, ILL.,, and he died in 1871.
BY his Will he provided a home for his
wife, which after her death was to re-
vert to the son, Charles Phelps. Large
sums were bequeathed to three charlta-
Bile societies. and the residue was to go
equally to the daughter, Mary Louise,
and the son, Charles Phelps. Since
then the daughter was married to
George S. Pride, of New York, but sub
sequently divorced from him. Some of
the property left by Nelson Stillman Is
that sought by complainant as widow OF
the son. She claims that her husband
left it to her by will, and she wants a
receiver appointed to take the property
out of the hands of the trustees.

A WELCOME FALLING OFF.
Western Roads Clearing Up Ac-

Western Roads Clearing Up Ac-
cumulated Traffic.
CHICAGO, Nov. Traffic off Gals re-
port decrease in grain shipments from
the West. The movement has been so
heavy as to almost swamp some of the
roads, but it is now little more than half
as heavy as it was two weeks ago. The
falling off is welcomed by the managers
of the grain-carrying lines, who say they
need nothing so much as breathing
spell and chance TO clear their tracks
of some of the accumulated freight that
has been crowded upon them of late.
The elevators and yards here are SO
overcrowded that it will probably take
two weeks to get them cleared. 1t is
expected that there will be another rush
of business after the election when the
grain that is now being held back will
be pushed forward.
Sioux CITY, To-, Nov. Ia general
rain throughout the Northwest for
tWenty-four hours has given the rail
road officials encouragement in their
efforts to raise the grain blockade and
break the general car famine. They
say that it will make roads bad, stop
farmers from hauling grain and give
UIlGI1 CIdllC6 W SCb lOdSiCo Culo Jul VI
the way and relieve the overlooking
elevators. At the same time they are
fearful that the rush of business will
greatly complicate affairs at Minneap-
oils and the lake board and create
blockade there even worse than has yet
been experienced. There are hundreds
of loaded cars in this section that have
been standing on side tracks for several
days waiting for motive power to move
them. Receipts at all points during the
last two weeks have been unparalleled.

Chicago Today.
Chairman A. B. Stickney Will
Make an Interesting
Report.
Successful Carrying Out OF
His Plans Outlined Some
Time Ago.
Decrease in Grain Shipments
Giving Traffic Officials a
Breathing Spell.

CHICAGO, Nov. IA special meeting
of the stockholders of the Chicago Great
Western Railroad company will be held
in this city tom brow. A. B. Stickney,
chairman of the board of directors, has
just returned from second trip to
Europe in the interest of the company.
and it is understood that he has an in
teresting report to submit to the stock
holders, relating to the successful carry
ing out of the plans which he outlined
to them several months ago. Several of
the English capitalists whose money is
invested in the property are also
here. The plans of the company, 1t is
said, are not so much in increased mile
age as they are in the direction of gem
eral improvements. 1t has been the
desire of Mr.. Stickney's life to build up
the model railroad Of the country, and
he believes the Chicago Great Western
is to be that railroad.
