Boss pnct,a Circular.

The circular OF Mr.. Buck, the republican
boss Of Georgia, advising the republicans
20 vote the tcses Of the Peoples party has
been pretty thoroughly distributed. Ac-
cord;ng to dispatch from Cordele dr.
Watson is helping 70 distribute them. This
would indicate that ne has some sort OF an
understanding with the national republican
leaders. because Mr.. Buck would hardly
have sent out his circular If he had not
been directed to do so by those leaders.
For weeks 1t has been we'll understood
that the third party was making strenuous
efforts to capture the black vote. Their
speakers are addressing them at meetings
held in out of-the-way places and at IN
usual hours.
From q statement published in the MORN
ING News a day or two ago it seems that
there is an agreement of some sort between
tie republicans and third partyites by
which they will vote the came electoral
ticket. II such a ticket should be voted for
and elected would the electors cast the vote
Of the state for Harrison!
In few days, doubtless, the character Of
the understanding, II there is one, will be
known. The third party men, heretofore
democrats and bitter opponents Of the Re
publican party, may End themselves voting
for Gen. Harrison if they are not careful.
They have always regarded black rule with
horror. Can they consistently vote for a
man pledged to policy that would result
in black rulel Gen. Harrison is committed
to the force Dill, and that bill means black
rule.
A vote for Gen. Weaver is virtually
vote for Gen. Harrison, but If Mr.. Bucks
scheme is as indicated the third partyites
will vote almost directly for Gen. Harrison.
They should get at the true inwardness Of
Mr.. Bucks scheme at once.

Nesded No Geography.

When the war ended and the negroes were
free there was great enthusiasm for educating
them. says Thomas Nelson Page In HGrper's
One OF the first schools started was built on the
edge of bis place by Col. Trigg, who got q
little ''schoolnarm," as they were termed, to
come down and teach Il. It was soon filed by
the colored population, the pupils ranging from
70 IS years, all studying the 'a-b alb. e-b eb"
Even Uncle Jack Scott, the colonel's head man,
one OF the old-timers, went in ana was trans
ferred from the stable to the school room but
soon dropped out.
1t was several years after this that Uncle
Jack was working one day at water gate when
the children came down the road from school.
They stopped and peeped stolid y through the
fence. Among them was JRwnie, Mrs Scott s
hopeful, who had proved an apter scholar than
his father. His bag was on his arm. He
climbed over the fence, and from the bank
gazed down alphabetically at his father in the
water below. Presently he said:
20, papa, de teacher say you mus git me a
geography"
Uncle Jacks jaw set. He dug on as if he had
not heard Then he repeated to himself /:

Dave Martin,s Schema.

The kind Of campaign work that the no
torious Dave Martin, of Philadelphia, is
expected to do is beginning to be under
stood. He now has room in the building
in New York with the republican national
committee The democratic papers Of New
York have given Martins record to the
public. 1t is not record 10 be proud Of.
When Senator Quay asked President Hsr-
rison to appoint him to an i'm
portant federal Office in Philadel-
phia, James McManes, the republican
boss Of that city. went to Washington and
protested against the appointment. He said
Of Martin to the President:
"He is a disreputable rascal-a rufiian at
the pols-a manipulation Of ballot-bo4es-a
dispenser of corruption funds Wiling
tool OF that element in the social life OF
Philadelphia which defies Law, order and
decency."
The President. however, appointed
Martin, and now he purposes to make use
of him in the campaign. The New ork
Tribune and other republican papers speak
OF him as Hon. David Martin"
It has been discovered that blacks from
Arkansas, Tennessee and other southern
states are being colon lied In New Jersey
and Connecticut. 1t ia asserted that Martin
has charge Of this colonization scheme Inc
purpose seems to be to put enough OIacAs III
those states to carry them for the repuo-
lioans. Il is alleged that hundreds OF them
have been discovered. No less than
seventv-hve have been found in
the town of Railway, N J. They
are not anxious for work and seem TO have
no difficulty In getting all they want to eat
Some OF them, it is reported, have been
trained into confessing that they have been
brought from the south TO vote the repub-
lican ticket
II was stated in our dispatches yesterday
that Chairman Harrity, Of the democratic
national committee, has information to
the effect that Martin has a fraudulent
scheme to carry Indiana for Harrison that
beats Dudley's famous blocks OF Ave
scheme. Mr.. Harrity hasn't stated what
the scheme is, but he will take care that
Martin doesn't carry 1t into effect.
And it is the Republican party-the party
that is demanding the force bill in order to
secure free ballot and fair count-that is
trying to win the election by fraudulent
means. What a hypocritical party 1t is!
But where is the money to come from to
carry into effect these schemes Of fraud on
the ballot-boxl From the protected manu-
facturers, of course. The fat will be fried
out of them. They must provide a cam
paign fund amounting to 81, 900 or more.
The party that gives them the right to levy
a tax on the toiling millions demands pay for
the right. And yet the third party, the al
legged party of reform, is joining hands
with this party that is despoiling and cor.
ruptiug the people.

Willing to Pay For It.

Adam AFFORD was rich, a bachelor and &C.
centric. says Kate Fields Washington. His
eccentrioity leaned largely toward the bottle,
but he had decency enough not to get on a
drunk In his own town. Whenever he felt one
OF his spells coming on he would load his pockets
with money, go TO the city. take rooms In the
best hotel and begin swapping his cargo for the
coveted state Of mind.
On these occasions the hotel making the
most of it, would tack ON as large charges as
possible. Adam was always furnished with q
negro attendant in his room, II Pomp hap
pened to break q china cup the bill would come
In: "OBe piece choice old china, lost or broken,
s." Or II Adam happened to put his fist
through a IS mirror, the bill would appear:
"One plate mirror broken. $l5," Even so small
an article as a wine glass that had stopped too
suddenly against Pomp's woollY paos was sure
| broken, 81"
One day when Adam had gone out for an air
| ing, leaving Pomp TO look after the rooms,
| that gentleman Of color, tempted by two fnll
bottles of old port, towed them inbo q port of
his own. He then slowed himself away In some
obscure corner to sleep Of the effects of his
high living. After awhile Adam returned to
his rooms Just sober enough to realize that his
| cash was nearly consumed, and that IL was time
| to pull for home.
Whether for business or pleasure, Adam was
| man OF action. So he said: Here, you,
Pomp, come and pack my trunk" But Pomp
| was out Of sight and beyond hearing.
Visions OF past experiences fitting through
office. With his hands poked wildly into his
almost empty pockets, he shouted What's the
