THE WHEAT MARKET.

CHICAGO March 25-Today broke the
record for low prices in the whea. pit. The
figures for May, the ruling option, crashed
down TO 70 cents. One year ago at this
time bushel for the same delivery was
several cents above one dollar. The de-
moralization produced one failure, that of
c. Z. Doerr & Co., who were on the wrong
side of the market with half million
bushels on their hands. Flat foreign
markets and an unusual grist of bearish
news on this side of the water were what
brought on the big slump. Cash wheat
sold at IS cents, May at 20 cents and July
at 50 cents

THE GERMAN EDUCATION BILL

BERLIN, March 2S-Before the regular
business of the day WAS considered in the
lower house of the Prassian diet today
Count Won Gutenberg, the newly ap-
pointed president of the Prussian council,
made statement in which he justified
The separation OF the imperial chancellor
ship from the presidency of the Prassian
ministry. He pointed out that the burden
Of work involved by the union of the two
posts was beyond the powers of one man.
Continuing Count Won Gutenberg said
fhat, in view of the fact that the discus
sion of the primary education bill had
created serious and hitherto irTeconcilable
differences III the diet and in the COM
mittee and also in the country at large,
mud as no satisfactory result could be ex-
pected at present, the government re-
Trained from insisting upon the further
consideration of the bill. But, he added,
the government reserved to itself the right
10 decide when and in what form the
matter would again be taken up without
Dverstepping the limits of the constitution.
Count Won Eulenbergs statement WAS
received with mingled cheers and Kisses
by the meubers. Nearly all the ministers
with the exception of Chancellor Won
Caprivi, were present. After informing
the lower house of the diet as to the with
drawal Of the primary education bill,
Count Won Gutenberg went TO the cham
Der OF the upper house, where he made
similar statement.
The Freisinnige Xeitung says that Min
lister Won Boettlcher will remain, the EN-
peror refusing to accept his resignation.

THE COMING CRISIS,

What is the fundamental idea of
southern politics? Does not. self
preservation come first and foremost
Of all things? Behind free. silver, a
change of banking, tariff changes
and everything of the kind lies the
great rock-bottom of selt-govern-
ment. White supremacy with the
right to manage our own affairs is
the basic limit. Suppose the Re-
publicans next fall capture the two
houses of congress and the white
house as we'll suppose the passage
of force bill is pressed then what
is the matter with it becoming for
midable reality right here at our
own polls?
In order to prevent an invasion of
its rights the south must remain the
solid phalanx that it has been since
the days of reconstruction. The
Democracy of the south must stand
shoulder to shoulder with the Dem
ocracy of the north in a battle for
existence. It seems that We are
coming to the campaign which
marks the crisis of American Dem
ocracy. fit is defeated this fall
what is left to hope for? ItDemoc-
racy triumphs what is lett to fear?-

1t was discovered at Uniontown,
Pa, last week that mine fire, start
ed twenty years ago and supposed
to have been extinguished at the
time, is still burning, and has con-
sumed at least FIVE acres of coal.
This discovery was made by Mine
Inspector Duncan, who was sent for
to go to the Stewart Coke Works 80
investigate what was supposed to be
new gas discovered in the mine.
The gas came from strange stratum
in the coal into which the miners
had just penetrated. He pronounc-
ed it an old fire. Twenty years ago
a former owner who had opened an
edge mine built fire of rails to give
him light to work by at night La
ter it was found that the coal vein
had caught. Every known device
was tried to extinguish the fire, and
after several years it was supposed
to have died out.

A COMMITTEE of sixty Republi
cans, white and black, nett in Allan
ia last Thursday, and Tack Har-
groves, Republican postmaster at
Rome, and an Allianceman, advo-
voted fusion with the Third Party.
The Atlanta Constitution says
"Major Hargroves argued that the
appearance ofthe third party and the
breaking away of the farmers from
the democracy gave the republicans
a great opportunity, and that q
fusion, with che peoples party on
a joint ticket, would carry the cleo
ton in the Seventh congressional dis
triot and defeat the democratic Mons
inee." Two negro delegates from
Rome insisted that Major Hargroves
was the man to nominate for Con-
gress on the fusion ticket. Other
Republicans want no fusion, saying
that they can elect their man now,
owing to division of the Democrats.
Harrison delegates were elected to
the national convention.

The story of the goose that laid
the golden eggs may have been a
good aRecdots in the good old times
before the Great West was discov-
cred, but story from Butte, Mon,
overtops it. A few days ago J. A.
McConville, who lives in Montana
street, killed one of his chickens for
dinner, and was surprised to find a
quantity of gold nuggets in its crop
and gizzard. Having thirty-one
chickens that had scratched in the
same patch, he began post-mortem
prospecting on them. In each
chicken he found nuggets, and the
total quantity gathered had cash
value OF 1887. The gold was sold
to the State National Bank and pro-
nounced Is carat fine. MIR. McCon-
vile bought fifty chickens and turn
ed hem out to do scratch mining on
the gold fields surrounding his hens
coop. After four days he killed one
chicken and mined 50 worth of gold
from its crop.

THE pensions now amounts to
about $40, 100000 a year. Of this
amount the ten Southern States pay
$40,000,000 to each State. Divide
that by 1877, the number of counties
in Georgia, and it makes little
over SGT, 900 for each county each
year, almost every dollar of which
goes North and West. Now, not

sums received, the third party is

MANY people promise anything
you ask of them, but make small
matter of keeping their promises.
They enter into engagements with
you TO do this or that, to meet you
or call on you at certain time or
to do some favor for you, and utter
ly fail to fulfill their engagements.
Surely we ought to keep sedulous
watch over ourselves in this regard
We ought to be faithful to the
promises We make, cost what it may.
1t is noble thing when we find one
whose promises We are as sure of as
OF the rising of the sun; whose sim.
plest word is as good as his oath; who
does just what he says he will do al
the moment he says he will do it.
That is the kind of faithfulness God
wants.
