ger train TN the Georgia Pacific road
Of SC, 900. Three men covered the en-.

compelled the agent, after seriously
woundlng him, to hold up his hands.
They went through the mails and
took all the registered packages they

The Bland bill may not pass this
session of Congress. 1t now ap-
pears hopeless, whereas it promised
ten days ago to pass by at least 40
majority. Its defeat will only serve
to intensity the sentiment among the
agricultural people in its favor, as it
will also intensity the prejudice to
Mr.. Cleveland and the great money
combination at his back. Mr.. Cleve-
lands hackers may he able to force
his nomination and keep silver out
of the platform, but they will uot
be able to keep it out of the cam
paign. The Democratic party is on
record in favor of the measure and
any attempt to dodge it will be con-
strued az insincerlty and cowardice,
and the Republicans will MAKE the
most of it. The present Congress
was elected on it and there is no es-
Gaping the issue.

Mr.. Cleveland is set up AS author
ity on the silver question. When
the Bland-Allison bill passed author
izing the coinage of 100000 of sill
yer per month, Mr.. Cleveland
thought it would ruin the country,
but instead it brought considerable
relief from his contraction policy
later When the resent Sherman
bill became law In 1890, he could
see no hope whatever for the coun-
try. Still as rascally thing as 1t
was, 1t has saved this country from
the panic sent over from England.
With these facts before us we can't
regard Mr.. Cleveland as safe coun-
selor on the silver question. He
don't know as much about it as Mr..
Bland.

Gov. Buchanan claims to be
Democrat. Mr.. Mcdowell has been
running over the State demanding
that every Democratic candidate for
office speak out on the Alliance de-
mands, except the Governor, whose
lips he has paddock on. Is this just
or is it right? Can a free people be ex-
pected to vote for man for high
office, who refuses to express his po-
litIcal sentiments, but demands it OF
all other men?

stripping tobacco are awaiting with
impatience the time to begin real
farm work again, knowing that work
is essential to lay up the shiny
treasure.
Miss Maggie Mai Miller, a charm
ing little lady of Woodford, has re-
turned home after weeks visit to
her grandfather's family, Mr.. J. M.

Quite number of little people as
sembled at DIR. G. r. Crouch's last
Sunday to celebrate the thirteenth
birthday of Willie Crouch. So
many were the bright happy hours
spent in childish glee the time glided
swiftly on until the dinner bell
sounded its welcome call to all.
To this they readily responder. The
table fairly groaned underneath the
splendid food, prepared by the excel
lent hands of Mrs. DR.. Crouch. AT
Ter partaking Of this feast the time
soon came for goodbye to be said,
and after thanking the host and
hostess for this delightful day each
guest left, knowing this would be one
of life's brightest days to which their
minds would resort in long years af-
ter.
Allegretto Club held quite an in
teresting meeting at the home OF Mr..
r. M. Winn last Saturday. Quite a
a number of visitors were present
and besides our regular program we
were favored with delightful music
rendered by the Sango band. Since
our organization-eight years ago
every effort has seemed crowned with
success. Then it was composed o.
many young men and fair ladies
who are not with us now. Some
have left this little land for Other
fields, others have decided happiness
would be more real with some true
and noble heart, so with .brightes
hopes they have left us, and launched
out upon the sea of matrimony
! We hope another eight years will b'
crowned with as much success as thu
last, and should our lots be cast else
where, others will fill our vacan
places, so this society, which has at
forded SO many pleasant hours t.
both old and young, will still b.
J fondly cherished. "REH.'

Mr.. Watterson still adheres to his
opinion that neither Cleveland nor
Hill should be nominated, for the
reason that the factional fight in that
State would lose New York and de-
feat the ticket. The Courier Journal
ably discussing the situation, con-
cludes:
"Mr. Cleveland stands aloof from
the battle. He declines the response
billities of candidacy. He leaves to
others to say the word, Thus re-
CURED to cast in an opinion among
the rest, we must assert it honestly.
Considering the case as it is and facts
as they are, we can see only defeat in
Mr.. Cleyeland's nomination and in
that of Gov. Hills as well, and hence
we think Il best to leave New York
altogether out In the selection of a
nominee"
This is cool, common sense. II
either Wall street or Tammany,
aided by mugwumps and hot headed
men worshippers should prevail at
Chicago, Democracy will lose hope
and defeat will surely follow. The
logic of the situation still points 70
