WHAT THEY NEEDED.

A good old Baptist minister in Ken
lucky on one occasion went into politics
and was billed to make a speech at a
cross roads. The house was full, for it
was known that the minister had at one
time voted the Republican ticket, and
there was no little curiosity to hear him
speak. When the speaker arose he was
given round of applause.
"Fellow citizens" he began, with a
bow, "before opening my address 1 want
to ask all the Democrats in this room to
stand up"
Every man in the house got up.
NOW all who are sure they will vote
the Democratic ticket, in spite of any
and all opposition, please raise their
right hands," requested the speaker, and
every hand went up.
Thanks, fellow citizens" he said.
''now you may sit down, and as 1 see
you are all Democrats clean to the core
and nothing on earth can change you
[uproarious and continued applausel
there is no necessity of my making any
political argument, and l shall preach a
sermon to you on the salvation of your
immortal souls, which, it seems to me,
you are more in need of"
They raised great row, but he threat
ened to have them arrested for disturb
ing divine worship, aud quoted them
until he finished a sermon two hours
long.

Now that the Supreme Court of New
Hampshire has refused a new trial to
the cOwardly murderer of Christie War
den, the wretched fellow should be al
lowed to disappear from public notice at
least, until he has expiated his crime.
The laws delays have already prolonged
his life many months and delayed the
righteous punishment of his crime, but
no further opportunity should be given
him to pose as an object of sympathy or
for any expression of maudlin sentiment
tally for his unfortunate situation. In
the administration of justice abundant
time is granted him for repentance, but
the public can we'll afford to be spared

THE SECRET BALLOT LAW.

A PROMINENT DOCTOR ACCUSED OF

accusation in the hearing of the writer.
Said he, 81 firmly believe that DR.,
Intentionally or unintentionally, killed
my wife. He pronounced her complaint
mption-incurable She accept
ed the verdict, and-died. Yet since
then l have heard of at least a dozen
cases, quite as far advanced as hers; that
have been cured by DR.. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery. Her life might have
been saved, for consumption is not "iiin-
durable" OF course it Is not. The
Discovery will remove every trace of
it, if taken in time and used faithfully.
Consum2 tion is disease of the blood
a scrofulous affection-and the 'Discov-
ery'' strikes the root of the evil. For all
cases of weak lungs, splitting of blood,
severe lingering coughs and kindred all
ments, it is a sovereign remedy.

for coming purposes. When either OF these
things is done silver will be fully remonetized.
and silver and gold together will constitute tho
real metallic money of the WORLD, the money with
which all paper circulation will bs redeemed,
and Into which all contracts will be resolved
upon final settlement.
II an attempt should be made now by the
United States alone 20 authorize the free coin
age of silver and so fix the ratio by legislation
as to make a gold and silver dollar OF equal
intrinsic value, it would be obviously unfair to
make the present commercial value Of silver
bullion the basis OF the adjustment, because
the partial decentralization Of silver by limiting
its coinage has undoubtedly had considerable
influence in depreciating its price and apprecl-
at1ng the price or value of gold.
The free and unlimited coinage OF silver upon
any ratio that might be established would,
therefore, have tendency to bring the value OF
the two metals nearer to each other, and the
true ratio for the purpose Of coinage would be
found at some point between &c to and the
present relative prices of gold and silver bullion.
1t may be impossible for any single government
to establish q ratio which will be sufficiently
stable to sustain the free coinage OF both metals
without disturbing its monetary system. II so,
an International conference is the only tribunal
that can extrlcate us from the existing situation.
Any measure which will fully remonetize silver
and insure the equality of the dollars coined
from the two metals. whether it be an act of
congress or the agreement of an international
monetary conference, will receive my cordial
support, for believe that the use Of both is
essential to the prosperity of this and all other
commercial countries. / have uniformly voted
for both bills aud resolutions inviting other ma.
pose of fully establishing the use of silver, and
l sincerely hope that the conference which is to
be assembled will be able to reach such an
agreement upon that subject as will meet the
approval Of all the governments participating
In 1t. Very truly yours,

1t Has Been Proved to be a Paying
Crop in That Section.
Capt Joseph White has returned from a
trip to Waycross, where he went to open a
safe. After finishing this work ne was
taken by Capt. johnson to the large mills
of the Waycross Lumber Company, about
seven miles from the town. On the way
they stopped to inspect tobacco planta-
ton in which Capt. johnson is interested
Thirty acres are under cultivation. Sew
eral varieties of seeds were planted, 1t be-
ing the intention of those backing the ex-
pertinent to discover exactly what can be
expected from the soil of Ware county
Their success has been extremely crafty
ing, each kind Of leaf showing up we'll
despite the drought, from which the crop
suffered early in the season.
Capt. White brought back some newly
cured leaves with him and they were pro-
nounced by experts here to be of q fine
quality and suitable for making cigars OF a
good grade. The experiment has been
watched with much interest by all the
farmers in the vicinity Of Waycross. and
now that 1t has been demonstrated that
tobacco can be profitably cultivated in
that section of the state many will probably
turn their attention to it, AS there is a
great body OF newly cleared land there
abouts, which can be bought in suita Die

as soon as the facts become generally known
it is believed that immigration from the
tobacco raising portions Of other states may
be induced.
Two growers from North Carolina who
are acquainted with all the details OF tobacco
culture have the experiment in charge
They are satisfied with the results achieved
this season aud next year, being better
acquainted with the soil and climate, will
prOduce much better results.
II tobacco culture is pushed in this part
Of Georgia Savannah would be the natural
market for the product and there is no
reason why the greater portion Of large
crop should not be Consumed hero by
cigar manufacturers. Savannah has several
small factories of this character. What is
needed ia a com pany with large capital
With the advantage Of tobacco raised in
the vicinity one could be readily organized.
For this reason Savannah must feel a direct
interest in tho development of the cultiva-
ton Of the plant.
Capt. White found that the farmers be-
tween here and Wayoross have almost
given I'D cotton In favor OF corn and other
crops. The corn that he saw along the road
compared favorably with that raised on the
truck farms about Savannah.
