Fun With a Drummer.

The meanest trick that was ever played on
me. " said St. Louis drummer who was trying
TO boom a conversation in the smoking cubby
in a sleeper. saws the Detroit Herald. was by
an echo in a South Carolina town. The little
town is on the side OF the hill and is as sleepy
and unnteresting place one will find in
year, Journey 1 got into the town on one
boiling hot day in August about O'Clock and
proceeded 20 rustic around to get through bus
mess and skip out.
The town was so Internally lazy-looking that
/ didn't have much confidence in my ability to
get business. At the post Office corner an aged
and decrepit gray mule, With Tapping ears and
solemn mein, presided the session Of
wbittlers, who were in session under the big
sycamore tree. Accosted one % the group to
find out where Josh Wilkins, the principal store
keeper might BE- found, and learned that he was
tending a burryiDR over in Catnip Hollsr."
Just as l was about to move away heard q
muffied cry OF
Help helpN
The whittlers paid no attention, and the
gray mule was giving all bis time to fly on
the end Of his nose.
Again heard the distant mufied cry of
Help help!

4 National Highway Commission

A bill TO create national highway COM
mission was introduced IN the Senate by
Senator Henderson recently. 1t provides
that the commission shall consist of two
senators, five representatives, the Secretary
Of War, the Secretary OF Agriculture, the
Secretary Of the Interior, the Postmaster
General, the Attorney General and men,
Der from each state and territory, making
in all body Of some fifty members 1t
also provides that the commission shall
meet In Washington when congress is In
session, and at the worlds fair and at such
other times and places as the majority may
elect. 1t is proposed that the commission
shall investigate the needs of the country in
regard TO highways and report to congress
The need OF road improvement all over
the country Is so urgent that anything
looking to the betterment Of roads deserves
consideration. And when something has
been found that will fill the proverbial long
felt want it will probably be adopted. But
road building appears TO DO outside the
proper function Of the general government
1t is said that George Washington and
Henry Clay favored federal supervision of
public highways II they did, a majority
Of the people evidently concluded that the
states were the proper authorities to have
charge Of such improvements, SO the matter
WAS left with them, where it should re-
main. The states are amply able 10 take
care Of their own roads. All that is neces-
sary is to awaken the people to a realiza-
ton Of how bad the roads really are, and
how beneficial good roads would be. Such
an swakeningis now going on. State road
congresses and conventions are meeting from
time 70 time. Legislatures are revising the
road laws, and improved machinery and
materials for road making are being
brought into public notice.
In the state of Georgia there are at least
two organizations that were formed for the
purpose OF awakening interest in public
highway improvement and devising some
practicable scheme Of carrying the reform
into effect. These organizations are the
Georgia Road Congress and the Highway
Improvement Association, both Of which
will meet in Atlanta on the first Wednesday
In August. 1t is upon such organizations as
these, and their own individual efforts, that
the people must depend for road improve
ments. Senator Manderson's national high
way commission idea savors too much of
opposition, and is likely to ges very little
further along toward the statute books than
it is at present

After Crisp's scalp.

| The Washington correspondent OF the
| New York Times had talk with q close
friend OF Mr.. Tom Watson a few days
ago, during which he gathered some in
formation that will interest Georgisns, and
which indicates that there is fun ahead in
| the Third district campaign.
| Some of Mr.. WAtson's constituents-that
is TO say, the people who are on his side
! now, not all the people who elected him TO
congress-wrote him letter a short time
ago in which WAS outlined the plan of a
grand jubilee reception they had IN store
for him upon his return 10 the Tenth district
from Warrington. Ii was a part OF the
plan, 90 the reporter was informed, for
"20 900 farmers OF the district" 10 meet MIR.
Watson In Augusta and shower upon him
their "well done" aud "God bless you"
But Mr.. Watson replied that he did not
want such denomination; he did not need
{; he was sure Of carrying his district any
way, and there was no necessity for any
brass band and pyroteonnic displays Fur
thsrmore, he did not intend TO enter Geor-
gia by the Augusta route, but by another
which would lead him through Speaker
Crisp's district. And while he was trsvers-
ing the Third district he intended to lead
Speaker Crisp such a dance as he never
danced before in all his life He would
challenge the speaker 10 joint debate, and,
whether the challenge was accepted or not,
he would meet the speaker at every one OF
his campaign appointments and have some
thing to say TO the people. 10 short, he
proposed 70 have Judge Crisp's scalp.
The dislike between MesTs Crisp and
Watson is mutual, and Of long standing.
Watson almost upset Crisp's plans when he
left the democratic caucus last winter, and
since that time the speaker has been at no
particular pains to conceal bis displeasure.
Watson claims that even on the floor Of the
House he has been treated by the speaker
in a cavalier manner. And now he pro-
poses to get even by making it especially
hot in the Third district from now until the
close Of the campaign. The third party
candidate against Judge Crisp is Editor 8.
h. Christopher, of the Buena Vista Patriot,
and Mr.. WATSON says be will expend all his
energy in his behalf.
Judge Crisp's view Of the situation is yet
would welcome an opportunity to meet Mr..
Watson on the stump. He is well equipped
for such meeting and is probably in a con-
dition Of body and mind that it would do
him good TO get out among the people,
where he could stretch his limbs and give
free expression TO the opinions that he has
had to keep to himself while he listened to
the other fellows talk,
While Mr.. Watson is attempting to scalp
Judge Crisp in the Third district, there will
DO some interesting things going on in the
Tenth. Col. Black aud his friends have not
been idle; nor are they going to be, and it
is within the range Of probabilities that
Mr.. Watson will return from his attempt to
raise the hair of a baldhsaded enemy 70

Third Parties

Only great principles and great issues
call great and lasting political parties into
| existence. They must be born OF necessity.
Issues make parties, and not parties the
issues. Parties must be founded on priu-
ciple, intelligence and conscience, as the
Democratic and Republican parties un-
questionably are, or their existence Is merely
a question OF a short time and little infu-
snce. Parties formed by scheming persons
for their own advancement may grow and
Flourish like q green bay tree" for season,
but the growth Is ephemeral, and they soon
disappear. And so with parties based on
prejudice or temporary dissatisfaction, or
with one minor object in view. They soon
run their course; they do NOE appeal TO rea-
son they cannot retain public confidence.
They spring up aud wither away like
mushrooms These facts have been
proved by the rise and fall of the numerous
''third" parties that have arisen TO sntago-
nize the two leading parties In the country.
But Of all the number, there Is only one
minor party in existence now that can
count the term Of its life back a. far as
1872 and that Is the Prohibition party.
The antl-Masonic party Of 1882; the Know
nothing party, which had Its birth In 1854,
In 1856. when 1t put a national ticket In the
field; the Constitutional Union party of
1880, which lasted only during one cam
paign; the Liberal Republican party, which
In 1872 nominated Greeley aud Brown; the
Greenhaok party, which in 1876 nominated
Peter Cooper for President, and in 1880
nominated James B. Weaver for President
and then died; the National party of 1854,
which nominated B. +. Butler for President,
all prove that a political party, like the scrip
tural house, must be founded on a rock, or
it viii fall; and none of these had q rock for
foundation. They pledged themselves to
correct al once one or more political or
social evils, or 70 establish some new prin-
ciple Of government; but as their profess
sions and principles came TO be understood
they were seen to be lacking in essential
particulars. Furthermore, the older and
firmly fixed parties were quick to learn
corrected; they took them in hand, aud The
new parties were left without an object.
Up to this time the history of third parties
in the United States is that of failure fol-
lowing failure. Whether or not this sue
cession of failures will be broken by the
present third party, the Peoples party, re-
mains to be seen. At present the Peoples
party has very large following. principally
in the south and west, and under the name
OF the farmers alliance it has elected several
members of congress. But 1t stands upon
a platform which the wise judgment of a
majority Of the people cannot and will not
approve, and has nominated as its standard
bearer a man who represents nothing but
himself, and he the most conspicuous polit-
ical failure In the country.

money as he could get his hands upon; was
devoted to his wife as long as she furnished
