doughnut dispensaries that deck that thorough
fare. and he got in town yesterday-presumably
from Boston. Five minutes after he had as

They Onaht to Resign.

Democrats of the Ninth congressional dis
t=ict are calling on Representative Thomas
| Elisha VIM 20 resign his seat in congr ess
| He was elected as democrat and went into
the democratic caucus at Washingto n. He
was a good enough democrat apparently
until he thought the Peoples party had got
the upper hand in his district, and then he
"hopped" to that party, giving as his ex-
cuse for doing so that the democratic ma
jority in the House had refused to pass the
Bland silver bill.
On what ground can Mr.. VIM consist
emily retain his seat in coagress2 He ad-
mits he is no longer a member of the Demo-
cratic party, but says a majority of his
constituents has joined the Peoples
party. How does he know they have?
Democrats Of his district say he is mis-
taken, and, that even il he is not, as a self
respecting man he ought not to continue TO
hold an office to which be was elected as q
democrat by democrats. He should resign
| at once and let the people of his district have
the opportunity to say whether or not they
desire to be represented by a member Of the
Peoples party
The fact that the House refused TO pass
the Bland bill is not a sufficient excuse for
Mr.. VIM to leave his party and join the
Peoples party. The Democratic party has
never declared itself to be In favor Of the free
coinage Of silver, and the silver question is
not one on which the line between the Dem
ocratic and Republican parties is clearly
drawn. 1t is not for Mr. VIM to say,
therefore, that the Democratic party has
abandoned any one of its principles because
the House did not pass the Bland silver bill.
AS a straightfor ward and honorable man
theresis only one thing for Mr.. VIM to do,
and that is to resign his seat in congress.
He certainly cannot continue to hold it and
at the same time affiliate with party that
is hostile to the party which elected him
And the Hon. Thomas E. Watson ought
also to resign. He was elected as a demo-
crat and is actively engaged in trying to de-
stroy the Democratic party. Does he and
Mr.. VIM think the course they are pur-
suing an honorable onea If they do. their
standard Of right is very different from that
OF most other democrats.
1t is certain that Mr.. Vim will not be
renominsted by the Democratic party. and
it does not now look as If he would be
nominated by the Peoples party. 1t would
serve him right to permit him to drop back
into obscurity from which the Democratic
party rescued him. He has not shown him
self to be the kind of a man the people Of
the Ninth district want to represent them
in congress.

Che Concluded to Live

The Harrisburg Telegram prints the story of
remarkable case of mind cure" The patient
was an elderly widow, a Mrs Norton, who had
been her husbands second wife She was now
to all appearance nearing her end, and sent in
some haste for lawyer. He fastened to the
house. where he found chair and table wait
ing for him at his clients bedside. She wished
MIN 20 draw up her will. He wrote the formal
Introductory phrases. First of all, - she began
in faint voice, Il want to give the farm to my
sons, Harry and James; just put that down -
But" said the lawyer, you can't do that,
give away" The farm isn't minei" she
broke out in voice decidedly stronger than
before. mo, ma'am," answered the
lawyer; You have only a life
run for .goin' on twenty seven years isn't mine
to do what please within Why not iudgeP I'd
like to know what you mean" why, your
husband gave you life interest in all his prop
erty, and at your death the farm goes to his son
John, and your children will get the city
houses" And when die John Norton is to
have this house and farm whether will or no -
Just So" Then amt goin' to die" said the
old woman, in ringing voice, and with that
she threw her feet over the front of the bed,
gathered a blanket about her, Strengthened up
her gaunt form and walked across the room 10
a chair before the fire. The doctor and the
lawyer went away. That was fifteen years
ago, and the old lady is alive to-day.

The investigation of the pension bureau
and Commissioner Raum by the congress
sional committee has already gone tar
enough to call for change in the commits
sionership. One incident, brought out at
the examination Wednesday, illustrates the
rottenness of the whole bureau under pres
ent management Witness Lind, repub-
lican employe, admitted that he had written
q decoy letter. inclosing money TO Con-
gresham Cooper for his secretary, Jersey,
who was suspected by the office of calling
up pension cases under Mr.. Cooper's
name, and with his knowledge, and selling
the information. and that Mr. Cooper was
party to 1t. The decoy letter was dictated
by Raum's agent, Greenwalt. But it failed
of its purpose; Mr.. Cooper returned the
money with the statement that Hersey
could take no money for work done for
him. The animus is apparent when it is
remembered that Mr.. Cooper is pushing
the investigation into Raum's methods.

A Fusion Programme.

According to our Atlanta dispatches the
Peoples party and the Republican party in
this state are not very far apart. They are
close enough together to justify talk Of a
fusion Of the two parties. 1t is even init
mated that an agreement between
them has teen reached. Indeed, it
is positively asserted that the state
executive committee of the Republican
party in a secret meeting in Atlanta
Wednesday night adopted a resolution pro-
viding for fusion. The republican state con-
vention met in Atlanta Thursday and the
speeches which some of the delegates made
indicated that an understanding of some
kind between the republicans and third
partyites had been reached.
1t would not be at all remarkable II the
Georgia democracy should be confronted
with a fusion ticket. 1t will be romem-
bered that at the st. . Louis conven-
ton the leaders Of the Peoples party
expressed a determination to break
the backbone of the Georgia democ-
racy. The most Of those leaders were re-
publicans, and they hate the Democratic
party as much now as they did when they
were acting with the Republican party.
Nothing would please the leaders Of the
national Republican party more than
fusion of the Republican party and the
Peoples party in the southern states. They
know the Peoples party amounts to very
little, and that it will not be heard f after
this year. II the Republican party by
fusing with it could get control OF the
material Of which it is composed it
would be in a better position in the
south than ever before to break up the solid
south. 1t would have a native white ele-
ment ia it that would assist it greatly in
organizing the blacks and getting their
votes into the ballot boxes. 1t is not inn
probable that the third party leaders had
fusion with the Republican party in mind
when, at st. Louis, they declared 1t to be
their purpose to break the backbone OF the
southern democracy,
But what do those alliancemen who have
always been democrats. but who are now
wandering off to the Peoples party. think
of becoming a part of the Republican
party' Is the prospect pleasant one for
them1 And yet they ought not to be sur
prised IL they should find themselves in
close fellowship with republicans. Is not
the Peoples party dominated by men who
have been republicans all their
lives, and is not the head Of that party
in this state firm believer in the leading
doctrines Of the Republican partYl
And what do farmers of Georgia expect
to gain by assisting the Republican partya
Does that party favor any of the Ocala or
ST T,oula damanda9 II powhara appears
that it does. II the farmers who are
wandering off to the Peoples party will
take a second sober thought they will get
back into the Democratic party as soon as
they can.

Wicked Wiles in the West.

Considerable excitement has been occaSioned
| In our high music circles by the rumor that q
certain eminent musician was recently done out
| of a considerable sum of money by an equally
eminent chicago business man, says the Chi
cego Netos. As the story goes. this musician was
invited 70 perform OF an evening at the bust
ness mans residence, and for these distin-
gulshsd services received fee represented by
TOUR figures. But having earned this fee and
received 1t. the musician was invited to ''sit
| into" game of poker, and as this game was
the musicians one particular bad habit the
musician did sit in" the same nor did he es-
cape therefrom until he had lost every blessed
cent OF the fee which but short time before
had been paid to him by his lordly host
rms tale, embellished with numerous addenda
ana ornate details has been spread far and wide
curing the last four OIL five days; society people
thlnk u monstrous good joke and many
hearty laugh is had at the musicians expense.
The music fraternity, however, processes to be
vlrtuously indignant, and there are threats OF
formal protest against what is termed by them
the sharp practices Of tradesmen." These so
CaHeo Sharp practices are, we regret to say, not
directed against musicians alone; the PROBES
sion OF letters has suffered thereby, and we
could, II we had the space and the inclination,
cite numerous instances where local poets have
been outwitted by INSCRIPTIONS representatives
OF our trade and commerce. Many an inspired
poet has been deprived of a square meal by the
cruel practice of our heartless restaurateurs in
demanding payment therefore in advance. NO
pay, no grub, is the sordid sign that has driven
many an inspired genius out OF a basement eat
ing house with nothing but the smell of fried
eggs and broiling srloins to stay him in his fight
against fate
Prot. Leondas Costing in his ''Memairs of
West Side Poet" patheticalIy tells of how he
once wrote an epic poem fer the dedicatory ex-
ercises of a large tallow refinery in Blue Island
avenue. After he had read this noble poem
tne BOSS OF the refinery induced him to cut the
cards 70 determine whether he should get $40
or nothing for his services The guileless pro-
fessor fell into the trap and was mulcted, of
course. Subsequently it was learned that the
card were stacked.
Other equally pathetic instances OF duplicty
might be cited, but it is not our wish TO pro-
mote class hostility in the midst of us. 1t is
rather our desire to foster spirit Of amity
but that will be quite out of the question SO
long as one class in our community takes ad-
vantage OF the simplicity of another TO profit
thereby, selfshly ignobly, heartlessIy.

The Alliance and the Third Parity.

Inc Alliance ana the Third Party.
The suballiances do not have a very pro-
found respect for the constitution OF the ALI
ance. 1t is probable that many of the suballi-
ances do not know what the alliance consti-
tuition contains. They are beginning to find
out, however. A very important provision
of the constitution is that neither the alli-
ance nor the suballiances shall take any po~
htical action.
For many weeks in this state county alli-
ances and county suballiances have been
going ahead at great rate indorsing the
Peoples party. They have done this under
instructions from those alliance leaders who
have Joined the Peoples party. These lead
ers must have known that the alliance con-
stitution prohibits anything of the kind,
even if the members of the suballiances did
not. Such a disregard of the organic law
Of the alliance indicates quite clearly that
the purpose for which the alliance was orig
inally organized has very slender hold
upon the members of the organization.
The alliance has gone into politics, and it
is pretty safe to say it will soon 60 to pieces
unless it gets back to its original position
The executive committee of the alliance of
this state, having ordered the suballiances
to rescind their Endorsements of the Peoples
party or give up their charters, there is
likely to be some lively times in alliance
circles within the next week or two. VIII
the order be obeyedl Ii is difficult to see
how obedience to it can be refused, unless it
shall be decided to deliberately ignore the
alliance constitution. In that event, 1t will
be but a short time before the alliance is a
thing Of the past, because an organiza-
ton that disregards the law upon
which it is based cannot prosper. Dissen-
sions will wreck it. Already there is bitter
feeling springing up between the alliance
men who have gone into the Peoples party
| and those who remain true to the Demo-
cratic party, and this feeling is certain to
become more intense as the political CAM
paign progresses. 1t is safe to say that the
alliance must get out of politics or 60 to
pieces.

Congressman Turner condensed volume
of truth in a sentence when at Waycross
Thursday he said: THE trouble is that
money is collected from all over the coun-
try and disbursed in one section of the coun-
try" The republican protective tariff is
the chief cause Of this evil, and the lesser
evils that contribute to the same effect owe
their origin to the same party. The democ-
racy's fight for tariff reform is battle for
a restoration Of the era of prosperity that
was enjoyed before the tariff played havoc
with the country.

Annie Pixley. an actress well known to
patrons of the theater in Savannah, got
locked up in New York the other night-not
in police station, but in the Garden thea
ter. After a rehearsal she felt tired and
lay down in her dressing room to rest
when the most natural thing in the world
happened-she fell asleep. When she
awoke everybody was gone, the lights were
out and the place in stygian darkness. The
fright nearly threw her into Mysteries; but
she was soon found by her friends, who in
stituted search, when they discovered that
she had not gone home.
