No aronna for cnnrlnlnt-

The young man who runs the Washing
tln bureau of tho New York Tribune is
d.yotng great deal oi time and much of
The space of his paper 90 er.ticisiuE Mr.
H1so Smith. the Secretary 0f the Interior.
b. does NOT approve Of thc way Secretary
Smith manages mis- Office. What seems
10 him 10 be especially deserving of CON
dywu3t.0n is the preference the Secreta-
rf shows for democrats i'm making APP
poiutmcnts.
II is strange, but true, that about all
tho republicans have the idea that the
Offices belong 70 the adherents of their
party The Republican party had such a
long lease of power that it's ofice-holding
members seem TO think that the govern
meut cannot get along without them, and
this view appears TO be shared by the re-
publican papers.
Tho truth is the republican office hold
ers and office seekers have been shown
too much consideration, both by this ad-
ministration and Mr.. Cleveland's first ad-
minlsuation. They are not satisfied with
liberal concessions. They want every
thing
1t is worthy of notice that the demo
cratic Office holders were not
shown much consideration by
President Harrison's administration
They We're hustled out of their places
quickly when that administration came
into power, and few, if any democrats
were given Offices. Consequently, when
the present administration was inaugu-
rated most all of the places were occupied
by republicans
The republican papers have no good
grounds for complaint against Secretary
Smith. He is only doing what his repub-
lican predecessor did. When he has a
place to dispose of, in making a selection
for it he gives the preference to a demo
crat. 1t would be rather remarkable if
he did otherwise. Even the republicans,
while accepting his favors, would laugh
at his simplicity
Notwithstanding the fact that he incurs
the displeasure of the republican papers,
Secretary Smith will continue to
take care of democrats. He finds that
they render as valuable service as
the republicans ever did, and besides,
they are thoroughly in accord with the
administration, and are anxious for it to
succeed. Secretary Smith is not violating
any law, written or unwritten and as his
Office appointing policy is approved by his
party, it is not at all likely that they will
change that policy to suit the repubh-
cans. He is not so much concerned
about securing the good will of repub-
licans as he is about winning the APP
prevail of democrats.

you NAV Have Shot NV Row. y

My father had been summoned from a
neighboring state, says A Il. Nickerson, in
Scribner's, and. soon after he came, an Incl
dent occurred that aptly illustrates the pecu-
liar phases of this war. He became very much
interested in the confederate soldier who was
lying in my tent, and was careful to divide any
luxury he got for me with him The man
though apparently grateful, said little, and,
think, half suspected that my father was not
aware that he belonged to the confederate
army One day. however, the old gentleman
had prepared a couple OF milk punches and,
while johnnie was partalying Of his, he sud
denly asked him to what regiment he be-
longed. The patient hesitated for moment,
and then answered;
The til Mississippi"
THE til Mississippi" echoed the good
samaritan, as he staggered and nearly fell to
the ground. Why said he, you may be
the very man who shot my boyi' and the
tears sprang to his eyes al the thought. In a
moment more he had recovered his equanirni-
ty, and taking the wounded Confederate by
the hand, said: Never mind, my boy pardon
me for having such an unwelcome thought.
| am sure you believed you were doing your
duty. whatever you did
was quite proud that, from this time on
until all the Confederates were removed from
among the Union troops and placed In camp
by themselves, my father showed the man
even more attention than he did me, SO anx-
ious was he to demonstrate that he made no
difference because he might have shot his
boy"

There is no iudicationof any purpose on

would call an extra session Of congress in

such a session was too strong to resist,

is any bullying or coaxing it will be by
the people. who are thoroughly alarmed
by the threatening aspect Of the financial
outlook
The President, so far as anybody knows
has no intention of trying to force con-
Pressmen to accept his views on the silver
question When congress meets, the re
sponsibility of finding a remedy for the
disturbed financial condition of the coun-
try will rest upon that body. The Presi-
dent will point out the object for which
the extra session was called, and then
say, in all probability, that the thing TO
be done, in his opinion, to prevent greater
financial disasters than have yet afflicted
the country, is to repeal, Internationally,
the silver purchase clause of the Sherman
act of 1890 When he has done that, he
will have done his full duty The coun-
try will not expect him to do anything
more. 1t will look to congress for the re
lief that is so greatly needed and 50 ur-

Senator Teller does not add to his
reputation as a statesman by insinuating
that it is the purpose of the President to
coax and bully the peoples representa-
tives into doing what they are called
upon to do and what the whole country
expects them to do He virtually admits
that the silverites have weak case by
suggesting the probability of congress
men being coaxed and bullied into voting
for the repeal of the silver-purchase
act.

Two HYpoerites.


from the chicago journal.
She sat in her coy chamber
With the curtains all drawn tight,
Curled up in a great big rocker
Fair and sweet in the soft lamplight
A bonbon box on the table
With the choicest of sweets was filed
Which she daintily nibbled while writing
The words that her lover thrilled:
"Oh, l long for you now, my darling
Without you my life seems drear;
There is never bit of comfort
For me unless you are near"
And her lover read the letter
AS he sat in his bachelors den.
With his feet cooked upOu the mantel,
In the usual way of men,
With a box of cigars at his elbow.
And pipe and glass near by,
And the smoke clouds wreathed above him
AS he echoed her lonely cry:
"Oh, long for you now, my darling!
Without you my life seems drear;
There is not a bit of comfort
For me unless you are nearI'

Some Facts For the city Authorities,

Some Facts For the City Authorities.
During a short walk one afternoon
recently an observer noticed that on the
grass plot of one of the public squares a
bonfire had recently been built. The turf
on a space several feet in diameter was
burned TO ashes, and around the ashpile
the turf had been torn and disfgured by
running and jumping upon it. That section
of the square was an eyesore.
Directly across the walk itappeared that
a watermelon feast had been held. Kinds
and seeds were scattered over the place as
though it had been expected that a lot of
pigs would be along directly A little
further along in another square, base
ball game was in progress on the grass.
Half bricks had been awaited of for bases,
and the players were scurry-
ing around like mad, kicking and
tearing up the beautiful turf,
while thirty or forty spectators
lolled about the grass and added to the
vandalism
In still another square there
were old papers and litter enough to make
a fairly good-sizcd compost heap. while
several limbs We're hanging half broken
from the trees. These little parks, the
lungs of the city, it is needless to
observe, have cost considerable money.
There are strict ordinances governing
their care, aud these laws are supposed
to be enforced The manner in which they
are enforced is made plain by the forego-
ing recital. If the squares are not to bc
the things Of beauty and pleasure that
they were intended to be, let's quit spend
ing money on them, repeal the ordinances
and lease the lots for pastures.

All About a Nose.

An amusing church trial in an Ohio town
has recently come to an end; very
proper and logical thing for it to do, in
asmuch as the trouble was all about a
woman's nose. Last Christmas the
women's church society gave an enter
tainment. One of the lady managers was
so enthusiastic that her efforts amounted
to domineering. Discussing the matter
a lady observed that she was "too
smart" Eyes" said a gentleman of the
company, "that can be told from the
shape of her nose" That remark was
the cause of laughter, and later of war.
The insinuation about her nose was re-
peated to the lady of the unorthodox
olfactory organ, with those clever and
cutting little embellishments that some
church society people frequently employ.
OF course she was enraged. She ponced
upon the de5ractor of her nose and de-
manded an apology. But his attempt
at an explanation only made matters
worse. He insisted that he had said
nothing derogatory, and that his
remark must have been perverted
by her informant. Back to the inform
ant she few ana got an affidavit setting
forth that the nose had been maligned
in the manner and at the time and
place aforesaid, and that deponent could
prove it. The lady with the nose then
denounced the nose critic as a falsifer
and a slanderer, and drought him up"
before the church. Lawyers were engag-
ed by both sides and the case came to
e &c
church. with the pastor as judge. The
congregation divided about equally be-
tween the defendant and his
wife, who was made a party to
the defense, and the prosecutor
with the nose. Testimony was taken,
witnesses were cross-examined with the
effect of bringing out numerous little pet
ty quarrels and spites. and the lawye rs
made arguments. Then the pastor ana
jury got in an exceptionally fine piece OF
work in the verdict. They found that
the defendants were not guilty of false
hood and had never reflected in any way
upon the plaintiffs nose; and they fur
thor found that the nose in question, so
far from being unor5hodoS, was good,
christian organ, worthy of grazing any
face, even one of a martyr ofpltience ami
long-suferiug. OF course such tactful
verdict could have but one efre,t the wo-
men all kissed each other, the men shook
hands and everybody was happy.
Notwithstanding the fact that 'timcs
are hard" in Georgia, there is much in
the situation to be grateful for While
money has grown tighter, its purchasing
power has grown greater and the needs
of the people fewer. These facts are
illustrated thus by the Rev Sam Jones
Il bought good pair of breeches the
other day at Emlnence for. sixty cents
and was offered a shirt for less money
than the pants cost. With sugar at five
cents a pound and "sasifac" roots for
the digging, we will all make the landing
somehow or somehow else" With
pants at sixty cents pair, and sassa-
fras and sugar in abundance, what more
does Georgian actually want during the
hot weather. Not much, to be sure; it
viii be noticed that Mr.. Jones did not
purchase the shirt.
