BRING IN Y0UR COTTON.

Every bale of cotton brought to Daw-
son finds a prompt purchaser at the
highest market price for cash.
There is no better cotton market
Farmers who bring their cotton here
can be sure of getting the most for it
that any body can pay. The supply of
money is ample, and Dawson cotton buy
ers will pay every cent that it is worth
for every bale of cotton offered.
The most of the hard times is over,
and the move upward begun.
Dawson has faith in the future and
wants to lead that movement.

Dawson wants system of waterworks
and sewerage. Well, she ought to have
it, for there is nothing that eXcels a good
system of waterwvrks and sewerage.
Albany knows, for she has system that
is unequalled. Albany wishes Dawson
good luck on the waterworks question:
Albany News and Advertiser.
The above item sounds queer when it
is woIl-known fact everywhere that for
two years Dawson has been enjoying the
benfts of one of the best systems OF
waterworks in tins whole state. The
young man who presides over our Al
bany contemporary should get away
from home and see something Or read
his exchanges and keep posted. Daw-
son is at Least two years ahead of Albany
on the waterworks question.

THE wires Saturday afternoon flashed
the news over the country and through
out the world that child was born at
the White House, and the Pr esident and
Mrs. Cleveland were blessed with ar
other little daughter. The arrival of
the new conner, which occurred at noon
that day, seemed to put the capitol and
the country in good humor. The fami-
lies of the cabinet, and other prominent
)vernment officials, senators and 9th
ers, called at the White House during
the afternoon and rendered congratula-
tions to the President, and later, when
the news went abroad, kilograms of con-
gratulations were sent to the White
House from all parts of the country.
Unusual interest attaches to the event

VERY TRUE.

In his speech in the senate, advocating
the unconditional repeal of the Sherman
act, Senator Gordon said:
AS Democrats we made the people
four explicit promises, and we qualified
these promises with but one proviso or
condition, namely, that the people
would turn out the republicans and
turn over the government to us. These
four promises were:
To reform the tariff.
To repeal the sherman law.
To place gold and silver upon an equal
footing, and
To abolish the tax upon State bank
issues.
The people believed us They relied
upon our promises They complied
with our proviso. They turned out the
republicans. They turned over the
government to us, and now with anXi-
Gus, if not with agonizing, suspense,
they wait 10 see what we are going to do
with it.
| confess, ST., that | see but one course
left to US. 1t is to make our perform
ance as straightforward and practical as
our pledges were explicit. We cannot af-
ford to be charged hereafter with be-
guiling voters before the election with
promises made only to be broken after
the election.
If all of the above pledges are carried
out in good faith the people will be sat
isfied; but if the Sherman act alone is to
be repealed, and the other three, or eth
er of them, are ignored or evaded, the
democratic misses will not be satisfied,
and the party viii suffer before the peo-
PIE at the next election"
These are true and weighty utteranoes,
and we II pc that the democrats in con-
gress may heed them. If none Of the
demands of the democratic platform are
enacted into law, the congressman who
violate or ignore their promises had as
well get ready to step down and out.
KANSAS is actually talking about Sc

south to see Kansas secede, but for US

WHIPPED THE BOYS.
Eight Kentucky Mothers Execute the
Laws Decree.

Kentucky walks at the head of the process
sion for novel methods of Furnishing Grim
inals. At Harrodsburg. few days ago. eight
colored boys, ranging in age from eight to
fourteen years, were caught breaking into
house whose owners were absent for the
summer. They were arraiSned in the polio"
court before Judge Caldwell.
Using his discretion, he called the mothers
Of the young offenders into court. He pro-
posed TO them that if they would give the
boys first-class whipping in court he would
not send them to the penitentiary.
The women eagerly accepted the PROPOSE
ton and promised there would be whipping
in town that would go down III history. In
the morning the space in front Of the
Judges bench was cleared, the mothers
seized the eight struggling sons and time
was called. Rawnides cut the air and fell
with terrible force on the backs of the thinly
clad culprits.
There was yell that started t, people
and lasted for the next fifteen minutes.
Blood was brought in more than one in
stance. Once the Judge interfered TO
prevent too serious beating for one OF the
boys. When he thought they were suffi-
GENTLY punished they were led down the
street. Every one Of them is likely to carry
to his grave some mark of the thrashng. 4

other forage comes from all parts Of Europe.
France, Germany and Belgium will take the
largest quantities We are making an effort
in the Agricultural Department to secure
some statistics as to the amount Of beef con-
sumed in this country. 1t is difficult
thing to do because of the absence of any
figures on the subject Tbs farmers have
suffered greater losses on beer IN the last ten
wears than on any other product. and still
the strange fact remains that beef is the only
product OF consequence which does not figure
in the speculative markets. There is no
dealing in futures or options on beef.
