are gaining IN numbers, largely

more surprising from the fact that
Harris was On 'StonewalR j Jackson's

within the past fifteen years the
house tops were covered with thin
coating of snow and sleet. The
mercury averaged about three or
four degrees below the freezing

of the people. I do not believe

The whole trouble lies in our sys-

more power in the hands of a few

the trend of public opinion and am
far from pleased with the outlook.
I do not look for any change in
our system until the people force

"The first financial panic we

q revolution which will not be

the overthrow of our system of

opportunity arrives they will be
used with fatal effect. The time
is ripe for revolution. The question
is, have the people a leader2 An

Mckinley was the orator OF the evening.
A significant feature Of the event was the
references made by almost every one Of the
speakers Co Gov. Mckinley as the one ana

The President Believed to Have De-
cided to Call 1t In the Fail.
WASHINGTON. March 29-To the few
congressman who have talked with him on
the subject the President has intimated that
he will call an extra session Of congress ID
dispose of the tariff question. No definite
time has been set, but the session will begin
either September or October.
Beyond the decision TO call an extra
session, no details for the consideration of
congress have been arranged, and the sub
Ject has progressed no further than the de-
termination to have congress meet in one or
the other of the months named. President
Cleveland, it is said, was led TO call the
session by the republican defeat
OF 1880 following so close on
the enactment Of the Mckinley
tariff law. He believes that fair test of
the new tariff law cannot bs had in few
months and, therefore, has deemed it wise
to have congress assemble two or three
months earlier than usual. Mr.. Springer
OF Illinois, chairman Of the committee on
ways and means, which is charged with the
preparation of the tariff bills, was Ques-
honed to-day relative to the time it would
take TO enact new tariff bill. He said
II would be- impossible for congress
TO enact any measure of the kind wanted
earlier than May, If the subject were con-
sldered at the regular session beginning in
december. An extra session would, of
course, bring the matter to q settlement by
Rs much quicker as it met in advance of the
regular date, ana would give the people
ialr opportunity TO judge of the merits or
demerlts of the measure adopted before the
general elections in November.

A KICK OVER THE CAMP.
SOME OF TIE TROOPS LEFT OUT

The Fourth Regiment OF Southwest
Georgia Companies May Have an
Encampment of It's Own-A tlanta's
Howl, of Course, the Loudest of All.
The Atlanta Rifles Talk of Trying to
Prevent Any Enoampment at ALL
ALBANY, GA, March 29.-The action of
the state military advisory board in exclud-
ing the Fourth Georgia regiment from the
encampment this year, will prove damper
on the lnen who compose It, and the result
Will be q decrease in the zeal and ardor
which has heretofore been manifested.
Many OF the men expect the coming en-
oampmeut to be the last one, and regard
their exclusion from it as a sort of slight
and slap in the face. However, it is pos
sible that the Fourth Georgia may have an
encampment Of its own. il it has TO pay its
own expenses to do so.
ATLANTA TROOPS ALSO KICKING.
ATLANTA, Ga, March 29.-The action OF
the military advisory board in emitting
the Fourth battalion Of Atlanta in the
troops ordered into camp this year, has
stirred up q decided revolution in local
military circles, Last night the Atlanta
Rifles held a big meeting, at which, by
AOAAlhA Eo5OAuJlOus, ~ was u9Clu6u TO UgDL
the action OF the board to the last ditch.
There was an informal conference between
the commanders of all the local companies
during the day relative to the encampment
affair, and the action OF the Rifles was
the result Of this canvass, other COM
panles having agreed to support vigorously
the stand taken by the Rifles. IL is claimed
that the board with malice aforethought
Disseminated against Atlanta. The At
lanta troops, it will be remembered, we're
shut out Of the Chickamauga encampment
and now to be side-traoked again while
other companies had the benefit of the
Chickamauga field as we'll as of Griffin last
year. has aroused the stagnant blood Of the
local heroes
A THREAT.
A leading spirit in the revolt against the
board said to-day that IL they could do so
rather than be sat down upon in any such
style by the governors colonies, the Atlanta
companies would employ legal representa-
tives and tie up the encampmsnt appropria-
tion, 30 that no encampment at all could be-
held unless all the companies IN the state
were given the benefit OF it. This appears
TO be foolish threat, however, for under
the law the entire force or any part OF it
may be ordered into camp Just as the gov-
ernor may see ht But the Atlanta hot
heads declare that they can and will make
a bad mess Of the enoampment unless some
thing is done TO soothe their sighted feel
tngs. One plan OF retaliation discussed Is to
withdraw from the state service and form
independent commands, inducing as many
other companies among those sighted by
the board TO follow as possible.

was no disturbance Of any kind in this SEC
ton last night and to-day things have been
caps or their friends have been seen on the
streets here to-day and reports from the
Hatchett neighborhood say the excitement
has died out Co some extent, but as soon as
it commences to be discussed the excitement
arises and threats emanate from the dead
mans sympathizers
John Hatohett made threats here yester-
day that be would avenge his brothers
death. Some one quietly intimated TO him
that his talk was sufficient grounds for the
authorities to arrest him, and he has so far
failed to swear out any warrants for the
arrest Of Mr.. Bsssett and his negroes. Mr..
Bassett on whose plantation the deed was
committed, was seen by the MORNING News
correspondent this morning. He reports
his hands at work, but they are very
watchful Of all who pass or approach. He
fears they will eventually leave him, as
they cannot stand the fear of white caps.
STOPPING DISCUSSION.
Through the influence and suggestions of
some Of the leading citizens here, discussion
Of the affair on the streets has been
discontinued to q very great extent.
By this means the conservative citizens
think the excitement will die out quicker
and this suggestion was a success.
Court oonvenes in Perry next Monday
and then the affair will be aired again and
the people dread the consequences, as they
fear many serious developments and results
from thorough investigation by the grand
jury. Until this is done the best informed
citizens think there will be no more out
breaks Of violence, and they hope the in
vestigation by the jury will put a stop to
any more in this section, as such lawIess-
ness demoralizes labor to an alarming ex-
tent, to the grave detriment of farmers,
especially at this season of the year, when
everything on the farm must move with
energy and coolness.
