The S ale Alliance paid their
farmer President, Hon. Elias Carr,
$500 a year-and that is all he cost
them. Their present THIRD patyPresi-
dent Butler, who is not a farmer,
for the first year Of his presidency

of $967.15. Quite a considerable diff
~ereuce, amt ii? And the balance
lshcet is vastly in favor of the Demo-

ond best" in the boys race The
time made by Lewis Giddens was
not beaten-by half q minute-by
those who rode for the "Champions

enter. The papers say that little
Will Hunter was the shit" of the
occasion and won the plaudits if not
the prize.
UNLESS the coIored people who
frequent excursions d be 'eper-
suaded" to behave better than is re-
ported was Tie conduct of many who

to the Railroad companies, in the
way of suits for damages on the part
of individuals who have their person
or property injured by law.ess ne
groes, than the revenue OH the
sale of tickets will cover.
