Some of the North Georgia papers are
telling joke to the effect that a certain
South Georgia convention demanded in
its platform the parity of one or both" of
the money metals. If any such demand
were made there can be no doubt that the
sense of the convention was for sound
money. There may have been some con-
fusion as to the terms, but there is no
hiding the fact that the South Georgians
wanted money every dollar of which was
of equal value.

The Georgia state campaign may be
expected to take on boom within the
next few days. The statesmen up at
Washington will shortly be free to come
home and get to work in their special pre-
serves, and then things will hum Gen.
Gordon has written to democratic head
quarters that he will make speeches for
the state ticket, and Senator Walsh and
each of the eleven representatives may be
depended upon to do some general, as well
as personal, campaigning Added to the
thirty-eight speakers Chairman Clay
now has on his list, the Washington con
tingent will swell the number of spell
binders to take the field TO ffty-one. Mr..
Clay says he wants sixty. There should
be little difficulty in making up the short
age of nine.

Five years ago the farmers alliance of
North Carolina had a membership of
more than 100000. Last week according
to the statement of Marion Butler, chair
man of the state alliance executive COM
mittee, it had a membership of 27.500. In
North Carolina alliance" and ''populist
party are almost synonymous terms

The New York World took the pains to
interview James j. Corbett on the ac-
ceptance by the House of the Senate
tariff bill. But by an unaccountable
lapse of its usual enterprise, it failed to
get the opinions of Ida Wells, George
Francis Train, Jesse Pomeroy, John L.
Sullivan and Commander Booth of the
Salvation Army on the same subject.

Mr. Populist Peek appears to be play
ing against cold deck" this time The
populists have stacked the cards against
him, and he cannot draw anything worth
having. He wanted the governorship
nomination again, and didn't get it, then
he tried for the congressional nomination
in the Fifth district, and missed that also.
However, it must afford Mr.. Peek some
comfort 70 know that he will, without
being nominated, come just as near get
ting the goVernorship as Judge Hines, and
just as near going to congress from the
Fifth as Mr.. Robert Todd.

The average reduction in duties made

37.37 per cent, on woods 257O per cent,

A primary election was held by the re
formers" of South Carolina last Saturday
for the purpose of settling the matter of
the reform" party's candidate for gov
ernor. 1t seems however, that the pri-
mary didn't settle anything. John Gary
Evans, the favorite of Gov. Tillmau, re-
ceived the greatest number of votes But
some Of the other reform candidates
refuse to be governed by the result of the
primary. DIR. Sampson Pope says he is
into to the fight to the finish, and others
will probably be with him. There are
charges Of fraud and rottenness in the
reform primary, for which the kickers
will try TO get even at the regular demo-
cratic primaries and conventions The
Columbia Register charges that in
Charleston county, which went for
Evans, there were such frauds as were
never attempted in the old days of the
''oligarchy' against which the Tillman-
ties have made successful war. On the
whole, it appears that the South Carolina
campaign will continue red-hot until the
day of the election.

They Created the Trust.

The New York Tribune calls the tariff
bill, which was sent to the President yes
terday, IAN infamous Bill of Sale to the
Sugar Trust"
The Tribune has overlooked the fact
that the Republican party, of which it is
the leading organ, practically created the
sugar trust. There was not much of a
sugar trust before the Mckinley tariff
was enacted. That tariff gave life to it.
1t provided it with raw sugar and gave
it protection to the extent of 60 cents per
100 pounds
AS soon as the Mckinley tariff went
into operation the sugar retners got to-
gether and formed the trust. All compe-
tiJion was prevented by the combination.
The re6nerles that were not needed were
closed, and only as many were operated
as were required to meet the demand for
refined sugar. The price of sugar was
put just as nigh as it was possible TO put
it without permitting refined sugar to be
imported,
The bill that the democratic congress
has passed reduces the protection for the
trust from 60 cents per 100 pounds to 49,
cents. That is very great reduction.
Tt will reduce the profits of the trus sew
eral millions of dollars a year
What an amount of gall the Tribune
must have in the face of such facts as
these to designate the democratic tariff
bill as IAN infamous Bill of Sale to the
Sugar Trust" But, then, the republican
papers never have any regard for the
facts when discussing political questions.

week ending April Z, issued by the
West Virginia State Weather Service.
Weather Condition Averages for

degrees; sunshine, 43 per cent; daily
rainfall 600 inch. Temperature,
amount OF sunshine and precipitation
were all below the normal during the
week. Snow occurred on the 9Th and

Light rains occurred on the Ist, I'd !,
4th. 5th 9th. and eth.
Fruits is still too early vet to
draw any definite conclusions regard
ing the full amount of damage done to
fruit. All correspondents join in the
assertion that the freeze and frosts were
immensely injurious. In some coun-
ties all the early fruit is killed, in 9TH
ers the apples, at least, are recovering
and buds coming out again. The
greatest damage was done to peaches,
the claim is made that there will vel
be some that will be safe. Late apples
are probably unhurt Some cherries
are budding again. Plums show nc
signs of recovery as yet. On ths
whole, the prospect for fruits is rathel
discouraging. especially is this th1
case as regards early varieties.

The Weather.

The months of March and April af-
forded US nothing but weather. Some
fluid, some frozen, and sometimes a
mixture, slush, sometimes sunshine,
but always weather. We meet
man in the street, tits Good morning;
l think we'll have rain to-day" eDid
you hear the whistler The weather
clerk. Van Metre, certainly gave the
wrong signal to-day. It is going to
rain; it is raining now; the whistle
said clear" One tells how the bar
oneter stands. Another dilates on
the course of the wind. At din
ner, it is the topic of conversation and
forecast is coniectured for the after
noon In he stores, nothing is
bought or exchanged until ones pri-
vate views are disclosed, not only of
to-day's weather, but yesterdays and
the season in general. You give
your idea of the weather in your sec
ton Of the State. and You state the
conditions of the horoscope of sold
prob on the Pacific Slope, and then
you hastily make pacific slope"
out the door to inspect the same
weather. and the question is whether
we are not too much concerned about
the weather at any rate. Verify tie
weather is a most prolific source Of
conversation. Where would we be
without it IN March or April.
