COTTON AND CORN.
Important Bulletin by the Depart
ment of agriculture.

ment OF Agriculture.
Atlanta, Ga, Sept. 9.-The department
Of agriculture to-day issued an important
bulletin on the condition Of cotton and
corn.
Cotton shows falling of of nearly 2
per cent. At the beginning of the season
the stand and prospect throughout North
Georgia was the best reported to the de-
partment for a mum Der of years under ia
Voraole seasons. Rapid regeneration and
development have taken place. and now
IN TINS section the crop is in better
condition than in any portion of the
state Southwest Georgia. on the contrary,
gave gromlse of good yield tea rig in the
season, whereas now, with the exception
OF East Georgia, poorer condition and
prospect IS reported than in any other
section Of the state. The falling o.
through Southern and Middle GEORGIA is
due to a development of weed under the
influence of copious rains without the
plants properly fruiting. The August re-
port shows a magnificent promise of
large yield Of corn, but at this time the
condition is not quite so favorable, show
ing falling of Of about 5 per cent. Not
withstanding this, the prospect may be
regarded as fine, especially in North
Georgia, which has not fallen of.
Farmers are congratulated on this. es-
pecially in view Of the fact that at one
time during the season the crop was very
unpromising. The cotton prospect, as
compared to an average of 100, is $40 and
corn 90 2-5. Commissioner Nesbitt urges
planters to be more careful in baling their
cotton. The American crop, he says, is
worse baled than that of any country,
and the farmers have TO bear the burden
of this handicap, because deductions are
made for this careless baling.

Five of US had been detailed to stav

Charleston. When the squad which
was going to Charleston went TO the
depot, where the fight took place. we
went with them. While we were there
Billy Floyd and Rogers, the man
who started the whole thing, got
into an alteration. Floyd got the
best of it. About that time a negro
driver for the Enterprise hotel at

McLendon refused to let the negro at
tack Floyd, who had done the con-
stables several good turns so that they
liked him. McLendon told the negro to
stand back. Then the
TELEGRAPH OPERATOR

asked what McLendon had to do with it.,
McLendon said that he did not have
anything to do with it, but he did not
propose to see Floyd crowded. The
operator went back into the Office and
Rogers got in the bus and went up town.

with five friends. Rogers renewed the
difficulty with Floyd and cursed the latter
fearfully. He went toward Floyd, but

commanded the crowd to disperse. The
crowd refused to do so, ,and Rogers again
cursed Floyd. Floyd said he would not
stand 1t, and moved on Rogers. The

UNION OF WEST and SOUTH
NEW POLITICAL PARTY, WITH A FREE
COINAGE PLATFORM.
NATIONAL MEETING PROPOSED.
Democratic Congressman Who
Want to Repudiate Forever
Eastern Domination on Finan-
cial Matters - Vigorous War
Declared Against the Single
Gold standard Crowd.

WASHINGTON, March 31.-President
Cleveland's veto of the Bland bill has
resulted in a proposition for national
convention of the West and Southwest,
to form new political party based on
the demand for the free coinage of Sill
yer. The proposition comes from GER
tain radical Democratic congressman
who believe that the time has
arrived when the party's salvation in
the West and South demands that it
should repudiate, once and forever.
Eastern domination on financial politics.
Western and Southern Democrats who
are at the head of this movement de-
clare that the veto of the Bland bill
shows that the administration has set
its face toward the single gold standard.
Representative McLaurin (Dem.,S. c.
has taken the bold initiative in this
step. He has prepared the proposition,
and 1t will be followed, he says, by
call signed by Democratic silver con-
greSSmen.
Mr.. McLaurin says that he has talk ed
with many of the Southern and Western
members of congress. and he has yet to
find single Democrat who has not
agreed with him that the time has come
when Eastern financial ideas must be
repudiated.
First, he says, it was thought that
this movement should take the form of
a convention of the governors of the
ly separated geographically it was
feared that uuited action could not
be obtained. 1t was therefore
decided to call a national conven
ton. He said in the fight that he be-
Iieved was to follow the dividing line
would be the Allegheny mountains and
the Potomac river-the South and West
against the East. Party lines would not
necessarily be drawn. Members of all
parties would be invited. The issue
would be solely monetary one.
Representative Tracy Dem.. n. ",
the anti-silver leader of the house, says
of the proposed national convention of
the South and West to form a new
party:
1t is rule or ruin proposition which
cannot prove effective. 1t will simply
atrsnEthen tie administration. 1t
would be queer spectacle to see the
Snuth reject the alliance of New York.
The interests Of the South depend upon
their ability to co-opesate with Demo-
cratic states of the North. Even if
such movement proved effective, it
could only result in dividing the Demo-
cratic vote in the North and giving the
Northern states to the Republicans.
The South will not jeopardize its own
interests by carrying such movement
very far.
Representative Bland said that the
plan had not yet been submitted to him.
He was inclined to regard it as chimer-
ical. but said that the Democrats in the
South and West would never again be
fooled. They would put none but tried
and true silver men on guard hereafter.
A carefuklinquiry among other Demo-
cratic congressman indicates that very
few are now prepared to join MIR. Nc
Laurin's new party. Most of them say
the movement Will result in nothing
important.
