We can most heartily endorse the
following strong words Of endorse
ment of one of Arkansas purest, best
statesment, from the Bentonville Dem
ocrat:
"After the adjournment of Con
gress for the holidays Senator Berry
delivered a speech in the Senate or
the repeal of the Federal election laws
In the discussion of this subject ouI
Senator was peculiarly at home
Among the many good and sount
speeches that he has delivered in th,
Senate this is one of his best. Wher
it comes to the defence Of the South
or the state of Arkansas particularly
our Senator can always be relied up,
On. He comprehends the chivalry
and patriotism Of our citizens, and nc
man has higher estimate of th,
virtue of our women. HIS tongue
never ISLANDERS or misrepresents Th,
men trust him and the women low,
him. He cares for the interst of th'
one, and is ever ready in the defense
OF the innocence and virtue of the 9th

PROMPT ACTION NECESSARY

The following comes so near our
own ideas of what IS reqired to give
relief to the country that we take
pleasure 10 copying it from the Allan.
ia Constitution.
There seems to be vague idea
that Democratic Congressman have
no opinions of heir own and that 1t is
the duty of every selfish element and
interest to back them up in corner
and proceed TO "educato" them. And
this idea, vague as it is, seems TO have
some basis. Men who at home were
for the free coinage Of silver are for
the single gold standard in Washing
ton, and there have been changes on
the tariff question.
But what about the platform2
What about the simple solemn
pledges made to the peopleP These
II seems to us, should have prece.
dence over selfish interests that buzz
around Congress and over the ere
tchets Of individuals.
The platform first and promptness
next! That is true Demo ratio poll.
cy! Fling crotcbets and selfish inter.
ests to the winds and carry out the
Democratic programme without de-
lay.
Remove the doubt and uncertainty
that have taken possession of the vast
merchantile and business interests Of
the country.
Pass the Wilson bill Push it
through promptly Anything is better
than delay
Repeal the tax on state banksl
Tolerate no bond issueI

enough to bear 1t.

The Committees Meet Tomorrow Night
and Arrange for the Mass Meeting.


There will be a meeting of the cam
paign committee appointed by the execu-
tive committee at the city court room in
the court house tomorrow night, at which
this committee will meet and confer with
the committees of three appointed by
each of the political clubs of the city. Mr..
w. w. Star is chairman of the campaign
committee.
The meeting will be held principally for
the purpose of comforting with Col r. Il.
Lester and ascertalning his desires with
regard to the democratic rally that is to
be held the night before the election. Col.
Lester is heartily in favor of the move
ment, but as to the manner of holding the
meeting he has determined to leave il en-
tirely to the campaign committee, and it
may be set down as certain that if the
weather permits it the meeting will be
held out in the open air in the park ex-
tension.
A meeting at which 5000 or 1000 voters
shall gather is contemplated, as the
strongest kind of effort viii be made here
to build up Col. Testers majority to
what the democrats have been accus-
toned to giving their candidates in this
district. The committee is enthusiastic in
the work, and there is little doubt that 1t
will get out a large vote.

AT REST UNDER THE OAKS.
Mrs. Branch Laid by the Side Of Her
Soldier Sons.

Soldier Sons.
The funeral Of the late Mrs. Charlotte
S. Branch took place from the Independ-
ent Presbyterian church yesterday after
noon
The congregation was composed OF all
classes-those who had enjoyed the inti-
mate acquaintance Of the deceased and
loved and esteemed her for her many
noble qualities. others who had benefited
by her many acts Of kindness. The num-
Der of confederate veterans and older
citizens present was especially noticeable.
There were also many who knew the de-
ceased lady only by reputation. and who
testified their appreciation of her worth
by attendance upon her obsequies.
The Oglethorpe Light Infantry. with
whose history the name of Branch is so
intimately associated, attended in a body
In full uniform, under command of Capt.
Rockwell. The company was without
arms. the officers carrying their side
arms. The presence of several gray
headed veterans. several Of whom were on
the field of first Manassas, where Lieut..
Branch lost his life was a notable fea-
ture Of the company's turnout. Some Of
those with the company were wounded in
tons of Mrs. Branch, whose funeral they
we're destined 70 attend IS years after
wards. The Savannah Cadets, of which
company Capt Hamilton L. Branch was
the commander for several years, at
tended in a body in citizens dress, as a
testimonial Of respect to the mother Of
their former captain.
The pall-bearers we're all old friends of
the deceased, who had been associated
with her in church. and charitable work.
They were: Mr.. II. f. Train, Mr.. Horace
A. Crane, DR.. Daniel Hops Maj. w f.
Shellman, Col. w. w. Gordon, Mr. c. NJ
Gilbert, Mr.. Lewis T. Turner and Capt.
George w. Lamar.
The Ogiethorpe Light Infantry occupied
seats on the left of the main aisle In the
rear of the pall-bearers. The children Of
the Savannah Female Orphan ASYLUM,
an institution which has received the
constant attention Of Mrs. Branch for
years, occupied seats on the right of the
pulpit. After the coffin had been placed in
the aisle the choir sang Rock of Ages.
DR.. Dripps read extracts from the psalms
and from the New Testament, expressing
confidence in the promises of God an1
the hope of glorious eternity. He fol-
lowed this with a prayer that the noble
life OF the deceased and her constant ex-
empli1cation of the principles of the
ligion which she protested might remain
as benediction and a constant reminder
to those among whom she had lived and
labored. There was no sermon, the SER
vices at the church concluding with the
hymn, Jesus, Lover Of My Soul. At the
grave the choir sang Nearer, My God. to
Thee, followed by short prayer by Dr.
Dripps. The grave was entirely covered
with most beautiful floral decorations.
The Oglethorpe Light Infantry preced-
ed the funeral cortege to the cemetery
on foot. The company turned out forty
two strong. This is probably the only
instance on record in this section OF
military honors being paid at the funer-
al of a lady,

LOOKS LIKE FOOT BALL.
The Season Coming on and Insurance
Agents Getting in Their Work.

There is no doubt about the approach of
the football season, and to all indications
it will soon be on in this section in full
blast. An insurance agent was in earnest
consultation with one of the prominent
players of the Savannah team yesterday,
and both seemed to be in earnest.
The amount of the policy wanted was
$1,000 against all accidents that might be
met with, and it seemed he considered the
precaution proper one He was not one
of the players who were bunged up in
last years games, however being one of
the strongest and stoutest men on the
team.
But when they begin to talk insurance
against accidents and life it begins to look
as the rules of the game have not pro-
vided the safe guards against injury which
were promised when the football associ-
alton met just after last season closed,
and tried to rule out some of the most OBJ
jectionable and most dangerous plays.
They say, however, that the game is not
so dangerous now as it was a year ago,
when the running solid column attacks
and wedges were used to a greater ex-
tent.
