who, on that account, has severed
his connection with the paper.

Atkins0n'S Boast.

Mr. Atkinson said in speech in
the campaigns Just closed that not
single nominee on the populist ticket
would carry his home county. What's
the matter with Washington, Eman-
uel, jackson and Barlow counties
and Hall county, where both the can
didates for secretary of state live:
There the democrats only had a ma
iority of .38. Every county surround
ing Washington gave populist ma
jority except one, while every county
surrounding Coweta gave also &
populist majority except one. Judge
Hines carried Mr.. Atkinson's con-
gressional district; also his senate
rial district, and made it decidedly
interesting for the gentleman even in
his own county of Coweta.
Now, 1t does appear to Us down
here, Mr. Atkinson, that that fellow
whom you said ''thinks he is running
against me- did do something like
"strille a ot."-Augusta Herald.
The Augusta Heraldi Is prodding
Mr.. Atkinson for little bit Of in
formation. Listen; Come, Mr.. At
kinson, you told US in Augusta, that
everybody in Coweta county, white
and black, is going to vote for me,
and there is more votes to the square
inch up there than you ever saw"

Cutlery Indefenslhle.O

The Atlanta Journal, the most
outspoken administration paper in
Georgia, has the following to say Of
the democratic thieving of last
Wednesday
We do not hesitate to say that the
throwing out of votes in several
counties at the recent state election,
because of purely technical imper-
fections III the returns, is utterly in
defonsib!o. 1t is not enough to say
(what We believe to be true) that
elections in Georgia are conducted
more fairly than they are In most
ofthe states. They should be abso,
lutely fair. The grayer sins of
others do not excuse our own short
comings.
Ii our election laws are imperfect
let us amend them at the first oppor-
tunity.
If election managers anywhere
violate the law they should be in
dicted and punished. A violation of
the ballot is a crime and must be so
considered. We believe the people
of Georgia have made up their minds
that no tampering or trickery at
elections shall be tolerated, and the
man or gang which attempts to do
go is in danger of heavy but just
retribution.
Give us an honest and incorrupti-
BILE ballot.

Come At Them again.

The populists Of Whitfield were
not quite as successful as their breth-
rem in other counties, but the Dalton
Peoples Tribune shows the spirit Of
the true reformer in these words:
Democracy has won in Whitfield
county. Starr and Longley are no
doubt elected by a good majority.
We haven't heard anything definite
from Murray county, but no doubt
the democrats have been successful.
Gordon has elected her populist can
didate Tor representative, but Colo
mel Starr got majority over Gid
dens. Atkinson is a long ways
behind his ticket in the state, and the
prospects at the present are favora-
bic for Judge Hines election. From
4 private telegram we learn that out
of nine of the largest counties in the
state Atkinson received only 5000
majority. Gentlemen, it is over, and
if the worst has come we accept it as
cheerfulIy as possible while we buckle
on our armor little tighter and spit
on our hands and come at you again.
We have enlisted for the war or dur
ing life, and we will hang our ban
ner on the outside wall and continue
to battle Ior The oppressed laborers

About Chiffon.

In the "Commeroial and Financial
Chronicle" of New York, DUNE
1894 we Fl I'D the report Of Presi-
dent James O. Bloss, Of the New
York Cotton Exchange.
1t is juicy reading. Bloss says
that
"The transactions in cotton for
future delivery have aggregated 49,
962,300 bales'-during the twelve
months ending with May, 1894.
Bloss also says that the sales of
real cotton, spot cotton, amounted to
295,575 bales.
Bloss also says that "another An
ti-optiou bill has been introduced
into the House of Representatives
and is now awaiting consideration
and debate by that body. n Il =
1t is to be hoped that Congress will
see the wisdom of defeating the
measure, etc"
The hopes Of Bloss are we'll sup
ported by a stout underpiuuing of
previous democratic record. The
fact that the platforms, notably Of
Georgia democracy demands the
passage of law to prevent this
gambling in Cotton futures, gave the
best of reasons for Bloss to hope
that nothing would be done.

platform is almost ike seeing it in
one of Joe James speeches.
Did not a democratic House in
1892, previous to the elections, pass
the anti-option bill aud claim credit
for it with the public?
And did not that same House
afterwards, when the elections were
over, vote it down when it came
back FROM the Senate ?
Certainly it did. Consequently,
Bloss is not man who 'hopes" in
the dark. He knows what he is
talking about. The auti-ortion bill
he speaks Of passed the House, just
as in 1892, and hangs fire in the
Senate. After the elections are over
it will be defeated in obedience to
the wishes Of the New York Cotton
Exchange.
The peerless Christian statesman
who now holds our seat in Congress
by virtue of the extraordinary voting
capacity of his city, was one of those
who had the courage and conscien-
tious manhood to vote on the side OF
the gamblers, in spite Of the fact that
the platform upon which he was
elected demanded that he should
vote against them.
Such lofty courage as this would
be rare, if it had not become so COM
mon. 1t must be very encouraging
to the spectators to find that our
peerless Christian statesmen are so
bold and so conscientious as to come
out fearlessly in favor OF gambling,
when the platform and the campaign
pledges tried to hamper them with
vows in behalf OF morality.
But the question we started out
to ask is this: if the New York
Cotton Exchange sells in one year
forty millions of bales of imaginary
cotton, and only two hundred and
ninety five thousand bales of real
cotton, is not that fact a proof chat
the price OF real cotton is most Sc
riously affected by the sales OF ticti-
tious cotton?
As we understand it, the speoula-
tors sell 40,O00,O0O bales during the
year in the New York Cotton En-
change "a concern which handles
less than half million bales OF real
cotton.
OF course the statement that 49,
000,000 bales were sold for future
delivery carries with it tie PROPOSE
/ ton that 100000 bales have to be
bought to fill the contracts. Thus
it might seem that a balance would
be maintained.
But everyone knows that 10000
600 bales Of real cotton cannot be
really sold, simply because the
worlds supply does not furnish the
means Of satisfying the contract with
actual cotton.
|. Therefore, what is tho situation?
These huge transactions in imagi-
nary cotton dwarf the dealings in
actual cotton; and in the great bat
tie between the spectators in foti-
tious cotton the owner Of real cotton
gets run over.
Turning to the report for the Liv-
erpool market we find that for the
week ending June ,, 1894, the Gales
OF spot cotton were 5000 bales, while
the sale Of futures were 37G,500
bales.
Between September /, 1898, and
June, 1894, Liverpool sold 1,658,70
bales of ''fulures."
When the great commercial cen
tres are gambling on cotton to the
amazing extent these figures show,
does the man who deals in actual
cotton stand any chance OF having
his property priced upon apy legiu-
mate basis?

'erity" which he knows they do not

perity" which he knows they do not
possess.
Hoke has gone back to Washing
ton, and he had hardly hit the ground
before he began to explain the re-
cent Earthquake in Georgia.
If Hoke had only come earlier and
spoken oftener no amount of vote
stealing could have kept Hines from
being Governor.
We regard Hoke as the very best
.campaigner the pops. had in the
field.
If he and Cleveland and Sherman
just keep up their present gait we
will guarantee populist President
in 1896.
According to the Washington
Post the Deficiencies for this fiscal
year will amount to S11, 100000.
In other words the appropriations
made by Congress will fall short of
the expenses incurred by them to
the extent of $11,0O0,000.
Thus the Claim of democratic
economy is gradually sneaking under
the bed.
They claimed to have saved $685.
100000 in expenses as compared to
the Billion dollar Congress.
But what were the items? One of
them was the Sugar Bounty expense
of $12,00O,000.
Did they save us that item? Yes
by giving US Tariff tax on Sugar
which will cost us $43,000,000.
That sort of economy which swaps
an expense Of S12,0O0,000 for one of
$43,000,0o0 could only be boosted
of by q party which promised ''moro
money" and gave us less.
Taking their own figures, for the
sake Of argument, their $12,000,O00
saving on the Sugar Bounty proves
to be a loss to the taxpayers Of $751;
100000.
Then bear in mind that according
to the Washington Post it will re-
quire 100000 more to meet the
debts made by this economical con-
greas.
Add these two ugly facts together
and you get a lovely result which the
Office holders call democratic
eoonomy."
Such economy as this is enough to
make a government mule weep.
