Populists.
New YORK, June lS.-In an in
terview Maj. Evan p. Howell, pro-
prietor and editor in chief of the
Atlanta Constitution, said: Indica-
tions pointed to nomination of Will
liam Y. Atkinson, ex.speaker of the
legislature as the democratic cam
didate for governor. Campaign
which will follow democratic nomi-
nations will be hot one. Mr.Hines,
populist nominee, was perhaps
strongest candidate they could
have named and the fight will be
a lively one. The Democratic can
didate, however, will be elected,
Couldn't say by what majority, as
the strength of the Populists is
problematical. There are discon-
tented Democrats and no one
knows how many. Reporter asked
whether Speaker Crisp would be
senatorial candidate. Major
Howell replied: Hardly; the
Democrats will carry the legisla-
ture easily, but l do not think
Mr.. Crisp is likely to enter the
race. l think Mr.. Walsh will very
probably be reelected"

S. NJ. Picker for Congress.

the superior qualifications of Hon.
5. NJ. Pickler. of KirkSville as a
candidate for congress on the Re

not the honor of a personal ac-
quaintance with Mr.. Pickler. vet
we have known him by reputation
for years. We but voice the sen
timentS of great number in say
ing as a candidate against Hatch
he would be a winner. His great
ability coupled with his personal
magnetism would win votes for the
Republican party. We do not
know whether he desires to be a
candidate or not, but this much is
certain. from conversations with a
number of Republican voters of
Macon and Adair counties, his
candidacy would meet with gener-
favor in this "neck CT the woods. -

uct of American manufacture is
its way into home markets
purely on its merits. 1t has out
expectation in quality
while the once popular idea that
it could never equal the imported
plate has been effectually dissipat-
ed. Improved machinery is being
constantly devised and adopted,
giving an advantage to the Ameri-
can manufacturer over his Welsh
competitor. who. for various rea-
sons, is more or less tied to old
fashioned methods. 1t is now be-
yond cavil or dispute that the tin
plate industry of the United States
is maturing into national impor-
tance, and giving employment to
thousands of laborers who are re-
ceiving the money that went abroad
for tin plate before the Mckinley
bill took effect. In the light of
the facts it is not strange that
Democretic papers have ceased to
speak of the tin plate industry.

The Tin Plate Industry.

The present condition of the tin
plate industry is reported as en-
couraging and satisfactory. The
domestic plate is rapidly becom-
ing the choice of American users,
the imported article being only
solicited when the other is unob-
tainable. The Iron and Steel Di-
rectory, corrected up to March
1894, furnishes a complete and
authentic list of the timing plants
now in operation in the United
States. They are distributed as
follows: Massachusetts,. 1; New

pleted, 2 building and 1 partly
