Some weeks ago a correspondent Of
the Asheville Citizen contributed this
beautiful and expressive tribute to the
women of the South
/ win sing you song Of a wonderful land,
Where the wheelwoman doesn't exist
Where the girl that you love IL as childish
and bland
AS the girl that your grandfather kissed
Where the boomers don't bloom, and the
skirts don't divide,
And the maidens box or make betsi
Oh, the girls of the South we assure you
with pride,
Don't talk slang and smoke cigarettes.
1t was so popular that the Atlanta
Constitution copied it without credit, it
travelled far and wide, resting moment
in the office Of the Toronto Telegram
From that paper it was copied with
editorial commentator into the Atlanta
Journal. The Citizen calls upon its
Atlanta contemporaries to give the credit
even at this late day.

WHAT A TRAVELLER SAW.

Wilmington Messenger,
In 1851, under the Liverpool minis
try, England demonetized silver. If the
intelligent reader would consult Macau-
lay, Allison and other we'll known au-
thorities he would see how terrible was
the disaster that overlook England in
the next ten or twelve years. But what
is the condition of England in 1895, after
nearly seventy years of gold only2 An
article in the Washington Post, a gold
paper, written by Cyrus G. Adams, said
to be a gentleman of high character,
gives a glimpse of study in England.
We make room for part of the picture:
''The traveller by train gets no idea of
the scores of hamlets along the country
roads where some industry has drawn
together a few hundreds of people.
Where is the village in America in which
one does not see well dressed and bright
looking young folks, whose appearance
indicates that books, pictures and music
have some part in their lives? We did
not see a single young woman in
dozans Of these English hamlets who
was not satterly, ragged and IN
mistakbly ignorant We saw chill
dren in their teens within fifty miles of
London, who said they never heard of
Dublin. The lowly brick cottages they
live in are not furnished as well as the
average Sixth ward tenement in New
York city. The same may be said of
many of the houses of the tenant farm
ers. These hamlets have not their coun-
terpart. When we remember that,
next to the French, the English peasan.
try are said to be the most prosperous in
Europe, we do not wonder that the Eu-
ropean poor emigrate by thousands in
hope of improving their condition"

THE BOSS BEGINS TO sQUIRM.

Senator Pritchard says that he was
misunderstood, contending that he said
the steering committee of Reps and Pops
would decide which party would take
the nomination for Governor, and
that after the committee had decided
which wing should have the plum, the
Convention would make the nomination.
1t is a distinc ion without difference.
The bosses compose "the committee" "
and will, as matter of form, permit the
Convention to ratify the work of the
committee. The Senator was talking
facts when he said the committee would
name the Governor He didn't intend
to give away the matter, but no amount
of explaining will explain away the Boss
Rule which is apparent even to children.

TO SELL OR NOT TO SELL?

To sell or not to sell-that is the ques
ton that is perplezing the cotton farm
ers who are able to hold. Mr.. Hector
p. Lane, President of the American Cot
ton Growers Protective Association, e5
Inmates the crop at six and a half mil
lion bales, and advises the farmers that
unGea present conditions their cotton is
worth 10 cents.
Commenting On Mr.. Lanes advice, the
Vicksburg Commercial Herald says:
'For Mr. Lanes motive we have the
highest respect. But We can but regard
his counsel to hold cotton Tor 10 2
cents as i'll advised and mischievous. He
would embark the whole b0dyof planters
on the dangerous and risky sea Of spec
ulation, where many Of their number
have already had such quantities Of sad
experience. He IS advising them, in
fact, to indulge what has always been
regarded as the besetting sin OF their
class-a proneness to hold cotton for
higher prices. The instances are rare in.
deed where cotton has been wisely held,
when good price can be had for it. 1t
is form of gambling surrounded with
more elements of uncertainty, and borne
upon by more strong and occult lnflu-
ences, than any other whatever. In the
range of our observation the planters
who have proved good judgment by sue
cess, recognize as the only safe rule the
sale of cotton as soon as 1t is ready for
shipment If man is inclined to take
any chances on the future of cotton that
is different matter. 1t is bad prac-
tee at best, but worse merged with legit-
innate business"

The death of Mr.. M. @. S. Cherry, an ex-

many miles around for long years as
''Uncle Mark" by all the young people.
He was an old fashioned, industrious,
economical farmer who made his bread
and meat when his neighbors were buy
ing from the West he kept the faith Of
Democratic simplicity, believing that
those men are best governed who are
least governed; he was true to his friends
and if he forgave his enemies he did it
after the pattern of Andrew Jackson; be
was honest and just, though he found it
hard always to be just to men whose
public career was contrary to bis idea Of
right; he had no love for Republican
and sincerely believed they were enemies
of the country; he was an original man,
forceful, energetic and aggressive. He
was a kindly man, and this writer en-
joyed such evidences Of his friendship as
to cause him to sincerely mourn the
death Of honest ''Uncle Marx Cherry

Members of the Republican League
Seek the Expulsion of Mr..
David R. James.
CHARGES TO BE PREFERRED
RESOLUTIONS CONCERNING THE ACTION
OF THE COUNCILMAN PRESENTED
BY A COMMITTEE AND ADOPTED.
Another Committee Appointed to FOrmu-
late Charges and Notify the Council
man to Answer Them at the
Next Meeting.

A sequel to the stir that was created by
the organization of the Borough Council
on Monday was furnished last night by
the introduction of the matter before a
meeting of the Shenandoah Republican
League The meeting was an open one
and the rooms were crowded. Among the
attendants were Messrs. Thomas
]. James, McElhenny, c. T. Straughn,
Boehm, Magargle, Gable and Reese,
the Councilmen who were left out of the
organization by the deal 1t did not re.
quire close observation to detect blood on
the moon. Councilman David r. James
was not present, and perhaps it was well
that he was absent, as his Monday nights
course was pretty severely criticised and
the meeting might have been worse than
a session of ratified Congress.
Some members of the club were in
favor of Immediately expelling Mr.. James
from the membership of the club, but
older and wiser heads prevailed and no
step in that direction was taken.
When the matter was taken up for dis.
cussion the Councilmen in attendance
gave their versions of the caucuses held
before the deal was made. Some OF them
were quite emphatic in denying the truth
of Mr.. James version and their state
ments were directly in conflict with those
which have been made by that gentle
man.
A committee was appointed to draft
resolutions on the matter, and the follow
ing report was presented and adopted;
| WHEREAS, By the action of one David
| r. James, a Councilman from the Third
ward of this borough, the will of the
people, as expressed by their votes at the
election held on the 10Th ult., has been
most basely thwarted and,
| WHEREAS, The said James has in an
unwarranted and traitorous manner be
trayed the purposes for which he was
elected. thus bringing discredit upon the
organization which took an active part in
his election, and whose assistance he
solcited therefore, be it
Resolved, That we most emphatically
place our condemnation upon his uncalled
for and unprincipled act, which has not
alone affected him, but has brought al
| who were associated with him, or who
champipned his cause at the time of elec
tion, into disrepute and subjecting then
to the ridicule of those whose supporI
they sought in his behalf.
Resolved, That a committee of five bt
appointed to formulate charges agains
the said James.
In accordance with the resolutions 6
committee was appointed to formulate
charges and to notify Mr.. James to b.
present next Thursday evening and make
answer.
Contrary to expectation, the meetinl
was not lively one. There were no no
debates or anything tending to anger. Il
fact, the meeting was entirely one-side
matter and there was no presentation o
the case from Mr.. James standpoint c
view. The next meeting will no doubt b
up to the standard of expectation, as
will assume the form of trial and a
facts bearing upon the matter will b
thoroughly rehearsed.

A New System of Baggage Delivery to
Go Into Effect March IS.


The Lehigh Valley Railroad, Away s
on the alert to increase the comfort and
the convenience of it's utilizers, has initi-
ated new system of baggage delivery
which will be a great improvement ON
the system a present in use and a valuable
aid to the travelling public. w. H. Gum.
mere, general baggage agent of the road,
states that the system will go into effect
on March Is.
By this system passengers can have
their baggage checked from the principal
stations Of the road direct to any depot
hotel or residence in New York City below
144th street, and in Brooklyn. The most
attractive feature of this new dep8rturs
is that the baggage upon its arrival in
New York is placed at once in special
| conveyance of the New York Transfer
Company formerly Dodd's Express) and
sent Immediately to its destination i,
thereby avoiding any delay in transfer.
The cost of this special service will be 50
! cents for every piece, which is but a trihe
more than the usual charge. BY this
system baggage can be forwarded in
| advance of the passenger If so desired
The necessity of the passenger accom-
panying his baggage or rechecking it on
the train is thus done away with. The
traveller can send his baggage away in
the morning and follow in the afternoon
to find his baggage safe at his destination
upon his arrival there.
Women travelling alone will find the
new system a great convenience and one
that will relieve them of ali worry and
trouble looking after their checks and
prevent all delay, The Lehigh Valley is
to be complimented on its efforts in be-
half of its passengers comfort. Gen.
Baggage Agt. Gummere feels confdent
OF the great success of the system.
