Times are taking shape for general

largely attended convention was held in
Macon last week, at which the anti bar
room bill, introduced at the last sitting
of the legislature, was endorsed and the
preliminaries arranged for urging an
active warfare against the sale of intoxi-
cants. The good women ale with this
movement, and their powerful influence
is gong to be telt.

Hon. JESSE WALTERS, of Dougherty,
publishes lengthy article in the Albany
Herald in which he takes an unequivocal
stand for free coinage. He also touches
up Congressman Russell. He charges
that gentlemen with having evaded the
issue and left the people in the dark as
to his position on the financial question,
and suggests that the congressman send
from Washington an interpretati on of
his recent letter which was intend ed to
inform the people as to his position On
the money issue. The Colonel is always
able and interesting, and there will be
dull times when he gets fully enlisted in
this fight for the people.

Hon. JUDsoN HAND, the Pelham
statesman, is out in two column inter
view in the Thomasville Advertiser. He
is for silver, too, but has his own opinion
as to how it should be remonetized. He
says: "My idea is for the government to
buy silver bullion and issue silver certifi-
Gates on it, but not as has been done.
Issue the certificates on dollars worth
of the bullion, and this would make a
real dollar anywhere in the world, be
cause silver has bullion value. These
certificates should be issued payable in
gold or silver, optionary with the gov
rnnent, and then there would never be
a corner in either metal, as it would be
impossible, and this fact alone would
maintain an almost or entirely fixed price
for both metals"

THE old confederate veterans had
grand time at Houston, Texas, at their
annual reunion. AS the years go by the
ranks of these true and brave men of the
south are being gradually thinned, in
striking contrast with the ever increasing
army of our friends on the other side of
the struggle who are constantly storming
the federal pension cribs.

THE GLORY or THE DAK.

The Herald is happy. We have been
at least part of the instrumental means
of bringing an esteemed but sometimes
perverse and hypercritical contemporary
whose pet name for Capt. X. HOBBS, the
able and faithful chairman of the demo-
cratic executive committee of tho second
congressional district, during the last
two campaigns, has been dictator
Hobbs" to the point of not only saying
that the captain is right, but of actually
claiming him for its own. And that,
too, in connection with subject VII Oh
will figure as a real live issue in the next
congressional mpaign!
OF course we allude to THE DAWSON
News. In the editorial columns OF that
paper of the current week we find the
following:
"And Capt. Hobbs, too. He uses the
prints to take issue with Mr.. Spence S
gold views. He also disputes with the
Mitchell gentleman as TO the position OF
the second districts congressman on the
money question, and claims him for sill
yer. We claim the Captain. He's right
this time"
There's glory enough in this for one
dav. Only think of it, THE DAWSON
News declaring that Capt, Hobbs is
fright this time" and actually putting
itself in the same bed with him. 1t
augurs we'll for the future.-Albany
Herald.
THE News is no less happy than the
Herald. We have known for long time
that Captain Hobbs was good bedfels
low, when not in kicking humor, and,
therefore, THE News was delighted,
when the genial captain came over so
smilingly, to turn down corner of the
warm cover and yield to him a generous
portion of the downy democratic bed
upon which THE NEWS has repoSed for
many years past
There is room for the Herald also, and
whenever our esteemed Brother McIn-
tosh makes up his mind to sleep with
measures and not with men he will
receive a warm welcome to the same
broad and comfortable couch which now
holds in it's generous embrace both the
Dictator and THE NEWS Come on,
brother; we will give you place beside
the beautiful star-eyed silver goddess,
but bring no goldbugs with you. They
are not pleasant company.

that within a very short time hundreds
Of mining prospectors have gone into
the Wichita mountains looking FOR pre-
cious metals. The captain Is Of the
impression that recent publications ila
regard to finds Of gold in that country
are responsible for the invasion. Many
OF the intruders are from Colorado and
the far west, but the majority came
from the zinc mining sections Of Mis-
souri, and Kansas His understanding,
from reports brought to him, is that
many Of the prospectors have been sent
out by mining companies. The number
in the mountains Is variously estimated
at from 500 to 1000.
1t is said the Indian police are UT-
able to cope with the situation and are
powerless to do little besides secure
information. The Indians are very
nervous and much dissatisfied over the
situation, as it has ever been their atm
to keep prospectors out OF the Wichita
mountains, and very few have ever sue
ceeded in reaching there and while all
have been forced to suspend work who
went there, not all have come out alive

A New Irish League.

will arrive from the east over the Balti-

ment had its inception on the pages
of the Irish Republic while Mr.. Nc
Laughlin was editor. In August a
year ago 1t was announced that the
leading Irishmen in America were in
favor of a new national movement and
january last circular calling for a
convention was issued by John F. Fin
nerty, editor OF the Citizen, and John

delegates say 1t Is not impossible that
the convention may formulate decla-
ration Of war against England. Special
care will be taken to keep the new move
ment from falling into the hands OF men
interested more than anything else in
American politics. ANY attempt to

NEW YORK, October 17.-Mrs. Waller,
wife of the ex-consul of the United States
at Tamatave. Madagascar. was passenger,
with her two daughters and son, arriving
today, on board the steamship Amsterdam.
Regarding the efforts which have been
made to obtain a hearing for her husband
who is confined as a military prisoner at
Marseilles for the alleged offence of holding
communications with the enemies OF
France in Madagascar, Mrs. Waller said
today:
Il am told that Ambassador Eustis has
been criticised by those who sympathize
with my husband, and 1 want to correct
any. false impression that may have OBJ
tained. Mr.. Eustis treated us, and Is treat
Ing my husband, with the utmost considera-
tion and tenderness. He exerted every pos
sible influence for our assistance and our
benefit.
'Only red tape that binds the wheels of
state in France Is to blame for our failure
to see my husband, and his solitary confine-
ment is being made easy and as pleasant
as possible by Mr.. Eustis, who sends to him
newspapers. books, money, tobacco, deli
cacies and all that is permitted to be sent
to prisoner.
II DO not think my husband will live a
year in the French prison, for he was i'll
for whole year before his arrest on March
25 last"
Mrs. Waller said further that she had
forwarded to Secretary Olney documentary
evidence sufficient to completely prove the
innocence of Mr.. Waller.
