THE Terrell farmers are attending
strictly to farm work, coming to town
only when business demands it. Plows
are preparing the soil, guano is being
hauled from the depots, needed repairs
on the premises are being made, and in
all ways desirable the preparation for
planting season goes briskly on. Many
mules have been bought, the amount of
fertilizer used will be much greater than
last year, and certainly there will be a
decided increase on some line of farming
in:the county. These things indicate fair
measure of prosperity, and considerable
degree of energy. Surely succ, o. must
follow such effortE.

A GAS light company in Atlanta is
having lots of trouble. A fellow goes
about the city and Offers to test the
meters of private consumers, and when
he finds one going around too fast, as
many meters do, he presents the case to
the party who pays for the gas; and then
there is great racket. A firm is suing
gas company for a rebate for four
years back. The fellow who goes about
on his own hook listing meters, is, pre-
sumably, doing it for pay. He, perhaps,
when he finds meter wrong, has the
owner to pay for his discovery. 1t seems
he has filed Atlanta full of small-sizeG
sensation.

CHAIRMAN HARRITY has issued the
call o. the national democratic executive
committee for the national convention to
be held at Chicago. The call is made in
language that must meet the hearty ap
prevail of every democrat who is anxious
to see the party strengthened and made
more powerful in the face of the tremen-
dous opposition that is to be brought
against it this year. The chairman says
that 'all democratic conservative citizens
of the United States, irrespective of past
political associations and differences,
who can unite with us in an effort for
pure, economical and constitutional gov
eminent are cordially invited to join us
in sending delegates to the convention"
This invitation is as br lad as any man
could wish, and is in harmony with the
desire of true democrats everywhere.

SENAT0R 7ALMATS SPEECH.

Ben Tillman and his pitchfork are in
Washington sure enough. The South
Carolinian made his first speech in the
senate on last Wednesday. and it was
the most notable utterance, in independ-
ence of thought and vehemence of En-
glish, that has ever been delivered in the
upper house. 1t was not speech that
astunes itself to the prov dignity
of the senate, yet it was clearly logical
arrangement of phrases and a scathing
sample of the rhetoric of invective.
It is safe to say that no address ever
heard in the capitol has created so pros
found sensation and aroused such deep
feeling. A large crowd thronged the
senate chamber and galleries, while
the impassioned senator, with fierce and
bitter invective, qrraigned and denounc<
ed the president and his cabinet.
For the absolute and complete repudi-
alton of his own record and the demo-
cratic doctrine of bimetallism, he applied
the name of Judas 10 Mr.. Carlisle.
For his stubbornness of purpose in fast
ening heavy bonded debt upon the
people and forcing thcm to pay their
obligations in gold instead of coin, in
violation of the contract and the law, he
denounced Mr.. Cleveland as "besotted
tyrant," and hurled at congress the cpl
tibet of towards for not impeaching
him. The speech was intensely sensa-
tional from start to finish, and was de-
livered with that lurid eleoquence and
fearless, impetuous courage for which
the South Carolina senator is noted.
The friends of the administrati On are
sneering at and bitterly denouncing
Senator Tillman, but nevertheless his
speech has produced deep impression.

THE REPUBLICAN TICKET.

The ticket nominated by the
republican convention at Hurley
last Friday is one of the strongest
ever placed before the voters OF
this county. The Legislative nom
inees are all representative farm
ers and are leading men in the
portions Of the county where they
reside. The county officers who
were nominated to serve a second
term are too we'll known to need
any words of praise from the
Herald, and the new men are citi-
zens who have the fullest conf
dence of the voters and taxpayers
of the county, and the entire tick
ct is entitled to the support Of
every republican who will be
qualified to cast ballot on the
Sd of next November. The fight
of the enemy will be directed with
full force against the legislative
ticket, as the United States sena-
tor is the main object of their
fight in this state, their being no
possible chance of their carrying
the state ticket.

Volga Tribune: Joseph Mcdonald,
a prominent Chicago grain man, has
been in South Dakota for the purpose
of securing data upon which to form an
estimate of the yield OF wheat in this
state. Mr.. Mcdonald is decidedly oil
the opinion that the price Of wheat is
bound to advance quite materially be-
tween now and spring. He states that
the total yield of wheat in this country
would not exceed 221 ,00G, 900, or about
half the usual yield. That in many
states large acreages OF wheat have
spelled in the shock and stack, owing
to the continual wet warm weather.
Everywhere in the west the yield is
proving a disappointment Because OF
these conditions of the crop and a mani
fest shortage he anticipates steady adj
vance in prices.

the Mckinley column to any
marked extent since the news of
the fusion between the democrats
and populists of the state reached
Washington. Senator Butler is
credited with having brought
about this fusion, which seemed
an improbahility few days ago.
One of the most unique suits
ever brought in Washington is
that of we'll known firm of
Michigan see d m en- brough h t
against the secretary of agricul-
ture to prevent his entering into
contracts for the purchase of
seeds for free distribution, under
the act of congress providing
therefor. In asking the courts to
|step i'll and stop the secretary of
agriculture from buying seed for
free distribution the counsel for
the Michigan firm of seedsmen
say it would 1niure the business
of their clients for the govern
nent to give away seeds and claim
that it will be violation of the
constitution of the United States.
The free distribution of seeds by
the government is not a new
thing by any means, but this
is the first time that it's right to
do it has ever been questioned.
Secretary Edgerton, of the
populist national committee, has
shown that the Mckinley men
haven't monopoly of electing a
president on paper, by making
public a table which makes
Bryan's election as certain as the
table of Congressman Grosvenor
made the election of Mckinley.

strive to make converts among the

Murat Halstead: The fact that
the silver propaganda is an i'm
pudent swindle, and the candi-
dacy of Bryan a speculation, ap-
pears as the campaign progresses
in strange light. 1t is before
the people that there was no crime
of 1873; that the only action TAX
EN- was according to precedent and
harmed no man on earth---did
nothing that wronged anybody
that the only error the Govern
ment5 committed was in buying
too much silver and stimulating
its production; that the more we
do for silver the cheaper it be-
comes as we increase its produc-
ton by our fa. or; that there is
nothing the matter with our
money, and there is nothing to do
but to go on doing as we have
done for eighteen years, that the
assertions and the expectations of
Mr.. Bryan are unworthy of a mo-
ment's consideration, for they are
the productions of excessively
stimulated ignorance or an abb
normally developed mendacity.
All business men know the i'm
measurable disaster the election
of Bryan would be, and the work
ingmen in contact with the great
industries of the country know
of their own knowledge that to
vote for him is to vote for panic,
for collapse and ruin, and that is
why the Chicago revolutionists
are losing ground in the cities and

REPUBLICAN RALLY.
There Was No Parade, but Rally
 Was Held at the Opera House.

The great chiefs of the tribe that worshiDs gold. met in convention last night to sing praises unto him who is their great chief and counsellor He whose name is held in reverence and awe by the trembling children and who has but to speak and there are many to do his bidding.
 There was to have been a great pa- rade in the evening that would show how great is the power and glory of the followers of Hanna, the great war rior who dwells in the land of the ris- ing sun. The gods decreed otherwise, for in their great anger they caused | the clouds to gather and the foodgates | of heaven to open and the earth was covered with water. Then did the chief warrior of the local tribe say unto his sub-chiefs: "The gods are angry with us; depart and inform our clansmen across the great river and the tributary regions that the great pa. rade of the tribe of Hannacrats has been postponed until the gods cease to frown.' The sub-chiefs hasstened tc do his bidding and the great numbers of woTshippers vino live across the water did not come.
 1 The chiefs decided that somebhins must be done to intimidate their enc mics, the tribe that worships silver therefore great council of war was held in the large wigwam A band O music was hired and many person. were attracted thither to hear tn, words of wisdom that fell from tn, great medicine men and chiefs of tn. tribe. Chiefs Frazier and Milla, talked words that were full of prais, and love for the good chief Hanna Chief J. W. Johnston of the norther1 tribe called on his hearers to spur cheap money as they would his satani majesty, a bad chief who lives wher
 no good warrior goes. His word
 were as warming to those who wer
 present who might be allied to tn
 tribe that worships silver. For of, ' verlty if the great chief Hanna wa not appeased and his lieutenant, Nc , Kinley, placed upon the throne, the1 would sorrow and suffering appear il , the land and the children would di l for the want of bread.
 The band played and the great coun ' cil adjourned, the people going to thei homes satisfied that the gold worship pers had taught them a wise lesson.

TOO SCARED TO STIR.
Stood Screaming in the Center of a
 Room, the House Ablaze.

DEMAREST, N. J., Oct. 1.-Mrs Henry Thomas. wife of builder, heard some of her neigh bors shouting Fire" T" about midnight yesterday. while her husband was absent. Through win dow she saw that a barn on the pre- misses WAS ablaze, and that the flames were moving toward the house.
 Mrs. Thomas, had put her children 10 bed and had securely locked the doors in the lower part of the house. The firemen of the Demarest Hook and Lad der company and the Knicker booker Truck company from Cluster, arrived. Mrs. Thomas stood in the centre of one of the lower rooms stricken with fright and screaming. Bremen called 10 her to unlock the doors and windows, but she seemed powerless to move, and they had to break in the doors to gain an en- trance.
 One side of the house had caught fire by this time. and Mrs. Thomas and her children were removed from the build. ing. Mos of the furniture was also ts ken out. The fremen saved she house, hut tie barn and contents were totally destroyed.
