THERE is tide in the affairs of
nations, which, taken at the flood,
leads on to fortune; omitted, and all
their peoples are bound in shadows
and in miseries. On such full sea
are we now afloat, and we must vote
for Bryan and Sewall, or lose our
cause.-Shakespeare revised.

REMEMBER that a vote for the
Bryan and Watson electors does not
help Bryan to carry this State.

The Social journals tell us that,
in the fashionable world, babies are
now the fad. The little ones are to
be congratulated that Dame Fashion
has now taken them under her pro-
tecting. wing, for their fashionable
mothers, in their heartless love of
the world, too often neglected them.
This reminds us also that Ward Nc
Alister died opportunely for his
fame, for under this new order Of
things Ward could hardly have held
his place as the leader of the -Four
Hundred"

FRANK JAMES, the noted outlaw,
whose name once struck terror in
the hearts of the law-abiding
people, has for many years
renounced his lawless life, and since
that time has lived a quiet and
peaceable citizen in st. Louis. He
has renounced every form of rob-
berry, including the gold standard.
The Columbia herald. [volume] (Columbia, Tenn.) 18??-1935, 1896-10-16

BEHIND the strong entrenchment
of the gold standard are gathered all
those favored classes it has fostered.
Avarice and unholy greed are there;
every trust and combination is there; /;
every monopolist is there, led by
the greatest monopoly of all, the
monopoly of the power of gold. y

LAST WARNING TO FARMERS.

Let the farmer who is preparing
to increase his crop of cotton stop a
little and consider. There is profit
in cotton at eight cents. There is
loss in it at FIVE cents. IT every
farmer increases his acreage or his
crop by one-balf or one-third the
total increase will be great enough
to bring the price down to five
cents. With cotton at five cents
the moro Of it you have to pick out
and sell the worse off you will be,
because every bale will represent a
loss. II you plant for a big crop
and make small one you will lose
money even if you sell what you
make for eight or nine cents.
With an average yield you will
make some money selling four bales
of cotton at eight cents. If the
pricesdrops to five you will lose
money on every bale of ten bales.
Suppose cotton costs six cents to
make 1900 pounds Of lint, or four
bales, at eight cents will give you a
profit OF two cents pound, or $50.
-Four thousand five hundred pounds
of lint, or ten bales, at five cents
will give you loss of cent pound
or s45, besides the extra picking,
ginning, bagging and hauling.
When you see there is to be a
big crop that is your time to reduce
your acreage because a big crop is
likely to mean loss to you on every
bale you make.
Keep down the acreage. Your
only hope for profit when there is
big crop is to stimulate your ground
to increase its yield per acre. Plant
little and push what you do plant.
The rush for fertilizers means
danger. Look we'll what you do.
Ii you think there is money in cot,
ton at FIVE or six cents, pitch in on
cotton. If not, go slow, keep down
your supply bills and make all snug
with food for folks and stock. corn,
wheat, oats, potatoes, onions, cab
bage, molasses, poultry and meat.
Then you cannot suffer.

FITz HAS A RIGHT TO REST

to Get His Second Wind.

Philadelphia, Pa. March e.-Fi;zsim-
mons refuses 10 sign or even TO read the
articles OF agreement forwarded by the
National Sporting club for a fight be-
tween himself and Corbett. The new
champion has said almost daily since
his fight with Peter Maher. in Mexico
that he would make no match Of any
sort until he had time TO thoroughly
rest out after his seven months OF train
ing. and he evidently means what he
says. FitZ has also said over and over
again that Corbett must fight Mahsr
or some other good man to prove that
he has not retired from the ring. Cor
be;t says he will sign the English arti-
cles Of agreement, and has asked 10
have them forwarded 70 him for that
purpose. The oftener FitZ says he Will

would not fight FftzSinmons COW. II

worked his way UP from the bottom to
the very top, and now that he had won
the championship would defend 1t
against all corners. However, Julian,
in the fullness of his joy, did not say
that Fitzsimmons would keep right on
in training and fight aspirants for fame
as fast as they came to light, without
taking a rest or once going out of train
ing. Fitzsimmons, before the fight,
said that Corbett would have to demon
strate his sincerity by fighting and
whipping some good man before he

this statement after the fight and has
stuck to it doggedly ever since. The
unfortunate part of the whole business
is that Fitzsimmons did not pursue
different policy. Had he offered to fight
Corbett one month after the date Of
Fitzsimmons-Maher fight, it would have
been Corbett, instead of FftZsimnons.
now demanding postponement for one
year.
The New York Evening Telegram
puts it this way: When Peter Jackson
wanted to fight Corbett, the eX-cham-
pion invited the black man TO go down
south. Jackson said it would be i'm
possible, owing to race prejudice, and
suggested that England would be good
place. but Corbett said he would never
fight there and proceeded to abuse the
National Sporting club officials. Now
the mighty Corbett is down on his knees
TO the Englishmen, begging for a purse
and agreeing TO apologize. That's
humiliating attitude for supposed
champion. However, let Mr.. Corbett
preserve and probably the National
Sporting club will offer a purse for Ma
her and Corbett, for Maher is the man
Cor'bett must fight before meeting Fftz-
simmons. Corbett has frequently said
he would be willing to meet half dozen
men one after the other, and this offers
