"If," says the Hon. Thomas +.
Watson, Of Georgia, "Mr. Bryan IS a
Democrat let him say SO, that then
we will know what he is. If, as his
friends assert. he is real Populisf,
let him be honest enough to quit
parading in Democratic clothes and
come out as he should do and not
hang on the tail of the Populist coat.
This is the present challenge OF the
leader OF the middle Of the-road Popu-
lists. A Populist convention will be
held in Georgia on the 22d instant to
elect delegates to the National conyen-
ton to be held in Nashville July 4.
At that convention Mr. Watson will
be the master spirit and he will there
undertake to cast out the Buffers, the
Donneilys and the Bryans from the
Populists fold, unless they shall swear
to support the Populist flag exclusive
ly hereafter.

His Very Latest.

Not long ago a citizen of Medford
was vending his way homeward tack
ing from this side to that muttering
to himself ana wondering what Mary
would say about his condition and
the lateness Of the hour. He had
reached the square. It was midnight
but the citizen did not know it, for as
he looked up at the clock in the steeple
Of the Methodist church the dials
seemed to revolve like buzz-saw.
II am drunk" said the citizen,
sdrunk-too damn drunk to see
straight, but if that clock would strike
I'm not so drunk-but what / can
count.
He sat down on the steps to think
it over. Just then the clock began to
strike. The man counted: One
two-three- observation-disclosures
-eight-nine-ten. ('It must be
eleven -eleven--("No its twelver')
twelve. Just then the Presbyterian
clock began-thirteen--( CHI -

And curative power is written

The Gross Injustice Of pueIing

The Norfolk Ledger says: 1.-THE
gross injustice of dueling had an IL
lustration on Saturday of last week
in the Barber Osborne affair in Geor-
gia, by which the latter was instantly
killed, leaving widow and six chill
dren not only to mourn the loss of a
husband and father, but to battle with
the world for livelihood as best they
may. What mortal right had this
man to thus sacrifice himself and his
family to the demands of such an
iniquitous code2 1t would have been
manlier by far to have continued at
the side of his wife and children rather
than to have allowed an enemy to
make them widow and orphans.
Happily such mistaken idea OF
honor and courage is very nearly a
thing of the past.
