IT would be magndnimous act
and a just recognition OF faithful
services, and one which would be
commended by our citizens generally,
if the city authorities should appoint
Mr.. Wiley Keith to the position OF
Market Clerk, place for which he is
well qualified. Mr.. Keith served the
city as fireman, doing most effici-
emit service, for several years before a
paid fire department was instituted,
and, as our people know, he had the
misfortune to lose an arm and sus-
tain other injuries, some months ago.
during the celebration OF the triumph
of our firemen at the last State
tournament. The present incum-
bent of the position to which Mr..
Keith has been recommended has
made faithful officer, but we pre-
sumo will not be candidate for re-
election. Therefore, the appoint
ment of Mr.. Keith would be an act oil
appreciation on the part of the
authorities and would prove very
gratifying TO o large number Of our
citizens, irrespective of political
afiliation.

TEHUANTEPEC, Mex, Jan. 81
Last evening and this morning a
dozen shocks of earthquake, some of
them quite sharp, were experienced
here, causing CONSERVATION among
the people, who have come to regard
this city as standing over the seat of
a violent seismic disturbance. SUBJ
terranean noises like the distant
rum bling of artillery wagons were
heard, adding to the panic. No one
was harmed, however. The violence
of the disturbance seemed to be re-
stricted to limited area, which has
been explored thoroughly recently by
the Federal government commission
charged with studying the cause OF
the earthquake.

1t is a good sign when Robert

most brilliant of Americans, come to
Atlanta to lecture and draws only
five hundred people to the opera
house to hear him. 1t is comforting
to know that in the audience that
greeted bin night before last less

of the country are against this
apostate and the longer he lives the
ore W II he feel the blasting, blight
ing influence of their condemnation.
1t is gratifying to know that when
Mr.. Ingersoll made bold to attack
the Bible and the religion OF the
civilized and enlightened nations OF
earth, that his words died away in

1t is safe TO say that there were

s ALREADY, with the Spring far OFF,
there is an onward march towards

SIGNIFICANT TRIUMPH.

The first big gun in the great cur
rency battles of 1898 and 1900 has
been fired and the result is a signifi
cant triumph for free coinage. Such
will be generally accepted as the
meaning of the passage of the Teller
resolution by the United States Sen
ate, by vote of At to 81
This resolution conveys the opin-
ion of the highest legislative body in
the land that the United States
bonds may be paid in either silver or
gold at the option of the Govern
ment and is practical reafirmation
of that of Stanley Matthews, in
1873, and is as follows:
"That all the bonds of the United
States issued, or authorized to be
issued under the said acts of Con-
gress hereinbefore recited, are pay
able, principal and interest, at the
option of the government of the
United States, in silver dollars of the
coinage of the United States, con
tanning four hundred and twelve and
one-half grains each of standard
silver; and that to restore to its
coinage such silver coins as Legal
| tender in payment of said bonds
principal and interest, is not in viola
lation of the public faith nor in
deroga ton of the rights of the public
creditor"
The resolution is, also, at least
partially, an affirmation of the cur
rency plank of the Chicago platform
which scared the money bags almost
out of their boots in 1896 and which
will sweep the country in 1900, i
not in 1898.
AS significant as was the vote upor
the Teller resolution, even more de
cisive was the blow to the golC
standard in the rejection of Lodges
amendment declaring the bonds pay
able in gold only, by a vote of So te
