FACTS COUPLED WITH JUSTICE

The fact that some jealous prohibi-
tlonists should have seen fit to resort
to circulating what has now become
wei known as "the grave yard circu-
lar" has caused much feeling in our
city. and this has been the one act
which has brought much unnecessary
trouble into the prohibition campaign
now being holly wsged and talked of
by all classes of interested citizens.
The Times Recorder certainly deplores
the necessity of publishing IN it's
news columns any news item which
must reflect on the good name of any
] citizen of Americas or Sumter county,
yet it cannot and will not forget its
/ duty as a public journal to the en-
tire people, Hope of reward or fear of
punishment has never deferred the
Times Recorder from speaking the
truth or fulfilling its duty.
1t is fact that the circular, with all
the narrowing sentiment attached, was
shown and discussed, but as the Times
Recorder stated at the time, and is
glad to now reaflirm, this overt and
uncanny act was neither inspired nor
approved by the rank and file of the
prohibitlonists of Sumter county a
committee of gentlemen, VIZ Messrs.
j. E. D. Shipp, w P Wallis and
Judge RI. Maynard, who are duly APP
pointed to look after and are actively
managing the campaign Of prohibition
in Americus and Sumter county, have
delegated one of their number, an
honorable gentleman, to state to the
Times Recorder that not one OF the
three had anything to do with
circulating this inappropriate docu-
ment. Enough has been SAID about
this circular, and the Times Recorder
trusts that it will pass from the mem
cries of the people and the like of such
will never disturb the peaceful minds
of our citizens again.
THIS is time when people have need
to be careful of what they think, much
less of what they say. The Times Re
corder takes this opportunity to make
this statement in defense of the honor
able prohibitionists who have right
to their opinion and whose rights the
Times Recorder, while it may differ
} with them, takes pleasure in protecting
and respecting.

FORGET.

If You would increase your happi-
ness and prolong your life, forget your
neighbours faults. FORGET the SANDER
you have heard. Forget the tempta-
tions. Forget the fault finding, and
give little thought to the cause which
provoked it. Forget the peculiarities
of your friends, and only remember
the good points that make you fond
of them. Forget all personal qaarrels
or stories you may have heard by
accident, and which, if repeated, would
seem q thousand times worse than
they are. Blot out, as far as possible
all the dlsagreeables OF life; they will
come, but they will grow larger when
you remember them, and the constant
thoughts of acts of the meanness, or
worse still, malice, will only tend to
make You more familiar with them.

ANOTHER SOLOMON.

A Washington Judge has decid &c
that kissing ones sweetheart is mo-
disorderly conduct.
An over-vlgilant policeman who dis
covered youth in the act of admins
tering goodnight kiss to the palpi'
tating lips of his best girl insisted
upon escorting the kisser to the police
station, where case of disorderly
conduct was booked against him.
There was no complaint on the part OF
the kissee, there had been no other
witnesses whose repose had been dis
turbed by the act itself. The pslice-
man took it upon himself, however, to
decide that this was case calling for
the strong arm of the law,
The finish of the copper came when
he carried his case before the judge.
Instead Of the common dation he ex-
pected for his activity in protecting
the morals of the community, he got
a good, hard call down-one of the
get-out. Of here. auick variety. He was
told that to kiss is one Of the lnallen-
able rights of mankind that love
sways the world, and that all other
courts are inferior to that of Cnpid; ,
that man who hadn't sense enough
to know this had no business on the
police force Of any city, least Of all

SMALL GAIN BY WHEAT
MINOR FRACTION ADDED TO THE
PRICE BY BAD WEATHER
Other Grains Close Lower, After n
Somewhat Firm Opening-PrO-
visions on a Lower Level.

CHICAGO, Oct 13.-Wet weather and
higher cables caused a strong opening in
grains on the Board of Trade, to-day, and
after slight decline wheat closed firm.
December up sake. December corn closed
Ac lower, and oats Aq3sc lower. January
provisions closed unchanged to 213c lower.
General rains during the past forty-eight
hours, together with higher cables started
wheat higher to-day, but large receipts in
the Northwest with predictions of better
weather. caused considerable selling early
by commission houses, and the market
weakened materially. Local sentiment.
however, was bullish and offerings were
well taken. In the latter part of the day
prices advanced again on good demand
with limited offerings. Poor grading. fair
cash demand and small increase in the
visible were the sustaining features. De-
cember opened asc to hc higher at 71lsc to
1Ac, but sold down to 70ssc early on heavy
liquidation. Later offerings became linn
tied and with good buying by commission
houses there an advance to 1114c.
Another reaction followed. but the close
was Bc to &c higher, at NsQ1. Clear
ances of wheat and flour were equal to
1885, 40 blu. Primary receipts were 1,756.000
bu. compared with 1,l2i.000 a year ago. The
amount on passage showed decrease of
Duluth reported receipts of 1856 cars which,
with local receipts of III cars, one of con-
tract grade, made a total of 1,452 cars,
against LOSS last week and S21 year ago.
Corn opened strong wet weather and
higher cables The feature to trade was
the unloading Of a long line by a prom
inent trader, it being reported that over
million bushels were disposed of. The
market weakened on free offerings, but
later most of the loss was regained on
buying by locals and commission houses.
The close was about steady with a small
loss for the day. December sold between
Also and 4S1zc. and closed Ac lower at
4114q47ssc- Local receipts were 292 cars,
6S of contract grade.
Oats opened strong with corn. but on
commission house selling. principally by
a prominent long, and with weakness in
corn, prices tened lower There was a
fair trade throughout the day. The close
was easy, with December down AGssc at
Hsc, after selling between 81 and 31Ac.
Local receipts were 105 cars.
Provisions were traded in moderately and
opening prices were higher. Influenced by
moderate receipts of hogs and higher prices
at the yards. At the advance there was
some realizing. which caused a slight de-
cline. but the market held about steady.
January pork closed about eHc lower at
$l5.67h; lard was unchanged at $S.91hc,
with ribs unchanged at $3.50.
Estimated receipts for tomorrow: Wheat,
