MERCHANTS HAD BETTER DAY.
Business In all Lines Showed I'm
provement.

Whether the better price Of cotton or
the rain yesterday morning improved
conditions is immaterial, but some
thing gave an impetus to business and
Americas merchants had the best trade
of the week The chilling blasts fol-
lowing the rain coniured up thoughts
of winter clothing, winter wraps etc.
and sales in all lines showed improve
ment. ItI7 wonderful, too, what a
marked fleet drop in the cotton mar
ket, or an advance of prices, has upon
trade. One can watch the door of q
drygoods house here from the oppo-
site side of the street and guess the
condition Of the cotton market with
uuerring certainty.

PETER RETURNS TO YAMAcRAw
Quits His Job Here and Goes Upon a
Vacation.

In the departure of Peter Donegal
for Savannah yesterday Americus loses,
for time at least, one of her odd and
quaint characters in black. Peter
seemed welded to Americas in the
role of street cleaner; he was likewise
welded to the oil of joy and with little
little prospect of getting a divorce.
Recently Peter tanked up and was
moored at the bastile. This touched
Peters pride, it also touched his peck
ct, and he is now touching the road in
high places en- route to Savannah. The
repentance of Peter is hoped for, along
with his return to the dirty alleys oil

ia more apt to be right than that or
the divided and partisan county commit

local fight. That county commlttee may
be. and I have no doubt Is, composed
of men as high and honest as the lne'l'-
hers of the State Committee, but they
are human, and are governed to some
extent by their prejudces. The famous
Electoral Commission Of 1876 was COM
posed of United States Senators, MEM
bers of the House of Representatives
and judges OF the Supreme Court or the
United States, and dare say were as
good men as those composing the Henrico
County Committee; and yet they divided.
s to 7, on partisan lines on every single
question that arose. The TIenrico COM
mittee has thirteen members, u al-
pears that eight of them voted IN the prl-
mary against Rrauer and five voted for
him. While the vote in the county com,
mittee on the charges brought AGAINST
Brauer was a secret ballot, It Is yTy
sirnificant that the vote stood elsht
AGAINST Brauer and five for him, Just
as it stood In the primary. Are these
men any better than was the Electoral
Commission of 1875, and shall the state
Committee be condemned to eternal M
fanny because II cannot agree With z
county committee divided on such lines?
