HALF BRICKS IN DEMAND.


 A friend writes us the following from tombstone regarding the repub lican county committees meeting last Saturday:
 ~our friends, the enemy, had a reg ular old fashioned love feast here yes terdsy. They fell on the necks of each other, and amidst loud protesta- tions of undying love and affection they threatened to kill the 'fatted calf and bury the hatehet' so deep that Carrie Nation will never be able to find it again. and to live in peace. harmony brohtrely love and concord from thence forth and forever. How eyer it is currently reported that here was large demand for half bricks, asd that the demand did not cease even after the confrence a la Hague. Holmes seat was vacant and I fear that he has in a measure out lived his day in the party. and that our friend in Douglas and my candidate' for congress will have to be satisfied with his indicidual efforts

stroy the moral influence of the iegss. lature
 There was no game wisa g ss9e jackpot The Atlanta papers ,aais. aantly resent the pabncatior and tell
 he plain truth. Georgia legislators do not tamper with $500 jackpots. They avoid such dangers and seorn such obIiquity.
 The game was merely small two lit limit affair, with moderate kitty maintained. not for profit. but to pay srs expenses of the sideboard. oe- sasionally. a round of roodles or SO
 we're played just to make the game Interesting. There was no trace of gambling in this social diversion and t was an outrage that anybody should Il ave made such to-do over such a
 title affair. says the Houston Post.
 The Georgia legislators do not be. feye in gambling. On the contrary, taey execrate verything of that nature md stand for the uplift. It must have been an ignoramus, indeed, to deslg-
 ate a little two-bit limit affair as gambling. Men who claim to know say that even a man playing in the best of luck could scarcely win more than a couple of hundred night playing that limit, and this means. of course. that a man playing in the worst of luck could scarcely lose more.
 And kitty however energetic, could not rake in more than $50 orI seo a night in a two-bit game.
 At least, that's what they teli us and we believe it
 Az one of the newspapers that print ed th.s story, we apologize to the Georgia legislature. We take it back. Those five members were not gambl- ing at all They were just enjoying themselves in a social way and the transfers of money were merely incidental to the interest in the pro ceeding.
 Now that we understand that small. limit poker is not gambling, we ask the reader to believe no more stories of that nature emanating from Atlanta Of course. if hereafter the limit should be raised, that might constitute gambling. But that need not be ex- pected, unless indeed, somebody rakes in fat pot upor-the exposure of a 1 full hand or fours, whatever these terms might mean, and the round of roodles should follow and be made feature of the game.
 It is always best to understand pro per distinctions. Then it will be un to make such blunders as that about the Atlanta 'two-bit limit game We congratulate our Georgia friends upon their complete yindica- tion

CONFERENCE BETWEEN RAILROADS AND SHIPPERS.

The announcement that F. A. Lee land, chairman of the southwestern tariff committee, in response to pro tests from so many shipping interests, has called meeting in St. Louis on September 1 to discuss the subject of the proposed freight advance in all its bearings, affords some room to hope that the proposition may be abandoned altogether. says the Hous- ton Post.
 This conference will be attended by both shippers and railroad traffic off cials, and since the proposed increase has been meeting with such strenuous opposition on the part of the shippers generally. it is to be hoped that some agreement may be reached satisfac- tory to all interests concerned.
 The fact stands undisputed that as one of the results of the recent panic the railroads suffered heavily, along with every other interest of the couu- try. Whether they suffered more in proportion than other interests is a question not easily settled, but it is contended by the roads that they did. For this reason public sentiment has shown 8 Feactionary tendency in the matter of dealing with the railroads in many sections of the country hereto fore accounted hostile to these inter ests. The masses recognize the great value of the railroads to the country, and they are generally disposed to give them a square deal All that they ask is that the railroads manifest a ike spirit.
 This feeling it was very greatly to the interest of the railroads to foster, hence the unwisdom, as matter of policy, unless unavoidable, of the pro posed increase in rates, in the face of assured crop prospects, promising to tax the utmost capacity of the roads to handle the traffic.
 Having suffered as result of unrea. sonable hostility on the part of the

MR. sRvAN's ACCEPTANCE


 Mr. Bryan's letter of acceptance piII have no surprises h it for the country. He has faculty O. defining himself so clearly and plainly that very few of his sentences are needed to explain fully what he means. As he has already dehned the purpose of his candidacy. it is the purpose of rep resentative government As such it is the strongest contrast with the pol icies and possibilities of personal gov ernment.
 In his view of the responsibilities of the presidency, published immed- lately after his nomination at Denver, he has no right at all to attempt to use that office for dominating the country. for controlling congress. for imposing his personal opinions or per sonai policies of any kind on the country or even on his own party.
 In his reservation of his right to hold and advocate opinions of his own. whether they are representative or not he fully defined the limit be yond which he suspends this right in aeoentin. representative duties and responsibilities. h accepting dem ocratie nomination, he accepts the platform on which he was nominated as Instructions binding him fully in his candidacy. His acceptance of the nomination means thss. that he be comes an instructed representative of his party. suspending for the sake of representing it every right of unrep- resentatiye action which belongs to those who are not pledged by instruc- tions.
 By the sum of his democratic in struetions he is pledged. if elected to the presidency. not to attempt to dom mate the country. but to represent fl. not as the head of the United States government, but as the chief execu. tive of the department of government which has the constitution and the laws made in accordance with it, as instructions for representing the whole people in administration. as they ought to be represented by con gress in legislation and by the courts in interpreting and declaring the law for enforcement by tine executive de pertinent.
 Partisan prejudice cannot impeach this view of the responsibility of the presidency The president who at- tempts the use of his delegated re sponsibility as a personal perogatiye to force his personal views on the country as instructions for 1t can not be bound by instructions from the country Under such a president i the country has no certainty left ex. cept as it can defnd itself against the operations of his personal impulses and his personal theories of the sort of a country he ought to make it n making his personal reputation by to dominate it.

Serve on hot dishes the moment they
are taken from the oven. Though
this is not an elegant dish, many peo-
pie enjoy it, as the best flavor of the

opened into a hot dish and seasoned
with butter, salt, pepper and lemon

course, Washington was the leader
on one side, and a boy named Will

troop. The mimic battle terminated
in Washington's favor, the other side
being SO completely pummelled that
we do not hear anything more OF
the claims of William Bustle.
When Washington was sixteen, he
gave up going to school, and became
a surveyor. This took hin. out into
the woods, and he had to encounter
all sorts Of dangers and risks. His
sixteenth birthday he passed in the
wilds of Western Virginia, where he
was surveying vast tract of land
for its owner, Lord Fairfax. He had
now fairly entered upon the stern
