!. - OUR MACON LETTER. avi.' Variety of Information. Jenkins .Mills, N- C.j ; .Aug. 8th,. 1891. Dear Democeat: Remember ing our promise for. "a better show in the future we are again culling the field for more "news items." The past few weeks of this unusually quiet section have not been very productive of sen sationals, but still we have an occasional breeze. For the pres ent everything seems to be adjusting itself to the old chan nels, and the routine of business happenings continues to. take its regular order with but slight fluctuations. Our public schools are now being taught and the average butterfly chaser finds his time very much employed in gather ing a few ideas that are to char aeterize his lite in the coming years of the uncertain future and point him out as an intelli gent, upright and useful citizen in his commnity, or relegate him to that already greatly swollen list of happy-go-lucky drones that, so far as anything they do is concerned, generally leave the world no better than they found it and would have been as well off not to have been at all. The schools of this entire 1 section as far as we have been able to learn are well manned and seem to be starting ofj: under favorable auspices- ihe mea s ure of success attained jby the public schools in this as' fh all other sections depends very much on the hearty co operation of the parents and citizens, as no teacher however faithful he may be, can succeed to any eminent degree without their co operation and encouragement. We have hnown parents who did not send their children to school a single day in the year . to be verv pronounced in their censure of the public schoo system. It generally happens this way we are grateful to know, for citizens who avail themselves of the advantages of the public schools in the country or who have observed the work ings of the public system and its effects upon the society of the country are generally the friends and advocates of the system. Mr. Geo. T. Bryson has charge of the Co wee school this year. The Harmony and Oak Grove schools are under the control of Misses MaggieandEttaMorrison respectively. Our old friend, Mr. H. D. Dean, of the Etna postoflfice, is holding forth at Burningtown, while Mr. Sam P. Clotr is operating at Oak Dale. Franklin seems to be getting on without a school at present, Prof. Reece, the princi pal elect, having accepted a more lucrative position in Idaho. We know of no more desirable location than this and would be glad to see some live, progressive teacher turn his eyes in this di rection. I There ought to be, and could be successfully established, a first class college nere. w hat we want is the right man, and when we have found him he will be in the right place. The Franklin House, under the control and management of P. H. Jarrett & Sons, is main taining its well earned reputa tion and standing admirably well. Market products never get too scarce nor too high to interfere with the meals at this well known house. Mr. Jarrett is rather a genial host, and Mrs. Jarrett, who is quite a clever woman, is determined that her table shall lack nothing palata ble to eat The weary traveler can certainly find rest and s re freshment here. Bro. Jarrett has a mania i seems for fishing, but the other evening he encoun tered a rather large specimenjof the "Jack'' tribe, we presume, that baffled his skill and suc ceeded every time in stealing his bait. He declares it to be the best educated fish he has ever met. The alliance pic-nic on last Saturday at Oak Grove was quite an interesting affair. H6n. A. H. Hayes did the speakibg and Carlyle the eating, and it is difficult to tell which displayed the greatest ability on the occa sion. It must be admitted, hojw ever. in sober truth that Mr. Hayes' speech on the occasion was brim full of solid facts and figures, and savored of season seems to trace its origen to a wedding that was to have taken placeri.last Thursday evening in this; community, it seeems that a fellow had cotirted his best girl successfully and the license was bought and placed in her hands as evidence of' his full intention to consumate the marriage; deal. Calling on her the night before the memorable day, he asked ner for the license to place in magistrates nanas, who he claim-: d! was to be master of ceremonies;! and feeling, as women always I do, that some thing might b wrong, she went to her trunk ami folded a paper and gave it to him. He took it and on his wayf home tore it up and skipped before daylight for parts unknownj just as the girl felt he would do. Ihe girl a clever girl too: has the legal authority for the' marriage in her own possesion and is waiting to see what is to happen in the course of coming events. Here is surely, a splerrdid opportunity for some clever young man the nearest road to matrimony we know of justjnow a splendid girl, pretty as red shoes, holding her own papers! and legal sanc tion for her conduct; a rare chance which does not happen every day, a ahance of a lifetime! Who will be the first to make application? Well, this is feure a fast world we live in. Mr, T. F. Henry, one of Anson county's best cit izens, is on a visit to relatives and friends in this (Macon) county. It is asserted by "Conie Cue" in the Franklin Press that he is "much pleased with the mountains of fWestern North Carolina, but more so wih the Belles." ; That same correspond ent ventures to; say, "he is look ing around for some mountain eer's daughter," and trusts he may "succeed in capturing one of our Belles."! If such are Mr. Henry's feelings and desires he will doubtless Jose no time in improving the above opportun ity . 1 Mr. Henry is a brother of Capt- W. F. Henry, well known in this section, and we would be pleased to know of his firming sufficient attractions here' to of the people, and hence we de mand that all national and State revenues shall be limited to the necessary expenses of tlie gov ernment' economically and hon estly administered. 6; We demand the most rigid, honest and just State and na tional governmental control and supervision of the means of public communication and transportation, and if this con trol and supervision does not remove the abuse now existing, we demand the- government ownership of such means of communication and transporta tion. 7. We demand that the Con gress of the United States sub mit an amendment to the con stitution providing for the elec tion of United States Senators by direct vote of the people of each State. -FALK'J MUSIC HOUSE 35 North-Main Street.

Some 1 inaccuracies having crept into the demands of the Supreme Council at Ocala, as copied into the press, the fol lowing is taken from the min utes published by authority, as being reliable. 1 Quite often the seventh; demand has been omit ted: l! - ') ! i la.

We demand that the amount of the circulating medi um be speedily increased to not less than $50 per capita. 2- That we demand that con : I , gress snail pass sucn. laws as will effectually prevent the deal ing in tutures of all agricultural and mechanic f 1 productions; providing a stringent system of procedure in trials that will se cure the prompt conviction, and imposing such penalties as shall secure the most perfect compli ance with the law. We condemn the silver bill Syrup" Here is something from Mr. Frank A. Hale, proprietor of the De Witt House, Lewiston, and the Tontine Hotel, Brunswick, Me. Hotel men meet the world as it comes and goes, and are not slow in sizing people and things up for what they are worth. He says that he has lost a father and several brothers and sis ters from Pulmonary Consumption, and is himself frequently troubled with colds, and he Hereditary often coughs enough to make him sick at Consumption stomach. When ever he has taken a cold ofthis kind he uses Boschee's German Syrup, and it cures him every time. Here is a man who knows the full danger of lung trou bles, and would therefore be most particular as to the medicine he used. What is his opinion ? Listen ! "I use nothing but Boschee's German Syrup, and have advised, I presume, more than a hundred different per sons to take it. Thev aeree with me that it is the best cough syrup in the market.
