T THE PARTING
OF THE WAYS.
'ope ltrown Tells the Georgia
Agricultural Society That the
People ot the South Should Aid
the Negro in his Efforts to
Leave lis.
Onitmnn (Ih Amnio* <? A '
he meeting of the Georgia State
Lgricultural Society here to day
he race problem came promi
ently to the front as a topic of
iscussion. The lion. I'ope Brown,
(resident of the society, an ex
rnsive and prosperous planter ol
he state, asserted that the white
nan and the negro are at the
arting of the ways, and said the
ormer should assist the latter in
lis efforts to leave this country.
That portion of his address on
lie negro question was loudly
pplauded. In this connection he
ras also hold and unequivocal in
eclaring that the South should
top toadying to the North.
Mr. Brown said in part: "It is
ietween the white people of the
louth and the negroes of the
louth. The South haters of the
iorth are at the bottom of all the
rouble, and we need not flatter
urselves that those South haters
re few and far between. There

an the majority of them have no

hink they are making something

fork, rendered us a great service
few days ago by telling us exacty
what he and his people think
f us. I think it is time we were
etting them alone. Quit running
Iter them. Then quit toadying
o them. The small politician also
auses friction between the races,
iv submitting every question,
ounty, municipal and state, to a
^hito primary this trouble could
?e averted and better government
fould be secured in all cases.

ertain prominent citizens were
ailed on by the press to say how
it* should protect our families
gainst certain crimes there was
response that seemed to meet
he approval of the press. It was
his: 'Make a minature arsenal of
very country hotm*.' I say if it
ias come to that it is time for the
tarting of the ways. Shall we
art in peace or strife? I would

! Associated Press to The Times.
Rennes, August 12.?The curtain
rose today on the same theatrical
scene as occurred on last
Monday. The judges in uniform
were seated on 'he stage behind
the dark cloth-eovered table.
Every inch of the court was occupied
in expectation of something
liOnualinnol
There were more ladies present
than on Monday. The person
known as Madame Blanche (the
white lady), who attended every
move in the Dreyfus uil'air, was
again present, wearing a superb
set of pearls, but owing to the
expressed objections of Colonel
Jouaust she changed her conspicuous
place on the right behind
him for a more modest but still
noticenbl??position in the body of
the hall.
Dreyfus on entering the court
saluted the president. Colonel
Jouaust returned the salute and
said, 4kSit down, Dreyfus.'' The
chair of the nrisoner was nlnppil
?. - ? I ?
further to the right of the platform
today. Instead of facing
the judges Dreyfus sat with his
hack to the table of his counsel,
thus looking across the platform
straight at the rail at which the
witnesses stood.
THE SESSION OPENS.
Col. Jouaust immediately after
the court settled down opened the
proceedings by asking Dreyfus
the following questions : "In
January, 1895, the director of the
penitentiary of the Isle of Diablo
in course of his duty searched the
clothes brought from the prison,
lie found this document in the
inside pocket of your waistcoast,"
and the president here handed
I Dreyfus the paper, saying, "Do
i you recognize it

A STIRRING SCENE.
A stirring scene closed today's
session of the Dreyfus trial. (Jen.
Mercier had spoken for four hours
in ruthless denunciation of Drey
Ins, who listened unmoved until
Mercier concluded by saying, if
he had not been convinced of the
guilt of Dreyfus, and if the matter
of conviction had not been
since 1801, ho would admit he
was mistaken.
Dreyfus jumped to his feet and
shouted in a voice like a trumpet
note : "You have lied, you scoundrel
!"
The audience burst into wild
cheers, whereupon the ushers
were called for silence.
'"WHY DON'T YOU, THEN?"
Hut when Mercier replied that
he would admit Dreyfus was innocent
if there was any doubt
about it, the prisoner shouted
agaiu :
"Why don't you, then?"
At this juncture there was another
outburst of applause. M.
Casimir Herier then rose and dramatifallv
HainonHarl *ko
fronted with Gen. Mercier, in order
to deny some statements.
C/ol. JouHust ordered the court
adjourned until Monday, for a
conference, and as Mercier turned
to leave the court the audience
rose en masse and hissed and
cursed him, those at the back of
the court standing on the chairs
and benches to better hound him
down. Gendarmes placed themselves
between the general and
the audience, who showed a strong
disposition to maltreat the former
minister of war."
''VIVE, l.'AKMKK?" "VIVE hKKYKl S !"
(len. Mercier hurried out of the
| court room through side door
amid fierce denunciation. < >n
j emerging into the street the crowd
cheered and cried: ''Vive, ParI
tnee !" "Vive, Dreyfus !" cried
' the spectators of the scene in the
[court, "if they had heard the in
| human monster when he spoke
they would not now cheer him."

Opinions of Cotton Farmers and
(tinners After a Season's Experience.
The attitude of cottou ginners
and farmers towards the Roundlap
cotton bale of the American
Cotton Company, after a seasou's
test of the machine, is illustrated
by a letter received recently by
the editor to the Manufacturers'
Record, Baltimore, as-follows :
Editor Manufacturers* Record :
Some time ago you requested
us to give you our opiuion of the
American Cotton Co.'o cylindrical
press. At that time we were
unable to give our viewe correctly,
owing to the short time we had
operated the press. Now that the
ginning season has closed, we can
unquestionably say that the press
is a success in every particular,
not only from a ginuer's standpoint,
but as practical farmers.
The results from sale of our cotton
have been eminently satisfactory
and much beyond what we hfad
anticipated. The advantages to
planter and operator are so many
that it would take up too much
space to enumerate them. It is
sufficient to say that no one who
has baled their cotton on this
press v. ould now or hereafter patronize
any other. And why should
they? Their ginning charges are
less than the square-press people
charge, and they receive from
one-quarter to one-half cent per
pound more than they could get
in the square bale. There is no
question about the round bale
being here to stay, and we would
advise the ginmen, especially
those who are near a railroad, to
i get in the swim at once and exemplify
the old adage of the early
bird getting the worm. They
will not only benefit themselves,
but their friends, the farmers,
will get the cream that the middlemen,
the commission merchants,
have boon enjoying and
getting rich upon. In conclusion,
to condense t.ho advantages, will
un v fhaf f lin Kilo io
