No manly person can fail to admire the pluck of the little handful of Bulgarians in standing up as stoutly as they do against the bulldozing of the mighty czar anjl his truculent agent, General Kanlhars. Caitain Biiown, of the British hark Omega, now at Vancouver, 11. C., and which is manned entirely hy Chinese Bailors, says that the total expenses of the trip from Shanghai, China, to Dur rani inlet were .<>00 per cent, less than they would bo hud bean English crew on board. Each of the Mongolian sa'lors is paid $5 per month wages, the food for each man for the same period costing only $1.50, And this is what some peo ple want Americans to compete with in tlic labor market. Some of our esteemed democratic co- temporaries si ion Id stick to the simple and straight paths of democracy. They should not allow themselves to he led astray by the seductive influences of large appropriations, and particularly such ones as are provided for in the Blair bill. Does the Union see the point? IIon. W. A. Little, of Muscogee, tilled the position of speaker of the last house of representatives with such signal ability that it is highly probable that he will have no opposition in the ensuing organization. Captain Little is still a young man, hut competent for any posi tion with which the people of Georgia may he pleased to entrust him. 'fun Bartholdi statue of liberty is so nearly completed that there is no doubt now that it will be ready for dedication on the 28 th of this month. It is ten years since the hand bearing the torch was set up in the centennial grounds, ami i that iH the only part of the statue re- ! mainingto he put in plaee. Serious peo-. pie may doubt whether the sentiment 1 commemorated has justified the ten I years of work and worry, to say nothing of the money expended in erecting the j statue. But enthusiasts on both sides of 1 the ocean have had their way, and New York gels its curiosity in the shape of a marvelous lighthouse to greet the hieoin- 1 ing emigrant ships. Ax Atlanta correspondent thus fore- on ts the organization of the next Geor gia legislature: So flu' as announced there arc three candidates for president of the senate—Hon. -ioltn s. David son, ot the 18th; Hon. W. K. Smith, of the 10th, j and Hon. it. Pringle, of the '20th. The general impression is that the first named will get the honor. Hon. W. A. Harris, of Worth, is tile only can didate mentioned for the office of secretary of tile senate, and lie will doubtless be elected with out opposition. In the house it is not likely there will be much ' contest for the speakership. Hon. W. A. Tattle, of Muscogee, who filled the position so ably and 1 acceptably tire lust session, is the only prominent j candidate and will be elected. Several names have been spoken of in this connection, but so | far as l can learn there arc no other active can didates. Hon. Mark A. Hardin, clerk of the old house, is ! a strong candidate for re-election, anil his friends j have no fears of his defeat. He will ire opposed by Hon. Cooper Noshit. Is speaking of the proposition marie by Senator Sherman to restore cuminey i bimeialism on tin' basis of the present 1 market value of goMund silver bullion, I the Cincinnati Journal says it would 1 require $1,000,000,000 worth of silver bullion to raise the existing silver cur rency to that standard, which amount could not be procured anywhere in the world, and would absorb the whole world’s net annual coinage supply of silver bullion for thirty years to come. This being of course impracticable, the scheme would necessarily depend almost wholly upon the metal already coined, and it would necessarily undertake to obtain its supply by melting one- third of tlie world’s coinage into the other two-tliirds. This would contract the silver currency of the world one-third as a starter, which would be an operation far more radical and destructive than the most ultra uionometalie scheme ever ven tured to attempt, as those latter under takings generally content themselves, in accomplishing their ends, to compelling a cessation of silver coinage insteud of a destruction of the coinage, as this infa mous suggestion proposes. It would be, therefore, as a means of money contrac tion, incalculably worse than a universal and total suspension of silver coinage throughout the world. A DKFINEirPOMCT SKKIHill. When two great political.,parties.’exist in any government, and are struggling ea'*h with the other for the mastery, and each seeking to control and shape legis lation, then wo conclude that each lias a policy and principles. In this govern ment we recognize the existence of two grout parties—the democratic and repub lican. Between these two the govern ment has been oscilating, controlled sometimes by the adherents of the one j and then hy the other. For twenty years or more previous to the election of drover Cleveland as president of the I'nitcd States, the national government was continuously under the control and management of the republican party. Republicans then filled every office from president down. While that party was in the ascendency and while the principles which they espoused or professed to es pouse were in favor with the American people, it was proper that the chief magistrate of the nation who, by his ex alted position, was entrusted not only with the execution of the laws of the land, but with the enforcement of the nation’s policy as embodied in the prin ciples of the dominant party, should fill all the positions of place with such per sons only an were known to be friendly and fuvorablc to the principles of the party then in power. Duty to party is one thing and duty to government is another, and the two are not compatible when principles held hy the one are antagonistic to the views ad vocated by the other. It is a scriptural maxim, which is concurrent with the common experience of all mankind, that no man can serve two masters. Is it wise, is it prudent to trust any man with the enforcement of a policy which is contrary to his party or his individual principles? Tn this government majori ties rule, and the policy of the majority is the policy of the government. The cornerstone of our nationality is “vox populi, vox Dei.” AVIieii, there fore, the voice of the majority has dearly indicated, by the election of a democrat ns chief magistrate, that demo cratic principles shall, at least during his administration, lie the ruling policy of the government, it then becomes the sacred duty of the chief executive to remove from place and position every man who is known, hy his previous party afiiliations, to he opposed to. the democratic party. Looking at this matter only from a governmental standpoint, it is the duty of President Cleveland to fill all the offices, as far as lies within the range of his appointing power, with true and tried democrats. But the president owes a duty in tiiis respect, not only to the government, but to the party itself which elevated him to the chief magistracy, What claim have they who fought against democratic ascend ency, and who are still lighting the ad ministration, to any political favors at his hands? Are not nil the claims with those who have struggled through all ; the dark hours of despondency for demo cratic triumph, and who arc still in full est sympathy with the administration? riien why hesitate to strengthen both j tlie purty and the administration hy a sweeping stroke, .which will place in 1 ullieo persons of known democratic fealty? It may ho urged by some that it was 1 not democratic votes alone tliai elected the president, hut that disaffected re publican voters of New York had a large share in turning the party scales and ilia! as a consequence the piv-nieni must, in a mensuve, consult the views and wishes of that brunch of the repul>- 1 lican parly designated as mugwump-. Grant that to lie true so far a* the state of New York and perhaps other sections of the north are concerned, and conceding that so far as relates to these i particular sections that the president ought to distribute his patronage between democrats ami disallcctcd republicans. Yet, no such element of defection from the republican ranks existed at tlie south, l>ul the Note, cast here was all Simon pure democratic. -No iv.i-un can be urged therefore why, at the south,! the appointees should not all lie from the i ranks of the president's own party. Ineoiiversati.nl with a gentleman the 1 other day who enjoys an opportunity to know the views of the administration, we were gratified to learn that ttie posi tions taken in tiiis article will he the policy to be pursued by Mr. Cleveland in future in the southern states and shortly to be earnestly inaugurated and vigor ous! v carried out. support of all Undemocratic factions— Tammany, Irving hall and the county de mocracy. Tiiis gives the par'y a united front, and thus the election of their can didate is assured Although Mr. Hewitt is a member of the county democracy, he was nominated hy Tammany. It is, per haps, well that the pressure of the occa sion lias obliged the democrats to sink their local quarrels and combine upon their best man. Aside from the fact that Mr. Hewitt is j an excellent illustration of tlie best ele ment in tlie democratic party, there are other reasons that commend iiis election, j Tlie Baltimore Sun says of him that in j every sense of the term Mr. Hewitt fill- j fills that requirement. As a manufac- j ttiror and extensive employer of labor, his relations with his employes have al ways been of the best. In congress be exhibited statesmanlike qualities and a freedom from extreme partisan- j ship that won for him the respect of both sides of the house, while his nomination by Tam many as mayor of New York has drawn even from the partisan Tribune the warmest testimony to “his capacity, purity of intention and absolute integ rity.” Tlie New York Sun speaks of him oh “a straight, fair and able man,” and of his nomination, if lie accepts it, as "equiv alent to an election.” It is to his credit that he did not seek tlie nomination and would avoid it if he could. He does not want to go to congress again, and in the condition of his health would prefer to take no public office, especially one so responsible and harassing as that of mayor of New York, but lie lias yielded his private wishes to the earnest demand made upon him by the united organiza tions to tlie end that the fusion of the factions may lie accomplished, and that they may work for his election harmo niously together. The Boston salesman who was lately sent to the poorhou.se (he had received $18,000 a year from a New York house during a part of his life), is used as a forcible illustration by a local paper, which says: Two brothers worked in the same store. One was the head porter, with a yearly salary of $1000, and the other was a salesman, who received $6000 per annum. The last mentioned had only himself and wife to support, yet he was always poor, owing to expensive habits, while the first, with a family of eight or nine children, grew gradually rich, and lent his extravagant brother $1000, which he found hard to get back. This is a practical illustration of the old fable of the hare and the tortoise. I COLUMBUS ! ron Works COMPANY, Columbus, - - - - Georgia.

The nomination of Mr. Abram S. Hewitt to the mayorality of New York cannot be regarded otherwise than as a master stroke of policy. Mr. Henry George, the nominee of the labor unions and indorsed by a considerable number of distinguiseed citizens ami business men of the city, bad almost pract ically no opposition. He is a man of high character and is suit! to he unhampered by pnrty ties. He had and still has a strong following which at one time in troduced a great deal of uncertainty into the campaign as to who would he elect ed. The democrats seemed to appreciate the fact that it would require the nomi nation of an able and reputable man and a strong and vigorous effort upon their part to defeat him, and lienee they nominated Mr. Abram S. Hewitt. This nomination may he regarded as a master stroke of policy, as it forces the A CARD.
