The Secretary of the Interior, in his
I annual report, cails attention to a fact that
j is not generally known with regard to the
1 attendance at the public schools in the
Nortli and South. He says: “The pro-
! gressive decrease in the number of public
I school pupils as compared with the pop-
I ula.tion in the Northern States, which has
! already been referred to in the report of
this otiiee, is still going on. In point of
ee a beautiful oil copy of the famous f a ,.[ there has been during the past year
an absolute decrease in the number of pu
pils enrolled in six of the Northern States,
and in one other, New York, there lias
been an increase of only .744 pupils,
against an increase of school population of
over 30,00(1." The percentage ot popu
lation enrolled as public school pupils
in 1870 in the North Atlantic division was
321, in 1880 was 20.2 and in 1888 was 13.3.
j The percentage in the South Atlantic
division in 1870 was 6.3, in 1880 was lb.4
and in 1889 was 18.7. The explanation
j given of this apparent retrograde move-
| ment in the Xoitln-rn States is the increase
| in private and parochial schools and the
| tendency to refrain from sending children
to school at as early an age as heretofore,
J whereby the number of very young
I pupils has diminished. In Massachusetts^,
for instance, the nnmber of pupils under
live years of age lias decreased during
each of the last ten years. There is
another cause tor the decline in public
school attendance at the North,
to which the Secretary does not
allude, but which has unquestion
ably exercised a strong influence
iu bringing about the result noticed. In
nearly all of the large cities and thickly
populated Northern communities tin-
public schools Lave had their efficiency
greatly impaired by having fallen mule]
the control of the poili ieiaiis. Eoueaiion
and politics do not go t. g the), ami wher
ever the political machine has been able
to annex or absorb the school system it
has been to the immediate and obvious
(leiriirunt of the lat er. In the South,
where bosses and machines are compara
tively unknown, the public schools have
not yet been contaminated, and are doing
their work so well as to make them popu
lar and attractive. In Georgia especially
every effort lias been exerted, and with
success, to keep our public school system
tree from political influences, and any
attempt in other directions will be met
with strenuous opposition,
A NEW APPORTIONMENT.
There is a gratifying awakening inter
est in Georgia on the question of our pub
lic school system and tlie necessity of en- !
iareirnr its facilities and increasing its j

j Assembly is in full sympathy with the

stantial aid and encouragement.
Governor Northen, too, is known
j to be a staunch friend of the
I common schools, and it is stated that he
I contemplates sending in a special message
urging such legislation as will greatly im-
I prove the system. It would be a wise
step on the part of 1lie Governor to take
su'-h aclion. The legislature cannot pos
sibly engage in a better work than the im-
avenue. It was nearly 3 o'clock this morn
ing before the firemen succeeded iu sub
duing the fire. It was several hours more
before they gave up the search for bodies.
It is pretty certain that Mr. arid Mrs. Ir
win, the janitor and his wife, were tiie
only victims. When the lire broke
out there were forty occupants
sleeping in the flat, bn. they j
were mostly men and all have i><:< u j

flakes of icy snow, was blowing from the I
west when the firemen arrived. 8moke. :

Washington, Dec. 4.—Indications for
Georgia, Alabama and Mississippi:
warmer, fair, southerly winds.
Somebody has coined the word “motor-
neer,’’ to designate the person who man
ages the motor on an electric car.
London dispatches speak of frost and
snow on the shores of the Mediterranean,
which has not occurred during the last
twenty years.
“Every newspaper man,” says an ex
change, “has at some time in his business
experience met the man who ‘now takes
more papers than he can read.’ ” Yes, he
is occasionally seen in Columbus.
The Boston Herald naively remarks that
“the first thought that occurs after read
ing the President’s message is that, its au
thor has not yet heard of the result of the
elections of the 4th ultimo.”
A Republican editor says that the Presi'
dent's message is valuable in an “extraor
dinary degree for the new and pertinent
information it contains." This is enough
to make a horse laugh.
There are nearly .70,000 colored people
in New York City. ISome of them have
built up fortunes in real estate speculation.
Oue of them accumulated an estate worth
$100,000 in the catering business. A num
ber are worth $200,000 each.
Several measures are pending in Con
gress providing for a new apportionment
of Congressional representation on the basis
of Porter’s census. The President referred
to it in his message us a duty devolving
upon the present Congress, and the Re
publican leaders look upou it as a party
necessity, and like all of their party neces
sities it is based on fraud. '1 hat Porter’s
census is grossly defective few people in this
whole country will deny. Cumulative evi
dence of it may be gathered in every
State in the Union. In some Democratic
strongholds the discrepancy is so glaring
and palpable as to create the suspicion that
the work was fiaudulent and corrupt, aiui
the action of the authorities in refusing to
correct the wrong makes tin m a party to
it. There should be no new apportion
ment on the basis of this census. It would
fasten a false representation upon the
country for the next ten years and it
should be resisted to the last. The Demo
crats in the present Congress should ex
haust every resource in the defeat of the
pending bills, and we believe they will.
nor can they render the State a greater
public service than in providing adequately
for the education of the children of Geor
gia. it will require money, and a great
deal of it, but Georgia is able to spend.
■~>he cannot spend it to better profit than
on her own children, and we are satisfied
the people will gladly bear the burden,
whatever it may be.

■Mr.
forgott.
St. Louis Republic makes the fol-
eomment on ilie President's nies-
Harrison has learned no hing and
i no,h.ng. lb* insists on high
taxation and excessive expenditures for
subsidies and bonuses u his second mes-
-age, as in his first. He indorses the
McKinley bill and protests against making
any change in it. He indorses the W'indom
Bullion Purchase scheme of silver demone
tization and arrays himself against the
free coi age of silver. His message is
mostly devoted to dreary common-place-
ness, and is. in this respect, below the
.ow level of Lis fir,-.t. Only once does he
rise above the eompleieiv insipid. When
ne reiurus to the charge on the Force bill,
tiis malice against the people of the South
makes him almost impressive. He assumes
that ail their objection to his Returning
Board system of controlling them is based
on a fixed and general purpose on their
part, to commit crimes of fraud and vio
lence, and on the basis of this assumption
he shows vliat, for him, is a remarkable
degree of ingenuity in twitting them
with folly imputed to them by himself, or
arraigning them for crimes which he
assumes they intend to commit.”
There seems to be a wide-spread oppe*
sitiou to the “Twitty bill.” The opinion
is that the law would result in harm, and
the worst sufferer by it would be the
farmer. The Georgia Senate can be relied
ou to kill it.
Rev. (.'. (’. Williams, I). 1)., of Augusta,
is spoken of in connection with the bish
opric of the Episcopal diocese of Georgia.
Rev. I)r. Williams is about fifty-five years
of age, and is regarded as one of the ablest
divines in the Episcopal church of this
State.
It was left to a farmer's legislature to
appropriate money to improve the new
capitol grounds. The last legislature,
composed largely of lawyers aud politicians,
during a session of 200 days, didn't have
time to look after the State's property.
Porter and Noble still insist that the
census is “reliable," aud yet nearly one-
half of the census enumerators all over
the country have not had their accounts
settled because their work was i.ol satis
factorily done.
A Buffalo physician who has examined
under a microscope the straps to which
the stand-up passengers of the street cars
of that city hold ou says that they are
fairly reeking with bacteria of the most
dangerous kind. The physician with a
microscope in search of baetili, fever
germs, microbes, bicteria and so ou is al
ways liable to excite an unnecessary alarm.
Says the Chicago Herald: Placards are
displayed in all the New York cigar stores
announcing an increase in the price of
cigars on account of the McKinley bill.
"Fifteen straight” instead of the popular
“two-for-a-quarter" will stir up the men
quite as thoroughly as the high-priced dry
goods stir up the women. As an “educa
tor” the McKinley bill beats the Cleveland
message.
The New York World has this spicy par
agraph: In her able remarks to Parlia
ment the Queen admitted the grave possi
bilities of famine in Ireland on account of
the failure of the potato crop, which shows
quite plainly that Her Majesty does not
get her news about Ireland from Mr. Bal-
The Enquirer-Sun has received a cony
of Williams’ Manual of Investments for
tiie year 1890, containing important facts
and figures regarding Southern Investment
Securities. This manual has been com
piled by John T. Williams A Co., bank
ers, of Richmond, Ya., to whom we are
indebted for a copy, and it is one of the
most valuable and complete works of the
kind we have seen. This manual is pre
sented to the clients and correspondents
ot the firm without charge, but they have
set aside a limited number of copies for
the benefit of tiiose who have no business
relations with their house and expect to
have none, which may be obtained for $2
by addressing John T. Williams A Son,
Richmond. Ya. A special feature of the
manual is its railroad reports, which are
comprehensive in this edition, and which
give railroad earnings and other informa
tion down to March, April and May, 1890.
as well as detailed statements of opera
tions of the various companies for last
fiscal year, and their general, physical and
financial condition. This information is
furnished to tiie public some months in
advance of its publication by other leading
railio.td authorities.
The Philadelphia Ledger, Republican,
in a running comment on President Harri
son’s message, has the following to say
touching the reference to the Force bill:
“The Federal election laws is tlie last
topic of the message. It is dispassionately
treated, the President calling attention to
tiie fact that such laws arc not new things
—that they already exist—that they as
sume control of Congressional elections—
that they are necessary for the assurance
of “free and honest elections”—that the
existing laws stop just short of the line of
effectiveness for that purpose; that they
should be developed fully enough to make
them effective, and that they should be so
enacted as to be "absolutely non-partisan
and impartial.” Few fair-minded men
will gainsay this. Certainly we will not.
But the President should not let this other
point, escape his view, nor should Congress
either, that the pending bill is the product
of most inveterate partisanship, both as to
its paternity and as to the House of Rep
resentatives that passed it. It would fall
by lh<; President’s own test.”
President Harrison, in his message, esti-
mv.es the. expenses of the Government
luting the fiscal year of 1,892 at $357,000,-
0 0. The .Secretary of the Treasury has
sent to Congress a statement making an
estimate of $407,000,000. The clerks of
the House and Senate committees have
prepared a table according to which the
Government expenses for 1892 will be
$4.si,O00,(i0(). The administration is evi-
'i-cs-ly rattled.

Moore, wife of the steward at the Hotel j
Anderson. Instantly the ladders turned '
up and siie was among the first rescued,
lhe top floor was occupied by sixteen |
parsons, Mr. and Mrs. Irwin and fourteen
men, employes of the Hotel Anderson. At !
tiie first alarm, Irwin ran down through j
the hails, which were already tilled with !
smoke, to alarm the occupants of the |
rooms. He went as far as tiie second floor j
and then rushed back to assist his I
wife. When lie returned to bis j
room she was not there. Filled with anx- j
iely for her welfare he began a search of I
the buil ling. He cashed f.om room to
room on the fourth ffior and, not finding
her started for the third. It was ih<-ie he
died. Overcome by smoke he sank ex
hausted near the rear wall on the floor,
aud at the other end of the hall the wife
for wiiom he died had perished. She had
started down stairs, hut was suffocated
before reaching the third floor. Her
body was found on the third laud
ing dead, lier body was covered with
plaster and in the darkness had been
trampled over by the firemen a long time
befoie it was discovered. The building
was a four-story brick. The first floor
was used by Joseph Kimwell & Go. as a
drug store, and the other three floors for j
sleeping apartments. The fire is sup- |
posed to have started in the basement j
from the heating boilers. There was no j
watchman and the flames had spread to
the fourth story before they were discov
ered. There were no fire escapes on the |
building. The loss is $40,000, fully cov
