Three jears hnve elapsed since congress appropriated $50,000 to erect a public building in Rome, and two years have passed since the lot was bought.' In the same bill there was an appropriation for a public building at Columbus Ga, and the site for that building was bought at the time when the govern ment lot was bought here. Young Windom, the government agent who made the selection, came directly from Columbus to Rome. The two enterprises we>e launched at the same time, and and up to a certaiu time were carried forward in concert. Since then the work here has been side-tracked and the government building at Columbus has gone on to completion. We understand that the edifice there is finished and ready to be occupied. But for this fact we would be in clined to make large allowance for the condition of the treasury, but the question naturally arises, why has Columbus been favored while Rome has been given the go by ? If the government intends to do this work at any time within the next five years, it could better do it now than a year later. The saving in the cost of material would be considerable. Municipal govern ments all over the country are tak ing advantage of the prevailing low prices to build public works and statistics show that an unusual •mount of work is being done by cities. ‘ The effect of this policy is two fold. It not only secures the con struction of good work at remarks bly low prices, but it also gives em ployment to labor at a time of great depression. We could not urge the government to squander the public revenues in work not already con templated, or to advance construe tion by any wasteful expenditures, but when the appropriation hereto fore made, for buildings already planned and decided on, can be economize by proceeding at once in an era of low prices, we think it is elearly to the interest of the gov ernment as well as of labor and in dustry, that the work proceed without delay. r As far as the contemplated deficit is concerned, that takes account of apprppriations already made, and when congress provides ways and means, to meet the deficit, it pro vides forthe expenditure of, money already appropriated.: \ Congress will 1 undoubtedly make such pro vision. No revenue bill has been outlined or suggested, which does not propose by one tax or another to meet the deficit which Secretary Carlisle has estimated. We see no reason then, why the work should not proceed, and we trust that our representative will be able to press this view of the matter successfully. AN OPPORTUNITY. Somebody is going to get a bar gain in the Rolling mill property. It represents an investment of $45,000, besides the site, which was given as a bonus by the land company. It, once made money and is likely to dp so again. It is the frequent history of such concerns that, after being sold out in times of depression for half or less than half their cost, they get into the hands of of practi cal men and become profitable in vestments. Indications are not wanting of a revival of industry. Here and there the resumption of work in a factory, or the blowing in of a furnace shows which way the wind blows. The storm is over and ths tide is begin ning to ebb. Soon Dew ventures will be going out to sea. We have got one more obstacle in our way— the tariff—and in a few months that question will be settled, we hope, for a n timer of years. Then look for a general resumption of business at the old stand by the American people. Before he year is over we expect to see the rolling mill in op eration again What are the signs in our imme diate neighborhood? Round Mouu tain furnace, after lying dead for two years, will be blown in within two or three weeks. The West Rome Foundry, after going through liqui dation, has resumed operations in a small way. The furniture factory has been through a similar exper ience, and is now running on full time, with seventy five hands. Mayor King is goin » to build a store and a residence, both of the tand somest kind, and we hear that his neighbor, Captain Glover, wih keep him company. These and the gov ernment building will give work for a number of hands. We hear o( other stores and residences not fully determined on, but likely to be built. It seems to us that present conditions are much more favorable to industry than those with which the year 1893 began, and we think this will be clear enough when the tariff issue, which now muddles the situation, has been finally decided. A New Zealand newspaper tells a story with reference to the recent law granting female suffrage there. At a performance in the Opera House, Wellington, some ladies seated in the stalls had on very large hats. A voice from the pit was heard to exc'aim, “Now you’ve got the fja’tchiso you ought to tase your hats on! - ’ This suggestion was greeted with roars of laughter. WHAT ABOUT GENERAL EVANS? [rrom th® AuguHa Chronicle.] As to bi® bUHineaa oapaciiy aek the businesa mao of Augusta, who have had him in their couhOt's and chosen him to manatee their in'ereets. As to bis interest in the prosperity of Auuusta, ioqiire about his work for the punlio libraij; his membership and in terest in the BgricuUural association of Richmond county; his work for the flist exposition; the churches he has built and remodeled in Augu-o.a, and in general every public enterprise that engaged the City .and ooquiy while he was hete. As to his interest in the poli ioal wel fare of this section, dotisultihe men wi'h whom he has been in council and whom he h><B brilliantly assis-ed in their efforts for the euocess of democracy in every way that was possible As 'o bi® fidelity to the cause of the people, in town or country, consultour meiQbants and all other classes. As to bis unremitting work io the min istry of the gospel, it q tire of the ebu ch es which he setved in Augusta and the dicuit be rode iu K'chmoad cou tty, and then it quite of Piotestants, Catholics and Israelites if his ministry was not always conciliatory and brothe ly among all, without any compromise of his own convictions. Ask the poor and suffering of this city if beever turned away ftom their cry, and they Will tell you of his standing by them iu sickness, in threatened epidemic, in freshets, in their loss of work, audio their poverty as 'heir never failing fri-ud. Ask the old soldiers what they think of him? They will tell you that tbiseby fumi-hed part of his commtud, and they know all ab >ut his service iu thereat Conf t derate war. They will tedyou that the Ladies’ Metaorlal Association chose him as their orator w’hen the foundation atone of the beautiful monument on Broad street was hid, and that he then delivered a speech which was quoted with praise by the great papers of the south and north. The Soldiers made him the first presi dent of the Richmond County Survivors’ association. They gave him (an ovation during the Confederate days of the late exposition, and, knowing him well, they now embody their sacred sen intent in him, and with their sons they will ele vate him to the office of governor. Ask the man of Augusta ,what they h »ve to say, and they will reply that his advance into bis present age of sixty baa not decreased his interest in , them nor separated them from him in heart, or head, or band. They find him always cordial, always ready to promote their cause and to encourage their worthy ambitions. Ask anybody in this region about him and the common reply will be that the will of (be people so widely expressed ought not to be opposed, but he should be place.! in the governor’s chair for his ability, his fidelity and his services to his state. He stands squarely by the platform of the democracy; he is for his party and bis people and not against them; be will be true and fai'hful to every section and , every class.
