AN INVITATION.
We invite our friends to be pres
ent at the exhibition of our new
Thorne Type Setter in The Tribune
composing room between four and
six o’clock this afternoon. It is a
marvelous piece of mechanism, which
every one who cares to keep up with
the progress of the times should see.
Mr. E. M. Andrews, of the Thorne
Type Setting Machine Company,
will be present, with two expert op
erators from the factory. These
young ladies have a record of 6,500
ems an hour for seven consecutive
hours, and at the world’s fair, they
set type for a short time at the rate
of 8,000 ems per hour. A few days
ago, in the composing room of the
Atlanta Journal, they set 41,700
ems in six and one-half hours, or
about 6,400 per hour. This is equal
to the work of six or seven hand
compositors.
The installation of this machine,
we believe, will mark a new era in
The Tribune’s history, and we trust
that its superb work will set the
pace for all other departments of
this paper.
A DEMAGOGUE’S DILEMMA.
Governor Tillman, the typical
demagogue of the Southern States,
has ruled South Carolina with an
iron rod for three years, and the
bitter fruit of violence begins to
mature.
Speaking of a recent utterance of
Tillman’s, the News and Courier
makes this scathing arraignment of
him:
‘•lt is said that Governor Tillman
is “worried about the turn things
have taken,” and that he “seems
heartily to regret the trouble” at
Welford, Spartanburg Countv, which
resulted in the serious wounding of
one white man and in the death of
another. In a statement touching
this bloody affair made to the news
paper correspondents at Columbia
on Monday, he said :
“I deprecate along with all g
men the spirit of lawlessness and the spir
it to incite resistance to the law, and to
magnify and distort all efforts to enforce
it into acts of tyranny and blood-thirstiness
The dispensary law is not on trial as much
as all law and obedience to the recogniz d
channels through which laws are enforced- '
1 invoke the moral support of all good citi- ■
zens, whether they are in favor of the dis
pensary law or not, to put down this re
bellious spirit. I intend to put it down '
with an iron hand, but the collision between
the constables, the sheriffs and other offi
cers of the law and the violators of the law
will be ' ought to
know, and do know, better would seek to
discourage the lawless elements of society
in this resistance.”
“ ‘The Devil was sick, the Devil a
monk would be.’ The Governor
deprecates ‘the spirit of lawnesses,
and the spirit to incite resistance to
the law,’ and invokes “the moral
support of all good citizens, whether
they are in favor of the dispensary
law or not, to put down this ‘re
bellious spirit.’ The Governor who
has not heretofore trained with law
abiding men, and who has himself
taught the spirit of lawlessness,
who has incited resistance to law,
and who has never before invoked
‘the moral support of all good citi
zens,’ pleads now for the sympathy
and assistance of those whose wise
counsels he has disregarded and
whose friendly admonitions he has
spurned. ‘The “Devil is sick, the
Devil a monk would ‘be.’ ”
“The Mob Law Governor has
reached the end of his tether—he
cannot go forward in his lawless
course without disastrous conse
quences; he cannot go back because
he has never been known to admit
that he was wrong or to seek to re
pair an injury; he cannot even stand
still without the aid of those whom
he now invokes to save him from the
storm which he has aroused.”
A BLACK SHADOW REMOVED.
The black shadow of the federal
election laws has been removed, let
us hope, forever. The action of the
house and Senate in repealing a law
i characteristic of the reconstruction
period and bearing on its face the
ttimp Jof sectional animosity, may
1 be said to ring down the curtain on
the last scene in the great drama,
of which the ruling passion was tl e
hatred of brethren. In the amend
ments to the constitution, our fun
damental la-v bears the impress of
the revolution which changed for
ever the industrial system of this
continent, and introduced a new feat
ure in its suffrages. These are pe>-
manent records which cannot be de
stroyed, but the more odious record
of sectional animosity has been
erased by the repeal cf the federal
e'ection laws of 1870.
It would be interesting to specu
late on the effect of this erasure upon
the politics of the future. The old
characters have been wiped off the
nation’s slate and hereafter we may
make new ones. What will they be?
New and strange questions have
arisen, causing new alignments and
making strange political bed fel
lows. Evidently we are at the be- I
ginning of anew political era, where
in the forces destined to dominate
are in a formative state.
There are rumors of a belligerent
coolness between Health Officer
Brunner, of Savannah, and Judge'
Mershom, a Representative in the
Legislature from Glynn county. The
Judge had a bill before the House
to establish a State board of health,
and during his speech in advocacy
of the measure he charged Dr. Brun
ner with being responsible for the
introduction of yellow fever in Bruns
wick, and referred to him as a man
“dwarfed in nature and small in
calibre.” Dr. Brunner, in his annual
report recently submitted to the
citv council of Savannah, pays his
respectis to Judge Mershom by say
ing:
“The semi-inebriate who cham
pioned this bill, in order that his
bill should be brought into promi
nence, made several statements
against the incumbent cf this office,
all of which he knew were false;
that is, if he knew that he made
them.”
Both gentlemen are said to have
plenty of courage and trouble is ex
pected when they meet again.
The present Mrs. Thomas Nelson
Page, as is already known, was a
widow. Her little daughter of nine
or ten years was the one person
above all others to whom she dread
ed to break the news of the engage
ment with Mr. Page. It at length
became necessary to do this, how
ever, and she set about the task with
all possible diplomacy. As she had
feared, the little girl, on learning
the fact that her mother was to be
married again, wept profusely.
Finally the mother said that the
gentleman she was going to marry
was Mr. Page. The sobs of the lit
tle girl suddenly ceased. “You
ought to have told me that at first,”
she said, in a mollified tone. “Why,
I’ve been in love with him myself
for over a year !”
Kittie—l heard today ym married your
husband to reform him?
Sarah—l did.
Kittie—Why, I didn’t know he had any
bad habits.
Sarah —He had one; he was a bachelor.
