The Danger In Delay.
The following extracts,taken from two
of the leading papers of the United
States, point to overwhelming disaster
for the Democratic party if the factious
fights which delay business are not soon
ended.
The New York Sun says:
“The Republicans continue to win
elections throughout the North. Those
held in the Empire State on Tuesday
•were somewhat of the clean-sweep va
riety. The only break in the accumu
lating burden of Democratic disasters
was in Elmira and Troy.
“Why do the Republicans continue to
win elections throughout the country,
and most conspicuously in the Northern
States? Has the support of the uncon-i
stitutional tariff by some Democrats in j
Congress anything to do with the mat
ter?”
The Sun thinks the trouble arises in
the fact that the Wilson tariff admits
raw material free. The Herald, on the
contrary, thinks it is delay and inaction
that does the damage, and in this it
agrees with the majority of business
men. The Herald says:
“If an election were held now the
democrats would be swept from power
by a tidal wave of popular 1 indignation
such as the country has not seen for
twenty years.
“Unless the party leaders can speedily
wrest success from their dismal failure
and win back the public confidence they
have lost, a republican landslide at the
Congressional elections in November I
will be inevitable.
“What a spectacle is presented to the '
country! The Tariff bill has been in
the Senate five weeks and is still held
back by the Finauce Committee. When
it will be reported and what it will be
when it is reported nobody knows. All
that is known is that its progress has
been obstructed by a coterie of Dem
ocratic Senators haggling over protection
for their respective local industries.
These men are either blind or indifferent
to the feet that not only have they put
the democratic party, but are also doing
all they can to put the country, on the
road to ruin.
“Nothing could be more disastrous to
the country than the delay which they i
are causing. Already the spring trade
is ruined and the autumn trade men- !
aced. While the tariff agitation is kept ,
up, with its consequent business sus- !
pense, there can be no revival of trade I
or industry. Unless it is soon settled
the prevailing stagnation must grow
worse, until the country is brought to
the verge of one of the worst panics it
has ever known.
“So urgent is the need of relief, so
pressing the necessity of speedy action
that the vital question has ceased to be
one of schedules and become one of
action. Any revision promptly adopted
is now preferable to delay. It would
even be better for the country for Con
gress to adjourn, go home and let the
McKinley law stand indefinitely than
prolong the delay which is inviting panic.
“Where are the democratic leaders
and what are they doing while a dem
ocratic Senatorial clique are blundering
to the peril of the party and the disaster
of the country? How is it that in such a
crisis Mr. Cleveland goes off goose hunt
ing and Mr. Carlisle and Mr. Voorhees
are apparently passive spectators of the
mischief that is being wrought?
“If the party has any capable leaders
is it not about time for them either to
wake up or give up?”
We think the Herald is a trifle hys
terical in its cry of panic. There is no
question that business halts because of
the tariff, but with money on call at one
per cent and commercial paper at 4)£
5 per cent in New York, and -with stocks
rising on change, -we are a long way off
from panic. Still the Herald’s rebuke of
the senatorial cabal headed by Senator
David B. Hill, is richly deserved. New
York has again the melanchoUy satis
faction of knowing that she sent to the
Senate the man who is doing the most
of the damage, and doing most to cause
the delay which is so keenly felt by the
commercial interests of the Metropolis.
But New York is not the only suf
ferer by the delay which Senator
Hill’s intrigue causes. All the States
suffer in their business, and this shows
conspicuously the vital concern -which
every State has in the good govern
ment of all other states. When trick
sters like Hill get into high office, they
hurt the whole country.
About Competition.
The following from one of the leading
ice journals of the country, “Ice and
Refrigeration”, published at Chicago,
will be read with interest:
“The thought sometimes occurs that
investors in ico making machinery for
get that ice making and selling is, in the
main, a local business; that -while no
one cam find fault with honest and honor
able competition, yet it is a very easy
matter to over do the business, and de
prive both competitors of a profit that
one could earn.
“It does not follow, by any means,
that because one factory in a town of
10,000 to 15,000 people can be operated
successfully, a second factory will be
equally successful. Yet we have recent
ly noted a couple of instances -where 10-
ton or 15-ton factories are being duplica
ted in towns under 15,000 people. This
is like paralleling railroads or duplica
ting metorpolitan gas plants: a waste of
money, generally without any material
advantage to the public; rather, the
contrary, for if an investment of $25,000
will servo a town with ice, it is a disad
vantage to them to have to support two
investments of the same amount where
one is su '.icieiit. Either the investors
must lose a part of or all the interest on
their investment, or the public must
pay an increased price for the servee ren
dered them.
‘‘There are plenty of open locations now
without doubling plants where one alone
can earn only a reasonable profit. The
subject is submitted to the‘respectful and
distiguished consideration’ of the trade.”
There is no law against competition,
but it is often very disastrous, wrecking
both competitors. This has been conspic
uously true of railroads, and the English
government is slow to grant new char
ters where it is not clearly shown that
existing roads are inadequate to the de
mands of business in that territory. We
have taken an opposite course in this
country and that is one of the reasons
why so many roads are in the hands of
receivers. The people always have pro
tection against monopoly in the fact that
extortion is sure to bring competition.
Men who,have the field are fools to abuse
the opportunity, for by doing so they
invite their own destruction. The con
servative and equitable view of business
is always the safest and most profitable.
The Hatch Bill.
The Hatch bill seems to be gaining
ground if we may believe the Washing
ton correspondent of the St. Louis
Republic. He says:
“The board of trade and exchange in
terests had their signal hearing on the
anti-option bill before the House Agri
culture Committee today. It developed i
a better feeling between them and Mr.
Hatch, the author of the bill. Hatch
made it clear, in frequent statements,
that he desired to suppress the illegiti
mate branches of trading, bucket-shops,
puts and calls and options—and not to
affect the legitimate trade in property
organized boards or exchanges. The
representatives of the latter agreed with
Mr. Hatch that bucketshop’s options
were not proper and said the only ex
ception they asked was in the line of
legitimate trading.
‘‘The Chicago Board of Trade was
heard today through Arthur Orr and
ex-Representative’ Abner Taylor. Mr.
Orr said that the Chicago board will co
operate toward the suppression of the
two evils and parasites of trade-bucket
shops and puts and calls. The board
had tried to suppress them, and had
secured laws against them. They had
no connection with legitimate specula
tion by “futures.” These helped the pro
ducers by giving them a ready market
and by carrying his stock until it was in
the foreign market. Chicago, he said,
is the highest relative wheat market in
the world, by at least 5 cents per bushel.
Mr. Orr said the committee gave undue
prominence to certain wild speculations
on the Chicago board, such as the re
cent one of Mr. Pardridge. Such spec
ulators always found their level and the
history of the board showed that even
tually they met financial ruin.
"Chairman Hatch informed Mr. Orr
that the sole purpose of the bill was to
suppress curbstone and bucketshop deal
ings and to confine operations to legiti
mate boards of trade. The committee,
he said, would be glad to have sug
gestions on so improving the bill as to
distinguish between futures and options,
so that the illegitimate would be sup
pressed, and the legitimate would be
legalized and upheld.
‘‘An interesting controversy arose as
to the manner in which members of the
i Chicago board operated in bucket shops.
' Mr. Hatch stated that at 1:30 p. m. daily
i the Chicago board adjourned. Then a
' bucket shop was operated until 5 o’clock,
i It was open to regular members of the
I Chicago Board of Trade and they did
' the bucket-shop trading.
I “Mr. Orr said that the board had
' sought to suppress this branch. It was
recognized as demoralizing. The regular
board gave no countenance to the buck
et-shop traders. Trades had to be en
forced by the good faith between the par
ties. Mr. Orr said that the board had
made rules against this practice, but had
been unable to enforce.”

! ‘‘Nary cent for blossoms,” is the fa
mous reply which Mr. William Ramey
made to Major Frank Jones when the
latter was showing off a residence with
a beautiful flower yard attached. That
’ was twenty years ago and people think
more of blossoms now. It is said that
one rosebush supports a family in At
lanta. It is a mammoth vine, which is
reported to have borne 5,000 roses in one
year. At twenty cents each, they made
SI,OOO. That is Henry Grady’s story
and nothing in Rome will quite equal
it, but Mr. John Taylor, the Fifth ward
florist, makes a handsome living on his
flower garden. His place continues to
' grow in favor and Ids success tea«has a
‘ lesson. Whatever you do, do well, if it
is only to dig a ditch. Good work al
' ways pays in the long run. The careless,
lick-and-a-promise lad will never be
' much of a success at anything. Every
j body thinks well of a man who magni
. ties his work, but nobody thinks well of
■ one who minimizes it.
Gen. Evans’ Qualifications.
Gen. Evans is not running on senti
ment; he is not running on his war rec
' ord; he is not running on his religious
' record. Ho is running because he has
i been called by a vast numbers of Gecr
' gians to become their standard-bearer in
; this gubernatorial campaign. He has
; never yet failed to obey the call of his
! people, and he never will.
* * *
Gen. Evans is not the candidate of any
clique or ring. He could not be used by
any selfish combination for ulterior pur
poses. He is entirely independent of
any political machine. He has no polit
ical friends to reward. He has no polit
ical enemies to punish. He will be the
governor of the whole people, looking
only to the welfare and prosperity of
the commonwealth.
* * »
While not a politician, Gen. Evans is
■ a statesman in the truest sense of the
i term. He is thoroughly versed in the
I governmental and political history of
I the country. He is familiar with the
. living, practical questions of the day.
He is true, as the needle to the pole,
to the principles and doctrines of the
THE RUME TRIBUNE, SUNDAY* MARCH 11, 1894.
democratic party. And he is in hearty
sympathy with the wants and necessi
ties of the common people.
• « •
| Gen. Evans has not lived the life of a
recluse. His life has been a part of the
life of his people. He has mingled free
ly with all classes He has been identi
fied with the best interests of the com
munities in which he dwelt. He has
given cheerfully of his means to build
up every worthy enterprise. He is con
versant with the vital problems that
confront the people of Georgia today.
» » *
No real, practical objection has yet
been urged against Gen. Evans’ can
didacy. His record is stainless. His per
sonal character is above reproach. In
war, he dedicated his life to his country;
in peace, to the service of God and his
fellow-man. The call of duty and of
honor found him ever ready to obey.
The nomination of Gen. Evans will
be an armor of strength to the democrat
ic party of Georgia. It will disarm the
criticism of its foes. It will remove
every vestige of excuse for opposition.
It will still factional dissensions and
conduce to harmony. It will place in the
gubernatorial chair a man whose only
ambition will be to serve his people well.

The report sent out from Atlanta that
little Tommie Watson has evolved out
of his feverish brain a red hot Prohi—
Pop gubernatorial campaign, with Wal
ter B. Hill as the standard bearer of the
combine, is not being confirmed with
any degree of rapidity. Walter Hill
declares he is ignorant of the scheme
and his knowledge of it limited to what
the newspapers have published about it.

form.—Columbus Enquirer.
A Kentucky editor has been sued for
libel by a widow because, in writing
what he thought was a beautiful obit
uary tribute to her husband, he re
marked that “the deceased had gone to
a happier home.” The stupid mascu
line mind will never comprehend the
deep, dark suspicions of the feminine
heart. ‘‘Do you mean me?” is the first
feminine thought, and the most cautious
and experienced masculine conversa
tionalist or writer is liable at any moment
to find himself plunged in a gulf of dark
despair in conseqquence of some perfect
ly innocent expression.—St. Louis Post-
Dispatch. '
The Macon Daily Beer publishes a local
rumor that Judge Charles Bartlett will
resign from the bench within the next
sixty days and enter upon a vigorous
campaign for congress in the sixth.
The same rumor has it that Judge Bart
lett has no intention of becoming a can
didate for one of the new associate jus
ticeships of the supreme bench, if they
should be created, that his ambition is
for a seat in congress.
Your Uncle Bob Hardeman,who varies
his duties of state treasurer, with those
of the office of bank examiner, in both

show that the Georgia banks are solid
and prosperous institutions.—Columbus

It begins to look now as if we would
,be able pretty soon to “ring up” Eu
rope over the ’phone. The question of
ocean telephony is being earnestly stud
ied and for a month experiments have
been carried on. The results that have
been obtained are the talk of the scien
tific world Keen attention to the sub

of a new electric wire, and, according
to some eminent authorities, it may rev-
I olutionize the present system of long

Congressman Catchings, of Mississip

I ability become chairman upon the res
■ ignation of Mr. Blanchard to accept the
' place in the senate to which he was
I appointed yesterday by the governor of

I the ablest me in the house, thoroughly
' alive to the responsibilities of his position

The Metropolitan Club.
When the income tax collectors get
down to business their work will be
greatly simplified by a reference to the
membership list of the new Metropolitan
j Club of New York. The Metropolitan
j is the very latest social organization in
! the metropolis. It is composed entirely
of millionaires, who have had a $3,000,-
000 clubhouse erected at Fifty-ninth
street and Fifth avenue, and is the
' wealthiest organization in the world,
j The membership at present includes
' more than 300 of Gotham’s money kings,
1 and it is anticipated that this number
j will be more than doubled before the
end of the year.
The clubhouse is the finest in its ap
pointments and decorations in this city'
and perhaps in the world. The furn’sh
ings cost $18,000,000 and include every
thing in the way of art known to the
connoisseur. The Manhattan Club,
which has its home in the old Stewart
mansion on Fifth Avenue 4 has hitherto
held the palm in this respect, but it is
cast far in the shade by the millionaires’
club.—St. Louis Republic.
The Man Who Wearied Carlyle.
There is a story of Carlyle in his old
age having taken the following farewell
in his,broadest Scotch of a young friend
who had had him in charge for walks,
and who, while almost always adapting
himself to Carlyle’s mood, had on a sin
gle occasion ventured to disagree with
him: "I would have you to know young
man,that you have the capacity of being
the greatest bore in Christendom.”
The boredom had consisted solely in
the rather negative sin of not having
been convinced of the truth of one of
Carlye’s dogmas, a sin the more
heinous because, instead of standing
boldly up to Carlyle and decaring his doc
trine utterly perverse,the companion had
betrayed his weakness by an apologetic
tone. Now, Carlyle liked disciples, and
he respected antagonists, but he could
not endure being merely thwarted with
out being thoroughy roused. He felt in
that case that he had made no impres
sion at all on his interlocutor,that he had
neither won him nor excited him to res
istance. And nothing bored him so
much as that. Os course it is only ex
ceptionally despotic minds that are
bored in this way.—The Spectator.

Rosy and dimpled and eight years old,
Went to Sunday school one fine day.
When grass was springing in balmy May;
The questions swiftly went r< und the class,
And soon came the turn of our little lass,
“Your duty to neighbors?” the teacher said.
Promptly replied our golden head,
•I don’t know that kind of duty, you see,
But I know plain duty as well as can be,”
Hie band, on her cnrls the teacher laid—
“ Well, what is ‘plain duty,’ my little maid?”
“Why, duty’s the thing’ —with a moment s
thought—
“ That you don’t want to do, but you know you
ought!”

/ STRANGE CASE.
How an Enemy was Foiled.
The following graphic statement will be-
I read with intense interest: ”1 cannot describe
the numb, creepy sensation thatexisled in my
arms, hands and legs. I had to rub and beat
those parts until they were sore, to overcome
in a measure the dead feeling that had taken
possession of them. In addition, I had a
strange weakness in my back and around my
waist, together with an Indescribable ’gone'
feeling in my stomach. Physicians said it
was creeping paralysis, from which, accord
ing to their universal conclusion, there is no
relief. Once it fastens upon a person, they
say, it continues its insidious progress until
it reaches a vital point and the sufferer dies.
Such was my prospect. I had been doctoring
a year and a half steadily, but with no par
ticular benefit, when I saw an advertisement
of Dr Miles’ Restorative Nervine, procured a
bottle and began using it. Marvelous as it
may seem, but a few days had passed before
every bit of that creepy feeling had left me,
and there has not been even the slightest
indication of its return. I now feel as
well as I ever did, and have gained ten
pounds in weight, though I had run down
from 170 to 137. Four others have used Dr.
Miles’ Restorative Nervine on my recomeu
dation, and it has been as satisfactory in their
cases as in mine.”—James Kane, La Rue, O.

i A $ PHILOSOPHER
j
has said that “manners make a boy’s 1
fortune, but a girl gets hers by the
accident of beauty.” Dress argu
ments both, for dress is taste, re- i
finement and comfort. It commends I
to the eye, it appeases to the artistic.
; To be dressed well is to feel well.
t The style makers of 1894 have con
sidered prevailing taste and artistic
effects. The goods we place before
you this season are beautiful in
color, fine in texture, striking, yet
neat in pattern. We keep all the
newest styles, but we do not expect
to keep them long, for Spring rush
has begun and soon these lovely
things will haye passed from us to
many others.
