Calhoun and Webster discussed the burning questions of an earlier tlma la atilt worthy of any cause which may be debated there. With the development of the autocrat ic and tyrannical power of the speak er, the house of reprea* a tat Ives has ceased to be a dellborat.ve assembly.! In Ibe higher and larger sense of the term: but the traditions and habits of thought of the senate have remained unaltered, throughout a period of 10- j < essant change The style of de-: hate In that august body Is no doubt somewhat less rhetorically brilliant than It was of yore; but all that has been lost in that particular has been more than made up In the direction of the practical. If one would realize the tremen dous debating power of the senate, he must consider it when some momen tous question comes up without a mo ment's notice. About a year ago Senator Pettigrew introduced ft reso lution concerning the Pacific rail roads, or something of the sort. A very remarkable debate ensued in which senators were called upon with out a moment's notice to trace tha whole domain of public law and pub lic policy. No assembly could have arisen to the occasion In a grander way. A number of the speeches were wor thy of an assembly on any occasion. Men like Teller and Wolcott and I/odge displayed in a few momenis the monumental results of years of thought and training. That Impromp tu debate gave one a conception of the .readiness of the gTeat race of soldier-statesmen who constituted the Reman Senate In Us palmiest days. It is the duty of senators to adequate ly prepare themselves for the great ordeal which they are about to under go. It is also the duty of the American people and the organs of üblic opin ion to assit by a thorough preliminary discussion of the overshadowing questions at issue. In the conception of the constitution, senators are the ambassadors of sovereign states, and they are never more fully invested with that lofty character than when they meet to consider the treaties to which the faith of the nation is pledged. In that august assembly, the state must depend for its influence upon the character and ability of its ambassador: In the numerical sense.

H.—Prof. C. F. Brackett, 1,1, !» . M. D., who Is the bend of the electrical department In Princeton I'nlveralty and one of tlw tieNt known of American electrician*, was seen this afternoon by a reporter and asked his opinion with regard to the validity of Nicola Tesla's claimed dlac-overy of an appliance hy which na val warfare will be levolutlonlged. The learned professor said: ' The shorleat criticism I r an make Is. that what Is newt In Teslas dlac-overy is useless and what Is not useless had all been discovered long before T'-sla made his startling announcement. The whole theory which he has applied you will find In anv modern textbook on electricity, and what Tesla has done Is only to make a theoretical application, which would be ridiculous In applica tion. "The theory, therefore, is not original and while It would l»e practical under certain conditions, ll would be a failure In circumstances under which Its ap plication would la- necessary. "The minute and carefully adjusted mechanical experiments which ate pre supposed In his theory require the qui et and uninterrupted laboratory to lie worked successfully and could not be put into execution In the din and up roar of battle. The theory lx ail vqtv well, but in application the tv hole phase of the matter Is changed, and the thing becomes an absolute Impossibili ty, owing to the mechanical and nat ural Impediments whoch could not be overcome."

Wheeling “(lone Out.” Not only has wheeling "gone out," hut there is a great difference to he noticed In the \vholers. It Isn't so much a mat ter of numbers that sets the pace of a rashion: It is the quality of those num bers,' The many may strain every nerve and put forth every effort, but they will never accomplish the same results In the way of sanction ns the mere nod from the few. Two years ago lroth the few arid the many ryclrd, and cycling was fashion able. Today for whatever reason the many cycle, hut the few do not. and cycling has become unfashionable. The wheeling folk to be met on the road and at the halfway houses are essentially of another type than smart. If there bo any reason for the change beyond sheer caprice and the fate de creeing that every fashion shall have its day and then clear the stage for the next one, it Is due to the very gen eral of overdoing It. While the bicycle fever was at its heighth, everybody realized this, and everybody, both wheelers and non wheelers, pointed out how in the end it would he sure to prove the min of the sport. But neither thieat. Warning or plead ing was of any aVail, and the majority of cyclists kept Oh a-seroching just the same, especially the women cyclists.

Let me ask my fellow cltlxena where we are drifting in the rontvnt that Is being waged in the Fourth and Fifth? Ixjok at the paper* of the country; look at poor Wilmington,and the que*- 'rlon la anxwerrd. Negro domination, jt'an you imagine a worse condition? ■ Yet this I* what a few men hungry for office would force upon the people of this community, God help us to avert It and to turn down those who. for their petty vanity, would place ua in such a position. I say plainly that the time for pat ting the negro on the back and apolo gizing through (he press for every thing that happens has passed. It la time for the preas and tbe people to say, and sa.v plainly, that this Is a while mail's government, and that the white mpp propose to run It. lari six of tl*e leading papers In the South take up thi* line uod you will soon sec all others fall In. No one falls to sec In the dnily press the claims they are working for the good of ihe South. And how. pray tell me? 1 will answer the question royeelf. By pandering to the nJigro to control offices for tfiem sclveH and friends. The writer would at this juncture suggest that there be formed at this time (Not luter, but now) a club to b » known os the White I’riniury Club of the City of Augusta. Got into the o’ub every registered voter who favors white supremacy. Organize for an ag gressive campaign. Go to the candi dates In tbe two wards where there Is a contest in which it is proposed to bull pen the negro vote and say to them: You mysl declare yourself. Do you stand for and favor a white pri mary to determine who shall go to council from this ward? Submit tha question to both aspirants, and if both answer in the affirmative, then see thal It Is arranged. Should one decline, then let the whole strength of the organiza tion be turned to his defeat, and that with the very clement he has depended upon. Do tills Just once and you will find that It will be a long time before you again find a man who will defy the chosen method of the white people of this community. For the good of your city, for the good of your country, for the good f your immediate family, give heed to this appeal. It Is an appeal to your better self, an appeal to turn from your own selfish ends for tire good of home. Home and Good Government Club. Mclntosh Is still fight.ng for hay.
