A Delaware man has wagered JIOO that

It is about time for the GeD. firant

Anew swindling dodge is being played

The introduction or the bamboo in the
Southern States is urged, and it is thought

Mrs. Frank Leslie thinks it a shame
that the newspapers should print so much

it is. It the Marquis can convince such

Many theories are advanced about the

a misunderstanding somewhere.
They are raising a big row at Denver,

In some portions of Western Texas
thousands of sheep perished from cold
during the polar wave of last week. One
ranchman is said to have lost about 3,000
head. It is stated that where the sheep
were well attended the loss was very
small, as in such cases they were always
driven into well sheltered localities, where
the force of the wind was broken by the
hills and timber.
John Swinton received hundreds of an
swers to his circular stating that his pa

than it had been in the past. The letters
all contained expressions ef encourage

While Swinton is a very talented man, it
is feared that he will not be able to pay
his bills with expressions of encourage

After 33 weeks in the Ludlow street,
New York, jail, Miss Becky Jones, the
recalcitrant witness in the Hammerslcy

than ever before in her life, and as deter

about the testator. She will not have a
cat or dog as a companion, but passes her
time in sewing, knitting, writing oc her
book, and doing missionary work among
the other prisoners. It is about time for
the heartless old Judge to let her out.
At Chicago a colored man appeared on
the stage at one of Lulu Hurst’s perform

Manager Atkinson were perfectly willing
to admit that the colored man was alto

Lulu would have reached that conclusion
herself if she bad pushed him around the
stage until she got him pretty well warmed
up. The colored man was highly indig

Getting at the Truth.
The Springer committee, which is in
vestigating the charges against united
States Marshal Wright, of Ohio, is dis
covering seme very startling facts lhe
impression is very strong that the Repub
lican managers arranged to carry the
October election in Ohio by force, and
that Marshal Wright was their chief in
strument. A Republican victory in Ohio
in October, in their opinion, meant the
election of their Presidential candidate in
November.
Marshal Wright will not, of course,
disclose anything that will place his
party friends in an unfavorable light be
fore the country if be can help it.
He admits, however, that he appointed
1,300 special deputy marshals in Cincin
nati. and that they were all Republicans.
He also admits that he did not know
whether they were men of good or bad
character, and that they were armed.
In fact, he says that 600 revolvers were
sent to him from New \ork to be dis
tributed among these deputy marshals,
and that they were distributed. Who
furnished the pistols? On that point
Marshal Wright is not clear in his
testimony. He admits enough, however, to
leave no doubt that they were furnished
by the Republican National Committee.
Is there another instance in the history of
the country where a national committee
furnished arms to a hastily collected force
of government officials to be used at an
election?
What was it that it was proposed that
these 1,300 deputy marshals in Cincin
nati should do? Was it not proposed that
they should attempt to keep away from
the polls as many Democrats as possible,
and assist the Republicans in getting
their ballots in ballot-boxes? There Is no
other reasonable explanation of the ap
pointment and arming of so many irre
sponsible deputy marshaled
The Republican managers played a
very dangerous game. It is remarkable
that more lives were not lost on election
day in Cincinnati than there was. The
people were highly incensed at the con
duct of the Federal officials in filling the
streets and surrounding the ballot-boxes
with arm'Hl roughs, and with a very little
encouragement they would have attacked
them. What the result would have been
it is easy to guess. There would have
been a bloody riot, and many lives might
have been lost and much property de
stroyed.
Early in the oampaign, when it was
said that the Republican managers were
desperate, and that they would not hesi
tate to use any means to secure success,
there were few who believed the state
ment. Does not the testimony of Marshal
Wright show that it was true? That the
Republican managers employed a part of
their campaign fund in purchasing arms
and ammunition, and that they found
Federal officials ready to use these arms
and obey their orders, are facts that go a
long way to prove that greater outrages
on the ballot-box were contemplated than
the public suspect.
And yet this party that is now being
proven to have contemplated carrying the
late election by force and fraud is all the
time crying out for a free ballot and a
fair count. It is a good thing that it has
been beaten and that It will soon be out of
power. It had become a dangerous party.
Had it retained possession of the govern
ment a while longer it is probable that
it would never have yielded to the will
of the people expressed at the ballot-box.
It would have attempted to have held on
to tae government at any cost.
Mr. Bayard and the Cabinet.
Mr. Bayard, it is said, is being strongly
urged to remain in the Senate. No one
doubts that if he has not been offered a
placed in the Cabinet already he will be.
1 n fact, there is every reason to think that
he can have his choice ol the Cabinet po
sitions. There are several reasons for re
maining where he is. One is that he has
more experience In Congressional work
than any other Democrat in the Senate,
hiving been a member ot that body
nearly sixt<?en years. He would, of
course, be recognized as the spokesman
of the administration on the floor of Con
gress, and that would be as proud a po
sition as he would occupy if he were in
the Cabinet. It is expected also that Sen
ator Garland will be offered a Cabinet
sltion, and if both he and Bayard should
go into the Cabinet the Demorats would
be deprived of two of their ablest and
most experienced men in the Senate.
There are several Senators on the Re
publican side who have had a
larger Congressional experience than
any of tho Democratic Senators.
They are all men of ability, and will use
their talents and experience in attacking
the administration. The administration
will have need of the services of its ablest
friends in the Senate and House to meet
these attacks. There is another reason
advanced why Mr. Bayard should remain
in the Senate, which is personal. It is
that he can remain in the Senate the re
mainder of his life if desires, and he will
6tand as good, if not a better chance of
reaching the Presidency from that posi
tion than from the Cabinet. Of course
Mr. Bayard will do what he thinks is best
for the interests of his party and tor his
own interests, but there is no doubt that
it is the general wish of the country that
he should become Mr. Cleveland’s chief
adviser. Mr. Cleveland has had
very little experience in national
affairs, and for a time at least he will
need someone close to him in whose
judgment, experience and fidelity he can
place the utmost confidence. Who is
there who could serve him better than
Mr. Bayard? On tho success ot Mr.
Cleveland’s administration will depend
largely the success of the Democratic
party in 18ns. It is important, therefore,
that 31r. Cleveland should surround him
self with advisers who would not be
likely to make grave mistakes.
Deserted by His Friends.
The New York World , which was a
rampant protection paper during the late
campaign, and is yet for all that the
public knows to the contrary, cannot
abandon Democratic principles to such
an extent as to support Mr. Randall’s
proposition to abolish the internal revenue
system. It says: “But when Mr. Randall
proposes to accomplish the reduction of
taxes by abolishing the excise on whisky
we differ from him. and courteously argue
against his proposition in favor of a re
duction which shall lessen the cost of the
necessaries of life to the poor man.”
When the World abandons Mr. Ran
dall it is not easy to discover where he
finds support and sympathy for his
free whisky scheme except among
the Republican protection papers
like the Philadelphia Press and the New
York Tribune. There arc a few Demo
cratic journals in the South that support
his free whisky scheme, but it is notice
able that they haven’t been as belligerent
lately as they were a little while ago.
They begin to realize, perhaps, that the
Southern people are not yet ready to tax
themselves heavily for those things which
are absolutely necessary for their com
fort and for the development of thetr seo
tion, in order that the country may have
free whisky, and certain manufacturers in
the North may continue to enjoy the
benefits of great monopolies. The Re
publican press is speaking of Mr. Ran
dall’s trip in glowing terms. It has good
reason to do so, because the doctrine of
which it is the champion has no better
friend than Mr. Randall. A few of Mr.
Randall’s admirers say that he intends to
make a fight against Mr.* Carlisle
for the Speakership of the next
House. They ought to have more
consideration for him than to make 6uch
a statement. A little inquiry and the ex
ercise of a reasonable amount of judg
ment would show them that Mr. Randall,
in a contest for the Speakership with Mr.
Carlisle. would not stand as
good chance for success as
he did in the contest a year or more ago.
Mr. Randall must change his views on
the tariff if he wants to be honored by the
Democratic party.
The Russian Nihilists have reason to

Bishop Lyman, of North Carolina, is out

it would never do for the Episcopal courch to
choose its spiritual teachers from among that
class, because of the “ignorance and super
stition” which prevail among them; now the
former declares that in his own State (North
Carolina} he “has found the experiment of
admitting colored men to the ministry a very
encouraging one,” and “most of them are ac
tive, efficient, zealous and loyal church
workers.” “It is a fearful reflection upon
the race," he adds, "to intimate that they
cannot be trained and qualified for tbe gospel
ministry.” He also expresses surprise at
what the Assistant Bishop of Mississippi has
written’ on this subject, “because, with all
the other bishops of the South, he has added

Duck-hunting along the Brandywine has
been fairly good this season. A waggish
young man recently had a goose made of
wood and painted white. As soon as the
paint was dry he took it out at night and
placed it in the Brandywine. It was soon dis
covered by a gunner, who tired at it, appa
rently without the slightest effect. He fired
again and again until a thought struck him.
He suddenly went to see a friend of his, also
considered a good marksman, and with the
most serious of faces enticed him
down to the bridge, pretended to notice
the goose and induced his friend to
shoot. This man, too, fired several shots.
They were not ced by others, who, suspecting
the appearance of an unusual quantity of
game in the neighborhood, took their guns
down to the river and popped away. As one
shooter after another hegau to suspect a sell
somewhere, he pretended to be very inno
cently anxious to kill the goose. The acting
of the dissemblers was so good that some of
tnc best sportsmen were deceived, until the
original perpetrator of the joke, thinking it
was too good to keep, told a friend who had
asked him why there was so much firing on
the river bank. The single expression “wild
goose” suffices just now to make the average
Coateeville sportsman mad as a hornet.

Rice and the Spanish Treaty.
Editor Morning yews: Will not the
proposition stated in the News ot Dec. 21
that the Spanish treaty would open a near
market for the export of rice from this
country be found to be, upon examination,
purely an illusion? 1 beg to submit the
following endeavor to demonstrate this:
Like most of the advantages promised
to the United States by that treaty—with
which to offset the unquestionable"bounty
of twenty-five or more millions of dollars
annually from us to the sugar growers of
Cuba and Porto Rico—this export trade in
rice is on its face problematical. In
reality, it is less than “the baseless fabric
of a vi-ion,” and one of those deceptions
which seem to be essential parts of all
such schemes wherein our own proper
questions of revenue are made the sub
jects of “dicker” with foreign powers.
Why is there now absolutely no export
trade from this country to any other
country in rice, whether subject to for
eign duty or admitted free? The answer
comes immediately upon making a com
parison of our market prices of home
grown and foreign rice. The last New
York quotations are:
Home Grown—
Carolina and Louisiana, common to
prime, per pound 4^@6o.
Carolina and Louisiana, choice 6‘. s @ojsC.
Foreign —
Rangoon, duty paid, per pound ..
Paths, duty paid
Java, duty paid
The truth is, we are far from producing
an overplus of this staple for export. AU
we grow finds its best market at home,
where it is protected by a duty
per pound, which at the same time
admits enough of coolie-grown rice to
make up ia lacking in our home
supply. Last year we imported "9,737,409
pounds of foreign rice, of which 14,774.348
pounds, or nearly one-fifth, came free of
duty from the Hawaiian Islands.
But to form an idea of the position our
Southern rice would occupy in the Cuban
market under tne Spanish treaty, take
the la9t navana quotations of the coolie,
grown rice, viz 1
Rangoon rials per arrobe, equal to
3 Pvr pound, duty paid.
Patna iu(isloJ4 rials per arrobe, equal to 5@
5Uc. per pound, duty paid.
Java not quoted,
Now, with a home value of 4%@6%0.
lor the range of common to choice Caro
lina and Louisiana, how often would a
shipment to the Spanish West Indies be
repeated if one should be made. 1 think
it very plain that not one pound of our
rice would be exported by reason of the
treaty,
The Cuban duty ou rice, which Spain
makes a merit of "surrendering in our fa
vor, is comparatively a light one, being
about one-half a cent per pound on un
clean and seven-eights of a cent per
pound on cleaned. What the customs
administration in Cuba is, may be infer
red from the published account of the
laugh provoked on the occasion of a re
cent explanation of the treaty to an as
sembly of business men in New York,
when the question was asked if it w'as
supposed that every barrel of flour im
ported into (Juba paid full duty? Think
of negotiating a treaty on the basis of a
tariff which is openly laughed at!
No, our rice growers certainly have no
cause to listen to the voice of the recip
rocity treaty maker, charm he others
never so wisely. The Hawaiian treaty
ought to satisfy them, having under its
stimulus of free rice ffom the Sandwich
islands alone increased the rice crop
there 300 per cent, in five and a half years.
The question of renewing that treaty
would seem to interest them rather than
the ratification of the Spanish treaty,
though all such experiments with our
revenue laws are to be depreciated.

Let all Land a Helping Hand.
Savannah, Jan. s .—Editor Morning
yews: We haye read your editorial in
yesterday’s issue of your influential jour
nal In reference to the recent calamity in
Spain, resulting from a succession of
earthquake shocks, covering a large ex
tent of territory, and, as you truthfully
say, the dispatches can give but a poor
idea of the suffering—“the thousands ol
dead, injured and homeless people,” This
suffering,as you justly remark, oommands
the sympathy of the civilized world.
Knowing the generosity and kindness
of heart of the good people ol this com
munity, we ask that you will aid us
in this work of charity by announcing
that we most respectfully solicit and will
receive and forward the kind contribu
tions of the citizens of Savannah in aid of
the sufferers. Respectfully,
I. ROI7.DEFUENI.KB,
The Spanish Consul.

TXT HEN moving into my new Btore I made very extensive purchases, and compliments have
MM been showered upon me from all sides upon my
ELEGANT AND TASTY STOCK.
I presumed that my ftock would have been ample for the Holiday Trade, but I was com
pelled, owing to the appreciation I met with, to make continual additions to mv stock, and
yet my purchases could hardly keep apace with the unprecedented demand. I have now
made arrangements so ample that I can assure my friends and the public that after to-day my
stock will be again as compete in every resiiect as can only be found in the very best houses
in the leading Northern cities. My specialties are DIAMONDS, and the most celebrated and
reliable makes of GOLD WATCHES, and mv FANCY JEWELRY is not wanting in either
taste, design or workmanship. No fancy prices. Every article guaranteed as represented.
My unprecedented success is summed up in these few words. No matter how ignorant one
may be as to the quality or value of Jewelry, he receives honest goods at honest prices.
