"W«- all arh thuh advance gyahd of thuh Gaajah Weekly Pr< s» Association, .-uh, an’ Ihy'if about uh hundred and a half mob of uh connin’ in on thuh mx train sum thuh South. \h reckon you all have got room* nav.il up for our party.”—New York Journal. And a column more of such senseless libel ish fl -nil th. .line source -as an ex ample of dialed writing by a reporter who was stilt to make a story of tht Georgia editor- visit to New York, but who had neither -cnse enough to fulfill his mission properly not dec. my enough to treat their Visitors politely. Hut lne above is not a bad specimen of the avetage Northern writer's attempt at Soulhirn dluh-ct if. indeed, to fail to roll mu. r r r i'* and to dispense with teat nasal twang peculiar to most North < i iiers, can be considered a dialect. It js hut natural that to hear pure English, (i'xci'pt from provincialisms) spoken now and then should make an impression on the average North, tier for the w< Il in <<j .Southern, r does speak the purest English but there is no reason why he should make an ass of himself trying to Imitate it He can’t, and he may as well give it up. We have never yet seen the Northerner who could even slightly ap proximate the musical lingo of the Sunny South. As well expect a Norwegian to give Spanish its proper sound. .We have no complaint to make about the Morthener’s way of expressing himself. He can’t help it and lie Is used to it. so there’s no great harm done. Hut we do object to uuy attempt on their part to "talk like a Southerner," especially If they are going to do it in print and thereby perpetrate rm h Jargon as the above. In the first ■place, it is a base slander on the people of the South; though, when properly con rider. <l. it is but a reflection on the writer, himself, who makis such a mess of an attempt to write pure English. The Southerner who says "Wall” and "Sail” and full” and all that sort of tiling exl.-.ts only in the mind of the uned ucated and untraveled Yankee who at tempts to write Southern {days or depict the Southern dialect in other forms of lit erary abortions. Your Southerner neith er sayn "Sah" nor "Wah,” but neither does iht> say “Ser-re” nor "Wer-r-r;” he sim ply says “Sir” and “War” and all other things as they are written. It Is really a reflection on the intelli gence of Northern newspapers, as well as upon the intelligence of their readers, that meh crude, amateuish, imbecile jargon is offer, d as any sort of dialect. Dialect wilting is an art, and it possesses a charm where tal.nl is displayed; but it grates on the nerves, nans. at. s and offends when such daubers as the fool above quot. t try their hand. Th. re is every probability that Judge John It Estes will uceetd Judge Kimst-y «s Jmic. .f tin No; t he.is-.in ireuit. Judge JCates - he father of Colonel Claude E-t.- of Macon, and like his son. is a u>:tn and » lawyer of superlative qualities. He is well known to many in .Macon, and he lias any number of friends throughout the slate who are working zealously in his behalf What Porto Rico is Worth to Us. Whatever may become of Cuba, it seems practically settled that we are to take Porto Rico and keep it for our own, in which case there is abundant evidence to show that the island will prove of inesti mable importance to this country in a commercial way. to say nothing of the strong strategic position of the island. The Jacksonville Times-Union and Citizen in a carefully prepared and thoughtful ar ticle. brings out a strong array of facts in proof of this statement. It observes that Porto Rico is about 1,200 miles southeast of the southern point of Florida The island's trade with the United States, counting imiiorts and ex ports. amounted to a little less than $4,- 200.000 last year. To show what it ought to be it is only necessary to state that iCuba’s trade with this country, before the war reduced it, averaged near $100,000,000 a year, and one year went above that amount. Porto Rico, though only about one-twelfth as extensive as Cuba, has half as many people, without making any al lowance for the reduction of population in Cuba by the present war. A part of the Union, its trade with the States would be as large per capita as that of Cuba, for. while it would not be so near, the tariff which now discriminates in favor of Spain, would discriminate in favor of America A deflection from the straight line from the coast of Florida to Porto Rico, con tinues the Times-Union and Citizen, which would not lengthen the distance by as much as 100 miles, would skirt the coast of Hayti and San Domingo, together near ly as populous as Cuba, and now trading with the United States to the extent of less than $10,000,000 annually. Being al most surrounded by American territory and American commerce, these two repub lics would become commercially tributary to the I nlted States, if Porto Rico were annexed. So much for the gain on the route from the I. nited States to Porto Rico. It is small in comparison with the promise of trade with the countries beyond. The densely peopled Windward and Leeward Islands, with a population nearly as great as that of Cuba, stretch from Porto Rico to the coast of Venezuela and British Guiana. They trade little with us now. The heavy tide of American commerce that would flow to Porto Rico would flow beyond and carry an Immense volume of American products to the people of the islands, and beyond them to-Venezuela and the Guianas. These countries now trade with us to the extent of about $20.000 000 per annum. Their trade would speedily be doubled by our possession of Porto Rico. Then, with a line of steamships running to Porto Rico and beyond, our trade with the eastern coast of South America would no longer go byway of England and would not go In English ships. We would be commercially, as well as geographically inuch nearer than any of the nations of Europe to the eastern coast ot South America, and our trade with the nations in that quarter, now amounting to little more than $100,000,000 a year, in a total foreign trade of $550,000,000, and nearly all imports, would be vastly increased, and we would sell as well as buy. At present, while we buy nearly half that they export, we sell them little more than one-third of their imports. The Times-Union and Citizen correctly concludes that Porto Rico is the commer cial key to South America, and South America is being rapidly developed. It is already more than half as populous as the United States, and its population is rapid ly increasing. With the building of rail roads its commerce will soon go beyond the biilion-dollar mark. A Frank Statement. Chairman Hanna, of the sound-money currency-reform junta, has taken advan tage of the lull between Santiago and San Juan to insert himself into the situation. He has prepared a staument, addressed l> the business men of the United States, setting forth the results of the work of the .sound money junta during the last session of congress, in which he declares that the present status of the undertaking to se cure a comprehensive currency law is en couraging beyond what was expected. The bill, as finally agreed upon and re ported to the house, he says, has been very generally approved by almost every one supporting the effort to accomplish com prehensive monetary legislation. But, concludes Chairman Hanna, after a long discourse on the subject, "no legis lation can be enacted until both branches of congress are in control of the Republi cans and the sound money’ Democrats.” Truly this is a frank admission. And it is as refreshing as it is frank. This ad mitted coalition between the Republicans and so-called Sound Money Democrats is sufficient to open the eyes of all those who have thought or pretended to think there was anything Democratic but the name left in the Sound Money Democratic organ ization, so-called. Chairman Hanna makes no attempt to disguise the fact. He frankly declares that this should Inspire new hope and unite the business men of the country in an effort to secure, in the November elec tion. not only the continuance of the Con trol by the Republican and ‘sound money' element of the lower house, but to over come the majority In the senate now held by the ’fiat’ money people, and thus make 'sound mom y’ legislation possible." And the Billbynum Democrats of the country, no doubt, chime in with a hearty Amen. ’ It is what they want, it is what they are working for. Notwitstanding their loud-mouthed professions of Demo cratic faith, they are at heart anxious to sic the Republicans in control of both branches of congress. Not all of them will admit it, as Chairman Hanna has done, but it is in them. Chaiiman Hanna's letter is addressed to the business men of the country. It is iddrcssed to the business men of Macon— some of whom have been eager to have the Chamber of Commerce give its endorse "””t to chairman Hanna's plan of cur rency reform. Are they still willing to ai. SU themselves with the movement? If so. they Should at least be frank enough to admit that they hope to see and are working to secure Republican control of both houses of congress. According to cablegrams, iron and steel manufacturers in Berlin, including the Kruppg, are combining to establish a gen eral agency in China for the purpose of ar ranging contracts for railway and public works material, and to be in a better con dition to compete against foreign works. Atlanta Unjustly Criticised. According to the Savannah News many of the Confederate Veterans who attended the Atlanta reunion were greatly disappointed at their treatment. It states that those who had plenty of money had nothing to complain of, but the poor veterans fared badly. Atlanta's hospitality seems to be governed largely by the ability of the guest within its gates to pay the price, thjnks the Morning News. The charge has often been brought that Atlanta displays too much of the “com mercial spirit" on occasions of this kind, but we do not believe the Savannah paper will find anyone who attended the reunion who will agree with it this time. The fact is Atlanta eclipsed all of her former efforts in this direction, and it can be said without flattery that no Southern city has ever excelled her in the treatment of guests. We speak from experience and observation when we say that Atlanta opened wide her gates and her heart to the old veterans, and did everything in her power to make them feel at home and that nothing was too good for them. She fed and housed several thousand of them free of charge and she provided every coa x’. nieiice it 1 comfort for them. She she »evm«l to bo mor. considerate and thoughtful of tlb'ir wcltare in many re specie than any oth. r <ity had ever been. It is quite likely that a good deal of j. alousy enters into these criticisms of At lanta. Atlanta's success has made other Southern cities envious and they never neg lect an opportunity to say unkind things of her. But they are not always deserved. And never more so than in this instance. In addition to the spirit of envy that ev idently influences the Savannah paper in its criticism, the fact has also been ignor ed by the Savannah editor that Atlanta is a large city. and. as is always the case in large cities, too much attention cannot be paid to the individual visitor—especially on occasions like the reunion. It is nec essary for the visitor to shift for himself to a certain extent. It is also true’ that in large cities the number of people who dis play the “commercial spirit” on occasions of great gatherings is greater than in pro vincial towns, like Savannah and Bruns wick, so it follows that there are more nu meous causes for on this score. But this has no bearing on the real busi ness of the occasion; on the efforts of the city’s real representatives to entertain and care for the city's guests. As well criticise the hospitality of one’s host be cause a grasping servant accepts a tip. Be sides, one is expected to pay for something, you know. No, it cannot be justly charged that At lanta failed in her duty to the veterans or to her visitors last week. On the contrary, she performed a feat in the art of enter taining that any Southern city might well feel proud of, and which truly proclaims Atlanta’s greatness and hospitality. And any staements to the contrary are in ex ceeding bad taste —to say the very least. Mr. Bryan is combining business with pleasure. He managed to inject a few’ free silver speeches into the midst of his cam paign.—Savannah Press. Now, listen at that; what’s the use of a man trying to do the right thing? But the average goldbug doesn’t require facts when he wants to make a fling at Bryan. A HUSBAND SAYS; A “ Before my wife began using \ Mother’s Friend she could hardly get around.
