The schools are open and now all the In st. turions of education in this county are at work. The young idea will recommence Its target practice. Poplar street on Sunday.

Saturday next 13 moving day, and the whole* city will be turned upside down. There will be more changes in the busi ness portion of town than ever before. Evsry householder in the city should go to cleaning up for the Carnival. The va cant lots should be cleared of the weeds and th< grass should be taken out of the street car tracks. Senator Bacon has gone over the Elev enth district to help Congressman Brant ley in his campaign. Bacon is the ablest advocate <jt pure and unadulterated De mocracy that we have In Georgia today.— Albany Herald. Brunswick Call: “Preparations for Ma con’s grand Carnival have about been com pleted, ami that It will be the greatest suc cess of the year is assured. Many Bruns wi'kians expect to attend the carnival, which will begin October 11th and last four days. The program as arranged, promises a gala occasion. The Jackson Argus says that Sidney Green, the prepared mustard of the Pike county Journal, who whips the Second dis trict and lands the whole caboodle ot War ren, Jones & Co., of the calaboose as mat ter of past time, has now threatened to give Lieutenant Clark a few thin jerks for an assault which the latter recently made on Editor Sawtell, of Griffin. If Sid tackles him the il.awn of the twentieth century will see wolf signs on the ground. Mlantat made a thousand sandwiches ■with which to lunch the Second regiment, but only 870 men came, the remaining 130 have been put In sold storage for the next occasion that may test her famous hospi tality. Criffin News. Macon made four thousand sandwiches, barbecued seven hundred and fifty pounds of veal, and mutton, fried four hundred chickens, bought seventy-five kegs of beer and made two hundred gallons of coffee, and mad et'wo hundred gallons of coffee for 000 men of the First Georgia regiment, and there was nothing left. Savannah News: “It would probably be well for Major Hanson to go a little slowly Just about this time in the matter of preaching high protection as the leading tenet of Republican faith. There have been some shadings of opinion respecting pro jection on the part of Republican leadens •luring the past month or two, and many influential Republican newspapers are from time to time talking about an ’open door" policy. The war with Spain has to a As. gree unsettled the Republican* in their economic beliefs. Major Hanson is preach ing just such doctrine as he thinks may bring victory to Republicans. Jacksonville Times Union: “The London Chronicle quotes an American iron manu facturer to prove that the Welsh miners are better fed, better housed and better paid than the miners over here. Then, why do we protect the Industry that we may pay ' ae same manufacturers higner prices 1. in they exact from the European con sumer' 1 Our iron ami steel products are driving all others out of the European market; rails are sold in Egypt and India, ind there are many other indications that these 'infant industries’ have outlived the perambulator stage. Is it not time that they Jo something for this country now, that has fed them so long?” The Sjeni.anls are the legitimate descen dants of Don Quixote. They are uncon scious They are always con tributing more thnn their just share to the gayety of nations. Witness the difference in the receptions accorded to Cervera and Toral. The admiral was cheered; the gen eral was hooted. The sea dog got flowers; the land canine got rocks. The orie was hailed as a hero; the other was acclaimed a coward. To the American mind there is nothing in the record of the two men to Justify this laudation of the one and de •pre ation of the other. Cervera’s treat ment of Hobson, of course, aroused the ad miration of the American people. But To ral made a gallant defense of Santiago. He fought to the last, and only surrendered under orders from Madrid. Every newspaper, says the Fourth Estate, is bound to have enemies. Speak ing the truth is often unpleasant to some body. Any newspaper that undertakes a ■work of reform, whether it is moral or so cial reform, is b-xund to arouse antagonism. When, therefore, a newspaper is spoken of as having no enemies, it can at once be ovrltten down as having no influence in the eommuity in which it is published. It should not be concluded, however, that a paper's efficiency in a given locality is commensurate with the number of its ene mies, for. as a rule, the more notorious a paper is, judged from any standpoint, the greater the number of people who are ready to condemn it. Clean, honest jour nalism will always receive the endorsement ot respectable people. The first duty of the modern journal seems peculiarly clear when put in these words by Sir Edward Russell, the editor of the Liverpool Daily Post: "To record pub lic events, and private and personal events so far as they are brought into public sig nificance, and to comment on such events. Thes< moral rights impose positive duties on the conductors of the press. They are responsible for giving to a modern popu lation that knowledge of itself without which a community cannot efficiently gov ern itself according to modern practice. Journalists are bound by usage and by the inherent and essential dictates of duty to pronounce such censures, to administer such advice, to make such suggestions, and to publish such correspondence as will, to the best of their ability, inform and stim ulate the general conscience and prompt and direct efforts, either corrective or con- Mtnwtive, for the public good." Is Wheat Too Cheap? Although the recent large receipt* of wheat at primary markets have subjected prices to about the severest strain that may be encountered during the crop year, the bears at Chicago have been unable to force the December option under 60 cents. Un the contrary, there seems to be an ad vancing tendecy. There is no pronounced bull enthusiasm, but there seems to be a quiet conviction that wheat is sufficiently low, in the light of general conditions. Earlier claims as to wheat supplies the world over have lately been modified. Since the government crop report for September was issued it has been no longer possible to refer to the American yield as "the largest on record.” The Washington au thorities estimated the crop in August at 621,000,000 bushels, but they have cut down the total something less than 600,000,000. The yield of 1891 was 612,000,000. Private statisticians have also reduced their crop figures, but are still expecting a larger yield than the government predicts. It is true that the European importing countries are less dependent than usual in the matter of breadstuff's, as they have fair crop*. But Russian advices indicate that there will be no flood of offerings from the Czar's land this season. Stocks of old wheat were so nearly exhausted in the United States ami elsewhere at harvest that a great deal of grain will be needed to build up the normal surplus which should always be carried. The world's population is grooving. Business is im proving, and money is the most plentiful in years. Wheat at 60 cents in Chicago means 35 to 50 cents in the country, which Is cheap enougih, to say the least. To sum up, there appears to be more reason for an advance in wheat than for a material de cline. The Afternoon Paper. New York Newspaper Maker —Thecourse of the whole war has shown clearly what the general public were beginning to ap preciate, and that is, the value of the evening papers as purveyors of news in comparison with their morning contempo raries. Hardly an important Incident of the war but has found its way to the public first through the afternoon papers, says the Jersey City Journal, and the morning news, despite the fact that it was rewritten, sometimes under the guise of special dispatches, has contained little of fresh interest from that of the night be fore. Since the afternoon papers have had thought and money expended on them, they have shown by their success that the reading public finds more interesting the news in the evening, and more opportunity to read, than does the 'morning reader. The evening newspaper, too, has a longer and more far-reaching life. The morning paper goes from the home to .the office. The evening paper goes from the office to the home. Discarded papers are almost always morning editions. Few evening pa pers were found lying around loose, and yet, unless signs fail, the evening papers in and around New York probably exceed in circulation the morning sheets. Commenting on this subject the Boston ed setheOttporyn,odtsfvdll9The: a-rlngsbm Transcript goes on to say: “The value of the evening newspaper Is not exhausted when it has given the news of the hour, or has helped the business man over .the tedium of travel from his office to his home' Copies are seldom littering the scats of steam or electric cars, as iit is taken to the household for the perusal by the whole family. Os course, the evening is the time when it can be most thoroughly read and discussed. Moreover, so rapid has become every medium of Intelligence from world’s end to world’s end that the evening paper is more favorably circum stanced than its morning contemporaries for keeping pace with .the genuine news of each day. The facilities .for extracting the best es sence of the world’s history for the day, and the world's thought upon passing events have been brought to sudh a high state of development that it is enabled to keep even pace with daily events, furnish ing a brief resume of such morning news as may have been expanded by other sheets beyond real value, and keeping the record clear and unbroVen. When it takes its readers into confi dence it is at a time when the cares and worries of business have been put aside for the day, or if not. it. helps to put them aside and enables the reader to keep in leisurely touch, not only 'with the current news, but with art and literature and those other larger and deeper interests of life for which busy people have small in clination as they are about to plunge into s he work of the day. Protection is Dead. The American Machinist, which has been a staunch protectionist, and which speaks for the machine interests of New England and the North, makes this sig niftetau statement: “We have abundant evidence from nu merous interviews with machinery makers to shoiw that a new light is breaking upon them regarding the effects of our tradi tional position on the tariff question, and we shall be very much surprised if the near future does not see heavy pres.su:*" brought to bear upon congress by the ma chinery interests looking toward action which will equalize these matters; the great growth in our foreign trade within the past two years shows that in many lines our tariff is a dead letter. . The object of a protective tariff is supposed to be the "protection of infant industries;” but when an industry has so far outgrown its swaddling clothes as to be able to com pete successfully wiith foreign in their home markets it is fair to ask what connection the duties have with their original purpose; and when the only effect is to excite retaliation and bring about counter duties abroad, it is certainly hard to see how any one can defend them.” •What is true of the machinery interest is true of practically every other interest. Protection is provincial. It is absurd, when America is daily underselling the world in machinery, iron, various manu factures and many other things that have been placed under th*? protecting wings of the Dingley law. , It is nn encouraging sign to observe that former radical advo cates of high duties are awakening to the truth of the situation. Territorial expansion and our foreign trade development have sounded the death knell of the protection theory. Trade With Europe. Merchandise exports of the UnitcdStates in August. 1898. were thirty-five afid one half million dollars in excess of imports. This is four and one-half million dollars less than the excess of August. 1897. In regard to it. Dun’s Review says: “With less than $4,000,000 paid by specie imports (less specie exports) and after liberal allowance for interest and the like, the country has added more than $23,000.- 000 dollars to its unlinqui-shed demands against* Europe, and $2,600,000 gold has been started this way." This would make Dun's estimate of this Nation's annual debt to Europe about $96,000,000. This annual debt is made up of (1) in terest on bonds and loans; (2) dividends on stocks: (3) rents from real estate; (4) repayments of borrowed or invested money; (5) ocean freights on our imports: (6) money spent abroad by tourists of the United States: (7) undervaluations of im ports. Some good authorities, like, for instance, the New York Financial Chronicle, esti mate the total of the above seven times as a higher figure—somewhere between $130,000,000 and $150,000,000 per annum. But under any reasonable estimateof the country's annual debt abroad, there Is no question that the foreign trade of last and thus far of this year has given the United States a large favorable balance, after payment of annual European charges. Some of this balance has been remitted in resale to United States in vestors and speculators of corporate secu rities originated on this side of the At lantic. This return to us of our securities amounts to extraordinary and enforce en largement of item four above. A considerable part of the favorable balance on the exterior trade of 1897 and thus far of 1898 stands to our credit across iwi POWDER Absolutely Pure the water. This should be called home promptly. The reasons are three: 1. Prompt collections is a good rule, in suring buslnes- safety and creating busi ness opportunity. 2. With call loans at 5 per cent in New York city the money is needed here. 3. Europe cannot spare the money. :i -’nce, to retain gold, European rates of discount will be advanced. Thereupon weak foreign holders of American securi ties w ill ha ■ • to sell. Forced sales will cause low prices. American securities will come home on terms advantageous to the United States. The securities will be r. purchased here, not with money, but with the goods for which Europe owes this country. The net result to the United States, there fore, will be (1) some gold imports, thereby easin- the American money mak ket; (2) th' repurchase of American secu rities on adva* rag ous terms, and (3) that prompt collt Jon and quick settlement of mercantile accounts which is the only safe rule in any mercantile business “With par ties who, as in this case of our European customers, have no better security to offer than commercial credit. The present political, commercial and financial situation in Europe makes spe cially applicable at this time the above considerations. .■ B\ -JAPANESE CURB A ?'■ w ind Complete 1 reatment, consisting of UlT< >Si I URIES, Capsules of Ointment and two Boxes of Oint nent.
