The result of yesterday * elections is in no wiw discouraging »o Democrats, al though the election of the Republican state ticket in New York is. of course, a disappointment. A gain of five Democratic congressmen from that state, however, is something of an offset for Roosevelt’s vic tory. The redemption of North Carolina from Republican misrule and negro domination is the most encouraging result of the day, and this alone more than compensates for the lots of Van Wyck in New York. Hut the consolidated returns from all over the country are more encouraging still, and clearly point to a Democratic victory in 1900. Reliable authorities claim a Ix-mocratic majority In the House of Representatives as the result of yesterday’s voting, and this is a safe guarantee against further class legislation and Republican extravagance. The best opinion gives the Democrats from ISS to I'.M) members to organize the House of the fifty-sixth con gress. The majority of the opposition will be from 15 to 20 over the. Republicans, and perhaps more. \dvicir received by 'Chairman Kerr, of the Democratic Congressional Committee, indicate gains in the following states: Alabama—Fourth and seventh districts. Illinois—Third, fourth, fifth, fourteenth, fifteenth and seventeenth. lowa—Sixth. Kentucky—Fifth, eighth, ninth. Massa chus< its Tenth. Missouri —Eleventh and twelfth. New Jersey—'Fourth and seventh. New York —Second, fifth, sixth, eighth, thirteenth, fourteenth, sixteenth and twen tieth. Maryland—First- and fourth. North Carolina -First, second, third, fourth, sixth and eighth. Pennsylvania—Eighth, thirteenth, seventeenth, twenty-sixth, twenty-seventh and twenty-eighth. Vir ginia—Second, third, ninth and tenth. Michigan—Tenth. Everything indicates a net Democratic gain of from thirty-five to forty members even if the Republicans get all they claim in the far Western states. There is every reason, therefore, for rejoicing in the Democratic camp, and wo should go to work at once to profit by the lead already secured and to make the victory of 1900 a sweeping one. Judge Felton on Justices’ Courts. In his charge to the grand jury yester day Judge Felton made some timely and pointed remarks with reference to the jus iice court* of Bibb county, plainly intima ting to the grand jury that some of these courts are not conducted as t.ie law con template*. !• ormer grand juries have given some attention to this matter, but none of them have probed deep enough to bring about the sort of reform that is so urgently need ed in this quarter. it is a notorious fact that some of the justice courts of Bibb county are mere machine* for extorting money from igno rant negroes, and we have no doubt that ■the grand jury will find ample evidence to designate and punish these corrupt Justices should it make an active effort to secure’the facts. Judge Felton made it quite clear that justice courts have no right to settle the criminal cases which may originate in those courts, ami yet it is well known that some of them make a regular practice of doing so; to such an extent, indeed, that it amounts, as Judge Felton says, to act ual blackmail. Negroes who are techni cally guilty of a violation of law are hauled up before some of these courts sind are then allowed to settle the cases against them by the mere payment of the costs. The Justice who pursues such meth ods through ignorance should be removed front office, but the one who makes it a business, as we are firmly convinced some do, should be sent to the penitentiary. We sincerely hope that Judge Felton’s charge to the grand jury on this point will result in a whole reform, for no more glaring evil now afflicts this community. Populist Legislation. The movement started by certain so called “reformers” in the House of Repre sentatives to reduce all salaries and place every state and county office on a “cheap John” basis, is not likely to meet with the endorsement of the broad-minded people of Georgia. It is. in the first place, a narrow policy, and one that would prove unsuccessful and unsatisfactory from the start, should enough votes be secured to put it in oper ation. No sound business man will look to a “reduction of salaries” to make ends meet under the conditions which now pre vail in Georgia. Something more radical, something broader is needed. The few thousand dollars that would be saved to lhe state by such a plan of .petty retrench ment would be but a drop in the 'bucket toward making up a deficit and lowering taxes. It would be much like a man whose expenses are greater than his in come reducing his cigar bill and cutting the salaries of a few employes, instead of going actively to work to increase the revenue. The state has every opportunity to in crease its revenue and there is little op portunity for a just or reasonable reduc-* tion of salaries or even of appropriations. The bill now before the House to create a board of tax assessors in each county seems to us to be the proper remedy for the conditions now existing. Or. at least, it is one of the remedies that should be applied. It is notoriously true that a vast amount of property in Georgia escapes taxation altogether, while not ten per cent of it pays taxes on a fair valuation. If a plan is found by which this property can be made to pay its just share of the public burden, there will be no need for retrench ment, no need to cut salaries and appro priations, but, on the contrary, there will be a surplus in the state treasury. As a business proposition, therefore, It seems to us that the Legislature should first direct its attention to inaugurating a practical plan of this sort. The South's Interest. A feature of the Philippine tra<3e that promises much for Southern manufactur ing interests when the island* wme under control of thi« country u cotton goods, says the Nashville Banner. The quality of these goods used in the Philippine*? is of the coaeer variety, turned out by most of the Southern mills. European countries. Great Britain in the main, have hereto fore been furnishing the Philippines with ■ their supply of cotton goods, but this ought to be changed when the islands be come a portion of the United States. Statistic* compiled frt>m official publi cation* of various countries, in poeseesion of the Bureau of Foreign Commerce at Washington, show the value of exports of cotton good* to the Philippines in 1897 to have been as follows: Great Britain, |l,- 268,087; France, $143,223; Germany, slll,- 028; United State*, $2,164. The general commerce of the Philippine* for 1897 was much less than.it had been in former years, because ot the insurrec tion there which caused serious interfer ence with trade, but these figure* indicate the proportion of cotton goods received from the various countries named. In 1894 the United States exported to the Philip pines cotton goods to the value of $45,761, but this was a mere bagatelle compared to the quantity of such goods that might be sent to supply the wants of 8,000,00* people, whose chief articles of wearing apparel are of cotton manufacture. The stimulating influence of American methods in the Philippines will increase the consumption of all kinds of goods in those islands, and in the course of a de cade th United States should be able to export to that quarter at least $5,000,000 in cotton goods, the most of which would come from the South. (Both Senator Bacon and Congressman Bartlet deserve credit for the establish ment of a weather bureau in Macon; a thing now about accomplished. It will prove of immense benefit to this city and section. Considering the fact that he had no op position the vote polled for Congressman Bartlett yesterday is the highest sort of compliment. Teddy Roosevelt has gotten more out of the recent war than any other man con nected with It. Macon has lost 25,000 bales of cotton this season. Why? O-A.S’Z’OH.XA.. Bean the Kind You Have Always Bought HORN BORING INSECTS. Caterpillar* That Perforate Antler® In Africa, mid Indin. A curious fact which for many years has proved a bone of contention among scientific men has just been decided. Sportsmen and naturalists when hunting In India and Africa have from time to limo had brought under their notice the horns of various species of deer and buffalo which have been more or less perforated by insects. On careful examination it was found that the little creatures which tun neled and made their home in the hard fiber of the horn were the caterpillars or larvm of a moth, belonging to the same family as the common and all too familiar clothes moth. From their diminutive size the moths belonging to this family have received the name of tineidie,. and it. has been observed that they are all more or less given to making their homes in strange places dur ing the larval stage of their existence. The little larva? ot oar old enemy the clothes moth, for instance-, make for them selves protective cylinders out of the cloth they so greedily devour Sometimes these tubes present a very curious appearance owing to their having been enlarged as the insect has grown ami different colored materials used for the new portions of the old case The larvm of another branch of this family deck themselves out with floral. garments, the calyx of the flower of the common mar joram being a very popular dress white others are of a mining disposition and love to excavate elaborate tunnels in the loaves of the honeysuckle Strange as these habits appear, it is yet. more wonderful that, a species of these soft bodied insects should be capable of boring into so hard a substance ns the antlers of a deer During the 450 r5O years that these horn devouring larvm have been un der observation the various stages of their existence have been carefully noted, from the laying of the egg upon the horn by the mother moth to the final appearance of her offspring as perfect male and female insects. The larvm on emerging from the egg bore down into the horn, and when they have eaten their fill and are ready for their chrysalis sleep they tunnel up to the sur face, so that they may have a convenient exit by which to make their escape when the pupal sleep is over and they have be come perfect moths But, although so much of their life his tory was known, there still remained one problem unsolved This kno.tty question was that no one knew for certain whether these larvm attacked tho horns and antlers of the buffalo and deer while tho animals wore alive or only after death After many years of speculation and conflicting opin ionsit has at last been conclusively proved that these insects do infest the horns of living quadrupeds, for the news has jurt come to hand that both tho larvm and chrysalis have been taken from tho horns within an hour of the death of tho animal to which they belonged.—London Mail. Indiana’* “What Is It.” Princeton. Ind., has a little animal un like any other animal known It belongs to T. C. Braselton and was captured in tho northern portion of Mexico, 600 miles from the American lino. Ho is called Pedro, and this is as near classify in gfliini as any ono has been able to come. In consequence of the presence of this little fellow Princeton has become a Mecca for hundreds qf persons inspired with cu riosity to sec Pedro In size he approaches tho minimum growth of the mountain lynx. The color is like the cinnamon bear, dark brown. He has dijrk brown eyes, and his head, ears and feet are in formation exactly like those of a bear His tail is very long and large, and he uses it as no ot her animal has ever been known to utilize a tail Anything that he cannot reach with his hind feet is gained by means of his tai! Pedro’s fur is short and thick and Is now becoming quite soft, although when first captured it was very rough. In his ways Pedro is much like a monkey He likes to be petted and minds his owner very well. When Mr Braselton holds him. Pedro will grasp his owner’s finger In his paw and indicate just where ho wishes to be scratched When he yawns and stretches after sleeping, he runs his tongue out of his mouth fully five inches. —Exchange.

A few years ago the favorite subject with the makers of prophetic fictions was the dangers to be apprehended from the Immense dormant power of China. The easy victory of the Japanese and the-ap paront conversion of China Into anottmr “sick man of the east’’ have now made I these apprehensions seem absurd, but it is by no means certain that the somber cloud against which Europe was warned in tho famous picture Inspired by Em peror William is entirely harmless after all The vast population of China took no real part in the war with Japan and has no Incentive for action in support of tho Mantchoo imperial government, but at some time of European conflict or disor ganization a great Asiatic uprising, elec trified by some common fanaticism, might be a fearful menace to the Aryan race. “The War of the Worlds,” In which In vaders from Mars, projected through space in cylinders, show their ability to reduce the human family to the condition of do mestic fowls, is the most fanciful of all those fictions and has been a good deal derided, yet it is not inconceivable that Borno swift and unlocked for terrestrial peril might be able to destroy our social system through its utter unexpectedness and our undue confidence.—Lippincott’s CASTOR IA For Infants and Children.
