Gov. Hill has appointed Geu. Roger A.
Pryor Chief Justice of the Supreme Court
of New York. Gen. Pryor is a Virginian,
was a gallant Confederate Brigadier, and
is one of the ablest and most successful
lawyers at the New York bar.
Congressman Crisp, who has been lately
mentioned in connection with the United
Stales Senatorship, will not allow his
name to be used as a candidate. The
State and the country need the Judge just
where he is.
Judge nines is quoted as saying that he
is still being “deluged” with letters urging
him to enter the race for the United States
Senate, but that he lias not yet decide!]
what lie will do. The Judge should not
keep the country in this harrowing sus
pense.
The Americas Recorder rises to say that
“Atlanta furnishes the sensations, Colum
bus and Augusta the cotton goods, Macon
the railroad builders, while Americus—
well Americus furnishes the example of a
great and growing city.”
The Birmingham Age Herald says:
“ he. official census returns give Colnm-
bu Hi., a population of 18,050. This is
an increase of 84.27 per cent, since 1880.
Columbus is one of the leading manufac
turing towns of the South, anJ one of the
most prosperous.”
In his speech at Talbotton last Friday
Moses, the Democratic nominee for Con
gress in this district, in answer to a ques
tion propounded by the West Georgia
News, said that he was not in favor of the
sub -Treasury bill in its present shape, but
wanted something to relieve the farmers.
The meeting of the Board of Trade to
night is a highly important one, and there
should be a full attendance of members.
Those of our business men who have not
yet connected themselves with this insti -
tution should do so at once. It is an im
portant factor in the development of this
city.
A MISTAKEN POLICY.
In a number of counties where the
members elect of the next General Assem
bly, Senators and Representatives, have
expressed their preference for Gov. Gor
don for the United States Senate, and
have been instructed for him by the Dem
ocracy of their districts and counties,
appears that the county Alliances are “in
structing” them to vote against Gordon.
The Enquibeb-Sun, while it has always
appreciated the possibilities for good
the Alliance, as a great organization
farmers, has not been, and is not, one
those who believe that the Alliance is the
Democratic party. The membership
the order is largely made up of Democrats,
but the terms should not be confused in
the public mind. It is not one of the
privileges or prerogatives of the Alliance
to “instruct” Senators and Representa
tives how they shall vote. That is a privi
lege and prerogative of the Democratic
party where the Senators and Representa
tives were party nominees.
To illustrate the matter, take the case
Hon. M. V. Calvin, of Richmond, one
the Representatatives-elect to the Legisla
lure from that county. Before the nomi
nation Mr. Calvin declared himself for
Gordon, and he was pledged for Gordon
in the Democratic primary. In Wednes
day’s election Mr. Calvin doubtless re
ceived the full Alliance vote of the conn
ty. The Richmond county Alliance, how
ever, has “instructed” Mr. Calvin to vote
against Gov. Gordon, and to use his best
endeavors to elect a straightout Alliance
man, and not to support any lawyer for
Senator. Mr. Calvin is in possession of
both the Democratic and Alliance resolu
tions. He declines to be interviewed as to
which he will obey, but says that at the
proper time he hopes to measure squarely
up to his duty in the premises.
As an Allianceman, Mr. Calvin probably
feels the embarrassment of his position,
but as a Democrat he should have no donbt
or hesitancy as to his duty in the premises.
The instructions he bears from his party
are binding and paramonnt, and he cannot
in good faith violate them, and we have no
idea that he will.
What we started out to say was that the
Alliance makes a mistake in assuming to
“instruct” members of the Legislature,
Certainly, upon reflection, they must see
that it is the wrong word to use. The mis
take is greater when they assume to in
struct a member to violate the pledges he
has given the Democratic party. It is to
be regretted that the Alliance has injected
this sort of thing into the Senatorial cam
paign, and we are quite sure that no good
will come from it. It is to be hoped that
they will abandon this policy before carry
ing it further.
The Washington Post relates this inci
dent of a friendly tilt between a Georgia
Congressman and the late Sunset Cox:
“One night during the Fiftieth Congress
the late Sunset Cox had quite a party of
his New York friends and constituents at
the Capitol. He was entertaining them in
the House cloak-room when Mr. Carlton
of Georgia, entered, who sat next to Mr.
Cox on the floor of the House. Carlton
was an artillery captain in the Confeder
ate army, and Mr. Cox always called him
“Old artillerist.”
He called Mr. Carlton over, introduced
him to his friends, and in his usual hu
morous vein, said:
“Gentlemen, this is a great and good
Government of ours, a magnificent and
most generous Government. Just think
of it., here is an old artilerist, who went to
war and shot great big guns at our people
and killed them, and kept trving to kill
them, and now he is permitted to come up
here to Congress and vote and speak and
do just as we do, and above all is permit
ted to sit right by my side.”
“Well, gentlemen,” replied Mr. Carl
ton, “I have no disposition or inclination
whatever to take issue with my friend Mr,
Cox as to the grandeur, the magnanimity
and the forbearance of our Government,
but I fail to see why he should be so en
thusiastic on the subject, or why he should
lay so much stress on my shooting at Yan
kees, for the Lord knows that for four
long years I hunted for him to shoot at.
but I failed to find him.”
With his never failing readiness Mr. Cox
replied: “Sir, I fling back the unjust im
putation, and would have you know, and
all the world kno v, that my brave, heroic
and patriotic bones now lie bleaching upon
the battlefield of Chickamauga.”
Well, then,” said Mr. Carlton, “be
yond a question you are the last man that
should be commenting upon the magna
nimity and generosity of the Government
or those commendable qualities from any
other source, since you have been so un
generous toward and neglectful of the
bones of your brave, heroic and patriotic
substitute.”
At this moment the House met and Mr.
Cox was called to the chair.
The following is from our esteemed con
temporary, the Telegraph, of Macon:
Macon congratulates Columbus on the
handsome showing it made in the census.
It now lias a population of 18,ti50, an in
crease of 84.27 per cent since 1880. The
business outlook for the city was never so
bright as it is now, and its manufacturing
interests are growing rapidly. Columbus
is one of the most solid cities in the South.
Any one capturing a stray ostrich will
confer a favor by returning the bird to its
owner in California. The ostrich farm at
Oceanside was raided recently by a Cali
fornia lion. lie got- into the pen where
sixteen ostriches were kept and scattered
them right and left. The men in charge
scoured the country and secured all but
one, which is still at large. The ostriches
were valued at $1,000 each.
The bachelor editors of the Georgia
press have been inspired with new hope
over the marriage question by the follow
ing assertion made by a lady writer in the
West, and are giving it wide circulation:
“Marriage may be a failure in a few indi
vidual cases, where, for instance, a man
swears everything black and blue on ac
count of a piece of beefsteak or a cup of
coffee; or where a woman opens her mouth
and in the short space of ten seconds make
a man’s life a howling wilderness or sandy
desert because she can’t have every thing
she wants and have it right away. But
marriage as a system is a nickel plated,
anti-monopoly, everlasting success.”
Governor Gordon has promptly denied
any connection with the alleged plot to
.low up Col. Livingston. In an interview
he said :
‘All that I care to say is that the reDort
have ha l’ ^ V'- at the insin «ation that I
auv knoLi a ? ylllln S to do With it, or had
hlnf ° f lt ’ 18 un< iualifiedly false,
iarft W - Ul th0 Unfair met fiods of
I know of ^ aga ‘u St n,fi in tUis campaign,
-m, , n ° Such threatened exposure
In an interview published in the Savan
nah Morning News, Congressman Lester
is positive in his assurance that the Demo
crats will carry the next House.
“I don’t see where people get the idea
that the Democrats are not so sanguine of
success as they were a few weeks back,
he said. “There is every prospect of
Democratic success this fall. The Repub
licans had only three majority at the open
ing of the present Congress. Ohio has
been redistricted, and will give the Demo
crats five more Representatives from that
State, The prospect is that Mr. McKinley
himself will be defeated, as there is now
a large Democratic majority in the district.
Then Maryland has been redistricted and
will give the Democrats two more repre
sentatives from that State. Virginia sent
six Republicans to Congress this term, but
she |wiil not do it again. A number of
Republicans were elected to the present
Congress by very small majorities, and the
probability is that some of them will be
defeated this fall. There is no reason to
donbt that the Democrats will control the
next Congress.”
Col. Lester said that the Democrats will
conduct their campaign upon the old line,
strictly upon the tariff question. It is the
chief issue. They are not expecting any
great gains in the West and Northwest, as
has been sometimes asserted, but will fight
to regain their old territory.
Col. Lester is hearty in his condemna
tion of Speaker Reed’s rulings. The force
bill, he said, which has been laid aside for
the present, is likely to be passed at the
next session.
A New York letter notes the following :
“On the roster of the Astor House a few
days ago was the following: WMr. and
Mrs. Rogers, Chicago.” Few, if any, of
the Southerners then at the hotel recog
nized in Mrs. Rogers a lady who, years
ago, was one of the most widely known
women in Dixie. Mrs. Rogers was for
merly Jessie Crisp, and Jessie Crisp was a
universal favorite among the theatre
goers of the South. Her popularity ex
tended to the southwest, and in the news
papers and social circles she was almost
always affectionately alluded to as ‘Our
Jessie.’ This, stage favorite of other days,
who has almost reached the half centnry
mark, is still the' clever and interesting
woman who reigned over the footlights in
her early life. She is the sister of Con
gressman Crisp, the man whose force even
Speaker Reed recognizes, and the daugh
ter of one of the best known men in Ueor-
gia.” x
THE COTTON MOVEMENT.
The New York Financial and Com
mercial Chronicle of the 4th gives
the following report of the movement of
the cotton crop for the week ending Fri
day evening, the 3rd.
The total receipts have reached 246,938
bales, against 211,522 bales last week, and
171,708 bales the previous week, making
the total receipts since the 1st of Septem
ber, 1890, 833,596 bales, against 718,173
bales for the same period of 1889, show
ing an increase since September 1, 1890,
of 115,223 bales.
The exports for the week reached a
total of 163,976 bales, of which 98,072 were
to Great Britain, 18,932 to France, and
46,972 to the rest of the continent.
The imports into continental ports have
been 5,000 bales.
The figures indicate an increase
of cotton in sight on Friday night of
213,355 bales as compared with
the same date of 1889, an increase of 394,-
625 bales as compared with the corre
sponding date of 1888, and a decrease of
303,114 bales as compared with 1887.
The total receipts from the plantations
since September 1,1890, were 900,067 bales;
in 1889 were 782,490 bales; in 1888 were
676,334 bales.
Although the|receipts at the outports the
past week were 246,938 bales, the actual
movement from plantations was 271,705
bales, the balance going to increase the
stocks at the interior towns. Last year
the receipts from the plantations for the
same week were 282,373 bales, and for
1888 they were 227,304 bales.
It is shown that the increase in the
amount of cotton in sight on Friday night
as compared with 1887-88 is 347,779 bales,
and the loss from 1886-87 reaches 135,388
bales.
The totals show that the old interior
stocks have increased during the week
18,159 bales, and were Friday night 8,693
bales more than the same period last year.
The receipts at the same towns have
been 6,540 bales more than the same
week last year, and since September 1 the
receipts at all the towns are 65,312 bales
more than for the same time in 1889.
Regarding the speculative movement,
the Chronicle says:
The speculation in cotton for future de
livery at this market turned mainly on
weather reports during the first half of
the week under review. Continued rains,
more or less copious, in various parts of
the South, were supplemented by reports
of damage from this cause and from the
cotton being beaten from the bolls in
stormy weather. But on Wednesday the
chief source of strength was the better
market at Liverpool. In the morning
short notices for October delivery came
out in considerable quantities, and in dis
posing of these some weakness was devel-:
oped, followed by a rally after they had
been placed. But this market, unless feel
ing the influence of adverse crop accounts
or strong foreign advices, was dull, droop
ing and unsettled. Thursday Liverpool
reported some advance, with which we
sympathized to an extent. The moderate
crop movement and the low
ering aspect of the weather at
the South were also elements of strength,
but the close was without spirit. Friday,
in the face of stronger reports from Liver
pool and Manchester, our market was
weak at the opening, the depression being
generally attributed to the clear or clear
ing weather at the South; but there was
some recovery in the last hour, on predic
tions of frost at an early date in the North
ern belt. Cotton on the spot was quiet
and unchanged until Wednesday, when
there was an improved business for home
consumption, and Thursday there was a
disposition to hold the better grades for
more money. Friday the market was
quiet at lOfc. for middling uplands.
