FRIDAY... ABRIL 9. 1SS0
Tho students of the University of
Virginia have voted as follows on
the Presidential quostion: Biyard
180, Tilden 26, with a small vote
for Seymour, Field and Grau .
The candidacy of Blaiuc and Ed¬
munds leaves Grant without any
following in New England, notwith¬
standing the fact that lie is put for¬
ward as the especial champion of a
solid North.
The Fusioniats are developing
unexpected strength in the spring
municipal elections, and they claim,
in. their new enthusiasm, that they
will carry Maine iu September by
10,000 majority o.’rr the Republi¬
cans.
It is said by learned men that
Good Friday and Easter this year
fell exactly on the anniversary of
the events they commemorate ; that
it was on the 26th of March
the erucifiction took place,
the 28th witnessed the
tion.
t -•
For the year ending February
29th there was an excess of Ameri¬
can, exports over imports of $212,s
298,963. The balance of trade in
our favor, however, is decreasing
every month. Should the decrease
continue at the present extraordi¬
nary rate there will actually be a
deficit within a very few years.
The New York Herald has inter¬
viewed two more legislatures, with
the following result: Mississippi—
Seymour, 40 ; Haucock, 22 ; Bay¬
ard, 16 ; Tilden, 9 ; Hendricks, 9 ;
Thurman, S, and Grant, 6. Texas
—Bayard, 35 ; Seymour, 34: Han¬
cock, 10 ; Voorhees, 10 ; Hendricks,
5, and Grant, 4.
A special dispatch, to the Chicago
Tribune says that prominent Repub¬
licans at Washington Lave been for
some weeks aware that a movement
is on foot to make a second Repub
lican nomination in case General
Grant is successful at Chicago.
The movement is slid to have al¬
ready made substantial progress
in Massachusetts, Missouri and New
York.
The colored brother from North
Carolina occasioned some disturb¬
ance in the recent elections in In¬
diana. This was probably the re¬
sult of a new rebellion iu the south.
The Indiana democrats—regarding
the matter from the stand-poist of
the worthy editor of the Burlington
Ilawkeye—are undoubtedly making
laborious efforts to re-enslave the un¬
fortunate negroes. Let us all unite
to deprecate such efforts.
Of twelve or fifteen counties in
Iowa who have appointed delegates
to the Chicago Convention, eight
have instructed for Blaine. Of
thirteen counties in Missouri who
have appointed delegates to that
convention seven have been in¬
structed for Grant, one for Blaine,
two presumably for Grant, and
three send mixed delegations. A
call has been issued for conventions
from each Congressional district of
Wisconsin to appoint delegates to
the National Greenback Conven¬
tion. Emory S. Foster, Secretary
of the Anti third Term Committee,
states that he has received assur
ances of co,operation from Iowa,
Michigan, Wisconsin, Minnessota,
Kentucky, Kansas, Illinois, Ohio,
Arkansas and New York.
The Atlanta Constitution
suggests that “wherever there
symptoms of Independentism, the
Democrats should make nomina
tions calculated to harmonize the
party.” That should be the policy
of the Democrats all under circam
stances.

A, correspondent of the Conyers
Examiner has heard that Govern*
or Colquitt will probably be elect
ed a bishop of the M. E. church,
south, at the next general confer¬
ence, and consequently, will retire
from polities. Tha rules that gov¬
ern the general conference are of
such a nature as to greatly interfere
with the probability of this rumor.
Murat Halstead is putting in his
very best work against the third

Grant would be swamped in that

MACON DAILY HERALD
We Lave received the first num¬
ber of the Macon Daily Herald, a
new paper printed in Macon, by
Christian, Sims & Co. It is a good
paper and is published at the low
price of $0.00 per annum. Macon
people ara continually talkiug aoout
needing two papers and they have
now an Opportunity of giving sub'
stantial proof of it. The copy wo
have before us displays unusual
merit and promises to bo interest¬
ing in noting all local news, as well
as keeping up with the general
topics of the day. The coming
campaign, will bo a very interesting
one and our people should keep
posted on political matters.
Tall Yaks*. -Tom Arter (Bridges
Smith) is publishing a book for lit¬
tle folks. Something out of the
usual line of Sunday school litera¬
ture, and being in the stylo boys
like to adopt when by themselves
in the corner of the barn on a wet
day. It will be an interesting vol¬
ume for the boys and we hope re¬
munerative to Bridges. The pub¬
lisher, A. E. Seifert, Macon, wants
an active boy or girl agent in every
town, for the purpose of selling the
book. Applicants for this place
should write at once to the publish¬
er for particulars.
The British Government is de¬
manding satisfaction from the Gov¬
ernment of the Unit'd States for
an outrage committed on two of its
citizens. It seems that some time
in 1879 tiro brothers by the name
of Dows went to Bell county, Texas.
While there they joined a religious
sect known as santificati.mists. This
sect was in bad odor in Bell county,
and the citizens notified the broth¬
ers to leave. They didn’t take the
hint, and so a mob gathered and
gave them an unmerciful beating
They were then sent to the Lunatic
Asylum at Austin as lunatics. The
superintendent of tho institution re¬
fused to receive them on the ground
that they were perfectly sane. Ti e
brothers were British subjects, and
the outrage to which they had boon
subjected coming to the cars of the
British Minist r at Washington,
through a consul at one of the Texan
ports, the British Government de¬
mands satisfaction. An investiga¬
tion of the affair lias been ordered
The chances are that this govern¬
ment will have a nice little bill to
pay.

Another Indian War Threatened.
—Troubles being threatened be¬

James river, Dakota, and a Sioax

Schurz has invited that chief, with
other leaders of his band, to Wash¬

‘Drifting Goose’ claims that the white
settlers have invaded his lands, and

they have since changed their opin¬

All are beginning to see that. He

state in 1876. Tammany has des
dared that under no- circumstances

but will voto for any other demo¬
crat that mry be the nominee of the

over 80,099 votes when he was run -
nin J for governor against Mr.
Tilden s candidate. In case Mr Til
den is nominated and Mr. Kelley
S ets as tittle as 19,009 votes, democ¬
racy will certainly be defeated.
Georgia will not sustain the nomina

be a defeat from the beginning. Mr.

The Cuthbert Appeal says: “If
people complain of ring rule they
have only themselves to blame. By
attending the primary meetings or
elections and making themselves
heard by voice, and better still, by
vote, they can control their own
delegations, and thus take power
from politicians who are working
for their own sotfish purpose. Ring
rule is because of the apathy of
fl* 6 gonSrid voters, for else how can
the few override tho many? We
want good, true men in office, who
will fill their position with ability
ami firmness, and gain reputation
by attending faithfully ami intel
ligently to duty, and not by soek
ing popularity through influences
that do not form a part ot a wise
competent official. If tho people
would act—wo moan the Bubstan
tial closes who have much interest
at stake-—indopondontism would
not be hoard of, murii lews advoea

Mn. Editor.
Your notice of the contemplated
improvements in Fort Valiev read
with pleasure. It is encouraging
to know there is some life in our
little town yet But it would be
far more encouraging, if thd'4v,isi_
ness done in our town and sec
tion. was relieved of the heavy bur¬
den of paying such a high .tribute
to the trade centers or terminal
points of our railroads, which trib¬
ute |is created, and sustained by
the discriminations in the freight
tariffs imposed. Let us have
equal and just rates of freight,
then our town would soou take her
proper rank among the prosperous
business places of our State.
our people would feci encouraged
to , improve •__ their ,, ■ property , m . a ,
stantial manner.
But under the present state of
things, it is useless to expect them
to invest much money in ex
pensive improvements, when om
railroad magnates, by reasons
their discriminations in freight tar¬
iffs, can raise or lower the value of
such improvements 25 to 40
cent., and they powerless to help
themselves. And it would be un¬
wise for them do so.
The system of discriminations in
freights as practiced by our rail¬
road managers, is doing more to
retard improvements in our towns
and villages along our railroads,
than any other one cause. Our
railroad “kings” seem careful to
protect their terminal points, even
if they have to freight goods to
such points at con remunerative
rates, and to care very little about
the towns along their line of roads,
except to rob them by high tariffs,
to make up for this deficiency at
their terminal points. They re¬
mind ns of the vagabond who ex¬
pended all his money in purchas¬
ing a fine pair of boots for his feet,
and a good hat to cover his head,
leaving his body clothed in tatters
and rags.
There is neither reason or justice
in such a policy. By such a sy&
tern we are deprived of mueh of
the advantages of through rate-.,
or no through rates at nil. Trne ■ mi
railroad magnates will,
plication Fery promptly iuraish ns
a through rate, so called, bufa how
is it made up ? by adding a Itigh
.
local rate from Macon to Fort Val
ley. If one of our merchauts de¬
sired a through rate on a car load
of 20.000 lb of bacon from Lou¬
isville to Fort Valley, they would
give him a rate of $162.00 per car,
when S-50 00 of this rate is for
bringing this car from Macon to
Fort Valley, leaving only $112.00
for four other roads which takog
this car the entire length of their
roads being, if equally divided, on¬
ly $28.00 each, when, the S. W.
road receives $50.00 for carrying
the car only 28 miles. In such a
case we think om - railroads could,
with propriety, give our merchants
a deduction, for they do not have
to unload and reload a through
car in Macon. Under the present
system our merchants could have
this car unloaded and then reload¬
ed for Fort Valley without extra
charge. Again, under the present
system, our merchants are deprived
of the benefits of shipments by
the car load. On this bacon they are
charged 25 cents per 100 pounds, if
1,000 pounds or 100,000 pounds
be shipped.
This is not only true in regard
to the bacon from the West, but
the same tribute is extorted from
us in our shipments of cotton to
the coast. We have to pay a high
tariff to Macon just as if the
was there unloaded and re¬
listed and relisted.
When we consider this
tribute is extorted from us,
on imports and exports, it
to be a burden heavy indeed. And
under such a burden, we need
never expect to become a prosper¬
ous and growing town.
Under this state of things, which
we are powerless to remedy, we
witness every year a growing wag
on trade from our section to Ma.
coti, carrying wagons loaded with
merchandise and supplies, that our
merchants should, and would hap
die, but for this onerous tribute
paid in excessive freights, and we
need expect no abatement in this
wagon trade, but a steady annu
al increase, unless wo can, in
y, nr-V-il p nnort p nnrmlh- i,i., ,n,1

ble and jiiBt rates oi fe’ :iglit fur

And wo would not have oar run
roads do our tjjpuuesft at n m re¬
munerative rates, but we should
have fair and just rates with other
points, equal charges for like work,
is all ivo wish.
Some express confidence in our
railroad commissioners effecting
this equality in freights, so much
dosirod. Yet I have more contL
dence in time curing tho evil. I
(•minet believe that our railroad
managers will much longer remain
blinded to the evil complained of till
over our Stale. I hope yet to see
fair and equitable tariff rates of
freight inaugurated by our railroad
magnates.

The World for 1880 .
Democrats everywhere should in¬
the form themselves carefully alike ol
action of their party throughout
tho country and of the movements
ol their Republican opponents. A
failure to do this in 1876 contribut¬
ed greatly to the loss by the Democ¬
racy of the fruits of the victory
fairly won at the polls.
The year 1880 promises to be
one of the most interesting and im¬
portant years of this country. It
will witness a Presideutian election
which may r-sult in le-estabiishing
the Government of this country on
the founders, principle.- of its constitutional

It will be as swift to rebuke what it
regards as infidelity to Democratic
principles or to the honorable laws
of political conflict on the part of
its foe-.. It will uphold no candi¬
date for office wh in it believes to
be unworthy of the support of hon¬

Would, being the organ of no
mau, no clique and no interest, will
present the fullest and fairest pit-t¬
ure it can make of each day’s pass¬
ing history in the city, tho State,
the country and the world. Its
correspondents d in the chief, of life

in all- that it publishes. No man,
however humble, shall ev. r bo per¬

has During the past year The World
seen its daily circulation l ebled
a„d its weekly circulation pushed
far beyond that of any other week

great increase has been won, as The
World believe-, by tiulkftdness,
enterprise, lecting ceaseless activity iu col -

to itself and to its readers in deal

It ts our hope and it will be our en
deavor that these may keep what
