Oho of tl o most prominent candidates for
speaker ol tlio next house of represents
tives, thinks the prospects of the Demo
cratic party have not been so good since
1859; that they are almost coriain to
carry lowa and Ohio this full, and to
elect the next president, unless they
make some greit hlut.det during the next
session oi congress.
TIIO platform of the Pennsylvania Re
publicans favors a continuance of pro
tection to home industry; distribution ol
the surplus national revenue among the
States; and redemption of the trade
dollar at 100 cents, uml protests against
emigration, enforced or assisted.
The platform of the low a Orconhaekers
favors the abolition of all banks of issue,
and legal tender treasury notes as the
only paper currency; tin unrestricted
coinage of gold and silver; a graduated
income tax; a forfeiture ol all mourned
grants ol land to corporations; the holding
of all public lauds for actual settlers,
declaring that every man bus a sacred
right to a portion of ll.u soil; an amend
ment to the patent laws to protect in
venters und prevent the formation ol
monopolies; civil service re form; the
elcutiou of president und vice president
by direct vote; revision of the present
tariff in the interest of labor, not ol
monopolies payment of the public debt
as rapidly uh possible, instead of refund
ing it; tho passni-o ol laws regulating
railway and telograpb charges, and the
establishment of n postal telegraph
system.
Senator Heck, of Kentucky, speak
ing of the tariff hill passed by the last
congress, says: “Careful cxuminntion
by committees ol both houses do
vulope.l the miserable jobbery ctn
itraced in the cunning changes of
classification made in the leading
schedules in the interest of protected
monopolies. It showed that eueli
schedule was made up by the men w ho
were personally interested in making
American consumers pay them high
prices, and who sought to prohibit
imports and curtail revenues, in order
to enable them to add the tariff tax to
the price of their home products The
revenues of the country ad the
interest of the great mass of consumers
and tax-payers receive no sort of con
sideration at their hands, and received
even less from the committee on con
ference that finally fastened the
miserable job upon the country.”
A few weeks ngn a box was left at the
house oewapiod by the British legation in
Now York. No letter accompanied it to
tell its contents. Tho occupants of the
house, one niter another, examined the
box und decided that it hud u veiy
suspicious look: that it probably eon
tallied dynamite, amt was intended to
blow them all up. After considerable
negotiation, the box was transferred to
the United States authorities. Asii had
not exploded at the end of two woeks, : t
was decided to open it: hut no one liked
to undertake the job. Finally it was sent
to the navy yard, and carefully sawed
into witli a suw attached to a very long
polo. The saw stopped. Evidently a
wire had been reached, and some oil or
plan must be adopted. Just ns they bad
tied several loug ropes to the box, and
wearied themselves tugging thereat, two
met, rode up in furious haste. A letter
had just been received, stating that lln
box contained a machine for extracting
the juice of sugar cane.
Every man has an inherent right to
buy w here lie etui buy cheaptst. Any
tariff infringes ii|>on tins right. If it
raises the price of what a mail has to
sell as much as of what lie has to buy,
that man has no reason to complain.
If a day’s labor in each of the avoca
tions of life w ill pay for as much ol
the products of other avocations as it
would if there were no tariff, no
injustice is done to any of the pro
duciug classes. If the present tariff
disturbs in any w ay, or in the slightest
degree, .the ratio which formerly
existed between the purchasing power
of different industries, it is unjust, and
should he altered as soon as possible.

Tn llu Sninti uml Mi of Ihjiretniln ■
firm;
Il is the duly of the Executive to
ciiiuiiiunicnto In the General Assembly
from time tn tiuiii uifurtiuithm of the
condition, and suggestions Cor the
government, of them lumonwealtli.
I regret to inform you that the treasury
department of the Unit and States lias
refuod to pay the sum of $26,555,42,
appropriated by Congress in tlio net
upproved March 3, 1883, “to refund to
the gtnte of Georgia certain money
expended by said Stato for tlio common
defense in 1777.’’ The first Comptroller
of tho Treasury hasdecided that this sum
shall he credited on account of what is
claimed to he duo for the quota of direct
taxes, apportioned to the State by tho
Direct Tax Act, of August sth, 1881.
This decision is in my judgment
erroneous; and I have notified the
secretary that the State docs tint acquiesce
in it. If the taxes claimed are due the
obligation is upon the citizen and not
upon tho State, which has never assumed
the payment of the taxes and cannot be
justly charged with them. All proper
moi.tis will he used to secure the payment
of the sum appropriated for tho benefit
of the State.
The various matters submitted in tho
messages of my predecessors in connec
tion with the annual reports of State
officials, arid otherwise, should, and
doubtless will, receive the aomiderati n
their importance demands, [ desire to
supplement them by inviting your
attention to additional subjects of
legislation-
Tho Act. of October lti li, 1879,
provides that “the Governor shall name
and appoint a solvent, chartered bank, of
good stan ling and credit in eueli ol the
following cities of this State: In the
cities of Atlanta, Athens, Augusta,
Columbus, Macon, Savannah, Rome,
Americas, Albany, Ilawkinsvillo, Gaines
ville, Griffin and LnGrange, which shall
ho knewn nod designated ns Stale
Depositories.“ In pursuance of this law
the billowing banks were do donated a
State Depositories, to wit:
“Rank of Rome, Novembet Isth, 1871);
Savings Department Engle uml I‘licnix
Manufacturing Comp ny, Columbus,
November 21st, 1871); Central Georgia
Bank, Macon, November Hit li, 1879;
Griffin Hanking Company, Novembr
2-1 li, 1879; LnOrango Banking and Trust
Company, November24th, lß79;Citi/.- ns'
Rank ol Georgia, Atlanta, November
20' li, 1879; Southern Rank of Georgia,
Savannah, December 21, 1879; Go rgia
Railroad mid Ranking Company, Align tu
December 2d, 1879; Bank of tho
University, Athens, I•-eeinhei Otli, 1879;
am! Hit! Rank 111 Ain- i ieus, March 16th,
1880, each for a term of lour (I) ji nr-/.
The Oiliz ns' Rank ol Georgia and ihc
Rank -f Rome have e-'iiscd to do btishio ",
and the Griffin Ranking Company, on
the 18th day of April, 1881, declined to
receive full her deposits ->t public money:
the oilier bunks nun.ml cuntiriuo to dis
charge the duties assigned them. The
act vmild seem to contemplate further
legislation at the expiration of these
terms. Under this construction the
power of the Executive to appoint
depositories was exhausted in the fore
going exorcise of it. No provi don is
made in terms for subsequent appoint
moots of the .same hunks, or other banks,
pending the term of lour years, or
Mlbsoquont 10 the expiration oftho term.
It. is manifestly unwise to leave a mut'.ci
cfsueh importance to Exoctjtivo ’con
struction. A mistake might involve
consequences of anatuie too serious to he
incurred without necessity.
The act should ho repealed or amended
to conform to the conditions soon to
exist- The policy of providing for the
saloty of the la'gc sums ot money
necessary lo be kept iu the treasury at
certain times in each year to meet the
expenses of the State government and to
pry the public debt, must be 101 l to the
wisdom oftho Legislature if the present
system is to he continued, I respectfully
recommend that the law ho so amended
as to provide for subsequent appoint
ments, under any circumstances which
may require litem. A recent application,
by certain sureties on the bond of a RtuU
Depository to he .relieved from further
liability n the bond, upon tin bank's
giving ether satisfactory sureties, which
it was ready to do, suggests another
amendment. I declined to release the
sureties, for the reason the col, under
which they signed the bond, makes no
provision for such release. The State
could not bo oxpeotod to incur the risk of
a ohauge in the bond, unless the sureties
Ind contracted with reference to plain
provisions for the exeicise of such power
by the Executive in his discretion, an 1
prescribing the mode of release so that,
there might be curtain eotnplbuoo with
the law, involving no danger of litigation.
The law should he explicit on this point,
to the end that the citizen should have
no cause to complain that ho was subjected
unnecessarily to inconvenience, and that
sureties signing such bonds utay under
stand that they are bound, in any event,
until the lank makes lull settlement with
the Treasurer.
An embarrassing question has arisen
iu the taxation of p,rsonul pro; erty of
railroads loo..ted partly io tins State and
partly iu another Slate. I lie realty and
the personalty located in this State must,
of necessity, be taxed iu this State. Rut
much of the potsenal property of suoli
railroads is located iu this, or another
State, only by reason of the rule of law
which fixes the situs of personalty at the
o inietl of th owner; or i.i case of a
1 railroad, wfer- us principal office
is io.'aied. In practice a difficulty
arises, because adjon-ng Staton claim the
riaht to tax such proportion of tho entire
personalty as the number of miles of
railroad located within their limit hears
to the whole number oi miles in both
States. Thin would seetu to ho the rule
of convenience, us well as of justice, and
I recommend its adoption.
The siihjiei of taxation cannot onguge
too much of your attention. Equality
and uniformity are substantially secured,
in theory, under our system. But
experience proves tlut our laws, for
ascertaining the property liable for
taxation, and its value, are defective; hs
aggregate value being largely in excess of
tho annual returns. The amount to ho
raised is regulated by the necessities of
the State, and the rate i govern and by
the amount of property upon which the
levy is made. It is manifest that when a
ettiz m fails to return any part ofi.is
taxable properly, or undervalues wluit
lie does return, lio inflicts a wrong upon
his neighbor who returns all bis taxable
property at its true value, by turning the
rate which tho latter is foroud to pay.
The remedy for this inequality may he
difficult to apply. All systems ol tax
ation are necessarily defective. Ours has
been steadily improving, but the result
continues to lie unsa- isfactory. Some
remedy can be devised by judicious
provisions for assessment, or by otbei
adequate means, to secure ail approach
to uniformity in valuation of the visible
property of the people, as well a-full
returns of all taxable property; and L
invite your earnest attention to the tusk.
It will not increase the burdens ol
taxation. It will distribute thaiu justly,
and rather pinmotc a feeling of snritacticn
among the people, because of I tie lower
rale of taxation thereby made possible.
In view ol the reduction in taxation
already effected by the watchfulness of
the people mil the labors ol your
predecessors, wiiliout impairing the
ufhcicncy of tho State government, you
can afford to give much study to this
problem. We collect from the people ol
Georgia, lor State and county pu poses
annually, less than one dollar and twenty
tivo ecus per capita. Iho Federal
Govcrnmeiii collects Iroui the people ol
the United States annually more than
seven dollars per capita. Contrasting
these amounts with the benefits received,
we have just cause for pride. It is
surprising that so little interest i.- man
ifested in the subject ot Federal taxation
and expenditure.
A column. i interest in. the common
Government should induce the people oi
all tho Stutos to give .lie -ann- attention
to this subject that (hey bestow upon
local systems ol taxation and expenditure.
In no oth-r way can our complex Govern
ment be administer, and h-r the benefit ol
all tin- people.
1 commend to your consideration the
varied interests ol the commonwealth,
which enlightened constituents have

Their temperamental coolness enables

They sit still and calculate while the

I am verging on eighty years, and d3em
it my duty to sutf ’ring humanity to say
that my long life is duo to Brandreih s
Pilis which have been my sole medicine
for half a century. I know the last fort -
three years of my life is owing solely 0
their use. Your Pilis saved me many
times after the best medical skill in
several Biutes had given me up us
hopeless. I have had many converts tn
purgation with Brar dreth s Pills, and
have seen them perform almost miracles
of cure. For children, a few doses have
cored measles, scarlet fever, and whooping
cough. Jn all female troubles and
weakness 1 have never known them to
fail. In adult males L have known them
to cure the worst cases of dyspepsia,
rheumatism, kidney di.-wvifccs, dysentery
and diarr! oh; even dropsy, paralysis
and apoplexy have yielded to a persistent
course of Brandrcth s Pills. In fact I
have found them the true Life K ixir.
