Times iwler, Edltor and Proprieto; Weekly at $i.2S a Year f* 0A-, NOV. 9, 1894 >A, ~ Toccoa is the best city in North East Georgia, and is destined to l>ecomc a city of several thousand inhabitants in thfc next ten years. - Toccoa is situated in one hf the best sections of Georgia. The best health, cheapness of living, good and fruit lands, and in many other ways, llie best pbee to live in the South, without an ex¬ ception. Toccoa wants a cotton factory. is no better site for any kind a factory in Georgia than Toc eoa, Then, too, Toccoa will fur nifth some of the capital for such un enterprise. Wc arc now in hop/ of the leg iriature getting down to their work and the Bacon men to putting in applications for office when new senator takes his seat. ' The 'Constitution throws up its hat and shouts “The pebple win” over the election of Bacon for Sen ator. Wu are not as great a strad¬ dler or politician as the Consti.u* tion, nor have we the reputa v. ■ of leaving behind us 2 reputu cm like the trail of a snake, stm to ba on tiie winning side, and therefore we can’t say Georgia has done the wisest, thing in the world in .electing Demagogue Bacon, who has done nothing we are aware of ‘ i so fit him far the repute, "he people reully- were not “in it” * this election.

I er *. 1 Brazil. AH who are interested in th< ;reat republic of South Americi wtII welcome the evidence nowob ainabie that a peaceable change o Presidents will be effected there the ,veelt after the November elections o be held in this country. There can be no reason for the further ex¬ igence of the apprehensions b) which Brazil has been disturber for a year past, that the Executive, whose term, expires on the 15 th ol November, will make my attempt to retain power by force, or wil nterfere in any way with the suc¬ cession of the man who, in March ast, was chosen as his successor, f here can no longer be any doubl .hat President Peixoto will surren ler his office to President-elect Mo ncs at the time appointed in tlx Constitution. He ha 6 asked f/oij Congress* and has obtained, a large appropriation for the expenses of the inaugural festivities; lie has given orders for. a .grand military review at Rio on the day of the inauguration; he has made all preparations for his desert ire from his official quarters upon Palace square ; and lie has held communi¬ cation with Congress .respecting certain matters of public business which he desires to close up before the end of his term.’ There is no more reason to doubt that Florinno Peixoto will leave office next month, than there is to doubt that Grover Cleveland will do the same thing in sixteen months from now. All friends of Brazil will rejoice in the assurances that we are now able to give, under advices from Rio, concerning the succession to the Presidency. We bear great good will to the republic, which, next to our own, is the most popu¬ lous and powerful this side of the AtlanfttfT'raqd which hits always been 1 n friondVf ours, a better po¬ litical friend than a business custo¬ mer. The apprehension which has ex¬ isted in Brazil that Peixoto would violate the Constitution by refus¬ ing to leave office at the expiration of his term was of great service to the rebel party during the civil war, which lasted into this year. The two rebel Admirals declared as late January that they had information that Peixoto would not permit the ■Presidential election td be held in March; but that election was held under the authority of the man whom they had falsely accused. They then strove to keep up the re¬ bellion by pretending to possess in¬ formation that he had said he would refuse to recognize the val¬ idity of the election when the time came for his departure from office; but there is now satisfactory assu¬ rance that this pretext was as false as the other, and that the terms of the Constitution will be maintain ed by the statesman who had so much to do with the draft¬ ing of that document after the es¬ tablishment of the republic four years ago. Thus, in so far us the rebellion was carried on to prevent the setting up of a permanent dic¬ tatorship, there was no cause for its existence. Peixoto was justified in denying all along that he enter¬ tained th<rdesigns which were im¬ puted to him. It is well for Brazil that Presi¬ dent Peixoto’* rule i« to come to an end so soon. The civil war which lasted through one-half of bia term has left bitter memories behind it, and he w an object of ha¬ tred to a large part of the popula¬ tion. He is thoroughly disliked by the navy, which took the lead j n the revolt against him. He has exercised hi* authority in ways not consistent with republicanism. He ha* interfered with the right* of the State*, more es - of the cialy with thoae u State of Rio Grande do . it Heh y Dr. Moraes. The President-elect, will assume office next month fret from the disadvantages which havt jeen a source of weakness to Presi¬ dent Peixoto. He is a man of hon¬ orable repute, of pacific disposi ;ion, of judicial mind and experi¬ ence, of an excellent name in tht disturbed history of Brazil. Hit issumption of office will very sure¬ ly be promotive of peace, as „ wc .nay infer from the fact that thi malj. bodies of rebels yet in tht .ield have promised to lay dowi their arms as soon as he shall ente: upon the duties of the Presidency. We have; hope for the practical welfare of the Brazilian republic during his time. Hawaii and the Cable; The news from Honolulu is that the Hawaiian Government objects to granting any concession for the projected cable between British Columbia and Australia, on the ground that an existing treaty- wit! the United States stipulates that no grant of land or of special rights shall be made to any other Govern - ment. At first this declaration may seen, to conflict with the*fact that at the Colonial Conference in July Mr. Theodore Davies was present, as a representative of the Honolulu Chamber of Commerce, and pro¬ posed, in behalf of that body, that (lie cable should land at Honolulu. But the real conclusion seems to be that his mission was not sanc¬ tioned by- the Government of Ha¬ waii, and that no proposal of his could bind that Government. Be¬ sides, the mere privilege of landing is quite different from that of a grant of fand to be held as British, and subject only to British control. The resolution adopted by the Ottawa Conference insisted that the cable should be “free from for¬ eign control,” but mentioned no route, while the bids invited by the Dominion Government described eight distinct routes, of which five take in Necker Island and two others Honolulu. Hawaii claims Necker Island as her own, and not long ago formally raised Jier flag there because information had been received of Great Britain’s pur pose to use it as a cable station. Thus it appears that seven out of eight of the routes were to touch somewhere in Hawaii. It may be embarrassing to the British submarine project to leant that Hawaii is averse to making any grant of land to it. With that archipelago,’ the most important midocean station for a cable, it would be strange to leave it out of the enterprise altogether. Pre¬ sumably Hawaii herself would re¬ gret to be passed by, especially sbould there be no prospect of an American cable to Honolulu. But if the news her government’s position is correct, Great Britain will either have to abandon the pro¬ ject of touching at one of these is¬ lands or must accept such a quali find right as will yield no conces sum of territory or involve exclu¬ sive control. * But the point of immediate in¬ terest is the fidelity of Hawaii to her treaty stipulations with the United States, and to the various interests which bind her to u* and wilt dcubtleqs one day make her an Integral part of our Union. It is a fact that the treaty we have with her provides that she stutll make no grant of lands to other countries without the consent of the United Ktwv Harbor, ing treaties of th and Hawaii create ware, special — wy. V-y .;?V ■ i m ler destiny too well to encumber lerself in any,such way:/ She will come into the Union wholly free from foreign control or entangle¬ ments, and perhaps she also counts on having then an American cable r,o her shores, whatever route taken >y the British cable now.
