Mr. Buck puts on au extra strut,
as he witnesses the daily humiliation
of the people of Atlanta, who have
business at the post office.
If the people of Atlanta ate the
people we take them to he, they will
give postmaster Lewis a wide social
berth—all to himself.
The country' trill applaud the
course of those members of the Cap
itol City Club, who have given notice
that they will quit it if postmaster
Lewis remains a member. Freeze
him out.
A notice Irom the passenger depart
mentof the E. T. V. & G. R. it. informs
us that Mr. Chas. N. Knight has been
appointed assistant-general passenger
agent of that mad, with headquarters
in Atlanta. Mr. S. H. Hardwick, the
former occupant of the position has
resigned to accept another position.
Phincas T. Barnaul's activity and
energy at this period of his life arc
surprising even to the people who
know him best. He is now in the
80th year of his age, was the editor
of a paper sixty years ago, and is yet
full of novel ideas. During his long
career as a showman, Barnum has al
ways taken care of his health.
Dr. Hammond, in his statement in
regard to his experiments with Dr.
Brown-Sequard’s elixir, says that lie
has, up to this time, tried it on pa
tients without their knowledge of
what it was, hut that lie would in a
day or two try it on a man at his own
request. He quotes Dr. Brown-Se-
quard as saying that “au injection
once a month will suffice to keep a
man twenty or thirty’ years younger
than he really is.”
The St. Paul Globe, of July 31st,
consoles itself: "Only forty-three
months and four days more ot the
Harrison regime.”
That’s an awful time to wait, but we
see no way of shortening it. It will
appear very short to the "ins, 1 ’ but
very long to the "outs,” and the dem
ocrats are the "outs.” They got
caught out last November, but they’ll
“go to the bat again” in March, ’92.
It is believed that the phrase “Paint
ing the town red” originated with a
local ballad describing the effects of
the battle of Oulart Hill, between the
Irish insurgents and the English army,
in 1798, in Ireland.
The hills and skies were painted red
That night with beacon fires,
For Wexford’s sons had well avenged
Their Saxon-slaughtered sires.
Burned in Effigy.
The people of Atlanta have shown
their detestation and scorn of Mr.
Buck and Mr. Postmaster Lewis, by
burning them in effigy. The rag rep
resentations of these two imported
carpet baggers were suspended near
the post office. Buck and,Lewis,
through their radical friends, tried to
get Governor Gordon to interfere.
The Governor told them it was net a
matter for executive interference, but.
that it came under the city’s laws.
The street between the post office
and the old cnpitol was selected for
the ceremony,and at 8 o’clock a dense
mass of people was packed around for
blocks waiting for the illumination.
The crowd was orderly, and in it were
large numbers of the best people of
Atlanta, and on the outskirts ami in
the windows of overlooking buildings
were many ladies, quiet observers of
this redress of the insult put upon one
of their sex.
The Olive Bill.
It is now very generally conceded
that the above bill will not pass. Some
of the wisest an dmost far-seeing states
men in Georgia, do not approve that
kind of legislation. Major Campbell
Wallace has shown, conclusively—and
no man in Georgia has given the sub
ject more profound thought and study,
or who understands it better—that the
railroad commission is ample protec
tion for the people. It is argued, and
reasonably so, that such legislation
will have a tendency to drive capital
out of the state, and discourage the
building of more railroads. The pco-
ple want all the railroads they can get;
for, in a multiplicity of roads, lies the
surest chance of healthy competition.
And this is what the people want. The
railroad commission is a good thing,
but competition is belter. It beats all
the railroad commissions. Every pos
sible encouragement, consistent with
the public good, should be given in
vestors to build roads in Gcorgiajbuild
them wherever needed and wanted
The strong hand of legislation can,
and will, be laid on these roads, if they
should evrr attempt to organize a
monopoly or railroad trust in Georgia
to the detriment of the people. Wc
want one or two more competing sys
tems in Georgia. Let such, legislation
be enacted as will invite foreign capital.
Without that capital new roads cannot
soon be constructed. There are many
sections ot Georgia, to-day, which but
awaits the shrill whistle of the locomo
tive, to bring that prosperity lor which
all await so anxiously. Georgia is
controling her railroads — and she
intends to do so—but in doing so it is
not good policy to enact legislation
which would cripple enterprises
which promises so much for
people and.state. Let the roads be
built, and let those putting their money
in them have every assurance that
capital, as well as labor, will be pro
tected in Georgia. Both are entitled
to it. You cannot cripple the one,
without hurling the other.
The question of building and con
trolling roads, controlling them, not to
cripple or destroy, but to guarantee
fair aDd reasonable rates, to both roads
and people, is one of the grave issues
of the hour. Let the legislature meet
it in the true spirit of the motto of
Georgia: with Wisdom, Justice and
Moderation.
A Whole City Insulted.
It is generally thought that Mr.
Buck is at the bottom of the post
office trouble in Atlanta. An At
lanta republican thus sizes up Buck
and his objects:
Some ol'ii.-Jiavc contenAcil fur rears tlial
Col. Buck ami his crowd did not want a re
publican party in Georgia. In fart it would
not conserve to tlicir purposes. They want
a few white men, most of them northern
men. Then, with the negro politicians,
they can control conventions, keep them
selves at the head of organizations, go to the
national conventions and divide out the of
fices. You see, the fewer white men they
have in the party the better chance these
men have for an appointment, and they are
all office-seekers. That crowd never consult
Georgians about any of their plans; in fact,
they do not want Georgians in the organi
zation unless they will become subservient
to their wishes.”
This co-worker of Buck appears to
have a pretty firm grip on the sit
uation. The people of Atlanta arc
only getting a faint foretaste of what
would follow everywhere in the
South—if the republican party had
full sway and controlled affairs down
South. No wonder the Southern
states are solid, when carpet-baggers
like Buck and Lewis can humiliate
and insult the white women of a
Southern city, containing sixty thous
and people. Lewis is considered the
dirty’ tool of Buck.
How many decent white men in
Georgia, will vote the republican tick
et in 1892, with the Lewis-Buck-
Atlanta post office episode, remcm
bored?

As will be seen by reference to edi

J. Northeu is squarely iu the race for
governor. The announcement is made
with Mr. Northen’s consent and au
thority. He is a strong man, and
has the confidence of the people of
Georgia. The ball has opened.
DuBignon, Livingston and oth

man who passes under the string
ahead of Northen, will need plenty

Atlanta, Ga., Aug. 8.—Popular
indignation over the recent outrage

Stretched between the old capitol
and the postoffice suddently appeared
the dummy figures of Gen. Lewis and
Col. Buck, and a torch set them in

great crowd. About this time a brass

The Lick Telescope.
I'ponMt. Hamilton, twenty-eight
miles from Sail Jose, is fixed the mag
nilieent telescope the late .James Lick
presented to California. It was built
by Alvin Clark, of Massachusetts, and
is said to bo the largest telescope in the
world. The great telescope has a JO-
inch lens, is 00 feet long and 1 feet in
diameter. The lens alone cost 852,000.
A visit to the Lick observatory is now
one of the jaunts the tourist to Califor
nia lays out for himself. The trip is
made by carriages up the Mountain
road from San Jose through a roman
tic and beautiful region. The observ
atory is open to visitors on Saturday
evenings. Although the telescope
weighs seven tons, a child can move
it. The dome in which it is placed
revolves with it. California is justly
very proud of having the finest tele
scope in the United States.
