Let it Come.
The Constitution takes a hopeful
vietv of the proposed enforcement of
a federal election law. It says:
A federal election law in its worst
possible shape will not be worth the
paper it is on. During the reconstruc
tion period there was a standing arm}
in the south. Our people were poor
and depressed by their defeat. They
had to go to the polls through mobs
of howling negroes and armed deputy
marshals, knowing that their ballots
would be tampered with by radical
returning boards, and knowing, too,
that federal soldiers were within call
to arrest or shoot them upon the
slightest pretext. In the face of these
difficulties they organized solidly .pulled
together, and overthrew the carpet
baggers and re-established honest gov
ernment.
What we did twenty years ago we
can much more easily now. The
people of the southern (states are go
ing to manage their own affairs if they
have to devote their entire time and
attention to the business.
Possibly there will be a little trouble
occasionally, But what does it mat
ter ? It will all come right in the long
run, and the war-time policy of the
parly in power will result in the ruin
of its champions. The American peo
ple will not stand an attempt on the
part of the government to forcibly
capture the ballot-box, and it will not
be 1oq4 before every federal outrage
in the south will be as vigorously de
nounced in Maine as in Texas. I.et
the federal election law come—the
republicans may as well be smashed
that way as in any othet way.
King Cotton.
- Everything touching the outlook of
the coming cotton crop, will be
watched with keen interest, by spccu
lators and planters. We take the
following on the present outlook ol
the crop, Irom yesterday's News:
I he reports from planters to factors
arc uniformly good. The upland crop
is prograssing finely. A dry May, as
a rule, has always been the precursor
of a fine crop. Up to May 1 ihe
weather was pretty dry, which, of
course, prevented the appearance of
the cut worm, as it is only rainy or
wet seasons which cause the cut worm
to propagate. There have been no
complaints from this source yet.
There have been Tartly good rains
during this month in Eastern South
eastern and in Central Georgia, but
none too many. As a rule, heavy
rains and the cut worm never bother
the plant much except in the low
lands. A few reports of cut worms in
some sections of Alabama have been
received, but none so far from Geor-
gia.
"Chopping” began May 5, and is
about through with. The stand, for
so early, is reported good, and with
moderately dry weather until June the
plant wiil be in good condition, as
then the appearance of grass will not
be hastened beyond the usual amount,
and will cause no anxiety.
The cool, dry weather up to May 1
did not injure the cotton much—it
rather aided in its growth. The pres
ent weather is not as favorable as the
weather at this time last year, when
one of the best crops ever made was
produced, but there is no cause for
alarm so far.

Who will lead the democrats in the
house, now that Mr. Carlisle has been
transferred to the Senate? Charley
Crisp would make a sale one. He is
a fine parliamentarian, bold and
adroit.
A Great University.
The idea that the government
should endow a great central school at
Washington, does not seem to take,
notwithstanding the fact that Mr.
Edmunds of Vermont fathers the new
scheme. It is to be called “The Uni
versity of the United S'atcs,'’ and is
to be endowed with many millions
This is worse than the Blair measure
for that did contemplate a general
diffusion of millions for the education
of the masses T his is something with
which the government should have
nothing to do. Leave education
where it belongs, to the State. T ne
great ‘-University’' would turn out a
lot of political dudes, to bask in the
atmosphere of greatness in Washing
ton, while the son of the farmer would
have to walk between his plow hanr les
studying the commonest rudiments ot
an education. Let the state give her
children a goed plain education, and
then, those who aspire higher, will be
given a chance in Ihe various high
grade slate institutions, but we want
no government paternalism in the
South. Think o‘ it: If the great
University was in existence now, Reed
would probably be asked to lecture
the young men on parliamentary law,
and McKinly would inculcate republi.
can tariff views among the favored
pupils, who were being educated at
the expense of the toiling millions.
O, no, Mr. Edmunds, excuse us,please.
Bynum's a Bad One.
Byrum's recent bout with Reedhas
brought him into additional promi
nence. The Enquirer-Sun says of
the gallant young Western democratic
congressman:
“Mr. Bynum is a leading young
Democrat in the present Congress,
full of fire, and represents the Indian
apolis district. Ilis courage is un
doubted, and it is related that once
while presiding as Circuit Judge a
lawyer insulted Him. He immediately
left the bench, came upon the floor ot
the court room, soundly thrashed the
lawyer and then, returning to the
bench, resumed the proceedings. He
is not the man to be put down by
Reed or any Republican, and has al
ready been spoken of as Speaker.’
flo Upper Congo for Them.
It is asserted that Stanley is full ot
the idea of solving the race problem
as it presents itself in this country.
He proposes to transport blacks
from the southern states to Central
Africa. He thinks that the soil and
climate of the Upper Congo lorest
country would suit them exactly.
The climate is like that of Arkansas,
and the soil will produce all kinds of
semi-tropical fruits; also wheat, cotton,
sugar and rice. The most important
matter, however, is to induce the
blacks to emigrate.—News.
The highest type of the colored race
is found in the Southern States; and
it is not likely the colored people ol
this country will give up their civiliza
tion for the wilds of Africa.
Hon. H. G. Turner.
Mr. Turner, of Georgia, expressed
his opposition to the so-called "sub-
treasury” scheme in his tariff speech
in the House. Mr. Turner has a very
level head.—Augusta Chronicle.
There are few abler men in congress
than Henry G. Turner. He stands
well to the front among the strongest
men in the democratic party.
