The redietricting bill, and the
constitution amendments bill,
both failed to become laws.
Schley is still the h6ro of the
battle of Santiago. Dewey knows
what he is talking about, for he
has been there himself.
The Atlanta Constitution says:
“Booker Washington found busi
ness booming in Springfield,
Mass. The hotels were so over
crowded' that be bed to put up at
a hybrid basbery."
• Georgia is the first state to move
in the matter of establishing a
great national park in the south.
The Atlanta Journal says:
“The bill by Mr. Cobb, which
passed the senate this week giv
ing the sanction of the state to
certain grants of land lying Id
northeast Georgia to the United
States for the purpose of provid-
ing a great national park, is the
first step on Georgia’s part toward,
securing for the south a great park
reserve in the Appalachian moun
tains to be known as the "Mc
Kinley National Park and Forest
Reserve.”
“The park will be similar to
the Yellowstone park in Wyom
ing. The hill gives jurisdiction
of the tract of land in Georgia to
the United States, with a concur
rent jurisdiction by the etate of
Georgia for the purpose of county
officers making arrests in civil
cases and criminal cases, as the
needs of justice may demand.”
WILL ADVISE SCHLEY TO FIGHT IT
OUT.
A dispatch from Baltimore
quotes Mr. Raynor, Schley’s
counsel, as follows, on the verdict
of the court of inquiry:
“I would prefer now not to say
anything in connection with the
opinion. I ttink the country will
almost unanimously accept Ad
miral Dewey's judgment. The
testimony was so overwhelming
npon almost every one of the
specifications in favor of Admiral
Sobley, that I must confess I am
utterly at a loss to understand
upon wbat facts or npon the evi
dence of wbat witnesses the other
two members of the court reach
their conclnsion.
“1 am absolutely satisfied that
the opinion of the two judges is at
total variance with the opinion of
the country, and that this will not
by any mtRnp terminate the con -
troversy. I shall advise the ad
miral to fight it to a finish, to
open it by evarv appeal that is
possible, congressional or other
wise. and I believe that the senti
ment of the whole conntry will
opbold M* bl* resolve not to
let the judgment stand.”
TO CONNECT; TWO OONTINENfS.
It is not unlikely that within a
few years one may go from Now
York to Paris or London by rail,
barring a short ferry across
Behrings straits. This feat has
been the dream of many, but it is
likely to prove a reality. With
the completion of the Siberian
railway, and it is rapidly ap
proaching'completion, its termiuns
will be almost within bailing dis
tance of the American continent.
Few have an idea of the extent,
and richness of Alaska, our
farthest removed possessions on
this continent. It is further from
San Francisco, which is regarded
as the jumping off place, to the
northernmost limits of Alaska,
than it is from Maine to the
shores of the Pacific. Many
thought Seward was bnncoed by
Russia when be paid $7,000,000
for Alaska, but it has turned out
to be a sore enough gold brick.
Speaking ot tbs projected line
of railway to Behring’s straite,
the Atlanta Constitution says:
“Denver capitalists have their
plans well under way for the Trans-
Alaskan railway, which will
start at Uiamna lake and extend
to Cape Prince of Wales, where
steamers will connect with the
Praus-Siberian railway. The
entire length of the road will be
850 miles, and it will traverse a
country rich beyond the dreams of
averice. An engineer represent
ing the projectors has just re
turned to Denver and makes a re
port which will arouse new inter
est in the Alaskan gold fields. He
says the country is teeming with
gold, that there are vaat fields of
coal, immense quantities of tim
ber and many indications of oil
Copper is ‘found in chunks.,' one
piece weighing 60 pounds.
“Startingat Cook’s inlet, which
is navigable water, the road will
cross the Nnehgak river, which is
navigable for 600 miles; the
Kusbowim, which is navigable for
650 miles; the Tanana, which Is
navigable for 900 miles, aud the
great Yukon, which is larger in
places than the' Mississippi. It
will be little more than a ferry
ride to cross Bhering strait aud
connect with the Russiau railway.
Prince Hillkop, a cousin of the
i-zar, is the bead of the Siberian,
railway, and is a personal frieud
of J. J. Frey, president of the
rrans.Alaskan. It is expected
that both railroads will be com
pleted within five years.
“Mr. Joseph T. Cornfied, who
built the White Pass road, aaye
the Trans-Alaskan will boa great
money maker. The White Pass
road paid 60 per cent dividend
last year.
“Tbe construction of this rail
way will meaD the taking out of
many millions more of Alaskan,
gold. Undoubtedly there are
vast quantities of it there. This
will add to the wealth of tbe
world and help to keep np tbe
good times, which are due in a
great measure to tbe gold finds of
recent years. It means a more
systematic search for the precious
metal than has yet been under
taken. Tbe completion of the
road will pot Uncle Sam in very
close toncb with bia next door
neighbor, tbe Czar.”
Will the supreme court declare
it constitutional to pay the inter
est on tbe public debt, with the
public property fnndf Tbe school
teachers and many others are
deeply interested in tbe question.
When the question was np before,
investigating tbe paying of
school teachers, tbe supreme court
said:
“We have not undertaken to de
termine whether .any portion of
tbe public property fnnd can be
lawfully applied to tbe payment
of tbe interest on tbe pnblie debt,
or whether the fund mast he ap
propriated only in tbe payment
of the principal.”
