DO NOT SIDETRACK IT.
The effort to sidetrack the tariff
bill with the Bland seigniorage bill
should receive no favor from loyal
democrats in the Senate. Both are
democratic issues but the magnitude
of the former is apparent. Great
unrest has been created by the pro-
lorged agitation ol the question and
the time hes come for a settlement
By all means it should not be side

THE IDBA TAKES.
The suggestion by the Banner of
the name of Andrew J. Cobb in con
nection with the Supreme Court
Judges hip to be filled by the next
Legislature tskes with the press.
Among the handsome notices on this
subject is the following from the
Macon Daily Bee:
“The friends of Andrew J. 0>bb,
of Atlanta, are urging him to allow
his name to be used for a place on
the supreme bench. There is no
better man in Georgia for snch a po
sition. He ia one of the moat schol
arly lawyers in the state, possessed
of a brilliant intellect, and a man
whose Btreog h and parity of char
acter has challenged the admiration
of all his expensive acquaintances
He was for a long time the Dean of
the State University law department
and was the best man that ever held
) the position. He is at present the
general counsel for the Sea Board
Air Line Bystem and Dean of the
Atlanta law School.
political anomaly. He has an old
head on young shoulders—he is in
his 47ih year. He is a peer with a
pedigree that rans back for hun
dreds of years; he was born and bred
in an atmosphere of exolusiveness,
and surrounded always by the nos
bili y; yet he is a democrat. He is
wealthy in his own right, and mar
ried the daughter, the only child, of
the late Baron Meyer de Rothschild,
yet . he has always used his
talents in the interes- of
the “common people.” Immediately
npo- 1 entering the House of Lo d9,
in 1808, he identified himself with
the liberal minority in that chamber,
and at once commanded the Atten
tion and respect of the peers by his
as'uteness and eloquence.
It is claimed by contemporary
writers, who are admirers of the
new premier, that his career his just
fairly begun, and that he may be
expec.ed to attain to as, great
eminence as that reach by Palmers

TOO MUCH SUGAR.
The Senate has too mnch sugar
'interests it stake jnst now to render
a jnst and equitable democratic de
cision on the income tax and tariff re
form features of the Wilson bill. The
sugar is not entirely of that charac
ter grown upon the soil., but in some
instances no doubt has a yellow
color and a metallic ring. We trust
and believe however that the sugar
tres’, the coal trust and all other
trusts will have no effect upon the
United States Senate when it comes
to a final decision on the tariff bill.
THE MASSES DISPLEASED.
The masses of the English and
Irish people are displeased with the
appointment of Lord Roseberry as
the successor of Mr. Gladstone as
premier of Great Brician. They con-
sidei it in an unfavorable light as
Lord Roseberry is too closely allied
to royalty. The result will be a
serious split among the liberal fol
lowing in Great Britian. Lord Rose
berry may do well, bat he will never
measure up to the standaid of his
illustrious predecessor.
COTTON MILLS IN THE SOUTH-
A special dispatch from New York
stated that there were five or six cot
ton'mill owners of Massachusetts
who have determined to move their
plants to the cotton growing sections
of the South, because they have
come to realize that the advantages
of the South for the manufacture of
cotton goods are superior to those of
New Eogland, and that mills when
located here will yield larger profits.
The climate of the Sonth is
adapted to the manufacture of the
very best grades of cotton goods,
and there is an abundance of labor
for the mills, and when it is naid-
ered that cotton is now hauled two
thousand miles to the New Eogland
mills and there manufactured into
goods at a very fair profit it stands
to reason that the profits will be
much greater if the mills are located
within sight of the cotton fields.
This fact has dawned on the Eastern
spinners with considerable force.—

THOSE JOINT DEBATES
General Evans very promptly ac
cepted Mr. Atkinson’s challenge to
canvass the State by joint discussions
’ out it seems that the three friends
appointed by him to con ter with Mr.
Atkinson's friends in regard to the
arrangement of the debates refused
to arrange for more than four de
bates. Mr. Atkinson’s friends wished
a joint canvass for two months, de
bating four or five times a week, du
ring that time, but General Evans’
friends thought snch a programme
would break into the plans of their
favorite and would agree to no such
A thing. However, Athens gets one of
" the joint discussions, the two candi
dates speaking here on the 23d
ijsfaut. Each of the candidates will
be accorded distinguished consid
eration while here.
A TIMELY PROTEST.
The protest of the bar of Macon
f gainst the appointment of Mr.
Marion Irwin to the position of
United States assistant district at
torney is a timely one and calls at
tention to the fact that under a demo,
ocratio) administration the, offices
should be filled by democrats—that
is those offices which have not been
classified under the civil service law.
The protest of the Macon bar is not
against Mr. Irwin as an individual,
but as republican. It may be that he
is well fitted for the duties he is ex
pected to perform, but there are
democrats who could perform them
as well and ,aB satisfactorily, and
tiiey should have the preference.
When the republicans had control
pf the government, they did not ap-
the grand old man.
The retirement of William E.
Gladstone from public life marks an
epoch in the times. As the Savan
nah Press s^ys of him:
“The career of Wm. E. Gladstone
has been a remarkable one. He has
grown from a close conservative, in
heriting and embracing all the pre
judices of his age, to become a lib.
eral of liberals, the champion of
cbnrch disestablishment, of enlarged
suffrage, ot home rule for Ireland
age has made him broader and more
aggressive. He speedily outgrew
the environment of youth. He
never narrow, he never hesitated
when the rights of the people were
concerned. He braved social ostra
cism—sacrificed the friendships of
youth bec&use of his views in behalf
of the people. He never faltered in
his devotion to the liberal cause, and
now, in his old age, with his work
unfinished—-for such a busy career
could never be completed—he sur
renders the seals of office and goes
back to the forests of Hawarden, the
foremost man in all this world.”
LORD ROSEBERRY.
Mr. Gladstone thinks Lord Rose-
berry is one of the brainiest men in
England. E'ght years ago, ip intro
ducing the yonng man as a member
of his cabinet to the liberal party,
Prenrer Gladstone referred to him
as “Thcjpin of the future.” It seems
that the reference contained more
less of an element of prophecy, for
Roseberry has been in the ascend
ancy ever since, and has become to
be looked upon by the liberal party
as the Elisha to the Grand O
Man's Elijah.

THE CONSERVATIVES.
The Senators who have styled
themselves “conservatives” have in
vented a new synonym for the term
“republicans.” A man who cannot
waive selfish interests for the good
of bis entire people deserves no sym
pathy at the hands of his party. The
disgraceful spectacle now presented
in the United States Senate where
several democrats have gone ov*=r to
the enemy and sold out for a mess of
pottage is enough to cause loyal
democrats to get pretty wrathy in
their denunciation. What we need
most just at this period is a number
of statesmen of the old schoo 1 , who
like Clay “would rather be right than
president.” The democracy owes it
to itself to mark the names of those
who desert the Wilson bill at this
critical juncture and disfigure it by
all kinds of amendments of a repub
lican nature. In the fnture all snch
members of the party should be re

that it shall only be operative upon ac

WILL MEET iFmEMPHIS-

tled.
The General Conference of the Meth
odist Episcopal Church, South, will
meet in Memphis in May.
This is & legislative bedy of this
church, and the approaohing session
will have many matters of interest to
come before it.
Among other things to be considered
will be the question of evangelists and
their statas in the Conference. It will
be remembered that at the last session
of the North Georgia Conference at
Gainesville Bishop H&ygood declined to
recognize Rev. Sam Jones as in the
itinerant work, unless he would agree
to take an appointment like hiB breth
ren. To accept of such an appointment
would have required Mr. Jones to give
up his evangelistic work, and tbia~he
deolined to do, and therefore, he with
drew from Ihe Conference and became
a local minister.
The reader will also remember that
Bishop Haygood gave the same direo
tion to Rev. J. B. Culpepper's case in
the South Georgia Conference two
years ago.
This question has been a source of
good deal of trouble in the Southern
Methodist ehnrch and no donbt the
legislative body which meets in Mem
phis will take such action as will
satisfactory to all parties. New regu
lations are certainly needed to settle the
vexed questions concerning evangel
sts.
Rev. W. P. Lovejoy, of this city, is
member of^the General Conference,
The body is composed of an equal num
ber of ministerial and lay delegates. Of
course all the Bishops will be present,
and the great interests of the church
will be reviewed in every department
The services of the General Confer
