AUGUST 10, 1894.
Democracy’s day o'doom is near
at hand. Globe-Democrat. Who
told you so?
Bill Atkinson will tote hfs own
skillet, and will be the next gov
ernor of the "rent state of Georgia.
The splendid democratic victory
in Alabama has dampened the
spirits of the third party people in
Georgia.
Democrats should now put up
their little knives and get down to
biz. We must have that 75,000 ma
jority this year.
Judge Hines had to call his friend
and co-partner Tom Watson to as
sist him in carrying his skillet
through the campaign.
A raw campaigner, giving report
of progress to his friends a few
days ago, said at one place he held
his audience “hidebound” by his
oratory.
The centennial anniversary of
the successful production of sugar
in Louisiana was celebrated in New
Orleans on the 4th of July. Avery
6weet affair it was.
The cotton seed mills of the south
turned out cotton seed oii worth
$41,000,000 last year, $6,000,000 worth
of oil cake and meal and over $5,-
000,000 worth of other grades of
oil.
Shaver’s Dalton Artrus is a per
fect model of conciseness and {jives
as much to its readers in a given
space as any paper we know. Shaver
is a regular journalistic “brick,” any
way.
A Georgia editor wrote of a poli
tician, th’at lie was a regular “war
horse” in politics, but the printer
made him say “warehouse” and the
politician showed a lack of expec
ted appreciation.
THE STATE DEMOCRATIC CON VENTION.
The state democratic convention
which, assembled in Atlanta the 2d
inst., was the largest and most en
thusiastic meeting held in vears.
Representatives of the party from
every county in the state were
present to assist in naming the
ticket which shall till the state of
fices for the next two years, and
promulgate a platform upon which
every man in the state who has
the interest of good government at
heart can stand with both feet.
The hosts of tlie party from Dade
to Tybee are united Upon the prin
ciples of democracy, which insures
successful and economical admin
istration of the state government,
and the enthusiasm which pervades
the rank and file inspires the pre
diction of eighty thousand majority
at the October election.
The democratic party has heid
the reins of state government since
Bullock ignominiousiy Bed the
state, without one blot upon Its es
cutcheon, and the men who have
successfully combatted republican
ism and every other ism for more
than-a decade are not yet ready
to join the enemy which has used
every means within its power to
overthrow the supremacy of demo
cracy in the south. A vote against
democracy is a vote.for the enemy
under whose oppression the south
has existed for the past thirty years,
and which would have crushed this
section, but for the good home
government established and main
tained by the democratic party.
The republicansof the north have
encouraged every attempt at a
division of the south in whatever
form, and now hope thrybgh the
medium of th third party to enter
a wedge which a ill eventually
break the solid south, hut that
hope is forlorn. The democrats of
Tennessee recently buried beneath
an avalanche ot votes, a coinbin: -
tion of republicans, third party and
prohibitionists, and in Alabama
democracy triumphed agSinst a
combination of everything that
could be brought to hear against it,
including a large slice of republi
can boodle sent from Massachusetts
to buy southern votes.
Georgia will excell both of these }
and the democrats who assembled
in the state convention in Atlanta,
went home with the determination
to roll up for the democratic state
ticket, a majority larger than that
which drove republicanism out of
Georgia.
WAR BETWEEN CHINA AM) JAPAN.
Speaking of the war between
China and Japan, the Chicago Re
cord says:
The possible results of a contest
between these oriental powers are
so numerous and involve such a
variety of far-reaching complica
tions that any accurate conjecture
is out of the question. Japan with
the advantages of better organized
forces and greater celerity in mili
tary maneuvers may well be ex
pected to win the early battles of
the campaign. Superior in educa
tion and in aggressiveness, the
Japanese soldiery may even suc
ceed in driving the opposing forces
before them so long as the treasury
of Tokio will stand the strain of
maintaining war. It is to be re
membered also in this connection
that Japan has never been con
quered, while China has often ex
perienced defeat. But conquest is
not mastery, and the secret of Chi
na’s strength lies in her extraordi
nary resources, which are virtually
limitless and impossible to cut off.
The nation which vanquishes ClrttrS
must first whip her by force of arms
and then defeat iier in a contest of
endurance—a contest which is
practically a test of relative re
sources and power of recovery.
It is in the effort to exhaust these
r souic *s that stronger powers thai
Japan have succumbed, and it is
difficult to see now how the mika
do’s forces could expect to secure a
lasting victory. They might win
every battle, as they virtually did
in an effort to conquer Korea three
centuries ago, but should China see
fit to prolong the struggle her in
exhaustible population would still
be cajiable of supplying fresh sol
diery; her endless resources would
still he open to all demands at the
time when the resources or Japan
would have been sucked dry. The
one department in which the island
kingdom seems to be fully a match
for its neighbor is its navy, but
here, as in its military arm, it
might prevail in pitched battles
without in the least affecting the
final result iff the war.
Whether or not J tpan might re
ceive a i unexpected ally in the
shape of one of those revolts which
occasionally arise among the sub
jugated millions of China and
threaten to dismember the nation
is tqo distant a possibility for con
jecture, but it seems that only in
such upheaval or in the aid of out
side allies could she eflepeet to com
pel China to her will in case of pro
tracted war. It is even possible
that in the unlikely event of China
turning aggressor at a time when
Japan was exhausted from futile
etforts the latter would be forced
to rely upon intervention of the
civilized nations, the sentiment of
which would be decidedly averse
to allowing advanced and civilized
Japan to be struck down by a coun
try like China.
If the events in the orient have*
actually opened the way to a long
war it is with profound interest
that the struggle will be watched
by the entire world. In itself a
combat between these two ancient
powers will be an event of historic
moment, exclusive of the possible
complications. But it cannot be
overlooked that the interests at
stake in many cases overlap or in
directly involve the interests of
several of the strongest of Euro
pean powers, and in these circum
stances a complication affecting
Europe in a much nearer way is
by no means impossible.
The secretary of the United
States- treasury has begun the lib
eral coinage of standard silver dol
lars, and they are now hein j coined
at the rate of SI,(XX), 000 a month.
This rate will be increased as rap
idly as possible, and kept up until
$200,-000,000 in silver bullion now in
the treasury vaults is coined,as
well as $57,000,000 seigniorage. The
silver coined (all except the seign
iorage) win he used to redeem out
standing silver certificates; the
seigniorage(present and acquired in
the coinage of the $200,000,000) will
he used to pay off government em
ployes and meet current expenses.
This coinage will add to the circu
lation $57,000,000 present seignio
race, and $66,666,667 accumulated
seigniorage during the coinage—a
total of $123,066,067 added to the
circulation. The coinage is going
on under the unrepealed clauses of
the Sherman law and proves the
wisdom of the administration in
not repealing all of the law.
The New York Times lias made
a careful estimate of the amount of
protection to the sugar trust afford
ed by the McKinley law, by the
senate tariff bill and by the amend
ment proposed as a basis of agree
ment in the conference committee.
Under the McKinley law the pro
tection given to the trust amounts
to about sixty cents on the hundred
pounds; under the senate bill to
forty-seven and one-half cents, and
under the proposed amendment to
thirty cents. It will he seen that
the senate hill itself makes a con
siderable reduction and that the
amendment reduces the trust pro
tection one 4 half.

The Third Party.
The following opinion of Robert
Ingersoll on the third party is in
teresting reading: “It has no fu
ture. It has no foundation. Its
platform is a collection of chimeras
—of exploded theories—remnants
and rags of socialism—the enslave
ment of all by the government, un
der the idea that the government
will support the people. We all
know that the government is a pau
per, that tiie people must support
it, that the people produce and the
government consumes. We do
not want the government to do,
what individuals and corporations
can do. The people would become
children. Ret the government do
those things that the citizen cannot
do—protect us from foreign foes,
enforce honest contracts and keep
the peace. The populist party has
no mission, no reason for existence,
and I think it has about run its
course.”

Nothing in This World
Is so cheap as a newspaper, whether it be
measured by the cost of its production or by its
value to the consumer. We are talking about
an American, metropolitan, daily paper of the
first class like THE CHICAGO RECORD. It's so
cheap and so good you can’t afford in this day
of progress to be without it. There are other
papers possibly as good, but none better, and
none just hhe it. It prints all the real news of
the world—the news you care for —every day,
and prints it in the shortest possible space. You
can read THE CHICAGO RECORD and do a day’s
work too. It is an independent paper and gives
all political news free from the taint of party
bias. In a word—it’s a complete, condensed,
clean, honest family newspaper, and it has the
largest morning circulation in Chicago or the
west — 125,000 to 140,000 a day.
Prof. J. T. Hatfield of the Northwestern
University says: “THE CHICAGO RECORD
comes as near being the idea / daily jour
nal as we are for some time likely to find
on these mortal shores. ”
