'IWc Philadelphia Times says that it mty be true of almost everything else in the country, but this weather, so far aa oollara are concerned, there's no Trust In starch. Ta* officials of the Central railroad who visited Ameitcus yesterday should hare stopped In our etty a little longer, and witnessed the improvements going on in the metropolis- of southwest Geor- »•. t; ' Tu* Georgia Press aseoclaUon held a meeting oa the train while passing through Ohio, and passed a resolution appropriating $100 form the treasury of tha association to the Daria monument fund, i -i - Tri alliance brethren of Atlanta should put up their knives, bury the hatchet, and dwell In peace and unity together. No good can come to them from a continuous wrangle among the beiaktebent rights. The Chilian insurgents have appealed to the European powers for recognition te belligerents. The Balmaceda gov ernment has protested, and the powers are considering the question. The situation la a reminder of how much of pestiferous tradition still lin gers in statecraft The insurgents are actually belligerents; why should any neutral government hesitates to recog nize a fact which the Balmaceda govern ment recognizes by lighting with these people? To recognize their beiligerenoy is nut to decide any of the questions *t issue. On the contrary, to refuse such recogni tion Is to decide all these questions against them and Is not genuine neu trality at all. To recognize belligerency Is simply to insist that the war between the insur gents and the Balmacedists shall be con ducted lu civilized fashion; that captives taken shall be treated as prisoners of war and not as felons. To refuse such recognition Is, so far as international public opinion can accomplish that end, to forbid oppressed men anywhere to fight for thefr rights and for liberty. And it is for precisely that purpose that the absurd international laws and customs about the recognition of bellig erency were invented. They were the devices of a king trust, when it was the common interest of king to discourage and pat down ail revolts, righteous or unrighteous. Any people who can make orderly war are belligerents In fact, and, in the Interest alike of human liberty and of ordinary humanity, the legal belligeren cy of every such people should be rec ognized by ail civilized nations quite as a matter of course. M LOVE WITH AN IDEA. If Plato were alive he would Instantly enroll Miss Nina Van Zandt among his scholars. Site lias faithfully followed the old philosopher's teaching and diligently loved an idea all her life. It is not, to be sure, a very lovable idea, being in substance t hat pretty much everybody ought to be knocked in the bead, nor is there much honor in it, with the gallows looming up in the back ground. But It is an idea and Nina has shown that she loves it Anarchist Spies, whom she tuairied as much as slit* could, seeing cuat he could not get out of nor she in the jail, so that the ceremony was pel formed by proxy, she hardly knew, ana marriage under such circumstances was simply a proof of her devotion not to the Anarch ist himself but to liis principles. After the elimination of Spies she wore mourn ing for a long time, not so much for him os for the idea which had suffered in bis person. Now, still out of love of her idea, she weds a tierce, world-devouring Italian socialist—Spies no doubt done in bru nette instead of blond. Perhaps with the aid of this auxiliary the fair Nina may tear up tho temple of the constitu tion from its deep foundations; perhaps, having a real bosband at last, site may learn that tlsa gospel of love is better than the gospel of hate, after all. Bet us hope so. It is better to convert nn anarchist than to hang one. decline at peremptorily as 1888 to eeeape a nomination IB Stab tto gout has not ken Mr Blaina oatof the presl* . u wUl have to «* ; of the republican party i9 H.

Col. A. I. Branham of the Chatta nooga Times, hiid a serious accident while or' bis way from the depot at Chlckamaug* to . the hotel. He was riiling on a wagon which Is used for the purpose of transferring passengers, when one of the axles broke, and he Wasthrpwn under tiro wheels. His left Up was sprained and liis leg was badly bruised. Mr. Brimum suffered greatly from the shock, sad will be disabled for several days His Georgia friends will wish him a speedy recovery. A “BILUON-noLLAK GOU.'TItV.” Secretary Foster’* recent remark, that "tbie is a blllion-dollar country" is accepted by the unthoughtful organs of bis party as a splendid vindication of the lavisbnees of the hilliontdpilar con gress. They insist V)Ah the "growth of the country” readers necessary and therefore justifies this increase In ex penditures. Let vis see. The population of the country just doubled from 1800 to 1800. Hut the expenses of the government during this period Inoroased almost sight-fold—from $83,000,000, or about $2 per head, to $500,000,000^ or $8 per head. To bring the comparison down to more recent periods, as the Indianapolis Sentinel has done, “at the last session of the forty-fourth ooogreea, presided over by Samuel J. Randall, the appropria tions were $144,382,140. At the last sionofthe fifty-first congress, presided overbyCaar Reed, the appropriations were $419,341,143. The increase was 183 perceat. although in tha same time the lacrosse of population has already been only 30 per cent." toother words, the appropriations Increased nearly five times as fast as the population. This may be ‘ a billion dollar conn- try," as Mr. Foster aaya, but the people indicated by more than a million major ity last year that they do not approve of billion dollar congretees. ; ' —— ; .150(1 Every little while we hear that tho Chinese are assailing missionaries and other foreigners and driving them from their towns. These popular movements against foreigners have been confined almost wholly thus far to tha Ysngtse- kiang, and particularly to the ports on that river, wblob, by treaty yvlth China, were long ago declared to be open to the oommero* of the world. According to a recent traveller oa the river, these up risings are fomented by the secret soci sties which the Chinese government Is unable to repress, hut year, by agree ment with-S*gland, China promised to open steamboat navigation u far as Chungking on the upper Tangtae There la little doubt that tbit very foot la at the bottom of the preient troubles, for a large part of the Inhabitants are opposed to granting any concessions which will make their greqt river more accessible to foreign Influences. IKK EXHAUSTED TREASURY. The sews comes from Washington that the- treasury is practically bank rupt- It could not pay the money now du»«n pension accounts without more exhausting all the cash in the treas ury, including the fractional currency, the money deposited In the national banks, and the small balance on hand of the -redemption fund. It -was stated nearly, a year ago tb-atiri Us first session the fifty-first congress had provided for expenditures greatly in excess of he public revenues, and that the treasury would be obliged to meet Us obligations with the reserve. That prediction is now verified. The secretary himself confesses that ho can not pay the maturing bonds, and that he is obliged to rake together every dollar and cent of hts resources to meet hi s current expenses. Thera is ne doubt now that before the end of the next fiscal year tho govern ment will be again a borrower. This is the result of two years of absolute con trol by the republican party. Mr. It. Don McLeod, of Tallahassee, Fla., has purchased the Macon County Citizen at Oglethorpe, and the first issue of the paper under his management shows a decided improvement. Mr. McLeod Is a newspaper man of long ex perience, and will glvo the i>cople of ills zectlon a good paper. W. W. Haskell,-agent of the Wil liamsburg Fire Insurance company, in Atlanta, was shown up Iq a bad light in a suit to recover Insurance lu that city Thursday. At the time of tne fire Has kell had the policy In bis possession for the purpose of making an entry on It, and when requested to return It after the fire, dented knowing anything about It Erldenee was prodqoed in court showing that Haskell was seea with the policy after the fire, and that he put It lu the safe, saying that be would make that much for the Williamsburg. ‘The plaintiff gained tha case. Rx-Headsuax Clarkson must liavo gone abroad for political news of the United States. He writes from Paris to say that "the country is evenly balanced between the political parties just now." Indeed I When wae the balance read justed? In last year’s congressional elections the democratic majority over the republicans was 800,378, and over ell 248,350. The republican party was in a minority by 1,332,202 votes. If this be an even balance what would Mr. Clark- sun call a good majority? The New York World says: Geo. E. P. Alexander, when be surrenders the presidency of the Central of Georgia, win forever retire from railroading. He, baa been a prominent factor In southern roads for the past quarter of * century.
