Hascom Myrick, Editor and Manager, THE TIMES PUBLISHING COMPANY, Americus, Ga. Americus, Ga., July 3, 1891. The Tiuks-Recobdeh started the ball agalcst high freight rates, and the Geor gia presa is now pouring hot shot into the railroads. Edward M. Giikex, of Savannah, has failed for $125,000 and a temporary re ceiver has been appointed to take charge of the aSBctts. Over one hundred thou sand dollars Jt the indebtedness Is due to a Now York firm wbo asked for the .appointment of a receiver. Mil. Sol Haas, tho Terminal Traffic Manager wrote the IV. & A. officials that they must join lnm in the unholy alli ance of forcing up coal freights. Having mot tho wisdom of his great progenitor -and namesake Solomon before bis eyes, -and not profiting by tlio oxample of '-31aine, ho failed to say at .the bottom of bis epistle: “Burn this letter.” In tho face of Mr. Haas' denial of having ever written any such letter, the official files in the W. it A. office will furnish some Interesting reai^ng. A Berlin cable to the Philadelphia Inquirer says that a well-informed diplo mat states the Vatican expects to elect as a successor to tho present pope some one who is not an Italian, for the reason that there is no other way in which dis sension among tho cardinals can be quelled. The diplomat further stated that Cardinal Gibbons has by far the best chance of being elected. His fitness for the place is universally admitted, and the attention of tho Vatican is strongly drawn toward him. The Eaglo and Phomix mills of Columbus discontinued its savings bank on tho tilth of last February and premia od to pay lts depositors on the 1st day of July. On Tuesday the depositors called for their money, but wero disap pointed as tho company was unable to pay. Tbo company owes its depositors $800,000 and proposes to issue. stock at eighty cents on tho dollar to all who will accept It and pay the others at some future day. The stringency in the money market is given as the cause of its failure to meet its promises. A discussio.v of the question, whether the alliance of South Carolina should in dorse tho sab-treasury scheme or not, is to take place at Spartanburg Ju'y 22, be tween Gov. Tillman and National Far mers' Alliance lecturer Terrell, and is exciting a groat deal of Interest both in- sido and outside alliance circles. The atate alliance of South Carolina meets at Spartanburg July.21, and after the dis cussion a vote as to whether the sub- treasury scheme shall be approved or not will be taken in secret. Gov, Tillman is by no means hopeful that he will suc ceed Id oQnrtnolng the alllaoce that his view of the sub-treasury scheme is the right one. , THE TBUE INWARDNESS Or IT. A short while ago, a delegation of Georgia farmers waited on a very promi nent oapitalist, who was likewise a bank president, for the purpose of gct’tlng from him some corroboration of their views that there was a dearth of money in the country. Stating their business; the spokesman said: .‘‘Isn't the crying need of the country for more money, the present per capita circulation being wholly in adequate to tlie requirements of busi ness 7” Tlie banker replied: “We have an abundance of money; there is more idle capital in this city than ever before.' “Then why can’t the people get it ?” asked tho farmer. Taking a one thousand dollar bill from the cash drawer the broker said: “Wliat have.you to offer In exchange for this? 1 will givo it to you for 1,000 bushels of wheat.” No one responded. "Thon sell me 1,000 bushels of corn for it.' 1 shako of the lieyul by tlie spokesman. “Well then, let me have 2,000 bushels of oats.” Still no reply. “Can any of you sell me 400 tons Bermuda grass liay?” None of them hail saved any hay "I will buy from any or all of you 13,000 pounds of meat.” Tho offer was not ac cepted. “Well, if you have none of those products for sale that nil success ful and prosperous farmers should al ways raise in abundance to sell, how would you farmersget this 81,000 if there was a billion In our safes'." “Wo wish to borrow it at a reasonable rate of interest and on long time,” said tho spokesman. “On what security?" said tho banker. We each have an abundance of tlie only security that a farmer can offer, bis lands,” roplled tbo seekers after in formation. _ “Well then,” said tlie banker, “the security being ample, suppose I lend yon $1,000 oach secured by mortgages on your lands, at 7 per cent, on twolve months’ time, each of you endorsing for the other, tlicso notes for $1,070 will fall duo a year lienee, and liow much butter able will you be to pay than now ? Your smokehouses and granaries are in the west; and you raiso just cotton enough every year to pay for your sup plies from the west, meagerly support your families, pay for guano and mAles, and at the end of the year you are likely to wind up just whore you started. How can you ever get tlie $1,000 ahead with which to pay tills loan? Yon can’t do it, and I shall have to sell you out to got my money back. “That is why you can't get money from the capitalists; and if tho circula tion wero quintupled, you would never GEORGIA'S NEW BISHOP ELECT. The diocesan convention of Georgia which assembled in Macon on Wednes day to elect a successor to the late Bishop John W. Beckwith, had two can didates in nomination, Bishop Tslbot, of Wyoming and Bishop Wingfield, of North Carolina, both being missionary bishops. On the first ballot Bishop Tal bot received all except one vote and bis election was made unanimous. The manner of procedure in electing a bishop who is already In charge of a dio cese is somewhat diifercnt from tlie ele vation of a priest to the bishopric. In this case tlie call must be signed by all the clergy and forwarded to the bishop- elect. Bishop Talbot was notified by tele graph of his election and a com mittee composed of Itov. F. Rees, of Macon, and Rev. W. K. Miller,of Augus ta, was appointed to wait upon him at tho time and place he .-nay elect. This cofcmittce will probably go to Idaho in a few days to notify tlie new Bishop of his election. The lit. Rev. Etbelbert Talbot, mis sionary bishop of Wyoming and Idaho, was born in Fayette, Mo., Oct. fi, 1848. Having reeeivod ids early education at Fayette ho entered Dartmouth, C'oliego Hanover, N. II., in September, 1800, and graduated tliero in 1873. He entered tlie general theological seminary in 1870, and graduated • tliero 1878. He was ordained deacon ill the church of tlie Transfiguration, NeSv York, June _'!l„3S78 by Bishop Robert son, and ordained priest in St. Mary's church, Fayotte, November 4, 1878, by the same prelate. Ho was at ouce made a rector of St. James' church, Macon, Mo., and in 1870 ho opened a parish school in Macoif, which has grown into tho present St. James Military Academy, a flourishing diocesan school for boys. Ho represented the dioceie ot Missouri twice in the general convention, and Aas a rural dean and membor of the stand ing committee. He married Miss Dora Harvey November 5, 1873. Ho was con secrated May 27, 1887, missionary bishop of Wyoming' and Idaho, and received the degree of LL. D. from tho university of Missouri in tlie samo year, and that of S. T. D. from the general theological seminary of New York city 1887, and of D D. from Dartmouth in 1888. Thebe Is' silence In the vicinity of Mr. Pat Calhoun that can be felt juat at this time when his Terminal system is en gaged ' In the pastime of going square book of the statement! and pledges he made the legislative committees hut - summer. If Mr. Calhoun la not engagnd in preparing tome statement that will explain' hit atatns In thia matter, all who have heretofore believed so strongly In hit ability to carry out the pledgee he hat made, will have to lower their eiti- mate of the man a good many degrees. Mr. Calhoun owes it to himself to clear Hi skirts of the iniquitous scheme of Mr. Sol Haas In this coal freight high way robbery. Ozduilv, the condemned murderer, having been thwarted In his scheme of having himself doted into the' lunatic asylum on morphine and whiskey Is now trying to starve himself to death. The sole objeot of the death penalty be ing to remove the convlot from life, it would seem tbst the ends of justice are fully met If he eommlts suicide or If the sheriff break his neck. The Times-Re- cqrdeii. Is In favor of letting all auoh people as Ozburn got themselves out of the world in tho most expeditious man ner. No i attempt should bo made to keep him alive if be prefers to alarm, ae the ends of Justice are fully satis fled when he It dead, whatever be the man ner of bis tab logoff. The outburst sgsinst the prince of Wales Is proof positive that loyalty In tue old tense of tbo word has ceased to exist. The queen Is respected as a woman, but not as the descendant of a line of kings. Tho monarchy rests upon, the fragile basis of the good conduct of the occupant of the throne. Ae a prin ciple It hoe already disappeared. It has become a mere question of expcdl ency whether we shall have a king or do without one. Kingship will last out my time, but H is doomed. Whether Eng land will get on better or: worse f>y be ing a republic, I do not‘Know, but a re public England Is likely to become be fore fifty yarn bare expired.—Lahoo- cbere in London Troth. get a cent unless you bad. some product to give id exchange for it. “Raise everything you cat and wear at home, and lot your truck, chickens eggs butter; mutton, beef, etc., pay for all tho dry goods and luxuries your family uses; tlion your cotton crops of twenty to fifty bales will ho surplus, and you will have money in the bank here witli me, instead of being borrowers; and you will never hear anything moro about “financial stringency,” or “contracted circulation,” or “capital grinding labor,” or “hard times.” “Revolutionize your methods, and the south will flourish like the garden of Eden; and you will be princes Instead of paupers.” THE COLOR LINE. The New South, one of the leading papers of the colored people, and whose editor is a negro, In a recent Issue gave the colored people of the south the fol lowing piece of sound and appropriate a'dvice: “It is a foot that is becoming more and more glaring every day tbst the col or line Is being drawn moro constantly- and persistently by colored than by white people, and that we ai a raco are entirely too ready to attribute orery ill we suffer or disappointment with whioh wo meet to our color. Iu nine cases out of ten the cauto is our own Indlacrc tlon, folly or foolhardiness.'' It may tako the raco a long timo to learn the lesson, but they will have It to learn in the end and correct the evil before It can be cured. If the particular claw of colored people that persist in D. were successfully sat down on, It would not continue much longer. It la a grow, tng evil, and ono that we cannot, as n people, allow to continue Indefinitely. Just about the truth of the matter, and a sound piece of advice that It would bo well for the brother in black to heed. If followed muoh good will accrue to those who honestly labor to advance the material interests of ’ their race. A RAILWAY TENDERFOOT. A prominent official oftheNushvi le, Chat tanooga nnd tit. Louis railroad, on raiding the telegram of Mr. Hoi naan, traffic manage,, of the Richmond and DanvJ Je railroad, that ho *had had no correspondence whatever with the Westerp and Atlantic Railroad company or any other roud looking to an advance of tho rate* on coal from the coal miues to Atlanta nnd other [mints, expressed great surprise at these statements, end re marked with emphasis that Mr. Haas’s memory must certain y be very short, or he was tho victim of the most cleverly executed forgery which lias been* put on paper In many a day.—Nashville Telegram. Now hero is some refreshing freshness this hot weather. A roan well enough up In the affairs of the woild to be a, ^prominent railroad official,” and yet fresh enough to be surprised that an other prominent railroad official, that, too, the wirey Sol Haas, has been guilty of too rigid ecodomy of the truth. A railroad traffic manager actually expected to tell the truth upon eompulsion! Now let the shades of little George Washing* ton light a fresh cigarette and whet up his little hatchet and chip a few notches on the famous cherry tree,’ so thatSol*s memory may be lengthened about this coal business.

This Is the style of legerdemain by which Secretary Foster expects to cover up tho present aching void in- the United States Treasury. He explains that he has “changed the form” bf making up the statements of the conditon of the Treasury. This is a grim price of hu tnor, and stamps “Calico Charley” a9 a rival for Mark Twain or Bill Nye In get ting off fresh jokes. ‘An alliance orator out In Kansas,” says the New York Morning Advertiser, captivated his bearers and captured the eake by declaring that 'there is up more reason why a man should be a re publican because his father was a repub lican than that be should be a bachelor beeauXe his father was a bachelor.’ Yet, when the cheering subsided, this irre futable logic, coolly oonsidsrsd, seemed mote convincing than complimentary." - - - '•••••' . - .... V- . ABUNDANT HONEY. The following from the Macon Eve ning Nows shows how easy it Is to do away with tho financial stringency if somebody would only lead off. The statement that the Macon banks have plenty of money Is most likely cor rect, and is but another evldenoe of the general plethora of money In the finan cial centers of the country: Tbs money stringency continues in Maoon. That 1. lo .ay it i. a very difficult matter to obtain financial accommodation at the broke. Y.l, it is generally believed that the binJc. have plealy of money. The Memphis Appcnl-Avalancbe suggests that it will be remembered that when the method of resuming specie payments was being dlseussed bock in the '70s, some wise man declared that "the only way to resume Is to resume" The country wondered why somebody had not thought of it before. And so It will be with the bunk..
