Mu. Ixoai.i.b of Kansas i« more of tbe
opinion titan ever that It will be Harri
son against Cleveland the next time.
The late unpleasantness In tbe Tnp-
per family in Atlanta has culminated in
what the French would call a coup
d'etat. It Is a hoy.
The annual meeting of the South
Georgia conference ot the Methodist
Episcopal church south will begin nt
Cordole on or about December 1.
A promireet minister of the Episco
pal church is authority for the assertion
that Rev. C. C. Williams, of Augusta,
will be the next bishop of Georgia
Senator IIi.aikiuii.n of Kentucky
fought with Sam Houston at San Jacinto
and the Alamo, and once escaped with
his life by drawing a white bean when
the Mexicans hod selected a detail of
Texans to be shot.
Mrrchanuisino and cotton growing
have reached the limit of ihoir capacity
to support population. Lot's put in
something else. We need smokestacks
in place of counters and shelves.—Cuth
bert Liberal-Enterprise.
The Constitution hints that the Gov
ernor will veto the Whitileid insurance
bill, which provides for breaking up the
insurance pool now in force. Just why
he should veto this bill does not appear,
as the object is certainly a good one.
'Sam Shall is never without some sort
-of sensation. He is now arrested in
Boston for embezzling $1,000 from the
Utah University. As Sam is on a lect
uring tour, who knows but this may be
an advertising dodge on the part of the
cute Samuel?
Comment) no on tlio defeat of the Ber
ner bill, the Tiibune-of-Rome quite coin
cides with Tub Times-Kecoihikk ok to
the uselessness of such legislation:—
“The people of Georgia aro in no danger
of being hurt hy the inllroads so long os
tbe railroad commission is incorrupt
ible.”
Atlanta honors itself in erecting a
statuo of Henry Grady. While alive he
devoted himself and his remarkable en
ergy to the building up of Atlanta, and
succoedod In making it one of the best
known cities of the size in the world.
He loved Atlanta, and devoted hla best
energies to its advancement, and the
. statue is a fitting tribute to hla memory.
Editor Christopher, of Montezuma,
who la now publishing an out-and-out
third party paper, it very mueh outraged
that the Berner-Smith bill was defeated,
and he usea strong language on the ac
tion of tbe Senate. He says: "How
much money did It take to bribe the
Senate and kill the Smith substitute? If
not bribed, every member ot the Senate
who voted against It swore to a lie.
They swore they would enforce the con
stitution, and they failed to do It."
It is reported that Albany Is to have
another dally paper, which will make
Sts appearance between this date and
next Sunday. Tbe name will be the
Albany Dally Herald, which will be
edited by Col. H. M. McIntosh. This la
a bad more, for Albany has nevor sup
ported one paper In decent style, and
two mean ruin for both. Ho city of leu
than 25,000 people ha* ever yet sustained
two dally papers, and It will never be
done until the public becomes vutly
more liberal in patronage than hereto
fore.
THE CHURCH OR THE STATE ?
The pope, in a note to the powers,
says that the recent Parteon disorders
were of extreme importance, and insists
that it Is impossible for both the Italian
government aud the papacy to remain in
Rome.
The establishment of King Victor Im-
mauuel's throne in Rome was in effect
the destruction of the temporal power
of the church; and while a show of inde
pendence lias been maintained, the fact
is that the pope lias for years been a
prisoner, whose power outside spiritual
matters was limited to the iuue of pro-
nunciamentos against the Italian govern
ment for Its usurpation of his authority.
The pope is a statesman of high order,
and no one recognises better than he
that even in Italy tbe doctrine of the
separation of churoh and state is too
strong to be succeufully combatted; and
that if the church is to continue to claim
temporal power, It must be done outside
the seat of government of the king who
disputes the claim.
The question of the removal of the
Holy See from Italy becomes daily one
of more pressing importance; but no sat
isfactory solution seems to he at hand;
for while Spain Is the most thoroughly
Catholic country in tlio world, and lias
expressed a strong desire to have tile
pontitic.il throne established iu her bor
ders, thero is yet so strong a develop
ment of anti-monarchical spirit there
that Spain may not even preserve her
status as a Kingdom many years, much
less yield herantonomy to the temporal
sceptre lit the l’ope.
It is freely predicted that the nine
teenth eehtury will seo Spain a republic
with CaOhlar her president, and under
such coUAitlons there would of course
be no room for papal authority in tem
porary matters.
To the broador-minded Catholics it
looks like the tomporal power of tbe
church would have to go beforo the on
ward march of republicanism; and it is
now a much mooted question whether
the church could not enhance Its spir
itual power by relinquishing altogether
the dogma of temporal authority, which
while potent and even useful In former
ages, can no longer regulate the affairs
of modern constitutional governments.
If tbe Pope would gaiu his consent to
forego the claim of temporal power, and
move the Holy Seo to the United States,
it is believed that one of the strongest
coup d' etats of modern history would
bo enacted; and that church put upon a
higher plane than it has occupied since
Apostolic days. How would Atlanta do
as a location for the Holy Seo?
THE TRAMMELL SUBSTITUTE.
The following Is a correct version of
the now famous Democratic resolution.
Tbe substitute offered by Representative
Trammell to the Sibley resolution which
was designed to force the House of Rep
resentatives to indorse the Ocala plat
form was badly marred iu the first pub
lication of it by the Atlanta papers.
There was a most important omission
in that report, and one which entirely
changed the meaning and intent of the
author of the substitute. In the original
were these words: “and complained of
by the Democratic party.” Tuese words
were omitted in the first publication.
Here is the correct version of the substi
tute:
Resolved by the House or Representa
tives, the Senate concurring. Hint our Hens*
tors and Representatives iu Congress be, and
they are hereby requested to use their Influ
ence and votes to secure legislation which
will correct the evils complained of hy the
National Farmers Alliance and Industrial
Union in convention at Ocala, Fla., and
complained of hy tbe Democratic party, es
peel illy those that relate to the present
financial aud taxation policy of the govern
ment "

RIVKK DRYING UP.
The Mexicans and Americans who re
side in that locality, are very much exer
cised over the drying up of the Rio
Grande River, so that what was ten or
fifteen years ago a steadily llotviug
stream, containing at all times a full
supply of water, has becomo a pimy,
straggling stream of muddy water, or in
places a dry bed of glistening sand.
In New Mexico the river is tapped by
irrigating canals for hundreds of mites,
so that whetf it reaches the Mexican
frontier the greater part of its water has
been withdrawn, aud It becomes a mere
thread winding down the middle of the
channel. The Mexicans are loud in
their complaints of the injury which
they have sustained, and say that their
lands have been made valueless by the
action of the people of Now Mexico,
and thoy claim that they have the best
right to tbe use of tbe river because of
the priority of their settlement in Its
neighborhood.
Tre Federal crop report for October
lodloates that the cotton crop will be
smaller than that of last year, but by
how much It would ba hazardous to pre
diet from existing conditions. The crop
ta late, and the chancea are against a
repetition of the long and favorable
acaaon that made tbe phenomenal yield
of 1800. The country la in an excellent
condition to aland a smaller production
than that of last year, and aa producer!
have been complaining of the very low
prieea they will be well satisfied with a
decreaaed crop.
Tub Atlanta Herald la authority for
the statement that Cept. Evan P. Howell
la certainly in the field aa a candidate
for governor against Gov. Northen, and
cites sa svidenoe of this, not only the
quiet work done with tbe lata legisla
ture, bat the announcement of Clark
Howell'* retirement from politics, and
the lenient attitude of the Confutation
towards tha raoord of the legislator*. It

The way to get rich,” says an editor
whose mind soars beyond the brink of
eternity, “Is to trust nobolly, befriend
none, get all you can and save all you
get; to stint yourself and everything
that belongs to you, and to bo the friend
of no man and have no man for your
friend; to heap interest cent upon cent,
to bo mean, miserable and despised for
some twenty or thirty years, and riches
will como os sure as disease, disappoint
ment and death. And when pretty
neatly enough wealth has been collected
by a disregard of all charities of the
human heart, and at the expense of ev
ery enjoyment, death will finish tho
work—the body is burled, the heirs
danco and fight over what you have left,
and the spirit will go—where? By all
means get rich: It will pay—the devil.”
Tux Ti!bune-of-Rorae Is as outspoken
on ttihdy questions as the Sparta Ish
maeiite. On tbe pension bill in the leg
lslstflfe H says; “That attempt to give
a pension to every Indivldnal Confeder
ate soldier in Georgia waa an outrageous
piece of legislation. It was simply an
attempt on the part of the "93 and a nig
ger” to make amends to tbe people of
Georgia, and especially to the old sol
diers, for the brutal treatment of them
In refusing to accept the Confederate
Soldiers' Home. But U didn’t work.
The bill was killed, and with it tlio men
who turned their backs on Hie Confeder
ate veterans.
To-day Governor Northen will act on
the school bill, so-called, either approv
ing or vetoing it. A veto would mean
an extra session of the legislature, from
which “good Lord, deliver ue!” and an
approval of it may mean the same thing,
as the provisions are so obscure and eon-
llicting that the money for the school
fund may not be available before 1893.

It is a notable feature of Hie late leg
islature that tile conservative element
was the Alliance majority, while the rad
ical branch consisted of a few lawyers
who want to be Alliaucemen and can't,
and a few extremists among the A1U-
ancemon. If Burner, Atkinson and a
few more would-be Ailinnccinen had
been gagged at tho opening of the sess
ion, not a single extreme measure would
liavo gained any headway. Tlio Olive
hill aud the Berner bill, the two most
pernicious and dangerous measures ever
introduced into a Georgia legislature,
were fathered by lawyers; while Tom
Wauon, who is wobbling between an
archy and insanity, is another cx-lawyer.
But for the conservative element among
the farmers, much more harm than was
done, would liavo befallen the state.
The Chattanooga Tradesman in its
review for the wook ending on Saturday
last, reports 02 new industries, 4 new
railroads, 2 extensions, 5 electric car
lines, and 1 streot car line In the south
ern statos during tho woek. The now
industries reported for Georgia are a
foundry aud machine sh«p at Mllledge-
villa; a cotton seed oil mill at Jefferson-
ville; a cotton mill, a sash and blind I

noted for Georgia are an electric light
plant at Rome; an improvement company
at Covington; water work* at Perry; a
railroad from Havennkh to .Smithville; a
railroad extension to Atlanta.
