New York, Atlanta and Athens are
all in the throes o( a water famine.
The Democrat, claim the Assembly in
New York, unless, they say, “trickery
and unfairness prevail."
The moral tone of Pennsylvania lie
publicans aeema to be decidedly of gear.
Quay, Delomater & Co , are factors in
this equation.
Gov, Hill has decided to serve out
tils term as Governor of New York.
This Is better than allowing a crank to
slip into bis shoes.
A “tempest in a teapot” is the way
the papers speak of the Chlllsn muddle.
Affairs have simplified so far that it
means a removal of Egan.
Tub papers are strenuouslyadvocaUng
the recall of Egan on account of his pe
culiarly offensive and indefensible con
duct. But of such is the G. O. P.
Ex-President Haves denies the re
port that ha raises chickens. Possibly
he has also only a hazy recollection of
the time he stole the Executive chair.
New York should afford a object-
lesson for Mr. Harrison. It shows that
Platt will prove a “little old man of the
sea” to him unless ho unloads himself of
this hunk of corruption.
Haukisox thinks the chief end of man
Is to secure a renooiination to office.
Wo are very much afraid, however, that
Mr. Harrison will be affiioted with chill-
Blaines before the dawn of ’02.
LaGrippk has invaded Australia.
Australia has swapped us her “blanket-
suffrage” for LaGrlppe. Between rab
bits and LaGrlppe she seems In a bad
row for stumps.
With the death of Don Piatt, one of
America’s brightest men passed away.
He gave great pleasure to many millions
of people while he lived, if he made no
marked impress on the times, and many
will remember him kindly.
Tub people are thoroughly disgusted
with the tawdry sentimentality In
dulged in by Gen. Palmer about the
display of Confederate flags at the
Grady memorial exercises. Such non
sense deserves no space in the thoughts
of Intelligent men.
Thb New York World has compiled
figures showing that in Iowa Democratic
majorities have varied, while In Massa
chusetts there has been a constant aud
almost Incredible gain for the Democrats
This Is a straw whloh shows how the
wind blows in 1802.

Bob has made a fine political record In
the past and will cover himself with
honor and win praise In any new posi
tion to whloh he may be called,—Macon
Evening News.
Tub bitter war waged against the con-
tinoanoe of Johnston’s history In the
State University will result In the re
moval of tbl* partisan text-book from
the curriculem.. It Is better to abandon
the use of history than to study one
that anathematises the South as a hot
bed of rebellion and the home of traitor*.
Ohio democrats ascribe thelrdefeat to
the jealousy of Campbell on the part of
New York party leaden. Consequently
they ere very bitter about It. They
claim that with any sort of decently
earnest support from the great resource*
of the east they could easily bars won
in the late oontest Nor does that sound
unreasonable.
Nonce has been served by the rail
road commission upon the express com
pants* doing business In Georgia to
fnrnieh Information as to their net earn
ings In this State, together with the
amount of their business, rate* and clas

the provisions of the Atkinson bill,

Oil * CHOI'S AND RUSSIA'S FAMINE.
Tlie report of Commissioner Husk
shows that the agricultural interests of
this country are iu a very satisfactory
condition. If we compare this report
with the famine despatches daily re
ceived from Eastern Europe we find our
selves face to face with a contrast which
is at once startling and pathetic.
The Commissioner very properly con
gratulates the country on tne alluring
prospect which the American farmers
enjoy. Perhaps his estimate of In
creased crop values may need verifica
tion, since l>e declares that the agricul
tural products Id 1801 are worth in the
market about seven hundred millions
over aud above he same products in
1800, but It is evident that the farmer
has good reason for jubilation.
The corn and wheat crops of tho west
have been ns abundant as could be de
sired. Our four million farmers, more
or less, riohly deserve their good for
tune. They have had singularly bad
luck for some time past. What with
drenching rains and parching droughts,
diversified with cyclones aud numerous
forma of cattle disease, they hare had
reason for eomplaint. But it’s a long lane
that has no turning, and they hare
at last had a splendid year. Their
field* have smiled with plenty and na
ture has rewarded them for the long
period of tribulation. They will now be
able to pay off the mortgages whloh
have handicapped them, aud to buy new
stock and to patch up the broken fences
and leaky barns and perhaps lay aside a
penny also for rainy weather. Prosperi
ty has beamed on them, and they have a
right to ibdulge in high glee.
The Contmissiouer tells us that his de
partment lias been measurably success
ful iu introducing Indian corn and Its
products among Europeans, Heretofore
the poorer classes on the other side have
depended mainly on wheat for their ta
bles. Wheat made into various kinds of
food lias been the staple of the peasant
ry. It is the Russian wheat erop which
failed and caused the famine from which
both the Muscovite and the German have
suffered. If they can be brought to rel
ish corn meal a part at least of the dan
ger from hunger will be averted in the
future. A double crop, wheat and corn,,
is not likely to fall at the same time.
At any rate there will always be an abun
dant supply of one or ihe other on our
side of the water.
In contrast with this abundance is the
picture of unalloyed and desperate dan
ger iu the East—a calamity of suoh vast
proportions that the Czar abandons a
proposed festival In fit. Petersburg.
Even the court becomes grave and the
rloh are contributing to furnish starva
tion with a crust of bread. If only half
of what is told Is true the spectacle Is
pitiable, aud If the whole of It is true
the condition of tuese hungry folk is
simply heartrending. Starving men we
are told, have formed themselves Into
bands and are raiding any seetion whloh
promisee plunder. Where there is no
bread, the people are always in a state
of anarchy. Law aud order are despised,
and brain, heart and conscience give
way beiore the demands of the stomach
Little holdings are taken for debt and
numberless families are thrown on the
highway. There la one story, just rej
celved, of a wretched woman who ap
plied for help to a well to do neighbor,
and when refused she deliberately killed
her three children aud then completed
Vie tragedy by hanging herself.
These are the two pictures which
appeal to Our Imagination—it Is heaven
here and Hell there. Western corn sad
wheat, however, are on their way to our
soaboard In enormous quantities. Our
surplus Is quite enough to supply the
European market.—New Y'ork Herald
BISHOP IN DOUBT ABOUT IT.
Betiilkiikh, Pa., November 12.—Rev. I)r.
C. Hemlock Nelson who -a* last night
elected blthop of the Episcopal dloe.ee of
Georgia, arid to-night In reply to a question,
that he did not know whether hs would
accept or not
It seoms to The Times-IIecohdeb that
it would be wise for the conven
tion to ascertain certainly the disposition
of the minister under consideration to
ward the acceptance or non-acceptance
of the bishopric before any deelsire
notion Is taken. By those In a position
to know it Is not believed that the above
statement has a shadow of a foundation.
It has become rather a complicated cler
ical muddle and It Is to be hoped that
thla call will find favor In the eyes of
His Reverence. If “try, try again” hat
not lost Its msglcal properties the Epis
copal diocese will yet secure a bishop.
The New York World says:
“While there may be a question of the
good taste of those who continue to car
ry the emblem of the loet cause, there Is
much contempt to be felt and expressed
for some of their critics. There are
tboee who assert that the carrying of the
Confederate Hag Is the expression of a
disloyal spirit. This is not the truth.
The old Confederate flags awaken mem
oriea, but no disloyalty. The men who
march under them In these tatter days
are not enemies of the Union, and he
who accuses them of disloyalty is an un
patriotic citizen. The flag of our once
enemies and now brothers might better
be folded op and put away, Dut while
they who display It may show bad taste,
they do not necessarily show had blood.
Thera an no more patriotlo citizens in
the country to day nor any who would
fight quicker or harder for the stars and
stripes than the ex-aoldlers of the Con
federacy.” So long as the Southern peo
ple expect nobody else to pay homage to
their old flag and aak only to be let aloes
In their own rarerenoe for It, they can
- and they cannot be said

There Is to he s meeting In Clilckerlng
Hall to-night to protest against this gam
bling scheme and H will be addressed by
some of our prom nent citizen** —New York
Herald.
In the name of the virtue and Intelli
gence of the State of Louisiana there
should be an irresistible uprising
against tills iniquitous gambling scheme.
New York should be sustained and ap
plauded Id her aetlon, and her example
should be followed by other States.
The interests of religion aud morality
demand the abolition of this lottery
gambling machine and It is to be hoped
that the lease of twenty-five years will
be denied them, now and forever.
TILLMAN-KONDRUP.

Egan was not in touch and accord with

encouragement and protection. This
■hows that Egan abused his privileges
