CONSIDERABLE SMOKE.
The Philadelphia Telegraph in a
cent Issue prints a long dissertation on
the attitude of Congressman Uilla in re'
gard to the silrer question in the next
Presidential campaign. The article la
published as a Washington special and
charges Mr. Mills with making a deal
with the anti-silver politicians of the
Sait, and with working for the fruition
of that outlined programme during his
Ohio campaign. The Telegraph's Wash
ington correspondent gives full details
as to the arrangement entered Into by Mr.
lfilli and bis supporters in this scheme,
and a general observation of event! will
go far toward* verifying the charges
made against the Texas representative.
Tet it seems tbst be might have chosen
a more fitting time daring which to can
vass for his aspirations to the Speaker-
ship of the next House than that of a
great national election, (for the last was
surely of auch significance) and have
omitted to conclude bis deals with the
two factions of his own party until be
bad done his best for the general interest
of Demooracy In the recent struggle.
Chas. F. Crisp, the star representative
of tbo South, laid aside all personal am
bition for the ti ne being, and In the
midst of griovous domestio grief,
through the Illness of a son, bent his
best energies to the victory of his party
)n a more than doubtful State. And
should 'Jndge Crisp not be elrcted
speaker at the next assembling of the
House, it will not be for the reason that
he is not tlieroto entitled, but because
he disdained to use the common elec
tioneering schemes usual to ward politl
GOOD REPORTS OP THE SOUTH.
The Manufacturers' Record, of Balti
more, of November 14, in reviewing the
industrial progress of the South, says:
“Many leading bankers and capitalists
have lately been visiting various parts of
the South, and their reports are uni
formly favorable as to the splendid pros
pects of this favored section. Financial
troubles throughout the world have, of
course, hsd their natural effect in re
stricting new developments to some ex
tent, and the folly of Southern fanners
in raising too much cotton during the
last two years has caused very low prices,
which have had some retarding Influ
ence upon all business matters in this
section; but despite these temporary
diawbaclu the South is forging ahead
solidly, and Is steadily attracting in-
creased attention to its vast natural re
sources and advantages which Insure Its
abundant prosperity in the near future.
The wonderful record of the list ten
years will undoubtedly be far surpassed
by the coming ten. For twelve months
the conditions have been against the in
auguration of new enterprises in any
part of the country, but with the return
of more activity after the first of the
year, when the crops have been gathered
and sold, there will naturally follow
revival of new Industrial and railroad
development work. Even during this
unfavorable period the South shows
long list of new enterprises every week.”
Mr, Mills may be Innocent of tho
charge made against him, but It has
been truly said that “where there Is
mueb smoke there will be found some
fire." (
AN IMPORTANT CONVENTION. 1
The Son them Cotton Manufacturers' Days,
Nov. 90th and 91st, wilt attract mill men from
all over the South. The Ms ufaclumV As-
eoetstloo of Augusts have ehnrse of the con
vention. Three hundred Invitations have
been I sailed. Preparations have been made
to banquet the detesstee.
This will be one of the most notable bodies
that has ever met lathe Booth. Our greet
Interest lathe manufacture of cotton, and
the field for Investment and development In
this Industry In the South la practically
without limit.—Augusta Chronicle.
This feature of the Augusta exposi
tion is ons the importance of whloh can
not bo overestimated. Augusta herself
owes her commercial Influence of to-day
solely to her manafaotaring enterprises,
and while her canal system hu contri
buted In n degree to tbo profits aooruing
from these enterprises, her water power,
In Itself had little or nothing to do with
their Inauguration, and oven had not
this advantage existed the city could
easily, and prohsbly would, have atill
gained the prestige she has already ac
quired as a factoring center.
The importance of manufactories, of
whatever site, should be reoognixed by
every city, and money so Invested, while
not In every, ease paying cent per cent,
wiU almost without exception prove a
sure and fair return on otherwise unem
ployed capital.
Toe Tihes-Recobded baa more than
once endeavored to Impress upon Its
readers the vital necessity for more man
ufacturing establishments In Americas,
and statlstlo* will show that, of the
towns of the South which are now npon
a substantial basis of progress and
growth there are few whloh do not owe
their prosperity to their manufacturing
Interests.
SACRILEGE AND PROFANATION.
On Sunday morning Rev. (") Sam
Jones held forth at Trinity church In
Atlanta, and the Constitution sees fit to
devote to his discourse about two-thirds
of a column of its valuable space. Such
recognition is immeasurably more than
this pantomimic orator doserves, and the
Constitution Is doing him an undeserved
honor in publishing any portion, how
ever small, of his unbearable and filthy
discourse.
There aro many fanatics who will and
do contend that the only way to touch a
depraved mind is through depravity in
exhortation; and yet this warped theory
has never yet held good in any perma
nent degree. Those of excitable and
nervous temperaments are easily acted
upon and evil influences will always be
found to exercise as much (or more)
sway as those emanating from morality
and general Integrity.
That Mr. Jones possesses the kindred
attribute to godliness (cleanliness) even
his most staunch supporters cannot
maintain; and The Tiues-Rkcordeu
cannot, by any stretch of fancy, beliove
that abiding good can come from sueh
methods os he sees fit to use
In all the good for humanity that Mr.
Jones can accomplish ever] body wishes
him “God-speed;" but it Is not believed
that the interests of Christianity require
that evil be done that good may come.
FROM LIFE TO DEATH.
A characteristic American suicide was
that of George B. Lawrence, Pittsburg's
handsome young lawyer, who, haring
spent the evening reading a novel, smok
ing cigarettes and chatting with the
hotel clerk, went calmly up to bis room
and sent a .39 calibre bullet crashing
into bis brain.
There was no despondency, no fas*,
no explanation—only some stained bed
linen and a corpse. Mr. Lawrence bad
reasons of bis own for going out of this
world and be went with that same un
ruffled demeanor and that same business
like precision so common among Amer
ican gentlemen and so uncommon else
where.
Ho had friends and a father and
wife, but they could not help him, so
why bother them with his troubles.
Some one would pay his hotel bill; some
one would see to his burial—so blow out
the cigarette and bang! held with
steady hand the revolver has done Its
work!

Commenting upon the recent circular
issued by Mr. John Palmer, commander-
in-chief of the G. A. B., the Wilming
ton (N. C.) Messenger says:
Then Is not a mtgnanlmons, nobis soul In
all tbe North.ro band of veterans who would
deny to tbe Sontb whatever of comfort sod
aallsfactlju tt esu draw tram the emblems
of a gnat sad splendid war that so Illus
trated the arms of Vis vast country, and
taught tbs world how treat were the people
on these shores.
1 Several issues since The Timm-Re-
cordbii published a similar comment
upon the action of the Grand Army
chiefs stand npon the Atlanta demon
stration, and a glance at tbe press of the
country during the Interval elapeing be
tween the publication of Gen, Palmer's
circular and the present time will con
vince the reader that all fair-minded and
conservative people throughout the
United States, condemn, and in onmeas*
ored terms, the bitter and sectional at
tack of Palmer upon a defeated banner. I
Sectional strife is kept alive solely
through these bitter onslaughts, ema
nating from both sides, and through just
such soreheads as Gen. Palmer and Col.
Elliott ¥. Sheppard, and an inveatiga-
tion will prove that these agitators took
IttUaornopartiu the recent strife. A
brave warrior hold* for no ons a greater
respect than for a fallen and courageous
foe.
Suakspeaue, through the mouth of a
rather disreputable monarch of Den
mark declares that, “there is a divinity
which doth hedge about a king,” etc.,
but It seems that' modern Democracy ia
obliterating this feudal sentiment and
realizing that after all tbe crowned
rulen of earth aro only human and of
the samo hue day aa the subjects from
whom they draw their regalty. Over
thirty yean ago Albert Edward, prince
of Wales and heir to tho throne of all
the. Indies, traveled through America,
and oven In this land of freedom and lib
erty-loving people, be was almost bowed
down to m..the embodiment of human
greatness and high estate. Alaat to ob-
senren on ibis side of the water his ca
reer has been watched with only a ply
ing ourioslty and a wonderment that a
life of so bright a promise should be
smirched with a personal reoord so
stained. But to the people who bare for
half a century looked upon him not as a
man. bnt as the future head of the most
mighty power tbe earth has ever known,
his shortcomings become an Individual
grievance, and a nation mourn* hi* sins
as does a mother the moral fall of her
only ohlld Yet tbe “divinity” has dis
appeared, the halo baa gone and ' the
time has passed when the publio Is held
in awe by the clroumstance whloh has
placed at its head a common mortal, and
the monarob of to-day is criticized al
most a* freely as ths president of this
harmonious and united republic; and
rightly so.
