SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 25,1893. SHOUT EDITORIAL PARAGRAPHS Brunswick may ire considered safe. Mr. Cleveland has lock-jaw when- ever tlic exigency of the case requires it. unit endorse 3 Hawaiian The cabinet a9 a President Cleveland' views. The latest report is that Dan La- mont will be a candidate for Gover nor of New York. Two thiids of the murders, suicides, outrages and robberies, can be traced to whiskey’s door. Tillman’s reform administrations has resulted iu a wonderful amount of litigation in South Calolina. And now we are to see who lias the most authority in Florida, the gover nor or the prize fighters. The government has paid off the nurses and guards at Brunswick and they are preparing to leave. The gratifying information reaches us that the Augusta exposition has opened under most favorable aus pices. The money spent by the working classes for liquor would make them comfortable and well-to-do in a very short time. The work of disinfection at Bruns wick will begin at once. If any mi crobes have escaped the cold weather they will be summarily dealt with. The New York Press calls Mr. Cleveland “our billion-dollar presi dent.” The News and Courier thinks he is cheap at that. The country rejoices with Bruns wick in tbe prospect of an early re lief from the terrible epidemic and escape from quarantine. McKinley is the logical republican candidate for president, and he is a*most sure to be the man that the democratic party will defeat. The people will be satisfied with whatever disposition Mr. Cleveland makes of the Hawaiian question. Let tbe disgruntled press find something else to kick about. The doom of the protection tariff was sealed last November. It has been sentenced and the sentence will be executed by a democratic congress in the near future. Teere is to be a square fight in Alabama between democracy and its enemies. The Kolbites*have thrown down tbe gauntlet and the organized have taken it up. The management of the yellow fever epidemic at Brunswick has been excellent. The death rate has been very low and the disease has been confined to narrow limits. The coal and iron men will resist the repeal bill so far os it effects them. When it comes to a matter of self interest we are apt to forget party platforms and party lies. The repeal bill will be passed all the same. Republicans have become so accus tomed to grabbing everything in sight that the idea of a president deliber ately letting go a rich possession se cured by injustice and deception fills them with unutterable astonisment. They will gradually learn to appreci ate the higher moral standard of this administration.—Savannah Press. The McKinley tariff law may be well entitled a law for the building of baronial estates and the establish ment of priviliged classes in America. It most and will be repealed and a democratic tariff put in its place. That tariff will be on the old line, we hope, of “Equal rights for all and special privileges for none.”— Thomas ville Times. The next World’s fair will be held in Paris in 1900. The turpentine men of Georgia, have dissolved. They don’t seem to be stickey. And now the papers and quite a number of statesmen will be telling wliat they don’t know about the tariff. The north coast of Scotland has been visited by a terrible storm, between 500 and 600 lives have been lost. The New York Sun is denouncing Mr. Cleveland’s Hawaiian policy The Sun must have something to kick about. The mystery attending the Presi dent’s visit to New York has been solved. He went to get a new cradle for the new baby. The governor of Florida has de clared .that he will prevent prize fighting in that state. Good for the governor of Florida. Steve Ryan’s business has again gone into the hands of a receiver. Steve will not go into business again soon, but will take a long needed rest. Dr. Deems died in New York yes terday. For many years he was pastor of the “church of strangers” and many southerners went to hear him. Uncle Sam has not yet taken charge of matters in Hawaii, but it is probable that lie will do so in a very few days. The provisional government must go and Lil will be queen again. The ore men of Alabama have been denied a hearing before the ways and means committee. Chair man Wilson says they are too late. They can button hole the committee on the outside however. A NATAL RESERVE FOR GEORGIA. The First Steps to Organize a Com pany Taken at Brunswick. Brunswick, Ga„ Nov. 15.—About forty citizens met to-day to organize a naval reserve. O. P. Goodyear was elected chairman and J. R. Thompson secretary. All present enrolled their names and by a unanimous vote elected Capt. G. H. Merrifield lieutenant com manding. Capt. Merrifield immediately organized his list of crews and forwarded them to Adjutant General Kell and Gov. Northen for approval. If the law au thorizing the naval reserve is passed, the action of the meeting will be con sidered by the gentlemen it was referred to. The revival of the feeling in regard to the naval reserve in Georgia is due to Capt. Merrifield’s personal efforts, aided by Gen. Kell and Capt. Raderick, of At lanta. Brunswick hopes to secure it. A Pathetic Leave-Taking. A correspondent of the Ram’s Horn states that a certain country minister took permanent leave of his congrega tion with the following remarks: “Brothers and sisters, 1 come to say good-bye. I don’t think God loves this church very much, because none of you ever die^ I don’t think you love each other, because I never marry any of you. I don’t think you love me, be cause you have not paid my salary; your donations are mouldy fruits and wormy apples, and by their fruit ye shall know them. Brothers, I am going away from you to a better place. I have been called to be chaplain of a penitentiary. Where I go ye cannot come, but I go to prepare a place for you and may the Lord have mercy on your souls. Good- bve.”—Ex. Miss_ Julia Force, the Atlanta murderer, now in the asylum at Milledgcville, refuses to see visitors and when she goes out on the grounds of the institution, wears a heavy veil. The Atlanta Journal has a scare head in Tuesday’s issue which reads: “Let Woman be Silent.” Let? By the pip-stricken tongue of the octo genarian chanticleer, whose been pre venting her?—Macon News. Our Senior, who is just back from the Augusta Imposition, reports that the most noticeable thing on the grounds, was the number of pretty girls This report plainly indicates that a man never gets too old to look at the girls. Georgia now has another railroad on its hands. The Northeastern cost Georgia $260,000 and is not worth more than $100,000. The best thing Georgia can do with her rail roads is to make H. B. Plant a pres ent of the whole outfit. It is expected in Washington that Mr. Blount’s Hawaiian report will be given to tbe public as soon as infor mation is received from Honolulu of the action of Minister Willis, under his iostructiocs. Mr. Blount’s report covers 1,200 type-written pages. Mr. R. M. Johnson, chief editor of the Houston Post, the leading paper in Texas, has been visiting friends in Bainbridge. We would be glad to see Rieuzi in tbe Magic City. Speaking of the recent cold at Brunswick, the Montgomery News has this caption: “Frost an Dice at Brunswick.” We hope Brunswick will have nothing to do with dice for the present. And hard times always tells against the party in power. It matters lit tle whether that party is responsible. The hard times may have resulted directly from the policy of the party that has been supplanted. To the average voter that is merely theory. He has to do with a condition. In the present case he only knows that the times are hard and the democrats were in, so he was against the dem ocrats.—Philadelphia Times. — Newspapers that know nothing about the subject and get hopelessly befogged In their own absurdities every time they attempt to discuss the silver question, continue to prattle about the demonetization of silver by the repeal of the Sherman law. The repeal of that law doesn’t demonetize a dollar of silver and keeps in circu lation, as good as gold, over $500,' 000,000 of the white metal.—Bain- bridge Democrat. Ronnd Abont in Georgia. The Savannah Press evidently think, that politics is a grab game. It says: Politicians can be divided into three classes—those who have had their grab, those who are still grabbing, and those who want to grab. The North Georgia Annual Confer ence will convene in Gainesville the 29th instant, at 9 o’clock a. m., with Georgia’s distinguished Bishop, A. G. Havgood, in the chair. About three hundred and filly delegates will be attendance. Tbe Capitol says there is a regula tramp camp in the vicinity of Ocala. Why not call it “headquarters for cross- tie tourists.” ^ All Sorts. Abraham Lincoln’s emancipation proclamation didn’t mention the tariff, but no one can deny that it was the fore runner of free wool.—Ex. Some genius has invented a machine to play pianos. This will give girls a chance to help their mothers in the kitchen.—Ex. Scientists now definitely place the age of the world at 45,140,000 years. This senate should evidently have been born a few million years earlier in order to have had ample time for talking. Col. Streator, whose hanging up of Private lams by the thumbs caused such a furore in Pennsylvania last year, has developed^another trait of character that strengthens his resemblance to the late but not lamented Butler. A few days ago he was arrested for stealing spoons at a restaurant in Wheeling. It is a time honored custom in Quin cy, Fla., to salute a newly married couple by firing a cannon. This i3 to remind them that the battle of life has fairly begun. When he begins to say it was his fault and she begins to declare it was hers, walk softly out of the room. That is the kind of a difference of opinion that leads to an agreement.—Atchison Globe. Father: “My daughter has mysteri ously disappeared and I have no clew.” Detective: “Have you reared her care fully?” Father? “Oh, yes! She was educated in a convent and never went out without her mother.” “You have faith that your husband will become a great artist ?” Wife: “I can’t tell yet, you see; be lias only been dead ten years.” * The Full Text. - The following is the full text of tbe resolution passed by the board of Aider- men last night: Resolved, By the Mayor and Coun cil of ‘he city of Waycross, in Council assembled, that the City Clerk be di rected to request the Hon.

GIVE US A TRIAL AND BE CONVINCED The Tramps are Here— Nine of Them Arrested. Between thirty and fifty tramps were in the S. F. & W. E. R. yards last night, and declared their determination of boarding a Florida bound train. They were notified by Mr. Crawford, the yard master, that they could not do so, Mr. West berry, haggage master, was also on hand and had a rough and tumble fight with one of the number who had board ed a freight train. The tramp came out second best. Assistance was procured and seven of the gang were captured. „ They were before His Honor, the Mayor, this morning. Five of them were fined thirty dollars each or fifteen days on the gang, one was fined $20 or ten days, and one $10 or five days. Two more were captured on a train to day and are in the calaboose. The tramp nuisance bids fair to be worse this season than ever before, but Mayor Knight and our efficient police force will be found equal to the emergency.

The New York banks have a surplus of $57,000,000 above the legal require ments and deposits are rapidly increasing. The surplus money in New York is the greatest in the history of the country, with the exception of the surplus of $64,- 000,000, which was reported in 1885, after the panic precipitated by the Grant and Ward failure of May 1884. The big surplus of 1385 was followed by renewed activity in the latter half of that year, 1886 and 1887, and cul minating in the boom of 1887. liquor and Pistols. Cuthbert, Ga., Nov. 18.—W.
