The Survival of THE FITTEST.
WAYNESBORO. OA.. SEPTEMBER II. 1885.
wr We learn with regret from
the McDuffie Journal of the death of
I>r.Jame8 S. Jones, of Thomson, Oa.,
in tlie 7-ith year of his age. lie was
a Christian, and has led a long life
of usefulness and generous deeds,
and has closed his eyes on earth to
open them again in a glorious eter
nity. Let us hope that our end
may he like his.
far The Americus Republican
has come out as full a fledged, 7-col
umn evening daily. It is a hand
some, newsy sheet, and deserves the
partronage of all that section of
Georgia. We are glad to note this
evidence of brother Hancock’s (the
only senior we now acknowledge
on the Georgia press) prosperity,
and tender him our best wishes for
his future prosperity.
wr The walking match which
came off in Augusta Wednesday,
seems not to have giyen satisfac
tion to the betters. Orr, the great
professional, Is accused of selling
out, and the lambs who had money
upon him are howding like little
wolves. They should remember
that gambling is a game of many
chances, and be satisfied. Wilson,
Martin and Farmer dropped out
late in the afternoon, and quit the
field. The score at the finish, count
ing seven laps to the mile, stood as
follows: Prater, G.‘l miles, 0 laps;
Orr, fill miles, 5 laps; Quinn, 58
miles, 2 laps.
SAVANNAH NKWS TitAIIF. 18SIK.
We take pleasure in acknowcdg-
ing the reception of the trade is
sue, which was given to the public
last .Saturday morning. It is a
mammoth, 16-page sheet, and con
tains much interesting matter,
among which is a full and complete
review of the business and business
men of Savannah, and should be
preserved for future reference.
IIAltll up.
The Pennsylvania Pads are hard
up, and have sent out the usual as
sessment letters to the Republican
officeholders in Washington, assess
ing all Radical clerks for campaign
funds. But their little scheme
wouldn’t work, as the circulars
were placed in the hands of the
heads of the departments. The
civil service law seems to have led
the Rads to believe that they still
had possession of the government,
and therein they made a mistake,
and must look to some other source
for money wherewith to bribe the
“white niggers” of the North. If
this case had occurred in the South,
how would John Sherman and For-
aker have howled over it. Take
your own physic, Mr. Pennsylvania
Rads.
THKNKW ORI.KANS TIXKS-UKMOCRAT.
This great paper which daily mir
rors the news of the world, issued
its trade copy on the first inst. It
was a voluminous sheet, containing
a statement of the business of that
great city for the past year, show
ing the city’s triumphs and failures,
besides much valuable information
from all parts of the globe. To say
that the Democrat is a great paper
does not express half its acliiev-
ments and wide-spread influence.
The close connection of Georgia and
the metropolis of Louisiana renders
correct information from the great
city of New Orleans of much impor
tance to our people, and we know
of no better source for obtaining
that information than through the
columns of the Times-Democrat,
and should any of our readers de
sire a paper from that city, let us
advise them to send for the Demo
crat.
ANOTHKIt WII.II Al'CUOCKIATION.
On Wednesday, Mr. Russell, of
Clark, presented a bill in the house
for a further appropriation of $5,000
for the benefit of the State Univers
ity at Athens, supplemented by an
annual appropriation of $2,000 lor
repairs and insurance. Wo are
totally disgusted with these unjust
appropriations, and have concluded
that if some power should sweep
that institution from the face of the
state, it would relieve the poor peo
ple of the heavy burden which they
now bear without any chance of re-
cieving a shadow of benefit. At
every session of tho legislature
these wild appropriations are made.
Ho these men who assume to give
awuy the people’s money, ever stop
to think how terribly oppressive
and unjust these upproptiutions are
to the struggling poor of Georgia,
who are compelled to pay taxes to
raise the money to spend In these
appropriations without any chance
of receiving an lota of benefit?
They should remember that they
are trailing in the sweat and toil of
those who have no way under heav
en to assert their rights or defend
themselves against this great wrong,
and net more Justly, more honestly
towards them. If the state univer
sity cannot, like tho other universi
ties in the state, sustain Itself upon
its own merits, and It has not done
so, let it fail. The sooner the better
for the sons of toll of Georgia.
AI III ST SHOWS A 10.(1,l\K.
In our local columns to-day we
publish an item of Information,
stating that the cotton crop was
badly cut off in this county. Below
we publish a telegram from the
agricultural bureau at Washington,
showing that the falling off is not
confined to this county, but is gen
eral :
“Washington, Sept. 10. — The
September cotton report of the De
partment of Agriculture shows the
prevalence of hot and dry weather
during August, except in Louisiana,
Mississippi and Florida. Shedding
of bolls and decrease of vitality
have resulted quite generally.—
Drouth has been serious in Texas
and Arkansas, and quite general in
Western Tennessee, Southern Ala
bama, Georgia and the Carolinas,
Caterpillars have caused much
damage in Southern Texas, Arkan
sas, and in Central and Southern
Alabama. Their prevalence is
noted throughout Central and South
ern Georgia with small effect as yet.
The boll worm is causing much
damage in the black belt of Ala
bama and Arkansas and Texas.
The condition has declined in every
state. The average is 87 against
98J4 in August. Last year it was 82
in September, and 87 in August.
The present average is 2 points
above the September average of 10
years. The figures for the several
states are as follows: Virginia, 88;
North Carolina, 86; South Carolina,
88; Georgia, 91; Florida, 90; Ala
bama, 88; Mississippi, 89; Louis
iana, 90; Texas, 82; Arkansas, 83;
Tennessee, 87. Generally the plants
are vigorous and capable, with
favorable autumn weather, of am
ple growth and boll development.
In the districts most infested with
cotton worms the loss is irreparable
and still threatening.”
WON’T PAY IT.
Rear Admiral Jouett has render
ed a bill to the amount of $100 for
a little dinner he gave on board his
ship to a party of jovial friends.
Secretary Bill Chandler had allow
ed the bill, but did not stay long
enough to see it paid, and now Sec
retary Whitney holds that the ad
miral must pay for his own fun,
and that the government has noth
ing to do with the admirals sprees.
Below we give tho case:
Judge Maynard, second comp
troller of the treasury, has decided
an interesting point in considering
an item of $400 in the accounts of
Paymaster Stevenson, United States
navy, for expenses incurred by
Rear Admiral Jouett, of the United
States steamer Tennessee, in enter
taining the following public officials
at the New Orleans exposition:
Director-General Burke and party,
Gov. McEnery, of Louisiana, staff
and friends, Gov. Bourne, of Rhode
Island, staff and friends, the Mexi
can commissioner and party, Gov.
Cameron, of Virginia, staff and
friends. The accounts were ap
proved by Secretary Chandler. Pay
inspector Stevenson certifies that
the articles used in the entertain
ment of the above guests were reg
ularly purchased in open market by
order of commander Stanton, com
manding the Tennessee. Rear Ad
miral Jouett acknowledges receipt
of the money to pay the bills. The
second comptroller says he can find
no law for these expenditures, and
that there is no statute or naval
regulation which imposes on naval
officers the duty of entertaining
public officials at the expense of tho
government. He says: “It is one
of the penalties of official position
that the incumbent is sometimes
required by social usage or the eti
quette of his station to extend hos
pitalities to persons upon occasion
when as a private citizen he would
be free from obligations, but it is a
burden voluntarily assumed and
apparently not of such magnitude
as to repress tho ambition of men
who seek position. There is no bill
of items rendered with this voucher,
and l am not informed of the char
acter of the outlay, except that it is
declared that the public exigencies
required tho delivery of the above
mentioned articles, from which it
Is to be inferred that were merchan
dise of some character not embrac
ed in the regular supplies with
which the ship was provided. Tho
paymaster has paid the bill in good
faith, and by order of Ids command
ing officer, and he should now bo
protected.”
Attention Is called to section 285
of the revised statues, which pro
vides that in cases like the one in
question the commanding officer
who orders tho purchase shall bo
held responsible for its payment
and not the disbursing <. fllcer who
paid the bill by his direction. The
item is therefore allowed in the ac
counts of the paymaster, and might
under the statute be charged ugainst
the commanding officer. The vouch
er, however, shows that the money
was received by Rear Admiral
Jouett, commanding the squadron,
and as it is money belonging to the
United States, unlawfully expend
ed, it may bo followed Into what
ever hands it can be traced and
restitution compelled. It should,
therefore, be charged against the
latter officer in his accounts, and re
garded as advanced against his
salary.

Washington, September 4.—The
commissioner of pensions has trans
mitted to the secretary of the inte
rior the following communication
from the chief of the mail division
of that bureau:
“September 4,1885.—General J.
C. Black, Commissioner—Sir: I
have to report that this office is to
day In receipt of over one hundred
letters to its employees, post mark
ed Philadelphia, September 3d. I
herewith transmit a sample of the
letters:
“ ‘Headquarters of the Re-
publican State Com,, Cleveland
Hotel, Parlor C, Philadelphia,
September 2.—-Dear Sir : We de
sire an early subscription to the
committee, and as liberal as you
can afford to make it. If the re
publicans of Pennsylvania win a
decisive victory this year, it will
prevent any agitation of a disas
trous change of the tariff by the in
coming congress and pave the way
for the overthrow of the Democrat
ic state and national administra
tion. We propose to push the work
of the state committee with the ut
most vigor election day. Please
send your subscription as early as
possible by check, money order or
call at the quarters. Yours, very
truly, Titos. V. Cooper.’ ”
“To J. Frank Miller, Pension Office,
Washington, D. ('.”
A number of similar communica
tions were received by employees of
the land office. Acting Secretary
Jenkes has transmitted the circular
to the civil service commission, for
such action as they may deem prop
er. It is maintained by the officers
of the interior department that the
Pennsylvania state committee have
by directing the letters specifically
to employees,to bedelivered by car
riers in the government buildings,
committed a breach of section 12
of tho civil service act, which reads
as follows:

all our readers and their friends the
Augusta Savings Bank, at No. 811
Broad Street Augusta, Ga., which is
already well known and patronized
by our people. This is a safe, pros
perous and well managed corpora
tion, which receives deposits on
favorable terms and pays interest.
Its accounts are written up every
six months when interest is added
to the principal and compounded.
Land and security investments
are good in their way, but in a time
of need for money the fixed invest
ments must be disposed of some
times at a sacrifice, before the cash
can be realized; but in a good sav
ings institution like the Augusta
Savings Bank the money is always
obtainable at once, dollar for dollar,
besides Interest so that for the
working classes and people of small
means the savings bank is the best
investment in the world. Capt.
Joseph S. Bean, the well-known
cashier, is acquainted with many
of our people, and on calling at his
office he will be glad to give them
any information, or by writing to
him he will be glad to send cir
culars or give any advice. The
manager of this paper has.had a
long banking intercourse with the
Augusta Savings Bank, and from
his personal knowledge he hopes
the numerous readers among whom
this Journal circulates will patron
ize and get the benefits of the Au
gusta Sayings Bank,
Tho Coming Fair.
Last year the prospects of our fair
were ruined by the long drouth
which cut off the crops, and render
ed it almost impossible for our
farmers to show good specimens of
farm produce. The present year
the prospects for an interesting ex
hibition is very flattering, and if
specimens of farm products equal to
many we have seen are placed
upon exhibit, it will show that
Burke county can be made the gar
den spot ot the state. Every farm
er, manufacturer and mechanic
should contribute to the exhibition,
as it is to the interest of each, indi
vidual to make the fair more than
a simple success. An exhibit of
Burke’s agricultural capabilities
must attract the attention of stran
gers, and induce them to seek
homes within tlie limits of a county
whose fertile lands and genial cli
mate can he made to yield such
bountiful and varied crops.
We hope the ladles will see to it
that their department fully repre
sents their taste and skill in the
manufacture ot their beautiful crea
tions which only their fair and deli
cate fingers can create. In a word,
we do not consider the fair in the
interest of any individual, but a
public benefit, and hope that tlie
people of our county will make it
of value to all.
