JUDGF. J. K HINES. In Ms speech at the park yestertlny, Judge Hint* made rite remarkable statement that “Georgia polities are as corrupt ns the politics of Tammany llnll." I t Hon. W. J. Bryan, the. eloquent beta- ocmtk* -orator of Nebraska, has a dlf- fen at opinion of us Gtrorglan*. Gen. l-lwihs \Wiisi In Washington asked Mr. Bryan "why he voted against tbs re peal of the tax on state bunks?” Mr. Bryan replied that “If he litvd la the state of GcorgM, where the people are so conservative, ho would have voted for the MIL" Judge lllne* repeated tho charge that Col Atkinson Ind the Judiciary all committed to work for AtklnsonYi nomination. The folly of this charge to apparent when U is known that two-third* ot the judges of .Georgia favored the nom ination of Gen. Evan*. Judge llines declared that “the Dem ocratic party had drifted away from 1U old principle*, aud that the Populist potty was now the rrak Simon pure Democracy, holding to Jefferson's prin ciples, and having In custody the ark of the ruvetum.” * This is such s delusion tp the light of Edward Bellamy's construction of the Omaha platform. Bellamy wel comed the platform basins it repu diated Jefferson's view*, and wrote assays to the peopfo praying lu ac ceptance because U was such a de parture from Jefferson. The framers of ’the Omaha platform were not state rights men. Bellamy and Ignailus Dorifl!y contemn the doctrine., j Judge Illncs nexteptod 'fbe Omaha platform In full and favored all Its de- mantis of paternalism, centralism, na tionalism and government ownership and control. Judge Hine* is fully con verted. When he drank, he drank deep of tbs Omaha, spring. Judge Hines made Bght of the repeal of the odious federal election laws, nnd de clared they hurt nobody. Why he wanted them to remain he never ex plained. They were certainly non- Jeffersonian. The Ittpuhlitane take the same view of thosc»elccdon last* as dow Judge Hines nnd Inveighed ngutnst their re peal. But the Itepublkuns lay no claims to being Hlmon pure Jefferson- Inns. Judge Hines never criticised the Itcpubllcufu at all throughout his speech. STATE FACTS, JUDGE HINES. Judge Hines Mated In bis speech at the park yesterday that the national banks tried to prevent congress from relieving the Mate Ininks of the 10 per cent, tax on certificates issued during the panic of last year. As a matter of fact, os mu ay national bunks issued cirrlfleutcs as shutc Uinks. And the national hanks certainly would not op pose a measure of relief Intended for themselves. Judge Hines intended of course to prejudice the people who heard his speech ogainst national banks. If his information on other mailers Is as In correct n;t It is on this question the people will discover that lie cannot be relied an even to state facts as they exist. What national bunks in Geor gia or elsewhere opposed tho passage of the bill, relieving all banks of the 10 per cent tax on their Issue of cer tificates? IS DEBS AN ANARCHIST 1 The ChloapY papers ore very severe on the strikers. Obey paint a pluturo ot sufflvlng and distress that now threatens to become a horrible reality. They lipid the strikers responsible for tills Imminent distress. Hundreds of thousands of Innocent people who are In no way connected with the real or funded wrongs of the strikers are the victims of this monumental madness. Tho Chicago Hcitild says: , "Anarchy In Europe resorts to the bomb, the bullet and the knife, and It* apostles possess at least a personal bravery In running their own heads Into the peril they seek to Inflict upon their fellow- men. Anarchy In a portion of the United States today resprts to a different method. Both by resistance 'end aggression, by activity and passivity* it has disorgan ised stale and federal government. It has suspended lawful commerce. ' it has paralysed to a large degree all Industrial Interests. It has endangered the llvee of thousands of Innocent human beipga. It has subjected hundreds of thousands to discomfort and loss. Its leaders skulk behind proclamations and run no risk, so far aa they believe, of Injury to them selves. "The American people will not meet Anarchy with lawlessness. But It they are nut composed too largely of Idiots they will And a way to avoid this form ot Anarchy In the future by the devise- ment of laws that will compel Anarchic lenders like Debs lo put their own heads Into peril as the Anarchists of Euroep voluntarily do. “We are accustomed to looking upon France ns peculiarly cursed with disinte grating political forces. We are today ourselves dupes and victims of disinte grating forces to a degree deeper than France has ever known elnce her great revolution. "France takes her Anarchist! In times of pesce by the throat and throws them out ot a world they desired to destroy. We tolerate Anarchists like Debs and let him go on disintegrating tho Institutions of this country without realising that wa are paving the way to what may be be violent, convulsions. “That country Is In a deplorable condi tion, constitutionally and Intellectually, that baa no protection for Itself egalntt revolution such os Is being Inflicted upon It todey by the usurpation and lawless ness of one. man.” Tlio Issue that tho strike bed raised Is hourly growing inure serious. It one man like Detm Is allowed to piny autocrat and command 200.000 men to leave their work at a moment's uotice, nml they obey him; If he further com- mantis them to prevent other men from taking their place* and they obey him, what shall hinder Debs from plac ing 200,000 Wlndhcsieni in the hands of these men whom ho ham learned to command and who obey him a* If they were his slaves? Then who shall forbid Doha to give these men an oreler to shoot-ot Pullman cars or anything else that may be in s'ght? If Mr. Debs Is not already on the way to Anarchy, we do not know what Anarchy 1*. SENATOR HILL. Senator III11 foncht the Wilson bill to the last and refuse! to vote for it. He la a protectionist and la against tariff reform and fonght iia under pre tense of opposing the slight Income tax Itk.'orponxed In the hill. When tho war closed the Income tax was abol ished, and the tariff so laid us to bear must heavily on the poor. For thirty years the poor have borne an undue proportion ot the atrlff raxes. Now whoa In all good consrieoco and equity the Democrats attempt to adjust the rax awl equalise It and tax Incomes over $3,000 per annum. Senator Hill kicks clear out of traces arid vote* with the Republican* and Senator Pef fer to UU the whole bilk No man In the Union bates tho South now as Sen ator HilL He is mad because the Booth voted for Ctevelaod. In his other baler speech on the Wilson bill he threatened to arouse the North on sectional lines, saying the North would blot out all party lines nnd come to gether and take charge of the govern ment, as In 1800, If the South persisted In her jdemsnda for increase of curren cy, for income tax, for low tariff and repeal of tax on Mate bonks. The way the resolutions read from Hancock aod Washington counties it Is apparent (he people are looking for ward to sending strong men to the senate—men fully equipped for every phase of debate. Only thorough law yers are suited to nil phase* of debate in rhe senate. Nearly all questions In that body nre more or less of a legal nature, involving latva and requiring a knowledge of la w. • Men not equipped for all phases of debate, who cannot resist attacks from every quarter, are not the most useful senators. Bound by nature, by association, by Instinct, by self-interest, by a common suffering and a sacred past, whether from town or country, our people should ooutluuc to be one In mind, one In thought, one In purpose, and be who would rend In twain those who have so long dwelt together In unity la not a real friend of Mb country. The Democracy of 'IYoui> county passed resolutions for the immediate coinage of tf.lver, “right now," without regard to parity. They refuse to vote for any inon who endorses Cleveland's administration or even apologizes for It. i CUDEX ET TAURUS.

The Monroe Advertiser has the fol lowing In Its Issue of yesterday coni corning Hon. T. B. Cabaniss: The people of this, the Sixth, con gressional district are being asked by the opponents of Hon. T. B.

Mr. Barclay Ballard of Richmond, lud.. tells an interesting story 'qt t wo oxeu owned by Governor Morrow wneit he lived on the Llttlo Miami river, ileus Loveland. One of the beasts was blind, und Its mate waicned It so cdreiully while they were 'working together that their owner began to notice wnat ap peared to 'be an attempt on the part of the ogto tafk to Its blind, mate. When about to cross or go Into a ditch or onto rough ground the pilot would give a grunt that seemed to tell the blind ox what they were about to come In contact with. It was done by a peculiar sound, that told the blind ox whether to stop up or down. It was well any person's time to watch them and see how attentive the pilot wa* to his mate. Directly acrots the river there was good graxlng In the rich valley and Ilf the woods. The ford wits close to the mill, directly below tho dam, but the ford wu» a difficult one, full of deep hol.-s. They would go over the river when turned out. The pilot would keep on the lower side and follow the riffle always. (He kept a little In advance, about the length of bis neck. When graxlng be kept between the blind ox and 'the river. It possible. If they chanced to get separated the pilot would keep his eye on tho blind ox, and it the blind ox w.13 about to get too close to the steep Kink, on hearing a peculiar grunt from the pilot he wouM change his course. One certain grunt would drive him to the rltht or to the left. Mr. BaSlnrd rays he u*ed to enjoy trying to drive the oxen into the milt pond to see the core the pilot took of the blind ox.. Other people annoyed the oxen to gratify their curi osity. This the pilot learned, end would give a peculiar bawl to call the gov ernor's attention, and If he heard it he would call to the folka to let the oxen atone. MRS. CLEVELAND'S TACT.

Ex-Judge Dlttenhofcr on the Question of Privileged Journalistic Commu nication!. New York Mail and Express. Judge Dlttenhofer, who has made a careful examination of the legal aspect of the question of privileged Journalis tic communications, says that the ten dency of the courts is decidedly in the direction of recognizing the privilege of confidence when pleaded by reputa ble Journalist*. Not much has been written by the law writers upon the mutter, as U la of comparatively re cent recognition. To a Mall and.Express reporter he said: “Hegeman, in his work on 'Priv ileged Communications,' has gone Into rhe matter quite at length, and In his latest edition says: " The application off the rule of priv ileged communications to the public Journals and newspapers is not yet so well deflnod as It Is in other branches of confidential disclosures, oased upon public policy. The public press has developed Into a mighty Influence in all circles of modern civilizations. U has become the groat educator and informer of .mankind in social, civil and political life. Its ear is every where open to every volee, often hear ing the Intimation of violated law, and In crime ofien receiving the first confi dential clew to the discovery of the guilty party! 'and It publishes to the world all Its treasures of knowledge, and thus it has become a new und wonderous engine of power in every field of industry, education, religion, art. science, enterprise and govern ment. It is a new factor to be pro vided for in administering iaw In our courts of Justice, in the defense of lib erty and human rights.' "As evidence of a now and growing expansion ot the principle ot privilege applicable, or sought to be made appli cable, to rhe editor of a newspaper, alike with the other professions, it will not ’be out of place to assert here an editor's plea In this 'behalf, Inspired by the action of a Boston grand Jury. The article Is taken from the Central Laiw Journal, entitled ‘Journalist!^ Se crets.' m " ’A Boston grand Jury recently sum moned before It an editor, to State under oath, where he bud received cer tain information which was published in the columns of Ms journal. He de clined to tell, under ithe plea that the case was privileged. Thereupon foe court was asked to adjudge him guilty of contempt.' HONOR AND CONFIDENCE. •The cause thus originated by the grand Jury, being heard by the judge, who had allowed to issue a rule, to show cause why the editor should not be punished, an opinion followed, r«- loasing 'the defendant substantially ta ken by him at the outset. The result will create no surplrse, because there Is as much 'honor and confidence in volved in the communications made to editors of newspapers as between the lawyer and his client, the physician and his patient or the clergyman and his confessing parishioner. “Moral law forbids that communica tions confidentially disclosed In either of these relationships shall be pun ished. The law of the state, which Is founded on the moral, has taken the same high ground. Consider what a fetter would be put on all newspaper comments If the source of Informa tion in every case were the subject of an Inquisition on the part of the grand Jury. No one would be safe In giving Information to an editor for public use, though of the deepest Importance to the community. “He would make no use of facts with in his possession, although such em ployment of theim would be for the public good, a* thereby some man may be brought Into court and made an un willing witness. t "The press l« sufilclenty hedged about by the onllnary law of libel without the attempt of any grand Jury to un earth to public gaze the secrets of the editorial room. "The author says upon above quota tions: *U can not be presumed that the court In this case held that the common low privilege lexlstlng between artomey und client waa applicable to an editor and hi* private informant, for fuch la not Hie law. Nor cou’.d the court have extended to the case the privilege existing between physi cian and patient and priest and par ishioner, for these professions derive the privilege from the statute, and there Is no statute which extends the privilege to the editor and fils tnfomer.’ ".Section 231 says: The privilege claimed by the editor to be protected form the compulsory disclosure of/the nine of his Informer In matters of criminal violations of law derives some consideration from Us analogy to that existing between the prosecutor of the pleas and rhe witness who informs him on behalf of the state. •The editor in the wile scope of his vlgltinee over the good order and public morals of society, is recognised by the public as standing out In his newspxpet as a public prosecutor, eften exposing crime and arraigning at the bar cf pub lic opinion and before the grand Inquest ot the country peraens implicated .in the commission of crime before even the pub lic prosecutor has taken action In the premise*. The editor, thus, as It were fills the place of a tribune, and his news paper la a specie* ot tribunal, ot great benefit and assistance In the public ad-i ministration ot Justice, and .-.e it U well settled In law that omnvjnlcattons mule to a prosecuting attorney relative to sut- pecied criminals or to the operations ot a detective police are privileged and are not to be divulged by 'the attorney with out the consent of the person making the communication; ao, It Is argued, that The Great Health Drink Hafe, nre and reliable.
