reduction In freight rates. But they
were not given to nil shipper*, hut
merely to those who had so inoeh
freight to offer Mint they could extort
terms from rival railroad companies.
Tills large sum of money, therefore,
represents tin, advantage which the
railroad company gave large dealers
over small ones. First, small shippers
were wronged, anil then the people who
put their money In the new company.
It Is plain that the Interstate com
merce commission Is falling to perforin
the work expected of It when It was
created. At that time, ns nlwn’ys, the
oomplaint was against thu discrimina
tion practiced by railroad* rather than
against excessive rates charged by
them for moving .freight. We see here
that In spite of Uie oommlsstni a single
railroad system, hy a single method,
discriminated ngulnst sonic of its cus-
tooters and In favor of others to the
extent of $7,000,000 in only three years.
Apparently the commission had no re.
sun!nhig lutluenco whatever. If this
was lieeause the member* did not at
tend to *hclr duties, they ought to lio
dismissed. If lieeause the law tvus de
fective the defects ought to lie reme
died hi the interest of the railroads us
well us of the people.
TUB NEXT HOUSE.
In enso of a failure on the part of tho
electoral college to cliooso tho presi
dent, tlmt duty devolves upon the house
of representatives. In that body, ac
cording to tho constitutional provision,
the vote to hy states, so tlmt tho party
having a large majority of members
nmy yet full to elect tho president For
instance, If thu Republicans controlled
the fur Western states, which lurvo
only an representative In (he bouse, and
the smaller slates of the North and
Bust, It might happen that they could
elect the president, though having hard-
ly more than one tblnl of tbo members
of the house. A president so elected
would go Into ollicu under n cloud nnd
it to proluililo tlmt Ills iidmlulstratlon
would lio met with Ijwurmuuntablo
difficulties. Hut lie would nevertheless
lie mure than a mere locum tenons, for
hu could block all tho demands of thu
majority parly. Ills title to tho office
would lio as gissl, however much the
people might resent the maimer of Ids
election, ns tlmt of any other president,
nnd Ills power ns great.
At tho time of tho hi*! election, be
fore flits overwhelming power of tho
Cleveland sweep was r<■cognized, It was
thought possible that Weaver might de
velop strength enough In tho college to
throw tho election In tho house, lu
fact, ho dhl secure a considerable mini
her of votes und might easily lmvo held
tho IniJmico of power, proven ting any
other rnudlduto from having a major
ity, liml the relative strength at tho-
polls of Uie Uepiihlicansaml Democrats
remained about tho sumo ns before.
It Is now regarded ns oven more
probable that the third party may gain
enough electoral votes to prevent tho
choice of n president by tbo college,
Wo do not doubt that tlio thin! party
Is tho result of nu evanescent move
ment In polities that will pass uway In
tho coursu of n few years—that It Is a
moonshine party, with nothing lasting
nliout It; but It may for n sliort time
yet manifest great strength at the polls,
especially in tho least prosperous sec
tions of the country, where It will bo
Used us a vehicle of popular discontent.
It Is therefore more than posslblo that.
If the present slnto of business depres-
sinn continues, tlmt the third party
may Show In 1800 a very canaUlcrabto
Increase ofpower over that displayed
by it In 1802. Th'n fact ought to bo
kept carefully In view by tho Demo
cratic malingers. Thu light to hold the
next house ought to ho luiido not only
With the purpose In view of gaining u
majority of the votes io tlmt Isnly, hut
of gaining a majority of the members
from u majority of the stales. Then,
kn the event of n deadlock In tho eloo
toRil'mllege, the party candidate would
lie safe. Wo believe he would have no
chance whatever In a house where there
was a ivvisibility of combination be
tween Populists nnd Republican*.
These two forere always show a tend
cney to coalesce when anything can bo
luul by complete untou. Witness tho
votes of Populist senators lu tho strug
gle for reduetiun of tariff taxation now
going on to tho senate.
DISHONEST MANAGEMENT.
Tho Atchison. Topeka nnd Santn Do
to one of tho greatest railroad systems
of the country. It Is now In the bauds
of a receiver. Rullt ivlth Eastern cap
Hal—mainly Boston capital, to fact—
the xteuritles of this company haVo
hwg been ti favorite Investment to tlmt
part of the country aud In Europe,
few year* ago, when the company tlrst
fell tote tltuneinl d.tllcultles. It was re-
orgauixed by llustoo mint, who secured
the investment to the new stocks nnd
bonds of thu company of a good many
mtlllous of dotlnt* on. figures given by
tUem of the remiiany's business. Now
it to discovered tlmt theso Investors
wore deceived—ty uho plain language,
swindled. The figures did not tell tho
truth. IViey were not forgml; they
were token from tho books of tire com
pany; they really represented the busl-
nea dune by the rend, but they never-
Iheless lied, btvaitou certalu other tlg-
utva on the books were suppressed.
The earnings of the system were given,
and on these the plan of reorganization
was Itaxcd; but the tlgures showing the
retmtr* mid by tho company to large
shippers were not given, so that the
real uet varamgs of the syatetu were
fay Ins than they were represented to
be. It IS nuimkhlog to read that these
rcb-iree amounted to no tew than
*;,«w,txx> lu three years. If these re-
tours had been given to all shippers,
tto tuJ.Mk* would have been done. The
Bet result would have been merely
ron of high Ideals, so open to ev'J in
fluences ns Mr. Kolb has shown himself
to be. Tlmt they are deserting him
now to evidence that the fanaticism
which made their following of him
possible Is dying out When It to dead,
the strength of tile Democratic party
will have been thoroughly re-estab-
shed.
MIt. DEBS REFORMS.
It Is reported that Mr. Eugene V.
Dubs 1* about to go on tho lecture pint-
form under a lino contract ns to salary.
The strike which was called off yester
day, therefore, was not a failure so far
us Mr. Debs personally was concerned.
Ho can count with n great deal of cer
tainly an largo amt remunerative au
diences for several months to come.
Hut even Mr. Dubs now ndinlts tlmt
tho strike wus n failure so far ns other
people wore concerned. Ho oven goes
so far as to say that nil strikes of the
kind nro bound to foil. Ho to quoted
os saying:
1 will never again be connected with
any strike organization. The strike has
developed the fact that tho sentiment i f
tho people of the country Is against
strikes, and Uie government strums rendy
to pull down such movements at the
point of tho bayonet. 1 shall nereaiter
advise all workmen to seek redress by
the ballot.’*
It will bo scon that Mr. Dobs’ sur
render Is n very complete one. Ho
abandons all tho ldcus on which ho
besnl tlio labor organization which lie
built up, nnd comes around to tlio prop
osition ns old ns tho republican form of
govern incut, tlmt the evils which he
has complained of must bo corrected
at the ballot liox. In muklng this con
cession Mr. Delis, ns he menus to con-
ttouo uotlve in public life, becomes a
political Instead of a labor agitator,
urn! wo think ho ought to be congrat
ulated on tlio change. Ho will bo
socialist politician, ns ho was n social
ist lnl*>r agitator, but ho will tlnd much
more comfort, If less success, In trylDg
to poraiutdo a majority of tho people of
tho United (Rates that socialism to n
good tiling Umn ho did In trylug
bring nbout socialism by using tho
brute force of tho small pcrccntago of
tlto people bcloaghig to his organize
tloii. As u socialist politician Mr. Debs
will bo tin uotlve ally—an lutegral part,
In fact—of tho (bird party, but we doubt
whether the man who was responsible
for recent riots In Chicago will be n
soured of strength to tlmt party, to
spite of Ills thoroughly agreement with
It uq to mutters of mitiunnl policy.
We have been baring hard times lu
the South for three or four years, the
panic of last year only accentuating
evils which we already felt Never
theless the business of the South, as a
whole, has come out of the panic hi
better condition than that of any other
section of the country. This fact is
gaining recognition in the Northern
prcai and among Northern business
men, and we are not surprised, there
fore, that to that quarter of tho country
the first revival of prosperity to ex
pected In tills part of the Union. Tho
expectation 1s homo out by the fact
that It Is to the (South tlmt the rronpra-
Iration on n new nnd firm basis of
bankrupt railroads 1ms beguD. (inch
reorganization Is not possible except
when men wno control large capital
find to the country through which
tho roods run the elements of prosper
ity and the Immediate prospect tlmt
they can he utilized. It may possibly
be true that the great consolidation of
the railroad Interests to the South mny
result unfortunately for somo of mir
cities nnd to certain Interests, but tho
fact remains that tho consolidation Is
proof that capitalists regard the pros
pect for tho South ns promising well
for the future.
PANS THE HIM,.
Tlio New York T.mes 1ms outdo u
careful estimate of tho amount of pro-
tccUuui to tho sugar trust ^(lorded by
the McKinley law, by tho senate Jnriff
bill and by .the amendment proposed
us n basin of agreement to tlio confer-
enco committee. Under tho McKinley
law tlio protection given to tlio trust
amounts to nbout sixty cents on Uie
hundred pounds; under the Bcuato bill
to forly-scveu and oue-lmlf cents, and
under the proposed amendment
thirty cents. It will be seen tlmt tire
senate bill itself makes u considerable
reduction nnd that (ho amendment re
duces the trust’s protection oue-lmlf.
It to pnllkiblo tlmt tho trust needs no
protection whatever; tlmt it enu aud
does retlno sugar nt a less cost than
tho refiners of other countries are able
to do, nud that, therefore, tho utmost
limit of protection from the mauufne
Hirer's standpoint should not exceed
duty offsetting tho bounty on sugar
exported paid uy some countries. Tills
bounty, wo believe, to no ease exceeds
leu cento per lmudrcd pounds.
Hut while tills to true, we do not lie-
Hove tlmt tlio whole tariff bill, repre
senting the effort of many years pf the
Democratic party, should bo abandoned
rather Umn is-rmit the trust to
more Umn It to entitled to. The bill
should be passed lu spite of this defect.
Wlmt Is to prevent nmgrem, after tbo
bill. to passed, from passing another
taking away from tho trust tho fruits
of the extortion it la practicing upon

RAILROAD FREIGHT RATES.
To the Editor of the Telegraph: The
writer, having some experience as a
railroad agent, thinks thait an amend
ment to the existing law compelling
railroads to post two copies of all rates
nt each depot for -the information of
the public should be made, compelling
them In lieu of the above, to furnish
such shippers os desire It copies of all
rates nt the cost of nubHcntlon. As a
matter of faot the posted rales are not
examined by one shipper in a thousand,
the Verge -wholesale houses keeping
copies at their place* of business nnd
the small flrma getting the rites from
the agents. 'Yet the railroads are com
pelled to g» to this! additional outlay
for no practical good or be fined. No
one will contend for a momen't that the
railroads should do what the postofllce
department 4s not compelled to do, and,
every business mun knows that If he

present. The distinguished visitor was
escorted to a position of hontor nnd a
nip of the gavel brought over a hun
dred knights to their feet to greet the
grand chancellor.
By Invitation, the distinguished visi
tor took the chair and assumed charge
of the lodge, and in language well chos
en and In sentences beautiful and clear
he told of the order in other parts of
the state; how the knights of Albany,
Waycross and Brunswick met him on
his official visit and how their actions
and bearing of character stamped them
as among the best men in their respec
tive communities. He told of the spe
cial train from Brunswick bedecked
with ilags and covered with flowers
and how the knights of the cities
named scorned expense for "good of
tho order."
Then he apoke of Macon and Macon s
h'jsplkility and the kindly feeling that
existed betweeh knights of Atlanta and
this city; of the kind and courteous
manner In which he wa« received cn
the ocoosinn of his passing through the
city, combining business with pleas-
ure.
Next came an impromptu address
(duly prepared and typewritten) by Dis
trict Deputy Bridges Smith, every word
Df it original. It was gotten up In his
own peculiar and happy manner and
spoke of the days when, as a school
boy, he attempted to make his first ad
dress, which impressed him so. much
with his failure that it wus twenty
years before he essayed to do the name
thing again. 4 . t
Then Past Supreme Chancellor Wood
ruff compare^ the order of today with
what it was when lie was at Its head,
a»d noted tht* many Improvements time
had brought and predicted a brilliant
future. ' ''
Judge John P. Ross, he small of stat
ure, but large of brain nnd heart, dived
deep in the encyclopedia and said in
his humble Judgment the bnders of'to
day were doing morp for mankind in
destroying the selflaftness that devel
oped with civilization than any other
agoncy; that In the greed for place and
power men needed some sustaining
agency to pfevent us from destroying
one another.
Professor Abbott quoted Holmes, the
American ®»et in a beautiful manner
and well sustained his position.
Determined all shbuld be heard, tho
boy* called on Bob Nlsbet, who. ever rt-
mlndful of his duiles, gave an illus
tration of his position as follows:
You may talk about your genius and
your wit.
But the way to succeed is to git up and
git."
This brought tho gill lint knight an
encore that l.e could well be proud of,
nnd when he took his seat he must
have been satisfied that his port was
well done.
This brought the evening to a close
and every man who was there must
have left the lodge room feeling deeply
satisfied.
