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 Uie senate) AM. RIGHT IN ALiARAMA. The returns from Atalsuim are yet Incomplete, but they leave no duubt that Mr. Oates has been elected gov vmor by a majority largely to excess of that received by hto Democratic predeenuor. The most gratifying feat tire of the return is that they show tlial to the white counties of the stale. Where the Populist movement turn been strongest, very great gains for tho Democratic candidate bare been nuid' We take this to Indicate n revolt Uie most totelltgsnt .non who hare been led off by that movement against the methods which Kolb nud hto lteuten ant* have employed In this campaign. It to not easy to understand bow thoux- nuds of g,«*l citizens,, no doubt of av erage inteUlgeoce. could follow a po litical leader so uuscrupulous, so bar- AT THE RACE COURSES.

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 wants In form it km and prettry not to go to the postmaster for it he can get It only by ordering snd paying for the Postal Guide at oost of publication.

Knights of Pythias, last Monday night, the inner guard announced to the chancellor commander that Grand Chancellor Douglass of Atlanta, was 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. CONFESSED)HIS GUILT. London,.
