PAUPERISM AND CHIMB.
Tho prcsldnut of tho national prison
emigres, rails attention to a fact of
great Importance which, though not
notv, has uttrnctcd comparatively little
attention. Tlio fact Is that the number
of criminate hi .he United States ftp.
ermines out of oil proportion to tho
groutli of population. Tlio figures
bring out this fact in n startling way.
In 1850 ono person out of ;t,442 In tho
United Status was a criminal; In 1800
otto in I,<H7; 1870 one lu 1.171, uud in
1800 ono In 757. That is to say, la
forty years tlio criminal classes in
creased nbout ftro times ns fast as tho
population.
Various theories lmvo horn put for
ward to account for tins relatively
rapid increase of criminals. < luo Is that
It la duo to the ulmormal growth of
cities anil towns, by which millions of
poople lmvo boon withdrawn fron tho
rural districts and subjected to tho
vicissitudes, tho temptations and tlio
poverty of city life. This theory seems
plnusllilo. Tlio great llow of poptiln-
.Bon to the cities hns Iwen most marked
since Hie railroad era Imgnn, not long
iKiforo 1850, nnd Is chnmcicrtsUo of
every country whose railroad system Is
largely developed, llut If tho lucrenso
of crime were wholly due to this cause,
It would 1k> equal In nil of these coun
tries. , Hot ns n matter of fact, It Is
not. While crime Ins Kvn increasing
lu tho United Slates by hups nnd
tmunds, ns tlio llguroa we lmvo given
show, it bad been decreasing In (treat
llrltatn. In that country the records
show n great falling o!f ia tho number
of oonvfctkMia for crime uud also a great
falling olT In the number of paupers.
Them nro not ouly relatively fewer
criminals mid paupers tlinu forty years
ago, imt actually fewer, so that It may
lie said thnt lu Uioso respects England
Is not only not worse off than slio was,
Imt is distinctly lietter off.
Posidldy im explana'lon, or n partial
explanation, of the Ineroiso of erlmo
lu tlio Pulled States eon lie found In
these foots of Unglldi exiiorl.'ace-Hmt
Is to sny, possibly tlio Incronec of erlme
In tigs country Is due to tho lbciense
of poverty. It Is no answer to the sug-
pwlkm to sny dint sluce 1850 the eouu-
try ns a whole has ticeomo euonuimsty
rich. So it has; tiut It Is also true that
during the same Mum the number of
very poor popple— people Who nro un
the verge of privntlcu—luis Increased
very largely. The new wealth Hut has
come Into the oeumry or been created
here Is not evenly distributed'hut 1ms
gone Into the minds of eomponulvely
few peoplo. Tile re*ult Is Hint whereas
la 1850 we tiad few rich men mid al
most no abjectly (»oor One*, we now
have many very itch unit very ninny
poor. Tlio featuring eoutmst m ootidl-
tkms Is uot eiHrulalod to add to the
cealenl amt ImppUirsa of thoso who do
not sluire the pooxciial >u of wealth, and
It Is not Impossible that this contrast
Is Uio cause, through the discontent,
tho envy, tho ndntf of smog ru(Tered,
the despair It creates, from which much
crime springs.
It will never bo that tho wealth ot
tho world wlU lie slmred equally by Us
people nud such a division of tt Is uol
necessary b> thrir happiness. Nor does
nu unequal division of it necessarily
breed crime. Mon do not fret about
tlio honestly nequlred wealth of thotr
neighbors. But when they seo that
wenllh was not earned hut Is the' revult
of d'svrlminaUon by the government tu
favor of its holders, they naturally be-
come dlssatlsflcd. v t:.
After nil, tho Isist rv'in.xty for crimo
is the doing of exnet JusHce by
gowmmoat In nit'its relations with its
caucus, the in. a it the bond of pnbl c
atTolrs nain-iiitk-ring always that they
(jioc. t do favont for ono citizen except
nt the expense of others.
A*QUBKR ARGUMENT.
One of our Poputtot routeinpornrca
thinks that the reveal striVo goes far
towards proving that the gorernmeut
should own the railroads "The rail
roads." Is says, "nave shown their
Inability to transport the moils, freight
sud passengers regularly." This Is a
curious spechuvu of Inverted reasoning.
The failure of the government to fully
protect the railroad* in the iw*
of their property nnd hi thrir right to
do buriaena ia used as an argument to
prove Hist the govenuneol to well qua!
tiled to perform other duties. If the
railroad* did not regularly transport
motto, firighl glad isueenger*. the fall-
urg was entirely doe to the Weakues*
of Hie goierttiwat-to >ts failure to
perform Us full duty-and tu* to any
lock of ability on their own part What
guarantee Is there, when the govern
ment foils la tho |K-rtomuuieo it the
plainest, simplest nf Its' duties. Hint of
protecting ettieeus ia Ibe possession of
their property and inatitalnlng public
order, that It will Is* In any degree suc
cessful In uduJatotettog tlio n If sirs of
the railroads? If It should not ho suc
cessful, wlint then? Revolutions do
not go backward, and tho government
anco in possession of 'lie miboads
would continue to I add them, uo matter
what disaster was brougtit an the ooun-
try from Its possession of them. Tho
hundreds of Hiousands of men with u
direct pecuniary Interest In ifovcrnment
ownership, I landed together for politi
cal uctrai. would see to It that no par

got oo*i tool of the government ,
A TARIFF "ERROR."
A telegram from Washington tlio
other day stated Umt the Republican
sumitohi had determined to prevent tho
correction ot uny error* lu Hia new
tariR luw. The most Important of
tlieso errors is a clause permitting the
freo importation of alcohol useil in Hie
arts, out of this orr-ir the Itepuhllcans
are to lag to make u good deal of pot
lltlcal capital. Mr. Sherman rays It
will cost the government £10,000,000 to
150,000,000 a your lii the loss of reve
nue.
Now It happens that this clause is an
amendment offored by Senator Hoar of
Massachusetts and put lu the hill main
ly by Rcpuldleaa votes. -It Is ex
plained that Mr. Hoar offered the
nmendment "tentatively" and was’ as
tonished when it was adopted. It lip-
pear*, therefore, that tho so culled
‘‘error" Is not an error, but tho result
of a Republican attempt to make the
law a hail one. If It remains uneor-
rccted Iiecauso of Itepabllnan obstruc
tion, *ii spite of tho fact that Repulp
llcnu senators admit that It ought to
bo corrected, there might not lo ho
much chance to tnako capital out uf It
for the Republican party.
Tho stato campaign opens In earnest
this week, when tlio Democratic enudl-
duto for governor nnd a largo number
of tho party's most prominent mou
take tho stump. It Is going to ho n
lively campaign nnd, of loursc, a win
ning one. But tlio certainty Hint tlio
DumocraMo ticket will lw elected does
uot innka. persistent, hnrd work by
every Democrat who can help to swell
the party's majority loss desirable.
There is ovtdeneo that the third party
movement tins lost its aggressive force
nnd to faltering. Tho election in Geor
gia should liy its results make this a
fact too plain to bo disputed by nuy-
body.
Mr. Clem rtillUps, -vho ts in charge
of the lucnlmnU* display at tho Dixie
Intel-state Fair, lias written a circular
letter lu which lie asks tho hearty co
operation of Mncoi. mciYhuiitp hi mak
ing tlio display all Hmt It should bat.
Wo hopo -Mr. I'hllllps wMl get tho aid

for tt Is tho duty of overy citizen of
Macon to help mnke tile fair the great
est success iwsslhle. Tho luerclmiits'
display can easily lie .-undo ono of tho
most beautiful features, nud this ought
to bo equivalent to saying that It

HARD TO GET AWAY FROM MACON.
To Hie Editor of the Telegraph; It I*
very hunt to get a-wny from Macon.
What will) my own buslnes* and (he va
rious other enterprlecs ot it public nature
that X have in my humble way tried to
help along, my hand* have been so full
and I have been *o cloaely ronltned that
my physician'* order* to set away be
came Imperative, and. Detains ihe nrat
opportunity thereafter of "acuaeton" mire,
1 bought a ticket over the Uoutlivrn Hall
way for Cumberland Itlnnd. My nrat at
tempt to get away from Macon 1 made
Saturday ntsht. To be aurc ot getting
off I engaged a faithful Jehu to call at
0 o'clock eo ns to be In ample time. You
remember how tt rained In Macon Satur
day night? Well, th* hackman wae mak
ing an extra drive, I auppoie, and did
net cull tor me until 10:10. Tho herd
ruins had waehcd a tot of suUlea on Col
ton avenue, and before we had fairly
started the hack had sene down nnu
the Hank axle mapped. Tho horses tried
to extricate themselves from the first
heck, while th* driver ami myseh
were trying to control them. Iiclnx thor-
i-ughly. drenched by th* “remorseless
drown" that JUS* down In great •‘gobs."
As soon a* tho driver recovered hlmselr
ho aekrd: “Now, bo*s, wh»t yer gnlne
ter do?" The drug Hore* were ell clo»ed.
no telephone* were acecxeible, and (hern
was nothing led for me to do out to
aw I in down town and take my baggage
back home. 1 nu.lo the trip success
fully, hut my* bathing suit will not cut
much of * figure on the beach at Cum-
h- ilun.l until 1 can get It dyed.over. 1
Illumed th* driver for not being on time,
and the driver blamed "them cussed old
hole* dal's deep er nuff to hide er ox
kyart In." I am opposed to traveling an
Sunday, so I waited until Sunday night
to nwiko another atari. Thl* time I
aent -Saratoga" down by the trap-frf
ihre* hour* before train time, and two
huura afterward I started out on fool
foe th* depot. 1 did not ride on Mat.
Winter*' *tr**t car because th* other diy
1 “rented" a pair of trousers on one of
them. During that day. ot cour*«, I
had an excuse of Dr. Johnson's tor the
accident. "A patch la premeditated pov
ertv. while a rent la only an affair of
th* day." t did not ride on Turn Oir-
ttng'u earn becaua* they' don't run by
our door. Well I checked my hostage,
the veallbulcd earn* along In due time,
and 1 was on my way to th* ."ealte.”
About Itfly mites thl* aide of Macon th*
engine got slower and slower until th*
ensted oH thing stopped. I sold my pray
er* again, turned back Into one M old
Pullman'* mooters and slept until are
reached Urunewk-k at M o'clock this
m.-rning. 1 went to a popular restaurant
and ordered n*h tor breakfast, but what
was my enrpriso and dlsgulst to nnd "that
the Bah had not come In yet. but we have
Weetern beet and eats and bacon." t
got a very good steak that earn* a thou
sand mil *. When hob might bo caught
right at hand, and have ran over to 8t.
Pinsons lo spend th* night, there bring no
boat tor Cumberland until
morning.
Think of the teeean to bo learned from
the Incident ot my break tael I Here Hwhu
state an old Inhabitant, one of his ai>
qualntancea. -lied and wo* burled. The
cloth of which bis burial suit was made
wa» woven In Boston; hi* linen enme
from Lowell, his sock* from Providence,
hie shoe* from Lynn and the yellow pine
coffin from Cincinnati, ant the hole in
th* ground waa all that Georgia furnished.
When will thl« Male of thing* cease?
Will It be the next year? will It be the
next decade? It will be when our people
reallxe that In order to get foreign capital
interested In our enlerprlM* In the Houlh
we have got to do something ourselves.
W* have got to show our faith by Invest
ing a little of our own money. If we
are too por a* Individuals to do this, no
must get our clUes ami our suite to "p-it
up the stuff.” This will be only -a mat
ter of business, and goo-1 business nt
that, for. where a city, for Instance, would
Invest MOO,000 In a manufacturing enter
prise of sme kind, nay tar works for In
stance, XI,**>,«<*> ot outall* capital would
come along with It. This Is not guesa
work, but It has been done and it can
be done again. Although I gave at Uot
gotgot away from Macon, you will see
that my heart Is still with her, and I am
thinking of the thing* that will be for
her prosperity. Faithfully yours,

In a letter written today to President
Pullman, ihe governor makes a state
ment of the -condition of the starving
people, baaed upon hie tour of Investi
gation and Inquiry made the diy before

something must be done at once, and
adds: "I repeat. It seems to me your

that the company caned all rents due

A GEORG!AN S LAMENT.
A spirit of unrest assails me,
Poor wanderer on the face of the earth,
Tva been sighing and longing for Georgia,
The grand old state of my blrtn.
Where the aun shines so brightly. *
O'er waving fields of golden corn.
And the larks, high up in tho heavens,
81ng sweetly of ths coming morn.
Where, knee-deep In seas of emerald green.
The great-eyed cattle placidly grate.
The tinkling of their merry bells
Making muslo for the golden days.
Should I In exile be forever,
No matter where I’d roam.
My heart will always hungrily yearn
For dear old Georgia and ."Home, Sweet
Home.''

He Goto ighteen Tears in the Peniten
tiary for Murder.
Richmond, Va, Aug. 21.—A Covington
special to the Dispatch says: Court met
yesterday morning, pursuant to adjourn
ment on Saturday, and after considerable
delay Goodman was brought In to be sen
tenced. He came along for the first time
during the trial. His wife was absent,
but was with him in Jail until ihe court
sent for him. The prisoner was cool and
calm. He waa greet*! by his attorneys
cordially and sat bohind them In the bar.
MaJ. Crump arose and submitted a mo
tion In arrest of judgment, which was
overruled by the court and an exception
taken. Tho clerk then directed the pris
oner to stand up. and asked the usual
questions oa to whether he had anything
to say why sentence should not -be pro
nounced on him. The prisoner responded
In a low but distinct and clear .voice
that he had nothing to say. and the judge
proceeded with the sentence of eighteen
years In the penitentiary. Goodman's
counsel moved for a stay of execution un
til October R, pending an appeal. This
was granted by the court without agree
ment, and the afternoon was spent In
preparing bills of exception. A number of
points have been raised by the defense
and exceptions token to the rulings of
the court, but only one seems to be much
relied upon «a a cause for setting aside
the verdict. This Is the admission ot
Staple’s testimony. It la held by the de
fense that a letter charging improper
conduct with a station agent's wife at
8t. Peter Cave will not and cannot apply
to a charge of Improper conduct with
the wife of a section master at Spring
Wood. On the other hand, the prisoner
admitted both by his letters and on the
stand that he thought that the Staples
matter was directly referred to in the
parson's letter. v
