A few days ago tiio Atlanta Uuuatltu-
tion published the n-pyrt made by the
bimetallic niciutiura ot the recent tier-
:nan silver conference. Thla report wits
a very able one and the rigua litre*
were those of tneu wins sta nd in the
tint rank of German scientist*. It trait
therefore worthy of ull the words of
comuieuntitiuii which our contemporary
saw lit to bestow upon it. Coilecteii
iu oompamUvely Hinall space are all of
1)10 best grgtuueuts and strongest evl-
clettco going to show tint the dnmonetl-
xatlon of stiver lias resulted in n steady
lowering of prices, entailing distress
upon the people of every civilised coun
try who nro engaged hi protlucllvo In
dustry. It tflwwnl ns clearly ns ran bo
shown that it general revival of pros
perity Is not isiHs'.tde until silver be
comes money uceeptetl on ctiual terms
with yold.
While our contemporary was keenly
observant at these point* in the report
nnd of Its strength ns an argument for
hlmotsUnm, It was strangely'blind to
another point wh'cli the signer* were
careful to make proud lien t by a special
empluisls. They ardently favor bi
metallism, but they expressly statist
that they do nut favor any attempt hy
Germany alone to ic-cktnblish It, hut
look to nil lirtcninbonni agreement ns
the only possible menus by which that
much tleelred out) can be accomplished.
Why should tlic Coiislliulluu accept
the cisK'ltHion of these flcrmna sel-
cntlsts that b'metnlllsin must In tho
Interest of clvd.iutlou be re eatubllsiicd
nnd reject with soortt the conclusion
readied by the same men ns to the only
maims by which bimetallism txvn Iw se
cured? They nro ns itmiit authority In
.one rase ns the other. If their argil-
mem for blmetnlLsm Is sound nnd
basiil on sulllcleut testimony, what ren-
hou Is there to believe that their con-
elusion that nit bni'rimaiounl agreement
Is neciwaary. Held with etpml tanuclty
mill (tootled 'after Uiu Mine degree of
patient nwetirch, it rally worilty of rid
icule by the polltlivil economist* of At-
ltuutt, On.? It seems to us that our
ooatrauimwry Is bound tu take the tes
timony of Mte witnesses whom they
milk so high either us u whole or not
nt ull. it Is uot at liberty to say Hint
they tell the truth In one lnslttfiee nnd
lie In another; that Uteir great learning,
patient tw.Mivh nnd iitlcllectuil hon
esty cutltle one ixmclusktn reached by
them to the utuiuadionittg acceptance
of mankind. Imt Hint anotlter rendu-
triou n<1,1011 by them Is so manifestly
nlntml, 1*1 trivial, so lacking of n baaji
iu reason, that nil men ought to seo ils
falsity ut unco nml laugh at It.
It Is 11 rather remarkable fact that
nowhere la the world, except tho
United States, inn be found a bimet
allist who IxNlcres that the
establishment ut a truo bimetallic
system is wtthlu tho power ot a nation
acting alone. YVt nobody will doubt
that the bimetallists of l-'rtutcc, of Uer-
many and of Kuglnnd are pair’.otio
mint, Jeukuts of the lights ami of tho
dignity of Utclr respective oou'.itrlce.
] Xtlier of thorn would bo as slow ns the
editor of tho Atlanta Constitution to
cvncvtlo rtiat the laws ot his country
regulating Us currency should bo made
by forvignera. Uut neither of them Is
ublo to *1 ouy dcrogattoti from the dig
nity nnd honor of his country In a strict
regard by its legislative body for laws
id tradr winch ivmgtvis nor parliament
can abrogate, which they did wot make
anil which will exist always tu spite of
them, which were created by nature or
by mm acting as a race and not by ra
mus. lYte illfferoneo between tbeeo
German sdetulsta anil the Idtuetallista
of France nml England who agree with
them aud the editor ot tho Doastitutlun
Is that they. seeking tho general good,
wish to observe laws which they eat
not ohtMige. aud he, seeking to cufoti
lt pot theory, wishes to Igttore those
Jaws. Their argument for bimetallism
Is liascd on the assumption that thoso
laws will bo observed, and he has nc
right to call on them for amlstaneo In

opposed.
INJUSTICE IX) JUDGE TURNER.
Recently the Atlanta Constitution has
•cob lit to twsnmo Its warfare upon
leading Democrats ’Hie prrakbmt's
failure to sign the Mil which ho had
denounced in Uto at consist terms vrtu
"tavle 1b* occasion ot an attack upon
Mm at unreasonable as.lt was nnjust.
A story printed to a Now York paper
which Secretary Carlisle coutcnts hint-
eetf with dnnouncing as a milMous lto
was treated as It It were undeniably
true and made the basis of insinuations
against ihe political if net the persoonl
honesty of a man whom Democrats gen
erally regard as above suspicion. The
third victim of tho Constitution's mal
evolence is the Huh. Ilenry G. Turner,
Who stands in the very first rank of ihe
men whom -Democrats ilehgUf to honor.
When the suite convention met in At
lanta 00 Hie 2d of August If was found
that a difference of opinion existed,
Irreconcilable for the moment, as to
tho manner in tvhleh the silver question
should be treated. The outooine was a
usupronase which represented the
views of neither faction but offered n
common ground on which they could
meet. This compromise was adopted
•n die belief tlut during the campaign
Just begun it was ueccssary Hint har
mony should be preserved. It follows
Unit if ibis compromise was -accepted
In good faltb Democrats are for the
tlinc being—that during this «un-
paign—debarred from uttcmptVng to put
Upon the «.lver resolution u meatihg
which tho convention deliberately re
fused to put in If.
The Tciegrajdi bas been perfectly wil
ling to leave the silver rmointlou of tho
cuuveDtlim to be livUWpreted by each
individual voter us he thought best, awl
has oaatuuted Itmflf with pointing out,
when provoked to Ho so, that It did not
and conld not bear certain constructions
which were sought to bo put upon It
The Telegraph ha* protested, for ln-
sbince, that the resolutions did not
mean that tho Democrats of Georgia
demanded the free coinage of silver at
the ratio of 10 to 1—that an attempt to
put the Democrats of Georgia on the
I’opullst platform without tholr con
sent wns -an net of had faith nml in vio
lation of the terms of tho compromise
by which it was hoped that tho peace
of the party might be preserved.
The OoUHtltuthm’s attack upon Mr.
Turner is made Iracnum iu his speech
at Dixxitur that gentleman suvv tit to
express view* on the silver question
not in line with the demands of rite Pop
ulist parly nor tu consonance with the
atrulnod interpretation' which the Cun-
stltuthm lias itself sought to put upon
the Dunuemtle platform. It even ven
tures to question Mr. Turner's Dem
ocracy—a Democracy tried by tho stress
of tnnnjj yearn’ service under tho most
trying circumstances nnd never yet
found in -the slightest degree wanting
In truth. When It goto further trad
speaks of Mr. Turner's speech us an
"eloquent arraignment of the Demo
cratic bimetallic policy” aud soys that
“as fur as results go rate of Judge
Hines' speeches In itself Is not a whit
more damaging to Democracy than
Judge 'Dimer's anti-silver argument” it
lunult tlie Intelligence of Georgia Dem
ocrats at the saute time that It docs a
gross itijustl.ee to one of their best and
most trusted leaders.
Tho Telegraph is not supporting
Judge Turner for the senate, lb doing
vvhnt It can to turUicr the candidacy
of another Democrat equally able and
equally true, It In effect opposes him.
Hut the Telegraph Is not engaged lu the
business ot killing off Democratic lend
era. Instinctively it goes to their tie-
fouse when they nro unjustly attacked.
It protests against the injustice ilono

him to Ihe legislature, during it part of
which time he ha* held, excepting tho
otflie to which he aspires, the most hon
orable rank In that body, tbe chairman
ship of the Judiciary committee. Tbs
law of heredity assert* Nself unmistak
ably in his splendid legal ability. His
grandfather, Chief Justice Hiram War
ner, whose narne he bears and width
Inspires him to nnugb: but deeds of
noble endeavor, was vjslly in his day
and generation the greatest of nil the
groat Jurist* of Georgia. Mr. Hill's le
gal knowledge, like that of Judge War
ner's, is clear, far-reaching arid sound;
and today, he .stands confessedly In
tire from rank of his profession.
There 1* no qualification -.oat goes to
make an able lawyer which does not
also tend to ft: Its possessor ua a pre
siding officer. Still, to soim extent, IT
Is trap Hut the model chairman is born
not made. Dr. Mejl, In hli "Manual of
Parliamentary practice," says "the
mental characteristic* necessary to a
good presiding officer are quickness of
apprehension, power ot discrimination,
decision and firmness, coolness and
sell-posse-Stott, dlstnterostectiies*. rev
erence for 'authority, and a fimiUurliy
with the principle* of parlinmeutnry
science.'' Those who know Mr. Hill
well will recognise him quite Instantly
in this verba! photograph of a "good
presiding offloer.”
But 1 there is one remaining quality
simply' Indispensable to him who dis
charges worthily (this high trust. It Is
integrity of character. The speaker

fidence of the entire house In ttn-
rightneee of his intention. To Mr. Hill
thla golden .quality !» accorded most lib
erally by those who have known nnd
tried and trusted him tho longest.
Now, Mr. Editor, as one loving my
native Mate, prising loftily the aaored
trust* within her gilt, and earnestly
desiring to nee them won and worn by
men Intellectually and morally fitted to
adorn them. I shall rejoice to see Mr.
Hill's aspiration for the speakership
crowned w»:h an abundant victory, and
this I say without Intending to dispar
age his honorable competitors.

This Republican* of New York havo
an idea that they will elect their can
ilidtttu for gorernor tills year, and tho
politician* uuiuug them havo the fur
ther idea that the mnu thus elected will
have an excellent ebanco of becoming
the Republican nominee fur president.
Cunsinucntly there is much more of a
scramble going ou among them for tho
gtiberaatorlal nomination. Mr. Levi 1',
Morlou who. It may oc remembered,
was onco vice-president, has come home
from Europe, put himself lu tho bauds
of Ills friend* nud, presumably, opened
Ills barrel. Mr. Choate, tbe famous
lawyer, who is president of tho coustl
rational convention now In session, Is
being pushed by tho more respectable
element ot tho varty for nomination.
Mr. Fassett. who has already felt the
weight of tv big Uemocnul-j majority
piled on him. Is rallying bis forces, and
numerous other politician* of uvoro or
less promtnouco are doing what they
can to attract the lightning.
Muauvvhlliv Uto Democrats aro keep
ing remarkably quiet, but tltcro Is no
evidence that.they are frightened. 1*.
slbty they aro too busy watching and
enJoyUtg tho* show their friends, Ihe
enemy, aro giving to think of their own
affairs Just at present. Whoa tbe
proper time comes,hmvover, wo do not
doubt that rite New York Democrats
will give a good account of themselves.
They may uot be entirely pleased with
tho record made by their party during
the last eighteen months, but they, and
tho people generally, know that how
ever far tho Democrats uuy have fallen
sltort ot what was expected, they havo
absolutely uothaig to hope from tbe
Republicans or Populists. Tho Demo
crats did not move far enough but they
went In tbe right dlivctloa; the other
two parties would, It given power, go
tai tbe wrong direction. This fact vs
not going to bo without effect lu tho
idertloti, nud the Republican vrbo Is
fortunato enough to get the nomination
of bis party ,c New York may after
the rote* are counted tome to tho con
clusion that after all ho was tho uu-
lucklvst member ot his party.
HIRAM WARNER HILL.
To Ut* Editor of tho Telegraph: That
this young Georgian will be the speaker
ot our next house of tofmaomauvee
Is exceedingly'probable. Thu he Is,
tn every respect, quattOed for tht* re-
spoueible position and worthy of It Is
nci. only exceedingly probable but ab
solutely certain.
For the nut eight veers. Meriwether
county ha* honored herself by eendlng
Henry LJbouchcre tn London Truth.
For mutty ceumries the inlttbitauts
ot the bouuau lived tudepenaetu ota.t
toreiga control. The Khedive Lnnatl
onuexed their country. Toe Soudanese
drove ou). the Egyptian*, and we, hav
ing forced tho Wiser to give up till at
tempts to ratnnex ihe country, slaught
ered several thousand of lk* inhabitants
for "rightly struggling to be free." The
Italian*, meanwhile, established them
selves ut Olussawah, a seaport, oa the
Red oat. They have now taken Kue-
sula, a .Soudanese town.
Our JlUguw do uot approve of this,
because, they contend, all the Soudan
belongs to Egypt, and, as, Egypt be
longs to us, me rio.nlin is also ours.
These JibgOM have been periodically
calling upon us to conquer the Soudan,
und, wlTt tlielr usual hypocrlcy they
have urged thla ou the ground tftat the
conquest would be beneficial to Hie tn-
liabituuU. If It be beneficial, and If this
be our onlv aim, then assuredly we
ought, to rejoice that the Italians have
Introduced Into a portion of'the Soudan
tho bkwsluge of Europpun civilization.
This view of the matter however,
does not recommend Itself to the Jin
go*. For u» to lay 1 Kinds on the Soudan
would only be rlgWt and. proper; for
any other European power to do this la
criminal greed. Not believing, myself,
that tlto Soudan would bo a valuable
acquisition, and believing that the
Soudanese are as rightly In possession
of It a* we are of iBuglnnd, 1 should be
glad to think Hut Vt Will remain theirs.
If, however, It is to be cbuqueced, I
trust that either the Frencli or the
ItdHans will underJH’td fl» Disk, and
thus prevent us wasting our money on
so thankless an undertaking. ■
Tula is. of oouree, who unpuitrlotlc as-
pltuitlon ot a "Little Englander," a

Hrat our oaiptre is hardly worih hav

UNDER THE SKIES OF GEOnajA.
I know when summer Ungers,
In loving idleness,
Where -till oho culls to lull her,
the south wind's soft co reties.
She thrills with tender music.
The groves of sombre pines
And forms to luclous ripeness,
The purple muscadines.
Under the skies of Georgia
Is a charm that calls to me.
Of peace and tranquil beauty
And sweet security.
A dream of Indian summer:
Of a wlid-Wtd's song that thrills.
And beautiful Macon reeling—
Asleep 'midet her purple hills!
Under the skies of Georgia
One sleeps who to. dear to me
Forever at rest by vho river
In calm security.
Shine on, oh day* ot eummer;
Under Georgia sktea
And cover his grave In spring-time.
With violet* blue as his eyrtl
I know whence summer linger*
In dreamy lovellnesa.
And enks to emooth her mlumbtr.
The south wind'* soft egresses.
Aral In her gen'roun goodness
The wine ot sunshine spill*.
Makes glad the heart of Macon,
Asleep 'midst her folded hills

PROF. SPENCER'S SENSATION.
His Statement That Gotham Is Sinking
Has Stirred Ud the Animals.
From the Chicago Tribune.
There is no use buying any m'ore real
estate on Manhattan Island or putting
up any more permanent structures, for
all the 'buildings are to be washed -away
and duck* are to paddle about In Madi
son square. Investments In these di
rections arc also pronbunced a little
risky In other part* of the country.
That Is what Professor J. W. Spencer
foreaeea as a. result of the steady sink
ing ot the American continent, which is
going on and which he has accurately
observed and measured. Professor
Spencer Is one ot the leading scientists
gathered in Brooklyn and has only re
cently vacated the qhair of offlclal geol
ogist of the state of Georgia. He made
an address early lit the week before the
American Geological Society, but only
touched lightly upon the sinking of this
continent. In order to oscentln hi*
Ideas more In detail on the aspect of the
question he was seen today and asked
to state exactly how the sinking of the
oontlnent was to affect New York. Pro
fessor Spencer, dlviestlng hi* remarks
of all technical terms, said: 1
"The eastern and southeastern part
ot the continent and the West Indies
were. In recent geological times, from
8,000 to 12.000 feet higher than now,
with great canyons cutting nCroee them
like the canyons of the Colorado bf the
west. This last period of the high con-
tlentl elevation came down almost to
modern times. Then the continent
goadually subsided. »o slowly ns not to
deform and deface the forms of the old
valleys as a general thing, and then
sunk to a few hundred feet below the
present, so as to bring the shbre* of the
Atlantic up to the Piedmont escarpment
and reached up the Mississippi valley
to Illinois. 1
“But at the present time the coast of
New Jersey Is sinking nt 'the rate of
ulbout .two Wat a century. Thatmove-
menit extend* probably Inland to the
mountains. The co.usts of the Southern
states bind Florida Is sinking, as also
itWe coast of the Gulf of Mexico, but
the enovament la comparatively gjow
and not known to exceed a foot a cen
tury. Some points of Cuba seem to be
rising. On tho OBber hand, L»!bn-i
and tho country to the uora is rising
ilt the rate of two and one-half feet a
oentury. The Niagara dlsttrlct Is rising
about a foot and n quarter per cen
tury. but the western end of Lake Erls
Is auitionory.
•'In New York city. Professor Spen
cer went on, "there is no use of making
any more leases for 33 years. The
probability la that by that lime all the
low innda will be under uxttvr. Newark
and parts of Jersey City are not now
more thin two reel above high mm ter,
and tn a couple of hundred years they
will be flooded. The city of New York
le only a tow feet higher and many
parts are exceedingly low.
