HELPING THE POPULISTS.
THE SUGAR JT,ANTKltS.
The revolt of the sugar planters
against tlte Democratic party is per
haps a fortunate intng, ift that It re
lieves the uarty of any obligation to
take care of them. Two os three votes
>f) congress may. be. lost by It, but tlio
majority Is hardly-' ever so narrow as
that, and a majority lessened by two
oi- three Louisiana votes will be
stronger than if It had them, along with
the harden of their demauds for pro
tection. There ought to h® a duty on
sugar, because such a duty- puts more
money In the treasury tliau any other,
hut it ought not to be any higher than
the needs of the treasury require. That
is to say, It ought to be purely a rove-
jiuu duty, and this It will never he so.
long as the sugar plauters of Louisi
ana can prevent It.’ Like nearly nil
other persons In whoso pockets the tar
iff puts money," they nre protectionists
and their, interest In the duty is npt
that of the general treasury lu which
everybody Is Interested. !•> ’’ ‘
,-At the same* time It is likely that.the
sugar plauters have made u political
mistake, lu the first place, they havo
deprived thediselves of the sympathy
of Democrats by showing that they
have been Democrats for revenue to
themselves only. Controlled entirely
.by selfish! considerations, (hey caiwot
very well hereafter urge (the general
welfare as an excuse for tlib legislation
they desire, for everybody will doubt
their honesty In doing so. In the sec
ond place, they have little or nothing
to expect from the Republican party.
Tliat party is oommitted to free sugar,
and It will never again venture to pay
n bounty after Its recent experience.
There was never a more uupppulats
feature of a fiscal system. The Repub
licans havo absolutely nothing to (jaln
by revising it, now that tlio sugar
planters have joined tnein, and very
much to lose.
Tile fact is that tho protection of su
gar is gone forever, In our opinion, ex
cept that Incidental protection which
comes from a revenue duty, and the
planters would do well to devote tliclr
energies in polities to saving that.
There is a difference of opinion In-the
Democratic party on the silver, ques
tion. but we believe that difference has
been grossly exaggerated by men and
newspapers who either wish to make
of It a question that will divide the
party, or who, having uo convictions
themselves, nre always willing to yield
whatever is demanded of them.In the
hope of placating opposition and gain-
lug votes. We say the difference has
been exaggerated because we believe
that a vast majority of Dem
ocrats want sound money—by
which we mean money worth
Intrinsically what it pretends to Do
worth—and will reject, when they un
derstand It/ any scheme that will result
in a depreciated, fluctuating currency.
We lVinly bplleve'the^frce coinage of
Silver at'a ratio less than that'jlxcd by
the markets avoulil result hi such a cur
rency, but our purpose at this time Is
not to deni with that question, but
with the question of policy, from a? par
ty standpoint, of advocating free coin
age ou such terms. It seems'to us that
the man or newspaper which ar/juto
for free coinage at the 10 to 1 ratio, or
any ratio which docs not insure a sounu
bimetallic currency; must necessarily
make converts to the Populist party
to tlio extent that the arguments nre
convincing. This Is true beenuso the
Populist party is the ohly party which
favors froo coldago ou such terms. Tho
Democratic party does not and tho Re
publican party does not. Both of theso
parties, we believe, favor bimetallism,
but the first Is active In Its efforts to
bring about the conditions which will
make bimetallism possible, while the
latter Is apathetic, If Its controlling
forces do not actually lean toward tho
gold standard.
We think tho demonetisation of sliver
by the chief commercial nations of the
world has hua very serious conse
quences. But tho newspaper or politi
cian who loses sight of tho fact that
the great object to be attained Is tho
restoration of bimetallism and not
merely to secure the free coinage of
silver plays Into the hands of the Pop
ulists. Free coinage does not mean bi
metallism, as the experience of many
nations shows. It Is only free coinage
under substantially .the same conditions
all over the world that means bimetal
lism, as experience also shows.
The Populist Is froo to ndvoento freo
coinage at 10 to 1 because he does not
belicvo In bimetallism or monometal
lism or any kind of metallism, lie Is
flat money man, and advocates free
coinage at 10 to 1 because he sees In
the Just method of breaking down the
present currency system, as a prelimi
nary to establishing a flat money sys
tem. Gold monometallism, silver mon
ometallism and bimetallism arc eqnally
foreign tp .his notion of what U right
mid expedient. In appearing as the
champion of silver monometallism, or
of free coinage at 10 to 1, which he uo
doubt understands to he the same
thing, therefore, the Pdpulist is subject
to the accusation of Insincerity. He
pretends to seek a certain end, but In
fact the object which he seeks Is mere
ly a means to an end. But If this be
Insincerity, It is also sharp politics.
The Democrat who advocates free
coinage at 10 to 1 may do so Ignorantly,
or he may be a man who, while he
clings to the Democratic name and as
sociations, has adopted the Populist
theories of finance. In either case
is helping the Populist cafcse, for the
reason the Populist pdrty Is the only
party which can ever be expected
open the mints to the free "coinage of
s.lver at the 10 to 1 ratjo without an
International agreement That party 1*

given.

Tlio resignation of Mr. Marlon W.
Harris front, the state Democratic ex
ecutive committee is hardly.so,satisfac-
tory to the Populists sluee Ids explan
ation was given to the pubbe. He Is
about as far from being a Populist as
possible. ‘ It Is now In order fdr the
opera which haye misrepresented him
to do him the justice of giving his ex
planation of his conduct to their
’reside!*.
THE MEXIOAN EXAMPLE.
The Two Republics, of the City of
Mexico, says:
"During the first six months ot the
present fiscal year more than aw.ixw per-
slept In the publla dormitory In tne
city, or to be more correct, me number
of lodgings furnished during that period
amount to more than 300,000. To De sure
It may be taken for granted that many
persons slept there many times ana some
persons probably every night. But even
under these circumstances the number
seems very large, institutions p? -tins
kind are not established tor the bonent
of habitual beggars or tramps, . and it
would be well for the managers to have
those who make a habit of sleeping there
every night arrested and sent to asylum
or Institutions where they can be given
work during the day. It this be /done
there will surely bo less begging, and, pus
slhly less stealing, Sone on the arrests?
If pauperism were us prevalent in
Georgia -the police stations of Atlanta
would he cnljed upon to provide lodg
ings for about 150,000 hoiueljsks people
a year. Yet-the Atlanta Constitution
has daring recent months frequently
held up Mexican finance as an object
for American admiration. Wo have
been told by It that the silver monetary
system of Mexico affords encourage
ment to -Mexican Industry and thereby
enriches the country. Wo would like
to know who gets tho lnereused wealth
when in the capital city 600,000 home
less people apply In a ycqr to the pub-
Jlo nuthoriti6s for shelter. Is It. possi
ble tlmt the panic struck Mexico, too.
In spite of/the fact tnat there Is Dot a
gold dollar In circulation In the country
mid the coinage of silver Is unlimited?

THE SENATORIAL RACE.
assed By the Brooks Teachers' Insti
tute at Quitman.
Quitman, Sept. 15.—(Special.)—Re
solved, .by the teachers of Brooks In
institute assembled, That the presence
of the Hon. S. D. Brudwcll, state school
oomiulsaoucr, in our mids was a source
of pleasure anil profit. That we be
lieve him to be thoroughly conversant
With'the duties of bis office; that the
cause of education has been greatly ad
vanced liy reason of his skillful and
faithful disonarge of the duties of the
high office he holds; that we most hear
tily Indorse his administration an earn
estly urge the Hon. \V. Y. Atkinson to
reappoint him to his preseut position.
Second, That the present outloo-k
for common schools, requiring as it
does the cessation of all public schools
lu ouh.county until the 1st of July next.
Is unsatisfactory to the people and to
us; tlmt we see but our soiutmu to tue
problem, and that Is tlmt tho legisla
ture ina-Uo n special appropriation
$300,000 for tho purpose of renewing-
our schools next spring, ns we have
been accustomed to do; that we urge
our stato school commissioner to mem
orialize the legislature to grant this ap
propriation nml urge our senator and
representative to use their influence in'
passing the same.
Third, Thnt we believe the cause of
education Is advancing wonderfully In
our county; thnt wo feel our Institute
has been a pleasure nml a- benefit to
nil, and feel \hnt we are to be congrat
ulated on Its success.
Fourth, That wo thank Mr. Lee W.
Branch, expert? for the skillful manner
In which he lias oomluctcd our Insti
tute.
Fifth, -Tlmt thanks lie extended to
our efficient commissioner, S. S. Bcu-
r.ett, for his hearty co-operation nml
sympathy with tho efforts of the teach
ers of Brooks county 111 their efforts to
advance the cause of education.
Hon. S. D. Bradwell, state school
commissioner, delivered an nlile address
ou cduenttoft at tho opera houso last
night. The audience paid the closest
attention and seemed to be heartily la
sympathy with the ideas of tho speaker.
BACON WILL BE THERE.
From tho Baxley Bauucr. . .
'MaJ. A. O. Bacon, who will doubtless
bo honored us the next United s-ffitel'
senator; Is booked to deliver au adores]
here on September 17. Tlio major.Is i
rattler when it.oom.es jo lmmlliug tlij
great questions of the day, aud all whj
attend will hear something’grand.
ATKINSON AN'I) BACON.
The Democratic nominations f {or the
legislature are now all made, itl’d It
scents to us more certain than ever that
Maj. Bacon will bo elected. Of course
It Is impossible to say positively, liut
we believe he is tht? choice of a major
ity of the nominees’ for the house and
senate, having greater strength than nil
three of his opponents. He has
least a very long lead over any one of
them. Such a lead, Indicating the
choice of the people, ought to mean his
election, even if tho first balloi elr/ld
result In no choice.
Wo think the state ought to lie con
gratulated on tho promised outcome of
the race. It can expect, In tho event
of Maj. Bacon's election, not merely
capable service in Its behalf In tho sen
ate during the next six years, hue cveu
brilliant service, Impressing Itself upon
the mind of the nation. Such service
Is needed at a time like th.s, when
men's minds are prone to waodcr from
old American political Ideals nml there
Is danger of n drift of our government
toward un-Dem-x-rUlc paternalism.
The heavy exports of silver from the
United States during the past year arc
attracting considerable attention. Tho
exports for tho year catling June 30,
1804, exceeded the imports by $37,000,-
000, while the total exports of tbo-thrgc
years previous exceeded the imports
lty $33,000,000. On the other hand, the
gold exports of 1804 exceeded the Im
ports by only ($4,500,000, against an
excess of $156,000,000 for tho three
years previous. In these figures the
financiers can sec a confirmation of the
“Gresham law,'.’ In that prior to the re
peal of the Sherman silver purchase
bin- gold was driven out of the country
whereas, on tho other hand, since the
repeal, silver is being driven out. It
Is a fact also to be noted that the balk
of the silver exported from the country
goes to England, which. In turn,
exports it to India and Asia. During
tlio seven months ceding July 31 Eng
land took from ibis fcotinlr/. $18,750-,-(W0
