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* willing to do su for reasons already given. rer. During tire six months end ing -lane 30, EnglandV-xportcd to India Si 0,500,000 of silver find to Asia $73,- NL000. 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? I 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.

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.
