Tho fact Uiat the Inmka tiro overrunning with money whlcdt they cannot lend safely even at Uio lowest rotes does not ncviu to txma.at with tho ollesod foot that money cannot lie obtained with which to do Uio legitimate bust- nous ot tbo country.

There must bo somcUilng lh.it Is not normal, therefore, iu tho oxlsUug ooudKlous. IVUut Is It? Is it not a waul of eoutldeueo In tho fu ture—g feeling op the part of those Who own money that It is better lo forego tho profit that might be inndo In Uio uso of It rather than tnko tho risk of loslug it? There Is plenty of reason In recout experience to Justify such a want ot confidence. Ouly n few years ago tbo l'nnnma canal scheme fell Uirough atfd tho people of lf'njnco lost hundretls ot millions of dollars. Then camo Uio bankruptcy of the Argentine govern ment nud ueorly nil tho ArgeuUno banks. This caused Uio Baring fail ure, which wan felt sit ovor Uio world. Then followed' the collapse ot Uie whole blinking system ot Australia, adding ..ireds ot millions ot lowcw to tho hundreds of mlllloua already lost iu Argentina. Those loasea fell mostly on tho British people, but In these days, wlicu all countries are closely rsaodnteil with each other In business, they woro felt all over Uie world. They curtailed Uio available capital ot tho world to that extent, mul taught the lesson of extreme onutioo to hundretls of thousands of people, for It should bo remembered Uiut they did not fall upon tho rich merely, but also upon tho far mare numerous small Investors wtuxto little capital was tbo result ot careful saving of the proceeds ot their toll. Our own troubles followed, mul perhaiis did more to make capital llmnl than what had gone before, Tho most obvious remedy, It seems to us, Is for our people to do what they can to restore confidence—to make peo ple who havo capital feel that they will not lone If they lend It or Invest It In Industrial enterprises— that tho Lrvr Itself will not cheat them nor per mit other meu to cheat them—that If they loud, they will receive aa good money aa that jrJih.wblgh they parted. TI1B REVOLT IN NEW YORK. The Democrats • of the country at huge hare reason to l>o utterly dis gusted with the Democrats of New York. With an independent Drrno- emtio candidate in the field, the regu lar Democratic ticket k still further ondangerwl. THe situation, from the Democratic point of view. It not hope less la nearly desperate. Mr. Hill cau win only by orereoentug dlfflcolttes that this bolt of tho Independents teems to make Inraratountnble. Tbo revolt of tho Independents is based, ostensibly, on the fact that UIU la tho candidate of the party and on the Tact that they were denied representa tion In tlio party’s convoatloa at Sar atoga, but Mr. Hill did no; want to he the candidate, does not now and ltaa offered to give way to any other man THE MACON TELEGRAPH: THURSDAY MORNING,-OCTOBER 11, 1894 upon whom an agreement could bo reached. Moreover, the nomination had been offend to WUItney and Gay- nor, both Mttsfmffxiry to the independ ents, and had by them boon declined. Aa for their other grievance, Hill did all lie oould to induce tlio convention to Mot Uio reprtstenUiUvos of Uie In dependent* awl lias since, In bis letter of acceptance, declared that ho thinks they, should have been seated. The action of the Independents means, therefore, nothing more than that Utey wish tlie Republican candidal? to. be elected this year. * TTUil can bo the only effect of tfielr Infit If It amounts to anything. They are offered practic ally anything they ask. awl because they find themselves, when Hut J con cession is made, helpless to accom plish anything positive In its nature, they recur to the policy of obstrnctloh. Possibly they may realize that their power Is of the m-ga.Gvo kind only, but raiinot f.ir that reason forbear to use It on every possible occasion. We think Senator Hill’s past otirecr Is open to very sharp criticism, He was guilty of a political crime when he forced the nomination of Maynard in payment of an ohtlgatlon incurred In Uie dirtiest kind of polities, awl thus insured the defeat. If not the disgrace, of Ills iiarty. Ills opposition to the tariff bill, too. was utterly Inexcusable. But bis enemies In Uie party have no Sight to force him to lie the candidate and then desert the party liernusa ho Is the candidate. That is practically what the independent* In New York are doing. They <11*1 not nominate him in the canm,tl<m hut they com pelled him to accept the nominal iou, after long delay,, by foiling or refus.ng to agree upon a candidate to whom he could give way. We think Senator HIU Is entitled to tho support of every good Democrat, under tho existing circumstances, with out regard to past quarrels and fac tional fights in New York, and In spite any errors ho may have commuted 111 the past, lie Is not a "boss” who has seized upon Uie highest prize tho party has to give, but tho strong man wlio Is unwillingly foretsl to the front at a time of the greatest party peril. It seems, however, that Uie Independ ent Democrats of New York arc per- fei’Uy willing to sacrifice the great purposes which It Is Uie mlHslon of the national party to accomplish, rather than allow a man whom they distrust and hate to ho elected to a state ottlce. TILLMAN’S VICTORY. Tho effect of the decision of tlio su premo court of South Carolina iu the dispensary case, reversing Itself, Is primarily to g,vc hard-headed Gover nor Tillman n triumph over his political enemies, lie has proved that be knows bow to get Ids way, even when opposed by Uie highest court to tlio state. The governor, no doubt. Will en deavor lo enforce the law rigorously. An it oonfers upon his constables the right to search private houses, numer ous conflicts mul probably considerable bloodshed ore likely to follow. Public opinion li:m not yet made the keeping of a bottle of wine or other spirituous liquors In one's .House n crime, or evi dence of a crime, mul llic effort to treat It us such’ la sure to be strongly resented, no matter what the law may say.. Thin la bail enough, tiut It Is an evil which la likely to correct Itaolf. The more energetically Uie' governor enforces so tyrannous u law, tho shorter the time during which It will remain on the statute hook, lie will force Its repeal. AH even - more harmful effect of tho decision is the loos of popular respect for the eoort anil for law lit general which It la almost sure to cause. Tho people know perfectly well that tho law which tho court now sustains is in principle tho same ns tho law which It declared unconstitutional less than a year'ago,, They know, too, that tho court reversed itself for political reft- sond-^tbnt tho new member of the court was appointed because he would (unseat to so stultify the eottrt and for Unit reason mainly. The effect cannot fall to bo liad. When the people st>e In the oourta, not Impartial Interpreters of the law, bnt mere Instruments of the dominant political factlou or Indi vidual, tllby will no longer havo re spect either for the courts or the laws they Interpret CRISS-CROSS.

The fair scored a grand success, the largest ertwd that posstby ever assem bled on any occasion In the wlrcgrass section was on the grounds here today. All were pleased and surprised at the highly credfthlble showing made. Peo ple from all directions are here and they have nothing but ipralse for the W'lregrass Exposition. The progM'tnrneo are being carried out to the letter, -and nothing has been advertised, but -whlai: may be seen on the grounds. Hon. PJt Walsh at Augusta ad dressed the ort>wd at the grand stand at 11 o’clock, and the people wore highly elated. Mr. WatSh has many admirers tn this section. He gave Ms views on the silver and itzriff ques tion*. touched on the follfes of the third party doctrine, paid a glorious tribute to Georcfct and her people; touched on the exposition In r» highly complimentary manner and closed amid much applause. The track was in excellent condition and the races fine. The managers have decided to hold the exposition open the balance of the week, closing Sat urday night. There are three more days, and all will be full of Interesting and entertatnlng features. Tho amuse ments are all first class and numerous. Card’s excellent band of Macon Is fur nishing the sweetest music. The San ford sisters, a concert troupe give dUCCy concerts at the park and a t McDuffie's hull In 'the evening, A bright nay of suocess gleams on the enterprise, rfnj tho managers are happy. MACON’S DAY. A Large Crowd Wont Down to the Wlregrass Fair Yesterday. The Wlrcgrass Evposltfon', now being held alt Hawkhtsvtlle, Is' attracting wide-spread attention. Yesterday Was Mahon Day and ta large number of people went down to the fair. Some of them returned last wight loud In their praise of the fair and the podple with whom they met. From several of those who returned the Telegraph learns that the Wire- grass Exposition Is astonishing. That those Who went down expecting to find an average county fatr were very agreeably disappointed. The exhibits are simply wonderful In size, quality and number, white everything Is ar ranged no us to show It off to the best possible advantage. The racing pro gramme (s one of the best ever made for a Georgia fair. Over seventy-five ■horses are entered, and good purses are offered. Many of these horses have been In Macon .for weeks past, and will return In time for the Dixie Fair. One of the features of the fair Is tho fire music, both Gild’s full brass band of Macon and tho Sanford sisters being engagdd. The *rit department is said to be exceptionally fine and attractive, the collection embracing several hundred pictures. ». Tho agricultural display Is aomeihlrig that not only attracto the attention at everybody, but holds It and deeply Impresses thorn with the •wonderful cli mate and soli of Georgia, While the preserves and domestic departments and the needle work department are very complete. The exhibits arc in elegant buildings, erected specially for the purpose and the best of order Is kept. The atten'd-' ance Ik deeply gratifying to the man agement of the fair, and altogether the Indications are -that tho Wire-crass Exposition Is In every particular r. grand success. TO DECORATE THE BUILDINGS. An Experienced and Nated Decorator of Cincinnati Engaged by the Dixie Fair Association. One of the features of She great Dixie Interstate FVtlr will be the decorations of the buildings. The contract has been closed with a decorator of great renown tn Cincin nati. who ts coming in a day or two, for the special purpose of decorating the buildings wRh flags, bunting, etc. These decoration.! will add greatly to the appearance ot the buildings, which oven now. with their fra* ooa'Jngs ot paint, present a handsome and attract ive appearance. The recent rains have been tbe best thing that could have happened to the race track at tbe park, and all that la now necessary is to run the heavy roll er over *t a few time* and R will be In fine condition. The horsemen who have already quartered their horses at the park are greatly pleased with the trqck and suy that tt is equal to any In the country. Work on -the buildings for the Midway ts being pushed rapidly, and already a busy looking, but rather quaint village Is making IU appearance tn the half- mite •track. All of the buildings are being fitted up with electric Rgtrts for night open ings. and the effect of the bright light on the exhibits »1H be grand. The rush now for space by cxhlbltora is so great that General Manager Wad- ley Is in a quandary what to do with many fins exhibits. It ts feared that many fine exhibits will now get crowded oul as space is about all taken up, not withstanding 'Ait the building! are more than three times as large as ever before. Manager Wadley says he Is as signing Just as small space =s possible to etch exhibitor, but that no one ex pected such a rush. The attractions are coming tn by the score, and already tbe elty Is filling up with side efitow anti privilege men who are preparing tn advance so as to be ready for buainera on opening day. Down at the park the seesic is a busy one, and the busiest trvm In Georgia Is General Manager Watlk-v. He ts equal to the emergency, however, and can stand tr. •;>- hard work than « yoke f cxen. The outlook for the opening Is auspicious, sod the Dixie will be the blgjvs; thing ever seen In Georgia. MORRIS PARK R.YCE3. New York, Oct 10.—Tho weather cleared too lato to bring many specta tors to Morris Park today. In tha Hunter handicap all of the likely start ers went to the post and there was a heavy plunge on Nahum to'win. Light- foot waa the second choice, with Bel- demons next. Nahma ran like a dog and was absolutely nowhere, while Bel- demcre, with Taral up, won handily. In the last few Jumps Baroness came fast and got tho eooond place at com fortable ’odds. The Country Club handicap was a good betting race, with Dorian as fa vorite and Banquet second choice. Dorian won easily enough, but Ban quet was unable to get out ot his own way and finished far back In the rear. John Cooper and Boclic hnd a haid strugglo for the place tho former got it by a small margin. IN THE PAVILION. The favorites made an equal divide ot a good programme at Morris Park yester day. Liberal odds were posted against all the winners, except Stonenell In the first, and, therefore, those who followed the “right money" could not have had any the worst of the play. Mr. Swatts’ Dori an won a good race by the smallest kind of a margin and showed condluslvely that he Is entitled to rank among the "top- notehers.” Mqcon has every reason to be very proud of Dorian. 8ho could hardly have a better representative on the turf. With such attractions as Morris Park Is sending out every day. there can be no falling off in the attendance In the pa vilion, and the sport must continue to be gilt-edged In all respects.
