Ilacoii'a spool'll of tn« n.glit be- fore wae of a character to drive ••otca ftway from him, lint we tltluk tlwto ts no reason whatever for h.s fr.cuds to fear this result. The speech wild an niiie one, und thorn was nothing in it to surprise or disappoint any of those who hud been Riving h.tn the.r support. H. s position on both die groat qttca- Hons itlneciwcd hml before lieon stated from the slump In every part of tioor- Kin, less elaborately, perimpa, but not loss distinctly, and Ihcro was no chance for members of Hie loi.ala'urc to sup port him through tt mlsunilemtnml.ng of It. Il.s position on tile silver quos- tlon is such that thu Telegraph, earn estly In favor of bimetallism, can con sistently support him. We believe It Is such a position dint any Democrat who .* a real frit-ijil of s.lvur, and who dcs.Tcs to see It current cquuUy with gold ns u part of thu money of the country, cun do the suuio thing.

His speech wns not u showy one; was not Intwndtrt to lie. But It was worthy of n man who ranks among thn ablest of Georgians, and who was scenlug not to mukn n display of hit oratorical abilities, hut to make plain his position on the main political Issues of this day. lip was successful In doing tins and Ida posit,on wus satisfactory, being the Name a* that assumed liy him durlug tlm pro- I. lummy oampa.gu, when lie gained the support which now declares for'lnm nmoug the legislators. or ueUiodaof arbitration that Is not l.atiie to work Injury, either to labor er to capital, or to both.

The prosperity of capital cannot continue without Hie prosper.ty of labor, nor «an there exist prosper ty lu labor unless there Is prosperity :.n 'apttal. What affects one attcets Hie other, and the laboring musses In th.s country are beg,lining to llnd on* Ibat they cannot live without the employ ment of ejp.tal. And they are lidding out another thing—that the eases are exceptional where there Is any d.spo- sltlou on the part of capltul to opprcai labor. H'« trust that the IcMuiis that have been so frciiuenlly (dupBasAtbd of late by the contests between labor and capital w.U bear wholesome fruit aud that Hto day .a taut approaching in this country when mutual 1 merest* be tween labor and capital will be so tlioroiiKbljr recognised mat there wdl bo no longer auy oceavtu fer such str.kcs as ivc have had during tile pres ent year. THE STIUK13 AT PALI* RIVER. The sirlko at Kail River has ended- disastrously for thu strikers. They havo lost about a million aud n'htilf dollars la wages, besides having con- ► umod whatever cash thou- ofgau.sa- tlona held in their treasure* For eight weeks stone twenty-three thous and operatives havo been thrown out of euploymont, and these havo now had to return to work at the reduced seals of wages offered them iu the first place. The lesson ot this efr.ko 1s the Icvsou that has been nUpbas.xed over and over agata in the coutests lie tween tabor anil capital. Tho o\w ntives lu thla ease, after vainly pro- loagiug the contest, have had to yield to '.uu iueritabla, a . Tills tpiest-on brings up' the oft- ruooteil question ot settling these con tests between labor and capital by bn filtration. Labor has conetautly been UeuuindxiR nrUtrat.on tu such eases. Capital bos answered always that there was uothjjg to arbitrate. The mass of tho people, who are simply Inter tested Id having some equitable settle ment of the question, havo looked on. cousr.oua that (hero could be but odd result lu these contests, and yet hap.ng that some way might bo opened for th» proper solution ot thu problem, tt seam* lo be one ot thoso questions which cannot be settled by law. Labor unquestionably baa iu rights, but cap ital also has its rights. For tho law to Interfere would necessarily put lim itations upon tho rights of ono party or thu other. Suppose, for instance, them should be a law enacted requir ing cep.tal to aTb.trato with labor. If the board of arbitration legally con stituted should decide the question aga.utl capital, the owners of the inilU iu such cases motht be unable to openit their mills and pay the arbitrat ed pr.ee to Ubor without deauncuou to the.r iuvetunent. Suppose, on the other baud, the board of arbitruticn should dec.de against labor? In what way could capital force labor to work at jhe reduced prices, unless labor vol- untar.Iy' decided to accept them? Bo it seems that there eaa be no eyetem TffWY AIUJ PAYING THKHt DEBTS Thu banks und cunnnlsslou merchants repurt (hat tno farmer* are meeting tb«ir obligations tbs foil as well or bettor than ever before.

Fortunately for most of tUem they hare made an abundance of pro- v.slons of all k.nds to supply lliclv ram ifies and Umr farms, llut tho cotton motley has been consumed in paying for cost of producing tho cotton. They have Miuply lost all the labor and time devoted to cotton. This fact is itsetr a m ot suggestive one to the farmers of I h.s country. llut wo tfid not start out to make suggestions to our fnrmiug friends. Wo simply desired to commend them most heartily for meut.ug Utu.r obligations so promptly. Many of them, we uro told, are anticipating the.r papers— many luivo paid them luug before they were due. They deserve all praise. No claw of men aro more deserving of confidence and sympathy. The mi,- ventyl test.mouy of the bunks in .Ma con is that tho farmers’ paper Is tho moat dcs.rablo paper Hie bunks can hold. They should not bo dtshearleacd because of tho low price ot cotton or any other unfavorable fenturo or the year.

It is absolutely necessary that this step be taken and the fair di rectors regret that inconvenience as keenly as can thoso who suffer from it. SHORT TA.LK.s5 WITH MANY PEOPLE.

If European nations nre to Interfere to save the Cliluwo empire from pos sible disruption, it Is about tluio they were gott.ng to work. It Is now evi dent that, though tho most populous of emplrvo aUd possessed of groat wealth, China is absolutely helpless In conflict—even with a. third rate power, and can ho sated only hy the lutorveu- tlon of other powers anxious to pre serve the status quo. it Is very likely that wtufin a few days or weeks tho new* will couie that European nations have Intervened, compelled Japan to ■top tho advanco of her aruv.es, aud suggested tho grounds ou which nego tiation for peace shall proceed.

I met blm on Fourth street yesterday and he mopped me with the Interrogatory: "Do you know what I am going to do tonight?" I told him I did not and was not concerned enough to ask- "Well." said he. “I am going to Rose,Hill cem etery -and sleep'on my father's grave." "Better take along a few blankets ami an umbrella." I suggested. "I have neither blanket* nor nn umbrella." said ho with a sigh: “but 1 will sleep tuts night on my father's , grave,"" AVlth this, he gave me a stony stare w.lh Ills watery blue eyes that made cold chills creep over me. He moved on and I am Just a little curious to know what became of him. , 'Politics over In Jones Is all right." said Judge Roland .T. Ross of Clinton yesterday.

Wilcbx was going to the performance of Ponmeli on one of the Consolidated oars, when a lady in charge of a number of young girls hoarded the car. Cant. Wilcox, who is a gentleman to the manner born, not only gave up hi* seat, but assisted tho lady ob.voerone in seating the ypung la dles In her care. Finally, all were seat ed except the chaperone. There wns one man tn Ihe car. a bookkeeper, who re fused to surrender hi* seat tu the chap erone. Ca-ut. AVIlcox molttriy asked him to give -the lady his seat, but he refused, whereupon Capt. Wilcox made him get up. took his name, and, presenting him with one of his ravrds. told him where ho could bo found next day. Up to last night. Capt. Wilcox had not received a visit from the man or his friends. The Telegraph stated a few days ago that Mr. Eugene Benton of MonticeUo had stated he could raise cottim at S cents and make money on It. Mr. Ben ton mad* the statement, but a postal oard from him yesterday states hat af ter thinking the mutter over he find* that he cannot make money on S cents cotton. Mr. Dan Crossland. formerly of Ma con. but now one of tho most brilliant legal lights of the Savunnuh bar, ar rived In the city yeriterday to see tfcs Dixie Fair, and says many other Sa vannah people are coming.

AVawhlngton, Oct. 30.—The eontractjga for *the dredging and Improving of tho^F Harlem river. New, York, will bn awarded <o Rlttenhhuse R. Moore of Mobile, Ala., by the war department. When proposals for doing the work were opened the bid of Mr. Moore was found to be considerably lower, th.-m -those of his competitors, tho next low est being that of a Now;York firm. The engineer's office at New York, after examnlng the -bids, forwarded them to Col. Casey, -chief of engineers, with the recommendation that (ho bid of the New York.flrm be accepted. He suggested that the bid of Mr. Moore ■was Informal because of two Irregu larities. Col. Casey examined the bids and Indors'd tho recommendation of the New York engineer and sent the papers to the secretary of war In this shape. Senator Pugh of Alabama heard of the objection to the bid of Mr. Mooro and saw Col. Casey about the matter. Soon after the senator’s visit, Cel. Casey reconsidered his action, struck out bis approval of the New York officer and returned the matter to the secretary with the recommendation that Mr. Moore be awarded the con tract. This Is proba-by the first time that a firm so far South has succeed ed in securing such a large contract in New York. DO YOU INTEND TO BUILD? . If So.
