It takes oorasion [to express its gratifica
tion that Governor Gordon bag addressed
himself to this important matter. The day
chosen for this latitude is eminently proper,
bat is too close at hand to expect much for
this season. Of course the selection made
by Governor Gordon is merely saggostive.
It carries with it no authority, and the peo
ple can observe it or not, as they may choose,
lint the Legislators can icinforce his action

arbor day and requiring the tax assessors to
report how many treea or shrubs

day tuny ba mads a holiday
for school children, and it
this way a growing interest may be awnk

few trees ot the proper kind in our cities,

There was a limitation in the bill which
gave suffrage to those women only who
owned $250 worth of property. As there is
no limitation to males, it has been charged
that the House had thus declared women to
be $250 inferior to man. * What
the Senate means by iu vote
cannot yet be ascerUined. It may
have been a gallant protest against the un
dervaluation of tlie ladies; it may have
meant that the limitation was too small.
Depend upon it, however, the worse con
struction will be chosen and the female
lance will be couched in the next election
against every Senator who said “no" to
woman's political prayer. It certainly is a
striking illustration of our political system
that six men have been able to withhold
suffrage from 1115.39'.) people—half the pop
ulation of the State.
In the meantime can any one tell why a
r.-fined, educated and intelligent Vermont
lady is not as apt to vote correctly ns the
booby who licks his fingers about the sugar
maple camps?

In the meantime, householders in our
city and our city fathers may be reminded
that the season Is favorable for trimming
shade trees, and that the appearance of
Macon may be much improved by atten
tion to this duty.

From Our Exchanges.
Thomasvillb, Ga., November 21.—Col.
James D. Sewanl, upwards of 70 years old,
died at his residence here to-day from a
stroke of paralysis, from which ho has been
ill for nearly a week. For eight or ten
yeara he has been a great sufferer from
rheumatism, unable to walk, and his roller
chair has been a familiar sight in Tbomas-
ville daring that time. Ho was born in
Laurens county and moved here when quite
a young man. He represented this county
several times in the Legislature, and was a
member of tho first Lepidatnre that met in
Milledgeville after the war. He represented
this district in Congress in 1853 and was
re-elected in I860, defeating Frank
Barlow. He was also a member
of the constitutional convention of 1877,
and one of the trustees of the State Univer
sity. His polities were somewhat like Joe
Brown's—when one side did not please him
he got on the other side. After the war lie
seems to have liked neither aide, and took
no prominent part in politics. He was of
an aggressive, combative temperament, and
as a lawyer had no equal in this part of the
country. His power of repartee was re
markable, and was mercilessly used in the
court hers. Since be ha* been suffering so
much from rheumatism, he has not prac
ticed bis profession at all. His funeral will
take place to-morrow.
