While Sinkers Brawl the Public Suffers. I .oat March the nmmiKcniuiit of tho Atlanta, Birmingham anil Atlantic roll ronil served nollco upon its cinploycns that, owing In a heavy ilccreiiso it) both freight and pnaBcngar traffic and a still heavier incroiiHn in operating expenses, it would be forced to put into effect a wage scale that would enable the road to operate with Home chance at least of earning expanses. This nouncemeilt was accompanied by n state ment from tlie general manager of the system showing that, while tho shale proposed was not aa high ns that in offoet during the war period, it still was about NO per rent, higher than the H“ulo pnid prior to tho war. The reduction wns not agreed to by tho employees, all of whom seem to have been affiliated with ono or another of tho several rail road brotherhoods; so when tho railway management sought to put (he now senlo Into effect they struck, and arc Htill out. Meanwhile, shortly after tho strike began the railroad was, upon the petition of creditor intorosts, pi need in tho hnmlo of n receiver., and the re ceivership is still in force. Meanwhile, also, now men were employed to fill tho positions vacated If) the strikers, This necessitated a curtailment of tho sorvlco a number of trains formerly operating on rogulnr schedules being discontinued •—mainly for reasons of safety. We say “for reasons of safety,” because dur ing tho strike period it is reported that no loss than thlrty-threo attempts lmvo been made to derail trains, dynnmito the roadbed, burn trestles, and inflict other damage upon the ■ road. In July, at Fltr.gornld, an engineer wns shot, from ambush while on his engine, and Iioh Hinco died. A oouple of weeks ago, at Manchester, two residences occupied by present employees of tho road woro de stroyed by flro. Those llros occurred between midnight, and day, and on tho •same night. A fow days later, nonr At lanta, n^ freight train wns dynnmited, causing tho dentil of the englneor and his 'fireman. Of course, tho railway brotherhoods disclaim any responsibility for thoso outrages. As n federation they may bo entirely guiltless, and doubtleHH are, but that ' certain lawless momboi>j of the brotherhood nro guilty of these dastard ly crimes is so obvious ns to leave no room for doubt. No one would deny to liibor the right to orgnnizo for its own protection, and that all fair demands labor may make should linvo equally fair consideration is freely conceded; but in resorting to violoneo to onfovco those demands labor organisations lose the sympathy and forfeit tho respect of the public, and tho public is always n forco to bo reckoned with. Just now the public served by the A., B. & A. road is nhnighty tired of brawling strikers J>nd a crippled train service, and has -about reached tho limit of its patience. 'One of these days before long it will tise up and do something. A public carrier has a serious and important duty to perform, and, all- else failing, tho public will undertake by definite meth ods to see that it gets the service' to 'which it is entitled. be mi uphill fight,, more Is the pity one in which he is receiving sonnt sup port from the better element of tho com munity.

J. A. R. CAMP. Ordinary. GEORGIA—Coweta, County: H. C. Pitts having applied to the ill Gehonnn. Still, J, J. Brown nnd his outfit mnunged to lobby an incrensc of appropriation for this nppondage, while funds for the common schools, the State Sanitarium and other nouessary institu tions of tho Stato, wore out to a pittance. The Crnwfordville Advocate-Democrat bus some views upon the same subject, and says: “Now that J. J. Brown, Commission er of Agriculture, has succeeded in lob bying tho Legislature into giving him an 'ucronso of $65,000 per year for his market bureau’ of the Department of Agriculture, we presume he will begin at once appointing more oil inspectors and other nsoless officeholders in order to fix up his fences for next year’s race to%mcoood himself. Every membor rf the Legislature who voted" for that ap propriation, while voting nt tho same time to cut the common schools of Qeor gin n quarter of a million dollars, should hang his bend in slmmc. Such notion wns simply inexcusable. "Tlie Asylum for tho Insane at. Mil- led go ville has been compelled to refuse admission to nay more pntionts because of n lack of funds to take enre of them As a consequence those recently adjudged insane will have to ho kept in the county jails until some plan to care for them can lie made. This is a pitiful condi tion for the great Stato of Georgia to Tie in—minlilo to care for its imfortu nates. Tho members of tho Legislature must feel nslmmod that they failed to take care of this institution.—Spring Held Herald. But how could tlie Legislature take * eare of this institution*hud in the same "appropriation bill provide adequately for the maintenance of Commissioner Brown’s “State Bureau of Markets,’ so-called? The Hardwick-Brown Logie laturc hns much to answer for, hut to appropriate $100,000 for the “ upkeep ’ <of this utterly useless department, and ■refuse a like amount for tlie care if tlie ifour thousand unfortunates at tlie State Sanitarium, was an atrocity that the people will not forgive or forget. We don’t know Luther Williams per- actually, but lie has our sincere felicita tions upon his victory over tho machine candidate for tho mayoralty of Macon in Wednesday’s primary.
