A WEEKLY NEWSPAPER, PUBLISHED IN THE POLITICAL, SOCIAL AND AGEICULTURAL INTERESTS 0 F STEWART COUNTY, GEORGIA.
A CARNEGTK UNIVERSITY.
There is no danger that the name
of Andrew Carnegie will be fur
gotten, either in his native coun¬
try or the country of his adoption,
lie is building himself a monu¬
ment that will keep it in the minds
of men for hundreds of years.
He has built free library build¬
ings in many parts of this coun¬
try, $5,000,000 being appropriated
to that object in New York city
alone. He has spent millions of
dollars in building and endowing
an institution in Pittsburg, Pa.,
for the education of youth in me¬
chanic arts. Last summer lie gave
$10,000,000 to the universities of
Scotland, and now be is going to
found a university in Washington,
D. C., which shall be the greatest
in the world.
It is announced that it is his
proposition to purchase the ground,
erect the buildings and provide a
fund for its support. The amount
mentioned for this purpose is $10,
000,000, but it would not be sur¬
prising if he should donate a much
larger sum before he has accom
pliahed the object he has in view
to his satisfaction.
The university will be open on¬
ly to those who want to take a post
graduate course, and it is Mr. Ca^
negie’s intention that it shall take
the lead in original research. His
aim is to make it lead the univer¬
sities of Germany in this respect.
Such a university is needed in
this country. Now a great many
Americans after graduating at
Harvard, Yale, Princeton or some
other one of our universities, take
a post-graduate coursp at a Ger?
man university, the idea being
that something can be obtained in
German schools that, cannot be
obtained In our own. Having such
a university as Mr. Carnegie pro¬
poses there will be no reason for
going to Europe to complete an
education. At the Carnegie insti¬
tution it will be possible to get all
that can be obtained in the educa¬
tional Institutions of any other
country, perhaps more, because the
endowment will be sufficient to at¬
tract the ablest men of the world.
A great institution of learning
at the national oapitul was one of
the tilings which Gen. Washington
had m view, and he left a small
sum of money as the nucleus of a
fund for that purpose. Congress
has not done anything to further
that idea, though it is probable
that it has always iutended to take
the matter up at some time. Doubt¬
less there has been a feeling that a
great university at Washington,
established by the government,
would interfere with institutions
of a similar character already es¬
tablished, but as far as we can see
there is nu good reason why it
should.
We have no d<>ubt that Congress
will cordially approve Mr. Car¬
negie’s purpose, and will do what¬
ever it may be necessary to do to
assist him in accomplishing it.
Washington will become the gegt
of great universities, The Catho¬
lics have already begun building
one there and the Methodists pro¬
pose building one. The Carnegie
university will make the third, and
doubtless others will be built, and
the national capital will become
the educational center of the coun¬
try, and, in the ootirea of a genera¬
tion or two, of the world. Instead
of Americans going to Europe to
complete their studies Europeans
will come to the United States.
This country now leads in agri¬
culture, manufacturing and com¬
merce. The time is not far dis¬
tant when it will be tne world’s
financial center, and will lead in
everything else, including the
fashions.—Sav. Morning News.

Aflrt Tlu» BlMtrt Tiger Winked
His Opaque Eye.
The Telegraph neither advocated
nor opposed (he passage of tho
Wright dispensary bill for the rea¬
son that it was in doubt as to
what would be the practical re¬
sults of jts adoption, One oonsid
oommended it to us—the
broadening of the democratic idea
iii the local option system. If it
is right to permit the people to
vote for licensed saloons, or for to¬
tal prohibition—either of the two
extremes—it would seem equally
competent to trust the people to
vote for a mean condition between
the two extremes. But Mr. Wright
on the one hand openly proclaim¬
ed the measure to be a stalking
horse for prohibition, and the gov¬
ernor on the other denounced it as
a wooden horse in whose bowels
were tanked up dire quantities of
red liquor and snakes. Tiie one
was an acknowledged pretense—a
confessed scheme to slacken the*
grip on personal liberty so that it
may be pulled in again with stron¬
ger hand. The other was a hectic
reach for a popular chord,
If the measure had been urged
as serious attempt to reach a bet
tlemeut of a vexed question upon
a fair, just, temperate hauls, it
would have commanded a more
serious consideration at our hands.
But this was not the avowed pur¬
pose, Umugh it muy have been the
result as many hoped. Neverthe¬
less, the governor’s speech deliver¬
ed when he dealt tho knock-out
blow, was unjust to the author of
the hill. The bright man from
Floyd was offered up to The Most
Holy Smoke in a sacrificial roast.
And the victim turned upon the
vicar. Mr. Wright’s rejoinder to
the governor scintillated with
bright thrusts from a Damascus
blade.
Meanwhile the blind tiger winks

The Farmers and Cotton.
The spurt in the pric? of cotton
only served to further decrease the
already rapidly diminishing sup¬
ply of spot cotton at the South.
While the South is generally on
the bull side of the ’mnrket,^the
Southern farmers have unquestion¬
ably played into the hands cf the
bears at every point this season.
The farmers have gathered their
cotton fast, ginned it fast and sold
it fast. By this course they have
enabled the hears to cause eastern
and foreign spinners to believe
that the crop is much larger than
it is, according to the latest and
moat reliable data.
Two months from now cotton
will probably be gulling at nine or
ten Cents a pound, but the proba¬
ble advance will prove of small
benefit to the Southern farmers,
for the reason that very little cot¬
ton will remain in their hands. As
a matter of fact, any considerable
advance in the price of cotton in
the spring will injure rather than
help the farmers. It will cause
them to forget tho grim spectre of
five-cent cotton which has fright¬
ened them into selling so rapidly
tiie present season and when plan¬
ting time arrives, they will be as
ready as ever to make the same
old mistake of increasing their
acreage in cotton, at a sacrifice to
other crops.
Will the farmer never learn that
his only sure prosperity lies io di¬
versifying his crops? The news¬
papers are laughed at for warning
the farmers so often and so per¬
sistently against the danger of
over-production. But the. newspa¬
pers are right. If their advice had
been taken years ago, the farmers
would now be prosperous and hap¬
py, The South can flourish and
grow rich without raising a bale of
cotton. Our farmers, at least,
should be willing to make such
reductions in the acreage of cotton
us would destroy all danger of
over-production. As long as this
danger exists, the farmer will he as
clay in the hands of the speculator
and that grim spectre of five-cent
cotton will continue to haunt him
in his spleeping and waking mo¬
nte n ts.—Col u m bus Ledger.

ABOUT GAS METERS.
WHY THESE ERRATIC INSTRUMENTS
DO NOT EXPLODE.
Snoli nu Accident Ik No Wore Likely
to Happen to Them Tliun to Milk
Rot I I*‘N or Suit lir.KK— Wlllll Dock
linoiion in Cime or Fire.
j The proneness of the average news
’ paper reporter to nttrlbuic .-.ilar con¬
flagrations to the explosion of gas me¬
ters represents whal iippoais to be an
Ineradicable race trail, No amount of
contradiction and no accumulation of
proot that such an accident is an im¬
possibility seems to reach the news
gatherers, who go on reporting the ex¬
plosion of gas meters, doubtless be¬
cause the (Iremen have a tradition that
meters are explosive and give this ex¬
planation of every lire which they can¬
not otherwise account for.
For tile reassurance of nervous peo¬
ple It gives us pleasure to say that uo
gas meter ever exploded since the
world begun, and until they are made
ou very different plans and contain
gas of very different composition from
that now used for Illuminating pur¬
poses such an accident is no more like¬
ly to happen to them, than to milk bot¬
tles or stilt lings.
The domestic gas meter lias a more
or less well deserved reputation for
habitual uieudnclty. though as likely
to lie ugniust the gas company as for
it; but it lias never done anything to
warrant the suspicion that it is liable
to go off with a bang. It is a tin box
of a little less than one cubic foot
capacity, put together with soldered
seams and japanned.
Into and through it passes the gas.
which enters through the service pipe
connecting tlie main with the house,
usually of half an inch diameter. It
lias very little capacity for gas storage,
and is not stroug enough to carry gas
under a greater compression than, say.
half a pound per square inch. More
titan this would bulge its sides. In
point of fact the pressure of gas in
meters Is rarely more thau enough to
balance a column of water two or three
inches high.
If a gas meter is exposed to great
heat from external Are, nothing very
serious happens. The soldered seams
will probably melt, allowing the gas
to escape. This gas is not explosive,
however. It becomes so only when
mixed with air in certain detlnlte pro¬
portions,
Should this admixture exist in a
meter, which is almost impossible, its
shell is not strong enough to offer any
great resistance, and should an ex¬
plosion 'occur by reason of fire reach¬
ing this admixture of gas and air the
meter would be wrecked, but it is
doubtful of any oilier damage would
result. None has been wrecked from
this cause.
If the seams of the meter are opened
by the melting of the solder or by frac¬
ture from accident, the gas within it
would escape, and. if it had the chance,
burn. Outside the meter il might have
opportunity Hi form the explosive mix¬
ture with air and do some damage.
What actually happens In thu ease
of fires attributed to the explosion of
gas meters is usually this: Gas which
has leaked from defective pipes or
worked into the cellar from broken or
defective street mains accumulates lu
pockets formed by tafters and else¬
where and remains there until it comes
Id contact with an accidental five
of some sort. A fire starts In the cel¬
lar and the temperature gradually rises
until the smoldering rubbish bursts in¬
to flame, This reaches the mixture of
gas and all’ along tiie ceiling and an
explosion follows.
The meter, naturally enough, 's
thrown down and probably torn from
Its connections, and the conclusion Is
reached that, instead of being the vic¬
tim of the accident, the inoffensive me¬
ter is tiie cause of all the trouble and
has indulged Its Inherent propensity to
set the house afire after lifting it from
its foundations.
It Is a perfectly safe generalization
that the gas which makes trouble in
cellars is wholly outside the meter and
never inside of It. Grindstones some¬
times explode with fatal results lti saw
factories, but the excellent old lady
who, after reading of such an accident
and recalling that there was an old
grindstone In one corner of the cellar
which had been there twenty years,
hired a couple of tramps to carry it to
tiie extreme corner of the garden nnd
pour water on it for an hour, mean¬
while giving thanks that It had not
blown herself nnd family into eternity
“unbeknownst to any of us,” was of
the type of those who, through fear of
gas meter explosions, are all their life¬
time subject to nervous chills.
There is not a gas meter in use under
which It would not be perfectly safe
to build a bonfire, provided, of course,
there was not a quantity of gas out¬
side of It which the same fire could
rench.—New York Times.
Why Snow la Not Hlnek or Red.
Why Is the snow white? ts a ques¬
tion frequently asked. Because black
snow would be dangerous; so would
red or yellow. These are “warming
up colors," and they change the sun’s
rays to heat. Such snow would soon
melt again aud prove a very poor pro¬
tection. But white snow throws back
the sunlight in just the form In which
it receives It. and thus the snow can be
long on the ground. Throw dirt cu
the snow and Its dark color quickly
makes it eat its way In whenever the
sun shines on it. After a snowstorm,
once let the horses’ feet mingle the
dirt of the road with the snow and
sleighing will soon be over.—Professo*
