TTIE WEEKLY TELEGRAPH AND MESSENGER, FRIDAY, JUNE 27, 1884.
th®
Th® Atlanta “Constitution" and
Railway Commission.
Waycrozs Reporter.
The Atlanta Constitution defends the
Railroad Commission in its wildest and
most extravagant powers. Whatever may
bs its private opinion of the law which
makes three irresponsible persons the ar
biters of a hundred millions of the people's
property, without api>eal to the courts, or
the shadow of redress for the damacre they
may do; to accommodate the supposed
local interest of Atlanta, the Constitution
will use its influence to prevent a modilk*
cation of the law, end to maintain an in
vasion of the rights of private property,
that may be as rightfully applied to cotton
factories, flour mills, iron foundries and
machine shops us to railroads. Having
decided that the commission is a popular
idea with the people, the Constitution of
course discovers the best interests of the
t>taie to be on that side, and does not care
to see. much less to acknowledge, any
merit on the other side.
But what straits such n position leads
‘ tc i.'i its search for means of defense! As
a forlorn hope it will seize upon any shal
low argument that seems to encourage its
u;v‘aill business, and to discover merit in
a* v species of inconsistency that local or
8'.!,-interest may deem expedient and in-
fu*e with a little zeal ami enthusiasm.
Failing in these, it can misconstrue or mis-
r*'present its opponents, or even falsify the
fe- if, to deceive and mislead those who
3®. to decide the question.
Premising in a recent issue that "the
opponents of the commission in Geor
gia • * * are quietly pre
paring for a campaign in behalf of what
they conceive to be their interests,” the
' Constitution magnanimously owns that "it
is not to be an aggrensive campaign," and
that "there will lie no effort made to abol
ish the commission, to repeal the law or to
mniend that part of the constitution which
makes legislation inoperative.” Hut it an
nounces, "as one having authority,” that
‘‘an effoit and a very strong one. will be
made to render the law inoperative as it
stands by taking away some of the neces-
sarv powers of the commission."
Now just bow the "opponents”
of the commission will proceed without
"repealing the law," to render it in*
operative Dy taking away some of the nec
essary i»owcrs of the commission," the
Constitution has not thought proper to in
form us. The word revision, which gener
ally ends the vitality and therefore repeals
the old statute, seems not to be in its vo
cabulary at this present time; perhaps be-
effuse that Atlanta pool question has not
been settled yet; and the Constitution, it is
presumed, must have a lake of Are and
I tfU;>!one. in spite of its unbelief, for those
wirwd pool men about the Gate City, and
for whom it lias so long had its
■witches cut, dried and twisted at
the ends. It lins a funny belief that
railroad pools are the "iniquitous ina-

on a warm, saury uay caused a leeun
peculiar faintness and oppression in
passerby. This is the effect of the
that Is distilled by the heat and moist
kSncry of unjust discriminations," and
m*. only the "thumbscrew” powers of the
?otumission can abate the evil, as if the
poo’s have not moved smoothly on with
the commission law in full operation.
But there is hope when the Constitution
•wakes np to find that the railroad pool ns
now conducted may thrive in the mildest
commission law ns outside of it; that it
will be less opposed to the modification of
a law which, with all its severity, could
not be made to reach them;
Truly there seems to be no desire to
abolish the commission, or t- repeal the
law in toto by which it was <f 1*4 into ex
igence, for nobody denies taaJVight of a
Sate to regulate its interiiawvnntrs; but
is a strong and rapidly-increasing de
sire to correct the errors of the law, ex
porting tffose objectionable features,
wbi' li. so far from fulfilling the expecta
tions of the people, tend to disturb the
harmony of the state’s industries, to dis
credit and cripple the railroads in opera
tion. to obstruct and retard those in course
of construction, and to endanger the rights
ot private property in general.
bo far from "taking away some of the
powers necessary to the commission,” ex
actly the reverse is the true aim of those
who advocate a revision or modification of
the law. They propose to ”take*away”
only the unnecessary powers of the com
mission, and leave the law and the com
mission intact, to regulate the railroads as
the people designed in the State constitu*
tion.
DISTILLING ATTAR OF ROSES.
The Ro«® Farms In India where th® Plant-
«r® ft®t SI09 nn Ounce for th«lr
Produet.
"Genuine atler of roses," remarked a
jiew York chemist, "which is made in In
dia and Australia, costs 1100 an ounce at
the places of distillation. It takes 60,000
rose blooms to yield an ounce of attar.
They are the common roses, and grow in
great profusion lu California, where the
distillatlou of attar could be made a very
profitable industry. I have teen hedge
row* near Saiuona, in that State, so dense
with these roses that the odor from them
ou a warm, sultry day caused a feeling of

le attar
_ 1 moist air,
aniUsheld *aap«'uded, a» It were, in the
atmosphere.
•• There te money In that cause ol faint
neu and Indolence, but in title country not
only tbo sweetness. but the great value ol
the flaerere.lt waited on the deeert air. In
northern India the rotes era regularly
cultivated. They are planted in roera In
fields, and require no particular care.
When they begin to bloom they are picked
betora mid-day. The work is done by
women and children, who seem to regard
it more a* a pleasure than a pursuit of la-
bor. The rote leaves are distilled in twice
their weight o( water, which le drawn oft
into open vessels. These are allowed to
■tend over night, being covered up with
clothe to keep out dirt and insects. In the
morning the water is coated with a thin
uilytUm. This Is the rare attar o( rosea.
It ts slimmed off with a fine feather ami
dropped into vials. The process contin
ues Sally until the Imshes cease to bloom.
So it may well be Imagined that any es
sence or oil th»t requires th. distilling ol
St.CCO roses to fill an ounca vial has a
right to have a good price set upon it”
Blaine's War Record.
Hera is Hon. Junes O. Ill tine's war
record as given by E. F. FUlsbury, i
Maine, a close neighbor ot Blaine, in
speech in Boston before the Bay 8tate
Club:
He was the first to be dratted in bis dis
trict. Bat prior to that an organization
had been efleeted in Augusta to protect
men against the draft, each member pay

dradti d. Mr. Uitlne out ot that fund hired
a substitute named Bradford. A soft
idace was found for the man to remain at
the post in Aagutta instead ot going to the
front. After a while be waa de
tected In selling for, money certain
certificates and ha waa kept in jail until

Bralne's service In tbe field. (Loud laugh
ter. I After tin war close I, tbe men who
had been drained claimed that the totrna
and cities should pay the expense, they
had been put to. and Augusta generously
voted to pay these men the money they
had paid for subititutee, and Mr. Blaine
got his bond for f2W. But this is not the
end. Afterwards a resolution was pat be-
fore the common council of Augusta
to pay Mr. Blaine 13)0, tbe amount be bad
paid for a substitute, and it was voted and
passed, and he was paid. That you can
rely on at being a true story."

A baseball club went all the way
from Augusta to Columbus, to play a
game of ball, and didn’t make a run.
Now let the members of it quit the

The Cuthliert Enlerpritr says: “The
mania tor gambling is greatly on the
increase. Four pretty girls could not
walk a couple of hours in Atlanta for
the lienefit of the Eclectic College
without a largo number of bets lieing
made. When the Cuthbert walking
match comes off we hope all the gam
blers will stay away.”

heard the “splash” as the little form
struck the water forty feet below.
The mother’s cries of anguish
brought Mr. John Ilaire and
several other neighbors to the spot
Mr. Ilaire was promptly lowered into
tlie well, where ho found tho water
twelve feet deep, and floating peace
fully on its surface was tlie baby, as
sound ami full of life ns it had lieen one
hour before. There the little innocent
lay on tho liosom of tlio water, saved
from a horrible death through some
stranga and unaccountable agency.
Mr. Ilaire was being hauled up witli
the child in his arms, and when about
ten feet from tlie bottom of tlie well
tlie ropo broke and tlio two were dashed
again to the bottom, but sustained no
injuries. Tlio water failed to support
Mr. Ilaire as it did tho haliv, so
both of them went under. He man
aged to hold on to tlie side of tlie wall
until another bucket was lowered anti
tlie two wero rescued from their un
pleasant and dangerous situation.
The most wonderful part of tlie whole
thing is that tlie child did not sustain a
single injury from tlie dreadful fall,
and was bright amt happy last night.
WIio can tell us why tlie little fellow
did not sink when he fell forty odd feet
to tlie deep water below ?
EVERETT STATION.
NOTES FROM EVEKETT STATION—THE
CBOI-S AND OTHER MATTERS.
June 21.—Allow me, Messrs. Edi
tors, to introduce you and your readers
to Everett Station. You may have
may
heard of it before, but a formal intro
duction is in order. Wo have here
post-office, freight depot, railroad ticket
office, church and general store. The
latter is owned by your townsman,
Professor IT. D. Williams, who is a
man of fine business sense and a big
heart. We need a freight agent and a
petition is being signed to that end,
Tlie merchants of Knoxviilo and the
country merchants between here and
there would all ship to and from
this point. Already enough freight
is being received hero to
justify an agent. Cotton is
sometimes wagoned within two or three
miles from here to Macon, simply be
cause there is no one to receipt for it.
The railroad authorities may claim
that they will get tlie cotton, anyhr
when it gets to Macon, but they m
remember that every wagon that carries
cotton to Macon brings back more or
less freight that tho railroad would
otherwise get. Sjyo or six hundred
bales of cotton worth! lie shipped from
this point with nn agent here.
Crops are good, in this section. Some
of our river planters had somo ot their
corn damaged by the recent freshet.

Equalization of Tniee.
News and Advertiser.
There was not m moro imp
irtant
unpoi
measure before tlie last Legislature
than the measure looking to the equal
ization of oar {ax assessments. Its
failure to become a law reflects no
credit upon onr law makers. So doubt
many people misunderstood its real
significance, and demagogues took ad
vantage of tide error and made them
livlieve that tho law proposed was only
a trick to take away from the people
the right of fixing the valuation of
their own property. Tbe bill was lost.
Since the adjournment new develop
ments have been made. Inveatiga:
tions of the tax receiver’s
books and the comptroller-general’s re
ports exhibit a state of public morals,
on this subject that is truly appalling
to an honest man, and especially when
he is doing all he can to place the State
upon a true financial basis, and bring
it to s condition which will insure pros
perity and solvency for all time to
come.

June 21.—Tho continued rains last

Cotton is small and looking very

The McDuffie Sunday-school associa
tion held its annual convention at this

reported in a good condition, and the
Sunday-school cause is progressing.
Dr. Adams, of Augusta, delivered a
very eloquent and impressive address
on tlie necessity of taking children in
the church ami raising them up under
religious influences. Messrs. Wallace
and Law, of Augusta, also addressed
the convention. Mr. T. M. Pool, of
Warren county, delivered a very lino
temperance speech in tho evening.
The prohibition question is giving
quite an impetus to politics in this
county. We havo a prohibitory law
that lias been in force for several years.
A candidate is out for tlio Leglslatuse,
who is in favor of repealing the law.
The friends of prohibition have not
put forth a candidate yet, but I suppose
will, ns there is already considerable
feeling manifested on tho question.
The race bids fair to bo hotly con
tested, and a very bitter one, which
to bo regretted by all good citizens.

PROHIBITION QUESTION—AN AD
DRESS BY JUDGE LESTER.
June 21.—Tho question of prohibi
tion will be submitted to tho voters of
Pike county on the 10th of July next.
The advocates of the measure are hope
ful, and working in a quiet way;
while some of its strongest opponents,
and others who havo been indifferent
are lieing won over, and will voto for
it, at the coming election. There are
only two places in tho county tlint
are not under tlie prohibition law al
ready, Barne8vi!lo and Zcbulon. Tho
results oi prohibition here havo been
nil its most ardent advocates honed,
there enn be no question of this fact.
Tho. ahseneo of drunkenness, profani-
ity, and other vices that follow drink
ing, with tlio improved moral tono
oi all classes, would impress this fact
on a stranger.
Rev. W. II. Cooper, of Cuthbert, will
ireach hero on next Sunday at tho
Japtist church, on tho subject of tem
perance. Judge Lester has consented
to address tho people of Pike on tho
subject of temporanco and prohibition
at this place on Saturday, tlie 5th of
July, when a large crowd U expected
to bo present, and arrangements are
being made accordingly.
The weather recently has been very
favorable to the growing crops, having
had several days of bright sunshine
since the recent rains, and the crops
are being worked rapidly and well and
are as good as could bo reasonably de
sired.
