The Appeal to the Railroad Commission. In our issue ol yesterday we pub lished, without comment, an appeal, signed by every railroad manager in the State,to the Commission, askingan increase of rates upon flour and grain. This appeal Is accompanied by a table showing the difference in tbe rates on these articles under “Commissioners’ rates" in Georgia, and an one railroad on each of eleven other States. The fact la developed by this table that the average charge in Georgia for grain per 100 miles is 7 cents per 100 pounds, while in the other eleven States the rates on grain rango from to 37 cents. On flour in barrels the Georgia rate is 15 cents per barrel for 100 miles,while in the other eleven States the rate ranges from 20)<j cents 74) j cents for the same setvice. A significant feature in this case is that in Ohio and Illinois, two great grain and flour States, where the ton nage on these articles is many times greater than in Georgia, rates are about one hundred per cent, higher than on our Georgia roads. One of two things must he true in reference to these dis crepancies : either rates are very much too high in the other eleven States, or very far below what is just and reason able in this State. It may be that the Georgia .Railroad Commission will assume, as did the one man on the jury wlro could not make the other eleven accept his con clusions touching the case that had been submitted to their decision, that other States are simply contrary in ref erence to freight rntes. It must, how ever. strike every man ol intelligent and unbiassed judgmont that whero the weight of experience of eleven States is against the rulings of our commis sion, that tbe chances are at least eleven to one that the commission of Georgia, with all at its wisdom and ex traordinary powers, has inflicted by its arbitrary action the most cruel injustice upon our railroad property. This conclusion will he strengthened by the array of facts submitted to the commission in the summing up of the managers, which accompanies their appeal. It gains additional force from the fact that these men of known in tegrity and character are forced in tho face of impending disaster to the great interest they represent, to renew their application for a change of rates. What the commission will do a matter that the future must de termine. There can be no donbt its duty in the premises. Failure to perform this duty will add another striking illustration of tits dan gerous powers with which it has been invested and emphasize the necessity for their modification. We have no apology to mako to the Railroad Commission for the position of this paper upon the law under which It was formed and Is acting. The lsw confers supreme power over sixty mil lions of valuable, useful and in dispensable property upon three men who aro not responsi ble to anybody for their actions. Granting the purity ot pur pose which has actuated the commia- sionei s, no sensible man can doubt that very damaging mistakes have been made, and whether these were the re sult of mistaken judgment or not, they have come from the unwise grant of power to the commission, and at bust from sn abate of that power? We do not object to a railroad com mission, if Its powers are properly *d- justed and restricted. Wc are opposed to tbe present law, and think the Com mission has abnsed the power It con fers. If It cannot be modified so as to famish security ta our railroad prop erty, it ought to be forthwith repealed, as is clearly evidenced by the case as made np by the railroad managers of the State. is to be a banquet at 0 p. m.

Formality on the Mutual Plan. Tbe new H. I. Kimball house, At lanta, Ga., has bc-cn finished and will be formally openedon the30th instant. The formal opening will be a mutual affair, and elaborate invitations to the same hare been scattered throughout the State. The happy recipient of one of these invitations bee left hia copy- at this office with the remark that the af fair promised to he too rich for his hot Southern blood. The invitation to the formal opening ofthenew H. I. Kimball house comes in three chapters, accompanied by plana, specifications and a diagram, together with a bill of probable cost. It ie not a serial, but is complete in one issue. The diagram appears upon the card which Invites the recipient to come np on the 30th and bring hia ladies. From tbe diagram we get an excellent Idea of Use handsome building just com pleted and about to be formally opened. In front of ft a magnificent four-in-hand team is racing with a horse car, while ladies and gentlemen appear upon prancing steeds.

It is quite manifest that the country does not entirely share the supreme personal confidence of Mr. Cleveland that he will speedily and satisfactorily reform the office holding portion of the government. Many people are restive under the delay, and the administra tion is beginning to wince under com ments that very thinly disguise com plaints. The job before Mr. Cleveland is a very large and difficult one. It is alto gether likely that he himself is willing to admit that it grows larger as be ap proaches It more closely. In the lim ited time at his command he really has not had opportunity to address him self to the most serious part of the work. There is an apprehension that he may commence at the wrong end. The South lias complained thafthe has been the greatest sufferer from Ig norant, dishonest and incompetent officials and had government. The complaint is true or false; it is just or unjust. If the South has been exag gerating her troubles, if tho Republi can officials have been proper and faithful servants, then Mr. Cleveland will not interfere with them. He has repeatedly declared that such officials were safe, and his cabinet officers have reiterated his declarations. If a case is to be made ont against each office-holder in the South by written charges, containing specifications as to offen sive partisanship and the accused is to be granted a hearing, then fonr years will not be sufficient to determine one- tenth of the cases. There should be some safer and speedier method of pro cedure. But Mr. Cleveland la confronted with another grave difficulty. We allude to the situation in Georgia, and oar hon est people hold that the Augean stables are deeper with muck In this Btate than any other. The peo- plo of the Southern Slates will not ad mit this, bnt will contend that their burden is the greater and more griev ous. But if the peculiar difficulty which exists in Georgia, may be found elsewhere, we are not aware ot It. If Mr. Cleveland should attempt to make chengesln offices in tills State, at the end of a term, or tor canse, he may be brought face to face with this difficul ty- What will he do when a Republican office-holder whom he wishes to re move brings up indorsements of the two Senators and their hench men, to the effect that he is a member of the gang, that he has always helped them with money, vote* and influence, and that he has received assurances that he would bo undisturbed ? What will be the action of Mr. Cleveland, when Rryant and Wilson, Locke, Dar nell, Wade and others allege that they have been faithful members of the coalition in Georgia, and have kept their money and clothes along with Brawn and Colquitt? Will ho rontove men who have had fat pieces under these Republicans, end who are allies of the crowd that assnmes to control Georgia politics and patronage? It Colqnitt has been allowed to dicker and trade with Republicans in the departments, right under Mr. Cleveland’s nose, in order to unload some of bis responsibilities upon the politic, will the trades and understand ings in Georgia be made good by the administration? These are the ques tions that are interesting decent and honest Georgians. If Mr. Cleveland does not intend to clean ont our stall in the Angean stable, there will be no complaint at his deliberation or even delay. The specifications (or the formal open ing of tbe new II. I. Kimball House are aptly expressed In a circular letter which the recipient signs and addressee to the managers, and in which be is made to state that the invitation is “ac cepted with thanks.” To this 1* at tache. I a blank form on the order of an application for money orders, In which is to be stated the style of tickets want ed, for whom, and the sex of "whom.” Tbe age, weight and previous condi tion need not be described. The formal opening of the new II. I. Kimball House is to be on tbe mutual plan. The managers get up the open ing end the guests pay for it The plana are elaborate and should be carefully studied, or the participant trill bite off less than be can chew and more than be can pay for. First there Con. Lawton's Cate Has been decided in so far as tbit ad ministration can decide it. Tbe opin ion ol Attorney General Garland la not at hand, bat it is to the effect that • pardon tripes ont the offense. This is law and common sense. The contrary opinion would permit the Republicans, when In power, to continually pile up lresh barriers against Southern men. There will be a foes made over the matter when tbe Senate meets again, of course, but Mr. Cleveland hie administration will have to fight the Senate and tbe Republi can party sooner or later, and It can well afford to meet them on this issue. In the meantime General Lawton will, be sent to St. Petersburg, and the idea is prevalent that this will cause much more sorrow and disappointment among certain politicians in Georgia than elsewhere.

Recently we quoted in these columns a sentiment from Dr. Lipscomb that will bear repetition: “To neglect our men of genius is to neglect ourselves, and to help build them up is one way, and a very good way, to build up our dear South.” This springs to mind again in connection with the move ment to build here in his native city, under the blue skies and in view of the hills he lo72d zo well, a monument to the poet, philosopher, humanitarian and white-souled gentleman, Sidney Lanier. The movement is worthy of the day and hour. By his life, by his works, by bis manhood, Sidney Lanier has honored the people from whom he sprang more than they can ever hope to honor him. They can bnt exempli fy on brass and stone the qualities up on which he relied, and jnstify his high faith in humanity. Literature owes much to this dead singer. His work was thorough as far as the brief compass of his years al lowed him to advance. When he touched the immortal harp and spun his melodies, no false note marred tbe strains, no discord broke tbe silvery flow. And through each melody ran a purpose, pure as the song itself, reaching out into all the haunts of humanity. His songs were of na ture, and he sang them where the poor, who stand nearest Nature’s heart,might hear and be comforted by them. Her melodies he brought to ear, aDd sound ed thorn upon strings that translated in a wonderful symphony. In tender- est sympathy, he invoked her bean- ties. Itch no-tongued tree That, spring by spring, doth nobler be. And dumbly and most wistfully lilt mighty prayerful arms outspreads Above men's oft unheeding heads, And bit big blessing downward sheds. • * * all shaped blooms and leaves Lichens on stones and mats on eaves. Grasses and grains In ranks and sheaves; Broad trended ferns and keen-leaved canes. And briery mazes bounding lanes. And marsh-plant,, thlraty-cnpped for rslns, And milky stems and sugary veins; For every tong armed women vine That round a piteous tree doth twine. The poor, the suffering, innocence, and they who stand— "Wedged by tbe pressing ot Trade's hud “Against an Inward-opening door. “That pressure tightens evermore, 1 had in Sidney Lanier a defender, an interpreter, a friend whoso sympathies were unbounded and love unwavering. Fair is this poet’s fame. But not alone as poet does he dwell in the knowledge of hia people. His criti cisms, his essays, his compilations are polished gems of literary work record as a soldier is as spotless as the pages of bis thought. Under the skies of Virginia, with the foe at bis front, and disease beside him to prevent escape, be fought his dauntless battles. And when the oppressed spirit unbent Itself in qnieter hours—when its visor was lowered and guard down—no Bound of complainings, no murmur of discon tent came forth. Upon that flute whose voice he alone could tempt to inch far flights of melody, he breathed his prayer, and unseen wings bora away beyond even human yearn ings, leaving us the sounding echoes These vocal poems most die. They, of all Lanier’s works, must perish for no man can release them from the memory of the living and bid them speak again. Bat if there lives an ear attuned as his, sometimes at early mom or In the watches of the night, may be laid near Natnre’s heart, there to catch tbe fragments of these word less songs; may hear the blackbirds tho marshes, —''Tree sounds, rustling ot pine cooes, Wlnd-slghtngs, doves' mslodtona moans. And nighl’a unearthly undertones. 1 Sometime may hear in the grand rush of melody— "A velvet date-note tall down pleasantly, and sail— At 11 a petal from a wild rose blown Had nattered down upon that pool ot tone.” But tho flute song will come no more. The artist-soul has passed. His prayer is hushed. There is one element in Sidney La nier's works not dwelt upon by the crit ics. It seems to hare escaped unno ticed. And yet it ie tbe surface into which the wonderful traceries ere drawn, the silver and gold hammered, and upon which tbe bright gems of hie thought flesh their subtle lights cease lessly. Behind ell his dreaming, bis melody, hia fancy, Ida ecstasy, is a practical mind. Ilia philosophy Is sound, his hamanitarlanism broad and practical, and hia sympathy pur poseful. We do not recall averieof hia not founded uponadefenaible base. No man ever wrote a atralghter warn ing than Is contained la the lines ad dressed in “Cora” to the Georgia farmer: "Look thou, substantial spirit ot content, Across this little vale, thy continent. To where beyond the mouldering mill Yon old deserted Georgian bill Betas to the sun h's aged crest. And aeamv breast, By restless-hearted children left to die Cntended there beneath the heedless sky, At hetbetona folk expose tbelr old to die. This old hill, whose owner ran to cotton olene—“tamed every field into a gambler’s hell” end "soiled to rain in borrowed ships of uonry”—is with ns to-day. Where is there a jastcr sentiment, a worse neglected troth than— "There's more la the aw then there is In the land.” Is not the woman'! plea true?— "We melds would ter, far whiter he If that onr eyee might sometimes etc Men, maids In purity.” And is it (alee that 'll man loved larger larger were our Urea, And wooed they nobler, won they nobler wives?” The works ot Sidney Lanier ore foil ot troth, beauty,'melody and justice. To these will bis monument, it erected, fitfiXUl M an Ltt built. And on ita face carve tbe lone full corn-shaft of which he wroto: Thou litt'st more stature than a mortal man's, Yet ever plerceet downward In tbe mould And keepest bold Upon the reverend end steadfast earth That gave thee birth. Yea, standcst smiling In thy very grave, Serene and brave, With unremitting breath. Inhaling life from death, Thine epitaph, writ fair In frnltags eloquent, Thy living self, tby monument,” 8o stood the poet. So stands his work. Thess boa been a monumental display Mr. Cleveland's Dilemma. As the mugwumps secured Mr. Cleveland's nomination and claim to have done much towards his election, is not strange that in the division of the offices so far they have been liberally rewarded. The trouble with the deserters is that it is always more costly to feed them alter they have left their flag than to fight them when serving un der it. The present attitude of these foragers may account for the delay of the ad ministration in proceeding to reform the government with a firm hand. The Massachusetts mugwumps have had a meeting and hare laid down tho law to Mr. Cleveland as follows: We deem this a fit occasion for expressing our belief that tbe reasons which prevent the removal of officers -during the terms for which they are appointed on partisan grounds and for the pnrpose of patting In their places those who ere In political accord with the appoint ing power’ apply with equal fores against ap pointments lor political reasons when the terms of inch officers expire, and we earnest ly hope that the precedent established In the cue ot Mr. Pearson will govern all similar cues, and that merit and competency will be recognised bv tbe reappointment of all compe tent end faithful officers who have notueed their official poaltton for partisan purposes. These fellows want the earth and the riches thereof and will go back to the old camp if not supplied with all tho rations they demand. On the contra ry, the New York mugwumps are too sharp to display voraciousness at pres ent. Speaking for these, the New York Times says: Moreover, taking the great body ot the ser vice with what is notoriously the history ot the Republican party, and tbe kind and de- of partisan service exacted from ofilce-holdere, U may fairly doubted whether a pretty thorough change, If made deliberately and care fully, with a rceolnte desire to get the best men atulaablc from the oppoette party, would not, on tbe whole, be a good thing. The ser- vlce Ie not now and bu oot for a generation been on a business huts. If the President lhall undertake to fill vacancies u they occur with really competent men he will have a bard time of It, bat so far u he eneeeeda It will be no service to reform to criticise him be cause the competent men are Democrat!. This is meant to be license for Mr. Cleveland to torn out all the Blaine office-holders. The insincerity of tbe Times may be read between the lines in this: The qnestlon in regard to the eligibility ol Mr. Lawton, named u minister to Rnssla, Is a delicate one. The Attorney-General bu given to the President hit opinion enctalnlog Lawlon'e right to hold office, and it would be Interesting to learn the specific rounds of th'e opinion. It le not, of count, known In detail wbat the poaltlon ol the va- rlone Senalore waa noon tbe matter, bnt Mr. Edmnnde Is reported to have argued strongly egelnst the confirmation of Mr. Lawton. Should tbe Preeldent act upon the opinion of the Attorney-General the whole queetlon may corns np again at the opening of the next session of Congress. If Mr. Cleveland’s nerves are not very deeply set and his hide isnot very tough, this mutt humiliate him. This it a threat to him, to let Gen. Lawton alone,or he will be punished by Senator Edmunds. Mr. Cleveland has asked and received the opinion of the law officer of the government. This opinion makes hia duty plain. Mr. Edmnndt is a cold, sour old man, whoaa abilities are, to a great extent, emasculated by his implacable enmity to all Southern men. Mr. Edmunds, It will be recollected, was the man the Timet desired to be Preeldent In piece of Mr. Cleveland. of professional mendacity or ignorance In Gen. Grant's cate. He ia now laid to be •offering from scrofula, physically, and mentally from the developments In the Fish- Ward ease. Old Blits is not without rivals.

AFRAID OF WOMgN, A Learned East Indian's Views on Id- ucated Wives. Sen Francisco chronicle. There is visiting in Ben Francisco a vyy lesrncd Mohammedan named Gopal Vina- yak Joshee. He recently arrived from Bombay, and hat attracted considerable attention on the streets by bla huge Ori ental turban of many folds, which be wears constantly, and Is the only thing especially remarkable about hit eoaiume.

He very courteously complied, and thoroughly entertained the unusualiy large attendance, mostly com posed of young lady teachers, by hit graphio descriptions and peculiarly origi nal ideaa. He said his own Idea was that Ignorant wives were much preferable to eductrd ones, as they made much better elayea; that ie, they performed their dntiea with greater contentment and reliability, and were not continually opposing their own views to those ot their husbands, thus causing the dissension so frequently seen ia more enlightened households. He thought there would be less ol “gsddlng about” which he noticed upon the ttreete cere, It there was less of this placing of women above their spheres.
