Mr. Turnei
when he auo:
It had been said that gentlemen comin,,
from the old slave States were not capable of
dealing with a question which involved the
wagts of labor. If they were unfit on ac
count of their incidental relations with slaTe- 1
ry to consider public questions affecting the
burden of taxation, why should it not be said,
with equal sincerity, that those who brought
Africans over on New England ships could
not be trusted with the task of revising the
privileges of free men.

a conscientious regulation of wages on
a satisfactory basis both to the em
ployer and the employe. There are
no strikes South ou account of redac
tion in wages, no rioting laborers
marching nnder banners bearing the
device, “We want bread.” But
peace smiles on a land where wage-
earners are meted out justice, and
treated with every consideration that
humane feelings can prompt.
'file poor houses of the South are uot
Ailed to overflowing, and those that
seek shelter and provision nnder their
roofs find a charity a3 sweet as Chris
tianity can make it.
A comparison of the compensation
of Southern wage-earner^ with that
received at tiie North in the proh-ctcd
industries i3 not without interest.
The Southern farmer pays his labor
er fifty per cent, of the product of
the farm, while the protected
Institutions pay operatives only
18 per cent, of the value of their
products. Surely, this would demon
strate that Southern laborers receive
justice at the hands of men who once
recognized the divine right of property
in slaves.
There exists nowhere ou earth
the same close and friendly relation
between master and servant us that
there is in the South. - The white man
manifests a kind condescension that al
ways draws his Negro laborers to him
in confidence and respect, and the Ne
gro looks trustingly to life guidance.
Occasionally there is an em
ployer who abases the confidence, and
imposes upon the simple nature of
those for whom he should entertain
the kindness of feeling akin to pity,
and then public opinion acts to correct
a repetition in visiting the offender
with every sign of displeasure.
The relation of master and servant
is of that character which is calculated
to appeal to the justice and tenderness
of all, but it receives due recognition
from none more cheerfully than tiie
generous hearted Southerner, always
liberal to his servants. If they hunger
he feeds them, whether anything is
clue them or not; If they are stricken
down by disease, he cares for them,
tenderly ministering to their necessi
ties. Conscience and duty never pre T
scribed a line ot conduct that is more
righteously pursued by men thau the
obligation to deal Justly with our sei
vants.
ion, Louisiana has been regarded as truism trot
- doubtful State in national politics j of statesma
ever since the war, but her name should
be written in the list of doubtful States
no longer.
The New. Orleans Item, a Republi
can paper, in speaking of the result of
the recent election in Louisiana, lets in
a deal of light upon the increasing
Democratic majority in that State by
saying that “a uutnber of the better
sort of intelligent and independent
Negroes boldly proclaimed themselves
Democrats, ami in favor of the election
ot General Nicholls from the begin
ning.”
Along on the same line of the above,
comes the Progress, a paper edited by
Negroes, which declares that “thous
ands and thousands of colored voters
cast their votes for the Democratic
nominees for Governor.”
This positive evidence from the
highest Republican sources iu the
South,, as bearing upon this subject,
will, of course, be unpleasant to the
rampant Republican politicians at the
North, who would prefer to have the
country believe that the Southern
Negroes are coerced, ami that the
increasing Democratic majorities in the
States with large Negro populations
are due to fraud; but the statements
above quoted will stand, nevertheless,
and must be accepted by ail fair-
minded people, North or South.
Tiie “Solid South” has never been
so solidly and irretrievably Demo
cratic as she is to-day, and if the Re
publicans are counting on capturing a
single Southern State with the internal
revenue delusion or protective tariff
snare in the next Presidential electiou
they are simply reckoning without
their hosts.
Tube is considerable speculation at
Washington as to who will be chosen
chairman of the Democratic national
convention. There is a general im
pression that Representative Collins,
of Boston, will tie chairman, and it is
said that George Raines, of New York,
will propose 31 r. Cleveland’s name to
the convention'.
It is fun for tiie boys to watch tiie
first visible shock of surprise to the
protection journals of the South, ns
their respective States endorse Cleve
land and ids revenue reform policy,
and then observe how quietly they fall
into Hue and march along with tiie
procession. The Birmingham Age is
the last acquisition.
A Little Story.
According to the Atlanta correspon

Eviui P. Howell, of the Atlanta Con

Ajigusta Chronicle,were the centre of a
group In tiie Kimball House arcade on

‘Hr. Walsh and Senator Colquitt. 1
Under tiie above heading, an anony
tnous writer publishes a card in Sun
day’s Atlanta Constitution that is
evidently designed to alienate from
Senator Colquitt some of his best
friends. Senator Colquitt Is charged
with ingratitude to Mr. Walsh, in that
he suffered Mr. Walsh to be sacrificed
in the late convention, when in liquid
ation of the debt of gratitude due
Mr. Walsh for services rendered in the
memorable gubernatorial campaign of
1880, he should have exerted his In
fluence to have secured his selection as
delegate at large to the St. Louis con
vention.
Senator Colquitt should be held
entirely blameless of the “slate,”
he is known to have expressed his un
willingness to influence the action of
the convention In • selecting its repre
sentatives.
The blindness with which this writer
is searching lor sore places is shown
In his allusion to Capt. Richard Hobbs,
of this city. He need not scratch at
Captain Hobbs’ head, for it Isn’t sore.
The News and Advertiser is
authorized to fay for Captain Hobbs
that he does not charge his withdrawal
to SenatPF Colquitt. He was not “sac
rificed”; he withdrew his name, not
withstanding the opposition of his
colleagues of the Second District ami
the earnest request of friends, in the
interest of harmony. It was a posi
tion which he did not specially covet,
and hg lyas pilling to entrust the
honor of tfie party Jn thp hands of the
gentlemen who were subsequently
elected.
The Republicans of the New York

both being saloons. The other, where
the fire originated, • was unoccupied.

much headway, but owing to the lame

consumed the buildings. The origin

Some people continue to predict that
the Columbus Southern railroad will
not be built, still the work on the road
goes straight ahead. We see it stated

road are to be transferred to the Co

IIox. Patrick Walsh has had many
kind things said about him since his
defeat for delegate-at-large to the St.
I/>uls convention in the .Suite Demo
cratic convention. He really hasas lit

No, neighbor; Albany has fully

Conkling’s Will.
There will be no contest over the
will of the late IJoscoe Conkling. It
was recently made public, and is now
going the rounds of the press as
model will, emanating from one of the
most eminent lawyers this country
has ever produced. Ji is expressed iu
seventy-five words, and is as follows
*1. Roseoe Conkling, of Utica, N.

We may laugh at tbp Idea of an
aerial ship ever being practical, but
the recent action of Congress In par
tially recognizing the air ship of Dr.
DcBausset gives a color of probability
to its near perfection. The House
Committee on Ventilation and Acous
tics has Instructed its chairman' to re
port a bill appropriating $15p ; 000 to
the scheme when Dr. DeBausaet siioi)
have demonstrated its practicability.
Dr. Defiau^set jjj expected to put $75,-
000 in tiie enterprise in order to make
thorough test. Jt seems that the
Doctor has inspired some wjtli confi

impractical scheme. The ship is to
consist essentially oi a metalie com
partment vessel, so constructed that
when sufficiently exhausted It will rise
in the gir and carry a burden. It is
to be provided with air pumps and
steering, with electric storage battery
to supply power, and with means for
transporting passengers and freight.
The whole wsaej is to constitute a
rapid conveyance for pyerjand or
transoceanic passage, and for general
purposes of exploration, compieree,
etc. Now, the principle of floating
bodies is that they are bouyed up with
a force equal to the weight of the water,
or aiFjdisplflCpd, and it seems to us im
possible to construct a pbamber of such

The difficulties standing in the way
of the Mills tariff bill are made appar
ent, and the aptness of the above
quoted writer’s declaration wilL be
most forcibly illustrated to any om
by readiug over the various amend
ments proposed by Congressmen fro m
different sections of the couutxy to tiie
Mills bill. Mr. Glass, from the pota
to district of Tennessee, for intance,
though a prououuced tariff reformer in
a general way. wants foreign potatoes
taxed. Mr. Carutb, of Kentucky, the
laud of hemp, a*ks that flax bagging
be given a bonus of two cents per
pouud. Mr. Holman, of Indiana, who
Is & sugar buyer, proposed that the
sugar tariff be reduced 50 per cent., to
which the Louisiana members, of
course, strenuously objected. Mr.
Dougherty (and the Florida orange
grower whom we have quoted above,
thinks, of course, that Mr. Dougherty
is right) would like' to Increase the
duty ou orauges 25 per ceut. over the
present rate, while Mr. Cbipman, of
31ichigan, the laud of tall timber, de
mands that Hie present duty on wood
and pulp be retained.
A horizoltal reduction of the tariff
would affect some interest in nearly
every section of the country, but “the
greatest good to the greatest number”
should be the motto of Congress in re
vising the tarifl*. Mr. Springer, of II-
linoise, seems to have had tills in view
when he proposed to place on the free
list all manufactured products, the do
mestic product of which may be con
trolled by trusts.
has* «1 on the recent official investiga-
tio’ a into the amount of the service ren-
de red, it will, probably, require an an-
P.ua! appropriation to meet the deficit.
It is already known that the mail
matter carried by the railroads is
largely in excess of the basis of the last
contract.
Be all that as it may, if the proposed
measure becomes a law, then Albany
will surely enjoy tiie distinction of
having a government building. The
Atlanta Constitution publishes a list
ot the. Georgia cities entitled to a build
ing under the measure, as follows:
Albany postal receipts, $5,630;
Americas, $4,936; Athens, $8,328;
Baiubridge, $3,276; Barnesvi 1 Ie,$3,123;
Brunswick, $7,092; Columbus, $16,-
709; Dalton, $3 249; Gainesville,
$3,842; Griffin, $4,474; LaGrange.
$3,095; Macon, $32,245; Marietta,
$4,903; Milledgeville, $3,271; New-
uan, $3,210; Rome, $10,329; Thornas-
ville, $5,911.
'From the above it will be^seen that
Albany occupies the seveutb place on
the list, with Thotnasvillc $281 ahead
and Americas $684 behind her iu pos
tal receipts. The postal receipts of
cities are fair indices to their relative
population and business, unless some
abnormal condition exists to create an
increase. Thomasville’s increased re
ceipts are due to the fact that from
three to five thousaud Northern visit
ors winter there. Albany’s is natural,
and the result of her healthy trade and
uative population.

&s a possible third candidate. Captain
Gordon has captured Chatham coun
ty, but 3Ir. Norwood seems to have
the lead iu the w 1 regrass counties. The
Democratic Executive Committee of
the district met at Savannah on Satur-
drj and called flie nominating con
vention at Brnnswjck qn the }3th of
June. Tiije conveqtiqn ha§ for many
years -been lieid in Savannah, usually
In the latter part of July, and the time
and place selected by the committee on
Saturday is regarded as favorable to
Mr. Norwood.
As to “Better me in*.”
The discussion of the tariff lias taken
such wide range, and has been of such
absorbing interest throughout tiie
State, on account of certain threats that
had been made prior to the recent Stale
Democratic convention, that other mat
ters of vital importance to be taken
Into consideration in connection with
the election ol those who are fo repre
sent the people in the next General
Assembly have received but little at
tention from the press of late. Promi
nent among these neglected matters Is
the question of betterments which
must be settled between the State and
the present lessees of the State Road
by the Legislature to be elected Iu Oc
tober next.
The News and Advertises does
not take the prejudiced view that
seemed to prevail to a considerable ex
tent in the last Legislature against the
lessees upon this question of better
ments, and would advise caution and
conservatism in trying to adjust the
differences between the State and the
lessees. Public opinion seems to be
strongly In favor of “not one dollar
for betterments,” but this is certainly
an extreme view, if applied tS the roll
ing stopk, and, if It Pilld he insisted
upon by the Legislature It would mo3t
certainly lead to long and costly liti
gation In the United States courts.
There is much more involved In this
question of betterments and the dis
position that is to be made of the State
Road at the expiration of the present
lease than appears at a glance, or than
was seemingly comprehended by many
who ape sqppbaed to hqve given soing
investigation and thought to the subject
when it was being primarily consider
ed by the last Legislature. It is there
fore important that the people, in
lecting those who are to represent
therp iq ftjg ne?|t Legislature, should
have an eyp to thjs Suite Road matter.
Men of ability and unpurchasable, In£
corruptible integrity alone si * *
stand between the State and the It
in tftjs fh? leases will
be certain to look after their interests
In the matter, and the people should
see to It that they have the right sort
of men in position to look after theirs.

A pto$ Against Colquitt.
An Atlanta special to the Savannah

on Thursday, that Pat Walsh, Sena

tectionists, are contemplating uniting
qpon some Jqtf fttpff jfonioerat, who
will bp urged fo ftppp^e Mr. Colquitt
for the Senate. They fhink, so the ru
mor gees, that it is impossible to
defeat him with a Protectionist, but
have hopes of weakening his strength
by taking up some Democrat who
holds the same views on the tariff, and
think strongly that they can defeat
him hf fhi» method. The triends of
