for one reason If lor no other—it will
put an end to that gigantic system of
pension frauds hy whloh the govern
ment treasury has been for years suc
cessfully looted. ,’(^j\ ii V
From $16,000,000 In 1866 the expenses
of the government front this one
source have grown to tbapteseat time
to $160,00^000, with the • promise of a
fair Increase, unless checked, td $460,-
om&op' or thereabouts. This Is over
one-third of the total expenditures
made hy the government, ondpao far,
It has succeeded ill keeping the treas
ury empty.
Nobody denies that a worthy soldier,
or hls wldbw, made helpless by the ex
igencies of wan, should bo extended
government aid; but, could the facts
be known, there are thousands of men
now drawln'g pensions who were never
i,n a single battle in the war, many
others wllo were never wounded In
warfare, and still others who are rich
and Independent. Pensions are ob
tained fnr these men through the in-
llucncc of the pension sharks in Wash
ington wlm are growing rich un the
proceeds, and through whom this loot
ing of the treasury Is accomplished.
One reason why the pension roll is
so long Is that It was Increased by the
Republican party In hopes that such a
course would aid them In retaining
power, lint the fallacy of this propo
sition has recently been demonstrated,
and the people have grown weary of
having the public treasury so reckless
ly plundered.
After tho fourth of March a whole
sale investigation of the pension rolls
will he In order, and all undeserving
pensioners, who can easily be found,
should, forthwith, be stricken from the
list.
The government must he ‘economi
cally and honestly administered.’

kling over the Idea that his next

Georgia's enterprising citizens are
working bnrd to get an appropriation
for a State exhibit at the World’s Fair.
Tho following from thu Atlanta
Journal, will give some Idea of tho
steps being taken to carry' this enter
prise through successfully.
We consider It n fortunate thing for
Georgia that Governor Northen and
tho special legislative committee Are
going to Ohlcngn to see the progress
of thwWnrld’s Fair.
After they make this trip they will
be better able to Impress upon the leg
islature the importance of a Georgia
exhibit.
It Is certainly the desire of the peo
ple of tbV state that we should be rep
resented nt the great exposition. If
Georgln appears there stall, she should
be fnlrly presented before the' eyes of
the world.
The report of Gov. Northen and the
legislative committee on their return
from Chioago will be awaited with
f treat Interest. It. would be ndthltig
ess thnn n misfortune to have Georgia
left out uf great army of nations and
States at tho World’s Kalr.

TiuiMAaviLLR is now clamoring for
n revision of her census. There was
something wrong somewhere when the
census of tills part* of Georgia was
taken. '
Gkn. Rohkoiianh, Registrar pf the
Treasury, mtbtnmonds the repeal of
the civil servloo law in so far as it ap
plies to Ills department. He thinks
tne department needs au infusion of
new blood, and that the removal of tile
government barnacles, wlm have so
long held on there, would he a good
riddance. Gen, Jioseorans is a loyal

Skxatoh Jonkb, of Nevada, delegate
to the International Monetary Confer
ence, should be called home, as be is
doing more barm than good. He said,
publicly, In London, that thu new ad
ministration would pass n free silver
bill without a doubt. However, mem
bers of the conference arc generally
more of figureheads than unything
else, audit is not probable that he
will do any one much barm either
way.
Tub comet now approaching the
earth will be, on Sunday night, accord
ing to scientists, ns near to us ns it
will come. It lias not yet been de
termine^ whether or not it is Biela’s
comet, which, on two former visits,
was aooom panted by several brilliant
meteoric showers. Astronomers think
that It is probably the same dyer, ami
that there will be a repetition of the
meteoric showers on Sunday night.
Look out for it.
Skxatob Wootkx is doing some
good work for his constituents as well
as for the State. In fact Hilly comes
pretty near taking the lead in the
Senate, and Albany is proud of it. His
local measure amending tile city char
ter was the llrst bill to pass the Senate,
and it was one of the first to receive
the Governor's signature. It becomes
a law at the middle of tin' present ses
sion, which is surprisingly quick work
for tho tlrst session, occupied as it was,
with elections.

The idea of Cleveland’s election in
terfering In any way with the' pro
gress of civil rights is the veriest rot.
The sohetne is an old' one. These so-
called ministers have an eye on that
spare cash, and if they succeed, it will
not be tiie first lime they have pulled
tho wool over the eyes of their Incau
tious brethren.
The better class of Negroes take no
stock In the purported share. They
know that they fared better under
Cleveland’s administration, than 1 they
have done since, and many of them
have gone so far as to welcome the re

A correspondent gives nil amusing
instance of how wrong English peo
ple get when they come to deal with
Welsh names. A short timongou
London journalist took up his quar
ters in a house at Barmouth, rejoic
ing in the. melodious appellation of
Ty Fry (pronounced Tivree). This
means the "upper house." One morn
ing the journalist was astonished to
have a letter addressed to him ''care
of Mr. Ty Fry,” while another day a
further letter came "care of T.. Fry,
Esq."
To crown it all a telegram foujid
him with the uuvger direction, “core
of Fry, Bnrniotitli." It speaksvol-
umrs for the post office that none of
these extraordinary epistles should
navo gone astray. Tho explana
tion subsequently vouchsafed by his
friends was that thoy thought ho
was staying with one Timothy Fry.—

Antiquity of Pin*.
Pins of varfous sorts haye been in
existence ever since oUr “first par
ents” clothed themselves in palm
loaves which grew wild in tho Garden
of Eden. As a matter of fact, pins
claim ‘a vory high antiquity, the
earliest form being a natural thorn,
which is still used to some extent for
fastening >tho dress by the peasant
women of upppr Egypt. In pre
historic times pins wore also irrado of
tho small bones of fish nnd animals.
