The trip was a revelation to us. No map who has not seen the prepara tions that are being made at Chicago for the great exhibit of the products and meohnnlsm of the world, can have anything like n correct idea of their extent. Even tho wildest pictures of the Imagination will not compare with the real grounds and buildings when they come to be seen.' The purpose of this visit to Chicago was to have the Governor and a repre sentative number of the General As sembly advised as to wluit the World’s Fair promises to be. Tho delegation was met by a committee from the di rectory of the fair and oonduotod through the grounds In carriages. An entire day was speut in driving through the grounds and Inspecting the buildings, and yet only a small part Of the great aggregation of im provements could be seen. Enough was seen, however, to satisfy every visitor that the coming World’s Fair Is to surpass anything and everything ever before attempted in the world, In tho way of an exhibition, and to in spire each Georgian with an earnest desire to see his State take her place in the great display of produots and nat ural resources. It will bo a shame for Georgia, tho Empire State of the South, to be left out of this great world’s fair, and It Is to be hoped that our Legislature can and will see its way clear to making such an apporprlatjon as will give the State a creditable representation there. The Herald will have more to say upon this subject, whloh Is of so great magnitude and Is exciting Buoh uni versal attention and Interest through out the world. Wo will, shortly, pre sent our readers with a sketch descrip tive of the work and the numerous at tractions whloh the world’s greatest fair will afford. AflAISST WRECKING HAII.UO ADM ilbaxv’s free school bill, which has ised the Senate, is likely to become ’• before the end of the present don of the General Assembly. Dis- iters, however, will havo an oppor- to express their opinion at the ills, ns it will require a vote of the ople before it enn he put into opera- Jur life-saving service along the ut is a grand thing. Out of 2,570 rsnns in peril on wrecked ships dur st the past year, all but 70 were savod. Such a record is a wonderful attesta tion to the efficiency of modern life- Mving methods, as well as to the he roic efforts of tho brave men employed in the service. The present oondltfon of Georgia’s —41.-a- I.—.twJ.4-,1-. -r—I- - 1 son which will not soon be forgottoh, Within the past live years every rail road In the State, with few exceptions, has been Annnoially embnrassed, milk ing neoessary Disappointment of a re ceiver to adjust the business of the rond. It Is along the lino of progress to note that these corporations are at last receiving some protective legislation at the hands of our law makers. The Bacon bill which passed the House yesterday makes it a felony for any In dividual or individuals to attempt to wreck a railroad, or to bring It to financial disaster. The tinanuial losses whloh roads are sometimes made to hear through designing men, often force them to bankruptcy, nnd from the nature of these corporations, suoli n failure is a public calamity, us well as a loss to the stockholders. A little protective legislation can do no harm. Tho common carriers are public servants nnd they deserve pub- llo protection. Tho public, too, hns full power to prevent at tho same time any Injustice towards the people on tho part of these corporations; nnd when they can proteot themselves nnd nt the snmo time afford aid to the roads through public leglslntlou it is nothing but right nnd just that they should do so. After dilating somewhat at upon the question of State bonds and referring to the action taken by the Georgia Legislature in regard to tjiem the Chicago Inter Ocean says: ’ Hut (iooi'Kts Is nut a ono • idea State. The Democratic conception of pmaresB,ns illustrat ed ut Atlanta, is twofold. Thu unchaining of thu furious catamount does.not carry, oat fnllV the Democratic idea of progress. To this is added a ci net insult to the Confederate vet erans. It will lie reincnitiercd that the crown ing act of the late Mr. Urndy’s life was to raise 9 llKMMO to provide a homo for Confederate snl- diers who had no homes and tvould otherwise havo to goto the pool-house. Everybody seemed to think it was a wise and coinmendablo as well as charitable tiling to do. Tile gift was turned over to Ucorgla. or, rntlier. offered to the State, with no thought of any hesitation In Its ac ceptance. Rut. ns a matter of inct, tho Legis lature of Georgia daily refuses to accopt tho gift. It would involve tho cost of maintenance. Illinois uud many other States have gone to the oxpensu of building such homes for the r old soldiers, ns well as maintaining them. In its aspirations to take a hand in every Issue that comes beforo a people, whether State or national, our able contemporary again signalizes its Ignorance In regard to facts, or Its ability in misconstruing them. The .Herald has always advocated the acceptance and maintenance of the Soldiers’ home by the State, and the majority of Georgia’s people have always favored suoh action. There are times when, on certain questions representatives do not conform to the wishes of their constituents and we believe It was so with the last Legis lature. But the present Assembly haB taken no action whatever in regard to the bill ns the Inter Ocean seems to in fer, except In the committee room whero It was reported to the House with the recommendation that it pass. Many members of .he present House were elcoted upon this Issue, and the chances are that It will have quite a large majority in that body. Agnln, the home is not looked upon ns wholly a oharltlble Institution. There are none of Georgia’s old sol diers .who have not been amply pro vided for, The Soldiers’ Home Is nn Institutions Intended for such veter ans who have no homes of their own, in lieu of the pensions they receive—a plnce where they oan spend in oomfort their reclining years. There is many a veteran soldier in Georgia, who, while byno means In destitute clraumstanaes; will be glad to see the doors of the home thrown open, where he may be given the care and attention necessary In Intter years, and they will soon see it done. ', Georgia Is not a one-idea State, our World’s Fnir zealot would do welfto proAt by Georgia’s example.

First comes a State election, then the national elections, and then municipal and county elections galore, following fast one upon the other. The average eltizen gets weary of too much of suoh business, and the consequence is that a largo per aentnge of the suffrage is never exeroised. The evil could be remedied to some extent at least by combining the State and National eleotlons In Presidential years, nnd the effect would be to bring out the largest possible number of voters and get at the expressions of public opinion to a better advan tage. There is no doubt but the average Gcorglnn is burdened with too much polltios. Opposition to Speaker Crisp for a second term is fast disappearing. A NEW ROUTE -BETWEEN- A SKIIIKH OP KIINI-'OIITI’NKM. The exact words that Mr. Cleveland s supposed to have used in detlnnco of nmany, at a memorable banquet, ve been given to the world. They i as follows: "I will appeal from (e machine to the people. This very ’~ht I wil issue a declaration to the ora of the state, telling them the isition you have made to me and ons why I am not able to ac- it. I will ask them to choose be- Suoh is my conAdenoe in the i that before the week ends 1 eve yonr machine will be in revo- i against you. I cannot make the s you ask.”—Atlanta Journal. Truly, President Hnrrison’s lot, dur ing tho past year, hns been a sad one. The death of Dr. Seott, the venerable fatlier-in-law of the President, is now added to tho bereavements which he has experienced during his residence in the White House. An unusually large number of his officials and wives of officials ltayc died during the pnst four years; hut of sad ness, the President seems to have had more than Ills share. It may seem out of plnce to speak in the same sentence of bereavement by death ami defeat in the race for offloe, yet the Intter must be classed as his misfortune, and a greater one when so closely connected with the former in point of time. It is a wonder that the death of those so near to him, together with the ad verse decision of the greatest of hu man tribunals staring him in the face, did not cause his prostration. But he is a man of strong mind and able to bear up under the adversity of mis fortune and bereavement. While all cannot join in sympathy over hts public misfortune, his be reavements have touched the oherds of a nation’s heart. In their sympathy, party principles are forgotten, and a fellow-feeling goes forth for the man whose heart is bowed down with grief. Thomasville & Atlanta, 13a. With Through Coaches Daily Via C. S.
