If President Cleveland, in mak

As editor of The Atlanta Evening

and business capacity fit him to

The conditions are decidedly
propitious for the people-of Geor
gia to attend to their own business,
and people who attend to their
own business persistently are gen
erally prosperous.
At first glance this.may appear
flippant, but it is not so intended.
Just ahead of us is a democratic
administration of federal affairs,
and there is no need for the peo
pie generally to-bother themselves
about national politics. We can
rest assured that federal affairs
will be .properly managed, and
that the interests of the people of
Georgia will be carefully guarded
at Washington by the solid demo
cratic delegation there represent
ing the Empire State of the South.
The State offices are filled by
able men, true democrats, and the
various county offices have just
been filled by vote of the people.
There will be no more elections
this year, aud the legislature will
not be in session again until the
fourth Wednesday in next Octo
ber. Therefore, there is no need
for politics in any form to inter
fere. with business in any degree
whatever.
With politics"out of the way,
wise and "energetic application to
business will bring prosperity to
every- section of this great State,
throughout which the elements of
success a'bound. Of course there
will be hindrances to many, provi
dential or otherwise, but to the
great majority the way i3 clear for
unobstructed devotion to business.
Let each man use the talents en
trusted to him, aud the result will
be profitable many fold. With the
opportunity, now carefully consid
ered, and -wisely used, and the
operations repeated continually
teroughout the year, success will
surely come. Failure will not
come without sufficient cause.
Mullino—Edge.
Frem the Macon Telegraph of
last Thursday, we clip the- follow
ing marriage notice:
“Yesterday, Wednesday, Janua
ry 4th, 1893, at high noon, Miss
Clara Edge wa3 married to Dr.

_ Special Correspou dent.
Washington, D. C., Jan. .9, ’93.
Speaker Crisp still shows the
effect of his recent severe attack of
indigestion, b.nt he was able to
preside over the House during the
short and ' unimportant sessions
held last week. As usual the at
tendance fqr the first two or three
days after the holiday recess was
small; and the sick list is unusnal-
ly large, but the work on .the ap
propriation bills, which after all is
the main business of this session,
is being rapidly pushed In view
of the porbable silver fight which
may begin any day, Speaker Crisp
was asked by a friend which side
he would be ou. “Neither” was
his quick reply. “It is my duty
to impartially preside over the
House, and, whatever my personal
opinion may be, I shall endeavor
to do it.”
Bepresentative Scott, of Illi
nois, introduced a resolution last
week which is believed to contain
a part of the true inwardness of
the way in which Secretary Foster
has stayed' off the actual deficit in
the Treasury daring the last year
It started out by stating' that the
Fifty-first Congress provided for
the construction or extension oE 75
public buildiugs, and that 47 of
them have not yet been contracted
Eor; aud calls on the Secretary of
the Treasury for information as to
why so many of these public works
have been so long delayed, and
why more than $3,000 000 appro
priated for this purpose remained
unexpended during the last two
years. Mr. Scott asked unani
mous consent of the Honse for the
immediate consideration of the
resolution, but Bepresentative
Dingley, of Maine, objected, and
the resolution was referred.
Senator Carlisle’s friends are
beginning to practice calling him
Mr. Secretary, as the belief has be
come general that he has yielded
the pressure brought to bear
upon him and agreed to. accept the
position of Secretary of the Treas
ury in President Cleveland’s cabi
Det, although he still declines to
discuss the matter.
It is now conceded, even by the
most sanguine republicans, that
the Senate of the Fifty-third Con
gress will be controlled by the
democratic party, although several
