Let Them Answer.
The News has often asked the
leaders of the third party how
their party, if it were in power,
would get control of the railroads
and pay for them. They stand on
the railroad plank, and declare
their belief in the wisdom of gov
ernment ownership of railroads,
hut they have never explained to
the people their plan for purchas
ing them.
There are only two wavs by
which Uncle Ham could become
the owner of the railroads. One
is by the issue of nbout ten billion
dollars of paper money, which
would he practically worthless,
and (he other is by floating bonds
for good money with which to pay
for them.
Now, let us examine into these
plans and see if either of them is
practicable or wise. The issue of
$10,000,000,000 would make the
per capita of so-called money
about $175. Tom Watson, in his
Cartersville speech last Tuesday,
said he realized that a government
could burden itself with too much
money. If $175 per capita would
not be too much (of the kind) we
should like for Tom to name his
limit. Not only would it be un
wise and impolitic to purchase the
railroads in this way, but it would
be dishonest. To force the own
ers of railroads to accept so inferi
or a money would he the same as
forcing a farmer to give up his
farm for a note which he could
not collect.
To issue $ W,000,000,000 worth of
bonds would be worse, if possible,
than issuing the same amount of
worthless currency. We could not
issue bonds for less than 8 per
cent., if at all, because everybody
would doubt our ability to pay
even the interest, much less the
principal. But, taking it for
granted that we could get the mon
ey at 8 per cent., the annual in
terest would he $800,000,000.
Do the farmers of Georgia really
desire to have this debt saddled up
on theiu ? If not, they should lay
aside their prejudice and vote the
democratic ticket.
lAumh::. AVToWuijj Stronger.
'ljlie friends if Major A> (). Ba
corf who have watched his race for
United States senate are grati
fied at his increasing strength and
growipg popularity with the mass
es. In all sections of the state
the people are for him, as is evi
denced by the many and strong
endorsements which he has re
ceived in conventions and primary
elections.
One of the surest iindicutions of
his election is the fact that his
! strength is not confined to any
I particular section. He is as
| strong in north Georgia as he is in
|central Georgia, and his friends
! are as numerous in south Geoagia
i as they are in north Georgia,
The News is gratified at the
turn tlie race is taking. Major
Bacon is eminently qualified in
every particular to represent Geor
gia in the higher branch of the
j federal legislature, and richly de
serves the honor at his party’s
! hands. We feel that in placing
this high trust in his hands Geor
gia would honor herself and do
j simple justice to one of her ablest
and most loyal sons.
We trust that the Georgia legis
lature will obey the mandate of
the people and elect Major Bacon
on first ballot, without any wrang
ling.
Judge Hutchins for Ke*electioutt
lijiA: Week from the
Walton News an editorial endorse
ment of Judge Hutchins, the very
able, honest and impartial judge

We endorse every word that our
contemporary said about Judge
Hutchins. If there be an absolute
ly incorruptible judge in the
United States, Judge Hutchins is
one. He tracts the law-without
fear, favor or malice. On the bench
he knows neither friend nor enemy.
He is guided alone by the law, und

superb knowledge of the law and
his keen insight into its applica

envied by men of less ability.
Personally, Judge Hutchins is a
most amiable gentleman and a loy

For President of the Senate,
Hon. C. H. Brazil has formal
ly announced his Intention to be a
candidate for president of the
state senate.
This will be gratifying to his
many friends, not only in Gwin
nett county and this senatorial
district, but in all parts of the
state. Charley Brand is a univer
sally popular young man, and is
an active factor in state politics.
The News predicts his election
to the presidency of the state senate
He is a splendid presiding officer,
being well skilled in parlimentarv
law, ready, firm and fair. As

Congress and Its Works.
Congress adjourned last Tuesday
at noon.
During the congressional cam
paigns which will at once become
livoly in all parts of the country
the record of this body will be one
of the chief topics of discussion.
That record speaks for itself and
cannot be obscured by the attacks
of republicans and populists.
The first act of the present con
gress was the repeal of the purchas
ing clause of the Sherman act.
This was demanded by the busi
ness interests and the intelligent
public opinion of the whole coun
try. It was the first step toward
relief from the money famine and
the general business depression.
Almost immediately after the re
peal hill was passed, money be
came easier and business began to
improye. The result has vindicat
ed this action of congress.
Soon after the repeal of the pur
chasing clause of the Sherman act,
another relic of republican misrule
was removed by the repeal of the
federal election law which was a
standing menace to the freedom of
the ballot.
Congress began early the good
work of restoring to the domain
and opening to settlement lands
which had been granted by repub
lican congresses to corporations on
conditions. tjiat luulnever been
plied with. TrB;! ]
hud been as
ple’e land as with the people’s
money. Fifty million acres to
which the corporations claiming
them had no right have been re
claimed at the preeent session.
Tlie passage of the tariff bill af
ter a delay which was caused by a
few senators who seem to he con
trolled by protected trusts entitles
the present congress to the grati
tude of tlie country. The Bill is
not what ft majority of the demo
crats in congress desired it should
be, hut it is a great measure of re
lief from the impositions and bur
dens of the McKinley tariff.
It places on the free list wool,
salt, lumber, farming machinery,
cotton ties, cotton bagging, pig tin,
binding twine and other articles of
necessity which were heavily taxed
by the McKinley law.
The duty on woolen goods and
clothing has been reduced from an
average rate of 98 per cent, to 48
per cent, which will save many
millions to the masses of the peo
ple.
The cost of living under the
new tariff will be materially less
than it was under the McKinley
act.
Expenditures for pensions have
been reduced .$80,000,000, not by
depriving any honest
ouT by |lftrging the
fusion list of the fraudulent
claims that had been allowed by
republican congreses, Though the
country has increased greatly In
population the expenses of the
government have been reduced S2B,
000,000 below the appropriations
jof the last congress and $51,000,
000 below those of the Reed con
gress.
It will be seen that the demo
cratic party has made a record in
this congress on which it can ap
peal confidently to the country,
We have no doubt whatever
that the people will show their
appreciation of this work by choos
ing a good democratic majority at
the congressional election next
November. —Atlanta Journal.
Tub best way in the world to
i help the populist party is to make
the people believe that it is right
on the financial question. The
way to hurt and beat it is to show
the people that it is wrong.
Hon. Joe James is putting in

TURNER ON THE SILVER QUESTION.
lie Shows the Fallacies of Free
and Unlimited Coinage.
Congressman Henry G. Turner,
of the eleventh Georgia district,
addressed the people of DeKalb
county at Decatur last Tuesday at
! noon. Mr. Turner took a bold and,
to our mind, the correct position
on the silver question. He said :
“But,” said he, “there is another
great question rife in this country.
I refer to the silver question. It
is a matter of universal discussion.
There is more prejudice gathered
about this question than about
any other that has existed since I
have been in public life. I have
studied it diligently since I have!
been in congress. The more I
study it the less I know about it.
The more you try to arrive at a
certainty the farther you get away
from it.
“Let me give you a sketch of sil
ver. It has been money for a long
time. In the early history of this
country when the coinage of silver
was free, just as a man carried his 1
corn to mill and had it ground
without toll, it is supposed that j
there was a great deal of silver
coined. The fact is, very little'
was turned out. Very little was
produced. For many years not j
more than $50,000 a year was
mined in this country.
“Now hear in mind that that
period up tolß7B,when silver ceased
to be coined in the form of stan
dard silver dollars,reached through
the most glorious period of our
history, comprising the prosperous
era between 1840 and 1860. Yet
little silver was going through the
mints. But silver was demone
tized, first by an act regulating the
coinage in general and making no
provision for the coinage of the
standard silver dollar. They
claim that this was clandestine
and wicked, yet in 1874, an act
was passed to demonetize the silver
that had already been coined. In
1878, the democratic party was
able to dictate to the republican
senate some silver legislation, and
then provided that the gov
ait should coin from two:
mumnis iq.U> k-eit millions w<lWt>
of silver, in the discretion of the
treasury department, a month.
The increased production of silver
had then begun and it was sup
posed to rango from $24,000,(XX1
to $ 18,(XX>,(XX) a year in the aggre
gate, and it was deemed wise that
the treasury department should
have some discretion in the matter
of coinage.
* “In the meantime Germany had
stricken silver down. Five other
great, commercial countries, com
prising the Latin union, also
ceased to grant free coinage to sil
ver at their mints. Silver, with
tlie great market provided in this
country by tlie act I have alluded
to for all we produced, instead of
going up, went down, down. Un
der the conditions surrounding us
in 1878 and the few years follow
ing, when we were coining two
millions and upwards, silver went
down, down, down.
“How do you account for it. It
is said that the privilege of coin
ing silver at the mint will restore
its parity with gold. When the
republican party came into power
they thought they would provide
a market for all the silver we pro
duce and at the same time preserve
■Uifig'UUality of the two metals. "/
After reciting tlv;„ provisioigrof
the Sherman act, he contnmed,
saving that a late report of the sec
retary of the treasury showed that
between May 81, 1892, and May J,
1898, $49,000,0000f Sherman notes
had been issued. Of this amount
$47,000,000 had been redeemed in
gold, Thus the country was mere
ly buying silver with gold. A
state of panic ensued
“Why that panic? The reason
was that these men were afraid
that there would be no gold to re
deem these silver notes. The cur
rency was based on both gold and
silver. Silver had fallen greatly
in London, the price going from
60 pence per ounce to half that
amount. And yet, in the face of
these facts they insist upon this 16
to 1 idea.”
He reviewed the calling together
of congress by (he president, and
said that pending the movement
another great country, India,
ceased to allow the free coinage at
its mints, and another great mar
ket was destroyed. The situation
was difficult. He had never seen
any man who could dispose of the
question with any degree of cer
tainty unless that man was a pop
ulist.
‘•J admit that the minting of
silver, whether in a limited way or
in a free and unlimited way might
add to the market yalue of silver.
We are now 50 per cent below the;
level. How can tiiis country by
granting free mint/ge at the old
ratio make all the silver in the j
world double in value. If there is
ii statesman in the country that
can do it, pome forth.
Jfej* ' s add pi)
just as well take rag money pt once,
and make all the profit ourselves.
Silver is marketed as a commodity
like cotton. Its value is fixed in
the London market, and the quo
tations of these values fix values
everywhere. Can we, by tinkering!
with it at our little end of it, put
up the price of all the silver in the |
world?
“I have been criticised for voting
| for a higher ratio. I never take
j water. I may make mistakes, and
possibly it might pay me to bend
the pregnant hinges of the knee,
hut J had rather see this great
question settled intelligently, safe
ly, patriotically than any good
thing that might happen to me. I
am wedded to no ratio, but favor
any that will give to these people \
a sound and stable currency and ;
parity between the two metals.
“No man nor set of men, what
ever may be their power over rnv
future, can induce me to set up an I
arbitrary standard. When the {
Sherman bill was before us we
were limited to four or five years
propositions. Mr. Bland bad pro-!
posed free coinage at varying ra
tios between 10 to 1 and 20 to 1. j
I voted in that panic, when all
the world seemed to be shrinking
from silver as a money metal,
when I knew that the panic had
come as against the Sherman
notes that to change so as to coin
silver at 10 to 1 would, instead of
alleviating, aggravate our difficul
ties, I voted for too low instead of
too high a ratio. Time has vindi
cated my course. If we are to
come to a larger use of silver we
have got to go by gradual steps.”
He argued that a high ratio
would more certainly bring about
a parity between the metals. Be
gin at a high ratio, was his line,
and when we find ourselves secure,
take that other step. “The at
tempt at free silver coinage at
any ratio is an experiment, and
one that I believe fraught with
great danger and risk. I don’t
know that I’d vote for the same
ratio again. I cast that vote to
show my friendliness to beiuotal
lism, for I am a bimetallist.”
He argued against the proposition
to 20 would increase eveyv-~inwi
debt 25 per cent. .This country
had always been on u gold basis,
the standard of value for at least
twenty years had been gold alone.
Everything was measured by gold.
When a man -buys anything now
his prices are estimated in gold.
When you promise a' 1 man $l5O for
a horse, you promise him gold, or
its equivalent, and silver is only
subsidiary to it. Every debt is a
gold debt, and stands on that ba
sis. There is yet n i premium on
gold.
“The only-thing we are contend
ing about is, shall we keep these
currencies equal? It is nonsense
to say that a change of ratio will
increase a mail’s debt. Tlie minte
owner will have to bring up more
bullion to make a dollar, and it
will make every man more secure
against a rotten and depreciated
currency. An inferior dollar in-
j jures the poor.”
“From one side of the world to
| another the people are alarmed
about this silver question. It is
unsettled and chaotic. They are
alarmed in the great commercial
countries—in the far east—in In*
jtfa. If any of you will take out
your money right here you will
find that you have only silver
certificates and not greenbacks or
Sherman notes. The two latter
are redeemable in gold. These
great- capitalists send out only
what represents silver to buy your
cotton, while they keep gold and
what represents gold locked up in
their vaults. They fear panic,
and at the first sign of alarm you’ll
find that you have got the silver
and they the gold. Then you’ll
get depreciated money for your
products and your labor.”
He explained why he had voted
to coin the seigniorage, “Every
country can bear,” said he, “a
limited amount of inferior money,
but if increased the people become
alarmed, and the people would
hoard the good money, and reject
the bad. I voted for if because 1
believed that a limited coinage at I
present can be maintained. If I
shall he in the public council I
shall take no step to differentiate
the ourreey or to degrade either j
metal,"
“Some have said that we can take
: the silver standard—which we can
I do and do easily—and grow rich
beyond all the dreams of antiquity.
They say we cfui get all the trade
lof Mexico, South America, China
; and Jndia. Can they buy our cot
ton? Down in Argentina they
I are making wheat and driving out
every barrel of American dour.
! California wheat goes all around
South America to England, a gold
country. In Mexico, India and
China the lowest prices for pro-!
ducts and labor prevail. Shall we,

in the world, shall weWep down,

TO THE CREDIT OF DEMOCRACY.
A Congressman’s Review of tlie
Party’s Good Work.
James B. McCreary, chairman
of the foreign affairs committee,
and one of the democratic leaders
of the house during the present
session of congress, said to a rep
resentative of the press to-day:
“The house has passed more
good hills and enacted more im
portant legislation than any of its
predecessors in ten years, or any
with which I am familiar, and J
have been watching the course of
legislation for twenty years. The
j repeal of the purchasing clause of
! the Sherman silver act was of im
mense importance to the country.
We were in themidstof a financial
j panic when the president called]
i congress together, and after the
repeal of the hill the panic seemed i
to be checked. When the senate
passed it and the president ap
proved it the monetary condition
of the country improved and bank
failures ceased.
“Then a bill was passed repeal
ing the odious federal election law,
dispensing with supervisors and
marshals at the polls and wiping
from the statute books all statutes |
which menaced the freedom of the I
ballot.
“There has been important leg
islation reclaiming about 50,000,-
000 acres of public lands given by
republican congresses to railway
corporations, and which, under the
terms of the various acts, have not
-—— “ 7
been earned. These lands ought
to have been held for actual settle
ment, and should never have been
given to corporations.
“The Chinese exclusion bill,
which saved SB,(XX),(XX) by provid
ing legislation which the Chinese
accepted, rather than bo deported ;
the bills to give effect to the Beh
ring Sea awards, which regulated
our sealing interests in Behring
Sea, and the Hawaiian resolu f: ' s **'>
sustaining the president in with
drawing from the senate an
nexation treaty,
our government t 058,500,000
for the Ha "'ll ft an Islands, are
among ijYie g f >od and important
measures passed by the house.
“The tariff bill is not as sweep
ing and as .comprehensive as I de
sired, but it is the best tariff re
form bill since 1857, when a dem
ocratic congress amended the
Walker tariff of 1846, by reducing
tariff rates to an average of 18 per
cent. It should lie remembered
that the republican party has, by
its record, shown that it is a high
protection party, because when it
came into power the average rate
of duty was 18 per cent. From
1862 to 1866 it raised this rate to
an average rate of 40 per cent.; in
1888, to 41 per cent., and it reach
ed its culmination in 1890, when
the McKinley bill was passed, fix
ing the average rate at a fraction
under 50 per cent.
“The new tariff bill places wool,
salt, lumber, farming machinery,
cotton ties, cotton bagging, bind
ing twine and a number of other
necessary articles on the free list.
The duty on woolen goods and
clothing has been reduced from an
average rate of 98 per cent, to 48
per cent., and millions of dollars
annually will be saved to the peo
ple on clothing and woolen goods
alone, and the average rate under
the new tariff bill is 38 per cent.,
as againt an average of 50per cent,
in the McKinley bill.
“The sugar bounty, amounting
to $12,000,000 annually, has been
repealed, and, from my standpoint,
the tax of 2 per oent, on incomes
is a just and proper tax, and will
make these people who have grown
rich under the iniquitous legisla
tion of the republican party pay
their part of federal taxation.
Congress had to raise $80,000,000
annually in addition to the amount
already provided for to pay (he
necessary expenses of the govern
ment, and this could come only
from increased tariff taxation or
from a tax on incomes. And I
prefer the latter.
“The passage of the bills ena
bling Utah, Now Nlexico and Arizo* j
na to come into the Union are;
good bills,
“I am sure business will begin
reviving, now that the tariff bill
has become a law, Confidence is
always necessary to prosperity.
There has been a want of oonfidnee
for many months, but with the re
peal of the three great and im
portant acts passed by republicans,
to-wit: The purchasing clause of
the Sherman silver bill, McKinley
tariff bill and the federal election
laws, ami the feeling of security
that always comes after such im
portant legislation has been agreed
upon, in my opinion it is certain
to start business iiito the old chan
nels. Money is plentiful, the
crops are good, and, with return
ing confidence, there must lie re
timing prosperity.
“The expenses of the
have been reduced at this sesiofi of
congress in every department, upd
the aggregate appropriations arts
last
less than in the ppcond session of
the Heed eongress. Pension re
forms have also been inaugurated,
whereby fraudulent claims are be
ing dropped, and pension appro
priations have been reduced over
$80,000,000.
“Indeed I may say, ‘we have
fought a good fight, we have finish
ed the course, we have kept the
faith.’ We have done enough for
one session. We will go on with
the good work when congress meets
again.”
The Outlook For Cotton.
There appears to prevail in all
the American cotton markets a re
markable confidence that the crop
now putting in an appearance will
J lie an enormous one, and that,con
; sequently, prices are bound to go
I lower. The argument is that, with
] the present large surplus stocks,
and the rather unfavorable out
look for consumption, the world*
cannot stand a large cotton crop.
There can be no denying that the
growing season lias, until recently,
been a very favorable one, and
that, consequently, an (increased
yield is to be expected, ufitess the
crop meets with widespread disas
ter in the near future. There
have recently been excessive rains
in many districts, and the ac
counts of damage and poorer pros- ]
pects are decidedly more numerous ]
than many people are disposed to
admit to themselves. It must also
be borne in mind that the acreage
was not materially increased this
year.
There are many accidents that
may yet shorten the yield, as, for
instance, an unusually early frost.
Prices are very low at present, and
it would take but indifferent re
ports of damage to check all weak
ening influences, It would, thero- j
fore, appear **• -.oewnat remarkable
that tfle bearish feeling should be
, 0 widespread.
tr It is true that foreign trade in
manufactured goods is not as good
as it was, and American mills are
unquestionably experiencing a pe
riod of depression. On the other
hand, trade in Manchester may re
vive at any time, and there are
many signs that business is on the
mend in this country. It is gener
ally known that stocks of all kinds
are very small in jobbers’ hands in
the United States, and that even
manufacturers have no great accu
mulations. A revival of the de
mands is, therefore, probable at
any moment, arid the effect upon
manufacturing, and, consequently,
on the .demand for raw cotton,
would be considerable.
The Picayune, therefore,believes
that the cotton trade in this coun
try should not yield too readily to
