Were extraordinary efforts put forth In that state by the Republi cans for the purpose of humiliating the Democratic candidate? Vlcter Smith assents In the New York Press that every time Richard Cnoker made a bet on the recent election be went Into Wall street and hedged by pure bas ic, * stocks st tha low figures that pre vailed Just before the contest at the polls According lo Mr. Smith, Croker knew that If McKinley should be elected the storks would advanco In price as a oonaequene* sufficiently to counterbalance his election beta, while If Bryan ware elected him beta would be sufficient lo wipe out his loaaes on tha street. Mr Smith calculates that Mr. Croker’s Wall street deals Wiu not only pay bis bets, but leave hm many thousands la the scad In the xaartaa Slll THS.It V MIA TO TUI- PROStT. In commenting a day or two ago on tht necessity for a reorganisation of tha Dem ocratic early Mr. Carlisle express'd th* opinion that Southern Democrats should taka tha lead In the matter, for th* ret son rhat Democrats of the South are th* basis of th* party. This opinion Is worth vory careful consideration The real hou.h la solidly Democratic. There are only a tew elate* u, th* North which, a. or ding to th* recant election, have a majority of Democrats. We do not believ* that the prepent l the time for attempting a reorganization hut when the time comes, the South ought to sake the plac* sleighed to her by Mr Carlisle be,*ue she I* hatter fitted o lead the party back to tha principles with which it won so many victories before It became mixed up with the heresies of Populism and silver Republicanism, and to dee, with th* new condition* wish which ihe people ara confior:ted There are danger* In organised capital for which there must be a remedy, and there w a spirit of commerclallpm Hi poßtlcs which must he checked In the North ant, ng Democrat* a well s< among Republicans, th* dollar dominates every thing Such is not She esse in the South, mainly for the reason probably that thera Is comparatively little wealth here.and the willingness therefore to make everything secondary to money is not eo great There I# atlll strong attachment to the early purposes of the republic. The people feel that If tha republic la ta endure every thing must not be sacrificed to money get ting. There k> no doubt tha! the tendency of iho Republican patsy will be more ihm ever, since Its great victory of last Tuet •lay, towards the centralisation of power, and that it will be to a greater extent than ever before under th* domlnaisoh of capital In she hands of trusts and syndi cates Is almost certain. If the govern ment M to ha kep! In Ihe control of the paeipl#. therefore, it tnnil be by the Dem ocratic party, and It ihust be by a Dem ocratic patsy reorganised and largely di rected by tha South, because, a* already stated. Southern Democrats are much lea* under the Influence of the money power than those of tb* North. IhDCPEftiyiLTT ELECTOR* IN THE ROl Ttf- The Macon Telegraph does not think that tha South has much to hope for from either the Democrats or the Repub licans off th# North. Tlirrefore It suggests that the "South should go Into th* atac *°TSl college Independent of any party of the North, at least until they repeal th* fifteenth amendment, and there make term*." Th* plan might be made effective, but It 1* not exactly clear how. Th* electors hav* no autholrty to do anything except to cast their votes. They cannot m-dto terms, if they should vote contrary to the wishes of those who elected them they would provoke s revolution. Wtfh whom. therefore, could th# Southern elector# make terms? Certainly not with th# party leaders. Th# leaders could not go outside of tho platforms of their respective parties. They would hove no power to do to. That being th* case the South would b* Just as Well oft by making a choice of a platform before th* election. Tarty policies ars formed In national oonventiona On new questions they sometime* originals In Oongrras. As far as w# can see, the South's only chanc* to mak* her Influence fell for her special benefit In national affairs, I* to send her ablest men to the national convention* of tho party of her choice, and to Congress Bine# th* War of Secession she has been altogether too willing to follow tha lend ot tha Northern I >*moerary Her public men should ba mor* Independent. There were abler statesmen In the South prior to th* War of Secession than In any other part of tha country, and there ara men ta th* South now who ar* better fitted to Bad tb* Democratic party than thd*a who have been directing Its fortune* m racert years W* may not ** the ntlr# scop* of th* T*dgm.ph' plan, but what w* do see of tt does not appear to be practical. EVII)EX( E or A TRUST. Purlnr th# campaign Senator Hanna aatd there were no trust* What do*** hr <tell tha combination which has retard the pries of all kind* of meat on* cent a pound? If Uier* were not a meat trust why I* It that the prtfe w* raised by ail the packers at tha same time? Another Interesting question I*, why was not tbs price raised unlit after tb* elec tion? Waa tha truat afraid that If tt put up the price before elect 100 there would be eelampede from fhe Republican party? And why would It not ba aa willing for cha Demorratio party to aucraad aa tha Republican party’ la not tha answer plain? Tha Republican party la lha friend of truat*. No doubt they contributed much of tha money with which tha alac tlon waa won by tha Republicans. It Is useless for the Republicans to aay. after this evidence that the trusts favor ed them, that they are not friendly to trusts. It la a safe prediction that-during the neat four years there will be nothing done to check lha trust evil. The trusts will own the government as completely as If they had purchased It and paid their money for U. The packers say that they have been selling meat at a loss for ala months Would they be willing to show thetr books to prove that statement? If they have been losing how la It they have been pay ing dividends? Why la If that there ha* been nothing heard lo the effect that th< great packing firms wars lending towards bankruptcy? By raising the price of all kinds of meat one cent a pound It Is estimated that tha packers will put 135.0,0t> a year In their pockftw And rau ti of this money will ! come from poor people—people who can not afford to pay more than they were ; paying before the raise—and It doesn't ap i pear that • single cent of this vast sum it In I" to tha meat producers— the faf | mers and cattle raisers. Tie Increase m . tha price of meat la one of the ftrat fruits I of tha recent Republican victory. ■■ . ■ . From the midst of the Ktygian gloom there comes tha hollow. bl-mtatllc voice of one crying out tn despair ''Civilisation Is threatened." It says, "and nothing short of a phenomenal movement can save |t."

Man, of th* matters that are taken be fore th* Legislature should ba placed within the Jurisdiction of county commla gltiners and city councils. There ought to be general laws covering many other things And the Legislature wastes a good deal of time doing practically nothing Ii will toon ba three weeks tinea the present session began, and what has been accom plished? It has hardly got to work In rarnast. Th* politicians ara of course against biennial pensions But when wer# they ever In favor of economy?
