Let’s get what is promised ami think hereafter. The President has appointed A. W. Greely, of Arctic fame, to be Chief Signal officer with the rank of Brigadier General. Now that the bureau has a head, proba bly there will be some stability about the weather. The Alabama legislature has adopted a resolution calling upon the members of Congress from that State to support the gigantic steal known as the Blair Educa tional bill The asses of this world are indeed numerous. The legislatures of New .Jersey and West Virginia have resumed ballotting for Sen ators to represent those States. It would be well lor the Democratic party should each of these really intellectual bodies ad journ sine die and the members thereof seek some quiet nook where they can, without interference or hope of rescue, hang themselves.

ATLANTA’* MANV NEEDS. Atlanta is in want of numerous manu facturing industries, among which may be enumerated the following: Agricultural implements, all kinds; boots and shoes; broomsand brushes ; carriages; cars, rail road ami street; clothing,all kinds ; cooper age, all kinds; cutlerly, all kinds; canning, fruits and vegetables; cotton goods, all kinds; edge tools, a’.’ kinds; furniture, general; furniture, chair; flour mills; glass, all kinds; hardware, building, all kinds; hardware, saddlery; hosiery and knit goods; hats ami caps; ink of all kinds; leather, finished; mantels, slate and marble; mattresses and spring beds; machinery, all kinds; pickles, prrtterves and sauces ; roofing ami rooting materials; •addlery ami harness; stoves, all kinds; soap and candles; steam heating appara tus; sewing machines; tobacco, all forms; vinegar; woodenware; wagons; woolen goods, all kinds. The linos named are mainly those which may be regarded as necessities, and which the wan’s of the consumer compel him to buy, whether the times are good or bad. The Manufacturers' Association lias adopted the policy of encouraging the establishment of the industries named, which, with suitable capital ami proper management, cannot fail of success. The advantages of Atlanta as the manu facturing center of the Cotton States may be briefly stated as follows : Ist. The railway center of the Cotton States. 2. A location in the heart of the cotton belt, with an elevation of 1,085 feet above sea level, giving a cool, healthful and in vigorating climate. 3. The natural climatic trade center of the Cotton States. The Cotton .States embrace an area of 692,000 square miles, with a population of 14,000,000. A few manufacturing establishments in this vast territory cannot supply a tithe of the wants of the millions who occupy it, offering a wonderfully profitable field for the northern manufacturer with his sagac ity, energy, experience and capital. The Atlanta Manufacturers’ Association will take pleasure in answering all inqui ries from parties seeking information with a view to locating in Atlanta. The above is from the special corres pondence of the Manufacturers’ Record, published at Baltimore, Md., and is from the pen of Col. E. Hulbert, Secretary of the Atlanta Manufacturers’ Association. It sets forth in a clear and concise manner Atlanta’s many needs in the manufactur ing line. The Manufacturers’ Record, as the special exponent of Southern manu facturing interests, has a very large circu lation, and is more generally read by Northern manufacturers and experts than . any other publication of the kind in the [ country; and so general an announce- THE EVENING CAPITOL: ATLANTA. GEORGIA. THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 17, 1887. ment to capitalists of the country as to the needs of the community must be fruitful of result. Our Manufacturers’ Associa tion is doing good work in thus setting forth not only our wants but the profita ble openings to the Northern manufac turer. rm-: <;o<vi»7r question. This title would indicate that we intend ed to say something of the system adopted by Georgia in dealing will) this unfortu nate class; but such is not the case. That system is thoroughly understood and needs no comment at all. We merely in tend to call attention to a bill introduced into the Wisconsin legislature by a Mr. Egery for the solution of the convict labor problem which merits careful examina tion. It includes in its provisions for the government of prisons some of the best suggestions which have been made by students of social science. According to a brief abstract of the bill, “It provides for the employment of convicts for the benefit of such institutions and the coun ties and state ; that all convicts under the control of the state and county officers, and all inmates of reformatory institutions engaged in manufacturing articles for general consumption, shall receive quar terly wages equal to the amount of their earnings, to be fixed from time to time by the authorities of the institution, from which board, lodging and clothing and the costs of trial shall be deducted, the balance paid to their families or dependents; in case none such appear the amount shall be paid to the convict at the expiration of the term ot imprisonment ” There is in this a recognition of the fact that convicts are human beings and of the other fact that it is a part of the state’s object in shutting up criminals to fit them for an honest life when they are let out. One of the influences operating to drive them back to a life of crime is the want of money and the difficulty of finding em ployment. It is proper that they should be supplied with a reasonable sum of money and if the amount is contingent upon their earnings while in prison they will be none the worse prisoners for the knowledge that they are’working for themselves. The restriction of their em ployment to goods which the state needs in its charitable and penal institutions may be noted also as obviating most of the objections brought against the con tract system which brings low priced con vict labor into direct competition with free and honest working men. Nor is the proposed system merely ex perimental. for it has been tried with re sults in Pennsylvania which are so excel lent that the Illinois legislature has just epacted a law providing for its introduc tion into the prisons of that state. Its manifest merits ought to commend it to tli<A favorable consideration of every hu manitarian where the system of legal ser vitude is in vogue. It is the only feasible plan we have seen suggested whereby the true object of judicial punishment, the vindication of law and the reformation of the criminal, can be obtained. CAPITOL CRAYONS. Wk step a little aside from the usual course of things, and produce for the benefit of our readers, the following interesting letter from the pen of Dr. J. W. Scott, of this city. The letter is clipped from the St. Lous Christian Advocate of the 9th inst. No apology is neces ary for reproducing one so interesting and enter taining: John Ruskin won his spurs as an art critic when fresh from the halls of Oxford. His Mod ern Painters, his Stones of Venice and such else of the same trend have secured him a perma nent place amongst the English classics. In these latter years he has given a large share of his attention to Political Economy, and recently to the Labor Problem. Indeed, there is jnst now no little solicitude in all circles with refer ence to this question. Journalists and pam pleteers are discussing it with more or less ac rimony of both style and temper. Henry George and Grand Master Powderly are becoming notorious, if not famoas. Many persons who are not particularly nervous are alarmed at the political outlook; and it may happen before this generation has p assed away that these ominous strikes will develop into a first-class revolution. It is easy enough to pooh-pooh such prophe cies, but meanwhile the discontent of the masses widens and deepens, and in an unlooked for hour ’ the explosion comes and Anarchism or Cvsar ism is the dreadful alternative. Mr. Ruskin, to whom we have just referred, in a late publication—Tide and Time —considers the question from both a Scriptural and com mon sense standpoint, and reaches what appears to us the eminently just conclusion, that if set tled at all without the use of dynamite, in must be done on the basis of the Golden Rule. Dr. Hawthorne, a distinguished Bcpti t minister, has advanced similar views in a Tecent sermon. Our young friend, Rev. Howard Crumley, told us a tew days ago that he was studying the question. That is commendable. The pulpit cannot utterly ignore the issue, and yet it would be well for clergymen, old and young, to keep in mind that the simple preaching of the Gospel is the mightiest agency for the uplifting of the masses. We are indebted to Colonel Stocks, an excel lent layman of this city, fora late issue of Zion’s Herald. It contains some appreciative notices on Sam Jones, and shows that the great evan gelist has deeply impressed the people of the ’■Hub.” As to literary merit the Herald is quite up to its standard when it was conducted by Gilbert Haven. It savors less, however, of the pronounced Negrophilism of the Garrison and Darker school. For some years we have had no little journalistic twaddle about a “New” South. The prospect for a “New” North is quite as promising. A very slight knowledge of history and of the great law of continuity of species would teach these political optimists that their plans are Utopian and their predic tions not more reliable than Vennor’s weather prophecies. The differences between the two civilizations (North and South) are radical, and will remain when Bartholdi’s statue of Liberty shall have become as absolete as Cleopatra’s needle or the Colossus of Rhodes. Meanwhile George W. Cable may continue bis caricatures cf the Creoles and his gainful jeremiads on the wrongs of the fr- edmen. As an offset Colonel Grady will, we trust, live to enjoy many more New England society banquets. Brother Dunlap, whom you know as the late Commissioner ot Education, has recently returned from Colum bia, S. C., where he received at one time about seven hundred members of the A. M. E. Church in America. This reminds us of what Bishop Key told us of scooping up an entire presiding elder’s district of the M. E. Church in Texas. Such achievements indicate anything but a “New” South in the Bostonian sense. My ven erable confrere, Dr. Edwards, twite this corre spondent on the brevity of his letters. We know Dr. Edwards but slightly, but we under stand well enough he is genial, dapper clergy man of the Old Dominion stamp, a facile writer and ready speaker. When Macauley said of a certain two volume biography of a very com mon place individual that its size was better suited to the Antediluvian age when men lived several hundred yeais than to modern times when three score and ten was the allotted term of human life, be uttered a truth that deserves frequent restatement. The coming of Judge Finch, the far-famed Temperance orator, is an event of great local interest. His address last Sunday afternoon at the Opera House was greatly enjoyed by a very large audience, and it is thought will im part a fresh impetus to the Prohibition move ment. Whilst the consumption of whiskey has been greatly lessened in the city by recent pro hibitory legislation, yet our city map is dotted with wine-rooms that exist by the cheaply pur chased grace of the present license law. It may be true as has been quaintly said that “the vine is not one of the Devil’s inventions,” vet its product, except, for sacrimental or medicinal purposes ought not to be tampered with. What is worse than wine-rooms, are in most cases the old-time doggeries with a slight circumbendi bus. Our Prohibition leaders are intent on their extirpation, and we heartily bid them Godspeed. Folios must give way to duodecimos, long winded homilies to short sermons, and even Dr. Edwards’ capital letters are good in an inverse ratio to their length. John Sterling, the ablest editor of the London Times, seldom wrote more than half column editorial and yet it was talked of at the Paris bourse and closely canvassed at St. Petersburg. Every newspaper writer should carry a pocket condenser. Dr. Morrison has been with us now only a few weeks and his preaching has become the town talk. His congregations are immense and a goodly number have been already received into the church. He is also indedefatlgable in pas toral visitation. In all respects he is showing himself “a workman that needeth not be ashamed.” The death of Chief Justice Jackson you have noted with suitable comments. It would be difficult to estimate his worth to the churches in this city and to the conference at. large. The Lord be gracious to to his stricken family. We had a novelty last week in the shape of a bench and poultry show. It seems to have been well furnished and liberally patronized. We trust it may contribute to a reduction in the prices of eggs and turkeys, of which this corre spondent is particularly fond. Like our old friend, Rev. G. J. Pierce, of blessed memory, we have no great relish for “fried chicken" and as little fancy for dogs of either high or low de gree. That part of the performance has no attraction for us. I was near forgetting the advent of the Salva tion Army. At present the organized force is but a corporal’s detail and the movement seems designed for a reconnoissance more than for actual conllict. We have attended none of their services, and have but little knowledge of their method here or elsewhere. We doubt if we have read fifty lines of all that has been published of their ope rations. It is possible to conceive of a move ment of the sort that prudently managed might be productive of much good in the larger cities. And while we are no great admirers of mere ecclesiasticism, we confess to grave doubt as to the vitality of evangelistic work outside the church. The church was divinely instituted and is God’s ordinance for the world’s conver sion and hitherto and henceforth other schemes have proved and are likely to prove of little permanent value. Many brethren are inclined to look favorably upon the movement, but all have agreed that the time has not yet come for pulpit recognition. What as some claim has accomplished a good wnk in Londen, Liverpool and other great cen ters, may not be adapted to Atlanta and kindred localities. In our judgment it is wise to wait and see future developments. Payne’s Chapel and Evans’ Chapel are both planning for better and larger houses of wor ship. The former is an offshoot of First church. The latter, the oldest daughter of Trinity. The mother churches will doubtless give them sub stantial aid. At the last preachers’ meeting a committee consisting of J. W. Lee, W. F. Glenn and W. J. Scott submitted a memorial paper concerning the life and character of Judge Jackson, which was unanimously adopted and ordered to be published. One resolution suggested an annual sermon commemorative of the distinguished dead on the duties and responsibilities of Christian lay men. If properly observed it will benefit the living and at the same time honor the memory of one “whose praise is in all the churches.’* Bread at the Insane Asylum. A writer in the Milledgeville Union and Re corder speaking of the insane asylum says : “Three thousand biscuit for breakfast” sounds prettv loud to a newspaper man or a hungry tramp, but I saw Will Stanley make more than that this msrning, and they were all consumed at breakfast. He used a whole barrel of flour to make them, but made them by machinery, however, and bad a man to help. Yet it took onlv about three-quarters of an hour to tnake, bv exact count, threS thousand, three hundred and forty-four. I" addition to that he makes six hundred and thirty loaves of light bread every morning. He is a very rapid baker, and asking me to time him I found that he made there six hundred and thirty loaves in just forty eight minutes. In addition to that they make in the main kitchen twenty-four hundred pones of corn bread dailr, twelve hundred twice a day, to say nothing of what is made in the male and female convalescent and the negro kitchens. So in bread alone we see that the State has a pret ty large family to feed. Al Concordia Hall.

Brother Dana is correct if he means Atlanta beer. Fifteen cents for a pint bottle, half fu’l very warm, and drank in a closet with one eye watching for a peeler, is the way it is sold here. AN EXHIBITION OF UNSELFISHNESS. The Montgomery Evening Capital publishes the following as the naked truth : The charity ball in New York was alleged to be for the purpose of getting clothes for the poor, but a man that was there says that the ladies who dar.ced needed clothes worse than anybody he bad seen in a month. The ladies wished to show Low unselfish they were. With but little clothing for themselves, they were working to clothe others. SOMETHING THAT MACON KNOWS NOTHING ABOUT. A morning daily in Atlanta, backed by capi tal, character and capacity, would start Geor gia on boom. Such an enterprise in Macon would have no effect on Georgia, whatever. TRUSTING IN WHOM? We would like for the editor of the Savannah Times to tell us who he is trusting in when he says: We trust that the Thomasville, Tallahas see and Gulf Railroad Company will soon be built. An Ifiditor Relieved. Office Daily and Weekly Herald, Jacksonville, Fla., Jan. 15, 1887. Swift Specific Co., Atlanta, Ga.: Gentlemen : Up to two years ago I had had a severe case of sciatic rheumatism for three years. I tried the best physicians and medicines, but without getting any permanent relief. Finally I tried Swift’s Specific (S.S S.), and before I had fin ished a dozen bottles, I was entirely well, and I have not felt a single pang of rheu matism from that day to this. Yours respectfully, John T. Graves. A Little Memorandum. Swift Specific Company: Gentlemen —After I had rheumatism for four years in my right hip,l tried S. S. S. It at once built up my health and the rheumatic pains were allayed, and finally disappeared entirely. I regard it as the best possible tonic ; and it never fails to bring my system up to the best condition whenever run down by sickness or over work. I have come to regard S. S.
