UNION & RECORDER. Milledgeville, September 14,188S, Democratic Nominations. For Governor, JOHN B. GORDON, of DeKalb. For Secretary of State, NATHAN C. BARNETT, of Baldwin. For Comptroller General, WILLIAM A. WRIGHT, of Richmond. For State Treasurer, ROBERT U. HARDEMAN, of Bibb. For Attorney General, CLIFFORD ANDERSON, of Bibb. For Congress—6th District, JAMES H. BLOUNT, of Bibb. For Senator 20th District, C. R. PRINGLE. For Representative, W. T. CONN. The. School of Technology. This is an interesting question just now. Several places want the school, and the time is coming nigh for the selection of the place. We have writ ten a good deal in the past year or two on the characteristics and great importance of ■ such an institution. The most that we have heretofore said on the subject was intended to show its great utility and, as far as We could, to influence our Legislators to make a suitable appropriation to establish it. As the legislature has made an appropriation of $65,000 to found it, the great question now is, where shall it be located? Of course the Commissioners will exercise the most scrupulous investigation and judgment in making the selection, not only as to convenience of situa tion but adaptability to the object in view, and at the least expense. The curriculum for a classical institu tion, such as the State University at Athens, necessarily varies considera- bl v from that of a Technological school; one includes the whole range of clas sical studies, such as latin, greek, french, and other modern languages, mathematics, natural and moral phi losophy, metaphysics and ethics, as tronomy, belle lettres, natural philoso phy, and history, including too, civil engineering, law r , and some other de partments of study. In an institu tion. in which all these branches of art and science are taught, an exten sive and varied apparatus is required with numerous professors to unfold such difficulties as the students in each may encounter. In technologi cal studies, the principles are fewer, and the rules required in making some simple engine, or water wheel, or gin gearing, may be applicable to other work, and the technological student rapidly acquires the art of producing any kind of machinery. In accom plishing any given work, he acquires principles applicable in the construc tion of other machinery, and in two or three years he may leave the insti tute qualified to be a useful artisan. In all such matters we, in our section, have been dependent upon Northern artisans, while, with our technolog ical schools we will soon be indepen dent of lother and distant sections for the services of every kind of artisan to fill the demands of our growing in dustries. This will keep at home millions of dollars heretofore lost for want of mechanical skill at home. This is the reason why schools of technology are so desirable. They, too, will be much less expensive than institutions of the kind first alluded to. In our opinion they should be separate from, and independent of, classical ’institutions. The expense will be much less in apparatus, and in the number of professorships. There is an incongruity in their con nection. All experience has shown that they prosper better w'hen dis connected from classical institutions; and now, finally, we state, that be cause of its centrality Milledgeville would be a better place for the insti tution than Athens or Atlanta. With the old and splendid Governor’s man sion at Milledgeville, (costing $75,000,) and twenty odd acres of land, with numerous houses, in the centre of that city, no place can be found in Georgia more suitable for the location of the technological institute. The injustice, heretofore, done to Milledge- viiie, it seems to us, should have much weight, especially with her splendid qualifications, in making her the seat of the technological school. Fatal Railroad Accident.—On Friday morning last a young lady, a niece of Mr. Charles Woodrow r of Ma con was killed by the down train of the Central Railroad from Atlanta. She had been rendered deaf and dumb by an attack of meningitis sev eral years ago. tthe was wearing a poke bonnet which prevented her from seeing the train and she was in capable of hearing the loud whistle of the locomotive. The coroner’s jury cleared Mr. Cleary, the locomotive engineer, of all blame in the matter. Condition in Charleston.—Aid is pouring in from all quarters of the Union. Over one hundred thousand dollars have been forwarded. Of course this affords only temporary and immediate relief, such as furnish ing food and shelter to those who have no places of safety for rest and necessary shelter from night dews and rains. It will take millions of dollars to make Charleston what she was be fore the disaster occurred. Mayor Courtney has returned and issued an excellent proclamation to the people, well calculated to afford confidence and inspire hope, under the trying circumstances of the situation. EDITORIAL GLIMPSES. The prohibitionists in Massachu setts have put out a prohibition ticket. The Arkansas Election.—The Legislature is largely Democratic. The losses and gains of the party are about equal. The Porte formally declares that Turkey will never consent that Rus sia shall occupy Bulgaria, Eastern Rumelia or any part of Turkey. Vermont has gone overwhelmingly for the Republicans. The Republi cans have elected 122 members to the House,the Democrats 18. Edmunds will be re-elected Senatorby|a great major ity. All this was expected. England will find out in the pro gress of events, that she committed a great error in not granting home rule to the Irish. This will not be clearly seen until after the Irish shall lose all hope of their own parliament. Mr. Sedgwick, in a card, denies the report that he disgraced himself by getting drunk at a ball at the Mexican capitol. He was sent to Mexico by Mr. Bayard, our Secretary of State, to make a thorough investigation of all the matters connected with the imprisonment and trial of Cutting. The Cuban Phenomena,—The springs which recently appeared near the village of Cribadelagna continue to'flow in undiminished volume and the inundation is increasing. The village, or a portion of it, is more than three feet under water and the panic stricken inhabitants are leaving in increasing numbers. The Gteronimo and other Indian captives will be sent to Fort Marion, Florida, with the exception of Geroni- mo and some others, who will be tried by a military commission. General Howard thinks that -to save their necks some of the hostiles will turn State’s evidence as was the case with the Modoc marauders. The Apaches gtart at once for the new homes as signed them. Professor Rutherford.—He is doubtful about rebuilding and may oc cupy one of the houses on the campus. When asked what loss by the fire he regretted most, he’ answered: “My grandfather’s family bible, in which were recorded the birth and death of my parents, and even my own chil dren. I regret losing this more than anything else.” He thought the fire was caused by rats and matches. This w r as the fifth time that the house has caught and once it w r as blazing through the roof. A story of the earthquake is told to the effect that a revival meeting was in progress in a certain neighbor hood in Putnam county. During a service at night, the earthquake came producing its customary effects of fright, etc., upon the people. But another thing happened that was a surprise of a different character. A man who lived near the church but who had paid no attention to the meetings—having attended none of them—came in and offered himself for membership and was received into the church. It was ascertained that he had retired to bed but the earth quake caused him to rise, clothe him self and proceed to the church, with the result above stated. The mass of the people witnessed Prince Alexander’s departure. The Prince stood up in his carriage bowing to the people and saying “Good bye, my brethren.” Many of the populace were affected to tears and expressed hearty wishes for his return. He is sued a manifesto before his departure full of affection forjthe people, express ing the opinion that his departure would save Bulgaria froifi great evils aud that he was willing to make any sacrifice for them who were more pre cious to him than life^ He goes di rectly to Darmstadt. His departure was a mournful ceremony. He had a kind word for all and repeated AU re- voir expressing the hope for happier times in the future. This he doubt less said to calm the excited people, but he could scarcely doubt that he was leaving them forever. The Atlanta Deadlock.—Why does Atlanta or Fulton county persist in acting in bad faith towards Cobb and Clayton counties, which with Fulton form the Senatorial district? Cobb is entitled to the Senator this time and vet the Fulton delegates have for 409 ballots voted for Rice of Atlanta, giv ing him six votes, while the other two counties have thrown six votes for the candidate named by Cobb county. This looks to an outsider as being an arrogant and unwarrantable proceed- ure and involving a shameful breach of good faith. How can Atlanta, which in fact rules Fulton, reconcile this action to its self-complacent and persistent claim to being the central point of everything that’s noble, gen erous and progressive in the State? Has Atlanta a valuable axe to grind in the next legislature? Charleston. A CURIOUS OCCURRENCE. When the church on Meeting street was destroyed in the great fire of 1861, a number of monuments and head stones in the churchyard, some of them dating back to the colonial times, were shattered. One of the marble columns which stood in the south side of the church, within a few steps of the street, survived the fierce flames. The intensity of the heat, however, caused the north face of the shaft to warp out till the marble slab was bent like a bow. Since that time it has been regarded as a great curios* ity by thousands of people. During the quake it was completely demol ished. REPORT OF VISITORS. Gentlemen of Philadelphia who vis ited Charleston said: “In this city of over sixty thousand inhabitants, not a public building, store or dwelling has escaped damage. Many lives have been lost, and a great number of persons seriously in jured. Mayor Courteney is working energetically, and is ably seconded by the capital Relief Committee. He is subdividing the city into districts, and with the aid of the clergymen of all shades of religious belief, is careful ly distributing the funds remitted to him, HUGE TRANSACTION. Read what Savoyard says about Farmers and Taxation. We copy from the Courier-Journal:- FARMERS AND TAXATION. NO. 19.—BY SAVOYARD. it is Congressman Charles T. O’Ferral of Va., found 246 Republicans in office in his Distriot when the present ad ministration come in. He went to work at once and in ninety days all but four of their places were occupied by democrats. Cotton Crop.—The opinions are various. Some think the yield will exceed that of 1885, others that it will fall short of it. We incline to the opinion that it will fall short of ’85. Money to Re-build the City.— Arrangements are being made to ob tain a large sum of money to repair all damages and make Charleston as beautiful as she ever was. There will be no difficulty in obtaining the funds and probably as low as three per cent interest. The amount of one hundred and ten thousand dollars has been received and a good deal more will have to be added to that sum, to meet immediate and pressing wants. This is a gratuity flowing from the benevolence of those who furnish it. Beyond that the people of Charleston do not expect or desire more moneta ry aid, and it is used alone to meet the ‘necessities of those who have not the means to relieve themselves from actual suffering. The millions that will be needed to restore Charleston as speedily as possible to its former con dition, will be in the nature of a loan. The credit of the city enables it to speedily secure it, and the work of restoration will go on with a cheerful energy that will soon make the city perhaps more resplendent, than ever before. The spirit of the people ex cites the admiration of everybody at home and abroad. _ Our County Roads.—There is quite a commendable spirit being manifested among our citizens in the directions of building up our growing erty* One thing, however, which is absolutely essential to the accom plishment of such a purpose, is rarely spoken of; and that is to secure a great improvement j n our county roads, rhe proper improvement of the prin cipal roads leading to Milledgeville, would push the outer boundary line of her trade for many miles further eT< ? lrec tion than those who glVen tlie matter careful consideration can imagine. A system of good roads is essential to such an enlargement of our trade as is alto gether withmfour power to secure. A BOOM FOR BIRMINGHAM—THE PROP ERTY INVOLVED. Birmingham, Ala., September 8.— One million dollars of the stock of the Pratt Coal and Iron Company has been sold to John H. Inman and oth ers, of New York, and Nathaniel Bax ter and A. M. Shook. The company has the largest bitu minous coal mines in the world. Nineteen-twentieths' of the stock is owned, besides the persons named, by Enoch Ensley, T. T. Hillman, John H. Inman, Nathaniel Baxter and A. M. Shook, of Tennessee. The company today determined to expend one mil lion dollars in the erection of four fur naces and Basic Bessemer steel works, at the town of New Pittsburg, six miles from Birmingham. Three more coal mines are also to be opened. This assures to the Birming ham district—within a radius of ten miles—twenty large hot blast coke furnaces, seven of which are now in blast, one repairing and twelve in process of erection. Besides these the Pratt Company will also make steel experiments with two million dollars capital at the town of Bessemer City, ten miles south of Birmingham.— Augusta Chronicle. Ordered to Vacate.—The facto ry operatives, at Augusta, have been ordered to vacate the houses. Super intendent Combs has posted notices to that effect that those willing to work may be accommodated. This, of course creates some degree of con sternation, as the cold weather is al most at hand. This decisive action demands immediate and serious con sideration. Those that will work and the new hands must have the houses. Operatives and mill owners should work together. They have no use for Knights of Labor or other outsiders. We have heretofore fully expressed our views and have no reason to change them. A correspondent of the Greensboro Herald notes the fact that on the ridge between the Oconee and Ogeechee rivers in this State there has been nineteen suicides in twenty years, and that all have occurred in one neigh borhood. This is indeed a remarkable feet, especially when it is remember ed that the country is sparsely settled and beyond the influence of any large city. It recalls the singular fact not ed recently in these columns that the largest number of suicides in any one class during the first six months of the year, were reported as occurring among farmers.—Macon Telegraph. "Necessity is the argument of tyrants; the creed of slaves.”—The Younger Pitt. In 1816 the advocates of a protective tariff said that it was necessary to pro tect our infant industries. We had just emerged from the second war with Great Britain and our people had an idea that we ought to live within and for, ourselves, having as little to do with the outside world as possible; so we adopted the protective policy by which the farmers of this country hired the manufacturers to give them a home market. The tariff adopted a dozen years later was so manifestly iniquitous that it came near resulting in a dissolution of the Union, but the compromise measure of 1832 reduced the duties on imports within the bounds of reason. During all this time the advocates of monopoly said that we were infants; that we could not stand alone, and if we ventured away from home the paupers would eat us blood raw. Here we have a country immense in extent, boundless in resources, with a population of 60,000,000, capable of supplying the wants of a world. We have rapid transit from ocean to ocean; we have machinery in motion that performs the labor of millions of men and horses; we have whatever there is of benefit in republican gov ernment and a written constitution; we have inexhaustible supplies of raw material; we have universal suffrage aud universel education; we have a virgin soil of wonderful fertility; Are have such a climate as has in all ages blessed the dominant races, and yet, we tremble in our boots whenever it is suggested that we compete with other nations in the walks of trade. The mere fact that there is a change of seasons is an argument for free trade. No ship that ever sailed the deep is anything but an argument for free trade. Every river, every rail way, every turnpike, every vehicle is an argument for free trade, Free trade means the universal brotherhood of man; it means univer sal peace and universal prosperity. It makes every man a citizen of* the world and a free man. If it were practised by every nation on the globe for a double decade, all the ar mies and all the navies of Europe, di rected by the genius of a Nepoleon and the heroism of a Nelson, could not re-establish the protective policy. It would give to every man the right to sell what he had to. him who would give most for it, and buy what he de sired to buy from him who would sell it to him cheapest. It would stimu late the energies and the industry of all peoples and tongues, because ev ery man would reap the fruits of his labor. Wky h« did apt Gome. Greensboro, Ga., September 10.— The failure of Rev. Dr. T. DeWitt Talmage to attend the recent Betha ny centennial was the cause of great disappointment. A letter has just been received from him, in which he says: H. D. Smith—Dear Sir: Your letter reached me weeks after the centennial of Bethany had been celebrated. But all my time was engaged so that I could not have come. I cannot tell how much J would have enjoyed be ing present. The opportunity of see ing the place of Uncle Samuel’s labors —the nearness to the late home of my lamented friend, Governor Stephens, and the privilege of meeting so many of the good people of the South, would have been a great gladness to me. Many thanks for your letter and all the encouraging words you write. In some way convey to the “Old Bethany church” nay high apprecia tion of their invitation. The name of Samuel K. Talmage in all branches of our family stands for everything good, gracious and glorious. That old race of ministers, what noble men they were, exemplifications of the gospel they preached. Now enthron ed ! May we be faithful until we meet them! OH! MY BACK strata ar nH amd aearlj I BROWS, Bts!7 strata ar arid attacks that weak back aad acarlf prostrates yea. Burned to Death.—Lincolnton, Ga., Sept. 7.—Miss Jane Murray, of this county, aged about 70 years, was sitting near the 3tove in the dining room, yesterday, when her clothing caught fire. Her screams brought her neice, Mrs. Fuller, to her assis tance, but all efforts to extinguish the flames were fruitless until she was burned in a horrible manner. Dr. Sims, the attending physician, pro nounced it the most horrible case of burning he ever saw. She lingered five hours and death relieved her. The spectacle was truly revolting. On the other hand, a protective tar iff confines a nation to its own limits. The markets of the world are closed to t. Its commercial marine either de cays as ours decayed; or is kept alive by the stimulating process of subsidy. The protected manufacturer is confin ed to a home market for his pro ducts. He does not reach out and trade and traffic with all the world. His Government has said to the con sumers of the land that they shall buy their products from the home manufacturers, and thus the rights of one are violated and the energies of the other enervated. Protection acts upon the manufacturing industries as intoxicants upon the physical man. A taste for the poison is acquired and finally it becomes a necessity, result ing in a delirium that sees all the pau pers of Europe in one frightful dream. In our country protection has built up a great number of manufacturing communities. The six New England States, New York, New Jersey, Penn sylvania and Ohio, are the seats of these enterprises. They have a mar ket in the South and West for their products, and, as a consequence, they do not go out into the world to com pete with England and France and Germany and Holland for the world’s trade. They are protected, but the farmer who has built them must find a foreign market for his cotton, wheat, pork and tobacco. He must come in contact with the paupers. His is not an “infant” industry, and has not been since Adam was a gardener. The farmers in the country should organize. They should study the tar iff question. They should make the candidates tell them what the tariff is, and why he is for protection. Let them agitate agitate. Let them kick, kick, kick, and when a protec tionist is a candidate, let them see that the manufacturers don’t elect him. Let them wash their hands of all such politicians and put up free traders, or tariff reformers, if they have to draft them from among those whom the politicians call cranks. Let them rigidly pursue this policy and by and by they will obtain justice. A blank crop report was sent out by a paper for the farmers to fill out, and the other day one of them came back with the following, written on the blank side in pencil: “All we’ve got in this neighborhood is three widders, the hog cholera, too much rain,'about fifty acres ’taters, and a durn fool who married a crosseyed gal because she owns eighty sheep and mule, which the same is me, and no more at present.” The earthquake opened an oil well near Blount Springs, Alabama. It cracked the earth and it is reported that pure petroleum has been oozing out ever since. The Winchester Leader predicts an early winter because migratory birds are going South a month earlier than usual. Philadelphia has subscribed nearly $30,000 to Charleston.
