THE SAVANNAH DAILY TIMES

The House of Representatives of the
Legislature of Pennsylvania hare, by a
unanimous vote, adopted the concurrent
resolution of the Senate pledging the faith
of the State for an appropriation of SIO,OOO
to aid the Pennsylvania exhibit at the
World’s Exposition in New Orleans. Flor
ida and Tennessee follow in a few days, each
for a like amount.
Ben Butler has brought a libel suit for
defamation of character against the Boston
Herald, placing his damages at $25,000.
Wonder if Ben’s well-known cheek is so
exhaustless as to enable him to imagine
that any jury in the United States can be
empaneled, who will value his character at
anything like $25,000. If he gets twenty
five cents he will do well.
It is cheering to see that at least one
County in Georgia is not complaining of
hard times. The Hawkinsville Dispatch
declares that there is more meat and corn
in that part of the State, more money in the
pockets of the farmers, and,less indebtedness
generally, than at any period since the war.
It says: “The outlook is indeed cheering
to the farmers and merchants alike. Econ
omy and industry will soon make the coun
try wealthy.”
THE MUNICIPAL TICKET.
The ticket for Mayor and Aidermen at
the election which takes place in this city
on Tuesday next is completed by the ac
tion of the mass meeting at the theatre
last night, and our community is to be
congratulated upon the result. Eight of
the old Board, who have experience in the
administration of city affairs, have consent
ed to serve with Mayor Lester, whose re
nomination has given entire satisfaction
The four new candidates selected
last night are citizens well
and favorably known in the com
munity, one < f whom has efficiently
served the city in the past. As the ticket
now stands, it is a strong one, and should, as
we believe it will, re eive the cordial sup
port of every registered voter. It is
whispered around, however, that there
will be an independent or opposition ticket
in the field. There does not seem to be
occasion for this, and the Times trusts that
the rumor is inco-rect. The ticket pre
sented is the ticket of the Democratic party
of Savannah, and represents the best inter
osts of the city. That it will be elected,
there is not a shadow of doubt, and any fac
tious opposition to it should be completely
“snowed under” by the ballots of the regis
tered voters cf Savannah. With such a
Board as «iow pretented, the citizens of
Savannah may rest assured that their inter
ests will be faithfully and efficiently
guarded.
THE DRUMMER'S LICENSE.
The Carpet Trade and Review, of New
York, in its January issue contains an arti
cle in reference to the tax levied by the
city of Savannah on drummers, in which the
editor seeks to intimate that the spirit actu
ating the authorities of Savannah in this
matter is attributable to sectional feeling.
This is an exceedingly silly declaration, and
the able editor is hard pressed for an argu
ment when he presents in support of his
supposition the statement that a Savannah
paper—the Times—expressed regret that
the marble for the new Capitol building
could not be obtained from Georgia
quarries, instead of from Indiana—
not Maine—as the Carpet Trade
and Review has it. A feeling of
State pride has ever been considered com
mendable, and that the people of Georgia
should have preferred that her Capitol be
constructed of marble from her own quarries
is no “significant indication” of a sectional
spirit. The Trade and Review is there
fore wrong in its opinion that “the spirit
which prompts the tax on commercial
travelers is precisely the same as that
shown in the opposition to the purchase of
the Indiana stone.” Indeed, it may be said
that the sentiment of Savannah is decidedly
in favor of the abolishing of the drummer’s
tax, and petitions to Council on the subject
numerously signed have been repeatedly
presented, and the movers have also favored
a repeal of the tax. Something has
been accomplished, as the tax has been
reduced for the present year, and the com
mercial travelers appear to be satisfied.
The Trade and Review, in concluding its
article, acknowledges that this desire to
“protect home industry” by taxing drum
mers is not a distinctively Southern trait
for it displays itself quite as strongly and
frequently in other sections of the country,
and says: “It is to be hoped that before
long the United States Courts will take up
this matter of taxes on travelers and so
convince some skeptical persons that the
framers of the Constitution meant that
trade between the various States should be
absolutely free. In places where such a
ruling would be too unpalatable to be borne
the intelligent and enterprising inhabitants
might find a partial remedy and one per
fectly consistent with their logical methods
by tearing up all the railroad tracks leading
into their towns.”
THE SAVANNAH DAILY TIMES, SUNDAY, JANUARY 18, 1885.
THE IRON AGE.
The late Governor Henry A. Wise, of
Virginia, in his admirable work entitled
“The Seven Decades of the Union,” speaks
of the early times of the Republic as the
era of “The Humanities.” Those were the
days when, under the old condition of
things, men felt great respect for the courte
sies and amenities of life, and something
else was thought of than the mere making
of money. Then, in the South especially,
genial hospitality, warm blo'ded generosity
ard human feeling among men prevailed,
and the dominant sentiment was to en
courage and assist the struggling and to
cultivate sociabi ity, politeness and friend
liness. It was a period properly characterized
by Governor Wise as “the age of the Hu
manities.”
With the war, however, a new condition
of affairs was inaugurated, which Mr. Wise
happily describes as “The Iron Age.” The
Soufli, defeated in the conflict, emerged
therefrom ruined, and struggling under the
heavy burdens of poverty, and with her citi
zens, formerly in the enjoyment of ample
wealth, on the verge of destitution. No
longer could they afford the lavish display
of hospitality which was their former pride
and boast, and there no longer existed the
leisure or the ability to cultivate genial
and generous qualities. Every man was
forced to bend his energies to the support and
maintenance of himself and those dependent
on him, and the hard, stern, selfish
law of business succeeded the kindliness and
liberality of the olden time. The charities
and sociabilities of life yielded to the con
suming desire to amass wealth rapidly, and
worship of the almighty dollar took the
place of love for humani y. The result was
that a class of money makers, usurers and
extortioners have arisen in the South, whose
only motto is, “Every man for himself’ and
whose only object is to gain wealth at any
cost. The poverty which has steadily pre
vailed has given these men a power and
influence which has made itself felt through
out the body politic, and, as a rule, every
thing like regard for the welfare of fellow
men has been absorbed by cold-blooded
selfishness. It has naturally followed that
it is no longer the man characterized by
loving, genial qualities, who receives con
sideration. but every man’s worth has come
to be measured by the length of his purse.
This was the legitimate consequence of
the destitution which followed in the wake
of the defeat of the South, and those who
remember the pleasant days of the past cans
not but regret the unfortunate change from
the Humanities to the Iron Age. But the
cloud is not without its silver lining. The
South was forced to start life afresh, as it
were, and to build up her fortunes shattered
by the war. At last this is being done,
and with the return of wealth and prosperity
will come a renewal of the old regard for
the warmth of life, and a more liberal treat
ment of man by man. The return to the
Humanities will be slow, because wealth will
be in the hands of new men, and it takes
three generations to make a gentleman such
as belonged to the Old School. One of the
generations has passed,and the second is now
in existence. With the coming will be a
revival of ante-bellum sentiment, and
the New South will begin to resemble,
in this respect, the Old. That the South
will soon be herself again, and that nothing
may ever happen to check her onward
career in progress, prosperity and power is
the sincere, heartfelt wish of all her devoted
sons and well wishers.
7VLE SHERMAN-DA VIS CONTROVERSY.
If that can be called a controversy which
is only being carried on by one side, the
i “Sherman-Davis controversy” still seems to
excite unduly our Radical contemporaries.
They reason that General Sherman has
filed his side of the case with the War De
partment, and that his paper shows up the
“inner life” of the Confederacy; that Mr.
Davis has a perfect right to reply, and the
issue is purely between these two men.
General Sherman’s defenders, in putting
the issue between Mr. Davis and himself in
this shape are simply begging the question.
The country does not care for, nor is it
specially interested in, the “inner life” of
the Confederacy, and Sherman’s friends
evidently ardently desire that Mr. Davis
will make a reply so as to divert public at
tention from the very unpleasant predica
ment in which Gen. Sherman finds hijnself,
in consequence of the rash utterances he
made at the St. Louis G. A. R. banquet.
So far as Mr. Davis is concerned, he has
been fully vindicated of the charge that he
was conspiring to establish a military dicta
torship in the South, with himself as Dic
tator. Prominent Southern men in the
U. S. Senate, who were familiar with Mr.
Davis’ record during the war, have unani
mously and positively declared that such
a story is an absurd canard, and there is no
> man who lived in the South while the war
was going on but knows that Mr. Davis
never manifested any such disposition
What private individuals thought, or may
think, is of little consequence, ard even
whether he was a consp rator or not is a
matter in which the country can to-day
> feel no possible interest. The war is over
and settled, and that is, or ought to be, the
end of it.
The only live issue between General
Sherman and Mr. Davis is that the former
has been personally branded by the latter as
a base slanderer for declaring that he had
seen a letter written by Mr. Davis to a
Confederate General, now in the United
States Senate, convicting the ex-President
of a conspiracy to seize upon ab.olute pow-
er in the South. All the statements |
' General Sherman can make to the War
Department will not purge him of this
i stigma fastened on him by Mr. Davis until I
. he produces the letter, or proof to show that
■ he spoke truth. He has not done, nor can
’ he do, either.
PUBLIC HEALTH.
Throughout the entire country there is
great interest manifested on the subject of
public health, and every effort is being ex
erted by Medical and Scientific Associations
to develop information that will better se
cure its improvement and preservation. The
most important of the health organizations
in the country is the American Public
Health Association, which holds its thir
teenth annual session in Washington City,
in December next. This will be a very in
teresting session, and the deliberations will,
it is believed, be productive of very benefi
cial results to humanity at large. We refer
to this meeting thus early from the fact
that a prominent feature will be the pre.
sentation of essays on vital subjects, for
which generous prizes are offered. It is
believed that these prizes will have a ten
dency to awaken an increased interest in
the great work which this Association has
for years been successfully prosecuting, and
will add much to the al-eady more than
national reputation of its beneficent under
takings.
We assume that the medical fraternity of
Savannah who have a reputation for their !
progressive ideas and for deep concern in all
sanitary matters, will take some interest in
this approaching session, and the Times
hopes that some of our physicians who have
given great thought to all matters pertain
ing to public health will present essays on
the occasion.
These prizes, known as “the Lomb
Prize Essays,” are offered by Mr. Henry
Lomb, of Rochester, N. Y., and amount to
$2,800, which will be awarded as first and
second prizes for papers on the following sub
jects :
I. Healthy Homes and Foods for the Working
Classes. First prize *560: second prize *2OO.
Essays to be of a practical character, devoid
as far as possible of scientific terms. They
must be within the scope and understanding
of all classes, and designed especially for a
popular work.
11. The Sanitary Conditions and Necessities of
School-Houses and School-Life. First prize,
*SOO ; second prize, *2OO.
The object and intention of these essays is
. to furnish instruction to those having the
care of common schools; construction of
buildings, hygienic conditions, management,
! etc., as well as valuable knowledge to teach
i ers aud parents upon matters allied to school
interests.
’ 111. Distinction and indivdual Prophylaxis
against Infectious Diseases. First prize, *5o0;
1 second prize, *2OO.
> This subject will embrace the kinds, value.
, and relative merits of disinfectants, as well
’ as the methods of use. Also the means that
may be employed by the individual to avoid
. contagious and infectious diseases.
IV. The Preventable Causes of diseases, injury,
, and death in American manufactories and
workshops, and the best Means and Appli
ances for Preventing and Avoiding them.
First prize, *500; second’ prize, *2OV.
Under this head, the conditions and neces
sities of the American mechanic are to be es
, peclally considered and the thorough consid
' eration of a class will be regarded of more
value by the judges than a superficial review
of the whole field. Original investigations
will weigh much In awarding the prizes,
while compilations from existing literature
or foreign statistics will not find favor with
the judges.
The conditions are that all essiys written
for the above prizes must be in the hands of
the Secretary, Dr. Irving A. Watson, Con
coid, N. H., on or before October IS, 1885.
Each essay must bear a motto, and have
accompanying it a securely sealed envelope
containing the author’s name and address,
i with the same motto upon the outside of the
envelope. A caligraphic copy of each essay
will be made by the Secretary and placed in
the hands of the judges, so that they will be
. totally ignorant as to the author.
After the prize essays have been de
, termined upon, the envelopes bearing the
, mottoes corresponding to the prize essays
will be opened, and the awards made to the
, persons whose names are found within them.
. Tne remaining envelopes, unless the cor
. responding essays are reclaimed by authors
or their representatives within thirty days
. after publication of the awards, will be de
stroyed unopened by the Secretary.
. The judges have been selected by the
! American Public Health Association, the
Conference of State Boards of Health, and
the National Board of Health, and are em
powered to reject all papers if in their opin
ion none are worthy of a prize. The essays
i awarded the prizes are to become the prop
erty of the American Public Health Asscci
ation. None of the judges will be allowed
to compete for a prize on the subject upon
which they are to pass judgment.
BOA RD OF THE CAPITOL COMMIS
> SIONERS.
i The death of the lamented Major Ben
jamin A. Crane, Esq, of Atlanta, left a
vacancy in the Board of Capitol Commis-
: sioners, which had to be filled by the Gov
ernor. The vacancy had to be filled by the
appointment of an Atlanta man, and as
our special telegram from Atlanta last night
states, this duty has been performed. The
Governor has appointed Hon. Evan P.
> Howel), President of the .Constitution Pub
lishing Company, to the position. Captain
Howell is well and popularly known
throughout the State, and it is scarcely
. necessary for us to say that he is thoroughly
fitted to discharge the duties of the position,
and that his appointment will give general
satisfaction. Captain Howell is a gentle
man of rare ability, whose tireless energy
and vigorous enterprise have done much
• towards building up Atlanta, and he wi'l be
i a decided acquisition to the board.
