The “bloody shirt'' business is on
the wane. This is the way the New
York Tribune eritielses the bloodiest
Nero of them all: “Senator Morton
may have some strength as a Presi
dential candidate outside of Indiana,
but it Is not uppureut to the linked
eye. Ouroful observation makes him
the weakest candidate in tile Held.
Wi; think the cotton estimates of
the editor of the Atlanta Constitution
are entirely too high. It Is unfortu
nate for tills excellent journal tliut
the people of the State regard its
cotton estimates us nearly always op
posed to the interests of the planters,
and rarely fail to meet, the approval
ofeotton buyers.
Wav were Indian captives sent to
Florida for safe keeping ? We could
not even surmise the reason, until
wo read the announcement of the in
tention of locating the Seminole ne
groes, and the vagabonds that infest
the Indian reservation of Texas, in
Florida. Truly the determination to
add to the voters of Grant's third
term scheme is desperate indeed.
Tub once wealthy city of Columbia,
S. has been brought to such straits
by the malfeasance or its carpet-bug
officials that the Treasurer was re
cently compelled to give a olty certi
ficate of debt for forty cents, the po
llribaro but half paid, and they ar
rest persons on the slightest offenses
In order to make money for the city
by tines, and thus to obtain their sal
aries.
We believe the latest estimates will
make a reduction of u half a million
bales less than last year’s crop. We
would not be at all surprised if the
crop was even sßiullerthan that. But
the tlnancial stringency, causing sus
pensinns of mills in England and in
this country, will probably keep the
price of the staple low, until the
lapse of time proves that this year’s
crop Is not an average one.
Ws agree with the Atlanta Herald,
in t hinking t hat those persons who
condemn Gen. Colquitt’s course in
spooking throughout the State are
wrong. These carping critics see in
thiseoursenneflortonthoiiartoraen.
Colquitt to electioneer for the Gov
ernorship. The General would not
tlo his duty as President of the Direct
Trade Union; as President of the
State Agricultural Society, did ho not
make an effort to familiarize the peo
ple with the details and objects of
these organizations.
Says the Detroit Free Press: "If
eitiee would refrain from Incurring
obligations until both the necessity
for them was well defined and the
way of meeting them was clear; and
if nil expenditure was made with a
thorough appreciation of the ability
of (he city to meet it, the question of
municipal debts would be a simple
one. But there is too little counting
of the cost-, and the consequence is
that too many cities, almost before
they are awareof it, hav' found them
selves laboring under a vast moun
tain of debt, and the interest charge
figuring prominently In the munici
pal budget.”
Male Aid.
Is it not antagonistic to the true
spirit of republican institutions?
Would it not bo wiser ty prohibit
any legislation by which States could
issue bonds lu order to raise money
-for promoting internal improve
ments ? Ought any city to be allow
ed to Incur great indebtedness in or
der to further the aims of individuals
against the interests of the mass of
the tax payers? Hv this mistaken]
policy the Credit Mobilier and simi
lar corporations have corrupted the ;
very fountain head of Republican
Government, arid the cities of this
new country are more burdened with
debt than those in England. We
may be slow perhaps, but we can not
help thinking that tbis making haste
to bo great and luxurious will result
disastriously in the long run. Plans
for building railroads where they are
not needed, for supplying water
works to cities not able to pay for
them.urc rushed t hrough by munici
pal bodies, and the whole people of
the city arbitrarily forced to pay for
those expensive luxuries by taxation,
whether they approve or disapprove
of those projected schemes. It may
be urged that railroads will not be
built unless cities build them. In
that case they should not be built.
Either a .State should own all the
railroads within its borders, or It
should own nono at all. Even the
Western and Atlantic or Georgia
State Boad has never paid the State
more than two per cent. it annum
on the average; and no road in the
State is better located to dou paying
business.
The Brunswick Railroad might not
have been constructed fora half cen
tury by private subscriptions, but it
would have been whenever the needs
of trade demanded it.
It is urged that since so much has
been done by State aid for Northern
Georgia, the other parts of the State
should be likewise aided.
If that road be sold and the amount
received bo placed in the State Treas
ury, this will be the safest way to
repay the tux payers. Let (.ap
ply and demand regulate the
construction of all railroads, and
the State will he better off if it will
cease all appropriations to aid works
of internal improvements, it is im
possible to prevent fraud from assum
ing larger proportions when the State
Is to pay for exorbitant contract*.
The one admirable feature of the Cen
tral Road, and the other roads in the
State not. built by State aid, is, that
they were built by private citizens
at a fair cost, it is unjust to them
thut competing roods should bo built
by State aid. When the breach is
once made it is hard to close it up
again, but we think that it ought to
be done. We are opposed to monop
olies, but we would not have any
means adopted to overcome them ex
cept. that, honorable course dictated
by necessity and practical common
sense. The common sense of Ihe
people is nearly always right, and we
believe when tills subject comes fair
ly before them that they w ill prohib
it further “progress" on this plan.
A Young Ilu migrant.
A few evenings ago we visited Mr.
Rhodes Browno’s cotton factory. This
is tlie kind of manufacture tliut we
would like to see introduced gener
ally in our State. Only No. i!0 yarn
is made, and there is no difficulty in
selling every pound as fast, us made.
Wo hope to live to see the day when
a large proportion of our cotton crop
is shipped from Georgia in this shape
instead of raw cotton. We will have
made great, strides toward independ
ence then.
But our chief object in noticing
this factory is the fact that its Super
intendent is a young Swiss, not yet
twenty years of age. Wo little
thought when we knew William Roeh
at his home in Geneva eight, years
ago, when ho was a lad just catering
Ids “teens,” that lie would be the
Superintendent of u cotton factory in
our native city of Columbus, Ga., in
1876. But it is true. After reaching
here in 1870 he sought and obtained
employment in the Eagle & I’henix
Mills, beginning at the lowest round
of the ladder. After serving his ap
prenticeship he went to Poughkeepsie
and acquired a commercial education
at Eastman’s Business College. Re
turning to Columbus he sought Ids
old employer, who, having watched
his determined efforts to succeed, em
ployed him and finally promoted Mm
to his present posit ion. We congrat
ulate our young friend, and offer his
career as an example to our youth
which promises to yield them more
remunerative profits than any other
pursuit.
We have it upon the authority of
The Atlanta {(la.) Constitution that 65
Doctors of Medicine and 135 lawyers
are practicing in that city. They
represent, about, 1,000 persons who are
dependent upon them Tor support:
yet there are more doctors than
would be needed it a pestilence were
raging, and more lawyers than would
be ealied for if every able-bodied citi
zen of Atlanta were either a plaintiff
ora defendant. "Only two of the
i medicine men" we aie told, "and
barely a dozen of the disciples of
Itlnekstone, posses each, property to
the amount of i?to,(HH).“ Business
makes business; railways increase
travel; but the most charitable can
not be siek just to help along the doc
tors, or plunge into litigation just to
encourage the lawyers. We suppose
that what is true of Atlanta is equal
ly true of the whole country; the lih
] erat professions, as thev are called.
\ lire overcrowded ; and although there
j is always room at the top, mediocrity
must be the rule with its consequent
i want, of nnv marked success, and
with a crowd encouraged bv no suo-
I cess at all at the bettom. The young
Bachelors of Arts should understand
: that there are other resources than
| law, physic, or divinity; and that
11here is almost everywhere an over
i supply of school teachers. Commer
cial chances are always and everv
j where so eagerly improved us to leave
i little opportunity for new-comers;
| yet they offer more numerous grades
jof success than the professions. But
then there is the broad bosom of the
'earth waiting for plow and shovel
and hoe, and never asking whether
the tiller has graduated or not. Dig’s
the word! ,Y Tribune.

In tlio State Convention of Aloha
mu Mr. Laugdon offered the follow
ing resolution:
JCesntiTil, That in order to expedite
the business of this Con section the
President bo authorized to appoint
eleven standing committees, of thir
teen members each to consider cer
tain sections res|H*ctiV(dy of the
present Constitution, and t > report
upon the same with suedi recommen
dations for amendment and revision
as may lie deemed necessary and
proper, to-wit:
1. A Committee on the Bill of
Bights.
■2. A Committee on the Legislative
Department.
3. A Committee on the Executive
Department.
4. A Committee on the Judicial De
partment.
5. A Committee on the Education
Department.
6. A Committee on Finance and
Taxaion.
7. A Committee on Elections and
liusis of representations.
s. A Committee on Corporations.
‘J. A Committee on Exemptions.
10. A Committee on Amendments to
the Constitution and miscellane
ous provisions.
It. A Committee on the Order. Con
sistency utid Harmony of the
whole Constitution.
This was a good move. Also the
one proposing that “the General As
sembly shall have power to make
general laws, but not have power to
make local or special laws.” We
never could see why it was necessary
to get Legislative sanction before one
could build a ferry, or do other things
that do not concern the public gen
erally.
The New York Ann stiles the
prophet of evil the “bear" of the
moral world, ft adds thi . sensible
paragraph;
“The fact is, the less one thinks or
talks about hi* health the better. It
is not an interesting subject to other
people; it should not bo one to oc
cupy one's own thoughts, unless the
enfeebled body lias so brought down
the mind that It yields under the
pressure to the fancies and gloom of
weakness that eaunot ho fought
against.”
