An exchange claims that the gov ernment might easily have raised an annual revenue of $30,000,000 by a tax on beer, but forgets to add that it is better politics to burden the poor by roundabout and evasive methods than to tax, directly and openly, the rich brewers. Platt is credited with the assertion that he and the president understand each other fully. The New York boss is not the only man in the country who understands McKinley, but the number of those who have penetrated the abysmal depths of Platt’s mind is considerably less. Congress got together again yester day; Tom Reed is again in the chair, and the eastern manufacturers are in the saddle, flow far and how reck lessly they will over-ride the rights of the masses of the people remains to be seen ; but enough is now known of the new tariff bill to justify the belief that the north will, as usual, get it in the pocket, while the south gets it in the neck. N. W. Ayer & Son’s American Newspaper Annual for the current year is just out, and, as in years past, proves to be a work of reference that no publisher or newspaper man can afford to be without. Between its stout brown covers will be found an immense mass of well digested statis tical information, and a total absence of the verbiage that is sometimes made to do duty for sounder material in similar publications. The spool cotton manufacturers met in New York last week and formed a combination for mutual protection. This means that the manufacturers who use long staple cotton will op pose the proposed tariff on Egyptian cotton, and (bat the farmers of the south will, in all probability, again have an opportunity of observing how much more potent is the influence ex erted in national legislation by those who acquire wealth than by those who produce it. PECULIAR PROSPERITY. The Savannah News—which is al ways ready to fall into a highly op timistic mood when prevailing eco nomic conditions are criticized—is now trying to persuade itself that the farmers of the country “are in vastly improved circumstances, as compared with their circumstances in years past.” Our contemporary is laboring under a painful delusion. The question is, not are the farmers’ circumstances improved, but have they improved in the same ratio as the circumstances of those who live by handling, in one way or another, the products of our farmsV This question is one that will never be asked by those who have observed the painful and mortifying difference in the standard of living in the coun try and that prevailing in our cities and townß. If the average American farmer is not a poor man, be must be one who has a very poor opinion of himself and those dependent on him; for certainly no sane man in prosper ous circumstances could simulate the appearance of poverty with such aston ishing fidelity to nature. Taxed and re-taxed, buying in pro tected markets and selling in open competition with the cheapest labor in the world, the mere fact that the Americau farmer has survived at all is proof positive that he has lived hard; and that he is at least doing some hard thinking is shown by his protest against the nnjust conditions which the News, in its dignified isola tion finds so salutary. Our contemporary seeks to support its position by a reference to Kansas. Kansas is as far from Georgia as the illustrations employed by the News are from logic. We are told that the farmers of Kansas are getting out of debt. In other words, they are be coming so reduced that they can no longer borrow money to carry on their business. Credit, however, is as much an element of capital as cash; and in the fact that neither the farm ers of the west nor the south have in the world of finance the standing of those who gamble in their products, may be found the most conclusive proof of their subordinate position in the national economy. The astonishing movement of popu lation from the country to the city— the unprecedented growth of the towns, as compared with the rural districts that produce all the wealth they enjoy—tell the story. And to claim prosperity for a class whose rauks are yearly thinned by the de sertion of its brightest and best mem bers—whose vitality is constantly sapped by indirect taxation and pau perized competition—is to look the truth in the face and pass it coldly by unrecognized, THEY MAY NOT GO. Military Men Object to the Rate Made to Albany. The Plant System yesterday an nounced that the rate for military men to the Albany Chautauqua on military day, March 23', would be $3.40 for the round trip. The company expected a $2 rate. Considerable dissatisfaction was ex pressed by the members yesterday at the rate offered, and, unless it is re duced, it is doubtful if Brunswickwill be represented. At a $2 rate, the three local compa nies would, they say, send 75 men to Albany. Otherwise,they may not send any. Decisions will be made at this week’s meetings of the commands. The Rifle men are very anxious to enter two men in the prize drill, mentioned in another place in this issue, but they object to the rate as fixed.
