SAVANNAH. GA., JUNE 15,1894.
FOR GOVERNOR:
W, Y. ATKINSON
OF COWETA COUNTY.
The influence of federal office-holders ,
should not be felt in the manipulation of politi- '
cal primary meetings and nominatine; conven- 1
tions.
Grover Ci.i-.vi land.
A DANUKKOUH MENACE.
Is there never to be any relief from theloul, (
disease-breeding germs in the open waters of
Bilbo canal ? Under the hot suns of a semi
tropical summer it is festering and seething
with bacteria, and the stench from its pol
luted flow is as nauseating as the effluvia that
oozes from its banks are deadly.
From the Savannah river to the Thunder
bolt shell road it is peculiarly loathsome to
sight and smell.
Why is it that this malaria-breeding sluice
is kept open to the detriment of the health ol
the people of the east side ?
Why is it that its contaminating waters aie
not shut off from sight and smell, and the
sewage with which it reeks is not conveyed
to the point ot discharge like a sewer should ?
Cleaning out and throwing its precipitated
sewage on the bank with a sprinkling of lime
only whitewashes the hideousness under
neath and does not arrest the progress of bac
terian growth.
It is a menace to the public health, for the
sewage is both animal and vegetable, and
gives off its noxious vapors because it is ex
posed to a semi-tropical sun, ami courses
along its oneu channel bv th,. vrr* dnnr, <>(
the people living inside the corporation line,
while every wind from the north, the south
and the east carries its germs ol disease into
thicky-populated portions of the citv.
Why is it that this unsanitary channel of
poison is permitted to flow upon the surface
when its unsanitary condition has over and
over been brought to the attention of the
proper authorities? It is tempting Providence
to trust summer after summer to our good
fortune in escaping an epidemic with this foil'
sewer flowing its uncovered sewage, fester
ing and rottening where it lodges tn its How,
through a habited poition of the city. Is it
because it is in a quarter where the poor and
humble reside, as a rule, that there has been
this indifference to the demand made year
after year for the nuisance to be abated? If
not, why, we repeat, is it permitted?
Think of it! An open sewer more than a
mile in length hourly fed from the store houses
of filth, mingling in rotten and foul-smelling
flow under a semi-tropical sun, lodging on
the edge here and being precipitated to the
bottom to be cast up on the bank to i ipen
the seeds of disease and death, within a stone's
throw of a thickly populated portion of the
city. It is criminal to permit it, and an uni
versal protest should go up against it.
We are strict in quarantining against the
epidemic from without, and yet nursing a fetid
monster from within, whose feverish breath
may at any time spread disease and death
throughout the city. Bilbo canal is a gaunt
skeleton whose bony finger may at any time
point the wav to ravage in our fair city. Close ]
it up, and forever, before it is too late.
NOTHING TO CONTEST FOB.
The “contest” was the prearranged trick '
of an organization that knew its own weak
ness. It would not measure its strength with
the masses that crowded the First district
oerwhelmingly outnumbering it. It refused
to act with the people of the Second district
when it found it was in a hopeless minority.
It believed it had a majority in the Third until
at a certain point in the count it discovered
that it was in the minority, and started a dis
graceful row to break up the meeting. It
found the opposition in the Fourth largely ex
ceeded it, and acted independently, as it had
done in the First.
Beaten in every city district by refusing to
act, Tammany, and its auxiliary that it humil
iated, and the better element it disgraced,has no
ground tor contest. Any little group of 10 to
100 could, with the same propriety, have had
a rump meeting and demanded that the com
mittee it elected should be seated. What
Tammany got last Tuesday night it got in the
neck from the people who repudiated it.
Richmond county (Augusta) democrats,
of the Evans stripe met to nominate their
county ticket and a resolution indorsing the
Cleveland administration was voted down in
short order. If Mr. Atkinson is nominated
the Hines party expect to get the Richmond j
“sorehead” vote. As Mr. Atkinson will get i
the nomination without it, so he can be elected
without it.
Highest o? all in Leavening Power.—Latest U. S. Gov’t Report i
ABSOWTEiy PURE
THE I*ool. SHOULD BE BROKEN.
If Charleston is keenly alive to its commer
cial interests it will not be content with pass
ing resolutions, but it will take steps to over
throw the pool that is cutting off her cotton
receipts. The discrimination in favor of Vir
ginia ports is affecting our neighbor to a much
greater extent than Savannah is being affected,
and the necessity of effective action is urgent
Savannah’s commercial bodies are ready to
join in any step necessary to correct the
abuse.
There is no reason why the ports of South
Carolina and Georgia should be robbed of a
trade they are entitled to to put money into the
pockets »l Wall street sharks. The pool is a
violation of the laws governing interstate com
merce .♦ecause of the injustice of the differ
entials as now fixed hy the association, and
they ought to be restoicd or the pool broken.
The Richmond and Danville wreckers of
southern railway properties ought to look to
their own territory for business and not at
tempt to wrench it from others by a pool
that we believe would not be permitted to
stand if it had to run the gauntlet of the
law.
Atkinson is winning in a walk.
It is now time for Gen. Evans to retire.
Bibb will soon be followed by Chatham
for Atkinson.
The democracy was engaged yesterday in
Macon a Bibb lor the “infant” that the old
war-horse Evans was to scoop.
Tammany is against the working people of
Savannah. Its members cheer the Morning
Unreliable as their organ, and it is the
bitterest foe of the workingmen.
Tammany has insulted the Railway Protect
ive Association, and any member of that body
who votes for a Tammanyite will be recreant
to his own interests. The Tammany confreres
yesterday refused to recognize the Railway
Association as part of the Democratic party of
Chatham county.
Tin Morning Unreliable has kept well in
the traces. Thus far it has not corrected any
of the many falsehoods in its local columns.
Its false statement about Judge Falligant’s al
leged expression of the relative strength of
Tammany in Troup square has not yet been
corrected as far as we have seen. Was the
copv for that false charge edited by I. I. Mc
uonougn, ms son-in-law and others?
President purse of the board of trade
says that the Charleston visitors here this
week returned home impressed with the
necessity of taking steps to have quarantine
tees abolished at their port. Our neighbor
must hurry up if she wants to beat Savan
nah in the good work, for it is confidently
expected that the city council of Savannah
will take action at its next meeting to make
the port of Savannah free to the ships of all
nations.
Count Mitkiewikz has taken his third
wife, the daughter of a wealthy Maryland
farmer. The notoiiety of this adventurer
is such that at first glance it would hardly
seem possible for a self-respecting American
girl to give her hand to him in marriage,
but the title of count is too much of a
temptation, it seems, and American girls
will continue to buy the title of countess in
spite of the sad experience of those who
have tried it to their sorrow.
h- the paity in Chatham county is divided,
the division is such that it will not injure it.
The true democracy—those who believe the
majority should rule are in the majority, and
they do not propose that the bolters shall
win at coming elections by utilizing that class
whose votes are in the market and who have
been registered by the enemies of fair elec
tions with a view of purchasing their votes.
It is proposed to give as much attention to
these gentry as was given to electing the peo
ple's executive committee ticket last Tuesday
night.
