'France and Germany (keep shaking fis's
in each other’s faces, but fee European
war seems as far off as ever.
The Macon Telegraph has temporarily
■extirpated the ozone out of the Atlanta
‘Constitution. Yes, knocked thewind out
of it. ■
Alt, that is lacking to make the -South
the commercial Eden of the world is
icnough cotton factories, sugar refinciies
mid coal and irou industries over Dixie to
manufacture and develop all our products.
The South would he belter offwith free
tiade than with protection as it now is,
but the North would be damaged by
trade. A reasonable protective tariff
would be justice to at 1 , aud justice to all is
God’s appointed way.
Sasi Jones speaks of Congress in a
general way as a set of drunkards. There
are many better men in Congress than Sam
Jones, and they are ton noble to denounce
The Prattle Mouthed Rev. as he she Hid

arc
public at large as an able and ingenious
.set; and perhaps the State press is not ad
pireciated too highly, but there are more
talented plagiarists among them than is
.supposed. This sin should be frowned,
upon by the more honest journals.
Ir is strange how some people will mix
the grave anil the gay. A grave digger,
nnd the sexton of Walnut street Prcsbyte
lian church, at Louisville, Ky., have just
been bounced for keeping a poker room in
the chnrch steeple, where they played
■while the congregation worshipped.
Crawford ought to be one of the lead¬
ing counties in the state, and would have;
been long ago if her people bad not been
so indifferent to their advantages. Tin
may be looked upon fev a few people in
other comities as nothing but newspaper j
gas, but we can back up oia statemeut
with solid facts.
Jay Hukbei.l has sufficiently recovered
from the shock of his recent defeat, to say
a woid or two about politic;;. His re¬
marks are not personal to himself, but
relate to Mr. Blaine, whom he dcsiguates
“the ripest statesman of the age.” This is
probably tine. Mr, Blaine wag plucked in.
1884— Savannah Morning News.
A pasty of Chicago men have bought
tho old Libby prison in Virginia, and will
gC-eroct it in the city ot big footed women
Of course they will charge ten cents ad¬
mission fee—there's the point! Next thing
wo know some yankee will come South af¬
ter the bisr hole in (he ground out of which
-so many yankees and negroes were blown
into fragments with powder.
Sam Jones speaks ot the members of
Congress as a set of drunkards who have
shoe strings for backbones, and said that
they knew what-ought to -be done it) deal¬
ing with the infamous tariff, but were
afraid to do their duty. To a certain ex
tent-he is.perfectly right. With the whole
country crying for tariff reform even the
most timid of our congressmen might take
a bold stand on the 'issue. The Govern¬
ment needs more men like Grover Cleve¬
land.
Certain one-horse editors who do not
seem to understand anything about the
great question of tariff reform have taken
sides with the “pr< tection” party, and arc
spouting about protection and free trade.
They attack‘tariff reform journ .ls thinking
that tariff reform means free trade. Ev¬
ery Southern man who is not interested in
the factory business and understands the
Issue is tor tariff reform, or’else ho is a re¬
publican. There are scarcely any free
trade papers in the-country.
Savannah- people and Florida people
would have the public believe that Presi¬
dent Cleveland will pay a short visit to the
great Georgia seaport and to the Sub
Tropical 'Exposition at Jacksonville next
Wednesday, and it seems likely ’that our
chief executive wifi take the trip with ’the
mistress of the While House. Thousands
will .go to-see them if they -pass through
Savannah. The President’s bold stand for
tariff reform lias endeared him more than
anything else to the hearts of the common
people as well as our best citizens.
Tirs bid -pending l<sfore Congress to
-compel the inmiufacntrers of c>inipotnd
lard to bland their g-cds so that the pub¬
lic will in t be deceived in buying, is a
good one, although some‘'Southern journals
take the stand that it is not, because the
law -would injure the sale of cotton oil.
The operation of this law would enhance
the value of eolton -oil, if large grocery
dealers tell the tenth; forffhey say that the
compound ai tirle is better than pure hog
lard, and the compound, so branded, would
raise the price, thereby making cotton oil
more profitable.
Prominent Prohibitionists are making
strenuous efforts to have Congress pass a
law breaking up the srle of liquor iu the
District ot Columbia. As a leading plea
b,r the passage oftfee hill they ho d that
the use of whiskey caused the war of the
Rebellion ; in that, as the use of whiskey
among the congressmen of that day
not only general but immoderate. They
claim tiiat if tlie French Assembly were to
drink half as much liquor in a day as was
consumed by the old Congress in the same
time, France would declare war against
Germany in twenty minutes. There is
something in this.
The Uu’ttvl States Consul at San Sal¬
vador urges tlie gieat importance of a
trans-isthmian railway across Central
America, aiwS gives for one reason the fact
that a speedy and safe transit would less¬
en the danger of travelers contracting
fever which is so easy to contract in tin t
latitude. A number of interior towns theie
get coal amd iroa at present from Austra¬
lia ; tbo coal costing $20 to $30 a ton. and
the iron costing in the same ratio whr*
compared to prices existing here. This
railway would give Alabama a chance to
sell all the coal and iron in a part i f Cen¬
tra! America, since it cau lie hauled to the
Pacific coast over the trans-isthmian Toad
and sold at one-third the cost of the Aus¬
tralian product It is plain that the Gov¬
ernment needs to construct this road*
The road from town to the railroad sta¬
tion must be improved or the plac/k will
suffer on account'd!' the bad road.
