Small pox has broken out in .New York, Ohio, Kansas and Colorado. In congressional elections in the South the negro vote is generally suppressed—by ‘he negroes themselves, because they have no candidate in the field against the.demo , crats. Uncle Joe Brown votes with the repub¬ licans to keep a heavy -tax oil bagging, salt and the like*, while diamonds and jew dry, as well as fine perfumery, are to be imported almost tree of duty. Uncle Joe’s power wanetb. Many columns of leading matter de raonstrating the cause of hard times are; daily written. But while the high tariff and other things may tend to make times stringent, the most potent factors in the production of this .result are laziness and extravagance. In Atlanta the trial of >S. H. Moore, charged with the murder of James Hunt, a member of the legislature from Catoosa county, has been postponed until the i £ mrth Wednesday in March If the wood cut of Moore published iu tbe Atlanta Evening Journal be a correct likeness of the aroused, it is not likely that he will be alive when tbe fourth Wednesday in March dawns. If it were possible for the .South to man¬ ufacture all her cotton into cloth, then the cotton and cotton goods market of the whole world would bo controlled by those .vho should control it. As it is, Engl avid produces no cotton, yet she makes the price of the staple. The people of United States should not boast of their commerce while the management of this ■mportant industry is not manipulated bv them. Mob law is becoming entirely too .com¬ mon now-a-davs. When a mat: with committing some grave crime is “ ** Ck *' y 10 HB ot iivdgiuent sentence he the stands hands in of of much the Judge of court, a greater mob Lyueh. and as in danger through many In some of cases the in ■: tances the public approves of a mob’s ac¬ tion, but a conscientious, thinking man will condemn such lawlessness. A crowd of excited, half drunken men is much . more likely to do injustice thafi a level¬ headed judge and twelve impartial jurors. Mobs have so much power that they arc q>t to abuse it. There is a too lrequont tendency on tho part of officers of the law to wink at mob violence. Should there be a reward offered for tbe apprehension .and arrest of those connected with such law¬ lessness, public sympathy is so often with •,iue mob that it is almost an impossibility to secure tbe .conviction of the guilty par¬ ties. The press should condemn laivless i-nesa in every form, and good citizens i-ought to endeavor to bring those guilty of i^K-’b.YMlUlC&JlP trial before ju<j[gp and jury.. BETTER PROSPECT’S. The most hopeful sign of coming pros¬ perity in the South is the evidence we have that the farmers are doing their own thinking. Home commerce has been man¬ aged by those who controlled the farmers. Increased prosperity -among the farmers means general prosperity thiough the country. « The Farmers’ Alliance then sprang from a-common necessity, and instead of being an order which is formed for the purpose of.pulling down other business interests, it is calculated to do much good to all honest and legitimate . enterprises, whenever its aims and purposes shall be carried out. Allianceman have great obstacles-to over¬ come before they can Tie able to bring ag¬ ricultural interests to that independent basis necessary for their ultimate success. The worst trouble is I bat of'the farmers being in debt. But for this fact trusts and monopolies would stand but a poor -show at this time, and numbers of manu¬ facturing enterprises necessary to the pros¬ perity of this cectiou would be established in various quarters. Congress then, in¬ stead of speeding its energy towards the fostering and-encouraging of manufacturers by laws discriminating against tbe great business of agriculture, would be forced in the ijpurse of a short time to make laws as much to tayiiitcvcst of the laboring classes as to any other class. But wui'e the laws are unjust and corrupt, especially' towards Southern people, it-is highly probable that Southern fanners will improve their condition more in the next few years than the .farmers of any other section. Under the existing laws the Southern farmer, in order to improve bis condition, will be forced to do without or make at home many things he has been buying from the clast and West, and this he has resolved to do. The South is better prepared to produce and soil many articles which she is now buy ing than the people are from whom she gets these things; and when this matter shall become revolutionized a sea¬ son of unheard of prosperity will dawn iu this region.
