THE Georgia State Commissioner of
Agriculture, in supplement report just
issued and based on returns as late as
December 10, says that except in south
west Georgia the year has been better
than 1876 among the farmers. Less
corn and cotton but more wheat than
usual have been produced. Speculative
ventures in cotton-planting are becoming
rare, and the Commissioner accounts it a
sign of coming prosperity that more
farmers every year are raising their own
farm supplies and not neglecting them
for the exclusive cultivation of cotton
are buying and raising improved stock,
growing fruit, and developing the mi
nor resources of the farm-sorghum, SUI
gar-cane, millet, chufas, etc.

The Legislature has been in session
Just one week. Its first business was to
place Itself in a condition for wcrk
which it did promptly. The committees
have been appointed with 4 view TO tie
peculiar fitness of the members for tie
duties assigned them. One of the first
acts of the Senate was to decide whether
Constitutional Convention should be
called, and without wasting time in discus
ing proposition to that effect was re-
iected. But this does not follow that 0
changes are to be made in the organic
law. Others are needed and we have 70
doubt the Legislature will take due note
an amendment to hold State and county
elections at the same time elections for
members of Congress are required to he
held by the Federal law; and thus to dis
pense with the trouble and expense of
annual elections. During Radical rule
in this State, the Democrats arrayed
themselves solidly against such a propo-
sition. The reasons at that time were
good and sufficient. BY Federal law the
United States Marshal is authorized to
attend at the polls with his posse, and
the United States army is placed at his
bidding under pretense of providing
against intimidation, but really to act as
electioneering Instrumentation the Repub-
lican party. To be rid of this infamous
machinery in their State and local cleo
tions, the Democrats persistently voted
against any amendment bringing the
Congressional and State and county cleo
tions together But the circa mstances
have entirely changed. The people
have broken the rod of their oppressors
forever. They have wrested their Gov
eminent from the hands of the spoilers,
in spite Of the military power of the
Government. General Grant confessed
his impotence to hold the Southern
States longer in subsection to the militia
ry power against the will of the people,
and had initiated the policy which Mr..
Hayes has carried out by removing the
troops. Military supervision no longer
exists. The States are RENTED to the
control of their own affairs. In 1875
Congressional elections were held, and
even then, though the iron hand of Grant
welded the sword of the nation, the peg
pie triumphantly asserted their right to Sc
lect their own Representatives,. Without
mourning the least hazard to the right Of
free elections, the Legislature may, at
this session, initiate the proposition for
the proposed amendment. The people
have weathered the storm, and they are
anxious for all the repose they can safely
enjoy, without imperilling their welfare,
from the agitation consequent upon fire.
quent elections. In other times and I'M
der different circumstances, we combat
ed the amendment which we are now ia
voring; but the times and the circum-
stances have entirely changed, and it is
the part cf true craftsmanship to change
with them. At all events, we insist upon
the Legislature giving the people an OPP
portunity to express their will at the
polls. The cost in the mode prescribed
by the Constitution will be small, and it
is their sovereign right to be heard.

Silver was demonetized to enhance the
value Of gold in the interest of bond
holders who expended a large cOrrup-
ton fund to procure the legislation, un-
der cover of law, with fraudulent
title, which was intended to conceal and
not to express the intentions of the act
Members of Congress have confessed
that they voted for it without knowing
its meaning In debate between Mr..
Pendleton and Gen. Garfield, (the Re
publican leader in Congress- at the meet
ing in Ohio, the former made the charge
and the latter admitted it, as follows:
This charge called for an answer from
Gen. Garfield equal to Eyes" or mo-" with
out equiVocatiOn. 1t came as follows:
ssMy friend put the categorical question
to me whether, at the time the law passed,
/ was aware of the effect the law would
have. Perhaps | ought to be ashamed to
say so, but it is the truth TO say that L. E I
that time being Chairman OF the Committee
on AUTHORIZATIONS, and having my hands
overfuli during all that time with work
never read the bill. | took it upon the faiti,
of a prominent Democrat and prominent
Republican, and don't know that voted
y
nays, and nobody opposed that bill that
know of. 1t was put through as a dozen of
bills are, as my friend and l know, in Con-
gress, on the faith of the report of the Chair
man OF the Committee; therefore. | tell you !;
becaIse it is the truth, that | have no
knowledge about it."
And here is General Grants admission
that he signed the bill without knowing
that it demonetized silver. With child
like simplicity he was wondering what
had become of the precious metal long
after he had signed the bill banishing it
from circulation He wrote as follows,
October 3, 1873, several months after
signing the Act:
[ wonder that silver is not already COM
ing in the market to supply the deficiency
in the circulating medium. Ex-
perienee has proved that iL takes about $40,-
600 900 of fractional currency to make the
small change necessary for the transaction
of the business of the country. Silver will
gradually take the place of this currency,
and, further, will become the standard of
values, and will be boarded in a small way

5000, 100000 to $300,000000, in time, of
this species of our circulating medium.

AS strsight Republican journal as
the st. Louis Globe Democrat admits
that the Administrators pretensions of
reform are delusion and a snare. 1t
says:
The last act in the farce of reform was
the payment OF the mercenaries. Harlan is
raised to the Supreme Bench; Hawley is
offered an appointment, McVeagh a foreign
mission; EVarts i. taken into the Cabinet;
Matthews is lifted into the Senate over the
shoulders of Garfield, who "makes a back"
for him. in the hopes of thereby getting the
Speakership for himself.
Sherman returns from Louisiana to 90 into
the Cabinet; NOyes packs his carpet bag to
air his French graces before the Marshal
President; Comfy, who came to time at
critical moment, and disavOwed the Presi-
dents sym pathy with the Southern Demo
Gratis, is promoted from the State Journal
at Columbus to the Sandwich Islands mis-
sion and even Lee, who backed aim up in
his disavowal with all the energy OF St. Pc
ter denying the Lord, had his conscience
salved with COnsulship to Frankfort, in
spite of proof of his unfitness.

THE Secretary of the Interior has sub
mitted a report to Congress on the in
debtedness of the Pacific Railroads to the
Government. The total Indebtedness of
these roads to the Government on Octo-
Der 81, was 1913, III, 1913. OF this sum
the enormous proportion of $2S, 498, 686,
represents interest long since due, and OF
which these lscrupulous corporations
are now trying to defraud the people.
The question naturally arises if the Union
Pacific (the Huntington company are
not able to pay their just and long out
standing dues to the Government, how
are they to build new road on the
Southern route, without aid ? Had they
not better pay up what they owe than to
undertake another work The natural
inference is that their latter enterprise is
a scheme devised merely to defeat any
other company or what is even worse
to perpetuate their own gigantic monop-
oily.

THE following resolutions have been
introduced in the Pennsylvania Senate
and referred to the Committee on Fed
eral Relations. 1t is thought they will
pass:
Resolved, That our Senators in Congress
be instructed, and our members be request
ed, to use their power and influence to
secure the passage of a bill to remonetize
silver.
Resolved, That our Senators be instructed,
and our mem bers requested, to take such ac-
ton as will tend to result in the earliest
possible constitutional liquidation of the
Government bonds in which the national
banks are predicated, by the substitution
or payment thereof in legal-tender notes
usually denominated ''greenbacks."
Resolved, That our Senators and Repre-
sentatives be instructed to use their best
efforts to make the entire issue and circula-
ton of the so-called greenba a legal-ten-
der for all debts, dues and demands, except
in such cases as the original contract may
provide otherwise.

The Constitution provides that the
doors of each House, when in session, or
in committee of the whole, except IN cases
Which may require secrecy, shall be kept
OPEN" Open sessions are the rule, ard
secret sessions the exception, and of the
necessity of which either House is TO be
the Judge in its own case. 1t is founded
on the well-established principle of pop
ular government, of the right of the people
to be advised of the acts of their agents.
The cases which are presumed to require
secresy are when war or insurrectionists
imperiling the public peace, are to be
dealt with, and when its safety requires
that open day enemies or midnight con-
sprators, should not be informed of the
means employed to suppress them. 1t
was never contemplated that secret ses-
sions would be resorted to except in
great emergencies. The adventures
who controlled the State government and
had incorporated the above provision
in the Constitution as a matter of form,
never professed any other feeling than of
Indifference to, and contempt for, public
opinion. Consequently, they instituted
the secret session system, under pretense
of Executive sessions" for the first time
under our State government. There is
no more reason why an Executive APP
pointment should be considered, and
acted upon, in secret session, than a
United States Senator, Superintendent
Of the Penitentiary, or any other public
officers should be chosen with closed
doors. And yet who would venture
to propose that such officers should be
elected in secret? It's author would be
hooted out of countenance for proposing
what would be utterly at variance with a
custom founded upon the right of the
the people to know what each and every
one of their agents are doing The
practice of closing doors to consider any
subjects except those of the nature refer
red to, smacks of an inquisition, and is
a relic of past time and Of Radicalism.
Publicity of the acts of public agents
should be the universal law. Why
should nominations not be discussed
freely in open day? Will any man give
a substantial reason in favor of conceal
ment The present session will be an
suspicious time for describing custom
of the late Radical rulers, and honoring
it in the breach instead of the obser-
vance.

rhe pacific HgaHErOad QmestIOn.
Congressman Money has been inter
viewed on the Pacific Railroad question
BY the Chicago Tribune. His views as
expressed in that journal are about the
same as in his letter to TIE CLARION

facts. The Southern Pacific or Hunting
ton company asks the same land grant
that was conferred upon the Texas
Pacific or Scott company. But it does
not ask any government money. Neither
does the Texas Pacific. 1t only ask the
government to indorse its bonds for
interest and it offers to secure their pay
ment by pledge of the donated public
lands and transportation service for the
n
government. Both companies make fair
offers. The chief consideration is, which
is acting in good faith in proposing to
build the road-which one means business
which one will better secure the coun-
try against grinding and oppres I've

Huntington company has thus far been
unable, or has refused, to pay the gov
eminent the interest which it justly owes
is strong presumptive evidence that it is
acting in bad faith and does not intend to
do what it proposes, and instead of
building the road, it is devising how not
to do it.

The New York Tribune IN an appeal
addressed to the Northern Republicans
for help, says:
The Republican party is now In stFug-
gle for its very life. The union OF soma
South and Tammsnny Hall threatens TO
grasp the Government, and plunge us into
repudiat on or bankruptcy.
Bankruptcy is figure of speech,
and what is meant by "repudiation is
that the Democratic party will insist
upon the right of the people or the gov
eminent, to pay the public debt, in sill
yer as well as gold, according to the
contract. So far as the ''solid South ="
is concerned, it is aptly remarked that
the South is /" solid indeed against
Radical misrule. No Returning Boards
can, by fraud again divert a single
vote of the 1873 which the solid South is
entitled to. Only forty seven more are
needed to elect. New York and In
diana Gas certainly Democratic since
Morton's death as Georgia. cast fifty
electoral votes-more than enough. But
there are in addition Connecticut, New
Jersey, Pennsylvania, Ohio and Califor-
MIA, casting 70 electoral votes.
Put these in the Democratic column and
the electoral vote would stand; Dem
ocratic, 260; Republican, l09-Demo-
cratic majority, 151. But revolutions
never go backward, and the chances
are that the Democratic majority will be
above these figures.
