will saw in regard to immigration that
.n in favor of not only encouraging inn
migration from the older states, but also
those coming from foreign lands. We need
in the west a great deal of labor, and in the
southern part Of our state We have great
deal of room for hard-working people in
the spsrssly settled counties. An efficient
board of immigration can do vast amount
of good by drawing to our state both the
settlers from the older states, and foreign
Immigrants. These latter are, to my per-
sonal knowledge, from frequent visits TO
Europe, coming ever in large numbers, and
are mostly hard working, good people, Just
what We want and need. There is no DAN
ger Of getting too much population in Mis-.
souri, for the next twenty years. The re-
marks of Mr.. Logan, in regard to immi-
grafton, and boards to encourage the same,
must be taken As coming from a young
man without the least experience, and are
certainly unpleasant to the large foreign
home element which he pretends to repre-
sent in the legislature.

Presidential Chat.

A Washington correspondent tells the
New York Tribune readers how the Re
publicans at the capital talk about the
next Presidency. He says there is vast
deal OF discussion as to the future of the
party, the most noticeable feature of
which is that most of the statesmen are
very much at sea. But all agree that the
condition of the party in New York and
Pennsylvania demand the retirement of
most of the prominent Presidential candi-
dates and the nomination of some new
man who has had no connection with the
party controversies in those States, and
who would not be Objectionable to
either faction. Stalwarts say
this will suit President Arthur, and that
he never had any intention of being
candidate. Blaine also is setdOwn as out
of the field. General Sherman's chances
have been canyassed, and with his war
record and general independence of char
acter it is thought by some that his can
didacy might be whOoped into kind of
Harrison ''hurrah" campaign; but then,
others fear his recent joining the Roman
Catholic Church. under the influence of
his wife, may interfere, while others still
think there might be a real Harrison
freshet' turned loose by the nomination
of Senator Harrison, in spite of his Blaine
record and the fact that no one has ever
stepped from "a Senator's chair into the
White House.
Senators Allison and Window are also
spoken of in a desultOry manner, but Sec
rotary Lincoln takes the wind out Of all
their sails, in the conviction of his friends
that his name would have great strength
in the South, where the negroes, it is be-
lieved, would 90 through fire and blood to
vote for Abraham LincOln's son. A few
are wicked enough to say he is Todd and
not Lincoln, but his friends are quite
sure that does him great injustice.
To sum up, there is no disposition to be
in haste to bring about the inevitable dis
cussion of a candidate, and no boom has
been organized for anybody.
This seems to be wise, and the Republi-
cans might well spare themselves the
trouble and anxiety Of deciding upon
the next Presidency, as the Democrats
have already made arrangements to re-
lieve them of that patriotic duty. The
choice of any candidate by the Republi-
cans, with the view of carrying the South,
shows how ObliyiOus they still are to the
fact, that prestige and power have forever
passed from their hands in this section of
the Union.

What Was Evnected.

1t is no more than the Democrats expect
that the Republicans will misrepresent
all their motives and actions, and leave
no stone unturned to convince the coun-
try that it erred in turning the Republi-
cans out of office. Should they approve
the action of the Democratic members of
Congress, it is quite likely that the coun-
try would view the whole proceeding with
suspicion. The Chicago Tribune Opines
that ''when the Democracy shall have en-
cOuntered their accustomed defeat in 1894
they vii! regret their present attitude Of
opposition to civil service REFORM" So
they would if it could be shown that they
opposed civil service reform, but for re-
fusal to believe in Republican honesty, and
to cooperate with Republican hypocrisy,
wedOnOt think there would be very serious
regret. The Tribune says;
Perhaps Mr.. Voorhees,, of Indiana, and
Mr.. Brown, of Georgia, will not capsiZe
the Democratic milk-pan. Perhaps Mr..
George, of Mississippi, will succeed in
keeping it poised on the Democratic head.
Perhaps the Voorhees, and Brown eggs
will not get added to a degree that Will
make them smell very bad indeed long be-
fore the les of November, 1884,"
We are constrained to say we hope for
the best, but if the worst comes to the
worst, we have the consolation of knowing
that it will take the Democrats long
time to create a nest of eggs as badly
added as that so recently smashed by
the people.

The Louisville C0Hrier-JOUrndl thus
alludes to the coming celebration of the
Sesqui-Centemnial of the foundation of
Georgia 1.-The Gecrgians will, on Feb
ruary u. celebrate the 150th anniversary
of the first English settlement in the old
colony. Gen. James Oglethorpe was the
man most prominently connected with
that settlement, and with him it was a
labor of love. His idea was to open
place of refuge for poor debtors from Eng
land, and give them an opportunity to re-
cover their fortunes and standing, and
also to aid persons prosecuted for re-
ligious belief on the continent of
Europe. 1t was for these purposes that
Oglethorpe secured a charter from King
George H., in June, 1892, for the country
living between the Savannah and Altamaha
and westward to the Pacific. The British
Parliament also appropriated 10000 for
the colony. and it started prOsperously.
Oglethorpe is abundantly worthy to be
honored by the Georgians. His Indian
policy was as humane as that of Penn,
and his unselfish devotion to the we flare
of his unfortunate fellow men is deserving
of all praise"

The New Registration.

The officers of registration appointed by
the Board of Registration and Election
Managers under the provisions of the re-
cent act of Assembly give notice in this
mornings issue of the NEWS that the
work of registering qualified voters Of the
city of Savannah will begin tomorrow at
the places designated, preparatory to the
coming municipal election.
The act of Assembly passed at the re-
cent session, amendatOry Of the act of
1881, regulating the registering OF voters
in the city of Savannah, practically re-
peals the old act so far as its methods of
execution are concerned.
That our readers may be informed as to
its provisions, we reproduce the act of
1882. Its provisions, so far as relates to
the organization of the Board of Registra-
ton and Election Managers and the APP
pOintment of officers and offices of regis
tration, have already been complied with.
All persons who have made payment Of
their poll taxes since the adoption Of the
present constitution, and who have resided
in the corporate limits of the city of Sa-
vannah for not less than six months i'm
mediately preceding the election, are quail
flied to apply forregistratiOn, but all appli-
cations must be in person, and no one can
be registered until he has first personally
answered all questions necessary to the
proper filling of the blanks in the books of
registration.
Following the text of the registration
act we give the names of the officers of
registration for the several militia dis
tricts and their respective offices. We in
vite a careful perusal of the act of As
sembly on the part of every qualified
voter, and urge all to comply as speedily
as possible with the provisions of the law,
to the end that at the coming election
there may be Il full expression of public
sentiment as to the claims of the candi-
dates presented for the suffrages Of our
citizens.

Shutting the Eyes of Workingmen.

AeE ! ORR HOFtd NDeHtI'
President Arthur, Secretary Freling-
huysen and Assistant Secretary John
Davis must not forget that, next to the
star route moneys and the other moneys
contributed through Mr.. Levi 2. Morton,
d. she most effective bit of deviltry which
Mr.. Dorsey used by command of General
Garfield to accomplish the success of the
Garfield-Arthur electoral ticket was the
fib so industriously put about that the
wages of workingmen had been and
would be increased by a protective tariff,
and that the tariff would, by the victory
of Garfield, be made perpetual. Could
there be a better time than the present
for the three persons already named, who
now stand out before the popular mind as
holding the executive power of the nation,
to fOrcibly declare that Mr.. Dorsey ''tOld
a fib'' when by command of General Gar
field he caused such representations to be
made to workingmen? Mr.. Frelinghuy-
sen has now in his department the data
which should make it easy for him to as
sure the President and Assistant Secre-
tary John Davis that the average wages
of .wOrkingmen were much less in the
United States in 1879 than in 1869, and at
least IA per cent. less in 1882 than they
were in 1872, Clearly here protection has
ceased to protect labor!

A Tough Nut to Crack.
Chicago Tribune (Rep.).


In his recent address before the Farm
ers' Convention in Chicago, Gov. Cullom
attempted to defend the system of tariff
mOnOpOlies with the venerable ''pauper
labor arguments. Perhaps this was the
best he could do. Certainly no new argu-
ments in favor of protection have been
furnished by the bad plight to which it
has brought our iron and steel and other
great industries to-day, after twenty years
of ''free license" in tie application of its
theories. Lyman Beecher once confessed
that when he had nothing to say
he FUSED to hOller." In default of
new facts or arguments, the pro-
tectiOnist can always be relied on to
''hOller'' about the pauper labor of Eu-
rope. Paupers do not labor. Pauper Ia
Dor is as great a contradiction in terms as
the expression of 'Eself-supporting protec-
tionists" would be. The paupers of Eu-
rope go to the poor houses to live on taxes
levied on honest labor just as the Ameri-
can tariff monopolist goes to Washington
to get his sustenance out of taxes. 1t is
an insult TO the f"~~ = of this country to
argue that the hundreds of millions Of dol
lars worth of his produce that he sends
abroad every year is snapped off for pro-
ducts of ''pauper labor That is not the
kind of trade he makes.

A Word With Puck" and Other
DafamapG

For years past Northern organs, ire
spective Of their rank in journalism, have
taken an exquisite pleasure in decrylng
and slandering the South. Latterly, with
the decline of the value of the 'bloOdy
shirt as a political agent, the organs
grew less virulent, but within the past
few months there has been revival OF
their maleyOlence. which begets the sus-
picion that the tactics of Zach Chandler
are to be tried again in the hope Of making
a successful attempt to blow into flame
the all but spent embers of sectional hate.
The last recruit to the Islander contin-
gent is the illustrated sheet known as
Puck. In its issue of December Goth is an
atrociOus cartoon, which pictures
Southerner converted into a walking ar
senaI warning back a sturdy emigrant and
a solid-loOking capitalist. The picture Is
supplied with accessories calculated TO
strengthen it, the whole being admirably
suited for the awakening of the prejudices
Of the unrefecting Northern man or
foreigner. While we are disposed to con-
cede the efficacy Of caricatures of the
foibles Of humanity, or of the weaknesses
Of our great men as agents in the educa-
ton of the people, we submit to any fair
mind that such attempts as that
IN the issue of Puck before
alluded to ARE simply infamous.
The practice of traducing this section
may retard, but it cannot prevent, its
growth in prosperity and its necessary
consequent power. Some remarks of Gen
eral John B. Gordon on a recent occasion,
to the effect that the capitalists OF
Europe were greatly interested in
the advantages of this section
as a field for investment, doubtless in
spired the atrocity, which Puck presents
to its readers. They should remember,
however, that General GOrdOn's discovery
was by no means novel, for the fact he
stated had been made apparent by evil
dence right at our doors.
The Northern organs one and all may
Just as well reconcile themselves to the
fact that the South is destined to supre-
macy in this Republic. Her resources are
the greatest, her traditions the prOudest,
her daughters the purest, her sons the
pluckiest, and her political convictions
the sOundest to be found within
our borders. Her recuperation
afforded the grandest spectacle
in human history. Her growth is steady
and sure. She is not in need of
the expedients that other sections have
resOrted to to promote their growth. Her
resources are becoming more and more
apparent to the world from year to year,
and she can all but gaze into the splendid
future that awaits her.
There was a time when her people were
on the verge of despair, but the spirit of
the true American asserted itself, and
proved that there was life and will in the
old land yet. The world will yet pour its
myriads into her fertile fields and sunny
wales, but the people that will result from
this admixture will be Southern in char
acter, Southern in sentiment, and pos
sessed of the spirit that has raised us from
the depths of desolatiOn to the plane IF
prosperity wherein we stand to-day.
