Hon. RHfas Il. Lester Not a Candi-

ualts
In our issue of the 18th inst. we sug-
gested the Hon. Rufus E. Lester, ot this
city. as being in every way qualined 10
succeed the late distinguished Executive
Of Georgia. The aspects that the canvass
had assumed indicated that there was to
he a contest for the prize, and While
we did not suppose that Mr.. Lester would
care 10 engage actively in the struggle, we
had boped that he would have permitted
our suggestion of his name to be accepted
by his many friends throughout the State
as an indication of his willingness to
stand for the nomination. In bring
ing him forward we believed that
we were yOicing the wishes Of the people
of this section, and Of his many admirers
elsewhere throughout the commonwealth.
We are, however, in receipt Of the follow
ing letter from Mr.. Lester, which clearly
defines that gentleman's position:
SAVANNAH. March 10, 1885.
Editor M0rRiIg NeloS: am not can
didate for the nomination for Governor,
and do not wish my name 10 De before the
nominating convention in April.
Your editorial of 18th inst, announcing
nv name in connection with this nominal
tiOn. renders il necessary for me 10 make
This pubIic statement in order that IL may
not appear that l give even seeming con-
sent to its use.
Nv engagements and circumstances
are suen as TO prevent at this time the in
diligence Of a wish to be Governor even if
the situation was altogether favorable to
success. am not the less grateful, how
ever, to you and the others Of my friends
for the good opinions expressed OF me-
Very truly yours, ETC.,
RUFUS +. LESTER.
In common with those who had in
dulged the hope that Mr.. Lester would
have allowed the use of his name, we can
not but regret that he declines TO permit
il. We trust that the choice of the con-
vention may fall upon one who will as
truly represent the people as would our
distinguished fellow citizen, and who will
ill the high office with the capacity and
dignity which he would bring to the dis
rtsa 0f ifs duties

81. Louis Republican,

The demand made upon the trunk line
RAILWAYS for reduction of freights is an
admission ofall that has been claimed for
the Southern factories, and however 10th
the New England manufacturers may be
to admit the fact, it marks the beginning
of the end. They are making hopeless
effort TO block the current of the inevlta-
BILE and it will fail. The Southern roads
will be quick to meet any reductlon Oh
rates by the Northern lines, and the New
England factories win find in the end that
if thew cannot manufacture as cheaply as
the Southern factories, the right way and
the only way to retain their vanishing
trade is to remove to such location as
will enable them TO curtail expenses.

there will be at least ], 500, 600 Presidential
ballots cast by illiterate voters. But the
evil Of plutocratie politics is not confined
to nor is it perceptibly aggravated by il
literacy. The general system under
which initeracy continues is favorable to
evil influences in politics among many
voters who are not illiterate.

A Private Institution

While complaints are multiplying at
the Treasury Department from this and
that manufacturing interest in relation to
the way the new tariff operates, none have
so far been put in by the great body of
consumers, on whom the protective taxes
fall. nor is the Treasury itseH very appre-
hensive concerning a deficit in cOnse-
0uence of the change in the law. A tariff
thus appears TO be practically private
affair, and as such is bound sooner or
later TO Get thoroughly smoked out.
