The article on The state Road Lease, -
which appeared in the Atlanta COHSfiflt-
tiau last Friday. deals with the subject so
fairly and covers the points at issue so
satisfactorily. that we reproduce il in an
other column. The Senate passed the
resolution. authorizing the dismissal Of
the suit TO annul the lease, by
an overwhelming majority. if the House
i influenced by the same sense Of justice
and fairness. 1t viii act in this matter
the same way. The House Judiciary
Committee has made a report advising
the passage Of the resolution, provided the
Iessees viii give a new bond Of $780,
900 and pay the costs Of the suit.
We have already shown that the state
has all the security that is necessary. All
the state can reasonably demand is TO be
nrotected against loss. and it is doubtful
If there i a member Of either branch Of
the legislature who has the least appre-
pension that the state is in danger Of
losing anything. The report virtually
admits. BY favoring the dismissal Of the
suit on certain conditions, that there
l. no justice in the suit.
Tbat being the case, what justice is there
in compelling the lessees TO bear an ex-
ransa for which they are not responsible.
lrbe 1essaes have already been put TO con-
siderable expense in defending the suit.
Tbere il no reason why they should bear
the expense which the plaintiff has IN
CURED. unless it is agreed that the suit
oueht to have been instituted and the
pending resolution is a compromise. 1t
doesn't appear, however that there is any
such agreement.

Carl Schurz calls attention to the fact
that when the next Federal election takes
place the Republican party will have

that many citizens who have been in the

casiOnal transfer of power from one party
to another is one of the vital require

The story that the late attack on the
American Consulate in Monterey, Mex
leo. was by robbers, for the purpose of
robbing. is regarded in well informed cir
cles as unfOunded. The belief is that the
statement first made that the outrage
grew out Of the feeling Of hostility to
wards Americans on the part Of the mid
die and lower classes Of MeXicans is cor
rect. \ gentleman who has lived many
years in Mexico SAYS:
The Consulate Is not a particularly
likely place TO attract the attention Of
Mexican or any other kind OF robbers. as
the furniture consisted OF a couple Of
chairs and a desk, with no place what
ever to store away money er yaluables. l
see in the affair a direct attempt on the
part of certain Of the populace Of Monte
rev TO insult the United States. The feel
iny in Mexico among certain classes at
this time Is bitter towards Americans,
and daily becoming more SO. The Mexi-
cans are on the eve of another Presiden-
tial election, the anti-Diaz party being
quite active, claiming that Diaz has been
bought by the Americans and Ameri-
can railroad interests. Behind these
are certain manufacturers in Mexico
who dread American competition. Their
manufacturers are principally English
and German. They are engaged in cotton
and wooden industries. They look for free
trade with the United States as a final re-
suit Of American railroad enterprise in
Mexico, and dreading this they are busily
engaged in instilling into the minds Of
their Mexican employees that American
enterprise in Mexico means the eventual
conquest Of their country by the United
States. Under such circumstances ii is
not a difficult task 20 arouse Mexican
jealousy and hatred to the extent OF
almost anything in the way Of indignity
and outrage against Americans in Mex
icO."
More will be heard Of the hostility 10
Americans in Mexico next winter, when
the Mexican commercial treaty comes be-
fore the Senate for ratification.

Saratoga Special Philadelphia Press, 27fh.
The most important railroad transac-
ton that has ever taken place in the South
is reported to have been consummated to-
day. 1t is the purchase of the Richmond
and Danyille system, or rather control
ling interest in the same, from General i.
NJ. Logan and his associates, by whom it
has heretofore been held. The puyNhas-
ing syndicate consists of George l. Seney,
George F. Baker, Z. D. Fahnestock, Cal
vim 5. Briee, William P. Clyde and Gene
raj Z. T. Thomas.
This is the same syndicate that is be-
hind the East Tennessee, Virginia and
Georgia Railroad, and is the most power
full organization that has ever vet taken
hold Of Southern roads. Seney, Briee and
Thomas represent the old Seney cOmbina-
ton and the Metropolitan National Bank.
Scott is of the firm of George 5. Scott &
I Co. Baker and Fahnestock represent the
First National Bank of New York, while
Clyde is of the great shipping house of
William P. Clyde Co.

of the Richmond and Danville and 1,500

to twelve million dollars per annum.
The property acquired perfects a sys-
TEN that gives direct outlet for all Missis-
sippi river and Southwestern points to the

1t is also stated that the purchase has

The EInrilIa Trade.

The New Orleans Times Democrat just
before the completion Of the Pensacola
and Atlantic Railroad drew attention to
the opportunities this new highway would
afford the Crescent City 10 secure a large
share Of the trade Of Florida. 1t published
a list Of prominent merchants in various
parts Of that state and urged prompt ac-
ton in the premises upon the part Of the
business men Of New Orleans. Our con-
temporary in recent IS
sue took up the theme
again and made the visit Of Judge W. H
LeBrung. of Bronson, TO New Orleans,
upon a commercial mission the subject Of
an article reiterating the Importance Of
entering this new field Of trade.
Il urges that New Orleans has now as
quick access To Florida as Savannah. and
claims that the larger cities can offer a
better market for the sale Of Florida pro-
ducts and the purchase Of supplies from
the West. It proposes as the best means
Of making sellers and buyers better ac-
quainted the institution Of free excursions
from Florida points 70 New Orleans and
ricI rsrs9.
There can be no doubt that the mer-
chants Of New Orleans viii not be slow to
see the force of our contemporaries coun-
sci. and it behOoves the business men Of
Savannah to see 10 it that none OF the
Florida trade they have enjoyed is di-
verted 70 the Crescent City. Indeed,
there Is no reason why savannah should
not increase her Florida trade. New Or
leans viii acquire some trade in Florida.
Of course. but Florida Is a prosperous
state. and the volume Of her trade is rap
oily increasing.

Tba Fertilizer Bill.

RAYS fertilizer bill Will probably be
acted on BY the Senate in a few days.
There was strong opposition TO it in the
House. and the smallness Of the majority
bv which it passed that branch OF the
legislature showed that there were grave
doubts as to the wisdom Of the bill,
Have the farmers, who are the ones inter-
ested. studied this bill? If they have
not they ought TO do so at once. II they
have any doubts whether the passage OF
the bill would benefit them. now is the
time for them 70 act. We have already
said that. in our opinion. the bill viii
work 70 the disadvantage Of the
farmers. The Ostensible purpose OF
the bill is to release farmers from their
obligations TO pay for fertilizers which
prove 10 be worthless. If this bill be-
comes a law what viii be the result:
Cash will be demanded for fertilizers.
Dealers will not run the risk Of lawsuit.
All their profits. and, perhaps, part OF
their capital, would 90 10 pay law
vers' fees and court expenses. No
doubt half the sales would result
in lawsuits. Whether the dealers
lost or won their suits they would be los
ers. The difficulty Of determining
whether a fertilizer is worthless or not is
evident. The good effects may not be ap-
parent in the first crop. or may not be
sufficiently apparent 10 be satisfactory
The fertilizer may be all right but the
season may be unpropitiOus. A farmer
wanting more time in which to pay could
plead that the fertilizer was worth
less. OF, if he wished 10 be dishonest
he could put in the SAME
plea. There would be plenty
of opportunities for lawsuits and they
would be taken ADVANTAGE of. If the bill
passes the farmers Will have to pay cash
for their fertilizers. If they haven't the
money they viii have TO borrow it at
high rate Of interest, or they viii have &c
do without fertilizers. OF course the Ray
bill promises nothing to those who pay
cash. If the inspection service Of the
state does its duty the farmers know
what they buy, and that is all the protec-
ton they can reasonably ask.
