THEIR OWN STORY.


Valdosta, Georgia, July 90, 1882.
1 sold one of your Patent Dust Proof
Cases about ten months ago and the 9th
er day it came bsck to me with the re
quest TO make it wind easier On exarni
nation | found that the stem was rusty,
and | inquired into the cause Of it The
gentleman stated to me that he was star,
ing some saw logs that had lodged in the
bend of the river, when his chain caught
in a bush and threw his watch into about
twelve feet Of warer and he was about
tive nours finding it. When he found it
it was running and Ire thought it all
right In about three months he found
that the stem was hard 20 turn and sent
it TO me:
can say that the watch is all that the
company claims for it and recommend it
to all railroad and mill men.

without joint or scam, opening in front
only, thus avoiding the usual Cap. and
securing greater strength and durability
These Watches are all open face. The
bezel, into which an extra strong crystal
IL fitted withan especially prepared water
proof cement, is attached to the ease by
screwing it thereon, and thus forms an
air tight junction with the body of the
ease, which is proof against dust and
moisture.
To railroad men, travellers, miners,
lumbermen and others who are almost

make frequent reference to the watch,
these qualities are of the utmost impor

The resolutions directing the Governor
to have the suit instituted to forfeit the
lease of the Western and Atlantic Rail-
way dismissed, are made a special order
for to-day. They will probably be dis
posed Of without much delay or trouble.
We have not been able to discover any
good reasons for beginning this suit, and
we certainly see none for prosecuting 1T
further. No one, as far as we know, as
serts that the road is mismanaged, or
that the State has suffered on account of
the lease. on the contrary. the facts are
that the road is in superb condition. and
that tue Iessees have complied with the
terms of their contract in every important
particular. The monthly installment of
twenty-five thousand dollars is paid
promptly, and repairs and improvements
are made whenever and wherever needed.
The Dretense that the bond to secure the
payment of the rent is faulty, and that,
therefore. the lease ought to be annulled
should not receive, under the circum-
stances. a moments serious cOnsidera-
ton. The lease can he forfeited at once
in case of default in the
Davment of an installment.
The state would only lose twenty-five
thousand dollars, very insignificant sum
in comparison with the interests at stake.
Does anybody believe, however, that the
I lessees will give up the road to avoid pay
ing twenty-five thousand dollars: The
idea is prepOsterOus. The road undOubt-
/ edly paws five, and, perhaps, ten times the
amount of the rent. There need be no
/ fear that the lessees will voluntarily aban-
don so valuable property. Having per-
formed their part of the contract faith
/ fully, they are entitled to be let alone.
\ They have been investigated and re-
/ investigated. at the instigatiOn OF
/ dissatisfied parties, with no other
resuRthan to be Endorsed. To have this
/ lease dhnulled and the road mixed up in
1 the politics Of the State again would be
/ almost a calamity. The history of the
road before il was leased Is well known.
/ 1t was the means of drawing millions of
/ dollars out Of the Treasury. Since the
I lease was made it has paid millions into
/ the Treasury. We opposed the plan OF
leasing the road originally for reasons
which, at the time, were satisfactory.
/ The plan has worked so we'll, however,
and has been so advantageous, both to the
road and the State, that we wish the lease
TO remain in force. 1t has only about
seven years and halftO run. At the end
Of that time the road ought to be sold and
pass into the hands of private parties.

The South and the Republican
Party.

Buck. Bryant & Co. no doubt labored
sedulouslv with the President to secure
the removal of Marshal Longstreet, We
are not informed as to the nature OF all
the arguments brought to bear upon MI
Arthur. but the chief point made, 1t APP
pears. was General LOngstreets blunt
statement-made some time ago TO New
York World reporter-that there was
no Republican party in georgia
General Longstreet's remarks may
have been rather sweeping
hut few will dispute that to all ntents
and purposes he told pretty nearly the
truth. 1t would appear, though, tnat
Longstreet is not in danger Of losing MS
official head while his old friend Grant
has the ear of the administration.
Our plain spoken contemporary, the
New York Times, makes the self
imposed mission of Buck, Bryant Il
Co. the text for a hOmily upon the
mistakes of the 'grand old
party in its dealings with the South
In effect it would seem to confess
that General LOngstreet was correct
when he said that there was no Repubh-
can party in the South. 1t complains
| that such men as Buck and Bryant are
| Of no earthly service to the ''grand old
| partv.'' and signs for more Longstreets.
It sees but one way to build up Republ-
/ canism in this section, and that
is by offering offices to reputable citizens
| In this way it thinks that Republicanism
might be made respectable, and as sec
| tiOnal differences have been practically
composed. the recipients of public pat
ronage might be able to draw around
them the independent voters of this sec
ton. who. it thinks, under favorable con
ditiOns, would be quite numerous.
1t might occur to our able contemporary
to ponder seriously the question whether
Radicalism can regain what it has lost
not only here. but throughout the coun
try. Many of its former leaders confess
that its end is nigh, and the most san
guine are in doubt as to its future
The general belief is that nothn:
can prolong its control Of public
affairs save the plumbers of it
opponents, and, as so eminent Republi
can as George W. Curtis remarks, lit i
very bad generalship to rely upon tn
blunders Of the enemy" However wei
the Times plan might have worked, ha'
it been adopted sooner, it is too late t
experiment with it now. There is n
hope for 4}adicaIism in this section.

AWord to the Yorrying.


The Boston Herald need give itself no
uneasiness. The Democratic party is
pledged to tariff reform, and will see to
it that reform is its shibbOleth in the COM
ing campaign. The Democratic party is
not unmindful of the fact that certain
gentlemen who are more or less promi-
nent in the councils of the party Indicate
a nolicv fagrantly at war with the ma
ioritv. Nor is the tact to be obscured
that such superficial craftsmanship is
embarrassing. But it may be accepted
as foregone conclusion that Democrats
who directly or indirectly favor monopoly
and mOnOpOlists will be showed under
when the Democratic party by its chosen
representatives meets to announce au-
thoritatively it's policy. There will never
be a monopoly plank in a Democratic
platform. On the contrary, just and
wholesome declarations in favor of tariff
for the support OF the government will be
placed upon record, and frisky politicians,
whose mission it seems to be to roar ike
patent thunder in favor Of protection,
will he required to suDside.

Mr. Enr,s Pistol Bill.

Mr.. Foy. the member from Efingham,
wants pistols taxed for educational pur-
poses. We haven't seen Mr.. FOy's bill, and
therefore, do not know its full scope and
meaning. We take it for granted. how
ever, that his purpose is not to annul the
law against carrying concealed weapons,
but only to tax pistols which
are carried openly, or are kept
at home for the protection against bur-
glars and tramps. If this is his intention
the number of pistols which his bill would
reach is so small that it is hardly worth
while to waste the time of the Legislature
with it. Besides, it would have a bad eff
feet, because it would encourage the prac-
tice of carrying concealed pistols. We are
opposed to any legislation that will. in the
remOtest degree, appear to sanction
this dangerous practice. If a man
pays tax on a piece of property he
feels that the State has no right
Is restrict his use of it, and,
controlled by this feeling, he would prob
ably violate the law against carrying con-
cealed weapons when, if there were no
such tax, he would obey the law. We
ubuht II AAO law st5dAAob Noi ms NoA-
cealed weapons can be made strict enough
toprevent the evil, but we have an abiding
faith that time, and the good sense of the
people, will finally crush it out. Public
sentiment is gradually becoming stronger
against it. 1t is not an I'M
usual thing now to hear
the practice openly condemned. The bet
ter our Young men are educated, the less
prevalent will this pistol carrying prac-
tice become. Deeds of violence will be
almost wholly confined to the criminal
classes. such deeds are as frequent, and
perhaps, more frequent in the North than
in the South, but they are more closely
confined to the worst classes. If the ten
dency of Mr.. FOy's bill is to check. in the
least, the growing sentiment against the
concealed weapon evil, we are opposed

Performances Not Promises

The influence of names is no longer felt;
the catch-wOrd OF party can neither rally
nor do they alarm the voter as they once
did. The honest Republican who means
reform does not hesitate to act with the
honest Democrat who votes tor it. The
independent voter takes the responsibility
and casts his ballot where he thinks it
will do the most good. We have seen this
in the last elections in the different States 4;
and this movement will continue, and the
whole country will again rejoice in am
honest administration of government
under now men and a new order OF THINGS.

Randall and the Tariff

Mr.. Randall is a man of the highest
principle and an earnest Democrat, put
he does not represent in his tariff views
what we think the majority of the party
believe in. His election to the Speaker
shin would mean an avoidance of the
tariff question, than which nothing more
dangerous to the best interests of the
party could happen. The tariff question
is too important to be ignored, and If 1t is
to be recognized at all it should be boldly
recognized.
