Liberal Legislation Needed.

What is wanted in this and every other
Southern State is capital. a great deal
of the capital in the South doesn't belong
here. 1t is sent here for investment, and
will remain here only so long as it pays a
| fair return to its owners. Immigrants
are also wanted. If capital and immi-
grants come into the South freely the next
lew wears she will be rich soon. She has
an abundance Of everything necessary to
create wealth except workers and
money. The two will come together.
Texas and Florida have been getting both
for several years, and their growth in
wealth and population is wonderful. Are
there not some reasons why they have had
greater degree Of prosperity than other
Southern States which have not been gen.
orally commented on? Are not their laws
relating to capital and immigration more
liberal: Have they not both made extra
ordinary efforts to secure immigration,
and have they not made liberal cOnces-
siOns to capital:
There are two policies which may be
pursued in legislation. Under one policy
it is assumed that the citizens Of a State
art 4dlulg Gu4t ~ AdhE CAlC VI NACliA-
selves, or to manage their business affairs
with shrewdness and Intelligence. For
eign capital is taxed whenever it can be
done, and public enterprises that are sus-
tanned 10y foreign capital are made to
bear unnecessary burdens in order that
the burden Of the citizen may be light
ened. It is a shOrt-sighted policy, be-
cause it stunts the growth Of a State and
eventually increases the burdens Of the
citizen.
The other policy is to encourage the in
vestment Of capital, the promotion ofpub-
lie enterprises and the development Of in
dustries. This is done is by liberal
laws. Increased prosperity OF the State
not only lightens the burden Of the citi-
zen, but increases his ability to bear the
burdens that he has. 1t is easy to see
which is the wiser policy.

A committee of stockholders Of the still
proposed new city Of Sheffield, Ala, is
10 be held in New York this week. None
Of the enterprises that were to have been
set on foot at Sheffield have yet amounted
to much, except the ''gas works." The
promise is made that the boom will be re-
Yived very soon, and that the city will
rapidly materialize. No doubt Sheffield
offers great advantages for a manufac-
turing town, but the projectors of the
enterprise seem to have relied too much
on talk and speculation, and to have in
vested too little cool cash in actually build
ing up the place. Five or ten millions of
dollars put into brick, mortar, machinery
and railroads might put Sheffield ON a
firm foundation, as it would almost any
town.

The action Of Gen. Grant in requesting
the withdrawal Of the bill TO grant him a
pension OF 5000 a year is not regarded
as an indication that he does not wish to
be b1leted on the Treasury. He is said
to be very anxious for the passage Of the
bill now pending to place him On the re-
tired list Of the army, which will pay him
a good deal more money, besides giving
him a rather digniied position before the
country. The object Of the introduction
of both the bills, however, was to tap the
treasury for the Generals benefit. Per
haps, however, the General will astOnish
the natives by requesting the withdrawal
OF the retired list bill.

To Whom the Credit Belongs.

The opening of the Worlds Fair at New
Orleans is close as hand. The manage
ment has announced that everything will
be in readiness for that occasion. Twenty
five hundred carloads of exhibits have al
ready arrived, and others are arriving at
the rate of 100 carloads day. A large
force is busy placing the articles in posi-
ton as fast as they are received.
1t is now certain that Georgia Will be
well represented there. a part Of her eX-
hibit has already gone forward, and other
parts are being shipped as fast as pre-
pared. 1t will all be in place by opening
day.
There are three men who are entitled to
the credit of getting up the Georgia eX-
hibit. They are United States Commits
siOner d. G. Bacon, District Commits
sioner j. Nj. Copper, of Darien, and
County Commissioner Judge W. d. Har-
den. of this city. They have worked
earnestly and faithfully to give Georgia
place at the Exposition among the States
Of the Union and the nations of the world
that her people would be proud OF, and they
have the satisfaction of knowing that
they have succeeded. Their efforts were
generously seconded in this city and in a
few other localities, but they did not re-
ceive the aid throughout the State that
they ought to have received. However,
they have done well. and when Georgians
visit the fair they will have no occasion
to make excuses for their State.

A Washington special says that Gen. Logan
is to have the full benefit of Blaine's follow
ing in 1888. If the country should stand still
for the next four years, Gen. Logan, with the
help of Blaine, may be able to secure the
nomination. but if it moves in the direction
in which it has inst turned Its face, the nOmi
nation Of no man with Logan's crazy tariff
notions and hatred of the South will be posi-

There seems to De no probability that
Congress viii pass the bill granting the
''trail' for the national cattle drive from
Texas nOrthward. as it would withdraw
nearly 1900. 900 acres OF land from settle
ment. There is little doubt that the cat
tie men will before long be forced to build
one or more lines Of railroad for the pur-
pose Of hauling their cattle north. 1t is
probable that the shipping Of the cattle
by rail will not cost a great deal more
than driving does now. There are strong
indications that the cowboy will have to
evasuate the West.

The Washington correspondent OF the
Philadelphia Times throws cold water on
the Galveston deep water scheme. He
says that Ofthe $7,75O.OO0 asked for by the
Texans, $4,000 600 are to be divided among
the Galveston ring, and the balance used
to build the jetty. While this may not be
literally true, it strikes the country that
the amount asked for all in a lump, as it
were, is a rather colossal one when the
geographical position and commercial i'm
portance of the town are considered. Per-
haps it would be just as we'll for Calves
ton to prepare to float its boats over the
bar with the assistance of lighters and
pOntOOns for a few years longer.

A Washington correspondent of the
Hartford Times says in regard to Blaine's
libel suit against the Indianapolis Sen
tiHel: ''Blaine was asked as to the status
of his suit, but appeared indispOsed to talk
much on that subject. 1t is believed by
his friends that he is inclined to let it
quietly drop out of sight. He has made
no answers TO the second series Of inter-
rogatOries filed by the defendant, nor has
he taken any notice of the summons which
were served on him when he was at Fort
Wayne, Indiana, in October last, TO APP
pear in person. The defendants are re-
solved 10 insist on the personal attention
Of Mr.. Blaine if the suit is continued.
One of Mr.. Blaine's intimate friends re-
ports that he was convinced within
twenty-fOur hours after instituting the
suit that he had made mistake, but let
it drag on through the Presidential cam
paIgn, because it would have been a
greater mistake to discontinue it." Of
course Blaine will press the suit if he has
any hope OF making out case. He could
not do otherwise after all that has been
said and done. If he drops the suit it
will he probably because he can not prove
the allegations made by him in regard to
his alleged Kentucky marriage.

1t is stated that Secretary Chandler,
and not Blaine, has obtained control Of
the Washington Republican, and will as
sumo the editorship after March 4. There
is a probability that Chandler will be a
brisk bidder for the Republican nOmina-
ton in 1855, and that he will want to
have a good deal to do with shaping the
policy Of the party during the next four
years. The Democrats would like very
much to see him upon the tripod. He
would be a splendid target for their jour-
nalistic arrows, although he may not
think so.
