filed up in line to the ticket office,
smiled across the full width OF his
ample mouth, and asked the ticket
agent if be knew him.

'and l don't want to. What do you

ooh, l know you. That dodge won't
work. [ have had two members Of the
cabinet try to blk me out of tickets"
The chief justic glared. He could
not fine the young mar for contempt
of court. He biushed SO that the
agent had his belief strengthened.
The chief justice had only five minutes
left. Across the street there vas a
saloon. The chief justice made a rush
across the road. He rushsd in and
accosted the proprietor:
"Do you know me?"
Bet yer head, yer honor" said the
short-haired mar behind the bar. "Ye

The Chief Justice grabbed the money
and ran across the street. Mr.. Waite
made the train, but he has not had
such a shock to his dignity since he
went upon the bench.

state them. | had a number Of copies of
the muster roll of the German Volunteers

place in my saloon, and it was seen and
read by thousands OF persons. 1t was
there for twenty years and upwards. The
other was placed in the back of the frame
for safe keeping. l loaned one to Messrs.
Derst and Ratz for the purpose Of having
il coined, When it WAS returned L put

Renkin asked me TO let him have the one

RAPID WATER TRANSIT

The Inland Route to FIorida-Pros-
poets of a Lively Competition Between
Steamers and Railroads.
The extension of lines of railways in
Florida, especially those in the country
adjacent to the st. Johns river, is de-
veloping a fierce rivalry between the rail-
way and steamboat interests, which
promises by another season to break out
into an open warfare. In Jacksonville
the question of running the steamers
which now make that city the northern
terminus of their route to Savannah is be-
ING discussed. By this plan the boats will
become competitors for the freight and
passengers coming to this city by steam
ships from.New York, Philadelphia, Balti-
more and Boston. as well as for the bust
ness of the Central Railroad. There is,
however. a great obstacle in the way of
such a route, namely, the difficulty
attending the navigation of the
creeks through Romney Marsh. This
has been an almost insurmountable draw
back to the inland route between Savan-
nah and Florida. Steamers are often de-
laved for hours waiting for the tide to rise
sufficiently to permit them TO go through.
An effort has been made to overcome this
difficulty by cutting a canal partly
through Romney Marsh. The Govern
ment has spent $4,000 on the work this
wear, and il will take four or five times as
much more to complete it, and those who
have looked into the matter are doubtful
if the route will be any better after this
Improvement" is made.
To overcome this Objectionable feature
to the inland passage and secure a short,
quick route to Florida, an old scheme dis
cussed years years ago, when the steam
ers which then piled between this city and
Florida had no railroad competition and
did all the business. has been revived.
This plan is to make Montgomery the end
of the steamboat route, using the Subur-
ban Railway to connect with Savannah.
Ii is claimed by those who are CONVEX
SAINT with the subject that over thirty
miles can be saved in distance and three
TO twelve hours in time by this route, and.
if the steamers run TO Fernandina, pas
sengers can breakfast in Savannah and
take supper in jacksonville. Tour
lists would thus have an opportunity
of enjoying pleasant trip by
daylight among the beautiful sea islands
of the Georgia coast. There is scarcely a
doubt that the inland route would be IA
vorite one with travellers, provided the trip
could be made without unnecessary de-
Law. Whether anything will come out of
the scheme is yet to be seen. but that II
Is feasible scarcely admits of doubt.

Editor Morning Netcs. The actions OF
our ''reform" Board Of Aldermen at their
meeting Wednesday night needs pablo
condemnation. Now, as the retaA mer-
chants in Savannah are satisfied that the
present ReforHa Board Of Aldermen have
ignored not alone their wishes, but their
rights in the matter of the unjust and I'M
equal taxation, is it not about time to
take such steps for a mass meeting as the
question demands Then only can
we expect to wake up the Council
to a sense of their duty. No doubt our
wise City Fathers will then see their In
consistency in the matter Of taxes and
revise them, making the wealthy pay
their proportionate share towards llqui-
dating the debt Of the city, and not put
the burden on the shoulders OF the poor
and middle classes. If we had lew
more such business men in Council as the
chairman of the Finance Committee, this
unjust tax digest would never nave De-
come law.
The Council certainly have the right to
levy taxes, but they must do so in busl-
ness way, and not in the interest OF lew
capitalists who have an idea that they,
and they alone of all the merchants in Sa-
yannah. are entitled to protection. Now,
YOU VIII agree WIFI llc tual II 10 thOSe
who are struggling hard for livelihood
who should be protected; and not those
who, through the immense fortunes they
possess, are living on the 'fat OF the
iand,v If there must be specific tax, why
not make it a per centum on the amount Of
business done? Why should l pay so
per year, and others, who do larger bust
ness than myself, say of from ten to nj
teen times more, pay the same! IL Is
simply unjust, unbusiness-like and rldicu
| lous. We have wholesalers who claim tC
do a business of from $500, 900 to $75G, 900 g
year, and why should they pay but foul
| times the amount of specific taxes that
| Mrs. Widow pays, who does a business Of
perhaps $1,000 a year? Well may the
words be recalled, used at the last Alder
manic election, that they were nominated
in the interest of monied men, and not
in the interest of the masses. To over.
throw their arbitrary actions mass meet
ing is necessary, and then only can we
| expect anything like
EQUAL TAXATION.
