Hurd and Converse.

The denomination Of Congressman
Frank Hurd, of Ohio, is a matter that is
worth more than a passing notice. 1t in
dictates that the DRIFT of public sentiment
is towards tariff for revenue exclusive
". and 1t teaches that bold and aggres-
siye advocacy Of principle is sure to
meet the approval of the people.
Frank Hurd Is in some respects the
strongest opponent Of the protective tariff
system in Congress. Last session his
speech in favor Of the Morrison bill at
tracted more attention than any other
speech during the tariff debate. His
friends said to him that the wool interests
Of Ohio would prevent his return to Con-
gress. He replied that he wasn't in Con-
gress TO represent any one particular in
terest, but TO legislate for the whole coun-
try.
Mr.. Converse, the colleague Of Mr..
Hurd, a Democrat of unquestiOned abil-
ity, devoted nearly his whole time last
session 10 an effort to secure an increase
Of the duty on wool. He failed, of course;
but he was not responsible for the fail
ure. Mr.. Converse also opposed the Nor
rison bill because it provided for a reduc-
ton in the tariff on wool. He made the
motion to strike out the enacting clause
of the bill, and was one of Mr.. RandalPs
chief Iieutenants in the contest which re-
suited in Mr.. MOrrisOn's defeat.
But how was Mr.. Converse treated by
his constituents when he asked for re-
nomination? Did they accede to his re-
quest! They did not. They repudiated
him. Mr.. Hurd stood by his party and
the principles Of his party. He advocated
d removal Of at least a portion of the bur-
dens Of the people. Mr.. Converse forgot
the interests of the great mass Of his con-
stituents in his anxiety to promote, as he
thought, the interests Of few. The peo-
pie of Mr.. Hurd's district were so
satisfied with him that they insisted upon
further service from him. The peO-
pie OF Mr.. COnverse's district turned
away from him and selected
a new man to represent his district. 1t
would not be difficult to point to others of
those who assisted the Republicans to de-
feat the Morrison bill who failed to have
their course approved by a denomination.
Does not the success of Hurd and the de-
feat Of Converse teach that the principle
of tariff for revenue exclusively is making
Roadway even in wool growing Ohio?

EARNING i'm Georgia.

In a communication IN the Southern
Cultirdtor for September, State Commits
sioner Of Agriculture, Mr.. Henderson.
denies that he entertains the opinion, as
charged, that s'there is no money in farm
ing in Georgia" Mr.. Henderson thinks
that the fact that the number of farms in
Georgia increased from 10000 in 1870 TO
10000 in 1880, Is pretty good evidence that
farming in this State does pay.-Mr. Hen
dersen may have been little careless IN
expressing his opinions on this important
matter, and may have, therefore, created
I an erroneous impressions He says
/ have advised some young men who
consulted me as to the policy Of their en-
gaging in farming, and giving up their
present business, 10 look we'll TO the hard
realities Of their intended calling and not
be delnded by the thought that success in
this new sphere was to be easily won. In
moments of free interchange Of thought, l
have no doubt often expressed my feel
ings in regard TO the weighty questions Of
labor and production in a manner too
careless for one whose opinions on these
subjects were as likely to be closely
scanned or severely criticised as mine.
But when grayely questioned have never
been reticent or backward. My cOnvic-
tiOns in regard TO these mOmentOus sub
jects are too strong, and TO some extent
too serious to be slightly treated.
Doubtless the correspondent who
charged the Commissioner with enter
tanning the opinion that farming does not
pay in Georgia cOnversed with him when
he expressed his feelings in manner too
careless for one occupying so responsible
a position, and the correspondent, there
fore, got wrong impression. 1t is, per-
haps, not too much to say that the ques-
lions with which the Commissioner has
to deal are too important to permit any
variation in his answers when questioned
lightly and gravely concerning them.
There is always a chance that he will be
misunderstood.
We do not see that there was any occa-
sion, however, for the Commissioner to
make formal reply to the criticisms on
| his alleged assertion that farming does
not pay in this State. The people know
him very well, and are apparently satisfied
/ with his work. He has certainly done his
| best TO make his Office valuable to the far
| mers. In this communication in the Cul-
tiUdtOr he gives the farmers some excel.
lent advice, which, II adopted, would dc
the farmers and the State a world of good
| The Commissioner does believe that farm
ing pays in Georgia, and he is right; but
he also believes that 1t could be made tc
pay a great deal better than it does.

The Coming Rate War.

Ii is not regarded as probable that any
agreement win be reached that will pre-
vent the withdrawal Of the East Tennes-
see, Virginia and Georgia road from the
pool on Sept. I. = On the contrary it is the
very general impression that war Of
retes will be inaugurated. In fact, it is
stated that the East Tennessee, Virginia
and Georgia has already gwen orders 10
cut all rates, and is now engaged in max
lag contracts feF4 large ameHats effreights
not only in Georgia but in various por-
tions OF the South, West
and Northwest 49, Its also said
that freight agents have orders TO take all
freight in the territory tributary TO the
road whether il can be obtained at rate
that will afford a profit or not.
This certainly has an aggressive sort OF
look. It can mean nothing else than that
the East Tennessee, Virginia and Georgia
intends 70 test the endurance Of its rivals
in carving freights at rates that will not
leave margin for profit and may not
meet expenses.
1t must be admitted that this is bold
move for a road that is heavily burdened
with mortgages. 1t is difficult to deter
mine whether such a bold policy is to be
admired or not, because it is possible that
it may be a suicidal policy.
tbs certain. however, that ifthis policy
is not promptly met by a policy equally
bold and aggressive on the part Of the
Central and other local roads a good part
Of the trade Of Georgia will be drawn
away from Georgia's towns. Trade that
Is drawn away from its accustomed chan
nels does not quickly return.
II the situation is as it is understood to
be there is only one thing for the local
roads TO do. They must make the fight so
hot that the East Tennessee, Virginia and
Georgia will not find it comfortable to
continue it. Any hesitation in accept
ing the gage Of battle may be disastrous
to them as well as TO the towns which de-
pend on them.
OF course there must be something
behind this warIike attitude Of the East
Tennessee. Virginia and Georgia which
is carefully kept from the public. What
is its purpose? Is it to force concessions
from the local roads, or is there a big
railway scheme Of some kind being
engineeredE

Where the Fire is Out.
Magic no More a Mystery-Seen from
Across the World.

''Haroun of Aleppo," said Sir Philip Derval,
"had mastered every secret in nature which
the nobler magic seeks to fathom. He dis
covered that the true art of healing is to as
sist Nature to throw off the disease-tO sum-
mon, as it were, the whole system to eject the
enemy that has fastened on a part. His pro-
eesses all included the refrigeration Of the
principle of life"
In this the Eastern sage merely anticipated
the practice of the best physicians of to-day.
What life itself is, nobody knew then-nobody
knows now. But we have learned something
of the reasons why the mysterious tide rises
and falls. Provided the great organs of the
body are not irreparably destroyed, medical
science can always relieve, and often save.
Yet no reputable physician now adheres to
the barbarous and stupid processes of deple-
ton, such as bleeding, by which it was at
tempted to cure disease by reducing the pa
TENTS ability to resist 1t. Now -a-days we do
not tear down the fort to help the garrison
we strengthen it.
In this intelligent and bene6cent work. it is
conceded that PARKER'S TONIC leads all
other medicines. As an invIgOrant 1t acts
Immediately and powerfully upon the circu-
latiOn and the organs Of digestion, thus giving
Nature the assistance she calls for. 1t follows
that all ailments of the stomach, kidneys and
liver are at once relieved or cured. No other
preparation embOdies the same qualities or
produces similar results. 1t is delicious to use,
and the best known anti-intOXicant. Price

The dailies are just now reaching out and

and literary matter, and give less space
to general news, the latter being dreary
repetition to most readers nowadays.

thing for all parties if the Chronicle and
Union and Recorder would join hands
(''pOOl their issues") and give us trl-

THE WORK on THE NEW BUILDINGS
at the asylum is proceeding slowly but
surely, and it is expected that one Of the
buildings Will be ready for occupancy by
the middle of October. The completion
of one of these buildings will make room
for about $50 more patients, and from all
accounts it will not be long before this
room will be claimed. The increase in
insane persons is so great that it will not
be many years before the Legislature Will
have to discuss ways and means for build
ing another asylum in the northern part
OF the State. 1t is not probable that it
will be deemed proper to enlarge this one
beyond the additions now projected, which
will give a capacity Of about 1,500. l be-
lieve it is the opinion of the medical gen.
tlemen connected with this institution
that it would be unwise to enlarge it fur
Their. 1t is only those persons who come
here to see it that can appreciate the mag
nitude of this charity. All the rest in the
State sink into insignifcance when COM
pared to it.
THE FARMERS AS A GENERAL THING
have short faces. Nearly all claim that
they are making fine crops of corn, with
prospects good for a full yield of cotton.
In some respects it has been an eXtraOrdi-
nary year. a cold, wet winter, a wet
March and June beyond precedent, and
very little hot weather. July was COM
paratively pleasant, and there have been
only few warm days in August, and very
little rain thus far. The past two days
have been as warm as any this year, but
| previously the nights were cold enough
to justify blankets in the early hours of
the morning. Corn will probably sell as
low as sixty cents here this fall, though
the farmer will make very little money on
it at that price. The farmer should be
encouraged in every way to SOW largely
of oats this fall. 1t is a practice the
Georgia farmer should get deep into and
stick to, but many of them need to be
| urged yearly to the policy of more grain
| and more stock. S. A. C.
