The Public Mind at Rest.

The public mind is now freed of all
doubt respecting Mr.. C~leveland's election.
The official \ Of the vote Of the
entire State Of New York has been COM
pleted, and Mr.. Cleveland's plu-
rality is shown to be los.
This is 4 very narrow margin on
which to win a great State that casts
more than a million of votes, but it is
sufficient, and just as effective as the
phenomenal majority which Mr.. Cleve-
land received when he ran for Governor.
The Republican attorneys have raised
no objections during the canvass, and 1t
is fair 10 presume that they do not intend
TO ralse Il before the State board OF
caGvassers. They have contented them
selves with watching the canvass and
seeing that it was fairly conducted
as far as their side was interested.
At last Blaine and his managers are sati-
SIZED. The whole country has been
about satisfied for a week or
more. In fact. the MORNING News an
n0unced the Democratic victory the morn
ing after the election, and az no time did
IL modify the announcement.
II must he admitted, however, that
there were occasions when there were
grounds for doubt. Now that all doubt is
removed 1T to be hoped that business
will revive, and that the whole country
will have as much occasion TO comment
on the busy times as it has had during the
past summer and present fall to deplore
the dull times.
There is no use standing idly around
wondering what sort Of a President Mr..
Cleveland is going to make, and what be
is going to say in his inaugural address.
All that is several months off yet. The
country can rest assured that Mr.. Cleye-
land will make a safe and conservative
President, that he will call about him as
his advisers the best men in his party,
and that he will favor no policy that will
tend 10 unsettle confidence in values or
disturb the industries of the country.

Georgia as a Trnck Farmer

1t is not exactly the time of year to
comment on the truck farming industry,
but the report of DR.. Powell, Superinten-
dent Of the Georgia Lunatic Asylum, cor
tains a document that reminds the public
that the State of Georgia itself is quite a
successful truck farmer through its rep
%resentatives at Milledgeville. The docu-
ment alluded to is the report of the gar
dener, Samuel A. Cook, Esq,
The garden of the asylum consists of a
little over seventy-fve acres, ard the
statement Of receipts and expenditures
show that, unlike most public enterprises
Of the kind, it not only pays its own way,
but considerably over 100 per cent. profit
besides. The expenses of the garden
during the year were $2,043, of which only
SS67 80 is charged to the labor account,
while $500 is charged to the REM of five
mules and two carts, md 1902 for fer
t~ilizers, including $500 worth of stable
manure made on the place. The balance
of the expense account consists of bills
for ~seeds-about scotland implements.
Tne account does not include the salary
Of the gardener, hence it may be taken as
a fair sample of a truck farm operated by
the owner.
The products Of the farm, all consumed
In the asylum, aggregate, at a low yalua-
ton. $4.5.I 80, and the prices placed on
many items appear to be much lower
than the asylum authorities would have
had to pay for them, had they been pur-
chased from outside parties. Among the
principal items are 4S4bushels Irish pota-
toes at 81, 80 bushels radishes at 50 cents,
- bushels English peas at 81, 204 bushels
tomatoes at 81, 800 bushels turnips at 80
cents, $500 heads cabbage at S cents, 1915
bushels butter beans at$1, and 600 bushels
sweet potatoes at 80 cents.
To more fully appreciate the value of
these figures as Illustrating the possibili-
ties Of properly conducted truck farming
in Georgia, it must be taken into con-
sideratiOn that the sell of the gardens Of
the asylum is not only thin and thirsty,
but also rocky, so as to render high cultl-
Walton very difficult, and that the present
season mas not been a favorable one for
farming operations Of any kind.

a correspondent asks: 90 'If a boy is
BORN in the United States, and his father
is not a citizen. is he a citizen when he is
of age, without taking out his naturali-
cation papers:" p "a man comes
from a foreign country and brings a son
nine years OF age, the father becomes a
citizen before the son is of age. When
the son becomes OF age is he a citizen
without taking out his naturalization
papers?'
The fourteenth amendment to the con-
stitution Of the United States provides
that 'All persons born or naturalized in
the United States and subject to the Ju-
risdiction thereof are citizens of the
United States and the State wherein they
reside" The first question has been re-
Gently discussed at length in the Ameri-
cen Lar Rerielr by a leading member OF
the san Francisco bar. He maintains
that birth does not necessarily confer cit
izenship, and that in order to constitute a
native or natural born person a citizen,
his father, or, in case of LEGITIMACY, his
mother, must be citizens ''at the time of
his BIRTH"
A recent decision in a case tried in the
Circuit Court of THE United States for Cali
fornia does rot sustain the above opinion.
A boy was born in California Of parents
who had resided 20 years in that State,
but who were subjects of the Emperor OF
China. The case was argued before three
Judges, and they held unanimously that
the boy was a citizen. The clause in the
amendment TO the constitution quoted,
Subject to the jurisdiction thereof" was
construed as intended to exclude from
citi ?enship only the children Of foreign
Ambassadors, children born on foreign
vessels in American waters, and persons
choosing to exercise the right OF expatria'
ton. The decision of the California court
must be regarded as good authority until
reversed by that Of the Supreme Court Of
the United States.
The second question is definitely an
swered in section PIP of the Revised
Statutes of the United States, which pro
yides that "the children of persons who
have been duly n%aturalized under any law
of the United States, being under the age
Of u years at the time Of the
naturalization of their parents, shall, il
dwelling in the United States, be cOnsid,
cred as citizens thereof"
Both questions are, therefore, answered
in the affirmative.

DON'T Cease to watch Them.

Eight districts have been counted. and the
ring have not been able TO get their itching
palms upon a single Cleveland vote, nor does
It seem possible that they can manufacture a
particle of alleged evidence on which TO drag
the matter into the courts. Still the charac-
tiers of the men engaged in this Repu llcan
conspiracy are so notorious. the desperation
of their chief and his fellows is so well Known,
that the one sentiment earnestly expressed
yesterday by all honest citizens who were
present was that not for one moment should
vigilance be relaxed in the watch upOn the
count until the last ballot is counted and the
result is ''signed, sealed and delivered to the
State authorities.

Tho Steam Whistle Nuisance.

If there is anybody III this city who is
authorized on his own motion to put an
end to nuisances, he ought to exercise
his authority at Once in putting a stop
to the eaT-splitting, sl~eep-arOGsing and
peace-disturbing practice Of filling every
neighbOFhood in the city with the horrible
and almost unbearable screenings of
steam whistles. These screenings are
heard at all times of the day, and in
almost every locality-near the railroad
depots, on the river, in the centre and in
the suburbs of the city. Every man who
owns, controls or manages a steam boiler
seems to have set his heart on
letting the whole city know when he has
gotten up steam. Early in the morning,
Just when about one-half CT the pOpula-
ton is enjoying a comfortable sleep the
whistles begin to toot and screech. The
victims Of these horrible noises. instead
Of rising refreshed and in a happy frame OF
mind, feel that they have been robbed of
the best part Of their rest and are con-
scious OF a desire to do somebody a bodily
injury as a set of to the injury that has
been done them. This whistling nuisance
has been suppressed in many OF the cities
Of the country, and if it were suppressed
here the majority Of the people would be
so glad that they would be tempted to eX-
press their joy by some sort ofpublic dem
Oustration.

Better to stay and rest at home in Maine
Than reach the White House by hook OF

For you have consultations, Brother Blaine;
Whatever else may fail, you have your book.
Better the great historians need Of praise.
His peaceful life, his quiet work wei done
Tnan restless nights and most laborIous days,
With bitter enmities that al should shun-
Better 10 fail through that eoneeIted set,

LAWYER one editor and four physicians.
or preachers there were eight admitted.
The lives Of farmers and ministers are
thought to be freer Of mental strain and
anxiety than those Of most other classes,
and hence q good many people may be
surprised at the above figures. II the sta
tistics prove anything it is that insanity
is not due TO mental strain and anxiety
alone. 4 sound mind in a sound body
will not give way easily. It is almost uni.
versally accepted that lunacy is the re.
suit of disease, and that a body perfectly
normal and healthy cannot contain an u
sound mind. Mental strain, anxiety and
overwork cannot produce insanity as long
as the health OF the worker is perfect.
The intelligent, progressive farmer, how.

to undergo, if the s~peculator is excepted.
