A QUESTION OF lNFLUENCE.-lt
is Mr.. Randall's victory. The Presl-
dents views on the tariff are his views,
and not those Of Speaker Carlisle or
Colonel Morrison at all. 1t is Just as
well that this should be understood in
the beginning. Washington Post.
Well, suppose it is understood what
then? Are the views Of Mr.. CAR
Isle and Mr.. MORRISON superior to
those of Mr.. RANDALL? Does the
Post accept the opinions on the silver
question entertained by Mr.. CARLISLE
and Mr.. MORRISON, or those Of Mr.
RANDALL?
But the fact is that, as every para
graph in his message shows, the Presi
dent has his own views" He stands
far higher to-day than he did weel
ago. His message stamps him as
man worthy to fill the executive chat
Of the greatest nation on the globe.

PURE WATER FOR ATLANTA
Here we have a stream of water as big
as a mans arm gushing from beneath
enormous beds Of granite, clear and
cold. The solid piping reaches through
successive strata Of granite an unbroken
depth Of more than five hundred feet.
1t is certain that every drop Of water
that gurgles from the spout is drawn
from at least that depth, which Is far
below the possibility of surface poison
or faint. 1t is as pure as the water
that springs from any rock in the noun
tain or that percolates through the
sands Of any woodland spring.
1t appears to settle definitely the
question of pure drinking-water for
Atlanta. The present well gives al
abundant supply Of water for acity twice
as large as Atlanta. When necessary
other wells can be sunk. 1t is The
smallest objection, that it requires
constant expenditure to pump this wa
ter. Atlanta could well afford it if i
cost twenty times as much.-Attant(
Constitution.
Note that that pure water is draw
"from beneath enormous beds Of gran
| ite."

A Good Suggestion.

The wsg of the National Republican
Is famous for what may be termed re-
cciling or kicking jokes--that is jokes
that suggest a line Of thought exactly
opposite to that they are intended to
suggest. Its latest blunderbuss effort
is aimed at Mr.. TILDEN, whom it
terms " Ex-President TILpEN." After
alluding to Mr.. TILDEN's we'll known
love of art and his recognition of the
influence of art in the cultivation Of
national taste and the formation of ma
tional character our Washington con-
temporary says;
"For these good and sufficient rea-
sons, and for others equally good but
te enumerate which were work OF SUI
pererogation, tie National Republican
feels that it stands on solid ground and
is braced by all the equities inherent in
a strong case when it appeals to 'ex-
President Tilden to send special
message to Congress urging the pur-
chase of Mrs. Fassitt's great painting.
The Electoral Commission to be per-
manently placed on the wall Of the east
room of the Executive mansion"
OF course the Republican intends
this as a joke, but the cream of the
Joke is that it affords food for serious
reflection. We heartily second the
Republicans appeal, and hope Congress
will purchase the picture without delay.
However, we would suggest that it be
placed in the rotunda Of the Capitol
instead of in the East room Of the Exc
cutive mansion. 1t should be where il
could be seen by the greatest number
of persons-where it would convey a
lesson to the masses and be perpetual
rebuke to the Republican party.
and a perpetual reminder OF the fact
that the patriotism Of our people ena-
bled this nation to withstand a strain
that would have plunged any other
country into anarchy. We know no.
thing of the merits Of the picture as a
work of art, but if it happens to be
a monstrosity so much the better. 1t
illustrates a monstrous fraud upon the
American people. and in the rotunda
would be in harmony with its alleged
artistic surroundings.

MORSE'S DAUGHTER.

seme Unhappy iucidents CONNECTED with Her
L,ie in Porto Rico.
The suicide of lady supposed to be
Susan Morse, a daughter of S. F. b.
Morse, inventor of the telegraph, by
jumping from the Spanish mail steamer
between Porto Rico and Havana, has
brought to light some interesting facts
relating to Mr.. Morse. Susan Morse
was a daughter of Mr.. Morse by his
first wife, and about 1889 married Mr..
Lind. Professor Antonio NJ. Molia,
native Of Porto Rico, who now lives at
l04 east Northumberland wenty-
fourth street. New York, said, in sub
substance, last night:
MIR. Lind came to the little town of
Arroyo. Porto Rico, and became the
superintendent Of large sugar planta-
ton. In due time he became owner Of
the plantation through his business
thrift, though popular tradition, amazed
at his success, declared he found for
tune in an old tree where early Spanish
buccaneers had secreted it. Arroyo is
the seaport Of the large town Of Guaya-
ma. and is almost made up of English
and A merican businessmen. Almost
all Of them came with the intention of
making money and then quitting the
country. Mr.. Lind, however, came
here to stay. and he built magnificent
house on his plantation about two
miles out in the country and surrounded
it with beautiful grounds, full of flow
ers, fountains, and ststuary.
j" Here Dir. Morse came while yet the
electric telegraph was ticking only in
his own imagination. In the quiet Of
Mr.. Lipd's palatial residence he thought
out his invention. Mr.. Lind had an
office in the town Of Arroyo. Mr.,
Morse had wire strung from the plan.
tation to this office, and over that wire,
in the little Spanish colony Of Porto
Rico, the first message ever sent b.

THE PRESIDENTS MESSAGE
Opinions OF Two Independent Republican,
Journals.

Cpin,ons OF Two Independent Republican,
Journals.
Philadelphia telegraph
The comprehensiyeness of Presi-
dent Cleveland's first annual message
to Congress may be inferred not so well
from its great length as from the fact
that it treats on, with more or less elab-
Grafton, upwards Of hundred distinct
matters. 1t covers. indeed, not only
the entire field of government, but OF
administration, and presents. as does a
chart the highways, currents, islands.
and reefs Of the sea, all the material
parts relating to the present condition
Of our foreign and domestic affairs
which it concerns the American people,
OF their representatives in Congress, to
be informed upon. But, exhaustive as
it is regarding matters Of great and lit
tie importance, it should be carefully
considered by the people to whom it is
indirectly addressed, as it is unques-
tionably a true and comprehensive his
tory of the affairs Of the country at the
present time.
boston Herald.l
The first message Of President Cleve-
land is marked by clear comprehen-
sion and firm grasp of all the public
questions which it treats. and by the
patriotic spirit, the courage Of convic'
ton, and the characteristic good sense
that have distinguished all his public
deliyerances. 1t is statesmanlike in its
scope, and businesslike in its manner o.
dealing with the multitude Of matter;
involved.

Anew Brunswick special says: The
fast mail arriving at this city at $50
A. NJ. flies through the city at the rate
of thirty miles an hour. The mail is
always thrown from the train, and
hitherto has safely landed on the depot
platform. This morning, however, the
bag struck the ground and Immediately
bounded back under the train, where,
with Its contents, it was ground into
fragments. The train sped on to Tren-
ton, and depot officials began the search
for the contents Of the bag. Envelopes,
money. bits of leather, and bank checks
were found at distance Of two miles
from the place where the bag was thrown
off. the track being literally Strewn with
fragments of paper. Postmaster Car
son Immediately informed post.oilice
officials and started for Jersey City to
inform the railroad officials. In conse-
quence of this accident the citizens Of
New Brunswick did not receive the GUS
tomary heavy mail from New York this
morning.

DR.. L. II. Hoskins says he has generally
secured specimens of apples from young
trees quite as soon as from top CRAFTS in old
ones.
There is peculiar fascination about the
business of fruit-growinR which often has q
dangerous tendency, that of OVERRIDING the
matter. 1t is we'll to have enthusiasm and all
that, but ''gumption" is the one thing neces-
sary, after ALL
1t is not advisable to drop out one of the
milkings and milk only once day when COWS
give but little in the latter part of the season.
The milk is not 80 good when drawn but once
day as when drawn twice a day, and under
once-a,day milking COWS shrink very rapidly
and dry up entirely very soon. II is better
to milk twice daily as long as the milk is saw
ed for use. The value of a small mess of
milk is not to be measured solely by the
quantity. The superior richness of small
yield should be taken into consideration in
estimating its value, and if this is done the
propriety of prolonging even a small flow
must be apparent
