CHARITY BEGINS AT HOME.

The Gainesville Courant, noticing
the proposition to raise s25, 1000 to
build schoolhouse in China for Miss
Laura Haygood, says:
1T is a humiliating fact that even
the sacred mission cause is tangled
up with many and divers Quixotic
schemes. We are hardly emerged
from the strain of an immense Anglo
Chinese university before we are
plunged knee deep into a struggle to
build high school edifce in China
at the small cost Of S25, 900. Why
not put it at $250,000, or even add
one or two more 0's? A schoolhouse
in this section costing S25 900, for
the children of poor Methodists,
would be goodly sight to behold,
and unless charity begins nearer at
home and takes hold of the heather
at our very doors, it would be well to
emigrate to China for increased edu-
cational facilities"
The Gainesville Courant is right
in the above. Money has been sent
out to China to build Universities.
while in Wyoming territory last week,
the white inhabitants slaughtered
about 80 Cinnamon, burned then
homes to the ground, with ten sick
Cinnamon in them, and drove 800 OF
them to the mountains and hills.
some wounded and others left to
starve and die. And yet if 600 Amer
leans quietly at work in China had
been set upon in this manner and
slaughtered by Cinnamon, the hugh
and cry would have been raised about
the abominable heathenism of the
''heathen Chinee." Well, if Ameri
cans who are trying to civil
ize and Christianize Cinnamon are
guilty of such barbarism, then i
would seem that the people in thi
country are 'straining at gnat ant
swallowing a camel" and that GU
missionaries could find work neare
home to occupy their time, talent
and money.
The Cinnamon might very appro
priately say unto the Americans
who send missionaries to their land

Tom Davis was killed in New York
the other day by j. 7. Holland of
Albene, Texas. Davis proposed to
sell counterfeit money He counted
out $4,000 in good money and then
placed it in sachel. Davis brother
was in an adjoining room and by
slipping a panel in the partition he
exchanged the sachel for another one
containing worthless paper. Holland
saw the trick and shot Davis dead.

4 GOOD BILL.

One Of the best bills introduced in
the Legislature is measure that
tends to make good the legal interest
and principal where money is loaned
on title deeds as security. Thepresent
law, where there is more than eight
per cent charged, makes the deed
void if tainted with usury, and leaves
the lender no legal resource but
toobtan an uncertain legal judgment.
The bill now before the Legislature,
if passed, as we hope it will be, makes
good the title for the principal and
legal interest, sweeping away the ex-
cess charged in the contract If this
bill passes it will cheaper money by
increased confidence in the security
given, and will be but enforcing just
lee and honesty between man and

A GOOD SHOWING.

The trade of Savannah for the com
mercial year ending August 81, shows
that the year was a prosperous one
for the city, Notwithstanding the pre-
yailing depression. The whole bust
ness of the city is estimated at $685.
100000, a very large increase over
the business of the previous year.
The receipts Of cotton were 651 900
bales greater than the preceding
year, which is somewhat remarkable
in view of the fact that the cotton
crop was smaller. The report also
shows that Savannah leads all the
other cities i'll her receipts of long sta
pie cotton and in the naval stores.
There are marked increase in the
city's wholesale business and her re-
tail trade. During the year $50 new
buildings were erected. It's estima-
ted that the receipts of cotton the
present year will reach 1000, 1000
bales. The reviews shows that the
city is enjoying solid prosperity,
and that cheerfulness and confidence
prevails in business circles.

WAR OR REVOLUTION.

Germany, by one of her gunboats,
out-generaled the Spanish fleet at
zap, one OF the Caroline Islands, and
run up the German flag on the
heights. This caused great indigna-
ton in Madrid, and a mob demoish-
ed the German legation headquarters.
The Caroline Islands were discovered
by the Spaniard Lopez in 1913, and
nominally belonged to Spain. In
1868 this archipelago was seized by
England, but lapsed back into Spain.
The area is about $40 square miles
and the population about 10000.
The red flag has been Haunted and

THE OHIO CANVASS.


ton, Ohio, Gov. Hoadly referred to
the recent speeches of Senator Sher-
man and Judge Foraker in the fol-
lowing language "The leader of the
Republicans Of Ohio has carefully
prepared an appeal to his party and
sent it from the stump through the
press to the country. He waves the
bloody shirt. He indorses the policy
Of alienation and hate. He seeks to
transplant and cultivate in this coun-
try the feelings of the English arts
tocracy towards the Irish, to arouse
section against section, to govern the
South from the North, as Dublin
Castle governs Ireland, as conquer
ed province, and all this in the year
of grace, 1SS5-twenty years and
more after the end of the war.
''The average life of an ordinary
generation is 30 years. Owing to
the casualties of war, which cost our
country at least |, 100000 lives, the
duration of the generation now passing
away has been less than this. Tween
ty-iiye years have elapsed since Lin
coins election. Five-sevenths, per-
haps more, of the men who devised
the rebellion, the men who fought it's
battles and the men who Overcame it,
have passed away. The great civil
and great military leaders, Lincoln
and Grant, both sleep in graves bath
ed in the tears of the whole nation,
South and North, for both died with
words upon thir lips and feelings in
their hearts Of charity to all and
malice towards none. Seward and
Sumner, Chase and Fessenden, Doug
las and Stephens, Lee and Brecken-
ridge, these are historic, not living,
names.
Alone of the authors of the rebel
lion Jefferson Davis survives. Boys
born when the war broke out have
been voting for three years past.
Boys born after the war will vote
next year. Boys too young to bear
arms are now mature men of 30.
There is new South and a new
North. A new generation full of
new life is at work. A very large
proportion Of the people of the South
have never seen a slave, and have
lived under no other regime but that
of universal suffrage. Is it not time
for the Shermans and Forakers to
accept the results of the war and no
longer to continue in battle?
Eight million bales of cotton, the
probable crop this year, are in sight.
There are no idlers in the South.
Why croak in the North? White
men and black men are side by side
at work. The South is developing
new industries, weaving cotton cloth,
digging coal and iron, forging steel.
God and nature, religion ard human
heart are the forces against which
Sherman and Foraker contend and
foster plots.
To policy ofalienation, the speak
er said that the Democratic party OPP
posed union, for hate it substituted
love. Let us then Danish these un-
manly fears of Southern wrong do
ing, said the speaker, "and cease
to exagerate occasional personal con-
tlicts into wars of races. Danville
and Copiah are worn out. Turn out
some new grist, oh, grinders of the
outrage mill! Home rule and rs lit
tie application of the eternal princi-
pies OF regulation as is consistent
with the greatest liberty, all will in
time cure all the ills of State and ma
ton.
