One Cent Pieces.

From the EGtont0n GA Chronicle.
IL seems 10 US that 1t would be oonven-
lent in making change to cent, for mer-
chants and all business men to receive
and circulate the one cent pieces. We
understand, however, that there is great
trouble and inconvenience about the mat
ter. The Postmasters refuse TO take them,
as also the express agent, for the reason
they will soon have an accumulation
Of them on hand, and will have to
ship to headquarters at their own ex-
pense. Now II these gentlemen could dis
pose Of them 10 our business men It would
make no difference, we imagine. In larger
cities the circulation Of the copper is con-
venient, and 1t is the saving OF this one
cent in change that helps so perceptlbly
10 distinguish a Northern man, who econ
Omizes, from bis Southern brother, who
scattereth abroad, careless ofshis pennies.

An Immediate Delivery Joke.

A Macon lady read of the great con-
venience of the immediate delivery sys-
TEN. Like almost all women, she read it
hurriedly, and then thought she knew as
much about it as the postmaster. Satur-
day the cold wave set in and she wanted
to order up ton of coal Immediately.
Suddenly thinking of the immediate de-
livery, she sent servant to the post office
for 10.cent stamp. She wrote the order,
enclosed it in an envelope and applied the
stamp. Then she sent 1t to the nearest
mail box, which was nearly three blocks
away. When night came the coal had not
arrived, and her faith in the immediate
delivery system was shaken. The letter
remained in the box until late in the af-
ternoon when the letter carrier made his
rounds, and by the time he reached the
post office and the letter was delivered ii
was too late for the coal man to fill the
order.
All that afternoon she looked for the
coal. The air was growing chillier, and
there wasn't a lump in the house. She
fretted herself in fury, and the imme-
date delivery system, the postal service
and the coal dealer came in for round of
abuse. The family went to bed that
night shivering. but next morning the me-
gro with his wagon OF coal was on hand.
After listening quietly to the lady, who
was still abusing the new postal feature,
the negro said:
"Yas'm; de boss was 'sprized ter git yer
order dat way, but he 'sposed yer tellum-
phone was broke"

lady. 81 never once thought Of using my

From the Edt0nt0n GA Chronicle.
A hoax is an impOsition--a fraud--but
a gentleman who thought himself Latin
scholar came across the word In his
reading and looked in vain for IL In his
lexicon. Meeting a school boy he said,
"Can you tell me what the Latin word
hoax means?' The boy looked but
couldn't find il. He asked an old friend
who understood the word and who defined
il TO the satisfaction Of the enquirer. Said
the friend, "Ho-ax, why Of course; IL
means what we call mattock-an ak on
one side and a hoe on the other" The
Latin scholar was thoroughly satisfied

The rice crop Of Liberty has received
great damage from the storm. Where the
rice was cut down, it was fiOated away

even then much OF il escaped. Where the
rice was standing in the fields It was Gov

in the swamps nearer the railroad, the
loss is estimated at 40 per cent.

What an Old Farmer Saws.

A Republican the other day was seeking
to twit a Democrat, an old farmer in the
northern part of New York, about the
hard times We were to have under the
Democratic administration. The old far
mer listened to him quietly and respect
fully, and finally remarked: "My good
friend, did you ever know a farmer, no
matter how thrifty, who could take farm
that had been running for twenty-four
years and get good crop off of it inside
of six months? l guess not. It takes
some time to repair the fences, improve
and strengthen the soil, clear out the
weeds and briars and thistles, open up
the drains, bitches and water courses,
drive away the vermin and renovate the
farm and buildings in general This is
just what the administration is doing now
putting the national farm in order.
Wait until we get the farm which the
Republicans have been letting down for
years, improved and in good condition
and then you will see some beautiful
crops; the whole country will laugh with
rich harvests and the people will rejoice
in prosperity. My friend, the good times
are coming-wait little longer" The
Republican acknowledged the force of
the argument and promised to vote the
Democratic ticket hereafter.

Il is unnecessary to proue that, iUith3Gt SOME

1t will doubtless be urged by those who
favor the disfranchisement OF the Nor
mons on the ground of their belief and
the claims of their priesthood, that the
cases are entirely different and that no
one will attempt to justify the treatment
of the Catholics in England during Eliz-
abeth's reign 1t is easy to see the injus-
tice and bigotry of three centuries ago
and to show how foolish were the exces-
sive apprehensions of the men of those
times, but how hard it is to see the
bigotry and excessive apprehension OF
to-day when contemplating the Mormon
problem. The history of civilization IS
but the history of the advancement OF
thought and the freedom of discussion and
their repression by those in power under

opinions, as they were termed, were
danger and a menace 10 the Church or
the State, or to both. If Mormons are to
be deprived of their civil rights on the
ground OF their opinions, and because
they believe their church is the veritable
Kingdom of God on earth, and that
Christ is coming to reign over them and
all the earth for a thousand years, it
should be remembered that this belief
concerning the Kingdom of Heaven is
the common belief of Christians, and is
as obnoxious in one set as in another. 1t
should also be remembered that Socrates
was compelled to drink the hemlock be-
cause of his erroneous opinions and
teachings, opinions and teachings that
were held to be dangerous to Athens. 1t
should be remembered that Savanarola
was put to death for opinions sake, and
because he was a danger to the State;
and likewise it should be remembered
that Gilileo only escaped the same fate
by his recantation of heretical doctrines.
1t should never be forgotten that even the
best OF men are fallible, and that great
bodies of men are as liable to err as small
bodies, and as Mil says concerning the
fallibility of mankind, unfortunately for
the good sense of mankind, the fact of
their fallibility is far from carrying the
weight in their practical judgment which
is always allowed to it in theory"
Already this article has exceeded the
limits originally intended, but in conclu-
sion and as a correct statement Of the
power of government to interfere in mat
ters of opinion, the ground upon which it
is claimed that all Mormons should be
denied the elective franchise, we will
quote from the opinion of the Supreme
Court III the case OF Reynolds VS..
United States:
Laws are made for the government of &C
tions and while they cannot interfere with
mere religious belief and opinions, they
may with practices"

ARRESTING THE LEADERS.

The telegraph brings news that the
Sheriff of Sweetwater county has arrested
some twenty-five of the rioters who were
engaged in the massacre of Cinnamon at
Rock Springs. The charges against the
prisoners are those of murder, arson,
rioting and robbery, things of which
some one was certainly guilty II these
men who have been arrested by the Sheriff
Of Sweetwater county are the guilty par
ties, it is to be hoped that they may
be convicted of their crimes, and
that they may pay the penalty OF those
crimes. The Territory of Wyoming can
not afford to have it said of her that muir
der and arson within her confines can go
unpunished. While she owes duty to
herself in this respect, she also owes
protection to all people within her bor-
ders, no matter what their race, no mat
ter what their color, no matter how un-
popular they may be. 1t is to be hoped
that the rioters of Rock Springs may be
brought to justice in the interests OF the
law, of civilization and humanity for if the
Rock Spring rioters may go unwhipped
OF justice it will be an invitation and a
license to mobs everywhere. If men
may murder and burn and plunder in
Wyoming Because they do not like GER
tain class OF laborers, why may not the
Anarchists and Socialists OF the eastern
cities raise the red flag and murder and
burn with impunity? The Anarchists
and Socialists complain of the employer,
and would kill him and all who belong
to his class, while the men at Rock
Springs complain OF the employed, the
class for whom they pretend so much
sympathy. Lawlessness has come
to dictate the law, and mems baser pas
sions assume to decide all things. The
Rock Springs massacre is a terrible and
horrible thing OF itself, but it has great
importance as showing the state of mind
and feeling with hundreds of thousands.
Within fortnight the country has viewed
with alarm the demonstrations of the
Knights of Labor on the Wabash svs-
tenn, and it is not at all improbable that
had the Wyoming massacre not occurred
there would have been serious trouble on
the Wabash; but the deplorable mas
sacre at Rock Springs has given a
check to the headlong tendencies
of nany of the laboring classes
toward anarchy. And it is well
that the check has come. The massacre
at Rock Springs has its lesson, and if it
can but teach employers and employed
that they are mutually dependent the
one upon the other, and that each has its
rights which the other is bound to respect,
the country may safely hope to see no
more such outrages as that at Rock
Springs week ago, and to see better
and more considerate and conciliatorv
feeling grow up between labor and
capital

of America and not "of the water" can
never have so keen an interest IN
aquatic sports as those whose lives have
been spent on the sea shore, still they
cannot but feel thrill of enthusiasm as
they read that the Puritan" was in the
lead of the "Genesta" when the race was
postponed 1t is the same spirit of en-
thusiasm which every citizen must feel
when his country is engaged in rivalry
with another, and his own country secures
the prize or wins the victory. England
has been the cradle and home of sailors
and sea sports, and she has ever been in
the ven in matters pertaining to
vessels = heir construction, and their speed.
Tie sea has almost been the English
mans home as much as Albion, and ever
since the days of the vikings they have
been kings of the sea. But the Gamer
lea" took from them some cherished
laurels which they have never been able
to recapture, and although the "Genesta"
is noble and graceful craft, so far as
Yesterdays race went she is inferior in
speed and sailing qualities to the "Puri-
TAM" If England is again defeated
and Sir Richard Sutton returns with
out the coveted prize, Americans may
be sure that English pride will
rouse itself to build a better boat with
which to beat the Puritan" and Amer
leans must never forget that the price of
the Americas" cupis like that OF liberty
itself-eternal vigilance. That the ''Puri-
tan" may win the prize which the
"Genesta" was built to win is the hope
OF every American.
