4 GOLDEN PICTURE or The SOUr1

4 GOLDEN PICTURE OF The SOUTH.
The speech delivered by Mr.. Henry w.
Grady, of The Atlanta Constitution, at the din
ner of the New En- gland Society, in its spirit
and purpose, as well as in its dictOn and logic,
reached high plane in contemporary Oratory.
Mr.. Grady is the editor OF progressive South
ern Democratic newspaper. This occasion af-
fords us the grateful opportunity of remarkng
upon the earnest American inspiration which
gives character and importance to our Atlanta
contemporary. Under the patriotic guidance of
Mr.. Grady it has labored zealously to root ont
the old.and bad traditions which are collect
lively to be- described as Bourbonism, and has
constantly kept before its large constituency
those new indu strial and social conditions W it'll
out which material progress is impossible 70 the
South.
In his work Of reformation Mr. Grady has all
the courage and enthusiasm OF one who be-
lieves in his mission and in the final efficacy of
his methods. Indeed, he has seen so many
practical results of the work already done that
his tone is full of bnoyancy AMI encouragement
The new South he says, is a perfect demDc
racy, "a hundred farms for every plantati on,
fifty homes for every palace, and diversified
industry that meets the complex needs of this
complex age.n lie draws tender and poetic
picture of the long weary, arduOus struggles
by which an impoverished and onfeebed peo-
pie have recovered their strength, butt up
their fortunes and adjusted themselves to
strange conditions. He tells tx that the sting
of defeat has died away, and with it the bitter
ness born pf a hunblcd pride. lie makes
golden promise of the South that is to be, when
sectional schemes shall have given place TO en-
terprise not 20 be hemmed in By State bounda-
ries, and when the pride founded upon an oil
garchical system and buried under its remains
shall have sprung forth and bossomed into "A
patriotic allegiance to an indssoluble sOver-
eighty. He asks what message the North has
as q response to this.
There is but one thing to say. The nature
that could grudgingly or with strained courtesy
meet this frank and manly proiler of brother
hood must indeed be barren Of all grace and
nobility. To the South which Mr.. Grady repre-
sents every American WIN is worth his citizen
ship holds out sympathetic and admiring
hand. We are always glad to hear such testi
mony rs he brings us, and to learn how rapidly
his own sentiments of loyalty and equal rights
are extending. His statements show how rde
as we'll rs eloquent were the words of Dir.
Blaine: The South needs occupation. not con-
troversy." The position of those who protest
against political crime and outrage in the South

THE TIE-UP IN BROOKLYN.

Fortunately the tie-up in Brooklyn yesterday
was confined to the eleven lines controlled by
the Brooklyn City Railroad Company, and
although great inconvenience was caused,
nearly all parts of the city could be reached to
a greater or less extent by the other roads,
none of which we're affected by the strike. The
men chose an opportune time for themselves,
but one decidedly disadvantageous to shop
keepers and TO the thousands intent upon
Christmas SHOPPING. In spite OF the delay and
trouble thus caused there is no doubt that the
sympathies Of the public were with the strikers.
Their demand contained nothing unfair all
they asked was the assurance OF reasonable
treatment for the coming year. That the City
Company has not been disposed to treat its
men fairly is a palpabe fact Mr.. Hazard
was crowded out of the Office of president be-
cause of his well-knOwn desire TO pay fair
wages keep the men at work only reasonable
number of hours and in other ways treat them
like human beings The company has always
paid large dividends, but has shown little dis
position to accommodate the public and has
often tried to grind down its employees to the
lowest point.
Both the railroad officers and the strikers
showed wisdom in deciding to resort to arbitra-
ton. Now that settlement has been made, let it
be kept faithfully on both sides. lfbonds could
be given for the carrying out of the strict letter
Of the contradiction such it will virtually be-it
might be prudent arrangement. The
strikers, as a rule, showed moderation and
good sense yesterday. If such a spirit is
shown whenever manifest gr ovances occur,
they will be sure of carrying their point every
time

that caused such OF excitement in Stenway Hall

writing until sufficient time Is the disposal of the

can only be considered II one keeps his mental feet
which a difficult thing to do in the whirlwin o
enthusiasm that swept in and around Steinway Hall
last night.
The concert listened TO by numerous audience

stage to give out all the power at their command

provide for defects In the existing law in relation
to polygamy The bill was reported from the
House committee, but no effort has ever been

Democrats were never known to show much inter-

President who wrote so much about 1t in his I'll st
message, seems to have lost interest in it.

The Navy Yard over in Brooklyn seems to
be more or less of pest-hole. Violent typhoid
fever has broken out there which is plainly due
TO the condition of Whitney basin; and last
spring an epidemic of scarlet fevor prevailed at
the Marine Barracks. Prompt measures Tor
permanent relief will doubtless be speedily
taken by the Federal authorities; and the sani-
tary experts who are to investigate the sltua-
ton should not dawdle over their work while
the officers at the Yard lie dying.
The calmuess with which the leaders OF the
County Democracy shoulder the responsibility

words of participation in one OF the most dis
graceful incidents in the recent history OF
New-York politics. When they prate hereafter
of purify honesty" and "reform" in pol
itics, the public will know just how much i'm
portance to attach to their words that is, none

from Italy some weeks ago on one OF the

vessels to this port. If tho quarantine at
cuenos Ayres had been strict, and the city
clean, it should have been easy to keep the dis
Base out, or to stamp it out when it first APP
peared. Owing to the difference in the seasons
Ia the north and south temperate zones, the
chances are against the importation of cholera
germs from Buenos Ayres to NewYork. But

A Successful Economist.

It is really worth while for the wage
worker to save, although the process
has become so questionable among
men of fixed incomes that to follow
it is regaded almost as a mark OF &c.
centricity. The path to influence and
independence for the toiler begins and
steadily follows on the line Of small
economies applied in daily life. Ten
years ago, in a Pennsylvania manu-
featuring town, amachinist went home
one evening and said to his wife: 81
am tired Of this work for others, and
We'll turn over a new leaf. Iget So a
day. Now, we will put away $40 a
week, and live on the rest. five can't
live on it, we'll starve on it," He
carried out his determination. In
two years he had $1,000 in bank.
With this he began business for him

tracted by his energy, and now he is
at the head of one of the largest man
ufacturing concerns in his section,
Itch, prosperous and respected. What
this man did was nothing OF supreme
difficulty A strong, resolute will and
a fixed purpose were needed after his
determination became fixed. Why
should not such an example attract
the attention of other wage workers,
equally able and of like mental quail.
