1t is difficult to understand how so
many unfounded rumors get into circula-
tion in Washington. Some of the CORES
pondeuts there do not attempt to find out
whether the rumors are true or false, pro-
vlded they are sensational, or can be made
TO serve political purpose. They send
them out for publication Sometimes
they put them in such shape that they
appear to be more than mere rumors.
A day or two ago the Philadelphia
Press published a Washington special in
which it was stated that ex-Gov. Thomp-
son, the successor to Mr.. William +.
Smith, as Assistant Secretary OF the
Treasury, had already reiustated a num-
Der of Republicans who had been dis
missed by Mr.. Smith, and that, there
fore, he was likely to he praised by Mug
wumps and condemned by Democrats.
AS a matter of fact. Gov Thompson has
done nothing which justiGes the state
ment in the Philadelphia Press. He was
only confirmed last Tuesday and will not
take charge Of his office until tomorrow,
and could not, therefore, have reinstated
anybody. 1t is probable that he doesn't
even know that Mr.. Smith discharged any
considerable number Of Republicans, and
It'll not probable that he would undo Mr..
Smiths work before ne took possession Of
his office. No one yet knows, perhaps,
what Gov. Thompson Will do with respect
10 the officials who will come Immediately
under his direction, but whatever course
he decides to pursue, it is certain that it
will be in harmony with justice and the
civil service law.

The State and Public Schools.

Many sections of Georgia appreciate the
benefits OF an effective public school
system. The people in these sections
notably in some of the more progressive
cities ana tOwns-have taken the matter
in hand under the provisions of our school
laws, aud have done what should be done
in every county Of the State-they have
taxed themselves to maintain first class
public schools for at least nine months in
the year.
This is a good time for this subject to
be discussed. There is nothing that is
needed so much as a thorough public
school system, and as most of the c0un-
ties seem to feel delicacy in taxing
themselves to maintain such system
the State should step IN and increase the
public school term Immediately on the
assembling of the General Assembly to at
least six months in the year, and levy a
tax sufficient to pay the additional eX-
pense.
There is no tax that can be so easily
paid as a school tax, and there is none
that would tend so much to benefit the
people, develop the resources, and exten d
the influence of the state. Ignorance is
no longer considered to be bliss, hut is
esteemed misfortune of near akin to
crime, for 1t leads almost inevitably to
degradation and crime. The educational
wants OF Georgia are now not only very
great but peculiarly pressing. The peace
and safety of society and the security of
the commonwealth in the future can only
he assured by the thorough education of
the children Of the rising generation. The
people would hardly feel n tax of one mill
on the dollar, but such tax would go far
towards giving Georgia a creditable pub
lie school system.

President Lincoln's Diplomacy.

Senator Eustis, of Louisiana, in his In
terestng remarks in the Senate a few
days ago on the lie and character OF the
late Congressman Hahn, OF that State,
called attention to matter OF historical
Importance which does not appear to have
attracted much attention from the histo-
rians of our civil war.
Louis Napoleon, Senator Eustis stated,
was only restrained from recognizing the
southern Confederacy by the obstinate
refusal OF the English Ministry to CO.
operate with MIN in that direction, the
Ministry itself being controlled by public
sentiment in England.
Louis Napoleon was disposed to be ag-
gressiye, and the failure of the Federal
government to make good the oft-repeated
assurances of Mr. Seward, Secretary OF
State, that the war would be of short dura-
ton, emboldened him to assume a very
hostile attitude to the Federal cause.
President Lincoln was afraid that he
might be so fully convinced that the Con-
federacy would be successful that he
would recognize it and propose an alli-
ance between it and the Latin empire
TO offset the arguments that the Fed
eral armies were making no progress to-
wards recovering control of the Southern
States, which Louis Napoleon was using
to influence other European governments
to Join him IN recognizing the Confeder-
acy. MIR. Lincoln determined to make it
appear that not only were the Federal ar
mics getting possession of Southern ter
ritory, but that civil government was be-
ing re-established there under Federal
auspices with the view to an early re-
union Of the States.
In order to carry out his plan he ordered
8 convention called in Louisiana for the
purpose of making constitution and
nominating civil officers. This work vas
intrusted to Michael Hahn, the late Con-
gresham, and he accomplished it to the
satisfaction Of at least himself and the
government at Washington. At that
time the Federal army had control Of the
city and few of the parishes along the
Mississippi river. This amount OF terri
tory was, however, deemed sufficient, and
it was treated as il 1t were the
whole State. The convention was
called and did It's work. Mr.. Hahn was
chosen the first Governor under the new
order OF things. He was pleasant gen.
tleman Of considerable ability, and was
much more DESTROYS OF rewarding his
friends than Of Furnishing his enemies.
The new government did not last long
and Gov. Hahn was appointed military
Governor. Mr.. Lincoln, however, accom-
plished his purpose. The fact that civil
governments were being established in
the Confederate States helped to defeat the
efforts of Louis Napoleon to get other
European governments to join with him
in recognizing the Contederacy.

DESTRUCTIVE FIRES.

Scarcely day passes in which a de.
structive fire does not occur some where
on the Pacific Coast. In few hours
whole villages are reduced to ashes and
many people left homeless and destitute.
Alturas, in Modoc county, California,
about sixty miles from the northwestern
boundary of this county, was burned last
week, and the next day Independence, in
lnyo county, California, which is also On
the eastern slope Of the Sierra, was re-
duced to ashes. This was followed by fire
as Dayton on the Carson river, which des.
troyed $30,0O0 worth of property, on
which there was only $1,000 insurance.
In nearly every instance these fires re-
suit from carelessness. Our people
should therefore take warning and be ex.
ceedingly cautious with fire, especially
when the wind blows. Everything is
now as dry as a parching sun can make
it, and spark might cause devastating
confagration.

CUTTING OFF WELLS, FARGO & co.

Well, Fargo & Co. have closed theil
express offices in Montana as we'll as in
Idaho. This is owing to decision Of
Judge Deadly, of the United States Dis
trict Court in Oregon, based upon de-
cision of the United States Supreme
Court in the case of the Missouri Pacific,
holding that one common carrier could
net be required to carry business for
another common carrier. This is the
final issue of the controversy between
.he Northern Pacific Express Company
and Wells, Fargo l. Co., as to whether
the former should be compelled to carry
the business of the latter The decision
holds good as to all express business on
the Northern Pacific lines, and operates
to bar Wells, Fargo & Co. from doing
any business over the Northern Pacific
lines.
