Chattanooga Facts VS.. Blaine Fic.
tiou

ton.
Mr.. Blaine is making an extraordinary
effort to convince the workingmen Of the
North that the negro labor of the South
threatens to reduce them almost to the
condition of paupers. The most effective
parts OF the speeches he is making
la Pennsylvania are those relating to the
effect OF the negro labor of the South upon
the white labor Of the North. In the
Maine canvass, in Beptem Der, this phase
of the labor question was prominent in
his speeches, but he did not pretend TO
state at that time the amount of wages
received by negro laborers, or to ma Ike a
comparison between the wages received
by the cOlored workingmen OF the South
and the white workingmen of the North.
Since he has been in Pennsylvania, how
occasion, told the workin gmen
of the iron districts of that
state that they would soon feel the effects
of competition with negro laborers of the
South, who he says receive only so OF 20
cents Gay; and he has pointed out that
unless they support the Republican par
ty, which favors the education of the ne
groes so they viii be able to command
fair wages, they will very soon be forced
to work TOR the same wages that the ne
groes now receive.
1t may be that Mr.. Blaine may be igno-
rant OF what the truth Is, and that he has
been misled in this matter by those who
are more interested In making a strong
political point than they are that the
truth shall be known. This view is chart
table to Mr. Blaine. The probabilities
are, however that he knows that he is
not stating the facts, and that he doesn't
care what the facts are so long as he can
make an effective argument. He knows
that it will take the iron workers and
miners of Pennsylvania a long time to
find out the truth, and that his statements
will be believed by them Notwithstanding
the denials OF them that are made In the
South.
In a dispatch from Chattanooga, pub.
lished in the MORNING NEWS Yesterday,
the statement is authoritatively made
that Mr.. Blaine's assertion respecting the
wages paid to negroes at the South is not
true. At Chattanooga, where important
iron manufacturing interests are located,
the negroes who do the same class OF
work the white men do are paid the same
wages. Even boys are paid more than
Mr.. Blaine says the men get.
Negro workmen at the larg-
est iron works in Chattanooga
are paid from 81 to SO per day, and some
who rank as skilled workmen receive as
much as "a per day. The same wages is
paid at Knoxville, Birmingham and other
places. II has been already pointed out
that negro plasterers, masons, carpenters,
and even farm laborers here in the South,
receive the same pay that white men do
for the same class Of work, and about the
same pay, all things considered, that
white men at the North do. 1t is proba-
bic, however, that Mr.. Blaine will go on
repeating his story, Notwithstanding the
fact that he knows it isn't true, because
it promises to serve his purpose better
than any other that he can invent.

rresidcnt Iiaonrs Report.

The annua report 0f the Central Kali
road and Bankiu4 Companf. To- tue year
ending Aug. 81. which we publish else
where this morn ~, shows the affairs OF
the company TO be in very satisfactory
condition. The not earnings of the COM
pany were $685. $50 30 greater than they
were tire previous wear, and the last divi-
dend would have been larger hut tor the
very satisfactory reasons That are given,
The aim of the ma agement al present
appears to be to improve toe properly and
increase its earning capacity rather than
to pay large dividends. The Central sys-
tenn is being gradually extended, and the
roads already embraced in it are being
brought up TO frst-class condition. The
changing OF the gauge OF the system was
expensive, but the advantages obtained by
the change Will much more than over
balance the cost.
Attention is called in the report to the
connection that is soon to be made with
the Kansas City, Fort Scott and Gulf road
at Birmingham. This connection can
hardly fail to be Of great benefit TO Savan-
nah. Already Birmingham iron is seek
ing the sea coast at this point, and 1t is
among the probabilities that the products
OF the great West which are distributed
to the markets of the world from Kansas
City will also seek the seaboard at this
point.
AS the Central is q Georgia institution,
and is mainly owned by Georgians, Its
Increasing prosperity and its gradual and
healthy extension are matters in which
Georgians generally, as well as the stock
holders, feel pride.

wolf is not likely to ever howl before Mr.. Cob
hardts door. His sister, Mrs. Fred Nelson, who,
by the way, has not yet made up with her big
blonde husband, is rich and will help Freddy when
heis in need. Freddy makes his home at her
house when in New York, but nowadays that is
not very often. He used to be one of the familiar
figures at Delmonco's in the evening, but now
the reverse is the case-he is one OF the strange
visitors. 1t looks decidedly as it Mrs Langt-y

would marry her quicker than wink If two
things could be secured-a divorce from her
present husband and her consent Her mort
cage investments in New York created the be-
lief that she was to make the city her

has changed her mind. Her plan to
become the owner of theater in London proves
that the foggy British metropolis will claim her
still. Perhaps Sir George Chetwynd, whom she
once declared was the only man she ever really
loved. and who blasted her name, is the cause OF
her clinglng to Great Britain. Gebhardt rs fear
fully jealous of Chetwynd, and when that gen.
tleman and Lord Lonsdale engaged in street
encounter over Mrs. Langtry, he was so wild
over it that he packed himself off to America
without bidding her goodbye. When she had
let him stay away long enough she sent him
letter to return. He needed no second bidding.

as if Bioomingdale would possess him.

masters of the thrd-class (who are now appoint

to the postoffce committee.
Mr.. Camden, rising to question of personal
privilege, sent to the Clerks desk and had read an
article in Cincinnati newspaper the Commercial
Gazette) on the subject of the proposed Payne
investigation, stating, in effect, that person
who had just returned from West Virginia re-
ported that Senator Camden, whose relations to
the Standard Oil Company were we'll known
representing that company in the Senate, had
telegraphed from Washington that only six
votes were necessary to carry the Senate
for Payne, and that they were prepared to paw
$50 coo each for them. He said that he was not
IN the habit of noticing newspaper articles, and
would not do so now, but that the article relat
ed to matter pending before the Senate, and
was intended to have effect on it. The article
was without any shadow of foundation. Its alb
