THE MORNING NEWS ANNUAL REVIEW
OF THE
BUSINESS OF SAVANNAH
WILL BE ISSUED THURSDAY, SEPT g, 1883

The usual complete and comprehensive expo
sition of the business of Savannah, known as
the Annual Trade Review, will be issued from the
of,ce Of the MoRNING NEWS, on Thursday, Sept
@. This edition has been for many years one OF
the features of the opening of the busy season
in this CITY. and is looked forward to by the bus
jness men of Savannah one of the chief
means of calling the attention OF the public to
savannah's business, and her prospects for the
coming year.
The annual review will give not only the sta
tisticts of cotton naval stores, rice, lumber and
other products, and the data concerning the
wholesale business of the city, and its manu-
factures and other industries, but 1t Will con-
tain an interesting account of what has been
done in the city during the past year, and tell
what its enterprising citizens have in hand for
the next. The closing year has been very
prosperous one, but that upon which we are
entering promises to be even more prosperous
matter that is of the greatest Importance,
and one that deserves especial notice, is that
Savannah is no longer place that strangers
fear to visit in the summer. In fact, with our
accessible seaside resorts the city has become a
sanitarium for people who come to enjoy the
sea breezes.
And the coming year; what Of itf Is it not
s'flled to the brim" with the highest anticipa
tions: There is to be a magnificent hotel, the
finest in the.south, new county court house
and new public building. There are to be
more railroads. more homes and more public
improvements.
No year in the history Of Savannah has been
brighter than that which has just closed The
city's growth in population and wealth, the
public improvements which have been and are
still being made, the erection of immense bust
ness houses, the Inauguration of new industries,
the extensions made by the two great railroads
which transport the products of Georgia and
adjoining states to our wharves, all prove that
Savannah is not only a growing, but very
prosperous city.
The business men of Savannah cannot make
better investment than by sending copies Of
the MORNING NEWS Annual Special Edition

ing an accurate account Of the business
of this city, is the best advertisement of the

Savannah. Advertisers will find it of great
value Space in its columns can be obtained

work and less wages, we will bury this man

the last time, it was on a distinctly tariff

Sheridan's Last Speech.
From the Chicuoo NstUs.


WASHINGTON Aug 6.-Sheridan's last public
speech was made at the reunion of the army of
the Potomac year ago. He appeared to take
a great deal OF pleasure on that occasion and
often referred to it subsequently The reunion
closed with q sociable at Edels gardens, just
across the street from the postof1ice depart

there and war songs were sung and the officers
were asked to tell stories to the soldiers congrr-

called out until about a dozen men had broken
the ice, when finally the cries for Sheridan be
came so great that Little Phil" stepped to the
front. There was great applause. and the boys
"guyed" him for full minute before he was
permitted to say anything. When finally he did
open his mouth he said

and the joy at meeting him personally was so
great that his reception verged into an ovation
and completely broke up the meeting.

The Hon. John c. New has arrived in
New York from Indiana and loses no time
to say that exGov. Porter's refusal to head
the republican state ticket will not injure the
psrtys prospects. According to this re-
publican spokesman, Gov. Porter is advanced
in years and is not disposed to take upon
himself the cares and excitement of a cam
paign This is not the solution given by
another Indianian. Judge Mcdonald says
Porter is an ambitious man, and refused to
run because he thought he would be beaten.
Which one of these opinions is correct! 1t
seems unreasonable that a republican would
decline a nomination which he thought to
be equivalent to an election.

There has been a good deal of curiosity to
know whether Mr.. Cleveland fished on
Sunday when no went on his recent fishing
excursion. The New York Worlds Wash
ington correspondent throws some light
on the subject. His informant is one of the
gentlemen who composed the party, and
who says: 1--WE sat out on the deck, coolly
clad, smoking and chatting. Nobody had
said a word about fishing the next day, but
nearly everybody had thought about it,
and the opinion had even been expressed
that it would be a pity to lose a day, the
very day when fish bite best. Suddenly the
President leaned back in his chair, knocked
the ashes off his cigar, and said, in his
deliberate way of talking: Now gentle
men, what shall we do tomorrow Some of
you may want to fish. People do some
times fish on Sunday, and l don't want to
be in the way or interfere with your pref
erences l don't fish Sundays myself. /

There appears to be no doubt that Jack
sonville has ten or a dozen cases of yellow
fever, and she may have a serious epidemic
of that disease. 1t is yet too soon to form
an intelligent opinion as to whether the
fever is of a malignant type, or whether 1t
is likely to be confined to its present mar
row limits and be soon stamped out. OF
course all places which consider that they
are in danger of being infected will quaran-
tine against Jacksonville. That course is
to be expected. If the marine hospital
service were authorized to take charge of
the whole quarantine business. there would
be feeling of greateF security on the part
of exposed communities, and there might
be less interruption of trade and travel.
There would certainly be greater uniform
ity in the enforcement Of quarantine.

Republican Insincerity.

Discoveries are constantly being made
showing that the republicans are not sim
cere when they tell the workingmen OF the
country that the republican party is their
friend because it advocates q high protect
i've tariff The truth is, that the republi-
can party is not the friend Of the working
men. Itwould be difficult to find protec-
zionist who has divided with his workingnen
the enormous profits which the protective
system has enabled bin to make. Andrew
Carnegie said that in one year his share of
the profits of the iron mills of his company
amounted to 81, 800, 900. Did he increase or
offer to increase the wages of his employees
that year! If the truth were known, it
would probably appear that he is always in
favor of reducing wages.
The great manufacturing and mining
monopolies never increase the wages of
their worlungmen unless they are forced to
do so, but the instances in which they have
reduced wages are numerous. They are
constantly trying to get cheaper labor, and
at the same time are demanding a high
protective tariff for the benefit, as they
allege, of workingmen.
A day or two ago there was an interest
ing case tried before Hoboken On. J.)
court The defendant was one of the
wealthest silk manufacturers of New
Jersey and a republican. The plaintiff was
a woman employed IN his factory. She
sued to recover portion of her wages
which had been retained to
cover the expense Of bringing her
to this country. In the testimony it came
out that this manufacturer who, doubtless,
is great advocate of the protection of
American labor, has been importing cheap
contract labor from Europe. He doesn't
care anything for the interests of American
laborers He wants high protective tariff
in order that he may enjoy larger profits
A rather curious story was told in New
York the other day to the Ford committee
that is investigating the charges that the
contract labor laws are being constantly
violated at that port. The story, in brief,
was that 800 Italian laborers were i'm
ported in one lot, under contract to work
for ten hours day at 81 20 per day. 1t
is said that they are at work
on a railroad in New York of which Mr..
Chauncey Depew is president Mr.. Depew
was a candidate for the republican presi-
Dental nomination, and has often spoken
eloquently of the necessity for protecting
American labor.
Do not these two instances show quite
conclusively that the republican party in
sists upon high protective tariff for the
benefit of the monopolists, and not for that
of the workingmenG The democratic party
proposes to give workingmen cheaper neces-
saries of life. What does the republican
party propose to give theme Nothing but
cheap whisky and tobacco. Is not the
democratic party then better friend to
them, and moro deserving of theirGsupport,
