The HERALD does not contend that the
difference is due to the tariff solely, but it
certainly is an important factor in de-
termiuing wages. One thing is sure-by
putting this country into an economic
condition similar to England we must
expect economic results similar to those
which exist there. The above array of
figures isuggerst sufficient food for re-
fiction. 49,,

There were probably not five PERSONS in
the room who believed the caucus ticket
would not be antagonized at the polls,
and the election on Tuesday, elsewhere
reported, fully justified expectations.

WANT TO BE RAILRoADERs.
Railroad Officials Overrun with Ap
plicants for Places.


81 never saw so many men wanting en-
ployment,n said a Central railroad official
yesterday. 1--WE are overrun with appli-
cants for positions. We have put on about
twenty additional train men since the busy
season opened, and we will hardly have need
for any more. There have been at least
fifty green men here every day for the last
month seeking employment as train hands, "
Where do they come from~
"a good many are Savannah men, but he
majority of them are countrymen. You see,
the crops are wound up now, and there is
very little to do until next year. Besides,
the crops have turned out worse than a
great many expected, and, as a con-
sequence, the farmers are in debt Some of
them come to try railroading BECAUSE they
have an idea that it is an easy and happy
life, and they work themselves nearly to
death trying to make it SO, but they have
never succeeded so far as have been able
to learn. A great many tire of railroading
after they have worked more than a few
months, and they return to farming
Others stick to their bad bargain, and
make good railroad men in the end"
"What wages do they get ~
Twenty, thirty and forty dollars per
month. Very few Of them are worth it.
when they are put on, because of their in
experience, out good man learns rapidly
and soon earns all the company is able tc
pay him"
1.-THE Central railroad has now on the
main stem, the Savannah and Macon
division, about fifty train hands. Some OF
them are pillow boys, but the best men are
those that have worked in blacksmith
shops, or iron foundres or machine shops
They have a pretty good idea of what is re-

BUSY RICE PLANTERS.
NO ESTIMATES OF LOSSES BY THE
FLOOD YET OBTAINABLE.

Planters Getting the Rice Out of the
Fields and Finding 1t Less Damaged
Than was at First Thought-Where
the Loss was the Heaviest-Thresh-
ing Resumed but the Grain Burned
and It's Quality Hurt.
Planters were very busy in the rice fields
yesterday examining the ricks and where
it was dry enough hauling out Of the fields
from the shocks. Some of the planters were
cutting rice which had ripened before the
freshet, and from which after submergence
the waters have receded.
Rice was being cut on Argyle island The
fields there suffered more than in any other
locality on the river, Enslow island ex-
cepted. All the young rice is destroyed,
but of the rice which was ready for the
sickle before the freshet, some of it is being
saved, notwithstanding the fact that it was
submerged for a week
None of the planters are willing to esti-
mate the extent of their losses, nor will
they consent to be quoted as to the approx
mate losses Of their neighbors They say
that no estimate can be intelllgently made
until they go over their entire crop. Some
will be damaged by rains, some by overflow
and some by heating. On the higher
grounds the freshet will do but compare
lively little damage.
The water did not cover the heads of the
rice on Col Screven's place, but came up to
them. That gentleman was not little sur
prised on the day his theory was published
of why the volume of water would not be
great enough to overflow his place, to find
that before night it was in his rice fields and
was rising rapidly. He thinks the rise was
greater at Augusta than was reported, be-
lieving that he should have had immunity
from overflow if it were no higher than the
telegraphic advices from head waters.
However, all the theories proved valueless.
Rutledge's place, Col. Screven's plantation
and the New river rice fields were all ex
pected to escape inundation, and they had
greater volume of water than the planta-
tons opposite the city, the New river fields
especially suffering heavily.
Threshing has been resumed on some of
the plantations, but it will be some time
before the rice can be milled, and a great
deal of the rice is now burned and its
quality deteriorated so that its value will be
materially deprecated.
