Mr.. Inman's Visit.

Mr.. John H. Inman, the president Of the
Richmond Terminal, which controls three
great railroad systems in the south, the
Georgia Central, the East Tennessee, Nir-
ginia and Georgia and the Richmond aud
Danville, had talk yesterday with some of
the leading men of this city respecting the
Terminals policy. 1t is understood that Mr..
lnman shapes that policy. WHAT he says,
therefore, is worthy of careful considera-
ton. He Is a southern man, and has the
reputation of being a very straightforward
one.
OF course the Terminals purpose is to
make money for those who are interested in
IL. 1t is not properly a railroad company.
bat a security company. Mr.. Inman says
that to make the securities which it has
valuable, the railroads which it controls
must be prosperous, and in order that the
roa IS may be prosperous, the country
| tributary to them must be prosperous. The
| effort Of the Terminal, therefore, will be to
build up the tributary country. This APP
pears to be reasonable

because the Interstate and state commissions

Terminal wishes to make money, therefore,
it must build up the country upon which it
depends.
No port will be favored at the expense of
other ports of the Terminal but it is as
serted that ali of them viii nave their busi-
ness greatly increased. The increase will
come from traffic that now finds an outlet
at New Orleans, Galveston, and even New
York
There are two Instructions in the way of
the Terminals programme-one is the
courts and the other is the Georgia legisla-
ture. The courts have only interpreted the
constitution, hut the legislature seems bent
upon hostile legislation.
Perhaps, however. neither the courts
nor the legisl ture will be found to be a seri-
Gus obstruction. IF the Terminals policy
proves to be rs friendly to the peoples in
terests as it seems to be, the legislature will
hardly maintain its hostile attitude.
While the legislature is being satisfied on
this point, however, the Terminals inter
priSes are at a staldstill. In the face of a
threatening legislature capitalists hesitate
to accept the Terminals securities and al
vance it the money it needs. This is about
the situation at present. Mr.. Inman has
made it very clear. 1t must be admitted
that he has presented it frankly. The I'M
preston he creates il all in his favor

Coln1itt,s Timely Advice.

The address of Senator Colquitt before
the legislature on Tuesday, thanking that
body for rejecting him, and expressing
his determination TO stand by the demo
cratic doctrine of tariff reform, was short
and to the point On the tariff the senator
expressed the sentiments of the great ma
iority of the democrats of the state.
The senator condemned the disposition
which few have shown since the election
to abandon the tariff principles of the
party He said that only a trimmer or
a traitor would abandon the effort to re-
duce the burden of taxation because Of
defeat
The democracy of Georgia gave major
ity of $4,000 in favor of tariff reform, and
they knew what they were doing when they
cast their ballots. They had heard the
tariff question DISCUSSED throughout long
campaign, and there is every reason to
believe that they voted in accordance with
their convictions. The few who are striv-
ing to have the Democratic party of Geor-
gia abandon its position on the tariff can
hardly have the best interests Of the party
in view.
lneTe IS a movement 10 nave a ItSOIullpli
adopted by the egi lature favoring a re-
peal of the taxes on tobacco and whisky. 1t
is reported that the committee on the state
of the republic will report favorably such
resolution to the House Can Georgia dem
ocrats consistently approve such resolu-
ton. An approval of it would mean the
abandonment of the democratic position on
the tariff, and the adoption Of that of the
republicans,
TIE republicans, in their nation al plat
form, said that they favored the repeal of
the tax on whisky before surrendering any
part of tine protective system. If the whisky
and tobacco taxes are repealed. there will be
no reduction OF the tariff taxes The
present tariff taxes will he needed to meet
the demands of the government.
Those who are urging the legislature to
instruct our representatives, in congress to
favor the repeal of thu whisky and tobacco
taxes can hardly be in sympathy with the
democratic doctrine of tariff reform. They
are lacking in fidelity to the democratic
cause, and are throwing Instructions in the
way of democratic success in the future.
If the legislature is true to itself, and to
the people whom it represents, it viii heed
the words Of Senator Colquitt, uttered in
his address on Tuesday, and consign tho
free whisky and tobacco resolution to OBJ

A Libel on the Young Housekeeper.

From the San Francisco Chronicle.
But still the young housewife goes to market
Just the same and asks for things that do not
exist and SHOWS a lamentabe ignorance of tue
anatomy of animals and the inside of cookery

cookery book that was not bad. ! think those
cookery concoctors make up receipts as must
clans write music. They sit down and think Of
all the things that can be used as condiments
and bases of Dishes and they just make the
whole business UP, and never try them, even on
a dog. Take pound OF -four aud bucket Of
water and cupful of yeast and a half pound of
sugar. and little lemon. and a tablespoonful of
Worcestershire sauce. Mix we'll. and stir for
fifteen minutes. Add glass of porter and
teaspoonful of ice cream; heat over a slow fire;
and you will have something. heaven only knows
what. The chances are IL will be just as good
as lots of things you find Analysed In a cookery
book. But then suppose YOU must have some
vague idea about the succulent parts of ami
mails when you go to buy meat. and the young
housewife had very vague ideas indeed She
argued that a butcher should be able 10 give all
the necessary Information, not only as to the
meat. but what to do with IL, il no wanted peo-
pies custom. She did not propose to tax him
too far. She knew what she wanted, but she
did not know how to cook 1t. She went into
the butchers place.
What can do for you to-day, Mrs. - ~
said the polite butcher, smiling, as he chopped
a lot of ribs of some defunct animal, which
may, heaven knows, have had aspirations and
ambitions, hopes and fears and all sorts of
things in its days OF life.

Even for that the butcher was equal to the
occasion. lie sent her a nice roast OF beef with

THANKSGIVING Dav.

Thanksgiving day is n national holiday
and is quite generally Observed throughout
the country. 1t is the day for big dinner
and, in the New England states, for family
gatherings. The family feature of the OBJ
servance is a good one, and doubtless in the
course of time it will extend beyond New
England.
There is another feature of it that is be-
coming more generally recognized. 1t is to
provide the very poor with some of the
good things which the rich have in such
abundance. There is no better sauce for a
Thanksgiving dinner than the knowledge of
having done something to bring comfort
and happiness into the homes of those who
are scantily provided with this worlds
goods.
If every well-to-do family were to take
the trouble to find out if there were not one
or more families III their immediate vicinity
who, without assistance, would be without
a dinner suitable to the day, and furns
such families with the means of satisfying
their wants in this respect, there would be
much more happiness on Thanksgiving day
than there is. There is as much, if not
more, pleasure in giving than in receiving,
and that which is given in charity is seldom
missed
The plan of having union religious serv-
ices on Thanksgiving day is a good one
1t brings the people of different congrega-
tons together, and generally with good re-
suits. 1t makes them more charitable
toward each other, and opens ways in which
they can be helpful to one another as well
as to those who have claims upon their
bounty. The people of this country have
many things to be thankful for, and the
more fully they realize this the more con-
tented and happy they will be.

Senator Butler, of South Carolina, has
been twice elected to the Senate, and the

his successor, The Washington correspond
ent of the Baltimore Sun says: "Up to

that he would have no opposition, as he is
generally regarded as one of the most
valuable Of the members of congress sent to

he will be opposed by Judge w. r. Wallace.
member OF the circuit court, who has long
cherished a desire to come to the Senate,
and who is said to have considerable fol-
lowing in the legislature, and also the sup
port of Attorney General Earl, who is not
regarded as friendly to Gen. Butler" The
senator's friends assert that he will be re-
elected, and no doubt they are right. He
has made an excellent senator, and the man
ner in which he fioored some of the smartest
republican members on several occasions
was very neat indeed.

A Thanksgiving Dish.

From Good Housekeeping.
Piled high with earnest words of praise,
With noble deeds and charities.
And crowded full of gentle love
For home and friends, our God above,
And all his creatures here below
The homeless ones where'er they go.
A dish well filed with mirth and joy.
With sweetest songs-the symphony
or fervent hearts and open hands,
OF hearts enthralled with golden bands.
And may this happy festaI dish
Be on thy board. This is my wish.
