JACKSONVILLE, Fla, August 19.-Foul
yellow fever cases were taken to the

fran the infected parts of Florida to
other points in tie South. A telegram
received from DR.. Guiteras at Jackson

evening two cases have been found in the
outskirts Of the town. One can be con-
nected with the original focus. Three
other cases were discovered to-day, max
ing total of five new cases. We are
beginning to lose connection with the
original focus. The importance of isola-
ton is evidently diminishing. Injected
localities nave been closed up, and meas

THE Chattanooga Tradesman, al
ludmg to the fact that its first num-
Der was issued Ten years ago, says
that during that period the history
of the South has been one unvarying
tale of progress and growth, yet at
no time since the industrial develop
Inent commenced to manifest itself
has the growth been so substantial
and so significant as it is today.
Two years ago, in consequence of the
planting of new industries and the
recognition of the boundless resources
of the Southern States, land values
rose with great rapidity and a specu-
lative land craze seized this section,
which was damaging in its effects
and temporarily produced embarrass-
ment, but this has now been entirely
relieved and the South is now start
ing on another bound forward, the
second in this decade, which is of a
more lasting character and sets
at rest forever all doubts that
this is destined to be the
greatest manufacturing center on
this continent. Within the past few
weeks gigantic new enterprises have
been launched in different quarters of
the South which means the influx of
many millions more of Eastern CAPT
tai and mammoth plans are now be
ing developed which will expand the
industrial Importance of the South in
every direction. Chattanooga, An
nlston, Augusta, Columbus, Birming-
ham, Sheffield, Bessemer, Atlanta
Nashville, Memphis, Knoxville,
Lynchburg, Little Rock, Dallas,
New Orleans, in fact every Southern
town and city of any Importance or
witt any r sources is feeling The

Nor many years hence, If the
Standard Oil Company continues tC
reach out as it has been doing Of
late, the country viii be covered
with perfect network of pipes. A
few months ago it accomplished the
wonderful feat of pumping oil
through pipe from Lima to Chic
ago. So successfully has this under
taking proven that its managers feel
confident of the success in a much
more elaborate scheme. 1t is in
tended now to build a pipe line
from the Ohio oil fields to st. Louis,
and make the latter place the Com
pany's distributing point for the
South and Southwest. This accom-
plished, petroleum will be next
forced across the Rocky mountains
in pipes. The effect of this mode of
transporting oil will be to lower the
price at points remote from the oil
fields. AS it is now, in many parts
of the country, the freight on
petroleum is much greater than the
cost of the article in the refined state
at the refinery,

The Abstention Policy.

The following dispatch from
Evansville, Ind, of Monday, shows
what is being done about the tobacco
trade: "There is but little better
tone to the tobacco market than one
week ago, when the common grades
had declined to almost nothing and
were begging for purchasers at 81.
The activity among the planters to
induce less planting gives out little
hope that prices will witness a slight
advance during the coming week.
A regular campaign with public
speakers has been opened throughout
the tobacco section of Kentucky by
the advocates of the abstinence plan,
and these orators have been visiting
all of the leading tobacco centers,
earnestly urging upon the farmers the
absolute necessity OF lessening the
production, to reclaim the collapsed
market and save themselves from
bankruptcy. Just now this plan is
meeting with great favor, and as it is
also supported by nearly all of the
spectators, there is prospect of its
being successful and an ironclad
agreement formulated and signed.
1t is recognized as the only redemp-
tion for the planter, and for that
reason gains in strength every day.

THE oldest man employed in the
Government departments in Wash
ington is also one of the happiest.
Professor John w. Scott, now with
in few months of ninety years, is
the father of Mrs. Benjamin Harri-
son, and expects to live until his
daughter has assumed her position
as the first lady of the land. The old
gentleman works every day in the
pension Office, where his duties are
the distribution of the mail for one of
the divisions of the big bureau. In
the Office he is a general favorite, and
there are many willing hands to
tighten his labOrs whenever he is
hard pressed. But the old gentle
man is phenonenally active and
strong, and has little difficulty in
getting through his daily task. Pro
fessor Scott's beard and hair are as
white as the driven snow, but he is
not bald, his eye isbright and quick,
his hearing almost perfect and his
hands are nimble. He ecorns to
use the elevator in going up and
down stairs. He lives with IA mar
ried daughter and his grand daughter
in comfortable lodging on Twelfth
street.

OLEvELAND's PLURALITY.

Cleveland has plurality of 49,, 00(
in the popular vote as shown at the
election last November. In 1884 his
plurality was only $4,000. Thus il
grows palmer every day that he was
defeated by the use Of money in par
ticular localities. His attitude on
the tariff question made him friends
and strengthened him in regard OF
the people. The cause for which he
stood, and stands is winning one,
as the votes Of the people prove. We
have only to pick our hints and try it
again. The public then heard the
open confession of many prominent
Eastern Republicans that enormous
sums were placed in the hands of
Chairman Quay for use in affecting
the voters, and it sees Dudley, the
Treasurer hiding out Of Indiana while
Grand Jury Of the Federal
Court deliberates as to his
Indictment. In view of all these
things does it become Democrat to
be discouraged or to grow faint heart
ed? Surely not. The cause has only
failed because of the intervention of
The electoral college. The cause has
only failed because Of the interven-
tion eff the electoral college. The
people have Endorsed the President
and the platform upon which he
stood. They are for him as they
were for Tilden in 1876. In the light
of the returns, there is the brightest
promise of triumph in 1892. The
Democratic party has been beaten be-
fore by the Electoral College, but
from Lincoln's day to this the quad
riennial voting successfully demon
strates that it's ranks never diminish
in numbers. There were more
Democrats at the last election than
the election before. This is the Gu
rious history Of the party. And 50 it
will ever be, because the Democratic
party is the party Of the people, and
the cause to which it is now pledged
is the peoples cause.

THE latest reports from the Bir-
mingham riots, show that ten men
were killed and fifteen were seriously
wounded, four of whom will proba-
bly, die. 1t is one of the most unfor-
tunate affairs in the history of the
country, and only demonstrates the
fact that human life is getting to be
too cheap. Murders, assassinations
and wholesale killings are getting to
be the order of the day, and it will
become so finally that man will
never know when he is safe. 1t is q
deep and crying evil, for which there
should be a speedy remedy.

THE McMinnville Standard thin

THE McMinnville Standard thinks
the so called primary elections held
in the interest of Harris and Atkins
were farcical things. The Standard
endorses the statement expressed by
the Smithville News, to the effect
that this extraordinary primary bust
ness, run by partisans, making re-
turns without oath or legal obliga-
ton, "has no status in the constitu-
ton, in law or precedent; and nine
times out of ten will result in a
stupendous fraud that should bind
no honorable member of the general
assembly, except to vote against it,
and treat it as fraud"

THE Louisville Times makes O SEN
sible suggestion, as follows: eve
strongly advise Democrats not to
sign the petitions of Republicans for
positions which the Democrats now
hold. Gen. Harrison has pledged
himself to Civil Service Reform, in
its letter and spirit. No doubt he
will violate this pledge, but there is
no reason why we should smooth the
way for him, and enable him to say
that he makes changes in obedience
to the general wish of the community
without distinction of party. 1t
would be far better for Democrats to
send remOnstrances against a change,
and let the removal appear, as it
really will be, for party reasons only.
