PRESENTATION OF THE MONUMENT.
After congratulations to the speaker,
Capt. John Flannery, President of the JAS
per Monumental Association, came forward
and said:
Mr. MayOr:-It now becomes my duty, as
President of the Jasper Monumental Associa-
ton. to turn over to the care and protection of
the CITY of savannah, through you, as its chief
executive, this memorial in granite and bronze
TO a hero whose name and fame have for so long
period found place in the memories of our
people
As a brief sketch of the history of the associa-
ton which has accomplished this work appears
in the morning paper, Twill not risk firing you
and my other hearers bY repeating IL. MAY |
ask that you will adept the trust, and that our
beloved Forest City Will give the same care to
this beautiful and instructive monument that
mitted To her care and protection.
ACCEPTED BY THE CITY.
In accepting the monument in behalf of
the city Mayor Lester spoke us follows:
CAPT. FIANNERY: The Mayor and Aldermen,
for the citizens of Savannah, accept the trust
your association confides to them, and conf
IDENTIFY do pledge them to the pious care of the
monument your generous efforts have erected,
Its VoiceieSs but potential eloQuence proclams
the story OF that patriotic manhood which so
sgnally achieved the independence of a nation
and secured the blessings of freedom for the
JO,OOO,OOO OF American people who to-day pursue
their individual happiness I'm security and peace.
1t asserts that the spirit of 76 still fingers in
the land and afflrmS that century has not eff
dimmed the lustre Of a patriots name.
Its beauty will richly adorn a city but its
perpetual lesson will address the higher sense;
teaching
." 'riS heart alone
Worth steel and stone
That keeps men free forever"
If the mound at Marathon inspired the Greek
the American citizen, looking upon this memo
rial monument about which must cluster the rec
objections Of that heroic struggle which made
this country "the land of the free, 4" must feel a
higher and better inspiration and the citizen of
Savannah mayhap shall feel a warmer glow
when reminded that in his immediate soil lies
the dust of the true, the brave, the generous
and patriotic William Jasper who fell within
sight of this spot and gave up his life in the
cause of freedom.
At the close of Mayor Testers speech
Capt Flannery proposed three cheers for
Gov. Gordon. They were given with q
hearty good will The dedicatory services
were then ended, the Governor proceeding
to the park extension where he reviewed

Other accounts are contradictory, but the fact re. mains, and it impresses the public both in Germany and elsewhere prob ably more than the reports of the doc tors, that the Prince grows somewhat worse from month to month, and that more formidable operation than the last one IS now talked of.

The opinion of the Supreme Court of the Territory in the case of Came ron H. King vs. Jno, ], Hawkins, Ter ritorial Auditor, has been published in the Pacific Reporter. King Is Com missioner of Immigration and as signed his last quarterly salary, ac- crued on Dec. 3lst, 1887, for $500 to E. H. Hitler. The Auditor refused to draw warrant for the amount when the assigned order was presented, and King petitioned fer writ of mandate in the Supreme Court,
 In his response the Auditor alleges that King, prior to the assignment to Hitler, for valuable consideration sold and assigned an order for the same quarterly salary to one Parish. From the facts presented the Auditor was unable to decide which of these three claimants was entitled to the | $500.
 The Court say that it is against pub- lir poIiey for an efiicer to assign hIs ! salary, and that the Auditor should draw a warrant for salary to no one but the officer himself, and In conciu- sion directs the Auditor to dellyer the warrant to King. The Court also in its opinion refused to consider the pri, yate equities and bona fdes between King, Parish and Hitler. but infer, that t is apparent as a matter of fact from the record that King, prior tc Dec 3Ist, attempted an assignment o his salary, before it becaT, due, tc both Parish and Hitler,
 There was no appropriation made by the last Legislature for the pay ment of the salary of the Commission CT of Immigration, and Hitler anC Parish will wait some tune before Mir King gets his money on his warran from the Treasurer.

The advance in copper has been So we'll sustained and the market SO steady during the past two months that it has had the effect of giving con fidence to the owners of mines long idle to resume work. and the number of producing copper mines will be largely increased by the middle of the the present year
 So many reports are afloat regard ing the doings of the French Syndi- cate that it IS difficult to determine thou truth or falsity, but the Syndi- cate Is certainly master of the situation now. How long it will be able to re- tain control is a question. If, as is asserted, the agreement between the Syndicate and leading Spanish and Amerlcan producers extends over a period of three years, high prices are likely to last for some time, and must result in great prosperity to the cop per industry.
 The outlook for copper mining in Arizona is certainly encouraging. The mines of Clifton and Bisbee are making an increased output the pro duction of Globe District promises te be much larger this year than last, and we learn of the transfer of valua- ble copper properties in several parts of the Territory, with the view to their immediate development. What is most needed for the prosperity of the industry in Arizona is cheaper transportation fer fuel, bullion and supplies; and the enhanced value oi the metal should act as an induce ment to the building of railroads to copper districts remote from raIl com, munication.
 James Lewls & Sons, of Liverpool predict large increase in the con sumption of copper, both in the Uni ted States and Europe during th, current year.

The mode of electing President should be changed so that the popular vote would elect. Adams, in 1924, Van Bursn, in 1886, Polk. in l844. Taylor, in l646, Buchanan, in 1856, and Lhn- coin, in 1860, were elected, though the popular vote was against them, thus showing, under the present system, that the minority governs. Hence tho struggle in States having the largest electoral vote. Tic electoral method is not in harmony with the other parts of our system of govern ment, which aims at simplicity and practical usefulness, and therefore the incongruity of the electoral plan should be dispensed with.
