Nc Iver, of Liberty county, has madequi
a number of speeches during the present
session of the legislature. He seems to en-
joy speaking, and the other members enjoy
listening to his quaint remarks His last
speech was upon the bill to appropriate
$4,000 to Morris Brown college, instead of
the Atlanta university. Among other
things, he said that his race needed educa-
ton, and that he hopei the 900 would be
appropriated to Morris Brown college
Strengthening himself up. and looking at
the speaker, he said: "In regari to this
money, have no fears, sir, but that it will
be used in such way, sir, as it will be to
the best use of my race, sir, according to the
laws of this state enacted. We don't want
nothing, sir, inconsistent with the rules and
regularity. We want everything done by
so magnificent a legislature, sir, in a mag
nifcent way, sir. Anything irregular, sir,
we can't abide. We want Things according
to the rules and dictates of this House, The
bill passed the House, with only tea dissent
ing votes.

Disappointed Spectators.

There is a great deal Of growing among
those who hold cotton seed oil certificates
at the showing which the cotton seed oil
trust made a few days ago. and the mental
condition of those who had these certificates
on margins, and were compelled to let 60
Of them at heavy loss, is rather difficult
to describe. However, tbs general public
has no particular reason for sympa-
thizing with them. About all of
them are spectators, who bought
certificates with the hope Of unloading
them upon somebody else at a big profit.
They knew that there was great deal of
water in the certificates, but relying
upon the rosy colored reports which the
managers of the trust made from time to
time, they took the chances of getting rid
Of their holdings at prices which would pay
them handsomely before it became ap-
parent that the business of the trust
wouldn't pay much Of dividend.
Weeks ago it was permitted to be under
stood that the net earnings of the trust for
the year would approximate s.. SOC, 900.
When the report was made it appeared that
only 100000 had been earned. Those who
bought the certificates when they under
stood that big dividend would be paid
couldn't get rid of them fast enough when
they discovered what the earnings actually
were. Of course the price Of the certif-
Gates dropped pretty fast-so fast in fact
that the number Of those who left good
deal of money in Wall street was large.
OF course there were many angry in
quiries as to why the reports given out
weeks ago we're SO different from the one
which showed the real condition of affairs
The answer was that the managers of the
trust had made a mistake. They thought
that they were going to make the sum
which was first mentioned as the trusts
probable earnings for the year.
II seems that they undertook to
keep up the price Of cotton seed products
by buying tie output of rival cotton seed
mills. The rival mills got good prices, but
the trust did not The trust managers had
to sell their immense stock at what they
could got, and in that way about 81 ,000, 900
was sunk.
1t is somewhat remarkable that so many
business enterprises are wrecked by bad
managers of such enterprises who lack the
business ability demanded by their posi-
tions Personal influence, friendship, or
the possession Of wealth, instead of fitness,
controls the choice of them. 1t may be
that almost any man would have
made the mistake the managers of
Cotton Seed Oil Trust did, but it
is certain that those who lost money
on cotton oil certificates do not think so.
Perhaps the greatest mistake was made
when the trust was formed. The mistake
was in issuing so many millions of dollars
of certificates in excess of the real value of
the property which the trust owned. This
was mistake, of course, if viewed from
the standpoint of legitimate business, not
from that of wild cat speculation.

Yesterdays Elections.

Our dispatches, up to o'clock this morn
ing, indicate that the democrats made very
considerable gaias in the elections yester-
day. The returns in Virginia are very
favorable to them. and they claim the
state by a majority Of from 5000 TO
21O00. Further returns may reduce
this estimate somewhat, but there
does not seem TO be any reason to doubt at
this hour that Malone and the balance OF
the republican ticket have been overwhelm-
ingly defeated. There will be great re-
joicing in Virginia, and, in fact, through
out the south, if such proves to be the case.
In Richmond it is believed that the demo-
Gratis have carried the state by a majority
of &C, 200.
The democrats appear to have been vic
tori Gus in both New York and New jersey.
The SUMS estimates in New York elections
are generally pretty correct, and that
journal says that the democratic majority
in that state will not be far from
10000. 1t seems TO be conceded
that Tammany has carried the city of New
York by a majority of at least Is, 00O New
Jersey appears to have retained her place
in the democratic column, the returns
pointing to the election of Leon Albeit for
governor and democratic legislature.
In Ohio the democrats have made gains
in comparison with the vote of last year,
but the returns are not full enough to
justify an opinion as to whether they have
won either the governorship or the. legisla-
ture. Hamilton county-the county in
which Cincinnati Is situated-is claimed by
the democrats by good majority.
OF course Mississippi has elected the
democratic ticket, and doubtless Maryland
has. 1t is also safe to say that the demo-
Gratis have made considerable gains in Mas
sachusetts. The other states in which cleo
tons were held, viz. Iowa, Nebraska and
Pennsylvania, have no doubt gone repub-
lican, but it is by no means certain that
they have given their usual of year repub-
lican maiorities

Lady Brabazon, of England, attended
Bethany Sunday school. In Philadelphia.
last Sunday, and talked to the infant class
One of the Philadelphia newspapers, com
menting upon this, says: although the
speaker is high in the grade of earth's
aristocracy, the plain, everyday, matter-of-
fact, middle-class children were as self
possessed as if street missionary had
dropped in upon them" and it attempts to
explain this by the statement that the
children "were in the charch of the Post
master General, and the presence of an
English lady Of birth interested them for
only what she had to say" This is a very
awkward attempt to please Mr. Wana-
maker. Nobody expects the members of an
infant class to slop over because a lady of
'anE addresses them.

The New York Herald remarks that
Chicago is demanding the worlds fair of
1892 with an $1,000 900 voice. New York
is demanding it with a 81, 900, 600 voice, and
it stands to reason that the voice of Chicago
is the more powerful. If Now York gets
the fair, she will probably have to call
louder.

Remarkably Low Wages.


FTo1n uIe Pittsburg Dispatch (Rep).
We are interested. to observe that our es-
teemed contemporary, the Chicago Inter ocean.
In discussing the relative wages of bookkeepers
in England and America declares that salaries
in the old country ''are far more than 200 DER
cent. lower" This is alarming. AS the sub
traction OF 100 per cent. from anything leaves
exactly nothing. the statement of the Inter
Ocean points to the dread conclusion that
British bookkeepers are living on the starvation
wages OF over 100 per cent. less than nothing.
