The Falligant Ordinance.

There will be found in another column a
very sensible communication from Alder
man Falligant in regard to tho purposes of
the ordinance introduced by him to repeal
certain sections of the ordinance in relation
to privy vaults and sewer connections. It
is worthy of the careful consideration of
city council and people. Every house
owner in this city, who has had to make
sewer connections with existing sewers,
knows that it is not only expensive,
but to a great degree useless. In
some instances a half dozsn private
sewer pipes are laid in one street
or lane aud il one of them gets choked up,
or out of order, there is a great risk that
in repairing it the other sewers or drain
age pipes will be displaced and made use
less. Deaths have been caused in families
where the owners of the property have
used the utmost care to have good sewer
age, but where their efforts have been
abortive because of the damage done when
other sewers have been put down or re-
paired. OF this damage they knew nothing
until the sickness or death of some loved
one prompted an invest cation.
1t will be some years before perfect sys-
tenn Of sanitary drainage will be inaugu-
rated in this city, if such is ever inaugu-
rated, and in the mean while why cannot q
system be begun by putting in large
drain pipes in those sections of the city
where such work can be done and where
the drain pipes can be made part of gen.
eral system that may be hereafter estab-
lishedl 1t appears as if practical common
sense applied to the subject would enable
tho board of aldermen to devise a plan by
which thousands of dollars could be saved
to the people and the health of the city pro
tected

A clearinghouse Incident.
From the Nem York World.

There was chicken for dianer at Harlem
clearinghouse, and instead of being satisfied
to take any of it that was offered there was a
general request all around the board for white
meat" Several boarders sent back their plates
to have their piece of dark meat exchanged for
white. The landlady was herself master OF
ceremonies in the kitchen that day. she stood
this racket as long as possible and then burst
into the dining room ike cyclon4 fresh and
furious from the west. Glaring at the boarders
she exclaimed:
See here, you loafers. what do you mean by
all sending out for white meat? Do you imagine
a chicken is made of white meat? Couldn't eat
a piece of the dark meat, | suppose? On, no:
you have been eating nothing but white meat
all your lives, and that's the reason you are all
white-livered, reckon
She seemed to yell up as her awful indigna-
tion grew upon her, and moving closer to the
table she swayed above it like giant oak in a
storm This time she fairly screamed:
"Confound your impudent carcasess, I'll have
you know that | am not so particular about
color. Take the color of your money for IN
stance. I'd like to see some of it, and I'd AXE
it most mighty darn quick be it red, white, blue
or speckled. Now, I'M goin' to send that chicken
back here, and any of you dudes that don't like
the dark meat can take 1t out to kalsom ner
and get it whitewashed."
Gentlemen. " said one of the boarders. when
the lady had retired to the Kitchen I'VE have
trodden on the tail of a tempest. For one |
prefer dark meat on my plate to having it dis
tributed around under my eyes"
And the rest of che boarders, did. too.

Repeal the Bad Laws.

1t is said that the wisest legislation that
has been done in the pas seyenty-five years
was the repeating Of bad laws. 1t would
be well for the members of the Georgia leg
stature to legislate in that direction. Dem h
gogues have fillei the statute books Of the
state with unwise laws. Ia taeir preten led
efforts to protect the people. they have en-
acted laws which are Injurious to their
Interests. In endeavOring TO legislate
against monopolies, they have in reality
strengthened them. The law requiring in
surance companies to make deposit before
they can do business in the state has given
to certain COMPANIES a monopoly, and the
result is that every insurer pays an extra
tax for insurance, the most of which is
taken out Of the state. Repeal this law,
aud let every insurance company which
wishes to do business in the state do So
Another law for which the farmer pays a
heavy tax annually is that requiring the
inspection Of fertilizers The farmer pays
50 cents tom 1t is possible that he thinks
the. fertilizer manufacturers pay it. but
they do not; they simply advance the
money and let the farmer foot the bill. Is
this inspection worth what it costs the
farmers of Georgia! Repeal this law aud
let buys Of guano do az they do with
other purchases-trade with men whom
they can trust
Tue legislature IS now engaged i'll trying
to pass a law 20 allow equities to tax rail
roads. This is another movement to pro-
tect monopolies. Let such a law be passed,
and there will not be many more railroads
built in Georgia, and the present big cor
porations will have everything their own
way.
The best service the legislature of Georgia
could do the people would be to devote
nearly the entire session to repeating bad
laws Tho entire membership might be di-
vided into subcommittee, and the laas
apportioned among them for revision Or
repeal. 1t would be valuable school to
many Of the members, for they
would learn something about the
laws of their state The psople
would be astonlshed at the amount Of legal
rubbish such subcommittee would present
for repeal. 1t would be legislature that
would be as famous as the Rump parlia
ment.
Before attempting this wholesale job,
however, the legislature might try its hand
at repeating the Insurance Companies De-
post Law and the Tax on Fertilizers. Many
thousands of dollars would be saved an
nually to the people by the repeal Of those
indirect taxes, which do the people harm
by taking money out of their pockets and
putting none in the state treasury.

The jenkins of the Associated Press,
speaking of how the President spent last
Sunday at Deer Park, said: There was no
church service, and he spent the morning
taking last walk with Benjamin Mckee"
Now, who in thunder is Benjamin Mckee?
The American public has never heard of
him before-uever. When the Jenkinses
of the press inform us that the President
has taken a walk with Benjamin Mckee,
they should also tell us s6methlng about
Benjamin Mckee, and they shouldn't
neglect to state what Office he is after.
Does he want to be pension commissioner!
We insist upon knowing all about Benjamin
Mckee. All! we remember now-he is the
youngster about whom so many idiotic
things have been said because he was the
Presidents grandson.

And that man he is fool, who.

Thinks that he's too high aud mighty

cigarette smoking seriously affects the

Sunday Crimes.

The shooting of Gathers last Sunday
morning was the indirect result of the SELL
ing of whisky on Sunday. 1t is a refec-
tion upon every alderman Of the city, as
well as upon the mayor, that such state of
affairs exists. The good government of the
city is in their hands, and the respectable
citizens Of Savan an expect each one of
them to use his influence to preserve the
pe1ce of the city. They should see to it
that the police do their duty by arresting
offenders against the laws of the city and
state. If the sellers # liquor on Sunday
were made to understand that the laws are
to be rigidly enforced, it would require but
few arrests to stop the Sunday traffic. 1t
is shame that the keepers of grog-shops
should be allowed to violate the laws with
lmpunity, and thus to encourage crime.
Sunday drunkenness is on the increase in
the city, and with the large population OF
white and black loafers, it Is liable at any
time to result in trouble. There has not been
serious disturbance in this city except on
such days when the people were idle, and
when the grog-shops were open in violation
of the law. The solicitor general, who is
not beholden to local politicl II influence for
his office, has an excellent opportunity to
bring some of these Offenders to Justice.
