Judge Albion w. Tourgee is still writing
about the south. lie said lately: The
south is on tie upgrade not because her
people believe in progress and are willing
to get behind and push, but because the
world is moving aud 10 matter how heav-
lily it hangs back in the breecaiug the south
must move too. The progress Of the south
morally, intellectually aud materially, is
very largely the result Of more friction
with northern enterprise, aspiration and
sympathy. Northern capital, northern
brain, and very often northern Lrawu, have
fought their why through the crust Of
southern life. and made uuaccustomed stir
among its particles which seems phen3me-
nal 10 its people" 1t is true that tie south
is on the upgrade, but it is not true that
southern people do not believe in progress
aud are unwilling to get behind and push.
Some of the northern people who have
come south are progressive and energetic,
and have helped to build up this section,
but in every line Of business they are
brought into competition with enterprising
wide-awake and industrious southern people.
Some Of tho energetic and shrewd business
men of New York find their most success
full rivals among the southern men on Wall
street.

A Big Problem.
From the Neg York Herald (Inl

From me NetU York Herald Ind)
There is no more important problem on the
carpet than that which the race question of the
south presents. 1t is not a matter in which the
south alone is interested for we are one people,
and what hurts Georgia s felt in Massachusetts.
Seven millions of ignorant folk with the political
rights Of citizens, and holding, if shrewdly ma
nipulated, the balance of power, are an immense
ioai to carry. What TO do with them, TO them
and for them during the next twenty years is
the great puzzle Of the time. The south as
whole deserved infinite credit for its endeavor
TO shape their destiny, and every rght- minded
man will give it that credit ungrudgln4ly.

Mr.. Richard S. Barnes, writing to the
New York Tribune, objects to the electric
sugar refining process and the Ke ly motor
being classed as parallel humbugs. Mr..
Barnes must hold big amount Of stock in
the Keely Motor Company, for he says that
if anyone will prove that the motor is a
humbug, he will give 800 to charity and
will use his certificates of stock TO paper his
walls. The value Of any invention or dis
covery is measured by the results it effects.
Accordingly both Friends and Keey's in
ventions are humbugs, for the sugar refn-
ing machine failed to refine and the Keely
motor failed TO mote.

The Rev. DR.. Burchard is reported to be
aging very rapidly, and one Of his intimate
friends is reported to have said that he still
feels the disgrace be brought upon himself
four years ago. What disgrace did Or.
Burchard bring upon himself four years
ago9 If, by his rum, Romanism and re-
beilion" speech, he succeeded in defeating
Mr.. Blaine, he did something greatly to his
credit. His intimate frlendn seems TO
belong to the class Of men who think Mr..
Blaine is the greatest living statesman.
That opinion, however, is not shared very
generally by the public.

The Micro coSm SAYS that MIR. Keely of
Motor fame has explained TO admi ing
friends the theory upon which his motor
is constructed. He pointed out to them
why it is that it requires triplet serie,
of 432 octaves of tuning forks to coincide
with the persuasive conjunction of all the
vibrators in his liberating process at one
time, in order to disassoclate the three
orders Of harmonic ftths from the double
octave negati2er which is so essential in
maintaining the equilibrium of the mass
chords Mr.. Keey told them, however,
"that should tie minor thirds Of the scale Of
q degrees in g major chance to secure
continuity with the transmitting rad lators
an explosion Of the entire lberator would
no doubt be the disastrous result OF course
it would, and Mr. Keely is wise in not per-
uniting public exhibition Of his motor
until lie is thoroughly satisfied that his
lberstor is strong enough to staud the
strain which such an accident as he points
out might put upon 1t. 1t IS better that
the company should wait awhile than that
the lioerator should burst. isn't it.

The Rain.

We knew it would rain, for all the morn
spirit on slender robes of mist
Was lowering its golden buckets down
Into the vapOry amethyst

Scoopng the dew that lay in the flowers
Dipping the Jewels out Of the sea.
To sprinkle them over the lane in showers
We knew 1t would rain, for the poplars showed
The white Of their leaves, the amber grain
Shrunk in the wind, aud the lightning now
Is tangled in tremulous skeins of rain.

Gov. Foraker and the White Caps.

Gov Foraker and the White Caps.
Is Gov. Foraker, Of Ohio, really losing his
mind? 1t was rumored few weeks ago t at
he was, but the rumor was thought to have
been circulated by an enemy in his own
party for the purpose Of retail ating for hav-
ing been discharged from an honorary
office The governors course with regard
10 The White Caps in Ohio, however, might
cause some people to suspect that the rumor
was not altogether baseless.
Several weeks ago Gov. Foraker an
nourced by proclamation that the " bite
Caps in that state had disbanded, and that
the people would not be troubled by them
again. Following this statement was
another that in case they al not di>banded
and should continue to commit lawlcss acts,
means had been provided to secure their
arrest Only a few days later the White
Caps resumed their law!ess conduct, and
they have keptit up at Intervals ever since,
and no arrests have Leen made
The ether day, in the message to the leg
islature, the governor repeated that the
White Caps had disbanded, and that there
would be 10 more "Nhippings, raids or
threatenings" He was little embarrassed
by the fact that since his proclamation
there had been both threats and whlppngs.
but he got arould that with his usual
agility, by asserting that in almost every
instance they were by practical j'kars or by
persons acting upon their individual re-
sponsility.
@These statements, taken together, seem to
indicate that the governors mind Is some
what confused. What are the stat IN, hts T?
First, that The White Caps had perma-
commit no more unlawful acts; third, that
prhaps they had not disbanded, and that
they would continue their lawlessness;
fourth, repetition Of the first; fifth 4;
that some of the acts committed
since the first announcement of their dis
bandment were b. iokers, or by individ-
uals acting on their own responsibility, but
that enough had been done to show that
the White Caps wore still organized ard at
work. Some Of these statements are in
ferred, of course, but the differences are
justifable.
If Gov. Foraker wants to do something
practical in connection with the White
Caps and at the same time prove that bis
mind is unimpaired, let him quit disbond-
ing That lawless organization on paper, and
cause the arrest and punishment Of the
ringeaders of it. The course he has pur-
sued lately is causing great satisfaction
among his enemies.

The attempt to fix the authorship of the
phrase Public Office is public trust" has
caused the statement TO be made that Mr..
Cleveland never ed it. The New York
Times says Col. Lamont is responsible for
its resurrection. During 1884, it says,
campaign pamphlet was issued by the
Albany democrats, and Col. Lamont was
requested to fill out the title page. The
colonel wanted a text-line that would
attract attention, and at the same time be
characteristic of TIE contents of the pam
phlet, and he selected tle now famous
phrase, saying he thought it would ''go."
1t did go" chiefly because Mr.. Cleveland's
political record had given peculiar signif-
canoe to it. 1t was very natural mistake
on the part Of the public to suppose that the
phrase originated with Mr.. Cleveland.

Speaking of Mr.. c. A. Alexander's new

Post says; Probably the evolutionis's will
mako much OF it, and tell us how. in the
natural course OF things, even without the
intervention Of man, the five-fingered cot
ton plant, having once secured lcdgment on
the earth, would inevitably supersede the
old variety. As it would get more sun
shine, less mldew. and fewer caterpillars,
it would be better armed and equipped in
the struggle for existence Being the fitteSt,
it would survive. If anybody asks how
the variation came about, the question can
not be answe; ed We only know that vari-
atoms are occurring all the time. and that
the profitable cnes, that is, those profitable
to the plant or animal in the struggle for
Existence. are preserved. They are pre-
served by man when no observes them, as

The Chinese minister at Washington has

planned Of having headache, whereupon
Miss Bayard invited him 70 scat on a com
Portable sofa whore he might be quiet for a
short while. The minister at once sank
down among the cushions, crossed one leg
over the other aud clasped his left foot in
his hands. Then he fell asleep, which was
a little more than the hostess had calculated
upon, aud she took the liberty Of arousing
him before his shores became loud enough
to be heard throughout the rooms, and Of
bundling him off to his carriage. The min
lister probably had fallen victim TO the
American habit Of being too convivial at
times. he should suggest to his government
that it send few missionaries 20 this
country.
