Substantial Boomers.

The organization of Commercial
Clubs throughout the State is pro-
ceeding very rapidly with the prob
ability that before spring every en-
terpr.sing town in Kentucky will
have its representative body of bus
mess men to take an interest in the
development of new enterprises.
These organizations are prelimina-
ry to forming etrong State League,
and it is highly probabse that the
first important business taken up
by the consolidated body win be
the perfecting Of a plan for induc-
ing immigration to the State.

Kentucky has been slow in some
particulars, but she is quickening
her pace. Her people are becom-
ing fairly awake, and are bending
their energies to develop the many
and varied resources of the State.
Railroads are spreading their iron
arms into the mountains where
coal and lumber ABOUND, and the
waste places will be made to yield
rich rsturns. Central kentucky is
not behind in the march of deyel-
opment and progress. Commercial
Clubs are being organized, and
there is unusual activity in the Blne
Grass section. There is no longer
need for any Kentuckian, who
wants to work to go to Kansas or
and other new State. There is no
longer a need for young men OF
pluck aud energy, who want to bet
ter their fortunes to leave Kentucky.
There is work to do at home, and
fortune, too, for tie worker, fprop-
er diligence, enterprise and energy
is used. The grand old Common
wealth is entering upon q new era.

De. Rlalne.s Aeent PROVOKED.

II Mr.. Curtis, who is in charge of the AL
Americas excursion, wants TO please his
chief, Mr.. BlaiDe, he should request the
delegates to put their fingers in their ears
when anybody attempts to tell them that
freer trade is what is needed to bring North,
Central aud South America into closer
commercial relations. Mr. Curtis an
nounces that he is provoked be
cause Mr.. Wiman, who entertained the
delegates at dinner az the Clifton house +,
Canada, last Sunday, delivered an interest
ing little speech, in which he succeeded in
making it quite clear that a high protect
i've tariff was not just what was needed to
promote the best interests of the countries
OF America. Mr.. Blaine does not want the
delegates To hear such talk, and the infer
ence f. ON Mr.. Curtis remarks is that the
latter has instructions not to let them go
where they will likely hear it.
MIR. Curtis says that he accepted Mr.
Wiman's invitatio for the delegates on
condition that there should be no speech
making particularly speechmaking of a
formal character. Mr.. Wiman says he
doesn't think there was anything very
formal ABOUT his dinner, or the speeches
which were made at it, and it is probable
that Mr.. Curtis would not have thought so
either had not Mr.. Wiman pointed out some
very strong objections to high protective
tariff
Was it because Mr.. Blaine was afraid
that the delegates would hear too much
against the tariff doctrine of the Repub-
lican party that he arranged their tour SO
as to keep them out of the southl Ths
Wilma episode would seem to indicate as
much. Mr.. Blaine IS mistaken if he thinks
he can make the delegates believe that this
country is overwhelmingly in favor of
high protective tariff, or that such tariff
is necessary FOR the prosperity of the coun-
tries Of America. They are intelligent and
Observing men, and will get at the truth
Notwithstanding efforts which Mr.. Blaine
may make to prevent them.

To Keep the Letters Dry.


Pat" Sheedy, the Adonis of the sporting fra
ternity, was standing on the steps of the Gilsey
house last night. The last time saw the pro-
moter of pugilistic enterprises was at Toledo,
o., where ne fell victim to the ignorance of q
stupid Dutchman, whom he had dispatched on
an errand. Pat" with Champion Sullivan
and coterie of friends, visiting a retired
boxer named Billy Tate who managed pub
lie house in Toledo. Having some Important
letters that he had forgotten to mail, Sheedy
asked Tate to obiige him by sending them to
the pOstoffice by his Dutch waiter. Tate imme-
diately called the waiter, who understood very
little English, and giving him Sheedys letters
told MIN to deposit them in the postoffice at
once. When the waiter, with letters in hand,
opened the door, Sheedy saw that the rain was
pouring down in torrents and calling him back
handed him his SIS silk umbrella, saying:
"Dutchy, take this, too, so that the letters
won't get wet"
The Dutchman took the gold -headed umbrella
and started. In about ten minutes he returned
to Tate's house, wringing wet and minus the
fine umbrella.
"Dutchy, where's my umbrella?" asked
Sheedy.
Gone NIT der ledders, so dot dey don't god
vet," answered the innocent Dutchman, as he
wondered what Sheedy's friends were laughing
at. SIeeiy called at the poStoffice at once, and
found tho he Dutchnan had dropped letters
and III a into the newspaper box.

GOV. Hill's Recention.

Gov. Hill was given very warm vel
come in Atlanta-such a welcome, indeed,
as made him feel that he was almost as
well known in the empire state of the south
as in the empire state of the north Geor-
gians have watched him as he has advanced
from one public position to another, ana
have seen great deal in his career to
admire.
There is no doubt anywhere in the couu-
try, particularly in the south, that he is a
democrat Of the broad gauge kind, and that
while he is an ambitious man, his chief de-
sire is to promote the best interests of the
country; and he believes that that can be
done more surely by putting the democratic
party in power than in any other way.
Gov. Hill is good friend of the south,
and he never misses an opportunity for
speaking good word for her. When the
delegates to the All-Americas congress
called on him at Albany he told them that
he hoped their tour included the
south, and that they must not
think of returning to their homes until they
had visited the southern states and wit
messed their marvellous industrial develop
ment. He told them that the south was no
longer wholly devoted to agriculture, but
wastrapidly becoming formidable rival of
the north in tie number and excellence and
diversifcation of her industries. The
warmth of his welcome in Georgias capital
coHv1nces him, doubtless, that his friendship
for the south is appreciated.

The Huskine of the Corn.

The golden days Of summertime have swiftly
glided by,
And autumn subtle witchery is changing earth
and sky.
The leaves have lost the emerald green they
wore in vernal days,
The frost is kissing forest boughs into scarlet
blaze.
The grapes are purpling in the sun upon the
woodland vine,
The airs invigorating as draught of rich, red
wine.
The earth is fair as clover fields bedecked with
dew at morn,
And autumn welcomes with smile the husking
of the corn.
My mind goes back to other days, and better, if
you Please,
When boys and girls were wont to meet at jolly
huskng bees
Girls who, it really seems to me, were hand
somer by far
Than ali the artificial ones the tailors make us
are.
Those were delightful evenings when we mixed
our toll with bliss,
For every red ear which we found secured the
cherished kiss.
1t isn't strange that now feel so lonesome and
forlorn,
Since all my friends are absent at the husking
of the corn.

A very unlikely story is told concerning
the speech which Gov. Hill made in At

Mr.. Randall asked to be allowed to read the
speech. Gov. Hill handed him the manu-
script, and the Pennsylvania congressman
read it through, making such erasures as
he saw fit, and handing it back with the re-
mark that, as changed, it was very good
speech. The governor is said to have prom

Somehow or other the northern republican
press has tried to make sort of southern
outrage" out of the recent riot at Navassa,
West Indian island. The other day they
printed an alleged statement by colored
man named Davenport that the riot was
caused BY cruel treatment of colored people
ON the part of white overseers, and they
said that the case reminded them of alleged
ones in the south. Davenport denies that
he made any such statement The repub-

Pittsburg, Pa, ard st. Paul, Mimi, de-

time ago Pittsburg built a very handsome
court house, and the cost of it was kept
within the appropriation. A few days ago
a new court house was finished in St. Paul
The intention was that it should cost not
more than 100000, and the actual cost
was $990,0S9 81. These cities should be-
ranked with Georgia in the matter Of
honesty in erecting public buildings.
