Let Them Come.

Our dispatches announced the other day
that next year, either before or after the
convention of the Republican National
League in Tennessee, delegations to that
convention from the different states would
unite in a tour of the south in the interest
of the Republican party. 1t is proposed to
visit the chief business centers of the sou b.
such as New Orleans, Savannah, Atlanta,
birmingham and Richmond. The New
York Tribune thinks that there will be
eight train loads of delegates to make the
trip, and it says that no unpleasant memo
ries ill be revived, but that the principles
of the Republican arty will DO presented
In the most attra ctive way by the Speakers
Per APPS this programme will be carried
out and perhaps i; will not 1t is not GER
tain that the repubi ans want to build up
their party in the south, even if they could,
to the extent that the solid south would be
broken. During every national campaiga
t. ey talk about sending stump speakers to
this section, but how many have they ever
sents There is an impression among the
people that the republicans would rather
that t s luth should remain solidlv demo-
atlc. They want to array solid reUubli-
car north against n solid democratic south.
They want to inject sectional issues into the
campaig /, and they could not do so very
effectively if several of the southern states
ould become republican.
IL this remarkable excursion should take
place, however, the delegates would no
doubt enjoy themselves. They might not
make much of an impression politically
upon the southern people. but they would
see good many busy and rapidly grow
ing cities-cities that have pros Dered
under democratic rule tn different south
ern states-ald they would get good look
at the most beautiful and fertile part of
this c)u try. What they would see might
induce them to invest a little capital in
southern enterprises, and they could g
home and tell their neighbors that the
south was the place for steady and industri-
GUS immigrants.

From the san Francisco Argondut.
A Chicago undertaken whom we will call Mr..

sincerely mourus when il becomes his painful

friends or acquaintance. One freezing cold
day last winter young lady whom he well
knew, aud whose family he was much attached

so overcome by her feelings that she could not
speak. Mr. H., much shocked to think that
so ne member of her family had fallen a victim

placed her in chair He then thought it best
TO let her take her own time TO tell him the sad
news
The young lady sat for some time, with he I'd
bowed. unable TO restrain her sobs, FINAL, she
drew note out of her muff, b .nded il to Mr.
L., and went sobbing out of the Office The
note was addressed to Mrs. T.. but the affair
seemed curious Mr.. L. resolved TO read the
note 1t ran like this:

But did you never think that und arneath

Bidding for the Exposition.

New York is already estimating the
amount Of money the proposed exposition
IN 1892 would bring 10 her. Ole New York
newspaper estimates that there would be
spent, by visitors, g., so, OOJ day. or $3.50
| O0O.0 during the SIX mont it is proposed
70 hold theexp ,sition. From these figures
1t is apparent that the exposition is rich
prize. 1t is not to be wondered a. therefore,
! that four cities are truggling for it.
New York has Fl ance bmmittee COM
posed of mIllionaires who are trying to de-
wise plan TO raise $40, 900 900 for the expo
sition. The committee could bscribe the
whole amount and not feel poor after pay
ing 1t. They are not going to do 1t, how
ever. They don't want t. deprive the peo-
pie of a chance to subscribe The people,
however, would not consider it a very great
deprivation.
New York thinks that if she subscribes
SIC, 900, 900 congress will give her the expo
Sition. It is probable that she is right.
Chicagl offers only 5000, COO, and st
Louis and Washingto have offered nothing
thus far. When millions are talked of
st. Louis aud Washington take a back
seat They don't base their claims
on their ability to give money.
st. Louis thinks she is in the
center of the greatest nation Of the world,
and, hence, ought to have the exposition.
Washington bases her claim on the fact
that she is the capital of the nation. There
is not much the claim of either.
If New York raises 10000, 900 it is
probable that she will get the exposition.
Sac will get it because the cha ce Of the
exposition provi a financial sue 'esS will
be better if located within her limits than
within the limits of any other city.

No More Ether for Him.
From The Boston Advertiser.


Not long ago young man who had touch
or heart disease entered the Office of a Boston
dentist The young man had bad attack of
toothache, also, and in his anxiety to get rid OF
the offending tooth forgot to inform the dentist
that he wished to take the ethe; slowly and
cautiously. Consequently, just as he was about
TO succunb TO the influences of the gas, he re
membered his omission and raised his hand to
remove the tube from his mouth. But the
ether was little quicker than he, aud his arm
fell power ess at his side. He felt a rushing in
his brain and roaring in his ears. He felt, or
Imagined he felt, quick and sudden movement
OF his he IT. Then he felt nothing more b t
he continued to think very Violently
His brain seemed conscious of existence,
out ne could neither see, near, nor feel For
all he knew, he might haze been floating in
hghtless space. He was ignorant whether he
was cad r merely under the influence IF the
gas, but he would have given all ne was " orth
to know where aud what he was. For the space
OF what seemed to hi n To be several hours, he
strove in some way to prov whether he was
alive or dead. million thoughts of reminis.
cence, wonder, anticipation, horror and agony
shot through his BRAIN, and th4n he rose sud
denly with gasp to find that he was alive.
The sweetest sight that he had seen for years
was that dingy little dental office, with the
afternoons sun pouring in the window. He

Youn Mr.. Roosevelt is a civil service re-
former that makes glad the hearts OF the
genuine civil service reformers all over the
country. He talks a eat deai about what
he is going to do, and gives the country to
understa d that as long as he is member
of the vii service commission the civil
service reform regulations are going to be
enforced in letter and spirit.
But what has young Mr.. Roosevelt to say
abo the titude # his party with regar
to civil service reforml D )ei it not seem to
him that his party is regarding his enthusi-
asm in behalf Of civil service form with
good deal of anus nentl Has he noticed
that his party il its platforms said rot a
word alb tut civil service reform when
assembled in conventions within ths last
few weeks IN Ohio, Iowa and Pennsylva-
MIA! Does not this look as il he were bel lg
deserted in his civil service reform work,
and that in little while he would be able
to do nothing IN the way of carrying on the
reformf
When the Republican party was out OF
power it pretended 70 be very much in
favor of civil service reform. 1t couldn't
say enough about it to please its leaders.
Even in its national convention in 1888 it
adopted a resolution tnat was highly
gratifying to civil service reformers. 1t is
in power now, a d it apparently has no
more use for civil service reform, and Mr..
Roosevelt, if he COL tinues to be reformer,
will md his occupation gone. Mr.. Roo
welt should take a survey of the situation
before doing any more talking.

1t will be more than a year before the
election for governor of this state takes
place, but already political circles a.e a
good deal disturbed over it, and it is quite
evident that the guoernatorial contest will
be quite an exciting one. Hon. w. J.
N9rthen, preside 1T of the State Agricultu-
raj Society, has authoriz ID the announce
ment that he will be candidate. and
other gentlemen are known to have made I'D
their minds to seek the nomination. al
though they have not yet publicly an
nounced themselves as candidates. Mr..
Mort en- no doubt expects to receive
strong sup ort from the farmers, and it has
been charged that the convention of the
agricultural society at Cedartown last
last week was more a political than an
agricultural NEE ing. In reply to the state
ment that he was trying to use the society
to advance his gubsrnatoriAl prospects, Mr..
Northen said. few days ago, that the farm
ers of Georgia could no longer be ''usedn by
political aspirants. Mr.. Northern will
hardly be the only candidate who will ex-
pect strong support from the farmers. 1t
is tt ught That Col. L. F. Livingston will
be in the race, and. if he should, he would
get c'nsideranle support from them.
Southeast Georgia ought to be permitted
to name tne next governor, and if the
Southeast Georgia people should unite upo
strong man, he would stand pretty good
chance of being nominated.
1t has frequently been rumored during
the last year that Senator Brown would re-
people who profess to know say that he is
quite willing t. resign, but that he has been
prevailed upon not to do so until after the
legislature adjourns. In that case senator
would be appoi TED by the governor, to
serve until the next legislature elected one.
Fro present indications, as much interest
will be taken in the senatorial as in the
gubernatorial contest

Joaquin Miller writes good poetry, but
he seems to be stern, unforgivi lg man.
Some years ago his daughter rebelled
against his will and married a young actor
named Mccormick, who deserted her sew
eral years later. Mrs. Mccormick now
lives in Kansas City, where she filds en-
ployment in cheap museum, and thus sup
ports herself and h child. She is still n
very pretty woman. Her father has lately
become weslthy, but he won't help the
daughter who ma ried against his will
The person who calls to mind these facts
while reading Miller's touching poetry will
hardly be so greatly affected by it as he
would be otherwise.

The other day some of the newspapers
published telegram from Chicago an
nouncing that 2-year-old child had been
carried 100 feet in the air, over Lake Michi-
gan, by toy balloons. The story wa, that
peddler of these balloons let go the cord by
which he held them, and that the cord be-
came twisted around the child's arm. A
New York importer of toy ball IONS says he
doesn't believe the story, and goes on to
show why he doesn't, one Of his reas ons be-
ing that it would take $500 balloons TO
watt child of twenty-five pounds away
from its weeping mother. Ex-Postmaster
General Frank Hatton is another man who
doesn't lleve the story, and he has an ex
celeIt reason for his unbelief. He saws
that some years ago, wheA he was con-
nected with Chicago newspaper, he wrote
that particular story, and mad it printed in
his newspaper as a sort OF Offset to the great
amount of truth that had been creepine
into it.

SAVANNAH OF TO-DAY.
The Morning News Annual Trade Review
Few Pointers in Relation Thereto.

The MORNING NEWS Annual Trade Re
view, containing complete and compre-
hensjve statement of the business Of Savan-
nah, will be issued early in September
The year ending Sept. l. 1899, will be a
memorable one the history of Savannah,
and the MORNING NEWS proposes to give
the widest publicity to what Savannah has
done, is doing, and proposes to do in the
near future. There is no better way in
which the outside world can be informed of
what is going on in a community than
through the columns of its newspapers.
The MORNING News in its forthcoming
Trade Review will show by facts and
figures that Savannah is one of the most
progressive and healthy cities in the union,
and that her citiz4ns, judgi,g from what
they have done during the last year, are
fully alive to the great ess of her future.
They have proven by the various local i'm
provements they have made, and by the
active interest they have manifested in
railroads projected for her benefit, that
they are not afraid to invest their money
within her limits. They have demonstrated
beyond all doubt that they have confidence
In her great natural advantages, and that
they believe that her deep water harbor
and her great railroad systems will, in
few years, make her the greatest seaport
city in the south.
The MORNING NEWS will in its Trade
Review, presentto the word Savannah OF
to-day" In a resume of what has hereto
fore appeared in its columns The review
will be in such shape that, at a
glance, it will be seen what has
boon accomplished during the year.
The Trade Review will contain articles
allowing the blu mess of the city during the
year and present indisputable facts which
promise a steadily increasing prosperity.
1t will establish the fact that there is no
healthier city in the south and none more
pleasant in which TO live and do business
either in summer or winter. 1t will
prove by figures that Savannah is
without a rival on the South Atlantic
coast, and that by their acts her citizens
show that they are satisfied that she is
only at the beginning of her commercial
greatness.
The Trade Review will be printed in the
usual form, and will be newspaper which
those who feel a pride in their city will
take pleasure in sending to their friends.
1t will afford business mel an opportun-
ity of saying something about their business
ana themselves. 1t is hoped that in size, as
well as in other respects, it will sur ass
every previous edition. That, however
depends entirely upon the orders it re.
ceives from advertisers.
1t is desired to distribute $4,000 copies
and that number will be distributed, if the
response of the business men is as prompt
and liberal as ne have reason to believe 1t
will be.
Orders for advertising or for copies of
the paper can be handed in at the bushes
Office, or, if desired, they will be called for
by the canvassers.
