a Forcible Reminder.

Private" Allen was born good natured. and
he will always remain so, says the New York
Tribune. He fairly bubbles over with humor
Last winter he attended an evening entertain
ment at the residence of very wealthy SEN
ator. The dining room of the mansion is a
superb one. On this particular occasion it had
been decorated regardless of cost. Private"
Allen was asked TO escort to the dinner table a
southern woman with whom he was well ac-
quainted AS they neared the doors of the
magnificent room. Mr. Allen was struck dumb
for moment with admiration. Then turning
to his partner he said:
My dear young lady. let us pause a moment
or two. doubt il can restrain my feelings
There seemed to be trouble on his face, and
the lady said:
why. Mr.. Allen, what is the matter with

Standing by the Pilots.

According to our dispatches yesterday the
anti-compulsory pilotage bill has been
beaten so far as this session of congress in
concerned. Congressman Lester and Cum
mings who are tine chief cham pions of the
pilots. succeeded on Thursday, by very skill
full management in giving the bill such a
setback that nothing more will be heard of
it probably this year. Those who are sup
porting the bill, however, are not the men
to be easily disheartened. They will be
heard from again as soon as an opportunity
presents itself. Messrs. Lester and Cum
mings, who are watchful of the interests Of
the pilots can be depended upon to fight the
bill as vigorously as it is possible to fight it,
and, if they do not finally defeat it, it will
not be their fault.
The friends of the bill succeeded, BY the
hardest kind of work, in getting favorable
report upon it from the committee to which
it was referred The bill, however, had
| only majority of one of the committee in
| favor OF it. The strong minority of the
committee against it makes its passage ex-
ceedingly doubtful.
The passage of the bill would force many
! of the pilots to give up their occupation
because they could not make living in IT,
| Under the present condition of affairs their
compensation Is not fair one. They have
to endure great hardships and encounter
great dangers Much of the business they
once had has been taken away from them
ard they find it difficult now to make a
comfortable living.
Pilots are a necessity on the South At
lantic coast Without them commerce
would suffer greatly. If pilotage were not
compulsory there would not be enough
pilots on many occasions at any of the
! South Atlantic ports to meet the demands
of shipping. The pilots must be sustained
| by compulsory pilotage. That is the only
| way to insure sufficient number of first
class pilots The pilots look to Messrs. Les
Ter and Cummings to defend their interests
and it is certain that they will not look in
/ vain

Tampa and Key West Alarmed.

The Mckinley tariff bill alarms Tampa
and Key West, and with very good reason.
/ Those cities depend largely upon their
/ cigar factories. Those factories employ
many thousands Of men and women. In
Key West alone the cigar factories pay out
between $500 and 100000 per week. At
least %, 900 people depend upon these fac
! tories for living.
The manufacturers say that if the tax on
imported tobacco is increased, as proposed
in the Mckinley bill. they must close their
factories. They cannot pay the tax and
carry on their business profitably.
The Mckinley bill increases the tax on
Havana wrappers" from 35 cents to 50 a
which contain any wrappers" at all pay
the same duty as wrappers" All bales Of
"fller" contain some wrappers" and,
therefore, all tobacco, whether "wrappersn
or filler" would have to pay duty OF So
pound.
Could the manufacturers of Havana
cigars in this country stand such tax!
They say very positively that they could
not. The price Of Havana cigars manu-
featured in this country would be increased
from SIS to s25 per thousand
The authorities in Cuba have been trying
to destroy the cigar industry az Key West
and Tampa. Its agents succeeded in bring
ing on strike Of the cigarmaSers at Key
West few months ago. and sent vessels to
Key West to take the dissatisfied strikers to
Havana. They recognize that the Key
West and Tampa cigar manufacturers are
the rivals of those of Havana, and nothing
would please then, better than to see the
Tampa and Key West factories closed.
The Mckinley bill will close them much
more effectuslly than they could be closed
by dissatisfied operatives. Let it become a
law and the greater part of the population
of Key West would have to go elsewhere or
starye Tampa has other resources, but
without her cigar factories her prosperity
would not be so marked as it is
Both Tampa'and Key West manufacture
Havana cigars. The trade for cigars of
that kind is altogether different from that
for domestic cigars. The consumers of
Havana cigars will have them whether
they are manufactured in Key West or
Havana. The effect of the Mckinley bill,
therefore. would be to build up the Havana
cigar factories and ruin those of Tampa
and Key West. and that, too, without bene-
fitting the growers of tobacco in this coun =
try in the least. Clearly tue Mckinley bill
is wonderful one. 1t would ruin some in =

The Americas postoffice Matter.

Our dispatches announced few days ago
that the inspector who was sent to Americ as
TO find out whether or not David Dudley
(colored) was proper person for postmas er
of that city had made his report, aud
wonderful report it seams to be- The in
spector says that Dudley is competent to do
the work of the Office, and that his charac-
ter is good. At the same time he admits
that the business men of Americus-the men
who have the most extensive dealings with
the postotiice, and who are better able to
form correct opinion in the mat
ter-pronounco him incompetent, and
that he has accepted Oribes. Upon
whose Endorsement, then, does the inspac tor
base his favorable reports Upoa that of
colored people of Americas, who know
next TO nothing about what is required of a
postmaster. and whose recommendation of
good character is valueless? Or was he
sent to Americas with instructions to make
favorable report, without regard to the
facts. and did he simply follow instructions,
mentioning the opinions of reputable citi-
zens of the place because he c1all not very
well avoid doing 500 Very likely that is
| about the size Of it. Dudley is certainly an
unfit person for the position. He is lacking
| in the necessary qualifications. To
place him in charge of the postofiice
would be to ignore the wishes of and to in-
suit the people who do nearly all of the
business with the government through that
office; but u carpet-bagger who control s
the federal patronage for this state, and
who deserves no more respect than he has
shown for the reputable citizens of Georgia,
has decreed that Dudley shall go in, and go
in he will, unless the republican Senate has
the decency to rel CT the nomination. This
carpet Dagger mas put other indignties upon
the people of Georgia, and he is mot yet
| through with that sort of thing. He is
said to be under contract to hand over
| the republican vote of Georgia at the next
national convention to President Harrison,
| and no doubt the statement is true. To do
this, he must secure the favor of persons
who are likely to be delegates to the con
venJion. and thus it is that blacks like
Dudley are appointed to Office, while respect
able white republicans like Longstreet ar e
! ignored
