Too Rash and Sudden.

It is unfortunate that tho merldlonal tom
permanent OF tho Atlanta Constitution has
overpowered tho discretion Of that influen-
tial journal. Tho proposition for general
boycottlng OF tho North by the South In the
event OF the passage Of the Bayonet bill has
probably helped rather than hurt the
chances OF that measure. 1t is notorious
that there are Republican Senators anxious
10 prevent Its passage. The sentimental
fury OF a few Georgians has given the enc
mics OF the South q specious argument to
address to the pride OF these reluctant SEN
ntors, who will not escape the taunt OF hav-
ing yielded TO Southern intimidation and
threats, II they persist In their opposition.
Tho attempt to hold the North RESPONSE
BILE for the programme which the desperate
Republican leaders have forced upon tho
House OF Representatives., and are trying to
force upon the Senate, is idlotic. The su-
perhcated persons who are breathing fire
and boycott will understand when they cool
of that their crusade Is calculated to make
the South ridiculous and to irritate even
conservative opinion. 1t is an effort, and
very silly effort, to prevent legislation by
threats OF commercial non-intercourse. 1t
Il sectionalism Of the worst kind. The talk
about making a Poland or IN Ireland OF the
south is mere hystericd passfo Tho South
is all right, and nine-tenths OF tho Republic
can decamations about 1t Is buncombe, and
our Southern friends should cultivate the
sense OF hunor little more.
The Republicans have unconsciously been
doing about everything in their power to
insure tho election OF Democratic Con-
gress next year. They have made the coun-
try sick Of extravaganza, humbug, and pa
ternalism. The Bayonet bill is as offensive to
conscientious Republicans as it is to Demo-
Gratis, and there is strong probability that
the Grand Old party will be punished for
1t. The senscless boycott talk is welcome
to tho Republicans. and they will work their
hardest to reap advantage from 1t. What
they will ask. would become Of the indepen-
dence OF legislative body II the boycott Is
to be put in use as a means OF preventing
or protesting against certain legislationP
We have forgotten the name OF tho PHI
losopher who condensed into one great
phrase the art OF moderation: Keep
your shirt on" We commend that phi
losophy to our esteemed contemporary, the
Atlanta Constitution. Perhaps, however,
that journal is loss serious than it seems.
Perhaps, in truth, a boom is concealed be-
meath the boycott.

Fears OF Trouble at the Election In tho
Chickn8nw Nation.

WASHINGTON. July 25.-The Interior Depart
ment has from time to time received informa-
ton that at the general election In the Chicka-
saw Indian Nation. In August next, there is
some fear OF trouble over the amendment to
the constitution Of tho nation. which was
adopted In April. 1889. DISTINGUISHING whites
who have married Indian women about 500 in
NUMBER as well as the adopted citizens OF the
nation. The Commissioner OF Indian Affairs
tnkes the ground that the constitution OF the
Chickasaw Nation coniers the right OF suffrage
upon male persons who are meml ers OF the
tribe ly birth or adoption. but does not confer
1t upon those who have become such by inter-
marriage The treaty OF 1865. SAYS tho Com
missioner secures TO tho ChickasRw Nation tho
Unrestricted right OF sef-Eovernment. subject

In its history. in which. apparently, it's very

Mr.. BIANE's second letter to Mr. FRYE
furnishes the latter with the facts" for which
ho asked. Mr.. BLAINE reminds Mr.. FRYE that
reciprocity treaties with Spain and Mexico were
rejected by the Senate simply because they
provided for tho admission OF sugar FREQ and
that Spain OF her own motion sought the free

admission OF certain American products into
Spanish ports. Mr.. BLA1EE records for the

Again the farmers, and again Chicago!
The first piece of folly displayed In regard to
the proposed celebration In 1892 was to take it
to Chicago. The second was the conclusion to
hold 1t there on two separate and more or less
distant Sites In other words, to have two
fairs. Intelligent Americans or patriotic Suck
ers might we'll howl at such q harum- scarum
absurdlty; but more concentrated opposition
certainly. and therefore moro effective. arises
on the part Of that new and looming figure In
politics. the farmer. The Secretary OF the Illl-
nois State Board OF Agriculture thus declares
his preparation for throwing the proposed site
to be taken out OF tho bosom OF Lake Michigan
back into the lake:
"one OF tho grand purposes of an American Expos.
ton is tho exhibition OF the aRricu ltural products
Under no circumstances and by no expenditure of
funds within tho reach Of the Worlds Fair the lake
front Aio be made adequate to the demands OF this
great combined agricultural exhibition Four hundred
OF Lard would not DO in for the Agricul
tural eXhiblto Of the world; 200 would ba the
minimum viii, would accommodate tho States OF this
Union II Is absolutely impossible to give us this 200
acres II the lake front 10 selected as site We will
be satisfied with site which places the agricultural
exhibit mile away from the other principal features
OF tho Fair. We want united site"
The lake front site has only $50 acres. The
agriculturists want ut least 200 acres and they
want this by the side OF the other exhibits.
Farmer GARRARD need not apply the roller OF
politeness to the narrowed brains OF the I'M
successful site seekers. by the apology OF
unwlllngness Ito be placed In a position OF
attempting for a moment to dictate" His OBJ
lection rests on the durable foundation OF
uncontroyertiblo sonso. In the way OF demon
strating the poverty OF Chicagos territorial
and Intellectual equipment. the Exposition
OF '92. or '93, as 1t Is now called. has SO far

| heard such a funny story about a
famous poetess Of passion, whose poems
ought of course to bring tremendous
prices. but sometimes are rejected like
those Of less gifted mortals. A young
editor received one from the lady, with a
note stating that she would sell it to him
for $40, put that from any other editor she
could easily get SEQ. When the young
editor, who is as wise as a serpent while
looking as harmless as a dove, received
this note he waxed sarcastic and laughed
with merry scOrn. for he had CHANGED to be
In various other sanctums where this very
poem had been read aud rejected.
He realized that his paper was a dernier
resort, and carefully folding up the spasm
Of emotion he returned it, with a polite
note to the effect that he couldn't think OF
taking the poem at such low rates when
the author could so easily get double her
price elsewhere. The fiery poetess tells all
her friends that the editor is no gentle
man.-New York Cor. Chicago Herald.

Gstting Rid Of BuEEIng I'm the Telephone.
The Central New York Telephone and
Telegraph company Of this city has devised
a plan by which the Induction to its lines
by the electric current on the wires OF the
Belt line street railroad is in a measure
overcome. When the electric cars were
first operated, and mt times since, patrons
Of the telephone company have complained
Of a buzzing sound in the instrument when
the receiver was placed to the ear, making
it difficult to understand the person at the
other end of the liue. Trouble was also
occasioned in the exchange by the frequent
falling Of the a~nnunsiator when no one
had sent in a call.
Investigation by the company's cleo
~tricians revealed the fact that the trouble
was occasioned by the electric cars. The
current from the underground wires OF
the railroad spread out and interfered with
the return circuit of the telephone com.
pany. The difficulty can never be entirely
obviated, but n plan has been hit upon by
which the service is greatly improved. A
large copper wire has been run from the
central Office between the line wires on
which the phones are connected, and
thence into the ground. thus establishing
a balance between the two currents,-Utica
