GOSSIP ABOUT GREAT MEN.

A Minnesota Mr.. E. f. Gould,
owner of the Traders
Man bank building, and one
of the largest stock
in the South. holders in the Traders
bank, is from Mime
sofa, says the Atlanta Constitution. He
came to Atlanta several years ago for
the purpose of investing some of his
money, and has since resided here. He
is said to be worth fully 100000, and
may be worth as much more.
Mr.. Gould made his money III tine
lumber business, and now owns large
tracts of land in the Northwest. Re-
Gently he purchased a lot in Atlanta,
and he is now having plans made for q
handsome residence. MIR. Gould is a
staunch Republican and firm believer
in protection. Unlike good many Re-
publicans, however, he is opposed to
the negroes taking an active part in
politics. A few days ago he visited
Americas, where he invested a good
round sum of his accumulated wealth in
some of the enterprises of that city now
being organized.
Referring to his trip he said: Il
found Americas quite fine little city,
and was much impressed with the peo-
pie OF the place. They appeared to be
alive to business, and l should judge
that the country around Americas was
very favorable to cotton planting. L
was amused at little thing that oc-
Cured while there. In conversation
with some of the people l told them that
l was Republican, but not in favor OF
giving the negro too much prominence
in politics; that | was in favor of the
best class of citizens ruling in every
community. 1t leaked out that was a
Republican, and it aStoniShed me to see
how far this information was circu
lated. While passing negro men on the
streets L would Oyerhear one of them
say There goes Republican, They

day. Finally one of them came to me
and said:

only way to get along is to stick to your
white friends here, who are able to give
you employment, and they will pay
you for your labor. The white people
here are your friends, and they will do
a great deal more good for you than
strangers at the North. Work and make
money, lay it up, build houses, and
keep out of politics. When you vote

and vote with them.

One would hardly look to Russia for
new ideas in domestic or social pru-
dence, but an organization reported in
one of the cities has suggestion in it. A
club composed of 125 families has en-
ployed capable physician by the year,
each family paying 90 cents month.
The doctor visits each family regularly,
attends all their sick members, and
gives them advice as to health and oc-
casional lectures or hygiene and physi-
ology. The doctor wouldn't have much
show to get rich out of it. The notable
point is that it is for the interest of the
doctor not to have sickness in his list.
He is constant sanitary inspector for
his patrons.

WHAT DOES TT MEAN?

Those in pursuit of social philosophy
as related to the bibulous practice will
find suggestion in the government sta
tistics. These show that while reform
ersdo not loom up in the figures notably,
the people have been steadily changing
drinks. Not very aged persons can
remember when lager beer was not
familiar name, and malt liquors were
little used Rum was the New Eng
land reliance, and whisky was the prev
alent tonic of the West. But the beer
came in with the Germans and has been
steadily pushing to the rear the inspi-
ration of the fathers. When the houses
for the sale of beer began to be opened,
forty or fifty years ago, the progress of
King GAMBRINUs was impeded and his
success thrown into doubt by the hest
fancy Of the rising temperance reform
to put beer under the ban. 1t was even
questioned that twas Intoxicating. But
the refOrmers soon vindicated it from
the aSperSiOn, and 1t has since Waged a
W inning fight with whisky until it has
captured the old flag and is to-day the ma
tlonal drink. The internal revenue fig
ures show the proportions of its victory.
Whisky reached the high-water mark
before the war. The consumption that
year was 64,000,000 gallons, or three gal
ions for every individual. Beer had
been coming up for two decades, and in
1860 reached 10l, 600 gallons. Every
decade since has shown widening gaps
between the two. In 1880 whisky could
find consumers for but 61,000,000 gal
Ions, which was but meager 1.27 gal
Ions per capita, and this had fallen in
1888 to 1.23 per head. Beer came up to
413,220,000 gallons in 1880. and is now
fully S00,0 100000. Its gains in the last dec
ade have been enormously out Of pro-
portion to population and the losses of
whisky. Over IL gallons Of beer are
now made way with per head, and less
than gallon and quarter of whisky.
| Records are not frequent where a great
nation has, in single generation, COM
| pletely changed it's drink. 1t is fact
full of significance, and the result of
causes that are giving new fashions to
the national life. The people are TAX
| ing less alcohol, but more bulk.

TOPICAL TALK.

Merits and 1t is qualification,
sometimes, to see our
Defects OF selves as others see US;
hence it would have
journalism. been pleasure for the
newspaper men of the
country to have listened to the
criticisms of the Twilight club
last evening while the members
discussed the merits and defects of
current journalism. The club is COM
posed OF representative men OF culture
belonging TO the various professional
and industrial pursuits, SO that the con
census of opinion respecting current
journalism obtained in the club last
night may be accepted as fair refiec
ton of public opinion everywhere. 1t
is creditable to current Journalism that
its merits are thought to predominant
over its defects, and that this opinion is
expressed by many who have felt the
sting of newspaper criticism. The i'm
proyement made in journalism is most
perceptible by comparison. Looking at
American journalism as it was quarter
of century ago, and then looking at it
as it is to-day, we readily perceive
the progress that has been made.
The stage of perfection has
not been reached yet. but the
tendency is steadily in that direction.
1t is something in favor of American
journalism that, instead of modelling
after European patterns, it originated
its own policy, which in time has be-
come the model for the journalism OF
the old world. One prominent feature
of American Journalism and depart
ure from the old methods is the entire
separation of the fields of magazine and
newspaper literature. The essayist
now goes to the magazine to find his
sphere, while the crisp, sententlOus para
grapher sticks to the newspaper. just
after the war newspaper establishment
in Georgia offered Alexander HI. Steph-
ems the position of editor, which was
accepted 1t was thought that Mr..
Stephens reputation as a statesman and
political philosopher would give the
paper big circulation. But after a
few months trial it was discovered that
Mr.. Stephens couldn't write a paragraph
under two columns in length, land as the
readers did not care to have a political
essay every morning for breakfast, they
quit taking the paper, and subscribed
for one that diShed up the news in
crisper style. This illustrates the diff
ference between the old and new styles
of journalism. If current journalism is
not better than 1t is, it is the fault of the
public taste. While the press is a
power it has got to work out its own eX-
istence. There are very few newspaper
publishers who go into the business for
their health. Like the man who sells
dry goods or groceries, the newspaper
publisher lays in his stock according to
the demand.

Sale of the The event of most
interest III Northwest
Burlington. ern railway circles the


Burlington. ern railway circles the
past week was the sale
of the Burlington & Northern to the
Chicago, Burlington & Northern. The
latter has always been regarded as the
parent of the former, and by many be-
lieved to have been in reality the same
company. As matter of fact the 20"
paid $500, 900 for survey and preliminary
work when the Burlington was built to
st. Paul, and owned one-third of the
stock. The remaining two thirds were
owned principally bv Boston parties.
Three years ago the Burlington q
Quincy offered to buy the whole of the
Northern stock, giving in payment 4
per cent bonds dollar for dollar. But
the Northern people declined the offer,
claiming that their stock was worth ITO.
They took 40 in the final deal. The
Northern road cost S2l.000,000. and its
funded debt is Sl3,000.000, so that the
Quincy people got good bargain. 1t
is claimed that the operations of the in
terstate law and the opening of the
800" prevented the Northern from
realizing the expectations of its build
ers. The sale will eliminate the most
troublesome factor in the Northwestern
railroad business. and will possibly
put an end to ''cut-rate" wars.
