gentlemen to New England In the interest of
the coming exposition at Augusta, has been
an interesting event. There are In Augusta
at the present two hundred thousand
cotton spinning spindles in operation backed
by six million dollars of capital. Augusta
has been called the Lowell of the South. and
the Georgia gentlemen have been very ready
to acknowledge the help which Augusta has
received from the great manufacturing cities
OF New England in the way of capital and
skilled labor. Mr.. P. A. StoyelI, editor of
the Augusta Chronicle, also declared that the
new political hypocrisies" did not take deep
root in the South, and that the people of the
South were with New England and the East

ufacturers and business men Of cities like
Augusta and Atlanta are with the East in
desiring an honest dollar and opposing the

sentiment Of the South is with the free silver
fanatics, as is attested by the votes of the
southern men in Congress. With the excep-
ton OF one or two representatives from
oouthCarolina every southern Democrat vot-
ed LOT the Tree coinage of silver. Every Con
gresham from Georgia SO voted. It is un-
fortunate that the level headed business men
OF Augusta are not able to promise for their

important matter. If they could New Eng

The State convention of the Massachusetts,
Republicans which was held Boston yester
DAY was the most largely attended and most
enthusiastic for years. This was due in part
TO the warm contest for the governorship be.
tween the Hon. Charles I'll. Allen of Lowell
and the Hon. w. w. Grape of New Bedf ord
but the determination among Republi
cans to wrest the State firm the hands
of the Democrats, into which it fell
year ago by reason of The apathy OF
the party, was large factor in bringing
together the large and enthusiastic gather
ing. The contest for the nomination though
earnest was friendly. and the selection
of Mr.. Allen has left behind no bitterness,
SO that the Republicans will enter upon the
campaign united and harmonious. The plat
form adopted by the convention enunciares
all the cardinal principles of the Republican
party. 1t demands free ballot and fair
count, an honest dollar, and the continued
protection of American industries. On this
platform and with candidate of the high
standing of Mr.. Allen, the Republicans ought
to be able to redeem the old Bay State. The
only danger lies in apathy or dissension.

The evidence of corrupt practices in the
Dominion department of public works was
SO overwhelming that even the conservative
members Of the investigating committee are
compelled to admit their existence though
they acquit Sir Hector Langevin of any
completely in them. The Liberal members
think the revelations reflect upon Langevln
and that he ought to go. Whether he had
guilty knowledge or not the people will not
be likely to acquit him of all responsibility,
holding, as they doubtless will. such corrup-
tion as has been disclosed in his department
to be evidence of ineffciency on his part If
not of rascality. The biggest mistake the
Conservatives can make at this juncture will
be to undertake to shield anybody, no mat
ter how high in official station, who has been
connected with the public works scandals.

what 1t was expected to do, nominated
the Hon. Roswell P. Flower as candidate for
Governor. 1t is only the truth to say that
Flower would never have been thought Of,
had he not been the possessor Of great wealth
and been willing to use 1t to secure his
election. Flower is man of very small
mental calibre, and every distinction that
has come to him has practically been bought
with dollars and cents. If the question Of
the fitness of the two candidates Fassetl
and Flower, enters into the coming campaign
Flower will be buried beneath an avalanche

1t is gratifying to learn that the investiga-
ton of the Keystone bank frauds is to be
continued, the treasury department having
accepted the offer of the committee of fifty
to advance the money for that purpose. The
stopping of the investigation was due to the
exhaustion of the fund that Congress appro-
priated for such purposes, though the Demo-
cratic papers have tried to make it appear
that 1t was stopped to shield somebody.
The acceptance of the committees offer will
spike that gun. No matter who is hurt the
Keystone frauds ought to be probed to the
very bottom. Any other policy will be dis.
astrous to the administration.

The occupation of the island of Mitylene
would under the treaty of Paris be an act Of
war. That treaty guaranteed the indepen-
dence of Turkish territory and declared that
any infringement of hs possession would
constitute "casas belH" of which the
powers would be justified in taking notice.
Mitylene belongs to Turkey and Its seizure
by British force would be an infringement
of the provision of the treaty which guarau
teed the independence Of the Porte's territory
A good many Of the terms of the Treaty of
Paris have been violated, however, without
bringing on war, and probably the seizure of
Mitylene would not have that effect, though
1t would surely stir the Russian government

When the Senate meets in December there
are going to be two claimants for the seat
from Florida lately occupied by the Hon.
Wilkinson Call. One is Mr.. Call himself.
the other is Mr.. R. Fl. M. Davidson, an ex-
congressman from Florida. Call, it win be
recollected, was chosen by the Florida legis-
lature, when sufficient number of members
did not answer to their names to make QUO
rum, though a sufficient number were pres
ent The fact was that the presiding officer
counted quorum. The governor of the
State, however, concluded not to recognize
such an election as valid, and now after
waiting until the adjournment of the legisla-
ture has appointed Mr.. Davidson. Calls
title to the seat is no doubt valid, and no
doubt he will eventually get it. But the
Democratic Senators who proclaimed that
Speaker Reeds counting of quorum was
illegal, to preserve their consistency, will
have to vote against Call and for Davidson.
