The PRECEDENT a Candidate

There is no longer any reason for doubt
ing that the President is a candidate for re-
nomination. He has said so himself, and
that settles the matter. He talked freely to
the Washington correspondent of the New
York Tribune the other day, and it is to be
presumed that he desired the interview. If
he had not it would not have taken place.
He says that his party is stronger now
than when he was inaugurated. He must
have got the impression from those who &C
companied him on his recent duck-hunting
expedition. He certainly could not have
got IL from any well-informed politician of
his party.
Mr.. Blaine could have told him that his
administration was decidedly unpopular,
and that his party, SO far from being
stronger than it was two years ago, was in
a very shaky condition. What is thought of
it was shown at the congressional elections
last November.
And strange to say. the President upholds
Reeds arbitrary conduct in the last House
and approves the Mckinley tariff. He
says that his party should not apologize for
anything not even for appropriating
s., OOO, DOC, 600 during the last congress. He
seems to be in an aggressive mood, and yet
he says that tho Mckinley tariff ought to
be given fair trial That sounds like an
apology for that tariff. Talk like that is
certainly not in the least aggressive.
The President seems to think that Mr..
Blaine will not oppose his denomination.
Indeed, he counts upon Blaine's assistance.
Will he not be mistakenl Mr.. Blaine is
keeping very quiet, but the whole country
is mistaken if he is not expecting the nomi-
nation for himself. He is certainly stronger
with his party than the President.
The reason the President had himself
interviewed is not quite clear. By
announcing his candidacy and as
suming that there were no other
candidates, he hoped probably to dis
hearten whatever opposition there is to him.
If that were his purpose he may be disap-
pointed.

NE central and savannah.

The Central railroad is now, and has been
for many years. the great factor in Savan-
nAh's commercial prosperity. And there
are good reasons for thinking that 1t will
contribute still more TO her prosperity under
the arrangement by which the control Of it
is transferred 70 the Georgia Pacific Tie
leasing Of it TO that corporation does not
lessen its Importance in the least. It now
connected with system which reaches to
the Pacific ocean and makes a large part OF
the west and southwest tributary to Savan-
nab.
II the effect of the lease is rightly under
stood the Central is now, or soon will be, q
much more valuable railroad property than
it has ever been, or ever could have been
il it had remained a wholly indeoendent
road. II is now one Of the great highways
OF tie west 10 tie seaboard- And If part Of
the traffic Of the west is diverted to the new
route, IN accordance with expectations, Sa-
vannAh will soon becomes large importing
port, and the business now done By her custom
house will be small in comparison with that
which it will do.
Mr.. Inman, who is the chief owner of the
system Of which the Central is part. says
that in all probability the Ocean Steamship
Company will soon need two new steamers,
thus giving Savannah q daily steamer 70
New York, and that grain ships will be
seen al her wharves in the near future. He
is not too enthusiastic. The alliance with
the Gould system Of the west and southwest
will send an immense traffic in this direc-
ton, and Savanuah's wharves will present
busy scenes all the year round.
Mr.. Inman says that be and his associates
are not in the railroad wrecking business
They are striving to build up the south, and
thus make the railroad properties which
they control valuable. Whatever makes
their properties valuable must help Savan-
nah.
Savaunah's future, therefore, is brighter
than ever before. With greater railroad
and steamship facilities her business will in
crease. The character Of it may undergo
some changes, but its volume will become
greater from year to year, and new branches
will be added to it, And with the growth
of her business and the introduction of new
industries her population will increase
rapidly.
Already her popularity as a winter resort
is established. Her new hotel is a great
success. 1t is full to OVERLOOKING and has
been during the greater part of the winter.
Another great hotel is something TO be ex-
pected at no very distant day.
Yes, Savannah is on the up grade If
her people work earnestly and persistently
in her behalf they will not only be well re-
paid, but they will have the proud salts
faction of seeing her prosper as no other
southern city is prospecting. They are just
beginning to realize how great her advan-
tages are and what splendid promises she
holds out to those who have confidence in
her. Her future is now in their hands.
