A Killing Frost.

The cold weather of Sunday night did an
immense amount Of damage in this state
and Florida. The cold weather Of Saturday
night did considerable damage, but not as
much as that of Sunday night.
Our dispatches this morning show that
fruit, vegetables and cotton in some locali>
ties have been virtually ruined. Melons.
vegetables and cotton will have to be re-
planted.
Such cold weather in this section Of the
country at this season of the year is almost
unprecedented. 1t has put back those
farmers who have planted cotton and
melons several weeks. And it will be al
most useless to replant certain kinds OF
vegetables, because they would not be ready
for market. much before the same kinds of
vegetables would mature in Virginia,
Maryland and New Jersey.
The farmers have many things to contend
with. The frost comes when it isn't
wanted, and il the weather isn't too wet it
is generally too dry. But, after all, enough
is produced to supply the wants of the
world.
OF course the fruit that has been destroyed
is total loss. The trees will not bloom
again this year. But cotton, melons and
some kinds of vegetables will be replanted
at once.
1t is not possible. of course. to estimate
the loss which the farmers have suffered,
but it is very large. The year, however
may not turn out 70 be bad one for them.
1t Is certainly to be hoped it will not

The Florida Legislature.

The legislature Of Florida meets to-day,
and the session promises to be very inter-
esting one. Among the members there are
many alliancemeh, aud nobody except
| themselves knows what character they will
| give to the sessions work. They are deeply
| impressed with the thought that they must
do something for the farmers, and it is
understood that they have quite a number
Of bills bearing upon the farming interests
ready to be introduced as soon as the Senate
and House are organized.
There may be some little delay in effecting
an organization. owing TO the senatorial
contest The Call men will try to name the
speaker of the House and the president Of
the Senate, with the view of using the chair
manships Of the committees TO influence
votes in the senatorial fgat. And the oppo-
sition to Call will do the same thing. The
most prominent candidates for speaker are
T. L. Gaskins, of Bradford, and Charles
Dougherty, of Volusia. There are half a
dozen prominent candidates for presi>
dent of the Senate.
1t is evident that the reelection Of Sena-
tor Call is by no means certain. Some Of
the leading alliancemen are opposed to him,
and it looks as if it would be impossible to
make an agreement by which he would get
the alliance vote.
There are 100 members Of the legislature,
thirty-two senators and sixty-eight repre-.
sentatives. If the senetorship is decided in
caucus under the two-thirds rule, the sue
cessful candidate must get sixty-six votes.
Ii the election is held without a caucus nomI-
nation fifty-ore votes will elect a senator,
as fifty-one is a majority Of the two houses.
1t is not believed that Senator Call has
sixty-six votes pledged to him, and it is
thought to be extremely doubtful if he has
fifty-one. 1t would seem to be good policy
for him, therefore, to object to a caucus
nomination. He would stand a better
chance il he had to get only ifty-one votes
than il he had to get sixty-six.
AS is well known, Senator Calls chief op-
ponent is Mr.. Dunn of Ocala He is very
rich man and has been liberal in his gifts to
the alliance. Whether he will get the alliance
vote or not is a question that cannot be an
swered at present. The chances are that he
will get part Of it. Senator Call has a
good many friends among the alliancemen,
and they will work actively in his behalf.
The senatorial contest at Tallahassee, there
fore, may be as interesting as the senatorial
contest at Atlanta was some months ago.

Amazed at the south's Growth.


In an interview published in the Balti-
more Herald Of Sunday Senator German,
speaking of his recent trip through the
south, said that he was amazed at the evil
dences of prosperity which be saw every
where. and particularly at the progress made
within a comparatively few years. He had
no doubt that the south was the richest
section Of the country in natural resources.
which. he said, were being developed with
wonderful repidity.
What struck the senator with especial
| forcs was the energy which the native
southerners display. He said that they
manifested an activity IN developing their
section and pride in its growth which
have been lost sight of by many in the
north. In this connection he expressed
himself as follows: Northern capital is
doing great deal, to be sure, but it is not
doing everything. Southern brains and
southern money are playing an equal-in-
deed. can safely say greater-part in the
industrial progress. There's Savannah.
Perhaps you are not aware that she is the
greatest shipping port for naval stores in
the world, and the second cotton port in
this country Such is the fact. Well,
southern people control nearly all Savan-
nah's railroad management, her wharf
facilities and her big cotton WAREHOUSES.
The southern people are filed with un-
bounded enthusiasm. They realize their
opportunities, they see a brilliant era of
prosperity ahead of them, and they are
dete mined to make use of their opportuni-
ties to the fullest extent They are never
tired of talking to you about their resources
and never let chance slip by to coax out
side capital into their territory"
Gradually the whole country is beginning
to understand that tile south has a splendid
future, and as this understanding becomes
clearer capital and desirable class of imrni-
grants will seek her. The people who are
buying farms in Georgia are almost all
from other states. OF the kind of Euro
pean immigrants who prefer to pick up
precarious living in the great cities rather
than 60 into the country and build up homes
for Themselves the south gets very few.
And she can get along without them. She
wants farmers and mechanics, because If she
has plenty of them her cities will grow fast
enough.
Men like Senator German who visit the
south do her good. They are capable of I'M
Outstanding what they see and also of draw
ing correct conclusions with respect to the
future. And when they talk they make an
impression. The talk which Senator Cor
man has given the newspapers about his
southern trip viii do the south great deal
of good

A ooaling Station Needed.

We have called attention a number of
times to the great need of coaling station
at or near Tybee. Such station would be
OF the greatest benefit to steamships which
visit this port, Atlantic ports south of this,
and gulf ports. Frequently steamships
from these ports bound for European ports
are wrecked on the treacherous coast of
North Carolina and Virginia while on their
way to Norfolk or Newport News for coal.
And there is no good reason why Savan-
nah should not be coaling station. Her
railroads reach the finest coal fields in the
world-6elds where coal can be obtained in
unlimited quantities and at very low prices.
The Savannah and Atlantic railroad,
which is now part of the Central railroad
system, gives an all rail route from the coal
fields to the ocean. A coaling station could
be advantageously located on Tybee Island,
or at Potato Point Near Tybee
there is good harbor and
G sufficient depth of water to float the
largest tramp steamers which visit south
ern ports. At Potato Point, where
Lazaretto creek enters the Savannah river,
there is a land-locked harbor, in which there
is at least thirty feet of water. Between
this harbor and the regular ship channel
there is only narrow shoal, which could
be readily removed by dredging.
And the land at this point is owned by
the Savannah and Atlantic railroad. To
build wharf suitable for the handling of
coal for ocean going vessels would not cost
great deal of money.
A coaling station here could hardly help
being profitable. 1t would be literally
patronzed. Steamships that could do so
would get their coal here rather than make
the voyage to Norfolk or Newport News
and encounter the dangers of Hatterss.

A Man Raises HE Hat

1. When he bows to a lady or an
elderly gentleman.
2. When he is with lady who bows
to any person, even if the other is total
stranger to him.
8. When he salutes a gentleman who
is in the company of ladies.
4. When he is in the company of an
other gentleman who bows to lady.
5. When he is with lady and meets
a gentleman whom he knows.
6. When he offers any civility to a
lady who is stranger to him.
Z. When he parts with lady after
speaking to her, or after walking or driv-
ing with her, etc.
In the elevator, where there are ladies,
men may keep on their hats with perfect
propriety. Nine out of ten do, with good
and sufficient reason. Elevators are
draughty places and are public convey
ances, though within doors. To raise
the hat when lady enters is becoming
courtesy, but this is very different from
standing with the hat off while the eleva-
tor mounts the 18th floor. A hat when
not on the headis in the way in an eleya-
tor. 1t is embarrassing to the occupants
to feel that they may unwittingly spoil
good hat by an unwary turn that
knocks it in or makes havoc with the
