The morning news. [volume] (Savannah, Ga.) 1887-1900, 1891-07-03

The administration has changed the form
of the debt statement. That statement is
now separated from the statement of the
cash in the treasury. Tie secretary gives
some reasons for this change, but the real
reason is that the 81 900, 600 900 congress,
which Reed ruled with an iron hand, not
only used up the surplus which was 10 the
treasury when the Cleveland administra-
ton went out Of power, but it appropriated
more money than the revenu s amount to.
The consequence is that the condition of the
treasury is not such as to make the Score
tary of the Treasury feel comfortable. He
is afraid that he will be soon in need of
cash. and he certainly will if the pension
office continues to turn out pension GER
tifcates as rapidly as at present.
But what worries the administration par
ticularly is the showing the treasury is
making upon the eve Of the political cam
paigus in the different states The people
know that the democrats left q plethoric
treasury, and that the revenues since the
Harrison admin istration took charge OF the
government have been large, and they very
naturally want to know what has become
of the money
Secretary Foster has changed the treasury
statement so as to make better showing for
the treasury. but the change won't accom-
plish the purpose intended. The people
know that there has been reckless extrava-
gance, and the effort to mislead them will
fail

Florida and the Fair.

The Florida legislature made no appro-
priation for an exhibit Of the products OF
that state at the Columbian Fair at Chi
cago. and unless the necessary money IS
subscribed by private parties Florida will
make a very poor appearance at the fair.
And that condition Of affairs is not at all
satisfactory to her progressive people.
At the great fairs at Philadelphia and
New Orleans Florida was conspicuous for
her splendid exhibit. which attracted a
great deal Of attention and did her an I'M
Ineuse amount of good. The showing she
made of her products was great adver-
tisenent for her, and brous ht her thousands
Of immigrants and caused millions Of dol
lars to be invested within her borders
Her people are determined that che shall
make crsdttAbls appearance at the Chicago
fair. The enberprisng citizens Of Orlando
have called convention 70 meet IN that
city on the first Wednesday in October to
adopt q plan for raising fair fund. 1t s
expected that every county in the state will
be represented Ia the convention, and it
will be rather surprising II every one isn't.
And there will be but one opinion sx-
pressed, ana Llbt 10 AlnI WA A1aAo
a grave mistake If she fails 20 provide
good exhibit Tor she fair.
Within the last two years Florida has
discovered a new source of wealth-im-
mense wealth-withiu her borders She
has the greatest deposits Of phosphates in
the world. The shipment Of these phos-
pilates to foreign markets has just begun,
but in the very near future they will bring
into the state millions OF dollars annually.
Florida must show her phosphateS at the
Chicago fair. as well as her tobacco and
sugar, and her great variety of fruits and
vegetables.
The call which Orlando has made should
be responded to enthusiastically from all
parts Of the state. There is not much
doubt that Florida will be at the fair and
so laden with her riches that her people will
have every reason to be proud Of her.

Preparing for 1892.

The Democratic party is getting ready
for the presidential campaign. The letter
of Senator Brice. chairman Of the national
democratic committee, addressed TO tne
chairmen OF the democratic state commit
tees, and published in our dispatches yester-
dAy. shows that the democratic eiders mrs
anxious that the Democratic party shaI
prepare at once for the presidential contest
next year. And there is iced for prepaFa~
ton. 1t would be folly 20 walt until tue
national tickets are nominated. The he-
publican party rs getting Itself into fight
ing trim. Its clubs are organizing, and
long before the meeting OF It's national
convention it will be thoroughly organizer
for work.
And II will have plenty of money with
which TO work. Chairman Brice points out
in his letter that the pocketbooks OF the
rnonopolIes and trusts will be at It's con-
mapd. With the unlimited means at It's
disposal 1t will good the country with
political literature favorable 10 its views
and will send speakers into every county Of
every state which they have any prospect
of carrying.
The Democratic party cannot command
q great deal Of money. 1t must depend upon
organization aud the earnest efforts OF its
members With the right sort of manage
meut, 81 pplemented by earnest. enthusiastic
and intelligent work. it is certain to be vic
torious.
But the victory will not be an easy one.
The republicans understand that If taey do
not win in 1892 they will go out Of power to
stay. They are, therefore, going to make
extraordinary efforts TO retain control of
the government. They will leave nothing
undone TO succeed.
This is the time for every genuine demo-
crat to be thinking how he can help his
party. Those democrats who are permit
ting themselves to sYmpathize with the
Peoples party are doing a very foolish
thing. And those who are asserting that
they are democrats but who are praising
the platform of the Peoples party, are do
ing the Democratic party harm, because
they are destroying the enthusiasm upon
which it so largely depends for success.
The thing for all true democrats to do ia %
stand together, defying all other political
parties and battling for democratic prin-
ciples

Only a Few Contested Cases.

There will be very few contested election
cases in the present congress. There are
only six on file, and it is not expected that
there will he any more. One Of the six is
that of Miller against Elliott, of the Seventh
district Of South Carolina. In the last
congress Miller successfully contested the
right Of Col. Elliott TO represent that dis.
trict. He would not have been successful
in his contest, however had it not been for
the fact that the republican majority
turned out democrats without sufficient
grounds for doing so. The republicans
were determined to get a good working
majority, and Col. Elliott was unseated.
There is no probability, however, that
Miller will be successful in his present CON
test.
The number Of contests in this congress
is in marked contrast with the number in
last congress. When the republicans have
the majority a large number of contests are
looked for, because of the reputation the re-
publicans have for deciding them in favor
Of the republican claimants. The demo.
Gratis, however, decide contests upon their
merits. and for that reason a democratic
congress is not troubled with them to any
great extent.

How They Have Died.

humor. SAYS the Youths Competition. which is
often a very grim sort. a European traveller
who was visiting the court of the Imam of
Muscat not long ago relates the following:
Il had heard that no ruler of Muscat for the
last 100 years had died a natural death, and was
interested when. in our conversation. the Imam
himself introduced the matter Of this extraOr-
binary fatality among thu sUvereigas of the
country.

for 100 years has died in his bed:'
Certainly not. said he. with a perfectly
grave face. Let me see-four of them have

A Doubtful Story.

The Washington correspondent of the New
YORK Press is responsible for the story that
Mills and Bynum have about decided
to withdraw from the speaker
ship contest, aud to use their influence in
behalf of Holman for speaker. The Press
correspondent also states that Mills is OPP
posed to Cleveland, because the latter favors
Crisp for speaker. Mills, it is alleged.
thinks he ought to have Clevelaud's
support, because he did a great deal to bring
about Cleveland's election in 1884, and was
always his firm friend and defender. The
correspondent does not give the reason why
Bynum he's decided to withdraw from the
speakership.
1t is quite safe to assume that the Press
correspondent knows nothing of the mat~
ters concerning which he writes with such
freedom and confidence. There is no evil
dence that either Mills or Bynum has with
drawn from the speakership contest, and it
is quite certain that Cleveland has given no
intimation that he prefers Crisp for
speaker. 1t looks as if some one had been
making the Press correspondent the sub
ject OF practical joke.
Mills has not said publicly that he was
out OF the speakership contest, and if he has
said SO privately those to whom he confided
the secret have guarded it closely. But il
is much more than probable that he has no
thought of withdrawing. On the contrary
all his actions indicate that he expects to be
the next speaker Holman would make a
thoroughly honest speaker, but he is alto
gether too slow a man for presiding officer
OF the House.
And Cleveland has too mueh political
sagacity to become mixed up ia a contest
which may cause GOODNESS among some Of
the democratic leaders Of the House, He is
supposed to be candidate for the demo-
cratic presidential nomination, and, that
being the case, he could make no greater
mistake than to try TO consrol the organi-
zntion Of the House. Those he opposed
would become his political enemies and at
tempt to defeat his nomination. In fact
the Press correspondent says that Mills is
already trying to form a combination
against him.
The republican press is very much afraid
Mr.. Cleveland will be the democratic presi-
dental candidate, and therefore they make
the most of the every opportunity that pre-
sents itself to create sentiment against him.
They admit virtually that, in their opinion,
he is the strongest candidate the democrats
could nominate.

Organization Of the Peoples party is still
