IF the Salvation army is all right

humbug, suppress it. However, the
bold attempt, made by a young
fellow from the country last Satur-
day evening, to drive his team
through the ranks Of the Army as
it was marching on High street
should not have been permitted to
pass by without arrest and fine. lie
was guilty Of violating the law by
his fast and reckless driving on our
most prominent thoroughfare, and in
the opinion Of most every one who
witnessed his disgraceful action, he
was guilty of an attempt to do great
bodily harm. Seldom has a larger
gathering Of men, women and Gull
dren been seen on High street than
on last Saturday evening, the main
attraction being the Salvation Army
which, by the way is one Of
the best bands heard IN our city for
many day-and for person to

THE CROPS.

The crop reports coming in are Of
very encouraging nature. Every
where the farmers are hght-hearted
and confident. The acreage, while
not quite up to last year, is yet sui,
ficiently large to make practically no
difference in the prospective total
yield. The condition, which was sup
posed all along to be far below the
average, is but eight per cent. less
than last year, which is as surprising,
considering the backward and unta>
vorable season, as it is pleasing.
With the bright prospects which are
before the agriculturalists business
must necessarily be better this sea,
son than last. Farmers are buying
less on credit, merchants are carrying
fewer customers, banks have increased
their cash reserves, and with the re-
newed confidence which good crops
will bring business will increase most
rapidly.
The strain in the money markets
for the past few months has had ex~
cellent effect. 1t has taught the far
mer a greater self>relidnce and the VAL
ne of the cash system. He can buy
at closer figures for cash, and he has
learned, moreover, something Of his
resources. There are innumerable
means by which he can increase his
revenues, and by which he can pro-
vide his exchequer with needed funds,
All this he has learned through the
stern necessities with which he has
been brought face to face, and it BODIES
a brighter future TO the south.
The brightest prospects before any
people on earth are before the south,
ern people, and Georgia is big slice
of the south.

NOT A DUMPING GROUND.

1t is fully time European countries
were made to understand that this
country is not dumping ground for
the scum of their populations. There
are more undesirable immigrants COM
ing here now than at any previous
time in our history. The regular line
of steamships from Europe are not
able to accommodate them, and tramp
steamers are being hired to transport
them. And the efforts made to pre-
vent the undesirable immigrants from
landing are extremity feeble.
The secretary of the treasury, I'M
der law passed by the last congress,
has appointed a commission to go to
Europe and find out the means en-
ployed by the governments in the diff
ferent European countries to get the
scum OF their populations to emil
CRATE. 1t is considered absolutely
certain that most of the people who
are emigrating from certain counties
which are sending us large numbers
of emigrants are prompted to do so
by their respective governments. 1t
is even intimated that they are recip-
tents ofthe governments aid. If they
are the commission will find it out,
and the information will be laid be-
fore congress for its action.
The chairman of the commission is
ex>Congressnan Grosvenor, of Ohio.
He is an able and aggressive man,
and the commission under his direc-
ton will make report, in all probaS
, bility, that will be worth something.
Congress has been dealing with this
immigration question in hesitating
and uncertain kind of a way. 1t has
seemed afraid to take any positive
steps toward shutting our gates against
immigrants who are not wanted and
who are harmful TO us. We have so
long pursued the policy of receiving
all who come that it is difficult to
change it.
Public opinion, however, has be-
come so aroused by the coming of
hordes of people who are not only .
burden TO society but a menace to our
Institutions, that congress will be
forced to take steps to sift immigrants
aid admit only those who are genuine
homeseekers aud who will contribute
to the upbuilding of the country.
The steamship companies are sup>
posed to cooperate with the immigra-
ton authorities in keeping out undes
sirable immigrants, but from all ac>
counts they do not do so. They are
80 eager to make money that nearly
all of them bring to this country any
body who can pay his passage or whose
passage is paid. If they were forced
to take back the undesirable part of
their passengers they would be a lit
til more careful to obey the immigra-
ton laws.
AS matter of TACT, we want only
the very best OF the immigrants, and
we are in a position to pick and choose.
If we accept the scum, it is our own
fault, and we will have to endure the
evils with which it is sure to atfiict

PUBLIC EXECUTIONS.

The general sentiment Of the peo-
pie is against the public execution of
criminals in this State, and, this be-
ing the case, it seems to us that the
people have the remedy in their own
hands. Methods can be devised by
which executions can be private, and
when they are. We believe that crime
will be lessened. The most awful
feature of electrocution is its solemn
privacy, no uplifting of the criminal
before the rabble nc gallows speech
to be applauded by the multitude,
but the gloom of towering prison
walls and the awful silence of the
cell of death. 1t strikes US that pri>
waite executions point a moral which
has a good effect. When murderers
are executed as murderers, and not
lionized by the people, when they
are no longer allowed to pose as
heroes on the awful deathtrap and to
harrangue the populace to their hearts
content, there will be fewer OF them
called upon to mount the gallows.
