Where Does mir. Watson Stand ?

In his speech at Atlanta Hon. Thomas
Watson is reported as saying that he could
not see any cardinal difference between the
Democratic and Republican parties. There
are three platforms, he said, the democratic,
republican and Ocala, and of the three the
Ocala is the best. The Ocala platform was
adopted by the Peoples party. 1t is fair to
assume, therefore, that Mr.. Watson is pre-
pairing to join the Peoples party, if he has
not already done so. He cannot say that
there is an effort to drive him out of the
Democratic party. He himself has made a
declaration which virtually places him in
the Peoples party.
With his convictions he cannot, Of
course, see any difference between the Dem
ocratic and Republican parties. Those who
believe in democratic doctrines, however,
see very great difference difference so
marked that it pretty evenly divides the
people of the whole country.
And it is safe to say that Mr. Watson's
constituents see the difference so clearly
that if he had made the declaration last
fall which he made at Atlanta OH Wednes
day he would not now be member of con.
gress.
No one questions his right to his convic-
lions, but he should not be disappointed if
he finds that his convictions are not those
of the members of the party which has
given him its confidence and support.

The Pious-Lookinz stran ger.

Over in Missouri there is a certain plank road
and certain toll gate. Beside the toll gate
says the Quincy Herald. there is a farm house
on the cool and comfortable porch whereof the
worthy farmer usually sits waiting TO collect
toll. while his boy Bill pIoughs the corn in the

mere was no one ia the farm house. no one
nearer than the farmer and his boy Bill, half a
mile away in the field. The toll gate IN
!ocked-open, in fact-but this pious stranger
was temptation-prOof. He hitched his horse to
a tree and proudly flouudered out to where the
farmer and his boy Bill were at work
My good man, said he, ARE you the keeper

presently.

An Excitinz Campaign in Ohio

The political campaign in Ohio Is going
to be CT exciting one. Gov. Campbell will
make it so. He is as strong man on the
stump as Maj. Mckinley, the republican
gubernatorisl candidate. And he is very
popular. It is true that there was some op
position t. bis denomination. But 1t came
from Cincinnati delegates who dislike him
for personal reasons. His course as COVER
nor in matters pertaining to Cincinnati does
not please them. It pleeses the majority of
that city, however, aud the opposition of
those of his own party who are hostile to
him, therefore, will not jeopardize his sue
cess
The main issue of the campaign will be
the tariff. 1t would not be possible to make
any other issue the leading one. Maj Nc
Kinley is the author Of the present tariff
law, and he is defending it. In the speeches
he has thus far made he has discussed little
else than the Mckinley bill. That bill was
the issue last fall when he was defeated for
reelection. He thinks the people have
better understanding of it now, and that
they will reverse the decision they rendered
last fall
lie Will De disappointed, however. Inc
farmers and workingmen are just as conf
dent now as they were then that the high
protection policy Of the Republican party
is responsible for most of the evils of which
they complain.
Coy. Campbell has made an excellent
chief executive. Even the republicans
have very little fault to find with his adj
miuistration of the gubernatorial office,
aud the Cincinnati faction of his own party
that is hostile to him will support him proba-
bly, rather than the republican candidate. If
it should make an open fight against him.
however, for the reasons it assigns for
being hostile to him, there would be aroused
so much sympathy tor him that his vote in
Cincinnati would be larger than it would
otherwise be.
The democrats of Ohio are going to make
a supreme effort for victory. They under
stand that democratic success in Ohio this
fall would help the democrats greatly in the
presidential campaign next year. If Gov.
Campbell should be elected, the election of
democrat for President in 1892 would be
considered certain.

The Courteous Young Man.

l was in public place of amusement in the
Bowery the other day, says NJ. Quad in the
New York World, and a young man took charge
Of me and showed me around and made lots of
explanations in the most courteous manner.
While he was telling me that the Wild Man of
Borneo had preference for raw beef | thought
felt his hand IN my pocket, but it is so easy to
BE- mistaken that l didn't say anything. While
he was explaining that gorilla can kill a MAJ
with one blow OF his paw, thought felt him
IN another pocket, but didn't want to hurt his
feelings, and so overlooked it. He informed
me that ostrcheS could maintain a speed of
twenty five miles hour for ten hours on a
stretch, and at the same time seemed
to be searching my watch-pockst
might have appeared somewhat agitated,
but didn't give him to understand
in words that was surprised at his conduct
He seemed to have lost heart little when he
started in to explain that the crocodes of
Africa sometimes attain the length of thirty
feet and can swallow barrel of cider at one
gulp, and sought to cheer him up by saying:
I've got one more pocket you haven't had
your hand into and there's a handkerchief in il
while delivering your lecture on the hvena-
found i'll profusion of India-seldom attacks
mau-supposed to dig mp the dead, and so
forth. 50
And what did he do but get mad and threaten
10 lick me and turn me out of DOORS | told him
that was sorry that | had to come dead broke
and that he had wasted half an hour of his
valuable time for nothing, and that would have
ut least 80 cents for him the next time called
hut he was obdurate, and had to bid him fare
well and go.

Denying the authenticity of that pur-
ported interview with him In New York
was scarcely a necessary thing for Editor
Scott Ray to dc. 1t showed the palpab.e
''fake" all over it in spots. Yet the editor of
the Shelbyville Democrat should not escribe
its origin to motives really worse than what
prompted it. 1t was probably not done to
prejudice the presidential prospects of the
Indiana governor-nor any one else. More
likely it was simply the result of a vivid
Imagination attached to some New York
''space man" who had fine appetite and
wanted good salable sensation to help him
sustain the same. Nor should the Indiana
gentleman attach undue Importance to
himself or Gov. Gray. That ready-made
interview was directed solely at Gov. Hill
simply because a Hill talk sells better
in Gotham than the veiws of both of the
Hoosier gentlemen put together. Despite
all their grand fourishes they are alb
surdly provincial in New York.

The South Bound Nearly Finished.

The South Bound Nearly Finished
In a very short time trains will be run
ming regularly on the South Bound rail-
road. Comparatively little more WORK
remains to be done upon the road, and that
little will be completed within few weeks.
The road. which extends from Savannah
TO Columbia. S c., and is l4S miles
in length, hss been built in remarkably
short time. And it is substantially built.
The best materials have been used in its
construction. Those who built it meant
that IL should stand the test Of time. 1t
will be years before the cost for repairs will
be noticeably large.
The road will be Of vast benefit 70 Ssvau-
nah. Il will be a great factor in her pros
peritv. Running as it does through rich
agricultural counties for the greater part Of
its length, It will increase immensely the
volume OF her commerce. It Is really
another outlet for Savannah northward,
and there is not much doubt that it will be
extended south ward to Florida in the near
future.
Savannah is under obligations to the
projectors ami builders Of the South Bound.
Nearly all Of them are Savannah men, who
are proud Of Savannah and who have con-
fdence in her future. Their confidence is
shown by their works They are enter
prising men, and enterprises like the South
Bound are what build up towns and de-
vsiop the country.
The opening Of the South Bound to traffic
should be suitably celebrated. The i'm
portance Of the occasion Will justify big
ce.ebration-One in which Savannah and
Columbia and all the counties tributary 70
the new road should participate. Let the
opening be made a memorable event 1t
will be worthy of such distinction.

Tearing to pieces an old piano stool that
had belonged to Swedish housekeeper Of a
Minnesota hotel disclosed to Executor E. A.
Goedtzen 3d. 900 in gold therein concealed
How a woman occupying so humble a
station in a small hotel at Winona should
have accumulated in thirty years so much
money, beside the Sl2 900 the executor had
already distributed to heirs and the cost of
her own living, is not matter of so much
Importance to the world as the conspicuous
honesty of that executor in turning over to
the estate money that no one but himself
knew of and which he could SO easily have
kept, since he had been discharged after the
completion of his task. Such instances of
scrupulous honesty are gratifying to see
and give us better opinion of humanity.

All this skylarkng that Citizen George
Francis Train has been doing by webbing
around the world so silently within sixty
two days time, was done to advertise a
Washington town. 1t Is very doubtful if
the town got 500 worth of advertising out
of the whole enterprise. 1t has been a trifle
oVerworked. If that town wants TO adver-
tise by an established method it had better
stick to the newspapers. They give more
for the money. Lest many people may never
have heard of this particular town it were
as well to tell them that it is called What
com. Before long it will be wondering
what came of all that money invested
through Train.

Navajo Indians in Arizona still appear to
be feeling more or less wicked. 1t is all be-
cause the Navajos have been imposed upon
by the cattle herders until they will not
stand it any longer. Ordinarily there is no
more peaceable and friendly tribe than the
Navajos. But when the white men con-
tinue to monopolize their lands without so
much as asking permission and undertake
to bully the Indians when they have singly
protested. their anger and consequent
united uprising is not at all surprising.
1t seems to be perfectly justihable- Give
the Indian a decent chance and anything
akin to fair treatment. and he is not 80 bad
a man as he has been pictured. But swat
him suddenly aoaft of the ear and he imme-
diately grows bilious.

Farmers of the western alliances are said
to be locking up grain to prevent speoula-
ton upon it. At all events that is the
reason they assign for shutting it cut of
sight. This demonstrates the difference in
the point of view different people take
When city spectators particularly desire to
speculate they do exactly what the farmers
have done. They lock up all the grain
they can get. No doubt but they feel
greatly indebted to the farmers for saving
them the expense of locking it up them
selves But If that was not their custom
what is TO hinder them from specializing
upon it, They could speculate very violently
upon the result of the lookup. Nothing
would better suit their purpose. Evidently
those innocent grangers think that specus
lators must have the grain to lug around
with them. On the contrary many of
them never saw any of it in their lives
Before these farmers open their grain
it will probably have been sold hundred
times over.
