Savannah's Future.

The prospects for a prosperous future for
Savannah are more promising now than ct
any other time in her history. There is
every reason for thinking that her growth
will be rapid and steady. That her people
have confidence in her is shown by the
prices at which her real estate is held and
the number Of buildings that are being
erected.
The election of Mr.. Cleveland and the
feeling that the Democratic party will have
control Of the government for many years
has greatly strengthened confidence in the
S )uth, and as soon Rs Mr.. Cleveland is in
sugurated, and even before, there will be a
noticeable increase in the amount OF money
invested in southern enterprises and in the
movement OF immigrants TO the southern
states.
Savannah will have her full share Of the
prosperity which the south is certain 10
have. Being the most important seaport
IN the South Atlantic coast she cannot help
attracting attention. Her advantages for
commei ce and manufacturing are so great
that there is no danger that they will be
overlooked. Each year the volume of her
business will be larger and the number OF
her industries greater
What she should have is the earnest and
active cooperation Of her people in her be-
half. She is getting it to a greater extent than
ever before. but there is still room for effort
having for its object the advancement OF
her interests The work on the project to
give her 26-foot channel iu her haroor has
begun, and she will have two or three
more important railroads within the next
year or two. The territory from which she
draws the greater part Of her business is
improving all the time. and the volume of
its business therefore increasing.
Savannah is not disappointing her people.
On the contrary, she is giving them adj
ditional reasons to have confidence in her.
Those who have had confidence in her dur
ing the last four or five years have no re-
grets, and those who continue to have con-
fidence will make no mistake.

A Railroad INSPECTOR.

From present appearances 1t will not be
long before the owners OF the railroads in
this state will have nothing to say in respect
to the management Of their properties. The
state is gradually taking charge Of the
roads. The railroad commission now makes
the traffic rates, and 1t is proposed that it
shall have the right TO determine whether
or not one railroad may lease another or
acquire a controlling interest in Another's
stock. A bill is also pending that provides
for the appointment OF railroad inspector,
whose duty it shall be TO inspect each road
in the state at least once year, and draw a
salary OF So, 900 year from the railroads.
If appointed he will probably have author
ity to say what improvements shall be
made, when they shall be made. and whether
the material used In making them shall be
Of the best quality or not
In view OF the fact that majority OF the
roads Of the state are now in the hands OF
receivers, would it not be advisable to APP
point commission 70 find out whether 1t
would not be good policy to wait awhile
before placing any more burdens on rail-
roads, and to devise some method for getting
such information with regard to them and
their business as would enable the legis-
lature to guard the interests of the roads
and the peoplel Haphazard legislation,
suggested by those who have no Knowledge
OF the railroads, and who are guided by what
they themselves want, can hardly fail to be
injurious to all interests.

A Movement to Did Kansas.

It looks very much as If strong effort
would be made during the approaching ses-
sion Of congress to make two states out Of
Kansas. The republican leaders of the
western part of the state have formed an
organization to accomplish that object
The reason they give for desiring a new
state formed out Of the western counties is
that the populists, who are now in the major
ity, threaten to ruin the state. Laws they
have already passed and Others which they
propose TO pass are causing eastern capital
lists to refuse TO loan any more money in the
state and to withdraw that,which they have
loaned there. The farmers in the western
counties are very much afraid that by the
foreclosure Of mortgages they will lose their
farms for which they have been working
for years 10 pay.
In the recent election the western coun-
ties. the ones included in the proposed new
state, gave a republican majority of over
5000. 1t is believed by those who are advo-
eating the formation Of a new state that
they would remain republican. They GER
tainly would not give the populist party a
majority. They might become democratic.
ho A0hAoCA 0A9s ~ 10 u4uoiebOOus AdfOE kho
scheme Of dividing the state.
The populist party objects, of course, to
the division. 1t does not believe that the
interests OF tue farmers are likely to be in
jured by laws it may pass. The popuIists
cannot be made to see that they have al
ready done the state almost incalculable
damage. They assert that the farmers Of
the eastern counties favor their doctrines,
and that no better evidence is needed to
justify them In the course they are pursu-
ing.
As a matter Of fact all the larger towns
are in the eastern counties and most of
the farmers in those counties have their
farms paid for. The farmers of the east
ern counties, therefore. are not in such need
of money as those OF the western counties.
It seems strange there should be such
decided protest against the populist party
by farmers The populst orators all
through the recent campaign pretended to
be the great friend OF the farmers. Asa
matter of fact the farmers could hardly
have a more dangerous enemy.
1t is not probable that Kansas will be
divided into two states. but the movement
to divide it indicates clearly that the pop
ulist party is not as strong as it has been
thought to be-even in the state In which it
is she strongest

The comet has got the .erudite brother
hood Of astronomers terribly puzzled.
Hardly two OF them are ablc to express
parallel opinions concerning the mysterious
estray in the heavens. Profs. Elkins, of the
Yale observatory, and Boss, Of the Dudley
observatory at Albany, say it is not the
Bela comet, aud is moving away from the
earth as fast as a comet can travel. Prof.
Coakley, of the University of New York
says it is Biela's comet, that it is coming
traight toward us and will get here on Nov.
q, when the earth will pass through its tail.
Prof Swift, Of the Warner observatory, say
Biela's comet never had a tail, or anything
worth calling a tail, and that the thing now
in the sky cannot hurt anything down here,
as the earth's atmosphere will act as a cush-
ion aud protect us. Prof. Wiggiugs SAYS
the comet can hurt the earth, and may do
it, by causing such deluge as hss not oc-
CURED since the days Of Noah. Prof. Col
bert, of Rochester, thinks an earthquake
may be caused by the near approach OF the
celestial visitor, but Prof Swift says nothing
Of the kind will happen. In the midst of
such diverse ana conflicting opinions from
the wise ones, ali that a layman can do is to
wait aud see what happens. In the mean
time the layman may console himself with
the thought that the astronomers do not
know much more about what the comet is
gong TO do than he knows.

a Song Of Thanksgiving.

Clinton ScolIard in the ladies' Home JoIrno
Thanksgiving! Thanksgiving OF yore.
In the youth of the nation,
When the harvest had yielded its store
There was feast and oblation.
Or when danger had lifted its hand
From the lips of the living
There rang through the length of the land
Thanksgiving! THANKSGIVING
Our home was a wilderness then
With the floods to enfold it;
To-day with its millions of men,
We rejoice to behold it.
From the sea to the surge Of the sea
We have all for a treasure;
We are blessed in the promise to.be
In a manifold measure.
War fiaunts not a red pennon now,
For the olive is regal;
Like birds that are twin, on one bough
Sit the dove and the eagle
The clash Of the conflict that cleft
We in sorrow remember.
But the fire of the great fuel has left
In the ash scarce an ember.
For the fruit of the time of our toll;
For whater we have fought for;
Whether born OF the brain or the soil
Be the need we have sought for;
For the gifts we have rad from his hand
Who is Lord of all living,
Let there ring through the length of the land
Thanksgiving! Thanksgiving!

Tipped tbe Arohduke Joseph.

1t is not often nowadays that a parsonage

UatlVe and repellant humanity, that it seldom
comes into personal contact with the hornv-
named sons Oftoil. 8 a rule, however when
it does the results are interesting. A cass in
point, well worthy of record, has recently oc-
Cured in Austria. The hero of the story was
the Archtuke Joseph, who has himself related
1t in the following words: II was strolling about
the park at Alesuth q few days ago, reading
Father Kneipps book on the water cure when
all of sudden, l was startled out of my refIec.

Old peasant jumping up and down on
the edge of the path. AS soon as he saw that

dendron bushes, into which she had strayed
from his keeping. 1T will be a bad Job for me :
he exclaimed, If the head gardener sees h. r y
stopped down and remained on the watch for
few seconds until l was enabled TO seize hold
OF the offending fowl, which forthwith handed
over to its owner. In proof of his gratitude the
old man put 20 kreutzer piece into my hand
begging me not to mention the matter to the
head gardener" 1t would be interesting to
learn whether or not his imperial highness kent
the coin bestowed upon him by the poor Old
man, in absolute ignorance of his exalted rank
The penny piece, duly pierced and suspended
to his watch chain, might aptly serve to remind
reflective archduke of the only Job for which
IN all proba bility, he ever received payment at
the hands of q social inferior.

Thanksgiving Day.

The Puritan, who gave US Thanksgiving
day, also bequeathed lot of straight-laced
observances to 60 along with 1t. The day
we keep. the ceremonies we have discarded
and In their places we have set up customs
more IN harmony with the spirit of the age
In the old days Thanksgiving was wholly a
religious day. But of late 1t has become as
much Of a popular as religious holiday.
Religious services are, of course, feature
Of the day, but they do not monopolize the
time now as Of yore. After church services
of an hours length the modern observer of
Thanksgiving devotes the remainder of the
time TO home, friends and the turkey.
Thanksgiving is a day for happiness, glee.
merriment; for burying animosities and re-
newing friendships; for lively music and
dancing feet; for gratitude to God and be-
nevolence to men; for dreams Of the past
and hopes and best wishes for the future
for happy reunions and tables loaded with
plenty. AS such Thanksgiving is every
year becoming more and more a day of the
people. 1t is one of the few holidays that is
not declining in popular observance In the
beginning it was a grim and solemn day
observed by a community; now it is a day
of pleasure and rejoicing observed by a
nation. Long may it grow In popularity
Its lessons. rightly learned, broaden the
mind and ennoble the heart.

authority" that Chairman Harrity would
not accept position in MIR. Cleveland's
cabinet; not because be does not desire or
would not appreciate the honor, but be-
cause of financial considerations. Harrity
is a poor man. He has made no money out
of his political achievements, and cannot
afford to give up his present prospect of
winning competency to accept official
honors. As be is young man yet it is said
he prefers to devote himself to business for
some time; then he may try his hand at
