To Stop Gold Exports.

Last week several OF the big banks of
New York took steps to obstruct the ex-
porting OF gold to Europe in SO far as it lay
in their power. The bankers concluded
that gold expectations have reached a
point beyond which it is not to the interest
of the country they should go. Under the
system which had been followed the ex-
porters secured their gold by procuring
gold certificates Of their banks. These GER
tihcates we're taken TO the sub-treasury
where the precious metal was obtained in
exchange for them. Under their new plan
the bankers will refuse to pay out gold GER
tifcates to exporters, but will tender in
stead United States notes and treasury
notes, which, they say. are paya-

the Chase National Bank, charaoterizes this
action on the part OF the bankers as a patri-
otto movement, as it is intended 20 preserve
the integrity of the free gold" held in the
treasury, that is, gold above the amount re-
quired to redeem the outstanding gold Ger
tifcates and guarantee treasury notes. On
July 9 the free gold in the treasury
amounted to $1 .07l ,257, but, with the
shipments during the week just past, it was
estimated that on the 10th the stock of free
gold. would have shrunk to $l0,000.00

Some Marriage Stories.

a working parson, whose experiences have
been gathered in large town parishes, tells in
the CornhiH some amusing stories. chiefly re-
lating to the wedding ceremony. Once it was
his lot to be embarrassed by the appeals of two
Young women who wanted to marry the same
bridegroom. The first conner OF these had
scarcely told bow her faithless lover had
actually put up the bans in the East End
parish, when the delinquent turned up with
an Idiot grin on his face and a gayly-
appareled young woman on his arm What
could the parson-then a young and bashful
curate-do but invite the trio into the vastry
room, there to discuss the business Luckily
for him, IL speedily leaked out that there had
been no legal residence in his parish, which
afforded him at once sufficient ground for de-
Ginning to perform the ceremony. On another
occasion the awful discovery was made that
the bride bad by accident been described in the
marriage license by her pet name 1t was sug-
gested that an affidavit of identity sworn at a
nelghoor1ng police court might repair the
bunder his was done just IN time to complete
the ceremony within canonical hours but the
accommodating clergyman afterward received
stern admonlshment from high quarters mot
to do 1t again" Another case was that of an
elderly widower, who was so dull and stupid
that it was very difficult to marry him When
told to give his right hand he gave his left;
when the minister said, Say this after

after me-" But when the words he was to re-

The Force Bill Danger.

| II the Republican party is successful In
electlns majority Of the House and its
\ candidate for President, it will do It's utmost
to pass force bill. II suoh bill should
become law the south would be overrun
'by United States deputy marshals. who
would be more Objectionable TO southern
| people than Pinkerton's men are 90 the
workmen at Homestead. These deputy
marshsls, appointed by republican ad-
| miniserstion, would endeavor to take charge
! Of the ballot box and control elections. 1t
! is easy to see that the people would not
submit to such condition Of affairs with
out vigorous protest. The result would be
that there would be disturbances Of grave
character, and that the prosperity Of the
south would be greatly retarded.
Democrats who are supporting the third
party do not seem 20 realize that in sup
porting that party they are indirectly COM
tributing to republican success. They may
draw away from the Democratic party
enough votes to permit the Republican party
to carry the election. No man with any
prominence outside of the third party
admits that the third party ticket can be
elected. All that that party can do in
the south is 20 draw votes from
the Democratic party. While it is not
probable that it will carry a single southern
state, still there is a chance that it may. II
it should carry two or three southern states
it would in all probability defeat the demo-
cratic ticket and republican, instead of a
democrat, would be inaugurated as Presi-
dent II Gen. Harrison should be reelected
and should have the support Of both branches
of congress force bill would be enacted in
short order.
With such danger staring them in the
face it is difficult TO see how southern men
who have been democrats can give their
support to the Peoples party. They GER
tainly cannot have a true conception OF
what the condition Of affairs In the south
would be if a force bill should be enacted
The wise thing for them to do, IL they
want to see their section Of the country
prosperous, is to stand by the Democratic
party and help 1t defeat the Republican
party. If they refuse to do 80, they may
have abundant cause for regretting their
mistake.
The republican papers are trying to be-
little the force bill issue. 1t is good policy
for shem to do So But southern men
should not permit themselves to be de-
ceived. The force bill plank in the ma
tional republican platform speaks for itself.
If Andrew Carnegie had been asked dozen
years ago IL he would under any circum-
stances oppose the workmen in his mills, If
be should have differences with them, with
Pinkertons men he would have answered
in the negative, probably, in a very en-
phstic manner. He has employed them,
however. and the Republican party will
have an army of deputy marshals in the
force bill.

wna. Cleveland's Injection Means.

What Cleveland's Election Means.
1t would be a. valuable and interesting adj
dition 70 contemporary political history il
some one would gather and compile the
statistics OF strikes, riots, lynchings and
other violent disturbances Of the public
peace during the administrations of Grover
Cleveland aud Benjamin Harrison. I'm
doubtedly Mr.. Cleveland's would be found
as clear Of such troubles as the other Is full
| OF them.
The difference Is not, of course, due to the
influence Of the characters of the men, but
TO the working out OF the principles Of the
political parties which they represent. The
Democratic party's principles teach the
Strengthening of state and local govern
ments by allowing the people TO manage
their own affairs. The Republican psrty's
principles teach just the opposite, that is,
taking the power out of the hands Of the
people and centralizing it in the national
government. Under the Republican party
the people are taught to look to the federal
government for everything and to the local
government for nothing. The United States
courts are the tribunes to which republicans
point the seeker after justice, and United
States deputy marshals exercise the func-
tions of state constables. The natural re-
suit is supineness on the part of the people
in the enforcement Of the laws of the states.
A return TO democratic principles and
practices would restore the governing power
TO the governed-the only proper repository
Of such power under our form Of govern
ment. And, the authority returned to
proper hands, a wholesome respect for the
law, represented by local governments,
would be engsndered, and the troubles that
have agitated the country for three years
would cease
Grover Clevelsnd's election would mean
a return to such principles of government,
and consequent domestic peace; the cleo
ton of his opponent would mean continu-
ance Of the present state Of affairs.

Georgia Tomatoes for Europe.

The canning OF Georgia tomatoes for ex-
port to England would be profitable en-
terprise. Hundreds Of tons Of tomatoes are
annually exported from the Canary islands
to Great Britain; but for the past several
months the tomato plants in the islands
have been attacked by disease, the result
being that the product has been unfit for
shipment The disease is not local, but ex-
tends all over the islands All efforts to
check 1t have proved unavailing and pro-
ducers anticipate the loss of next years
crop as we'll as the larger part of the crop
OF this year.
In view Of this state of affairs, the
National ProviSioner sees no reason why
American tomatoes should not take the
place OF the Canary islands product. And,
with steamship lines from Georgia ports to
England, the MORNING NEWS sees no reason
why Georgia tomatoes should not constitute
a goodly portion of the American products.
There are no finer tomatoes raised anywhere
than in Georgia; anybody can grow them ;
they will thrive anywhere; 1t does not take
skilled labor to pack them; canning plant
does not cost great deal, and direct lines
from here to Europe would put freights at
a rate that would probably leave good
margin of profit to the packer.
Direct trade steamers from Brunswick, as
has been announced, will begin regular
trips in September, and line from this city
appears to be assured. With this much in
view, it would be worth the while Of truck
producers and dealers to look into the to-
mato exporting business

Carnegie on Trades Unions.

My experience has been that trades unions
upon the whole, are beneficial both to labor and
capital. They certainly educate the working
man and give him truer conception of the re-
lations OF capital and labor than he could other
wise form. The ablest and best workmen event.
ualy come to the front in these organizations
and 1t may be laid down as a rule that the more
intelligent the workman the fewer the contests
with employers. l have noticed that the man.
ager who confers oftenest with q committee of
his leading men has the least trouble with his
workmeu. /, therefore, recognize in trades
unions, in organizations of the men who select
representatives TO speak for them, q means not
of further embittering the relations between
employer and employed, but Of improving
them.
