1t seems more difficult for northern peo-
pie to wipe out the color line than for the
southern people to do so. At any rate,
more is heard of tie color line in northern
cities than in southern cities. IL may be
that each race fully understands that in the
south there is not, nor can there be, any
such thing as social equality, while in
northern cities the colored man expects to
sit at table or in the white mans parlor
with white people and receive the same con-
sideration that is shown to them. Had the
G. A. r. encampment been held in a south
ern city instead of Washington, William
johnson (colored) would not have endeav-
ored to obtain food In place where only
white people are served, because he would
have known that public sentiment, IL not
the law, was against it, and he would have
respected public sentiment and common
usage,

The Direct Trade Movement

The promoters Of the scheme to establish
direct trade between one or more South
Atlantic ports and Europe are beginning to
talk confidently Of success. They have re-
ceived encouragement on every hand, and
have had offers of assistance from unex-,
pected sources. The East Tennessee, Vir-
GINA aud Georgia railroad system has ex-
pressed a willingness to cooperate in making
a guarantee for a certain amount OF business
to any line that may be established, and
the Florida roads have stretched out help
ing hand. The outlook for direct trade,
therefore, is much brighter than 1t was a
month ago. Earnest and persistent work
has accomplished what has thus far been
done, and the same kind of work
will accomplish a great deal more
1t would be great thing for Savannah
to have a regular line OF steamers to Liver
pool-two steamers a month, for instance,
to start with. Such line would advertise
her all over the world. And there could be
no better time for starting such line
than the coming year-the year of the
great fair at Chicago. Thousands of Eu-
ropeans will visit the fair, and why
shouldn't many of them come and go by
way Of Savannah Most of them would like
to see something Of the south, the
source of their cotton supply, and
why shouldn't they land at or sail from q
southern porte
| What is needed to establish line Of
steamers is guarantee OF a certain amount
Of business. Railroads terminating at Sa.
vanneh and western railroads connecting
with them could give such a guarantee
without running much OF risk Why not
get the presidents of the interested roads
together SO they could talk the matter over
A talk of that sort might result in what is

The Florida Election.

The state election in Florida Is close at
hand. Only three more days remain for
campaign work. Next Tuesday is the day
of the election. There is no doubt that the
democrats will carry the state by a hand
some majority.
The third party has been very active and
is still so. 1t is not nearly as strong, how
ever, as its leaders pretend it is. The noise
it has been making has alarmed some OF
the democrats, but without good reason.
AS matter of fact, unless the
republicans give it great deal
of help it will not make much of a show
ing. 1t is the policy of the republicans to
give it a hearty support, but they do not
seem to be very deeply interested,
1t would be a great misfortune for Flor
Ida to fall into the hands of the third party
with the help Of the republicans, because
that would mean return to republican
rule. The Republican party would come
! forward at the next state election as the
real opponent of the Democratic party, and
the third party would disappear.
The third partyites deny, Of course, that
such would be the fate of their party. and
they may be sincere in their denial, but
If they will look at the political situation
carefully they will see they are mistaken.
! The Republican party is a great party,
| while the third party has only just come
into existence, and is based on no principle
which justifes a hope that it will grow or
| even live.
The fight OF the democrats in Florida
therefore, though ostensibly against the
third party, is really against the Republican
party. They should leave no effort untried
to make their majority next Tuesday as
large as it was at the last state election.

Was there ever a more reckless AMI un'
iusIifable charge than that mad

mer, against Gov. Northen, in the matte
of Gen. Weaver's treatment at Macon
There Is absolutely no excuse for it. Mr.
Irwin holds Gov. Northen responsible fol
what took place at Macon, aud intimate
that a word from him would have brough
about condition of affairs that would
have enabled Gen. Weaver 10 meet al Of
his appointments in Georgia.
In the first place there we're no such dis
turbances at any OF the places visited by
Gen. Weaver as would have JUST
fed the interference of Gov NorIhen.
That Mr.. Irwin knows very well. AT Al
bany there was disposition shown TO ask
Gen. Weaver questions about bis military
record. At Macon an egg was thrown al
him. The boy who threw the egg was az
once arrested, it has been stated. In Iact'

At Atlanta Gov. Northen went out Of his
vav 70 insure Gen. Weaver a respectful
hearing. He attended the meeting in the
capitol aud secured a promise that
there should be no demonstration that
would be unpleasant to Gen. Weaver.
He received no thanks for his
trouble. His efforts in Gen. Weavers
behalf were not even appreciated. For
doing what he was under no obligation to
do he has received only abuse. He GER
tainly does not feel that he has been derelict
in his duty, and fair-minded men through
out the state do not think he has.
Gen. Weaver retreated from Georgia be-
cause he saw he could accomplish nothing
by filling the remainder of his appoint
ments. And ii reports are correct
he was not well pleased with the
that the committee OF
the Peoples party had made for him. In
stead of arranging for him to speak where
the Peoples party is strong it sent him into
democratic strongholds. II the truth were
known it would appear probably that Gen.
Weaver has a grievance against Mr.. Irwin
and his committee rather than against Gov.
Northen. Perhaps that is the secret of Mr..

A man of nerve;
No fear had power to check his course,
Or make him swerve.
Once when within burning house
Ten souls were held.
He saved them all, and then alone
The fire quelled.
Twice had he plunged within the main,
This hero brave,
His own life risking, that he might
Another save.
Thrice on the awful battle field.
With carnage rife,
He'd stormed the terror-stricken foe,
And won the strife.
But now he's filed with dismal dread
That turns him white;
He sinks away from human gaze,
He shuns the light.
Alas he's tortured with fear
He cannot speak
He's got to wear his old straw hat
Another week.
