FREE EDUCATION.
Democracy Has Given the Blacks Mill
lions for Schools.

governor Nortnen gives these
facts with regard to education:
Under the Republican regime in
Georgia, the negroes were given no
facilities and mo opportunities tor
education. Atund for educational
purposes had accumulated in the
treasury, but this was seized upon
by the Republicans and used to pay
! members of the Legislature their
per diem OF SO per day; and the
schools did not get cent.
The Democrats, on getting back
into power, Immediately restored
the fund, and kaveSbeen steadily in
creasing it every year, until int1891,
(the last year for which we, have
comp etc igures) it reached 81, 125,-
600. This fund is raised partly by
taxation. partly by fees of inspection
Of fertilizers, rental OF the State
railroad, etc. A direct assessment
of l1-3 mills is levied on all property
for school purposes, which raises
100000. The white people of the
State own s434, 100000 OF property !;
the negroes own sl4,300,000. The
negroes pay tax Tor school purposes
in the amount of only SIG, 900; while
the white pay, on the direct assess.
ment, s481,000. The rest of the
fund, now being raised by rental,
ETC., as have said, would have to
be raised by direct taxation, if these
properties and fees of the State we're
not in existence, 50 that it may be
stated briefly that the negroes pay
for school purposes $4,000 yearly
into the school treasury, while the
whites pay s1,106,000.
How is the fund distributed, as
between whites and blacks? The
school attendance among the ne>
groes is about 40 per cent. as COM
pared withusthe white attendance.
The negroes Beceiye aho aepsr
cent. of tie entire fund Of SLIPS
600. The whites, having 60 per
cent. of the fund. In other words,
the negroes pay taxes for school
purposes in the sum. of $4,000, and
receive for school purposes from the
State the sum of s450,000.
The school facilities afforded both
races are exactly, the same, the only
difference being that the white peo-
pie practically support the schools
for both.
With regard to the opportunities
for acquiring property: In 1878
the negroes owned s5,124,898 of
property in this State. Under
Democratic administration of affairs
they have been given such opportu-
mites for acquiring homes and other
property, that they now own s14,-
100000; an increase of $685. 25
in thirteen years.

The New York Tribune devotes a
column of space to showing how
firearms, especially pistols, have
been cheapened by the Mckinley
law. Without considering for a
moment whether they have been
cheapened or not, it may be stated
emphatically that clothes, blankets,
plows and other necessaries of lie,
and farming utensils are the things
the people want cheapened. They
do not care two straws whether pis-
tolls cost more or less. One. cannot
eat pistols or dress in them.

BY the way. where did that term Mugwump
come from any way {? and what does II mean?
The latest edition of Webster's unabridged
US9l) defines "Mugwump" as bolter from
the Republican party in tho presidential cleo
tion of 1884 An editorial article in the New
York Tribune for February l6, 1877, has the
following sentence.
Listen John A. Logan is the head
Centre. the Hub. the King Pin, the Main
Spring. Mogul and MugMump of the final
plot by which partisansbip was instituted IN
the commission
The word MugMump seems to have been
coined by the writer of the above for the oc-
cnsion. Is not tins the origin and start Of
Mugwump TIM TnrEs.
We beg pardon of THE TIMES. but if its
question is asked in good faith we take the
liberty of answering it AS follows
''Mugwump (mus-wump) q. and q. (Algon-
kin Mugquomp. a great man. chief captain,
leader. Used in EliOt's translation of the
Bible (166i) TO render the f. terms. captain,

ed.
We call our neighbours attention to the fact
that in quoting our remark on the Tribune's
editorial it has made us use the word Mug
wump where we used the word MugMump
We said MugMump was evidently coined by
the Tribune writer for his occasion, and We
suggested the inquiry whether this Mug
Mump was not the origin of the word Mug
wump We have not Eliots translation of
the Bible at hand, and would not know from
the above reference TO it where to look in the
same for the word Mugwump if it were at
hand And we have not SO much faith in
anything whatever coming from the Century
that we are willing to accept its unsupported
dictnm as the law of any case. Besides the
use We make of the word Mugwump bears
no sort of relation to the idea great man. "
chief" leader" captain" duke" &C.
We intend by it rather to describe a sort of
doctrinaire amateur politician, whether great
or small. who has heretofore had decidedly
Republican leanings and connections. So
come again. Mr.. Dispatch. We don't accept
Eliot or the Century either.
