The ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Question.

The views Of Representative Fleming on
the reapportionmeut question appear to be
sound. That question should be left for the
action Of a constitutional convention. As
pointed cut, the. legislature has the power
to reapportion the senators. but not the
members of the House; but neither the num-
Der Of the senatorial districts, nor the num-
her Of senator from each district can be
changed by that body. With such a re-
stricton there is little TO be gained by re-
apportionment Of the senator's by legisla-
tive oct.
constitutional amendment, changing
the auportionment Of the House or the
Senate, or both, would, in all probability,
be defeated, because it would be met by the
cry that it was an effort to strengthen the
ciIesI IA the legislature at the expense Of the
country.
1t is true that the inequality between
country and city representation is now very
great. But the cities Will have to submit TO
the injustice of the inequality until con-
stitutional convention provides for a fair
reapportlonment. 1t might be said that if
the country districts would defeat con
bbaAt4tLRAlAi pL Wv AAAlAlk AbA q AA
reapportionment they would defeat ne"
constitution containing such provision.
The argument has some force, but is not
conclusive There would be many other
matters in a new constitution and these
would help to carry the reapporttonment
provision, and besides, the discussion which
d new constitution would receive, together
with the approval Of a convention, would
command for it the respect of the people.
In any reapporuonmeutt the effortshould be
to keep the number Of mem 0ers Of the House
and Senate within the present limit. The
number ought to be reduced, if possible.
There is not much danger Of reducing the
number to such an extent that the interests
Of any particular section would suffer. As
long as there are no inequalities in the
representation the people VIII not complaja
at the reduction of the number Of repre-
seutatives and senators, because reduction
would be followed by a decrease in the
burden Of tGXntiOn,

The State Fair a Success.

Just before the opening Of the
state fair a report was circulated TO
the effect thai the third party
farmers would boycott II, because they did
not think they had been treated fairly by
democrats in the state election. There is a
great deal Of satisfaction in the fact that
the report was without substantial founda-
ton. The farmers OF Gsoreis are too broad
minded 10 permit politics TO interfere with
their material interests.
The fair is one Of the most successful aud
one Of the most beneficial to the farmers
that has been held since the State Agricult-
ural Society was organized. NoJwithstaud
Ing the hard times that have prevailed for a
yesr or two throughout the state the farm
ers have responded literally to the demands
Of the fair, and the result Is superb exhibits
IN about every department. The displays
Of farm products aud live stock are es-
pecially fine.
The truth is the farmers OF g eorgia are
not 50 badly OFF as some of the reports that
have found their way into print would lead
the public to believe. They have suffered
somewhat, of course. from the low price OF
cotton, but during the last year or two they
have diversified their crops to much
greater extent than ever before, and the
consequence is they are in a fairly prosper
Gus condition.
1t is q source Of profound regret that the
state is TO have no exhibit at the Colum bian
tnir. That fair is going to exceed any
thing OF the kind ever before seen, ana
Georgians who attend it will be conscious
of n shock to their pride when they see
what other states have done, aud are IN
able to find auy evidence that Georgia has
| an existence.
People from all the world will be at the
fair, a d the reports that will be sent from
there Of the products and resources of the
states that have exhibits will be o. almost
incalcujable benefit to those states. They
viii influence home-seekers and capital.
They will add thousands to their populations
and millions Of dollars t their wealth. II
Georgia could have such an exhibit al the
Columbian fair os she has at her own state
fair her people would have no cause to feel
any shock 10 their pride on her account.
Can't the legislature suggest some method
by which Georgia, the Empire state OF the
south, can make an exhibit OF her wealth Of
resources and products at the fair

Manager Frick, of the Carnegie Iron and
Steel Association, will have general super
vision Of the distribution OF it, and that he
will be ad vised by Senator Quay and Dave
Martin. In New York state alone over
$500, coo were spent, it is alleged. in getting
men to register who are depended upon to
vote the republican ticket, aud it is under
stood that 100000 more has been placed in
the hands of the campaign managers for
use on election day
There are signs. however, that the "boo-
die" will not 90 the republicans as much

the state thoughtful republicans are won
dering what such a wholesale corruption of
voters Will eventually lead to, and they are
seriously considering the ACCESSIBILITY of
rebukinZ their party for its corcuptlng
practices by refusing TO give it their sup
port. The increasing signs OF discomfort
among this class Of republicans are causing
considerable uneasiness among the campaign
managers, and are the reason why such
vigorous denials Of the amount of the

A couple of weeks ago the republican
managers were not very confident OF sue
cess. l bat they were not is shown by the
fact that Senator Quay, who is known to
be hostile TO Gen. Harrison, was induced to
take charge OF the campaign. Since SEN
ator Quay has been in command aud vast
campaign fund has been raised there is a
more hopeful feeling at the campaign head
quarters in New York. This hopeful feel
ing is due to the belief that money spent
under the direction of Senator Quay will
give the republicans the victory. To buy
the election seems to be the republican pro-
grGmme now.

A Question cf N-ages

Some Of the republican organs sheer Mt
the position taken by the New ork Herald
that if the purpose Of the high pr.tectionisss
in this country to close the mills and furn
| aces of England is successful We shall be
overU helmed with English cheap labor, and
that wages, through competition, will fall
much below what they are at present, but
the sheer is without reason. There is a good
deal OF truth in what tho Herald says.
Suppose the McGluleyites should succeed
in carrying out their programme. What
would become of the millions of Englaud's
skilled wo, kmen' There is no country in
Europe to which they could go with any
hope of lettering their condition. They
would naturally come to this country. I'M
migration has already had the effect Of
lowering wages here, but what it has done
is nothing to what it would DO
in the event of the closing of the
mills and furnaces in England. Thus far
there has been comparatIS ely few skilled
workmen among the immigrants. who, for
the most part, have been simply common
laborers. but just as soon as skilled laborers
would find it to their advantage to come
here they would come.
II they should come in vast numbers how
would it be possible to keep up wages? By
means of trades upions2 Organizations of
that kind would soon go to pieces under the
pressure of great competition. Every work
man would feel 1t his right and duty to look
out for himself. When the Chinese threat
ened to overrun the country and work for
wages which appeared to the native labor
ers to be simply rutnous, congress was
compelled by the force of public sentiment
to close our ports to Chinese immigration.
Does Mr.. Mckinley and other republican
leaders intend also to shut our ports to
skilled workmen from Europe if any CON
siderable numoer of them should show a
disposition to come herel II not, how do
they propose to project American workmen
| against the cheap skilled lebor of Europel
The leading protectionists are constantly
asserting that the main purpose of high
| protective tariff is to keep up the wages of
| American workmen. but while they insist
| upon an excessively high tariff they have
never taken any steps to prevent the low
ering of wages which results from COMPETE
ton of immigrants. This COMPETE
! ton they have invited, although
! they have never had any
doubt about the effect of it upon wages. 1t
looks. therefore, as if they were pursuing a
policy wholly for their own benefit. They
depend upon the high protective tariff to
protect themselves from competition anu
| upon immigration to enable them to get
cheap labor
Although the Republican party has been
in power almost continuously since it was
formed it has taken no steps whatever &c
protect the skilled workmen of this country
from the skilled workmea of other coun.
tries. Does not this look as if there was al
understanding among the republican manu-.
facturers and trusts to profit not only by the
protective system. but also by the reduction
in the wages of workmen by competition
1t certainly does.

After the election, ne thinks, is time enough

The fact that search is being made for some

tion that the republican bosses are not so

monotone: And the family shoes range from

Despite the appeals Of Blaine, Egaa Reid
and others to the prejudiceS of Irish~Ameri-
can voters, Irishmen who are demo-
Gratis remain true to their party while
many leading freshmen who have hereto
fore been republicans are renouncing repub-
licanIsm and declaring for the candidate who
represents local self-government for the
American states. Among such Irishmen to
declare for Cleveland in the past few DAYS
is John P, Sutton, one of the best known of
his countrymen in America, who was for
many years secretary of the Irish National
e'gus. The Republican party, he says.
has entered a mercenary era, in which it
legislates for the benefit of the party and
not for the country at large. The repub-
licans' claim that a vote for Cleveland is a
vote in favor of England as against Ireland,
