A New Departure.

The Associated Press seems to have made
a new departure recently with respect TO
the character of some Of the matter it dis
tributes A few weeks ago its Atlanta
agent sent out extracts from a letter written
by Columbus (Ga.) gentleman in the in-
terest Of Senator Hill. An excuse for dis
tributing the letter through the Associated
Press would be difficult to find. particularly
as the letter had been published before it was
handled by the Associated Press Thursday
night an editorial from the Constitution was
sent out from Atlanta. IL the Associated
Press is going to distribute editorial articles
that are intended to influence the action OF
congress on public measures its service must
be greatly enlarged or its news service must
necessarily suffer, because there are two
sides to most questions, and one side Is as
much entitled to hearing as the other.
The purpose of the Constitutions article
was to induce the House to take up the
Bland bill again and pass IL. That paper has
been devoting much Of its editorial space for
many months to articles favoring the free
coinage Of silver, and it naturally feels sore
at the defeat of the Bland bill, but
the condition of its feelings is not a sutfi-
cient excuse for the Associated Press to give
its patrons matter that they do not want
and have no use for.

An Executive Session Leak. g"

Senator Frye Is, or was, great stickler for
She lnviolabiiity Of executive session secrets
says the Washington Post. When Stanley
Matthews name was sent In by President Hayes
for justice of the United states supreme court,
Mr.. Frye was one of those who declared that he
would not vote for his confirmation. Finally
when vote was reached Matthews was con
flrmed by Just one vote. There was great curl
osity to know how each senator had voted
The boys figured out how each republican had
voted, except Frye. They were unable to place
him. To go to him and ask him directly
how he had voted would only be to
meet with rebuff. 1t was necessary in this
case to have recourse to strategy. A CORE
spondent, who was on close personal terms
with Senator Frye. accordingly undertook the
task of surprising the senator's secret. He went
up to the senator and remarked in the most
casual manner
We'll, Frye, you're fine man; now, aren't
your"
whats the natter" inquired the senator in
his sharpest tones.
why, thought you told me you would not
vote for Matthews conflrmation?"
well, ] didn't vote for him :" was the indig
nant reply.
Thank you senator; that was all wanted to
know" replied the newspaper man coolly, walk
ing off.

silver in the Senate.

There Is prospect Of a somewhat lengthy
discussion of the silver question In the
Senate. Senator Morgan has introduced
resolutions requiring the finance committee
to inquire and report as to the effect Of the
silver law of 1890 on the price of silver bull
lion, and Senator Stewart has given notice
that he will call up his silver bill next Mon
day. Senator Morgan said it was his pur-
pose to get free expression of
the views OF senators on the silver
question, and also as 60 the cause OF the
present low prices of cotton and other agri-
cultural products. The members of the
House have put themselves on record rela-
tive to the free coinage Of silver and it
looks now as II the senators would have a
chance to do so.
There is no probability. however, that a
free coinage bill will be passed by the
Senate. A change has taken place
in the the views of number
of senators on the silver question within
the last year. And there are democrat c
senators who, though favoring free silver
coinage, think it would not be wise for the
Democratic party 60 take position at this
time in favor of the free coinage of silver.
| II it should do so it would, they think, lose
all the doubtful eastern states, and, there's
fore, lose the presidency.
1t is not probable that the Bland bill will
come up iu the House again this session.
The refusal OF a large number Of demo-
Gratis who voted for the bill to sign petit
| ton for a closure rule shows that many
| democrats are satisfied with the record they
have made in favor Of the bill and are of
the opinion that it would do the Democratic
party harm to pass the bill While, there
fore, there may be good deal more talk
| about silver this session there will be no
| silver legislation.

The Drayton-Borrows Scandal.

AO IL 1H bO1~OOEI OGdhOaA~
The newspaper reporters have finally dis
covered how the correspondence between
Mr.. Drsyton and Mr.. Borrowe, growing
out Of the challenge sent by the former TO
the latter, got into the newspapers. When
Mr.. Borrowe and his second, Mr. Mlbauk,
arrived in New York, they pretended to b g
totally in the dark as to how the oorre-
pondence got into print. Mr. Borrowe
wanted IL distinctly understood that he had
not authorized its publication, and there
was talk about holding somebody RESPONSE
BILE for breaking faith. eto. 1t turns out,
however, that Mr.. Fox. who was one of
Mr.. Borrowers seconds, gave the letters to
| the public, and he says be was authorized to
do so by Mr.. Borrowe. His statement is
that he had an understanding with Mr..
Borrowe that the letters should be published
just as soon as there were indications the
scandal had leaked out.
The Hon. Thomas Porterhouse Ochiltree,
who seems to get himself mixed up in all
tie pieces of the scandal had cropped out in
number of places, and, IN order not to keep
the letters until they would not to create
a sensation, decided to get them into print
as soon as possible. Mr.. Borrowe, there
fore, is really responsible for the publicity
given the letters He appears to be cold
blooded youth. who thought more of pro-
| tecting himself against the charge of coward
| ice than in shielding the woman whose
| name was mixed up in the affair. It Is
! probable that he does not find New York
as pleasant a place as he did before he be-
| came TIE subject of 50 much notoriety.

Reports Of the Georgia Pacific train rob-
berry near Birmingham Wednesday night
do not say that the trains crew made any
attempt to defend their train and protect
their passengers. They were terrified by
the masks and the shooting, and left the
robbers to work their own sweet will. 1t
may have been the most natural thing in
the world for the trainmen to throw up
their hands and stand quaking before the
marauders; but in these days of train rob-
beries conductors and brakemen are ex-
pected to do the unnatural thing and show
fight. A little pluck goes a long ways
toward disarming a villain, as was shown in
the case OF Perry, who attempted to rob a
New York Central train. 1t will be re-
membered that in that instance the express
messenger refused to obey the robbers
orders, and the conductor and brakemen
began making plans to capture the fellow
as soon as they learned that he was aboard,
and were finally successful. The express
messenger ran the risk of his life. IL is true,
but he won, and is the most famous express
messenger in the United States to-day. But
in the Georgia Pacific robbery the only
member of the trains crew mentioned as
Directing to the robbery was Mail Clerk
Hughes, who Offered" resistance, but a
shot through whose clothing" quieted him.

The Republican Division on silver.

fTOm INC buItn1OTe sun VDeN.J
Senator Stewart crepubhcan) has notified the
Senate of his intention TO call up his free silver
coinage bill next Monday This rather discon-
certs the strategisi rs of his party who have been
recently calling the attention of the country
exclusively to the leaning of a portion of the
Democratic party toward free coinage. 1--WE, -
said these strateeists, ARE the sound money
party, one and undivided, but the democrats
are ali for free silver But Senator Stewards
proposal calls puibllc notice ITO the fact that it
was the republican Senate which, in 1890,
passed an out-alad-out free coinage bill, just
like the Bland bill recently defeated in the
democratic House What is more. there Is still
q strong contin gent Of senators who believe in
free coinage, alad may. perhaps, be able to pass
the Stewart bill, Whether the Senate passes
it or not. the country will see that the Repub-
hcan party Is dj vided on the silver question.

A Pittsburg man announces the perfec-
ton of an invention that will make him a
fortune, if he can put his theory in practice.
He has an instrument wherewith dense fogs
are to be annihilated. Electricity is the
agent employed, in the character Of a dis
charge without decoration. The mode of
operation is yet kept profound secret, and
will remain so until experiments have been
made in New York harbor. The promoter
of the invention says that with the instru'
ment ocean steamships will be able to dis
pense wide areas of thick mists at each
electric discharge, and by q succession Of
discharges be able TO sail in unolouded seal
at all times. The value Of such an invention
cannot be estimated.

Fow a Bore Was Gotten Rid or.

Alexander h. H. Stuart, who lately died at
Staunton, Va. used to tell the following story
OF how he got rid of an office-seeker soon after
assuming the office of Secretary of the Interior
under President Fillmore: 81 was very much
annoyed by persistent applicant for the post
of messenger. The man came in regularly every
day for several weeks, until be became an I'M
bearable bore. Finally, one day after the man
had gone out, I asked the messenger then in
office il he knew what that man was after He
said: No, sir Well saidI, he wants your
place, and if l ever see him again he shall have
it l never saw the man again"

1t appears that there are in Atlanta some
of those undesirable aud unpatriotic per-

have more regard for the column rates they
are paid for the 'stories" they send out

commonwealth in which they live. In a

special from Atlanta which so perverted
truth as to make it appear that In Burke

as was alleged to have existed in the days OF
"Ku-kluxism"-tha negroes are whipped

TIE PUBLIC SCHOOLS SHALL WE
HAVE THE TOWN SYSTEM?

This state has within its borders
eighty three thousand young persons
of school age. Nearly three quarters
of million dollars (S743 ,548) was
spent on the common schools last
year. Can there be more important
subject before our legislators than the
training of these eighty thousand
young minds? From the purely mate
rial and economical point of view, can
there be a more important question
than how this large amount of money
can best be spent to accomplish the
most for the public welfare?
The school district system has had
a strong hold on the taxpayers. 1t
was not the original system The
first constitution of Vermont provided
that the school teachers should be
paid by the towns, and for thirty
wears. from 1897 to 1927, town sys-
tenn was in force, under which board
of trustees with the selectmen ap-
pointed and removed the teachers,
controlled the schools, and accounted
to the town. For few years be-
