The Story OF Maben and others.

The statements which Messrs. Maben,
! Clyde and Goodby, the three men who
are the compliments In the bill upon which
Judge Bond of Richmond appointed re-
ceivers for the Richmond and Danville,
disclose q condition Of affairs In
that road that IS not at all credita-
BILE to some Of the directors of the
Richmond and Danville, who are also
directors Of the Richmond Terminal. Ac-
cording to their statements the Richmond
and Danville has not been earning for quite
long time the dividend which
it has been paying, and it has been loaded
with debts Of one kind and another to get
the money needed to pay the interest on
the bonds of the Richmond Terminal And
about the same policy was pursued by the
Richmond Terminal with respect to the
Central
The whole effort of these directors seems
to have been to keep the interest on the
Richmond Terminal securities paid even if
they had to wreck the Georgia Central and
the Richmond aud Dsnville to do it. II
what Messrs. Maben, Clyde and Goodby
say is true the only parties benefited by this
wrecking policy were certain directors of
the Richmond Terminal, who are also
directors of the Richmond and Danville.
The Richmond and Danville people say
they took the step they did because they
wanted the Richmond and Danville in
friendly hands. The truth probably is that
they we're afraid that if receiver was
appointed by Judge Speer all the facts re-
lating to the use to which the money
obtained by burdening the Richmond and
Danville and the Georgia Central with
debts would be brought to light.
But cannot these facts be obtained for the
public even though the Richmond and Dan
vile Is in the hands of friendly receiversa
1t would be interesting, certainly, to know
what was done with all the money that was
obtained by selling and pledging bonds of
the Georgia Central. There ought to be
some way TO get an explanation of the
statement of Messers Maben. Clyde and
Goodby, that the Georgia Central and the
Richmond and Danville were mismanaged
IN the interest of certain men who are
directors OF both the Richmond Terminal
and the Richmond and Danville.
There has been undoubtedly good deal
Of hostile railroad legislation and attempted
hostile railroad legislation, in Georgia
within the last few years, but nobody is de-
ceived by the attempt OF the Richmond and
Danville people to make it appear that all
the troubles of the Richmond and Danville
road come from that source. The cause Of
the greater part Of the trouble is pointed
out by Messrs. Maben. Clyde and Goodby
in the assertion they make to the effect that
great railroad systems controlled by the
Richmond Terminal were managed 80 as to
benefit certain Of the Richmond Terminal
directors.

Hill's Silver Letter

Senator Hill seems to have an idea that 1t
is good politics to try and fool the people.
One reason why he is so weak at Chicago is
that he is insincere, and the reason that Mr..
Cleveland is 30 strong is that he is thor
oughly honest and sincere.
Within the last day or two a letter relat-
i've to silver, written by Senator Hill to
Charles K. Holiday, Jr., of Topeka, Kan,
has been made public. Holiday is just the
sort Of a man that Senator Hill is. He be-
heves In trying to hoodwink the people,
In his letter Senator Hill tries to give the
impress sion that he is in favor of the free
coinage OF silver without saying so directly.
He says that to restore free bimetallic
coinage safely, wisely and firmly is the
mission Of the Democratic party, and he
intimates that if he should be nominated
and elected President he would not veto
free silver coinage bill.
This letter was written last December.
and has been made public at this time for
the purpose of gaining the support of the
silver men at the Chicago convention. 1t
will fail of its purpose. The silver men I'M
derstand him thoroughly. He has had
many opportunities to say whether or not
he favors the free coinage of silver and he
has not taken advantage Of them.
Not very long ago, when a vote was
being taken on the question of considering
at once Senator Stewards silver blll-a
vote that was regarded as showing how the
senators stood on the silver question-Sen-
ator Hill made such haste to get out Of the
Senate chamber that the Senate galleries
and even grave senators were convulsed
with laughter. He was afraid to take a
position either for or against the
free coinage Of silver. Is it probable
that man who lodges the silver question
in the Senate can make the national con-
vention of his party believe by means of a
letter addressed to private citizen that he
has any convictions with respect to that
| question: Senator Hills silver letter will
not give his boom boost.

A Silly Charge.

The Hill men at Chicago are trying to
make capital against Mr.. Cleveland by
asserting that he is being doomed by ex-
office holders who hope to get back into
Office. Was there ever so silly charge as
this} It shows to what desperate straits
the opponents Of Mr.. Cleveland are put for
reasons with which to oppose him.
As a matter of fact there are very few
ex-office holders working for Mr.. Cleve~
land. Some Of his managers held office
under his administration, but they are all
80 we'll fixed now that there is no good
reason for saying they are influenced by a
hope of getting office. Mr., Whitney, Mr..
Fairchild and Don NJ. Dickinson are not O
the officeseeking kind, though il Mr..
Cleveland should become President
again and offer them acceptable places they
might take them. But all OF them are rich
and each OF them Is earning more than the
salary of any Office in the gift Of the gov
eminent. They are not banking after
offices.
But how about the men who are booming
Senator Hill! Pretty nearly all of his man.
ayers are office holders. Croker and Shee-
han and the whole OF the Tammany off CO
holding crowd are at his back. II he should
become President Tammany would claim
about all the offices in his gift. The Hill
men made a great mistake when they
started the cry that ex>of1ce holders are the
main hackers Of Mr.. Cleveland. The peo-
pie are his hackers.

A North State Political Story.

Col Bill Williams of Greenville, N. c., tells
scrap of 1914 history which revives an incident
of the Polk campaign. One Of the most
famous political rallies ever held in Elizabethton
was at white heat that day. DR.. Williams of
Greenville, who seems to have imported the
story from North Carolina, told Brownlow how
the grandfather of Polk. tory in revolutionary
days, had escaped the wrath of the colonists
ard had saved his life on one occasion by pre-
cipltate flight, in the course of which he was
forced to swim mill pond, The owner of the
mill pond was man by the name of Ramsower,
and Ramsower's mill pond was an opprobrious
epithet, which was hurled against the Polk
party in the campaign of 1874.
This battle cry received its seven
league boots at Ehzabethton and Brownlow
was its godfather. At the big rally at Elizabeth
ton the Ramsower mill pond incident was
dramatised and acted before the multitude IN
a highly edifying manner. Some one of the
Jealous wings present on the occasion was
dressed up so as to represent q tory. Then he
was turned loose with a bowling mob of
mountaineers at his heels, shooting and yelling.
Straight for Poe river sped the flying tory, and
plunging into the stream saved himself by
swimming to the opposite bank. Thus was the
swimming of Ramsowers mill pond by the
earlier Polk illustrated for the edification OF the
whig meeting After this Brownlow gave the
incident wide publicity in his paper and
throughout the nation went the story of Ram
sewers mill pond

In this language the syllable 'ba" pronounced
with grave accent, means lady an ancestor.
Pronounced with the sharp accent, it means

semi-grave accent. it means what has been
thrown away. Pronounced with the grave cir

Seven er der kids has started for de worl's

the thought of the departure of the first party
OF tourists for the great Columbian exposition

boys who started for the Windy city last night.

The Norwood and Vamoose, the fancy
steam racing yachts, owned by Mr.. Munro
and Mr.. Hurst, of New York, have proved
by their repeated failure TO get off in q race
that yachts constructed as they are, are
worse than useless for any other purpose
than racing; and it must be under the most
favorable circumstances OF wind and
weather that they are any good for even
that. They are only tender sunnyday
playthings for millionaires. liable at any
time to lose for their owners a modest
fortune by going to the bottom or being
blown out of the water as a result of the
slightest error on the part OF the men hand

There is something unpleasant IN the
recent utterances of leaders of the dominant
element in South Carolina politics. Some
time ago Senator Irby declared that the
nomination of Cleveland would cause the
party to receive a bad shaking-up, or words
to that effect. On last Saturday, in Au-
gusta, DR.. j. w. Stokes, president of the
state alliance and a delegate to Chicago,
said: "If Cleveland is nominated there will
be steps taken toward putting out third
party electors in nv state within twenty
four hours after the convention ad-
journs. l know what l am
talking about and mean what l say" In
Chicago day before yesterday Gov Till
man, who is chairman OF the delegation.
said that the delegates could not go back
to South Carolina If they aided in the
Cleveland movement" This declaration of
Tillman's is SANDER upon the people of
South Carolina aud is not worthy of notice.
But the fact that Irby, chairman Of the
party, and Stokes, the head of the alliance,
should be predicting a bolt-or what will
| virtually be a bolt-ahead of the action
of the convention would seem to
favor, the opinion that they have already
determined upon boiling in case they cannot
have their own way at Chicago. There is
no questioning the fact that if a split in the
South Carolina democracy comes about as
result of the nomination Of Mr.. Cleveland,
it will be at the instigation of Tillman, Irby,
! Congressman Shell, DR.. Stokes and W. J =.
! Talbert, who control the farmers alliance
and the dominant element in politics. The
anti-Tillman democrats all favor Cleveland;
it would be nonsense to talk OF their bolt
ing. The pro-Tillman democrats favor Till
mans choice and will vote just as he and his
cabal direct. But how can Tillman and his
followers bolt the ticket If Mr.. Cleveland is
nominated without being guilty of bad
faitha The democratic convention OF South
Carolina declared its purpose to stand by
the ticket whoever the nominees might be.
1t can be pretty safely stated, therefore, that
Tilman and Irby are simply talking for
effect.
