aside his party spirit for the good Of his
country Is a bold partisan, but he
will never make an American patriot
The man Tho debauches the suffrage by
purchasing votes by bribery and corrupt
| means may be q good politician, but he
will never be patriot.
he next spoke Of how little interest each
citizen took In public affairs, and asked who
I was responsible. As for himself he did not
believe In the dual character. A good son
would make a good man, and consequently
a good citizen. The contrary is
/ citizenship should be taught and thoroughly
| inculcated In the home aud then this in
! difference to public affairs would cease and
patriotism of the highest order would be
the rule rather than the exception. In oon-
clusion he answered the question as TO who
was responsible, in the words of the prophet
Nathan to the Jewish king, Thou art the
man.

THE LETTERS.
Responses to invitations we're received
from prominent men ia different portions of
the country. regretting their inability 10 be
present upon the occasion. A brief note
from the executive mansion stated that
President Harrison regretted that
other engagements prevented his
acceptance of the kind invitation.
Similar replies were read from Vice Presi-

The inability of Maj. Peter W. Meldrim
to be present and respond to the toast the
city Of Savannah" on account OF serious
illness in his family, was greatly regretted
by all present, and the more so because
they felt the regret would DO equally as
great upon his part. His place was ably
filed by Capt. d. g. Purse, notwithstand-
ing an utter lack of preparation.

A 2O-Year-Old Debt Paid a Savann


A 2o-Year-Old Debt Paid a Savannah
Firm.
Many stories have been written and told
of scrupulously honest people who have paid
debts of many years standing which have
passed out OF the minds Of creditors, but
the most extraordinary case probably on
record was reported yesterday to the MORN
ING NEWS.
1t is nothing less than the payment Of 25
cents, with interest, which has been due
former Savannah firm for twenty years.
The honest debtor sent the money, amount
ing to 81 fnclosed in an undated and un-
signed letter. The letter verbatim is as fol-
lows:
Messrs. Christopher Gray d Son, Savannah,
Ga:

would be the interest. Turn this into the proper
hands and Oblige ---. l would give you
the particulars and my name, but it would look
like was counting q complimentary notice, and
am not worth such a noJice.
Mr.. Chris Gray, Jr. says he has no idea
who the party is, but judges from the writ
ing thab the person who owed the firm such
a trivial sum Is a man. II any other case

BAD A CRUSHING EFFECT.

The Third Party's Defeat and the
Carolina Populists.
The crushing defeat OF the third party
In Georgia has had a very depressing effect
upon their brethren across the river In
South Carolina aud when the votes are
counted in November hardly . corporaPs
guard will have responded to the summons
OF the leaders TO come out and save the
state. That is the opinion of a prominent
Caroliniau who was In the city yesterday
and who has exceptional ad-
vantages for forming correct conclusion.
He said the recent address and electoral
ticket which were put out contained no
names OF any prominence in the state in
any profession recalling and, that with one
or two exceptions, none Of them had ever
been heard of until the ticket was au-
nounced.
Had the party in Georgia been successful,
it would have given powerful impetus to
the movement In Carolina, but now it
really amounts to nothing and creates no
more excitement in political circles than
the Republican party, which in that state is
numerically, morally and intellectually so
small as to be almost microscopical.
